My vampire princess wants to repay a debt of gratitude.

The clan chief's second son killed another poor mole, put the mole's blood in a cup, and handed it to Lin Mo. Lin Mo hesitated before taking the cup of blood and handing it to Jerry.

"No need to spend money, I'm not hungry today."

He said earnestly.

The old clan chief nodded slightly. His son poured the mole's blood into an earthenware jar, sealed it, skinned the mole, and placed it on the grill.

Jerry took a sip of mole blood and found the taste strange, but since it was given to him by the Son of Gold, he dared not refuse to finish it.

"Is it someone in a higher position who wants to see me?"

The old clan chief asked.

"Yes."

Lin Mo replied, "He hopes you can attend the talks, and we'll decide on the way to cooperate at the negotiating table."

"Don't you have the right to decide how things will go?"

The old patriarch raised his eyes, his dark green pupils like deep pools.

Ye Zimo replied calmly, "I can."

“That’s it. I will only communicate with you. You have proven with your strength that you are a cooperative ally. I am very satisfied. You have helped us protect our homeland, and we are willing to help you.”

Jerry was stunned. This meant that the old patriarch had no intention of seeing General Luton and only wanted to trade with the Son of Gold!

"Alright, I promise you that after the war, Torid will not force you to become citizens of the Kingdom of Meor. You can continue to live here as a tribe, and we will manage the Bloodstone mine together."

Lin Mo said that he knew this was Ye Zimo's idea as well.

"The great progenitor Cain will bless you; you are a kind and pure person."

The old clan chief spoke slowly, and his son and grandson gratefully performed a traditional Nuofele clan salute for Ye Zimo.

"This is Jerry, my descendant, who will be in charge of connecting you from now on."

Jerry was completely bewildered.

He looked at Ye Zimo, then at the old clan chief, wondering how he had become the liaison.

Chapter 273 Underground Palace

The old chieftain sized up Jerry. He was handsome and tall, and compared to the short and deformed Nofyl tribe, Jerry was like a giant.

Jerry's body trembled slightly, as if being looked at by the old man had frightened him.

In all his life, he had only ever seen deformed vampires in picture books, but here they were almost all of them.

Jerry didn't know why Ye Zimo wanted him to deal with these people, but he was actually repulsed by it.

Ye Zimo raised her eyes, glanced at Jerry, and did not follow his advice: "Remember how I brought you here, and don't tell anyone else, otherwise..."

“Okay, Lilith.”

Jerry immediately agreed, because he realized that the Son of Gold had only brought him along, and it would be difficult for the other Torid nobles to get close to Lilith. He, on the other hand, had clearly become Lilith's confidant and was able to convey her message in her stead.

Jerry instantly felt that he had already surpassed his peers in the family. If he won this war, he would return as the true power holder in the family, because the Son of Gold would support him.

As long as Lilith supports him, he'd be willing to associate with these deformed Noflers, or even be sent to a pigsty to raise pigs.

This is the difference between Jerry and Ruhr; Ruhr is a bit too proud to admit his mistake.

Jerry is a shameless person. When Ye Zimo first appeared, he secretly followed her. But after his father told him the truth about the Son of Gold, he completely forgot about following and monitoring her and shamelessly came over.

Lin Mo admired this kind of young man; he believed that this young man had a bright future ahead of him.

"Lilith, the guy at the door...Trent also knows about him, so this doesn't count as me leaking information, right?"

Jerry stammered, almost revealing that Tremblay was a pirate.

Ye Zimo looked at him quietly without saying a word, and the atmosphere instantly became very awkward.

Jerry felt like he was being stared at by an elder, and he wanted to slap himself for being so talkative!

Sometimes he even wanted to call Lilith his great-grandmother, because that was the impression Lilith gave—her appearance was deceptive, but her soul was actually greater than Jerry's father's.

Jerry suddenly understood why his father respected the Golden Sons so much; they were an undead group, and no one knew how long the undead had lived.

"Then don't tell a third person."

Lin Mo spoke up for Ye Zimo, afraid that if he didn't speak up, Jerry would go crazy from the pressure.

Jerry nodded frantically, as if grasping at a lifeline.

"Yes, I won't tell anyone. Lilith once..."

Jerry covered his mouth.

Lin Mo raised an eyebrow. This guy is even calling her great-grandmother? No wonder they're both of Torid blood.

"I need to know the deployment of Innis and Denisa in Area 2, as well as a map of Area 2."

Ye Zimo glanced at the old clan chief, who turned to his second son and whispered something in a language no one could understand. The second son then went into the inner attic of the house, took out some treasured documents, and handed them to Ye Zimo.

The materials include a map of area 2, and it's a very detailed map.

This map contains information about the number of mountains and rivers in Zone 2, resembling a meticulously drawn landmark mountain range map, and also marks an underground city-state.

This is enough to prove that many Nofele people also live in the underground world of Zone 2.

Are any of your people there?

Lin Mo asked curiously.

“Although we are of the same race, we have long since branched out. What you call Area 2 is called the Underground Palace here. The city lord is Megisi Morey Nofler. Our relationship is simply one of trade; we exchange goods and services.”

The old patriarch was Bach, the second son.

"An underground palace?"

Bach's son, Balem, was so excited that he danced around and wanted to chat with the beautiful Ye Zimo, especially since sharing what he knew seemed to prove his worth.

When Ye Zimo first came, he couldn't say much because of his grandfather's attitude. But now that his grandfather has agreed to cooperate with this group of beautiful outsiders, Balem no longer needs to remain silent.

Lin Mo turned to look at the excited little Balem, who said:

“In our area, a place with a population of over 5 is called the Earth Division, a place with a population of over 10 is called the Underground Palace, and a place with a population of over 50 is called the Earth City. They are all named after the clan chief. We are called the Bartol Earth Division because my grandfather was named Bartol. The island you mentioned, No. 2, is actually the Megisi Underground Palace.”

“I advise you not to try to access the Megissi Palace. I can provide you with a map, but our people can't offer you much help in Area 2. Megissi doesn't like people from the Underworld entering his territory. We don't usually enter the Megissi Palace except for necessary transactions. He's a very xenophobic guy.”

Bach, the old patriarch's son, said.

"Our enemies are currently in area 2. Will they discover the underground palace first?"

Lin Mo asked.

The old chieftain shook his head: "The Megisi Palace is more prosperous than the tribe and rarely appears on land. Their palace is built 500 meters underground, making it difficult to be discovered. So outsiders have no way to find them, at least not in the short term."

"If war breaks out, is it possible to bypass them?"

Jerry interrupted curiously.

"Unless you never touch the blood mine that belongs to Meggie, those are his treasures hidden underground. If he finds anyone digging in, he will retaliate in anger."

Bach said.

Jerry began to worry about the people of Innis and Denise, imagining them being besieged by such a group of deformed soldiers, and couldn't help but feel a little smug.

The underground palace has a population of over 10, which means that more than 10 people live in the underground world of Island 2. If all these people flood onto the land, they will surely rout Innis and Denise's advance forces.

Keep in mind that the advance force only numbered a few thousand, and after several battles, it was already quite tenacious that five hundred of them remained.

Innis and Denise's first wave of reinforcements hadn't even arrived yet; by the time they did, they'd probably only be there to collect their bodies.

"What about Area 3? Wouldn't that be easier to communicate with?"

"Jerry asked."

The area of ​​Island 3 is almost the same as that of Island 1, so Jerry thinks there should only be one department there, with at most a few thousand people.

Bach clearly didn't know where Jerry meant Island 3.

Ye Zimo took out a map from her bosom and laid it flat on the ground.

The map shows the entirety of the Atlantis Islands and is marked with numbers, from 1 to 12.

"This was drawn by our navigator."

Noticing the old patriarch's confusion, Lin Mo explained.

Bach also took out a local map, and the two maps overlapped. His expression gradually became serious.

"This place is known as the forbidden land. It is cursed. Any vampire who appears on the island will die. I suggest you do not go there and abandon this place."

Balem nodded in agreement: "We children of the Earth all know that the Forbidden Land of Fissell is a place that must never be entered. Once you enter, your soul will be stolen."

Chapter 274 Gratitude

Ye Zimo's eyes lit up as she asked, "Are there many more places like this?"

She suddenly realized that she could exploit an information gap with her opponent; if there were many such forbidden areas, she could lure her opponent there.

Although Ye Zimo believes she is highly skilled, it doesn't mean she will recklessly charge into battle. She prefers to use her intelligence to overwhelm her opponents.

Lin Mo also noticed her thoughts, otherwise she wouldn't have taken the initiative to ask questions, since Lin Mo was the one who was communicating with them before.

The old patriarch paused, then pointed to area number 8 on the map: "And this place is called the Fayez Forbidden Land. The rest are managed by the Nofele tribe. News of your arrival should have already spread throughout the Teranti Islands."

"Thank you."

Lin Mo expressed his gratitude and then asked, "Is there anything special about this place?"

"The Forbidden Land of Fissell is a place where all vampires will die if they enter, but elves and orcs are allowed to enter, and some species can survive there. The Forbidden Land of Fayez, on the other hand, is a place where no life exists at all. Whether in the sky, on land, or in the underworld, it is all deathly silent. It is known as the true death zone."

Jerry couldn't help but swallow hard, feeling that just hearing the old patriarch's description was already terrifying.

He silently marked forbidden areas on islands number 3 and 8 on the map.

Fortunately, the old chieftain provided this useful information. If the Meor soldiers had to explore on their own, who knows how many more people would have died to gather this information. This is the benefit of forming an alliance with the natives. Jerry suddenly felt a sense of awe towards Lilith again. She truly deserves to be called the Son of Gold.

Lin Mo, Jerry, and the chieftain's family chatted for a while longer until the fragrant roasted mole was cooked. They each had a piece, ate, and then left the gathering place.

Jerry could tell that Ye Zimo was very popular here; both the elderly and children liked her.
