Chapter 472 Underground Romance

The next morning.

Hotel room.

Rand opened his eyes and saw Karin's golden hair and peaceful sleeping face.

After Rand and Karin had an ambiguous relationship in the big bath yesterday.

Then we went to the hotel in the resort villa at the foot of the mountain.

Of course, in order to conceal his secret relationship with Karin, Rand winked at the hotel owner when he went to book a room in the hotel.

Of course the tavern owner knew Rand.

He immediately said he would keep his mouth shut.

Then Rand and Karin moved in.

All I can say is that as a king, Karin’s physical fitness is incomparable to that of ordinary people, and her physical strength is astonishingly good.

However, perhaps due to the many previous treatment activities, the "sensitivity" is a bit high.

And just as Karin said, Rand was actually quite familiar with Karin's body.

In short, the winner of the battle between the two is probably Rand.

As for why it is temporary, it is naturally because Karin is not considered a loser.

Rand felt that it would be impossible to exhaust her physically.

In the end, enough is enough.

And after seeing Karin's physical fitness in the big bath, Rand came to the hotel and specifically booked a twin room.

Now the other bed is a mess.

And now the bed that Rand and Karin slept in was very clean.

Rand was remarkably prescient.

After Rand woke up, Karin did not open her eyes either, but she had obviously woken up a long time ago. The blonde beauty sat up on the bed, her blonde hair as bright as the sun scattered on her undulating body, and the sunlight outside the window shone on her skin.

The reflection is quite dazzling.

"Okay, stop looking." Karin snorted, "Don't tell anyone about it."

"Actually, I think it doesn't matter if outsiders know about this." Rand pinched Karin's plump breasts.

Karin's recovery ability is very strong. Originally, her body was covered with traces of Rand's leaving, but now they are basically invisible.

"Then I won't admit it." Karin snorted, "There's nothing wrong between us. There's no unclear underground relationship."

Rand pulled Karin over and pressed his lips against hers.

As soft as ever.

After a long time.

The two then separated.

Karin panted slightly.

"As the Saint of the Torch Church's newborn sect and the Crimson King, there are many things I cannot say openly. In short, I cannot make them public."

"Aren't you a detective now?" Rand said helplessly.

"But I won't be a coward all my life. As we continue to develop, one day, I will stand in the forefront. My strength and reputation are still of some value." Karin said lightly.

"So you plan to be my secret lover for life?" Rand asked helplessly.

"What are you talking about? Do we have any shameful relationship?" Karin stood up from the bed and frowned slightly. It was her first time having sex, and she was still not quite used to her current body.

Karin put the clothes on herself and turned to face Rand: "If you don't want to take advantage of me anymore, put on your clothes."

Rand reached out decisively, pinched Karin all over her body to satisfy his urge, and then began to put on his clothes.

Karin also put on her clothes.

"Let's go. I'll take you to the sanctuary." Karin actually wanted to disappear directly, but if she ran away, there would be no one to protect Rand's safety.

Even now, she felt a little guilty about going to the Holy Land.

According to her understanding, the top leaders of the Sanctuary had some unclear relationships with Rand.

She is now in a position of interference.

For Rand, this was not a moral fault. Among the nobles, Rand was considered to be the one who kept a good eye on his own pants.

But for Karin, even as an underground lover, it still felt a little awkward.

It feels like forcibly intervening in someone else's family.

It made her feel a bit bad.

The two of them quickly sorted it out.

Then he checked out secretly and took the hidden path to the upper sanctuary.

Unfortunately, the first high-ranking official he met in the upper sanctuary was the Duchess of the Moon, Ellie Carrant.

Duchess Ellie looked at Karin meaningfully.

Karin fled.

When Karin disappeared from sight, Ellie quipped, "You did it?"

Rand nodded.

"So is she going to move upstairs later?" Ellie asked.

Rand shook his head: "She and I are innocent."

"Puchi." Ellie couldn't help laughing, "Okay, okay, it's clear."

Ellie then changed the subject: "You have already dealt with the legendary Crimson King, so when will you use your brain, my sister?"

"Can you help me sound out the situation first?" Rand said helplessly.

The relationship between Rand and the White King, Berlan Calant, is actually very good.

But for now, it can only be considered as a relationship between friends, and the relationship between my brother-in-law and my elder brother-in-law is good.

The only time that he and the White King crossed the line was when they danced together after everyone had left.

But that’s the best it can do.

Sometimes the meaning of dancing together is unclear, and sometimes it is just dancing together.

Rand wasn't so sure.

Ellie needs to test the waters first.

And as long as the White King is not particularly disgusted, Rand is indeed going to give it a try.

Some things just require taking the initiative.

"Okay, okay. Let me think about how to write the letter." Ellie spread out her palms.

"One more thing." Ellie spoke again.

Rand raised his eyebrows and glanced at Ellie, and asked, "Is the vacation going to end early?"

"Not really," Ellie said. "It's just a small thing."

Rand was relieved.

"What is it?"

"There was a small incident in the marriage of Adrian, the son of our ally, the King of Frost Moon Kingdom, Marcus." Ellie introduced, "In short, his wife was robbed."

"Ah?" Rand was stunned.

Rand knew that Adrian was going to get married. As an ally and "elder", Rand of course received an invitation.

Rand was ready to go to the wedding, but he didn't expect that Adrian's wife had been kidnapped.

"Marcus was furious about this and assembled an elite force to try to get it back, but he lacked a commander agile enough to make up for his lack of special operations experience."

"Let Fenris take Tata with him, and bring more people. We can't lose face here."

Ellie nodded to show that she understood.

"So do you have anything else to do? And do you want to come back to sleep today?"

"It's okay, come back and sleep today."

"Then let's go back to the lord's hall." Ellie tapped the ground with the soles of her feet.

All around were stones, architects walking around, and laborers.

The upper sanctuary is also being renovated now.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

In order to completely change the external image of the Mother Goddess Sect, the transformation of the sanctuary is imperative.

Rand does not like these vanity projects. In theory, these resources can be used to build more factories or more ships.

But now it has to be done.

Otherwise, if outsiders come to the sanctuary and don’t feel enough style, they may not even look at the Goddess of Harvest and Health.

There is nothing we can do about it.

All Rand can do is to ensure that the Church of the Goddess of Harvest and Health will not become a rotten thing with a beautiful appearance.

…

Now, it is the end of winter of the eighth year since Rand came to this world. After this winter, next year will be the 336th year of the Sacred Calendar.

The fleet is still developing, and the industrial zone has gradually started up due to the arrival of dwarf craftsmen.

The population of the sanctuary has also been expanding year by year, reaching 36,000.

The main reason for this is that the Marquis of the Stag left him a lot of people, and the number of newborns in the sanctuary is also increasing year by year.

Moreover, although the population of the Holy Domain is generally young, it is not too young. The reason for this is that the infant mortality rate has dropped significantly.

In a world with poor sanitary conditions, it is very difficult for children to grow up.

This is the case for the children of nobles, and the children of village villagers have to face countless threats as they grow up.

Hunger, wild beasts, evil cults, and rogue soldiers can all prevent a teenager or young man from reaching adulthood.

But after Rand came to this land, many things gradually improved.

Moreover, Rand values ​​the population very much and will not use it indiscriminately as conscripts. Therefore, although the villagers in the Duke of the Moon have a high rate of joining the army, the mortality rate is actually not high.

Rand also recruited many herbalists for training, which allowed many soldiers injured on the battlefield to survive.

These fighters may be disabled, but their survival rate will not be too low.

As for how disabled soldiers will find employment, Rand has his own arrangements.

In short, as a "greedy" lord, he would assign jobs to even disabled warriors.

If you have a job, you will have a salary, and if you have a salary, you will not be looked down upon by your family. The awards and condolences awarded by the sanctuary will also bring these people dignity.

These well-cared-for soldiers will also be noticed by countless people, thus gradually improving the public sentiment in the Dukedom of the Moon.

The reason why Rand values ​​money so much is that many things require money and materials to achieve.

Of course, Rand would always remind himself not to put the cart before the horse.

Just when Rand was somewhat bored and waiting for the final payment from the Kingdom of Bolan and the Kingdom of Lensa in the Lord's Hall of the Upper Sanctuary.

In the Elf Forest, an elf dressed in a robe, holding a staff and with a slender figure, set off with a caravan.

This elf is Vanilla's teacher, the elf elder, field exploration expert, archaeologist, ancient alchemist, archmage, black dragon mage, archdruid, and scholar - Nidhogg.

The last failure made him realize that the Dukedom of the Moon Phase was a place with seemingly loose defenses, but in fact the defenses were extremely strict.

Moreover, the defense regulations are difficult to understand, and you never know where a powerful person with exaggerated strength will appear.

He, Nidhogg, is an elf elder and one of the top fighters in the Elf Forest filled with undead creatures over a hundred years old.

And he actually met a strong man who was equally matched with him, or even stronger than him, in a human dukedom.

The rolling flames and the relentless heat waves are still fresh in his memory.

And as for the Centaur, theoretically the superior Centaur cannot be born. Centaurs are wild monsters without a real political form of settlement. The knowledge passed down is mostly messy and full of errors and omissions.

In such a situation, being able to reach the elite level by relying on wild instincts and innate talents is already a genius among monsters.

Under completely natural conditions, it might take fifty to sixty years, or even one or two hundred years, for a superior monster to be born in the entire main world and the dark underground area.

This is also the balance between monsters and humanoid species.

Monsters have naturally powerful physiques, which far exceed the racial advantages of humanoid creatures, and humanoid creatures have correspondingly obtained compensation from the "Creator", unity, wisdom, and possibilities.

After returning to the Elven Forest, he went to investigate.

I found out who the strong, fire-using old human I met was.

The former cardinal of the Torch Church, the current leader of the Torch Church's nascent sect, the behemoth killer, the master of the Crimson Book, Archbishop Kahn.

It was unexpected that I would encounter such a person in such a remote corner, and Bishop Kahn, who would theoretically be completely hostile to monsters, would actually cooperate with a monster.

This makes everything in the Dukedom of the Moon full of mystery to Nidhogg.

So he made a lot of preparations before setting out this time.

Last time he paid the ransom and got out.

Nidhogg actually felt a little embarrassed to go over and make trouble again this time.

But morally and logically, his students are there after all, and he cannot just leave them alone. The bloodline of the elven royal family cannot be left out in the world.

It would be fine if ordinary elves were abducted, but the bloodline of the elven royal family was lost, and the inheritance of the elven throne would never be truly stable.

In theory, when a new Elf King ascends the throne, all eligible royal family members must be present to witness it.

Although Vanilla's right to inherit the throne is as late as possible, she still has it.

So Nidhogg must find a way to get the person back.

Although I have also tried to explore the mysterious land of the Duke of the Moon.

"Do you all know the rules?" Nidhogg looked at the elves in the convoy.

There are real elven merchants here, but most of them are elven wizards and elven rangers.

These elves all know the importance of this mission and are ready to make sacrifices for it.

Although elves are captured by humans, in most cases they are "used" rather than executed.

"We must rescue Vanilla at all costs," everyone said.

"Ahem, this is also important, but that's not what I want to talk about." Nidhogg shook his head, "The key point is not to kill anyone."

"I have studied it and experienced it myself. The local lords attach great importance to the lives of people in the territory. As long as they don't kill anyone, there is a high probability that they can pay the ransom. But if they kill someone, they may have to stay there forever." Nidhogg emphasized.

"Do you understand everything?" Nidhogg asked.

"Understood!" Although the elves who followed Nidhogg were confused, they all decided to obey the orders of this prestigious and powerful elven elder.
