Chapter 26: Ryza's Ambition

After leaving the sacrifice room, Ellie confirmed that this room, which was called the sacrifice room by other believers, was actually Rand's bedroom and there was no sign that there was a place for sacrifice.

There was something strange about this cult den, except for the bloody smell I smelled yesterday, which was more consistent with the image of a cult den.

To everyone else, it looks like a relatively vibrant human village.

The villagers were not like the cultists one imagined, either mumbling to themselves or plotting evil plans.

The villagers in this den are either farming, cutting wood, or raising livestock.

All Ellie could say was that the disguise was very convincing.

When they walked a little further and returned to the room they had arranged yesterday, Olena looked at Ellie worriedly and said, "Let's go back, Ellie. It's too dangerous here. There's a weird atmosphere everywhere."

Ellie said helplessly: "Oleanna, you don't think I am controlled by that Rand."

Olenna certainly didn't think so, but she still suspected that she was too affected by what happened last night. After all, Ellie was still young and might become addicted to that kind of thing, which was very dangerous. It was very likely that if she stayed here for too long, Ellie's life would go on a distorted path.

This is something Olena absolutely cannot accept.

"No, Ellie, I just think that there is no need for us to cooperate with them. After we go back, we just need to forget about this matter, and everything that happened here will be in the past. After all, as long as we pretend not to remember, the envoy will not release the video."

"Then we've come here for nothing, right?" Ellie sat on the edge of the bed. The sheets had been torn up, leaving only the bare bed board.

"We walked such a long way from the capital to here, and then wandered around in the mountains for five or six days, and in the end that bastard recorded that incident."

"The price has been paid, why can't we charge some interest?" Ellie said. Anyway, he can't do anything to us now.

"Aren't you afraid that he will really..." Olenna said worriedly.

"So what?" Ellie said, "If sister doesn't have a weapon, those disgusting monsters won't give up."

Ellie tugged at her collar and said, "For this, even if I really have to lose something, I'm willing to do it."

Olenna looked at Ellie worriedly, fearing that she was just saying this and had actually been seduced by the evil messenger of God, but she couldn't think of a practical solution.

For the first time, she felt that the supreme strength she was so proud of was so powerless.

Force was useless, and her identity had been used up and became meaningless. Now she seemed no different from an ordinary, weak woman who was powerless.

Even her life experience and wisdom are not as good as Ellie, who is younger than her.

Dongdong——

There’s a knock on the door.

After getting permission, Lisa walked in.

Olenna and Ellie both blushed a little at the elf who had watched them last night.

"Voluntary labor, are you interested?" Lisa asked.

"What does Rand mean?"

"No, what I mean is that you don't need to be too prejudiced against this place. Whether it is a cult or not is still defined by humans."

Olenna is the top swordsman, an agile duelist who uses a swift sword, Ellie is a top warlock, and Lysa is a top ranger.

If we add the heavy-armored knight Taner, it would actually be a very complete team of adventurers. If it were in another fantasy game world, it could actually be called a legendary team of adventurers.

If such a team is lucky, they may be able to complete an epic story that will be sung by bards, such as slaying a dragon, defeating the devil, or saving a princess.

But this time, what Lysa invited Olenna and Ellie to do was a reconnaissance mission. Although Rand didn't say it, Lysa had already felt his desire for the Baron of this land.

A smart ranger should know how to detect the terrain in advance and plan the route.

There just so happens that there are two idle people with good abilities here.

Lisa said, "If you agree, I can introduce you to the scenery of the den."

Ellie sneered disdainfully, but didn't say much: "Okay, as long as you don't do anything disgusting."

Lisa knew that there were still many misunderstandings between the two sides, but since these two were willing to stay, the misunderstandings would be resolved sooner or later.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

They are just a group of people trying to survive in this world.

To be honest, she was still looking forward to seeing what the smart Rand could achieve. In her eyes, this mentally abnormal and unkempt messenger of God had no apparent combat power except for his abnormal abilities that he came from nowhere.

But, he must be qualified to be king.

Therefore, today she only received a small reward. Lisa touched the whip marks on her waist, gently held her fingers with her lips, and after feeling it, she took the initiative to set out to clear the obstacles for Rand's plan.

At this time, Ellie and Olenna didn't know that Lysa was a pervert. They just thought that this female elf ranger was a little strange, but it was normal for people in the cult den to be a little strange, so they didn't ask too much. After a little preparation, they set off with Lysa.

Rand did not pay too much attention to the movements of Ellie and Olenna. He could fully understand that Ellie wanted to investigate the strength of the hideout. After all, the method to defeat the Iron Golem must be priceless.

If the hideout does not have enough strength to control this area, it is possible that they will not choose to cooperate, but Rand is not worried, because after reading his plan, these two people will probably no longer think that they can go down to the ruins and complete the adventure to obtain the artifact.

And he just obtained some important information.

The mediation of the Torch Church has begun, and it is estimated that it will not be long before Rensa withdraws its troops.

This was a good opportunity for Rand to attack the Baron. The forces in the hideout, now equipped with iron weapons, were much stronger than the Baron, who had most of his troops transferred away. Rand was not worried that the Kingdom of Lensa would pass by here when withdrawing.

This area is originally remote, and the previous attack here was entirely for the purpose of surprise. When withdrawing, there is naturally a flat road to take, and it is unlikely that they will pass through this place.

As for the baron, it seems that he did not want to share the looted goods with his colleagues, so it is impossible for him to specially call his friends to travel together.

The training of the villagers in the hideout has never been interrupted recently, and the real battle against the regular army is about to come.
