In the Name of the Queen

Sif didn't know that someone was talking about her behind her back.

Even if she knew, she wouldn't care.

She was only worried about being discovered by the people in the valley. Others would know if they knew, but she didn't care.

When she sneaked into the valley and saw Roland and Robert talking from afar, she was completely stunned.

Oh no, didn't she kill the wrong person?

Roland was in a hurry to shake people just after negotiating with someone. What's going on?

Although Sif was a little flustered, her hiding action did not change.

She saw Alina standing not far from Roland, and she suddenly had an idea and found the most suitable place for ambush at the entrance of the valley to hide.

The passive racial ability of the elves can fade away in the night.

As long as they don't take the initiative, it's hard to be discovered.

Sif is not an elf, but her extraordinary profession gives her some elf characteristics.

It's impossible to be completely invisible in the dark, but as long as you hide well, you will hardly be discovered.

The person has been killed, so there is no way to kill the wrong person.

Besides, there is no evidence after death. As long as you don't admit it, it means that she was bitten to death by a passing tiger or pecked to death by a flying eagle. It's always not her.

She killed the witnesses very cleanly, and it was fate that discovered this.

Besides, even if discovered, what would happen?

As long as Roland and the stranger reached an agreement, the death of a few guards would not change anything, at most they would make more concessions.

If Roland and him failed to negotiate, then he would be killed as well!

After thinking it through, Sif's heartbeat gradually calmed down, and there was no longer any emotional fluctuation.

She was waiting for the result of the negotiation between Roland and Robert.

This was not a simple negotiation.

Roland asked about the refugees' well-being and expressed his concern.

Robert knew it was nonsense, but it was normal to warm up and test before the negotiation, so he didn't think much about it.

He quietly waited for Roland to talk nonsense.

If he had the ability to talk all night, he had plenty of patience.

He had patience, but Roland didn't have much patience.

Did Sif sleep too deeply?

Or did she take off the induction pendant and put it on the bedside?

Come to think of it, who knew he would come out and play hard to get in the middle of the night? He didn't tell me before he left, who would wear a pendant to sleep when they have nothing to do? Wouldn't it be uncomfortable?

Roland guessed half right.

Sif really wouldn't wear a pendant to sleep, with one exception.

That wasn't a pendant, but a receiver that Roland used to call for help, which couldn't be taken off.

Since Sif wasn't coming, then we wouldn't wait, and we'd have to show our cards!

Roland made a decision silently, looked at Robert and said with a sigh:

"I have heard Alina mention the deeds of her father, Mr. Carlo, many times, and I admire him very much. Unfortunately, fate is unpredictable and I will never have the opportunity to talk with him."

"Fortunately, I met his most respected disciple today. I am lucky to see some of the old man's style in you."

"Mr. Roland, Mr. Carlo and I are completely different. There is no need to compare us."

Robert didn't want to continue talking nonsense, and said coldly:

"Mr. Carlo is a wise man, full of love for the world, but this scholar's romantic temperament hurt him. If he listened to me and put those dangerous How can there be any future if all political enemies are killed? "

"Mr. Roland, I have a different working style from him. I am very realistic. There are a total of 37,550 people in the wanderer camp. I am responsible for their future."

"Indeed, the governor's district under your jurisdiction is very close to here, and shipping is also very convenient. You have also prepared a ready-made camp for us to settle down. I am very grateful."

"But I cannot accept your way of settling us. Why don't you support us in forming an exile government in Hansa?"

"Do you think we can coexist with the current pseudo-government of Jin Yuan? I must avenge Mr. Carlo and tens of thousands of victims!"

Their future? It's your future!

Alina, who was on guard at the periphery, couldn't help but scold in her heart.

She was very disappointed with Robert.

He was still using these wanderers as resources to negotiate a deal with Roland.

He pretended to avenge his father and other victims, but in fact he was just pretending.

As long as he gave enough benefits, Robert would dare to sell anyone.

Faced with Robert's high-profile statement, Roland also spoke generously.

"We agree on this point. But I oppose the immediate establishment of a government in exile, which will put you in the spotlight."

"Maybe you are right. We can postpone the establishment of a government in exile, although this will temporarily make us lose our appeal." Robert pondered for a moment and accepted Roland's suggestion.

Seeing Robert give in slightly, Roland continued to move closer.

"Mr. Robert, since you mentioned appeal, why don't you acknowledge Alina's appeal? She is Mr. Carlo's only surviving child, and her appeal must be stronger than others."

Robert was stunned for a moment, revealing a hint of mockery.

"Mr. Roland, this is how you Sussex people think. In the Kingdom of Golden Kite, bloodline is not important. I am the teacher's most respected disciple, and only I can represent him."

"To be frank, Miss Alina did not inherit the teacher's excellent qualities except for bloodline. Who would obey her as a leader?"

Robert did not care about Alina's mood and continued to make up for it, "If Miss Alina really wants to avenge her father, she should support me instead of seeking fame and power."

"When I went through so many hardships in the country to bring these people out, where was Miss Alina?"

Alina's face was very ugly, but she did not speak.

She knew that the negotiations would inevitably break down, she just didn't know what Roland was waiting for.

Are you waiting for the dawn?

At dawn, they won't be able to frame the werewolves raised by the Golden Kite Kingdom.

Although she was puzzled, Alina still didn't speak. She chose to believe Roland.

Just when Robert was a little impatient, Roland finally made concessions.

"Okay, Mr. Robert, what you said makes sense. I have another question. If you can give me a satisfactory answer, I will accept all your conditions."

"All conditions?"

Robert was a little surprised.

His conditions were quite harsh. Roland could even accept this?

The first condition was to allocate suitable land for them to live in and establish a settlement area that would not be disturbed by outsiders.

This condition was the basic condition, and any force that was willing to accept it could accept it.

It was not surprising that Roland agreed to this.

The second condition was that the wanderers governed themselves, abided by the laws of the Sussex Kingdom, did not accept the dispatch and transfer of officials, but could provide technical services to Roland and exchange rewards for work.

The third condition was to establish an exile government when the conditions were suitable. In return, the administrative personnel among the wanderers could work for Roland first.

The fourth condition is that the exiled government can leave on its own at the right time, and they will ally with Roland after regaining power.

If Roland agrees to these four points, this team of wanderers will become Robert's subordinates, not Roland's resources.

Although Roland can get a lot of talents, Robert still feels strange.

In short, this is a condition that is very favorable to him but not very favorable to Roland.

He is a little curious, what does Roland want to know?

Is it the secret of the coup?

Roland stared into Robert's eyes and calmly asked an explosive question, "How much benefit did you get by betraying Mr. Carlo?"

Robert's pupils, which were calm, suddenly shrank.

He panicked.

Roland shouted: "Do it!"

He pulled out his pistol, with two guns in his hands, and fired directly.

Robert, who was caught off guard, dodged subconsciously and luckily avoided a bullet, but the other one hit his neck accurately.

Alchemical bombs and smoke bombs exploded instantly, turning the battlefield into chaos.

Alina appeared behind Robert like lightning, with a scimitar like a moon, going straight to the vital point.

Her eyes were red, as red as blood.

Roland's question deceived the truth, Robert betrayed his father.

She finally understood why her father, who had a high degree of control over the political arena, was killed by political enemies, and even his family was wiped out.

She also suspected that there was a traitor at the time, and even suspected Robert, who was indifferent and not human.

But Robert and the current government of Jin Yuan had fierce conflicts many times, and many people on both sides were killed and injured. She really couldn't doubt it.

In her mind, Robert was her father's most respected disciple. Her father knew him very well and should not have misjudged him.

At most, he just didn't see Robert's selfishness and indifference clearly, and he would never keep the traitor around.

Now it seems that her father really misjudged him.

Alina suddenly shuddered, and she remembered the letter her father wrote to her a few days ago.

Her father euphemistically mentioned that he wanted her to recruit a marriage partner who was willing to marry into the family and had no family background.

He also mentioned in the letter that there was already a suitable candidate she was familiar with.

At that time, Alina was curious about who her father had chosen, but now she completely understood.

Her father was deceived by Robert's superb acting skills and decided to keep the wealth within the family and let his most respected disciple become his son-in-law.

Her father has always been in control of everything, and his long-term success has gradually cultivated his subtle arrogance.

Marrying into a family can make it a top family in the country and marry a beautiful bride. According to common sense, it can make a poor boy without a family background grateful.

But Robert is not a simple person. Her father really made a mistake.

Alina knows her father. He is committed to integrating the advantages of higher intelligent life and evolving the best new humans through long-term intermarriage.

And Robert is the excellent alien he is optimistic about.

In order to promote evolution, he even let his daughter marry an alien.

He is really too idealistic.

Although the association is complicated, it only flashed through Alina's mind for a moment.

Alina's move became more ruthless.

She never thought about getting married, nor did she think there was any harbor that could accommodate her wandering heart.

She even wanted to be single for life.

Compared with a political marriage, she hopes to break through on the road to becoming stronger.

Even if she really gets married, she will make marriage a resting place for love, not a hotbed for the exchange of stinking interests.

Her father was wrong, very wrong!

She wants to make up for this mistake with her own hands.

She fired.

Her shooting skills are better than Roland's. Although the pistol is a single shot, it is more powerful.

Robert, who was hit in the back accurately, fell down hard.

Just as Alina was holding a long knife and preparing to give Robert a fatal blow, Robert, who was lying on the ground, suddenly let out a creepy grin.

Robert, who was shot twice in a row, rolled over continuously and stood up again.

"Stupid human, this kind of thing is only worthy of being a toy, and you want to use it to kill people?"

Robert's black pupils turned bloody red, the fingertips of both hands became particularly sharp, and the fangs slowly extended from his lips. The wound that had just been hit by the bullet also stopped bleeding and recovered as before.

He stuck out his tongue, licked his lips, and looked at Alina with a sneer, "Alina, your father has agreed that you will be my wife, in exchange for me inheriting his surname."

"I agree, but only after I tame you."

"As for this idiot who is in the way, his body will be the bed where we will enjoy bliss on our wedding night!"

Accompanied by shouting, Robert pounced on Roland like lightning.

Vampire? !

Roland looked solemn.

As the return day approached, the mysterious power hidden in the darkness gradually emerged.

Vampires, a legendary creature, look exactly like humans, but their body temperature is lower.

But humans also have subspecies with lower body temperature, and people don't suspect them.

Vampires are divided into two major schools: vegetarian and blood-eating.

Vegetarian vampires are not really vegetarian, but they suck animal blood. The blood-eating school is a vampire that directly sucks human blood.

It is said that the blood of intelligent life is sweeter, so blood-eating is the final form of vampires.

Vegetarian vampires just don't have the conditions.

Once they have the chance, they will also eat blood.

Robert is basically immune to pistol and sword damage. Facing Roland and Alina, he is not panicked at all even though he is fighting two people alone.

Until Roland opened his collar and took out the holy image of the goddess of abundance from inside.

Robert's face changed drastically, and he screamed: "You are a devout believer, how is it possible?!"

Roland smiled but said nothing.

People with devout faith usually have clear eyes, are extremely confident, and their faith gradually increases, and finally they become people recognized by the goddess. Faith in gods can change people's temperament and even change their fate.

Although devout believers carry holy images with them, they don't need these things to prove themselves.

Roland has no faith, so he needs this thing to prove his position.

Faith in the goddess is really good, and this is it.

Vampires hate holy images and are afraid of holy light.

The light of the goddess of abundance's image almost blinded his eyes.

Robert was a little panicked. The holy image in Roland's hand was definitely a genuine product infused with holy water, and this kind of holy image was sold at a very high price.

Who the hell would spend a lot of money to buy this thing if not a believer?

Although he was furious, Robert knew that he could not hurt Roland who was wearing the holy image, and he was firmly in an invincible position, so he began to retreat.

The gunshots rang out, but the guards outside the valley did not move at all. It was obvious that something unexpected had happened.

People who like to control the overall situation hate accidents the most.

Robert was the same.

He stepped hard, and his body turned into a ball of blood mist, and appeared directly at the entrance of the valley.

"Roland, Alina, goodbye! I will take these people back to my hometown, the Kingdom of Wallachia, and none of you can get any of them, MUHAHAHA!"

Although embarrassed, Robert was not fatally injured, so he was naturally arrogant.

Roland would certainly not let him go.

He grabbed the holy elephant in his hand and threw it hard, hitting the blood mist accurately.

Robert screamed and revealed his true form.

His face was covered in blood, and his eyes were full of panic.

He never dreamed that someone would dare to throw the goddess's holy elephant as a weapon.

Except for Roland, a nonbeliever with no faith.

Robert was seriously injured, but he had a backup plan.

He bit his tongue hard, spurted out a large mouthful of blood, and his speed suddenly increased, and he had rushed to the entrance of the valley.

Just as they were about to leave, a dazzling light appeared in the dark night.

"In the name of the goddess, purify the filth in front of you!"

Sif opened her arms, and her whole body was shrouded in soft sacred light.

Roland is Roland, and she is her.

Roland has no faith, but that doesn't mean she is not pious.

She is a pure believer who has been blessed by holy water at the age of twelve.

Her clear eyes are proof of her piety.

Damn vampire, go to hell!

Holy light descended, and screams rang out.

Robert turned into a pool of dirty blood in endless fear and was completely purified.
