Wearing black silk for a foreign woman

Linde nodded in understanding. Although the puppet didn't know what the so-called grand plan was, it at least solved one of Linde's problems, that is, this place was built for a purpose, not a spectacle or a face-saving project, but the so-called grand plan.

From the layout here, especially the many empty rooms in the living area, it can be seen that there must have been more than one resident here, Iksi Tal. There were many residents originally, but now only Iksi Tal is left.

As for why she was the only one left, Linde thought of the magic-forbidden space when she first came in.

In that space, Lind and Ilufa encountered a demon whose body had long since turned to bones, but whose soul could not leave. They fought a battle, and Lind almost died. In addition to the corpses of the demon, there were some other corpses there. Judging from their positions, they were guarding the building and fighting against the demon.

Are the owners of those bones Iksi’s companions?

Did she go to pay tribute to her companions that day?

While they were chatting, the pig beasts had already dismantled the magic crystal manufacturing device and were ready to set off. At Ilufa's command, everyone went back the way they came.

By the time everyone had gone out, it was already around five in the afternoon and the sun had begun to set. It was obvious that they couldn't go back today.

"Goodbye everyone. You don't have to come here if you have nothing to do or need something to do." After sending Lind and his group out, the puppet waved and was about to turn back.

"Wait a minute, wait a minute." Seeing that the other party was about to go back, Lind immediately stopped him, rushed over and blocked the way of the puppet.

"What do you want to do?" Seeing this, the puppet's tone became alert, and its tracks were tightened, ready for a charge.

"Didn't we agree that you would go to the camp with us?" Linde said in surprise.

"Ah?" The puppet was confused.

"Look." Lind raised his hand, breaking off his fingers one by one, and explained to the puppet. "Didn't your master give us a set of magic crystal production equipment?"

"Correct."

"And this equipment can't just be delivered, we must be taught how to use it. You have to provide after-sales service, right?"

"...Yes." After hesitating for a moment, the puppet agreed.

"Then come with us."

"Wait, wait, wait for me." The puppet hurriedly stopped. "Why should I go with you!?"

"Because your master also said so." Linde continued as a matter of course.

"what?"

"Your master, Tal, promised to give us a set of magic crystal production equipment, but it is obvious that this set of equipment cannot be carried around and needs to be disassembled." Linde continued to explain. "If you don't come, we can't disassemble it, or it will be directly broken, so your master Tal asked you to accompany us here."

"So of course you have to follow us to the camp and teach us barbarians how to assemble it and how to use it. This is all Lord Tal's order, don't you think?"

"Is... that so?" After Lind's verbal attack, the puppet began to waver. "But if I leave with her, what will happen to Lady Tal? She is a useless person who can't even perform magic."

"...Doesn't she hibernate?" The puppet called its creator and master a waste, and Lind was slightly shocked. "Besides, our camp is not far away, and it only takes a day to go back and forth. If you are worried about your safety, we can send someone to escort you back."

After Lind's persuasion, the puppet agreed to go back to the camp with Lind and his party. The reason why Lind wanted to trick the puppet along was that he really needed someone to teach him how to use it, and he also had a little selfish motive.

It is very obvious that the toad magician named Iksi Tal is involved in a deep secret.

There is an underground building of such a large scale in the mountains not far from the camp. Even if it is for the purpose of archaeology alone, we must find a way to figure out the origin of this place, especially since it is obviously not a completely abandoned ancient relic. It has inhabitants, and although it is dilapidated, it is obviously still working.

If you want to find out the origin of this place, the easiest way is of course to ask the residents directly, but firstly, the other party is socially phobic and has not communicated with outsiders for more than a thousand years. Secondly, the other party has a mission, the so-called big plan, no matter what it is, to be able to stick to one thing for a thousand years, the will must be very firm.

And most importantly, the other party was obviously a powerful magician. Even in a weak state, Ilfa was just a weak human magician in her mouth.

For such people, you cannot use force, but you have to win over their hearts and make them willing to cooperate. In this case, let's start with the people around them.

For example, her nanny.

After meeting up with the new beastmen guarding outside and briefly explaining the current situation, everyone prepared to set off for home. As it was too late, everyone decided to stay in the wild for one night and set off at dawn the next day.

In order to prevent Iksi from coming out and calling the puppet back, the group camped in a place with water. After almost an hour's journey, they found a place to set up camp. After dinner, everyone went to sleep.

"Efit." After everyone fell asleep, Efit's consciousness came to a space full of pink. "Why did you lose contact? I need an explanation."

Chapter 316: Beauty Trap

For believers, there are some questions that they must ask, such as what God looks like, how powerful God is, what are the benefits of believing in God, such as going to heaven after death, and one of the tasks of clergy is to answer these questions.

Where is God? This is one of the questions that is bound to be asked.

Where is God? This is a question that almost all believers will ask. After all, since they believe in God, they should at least give God a chance to meet Him in person. To this, most clergy will answer that God is in another world, a place that only people with devout faith can go to. Then they will praise this place to the sky, saying how wonderful it is.

In short, God will not appear in the real world. If believers want to see God while they are alive, there is only one way, and that is through spiritual communication. Sufficiently devout believers can communicate with God or God's messenger in their consciousness. Those who can be actively summoned by God are all extremely devout believers.

Let’s not talk about Linde for now, he is a special case.

And now, Efit was summoned by the great demon under the God of Evil in his sleep.

Efit is a secret believer of the evil god. In a pink dream world, a pink evil god demon with a slender body, a male on the left and a female on the right, two large pincers, and sharp needles piercing all over the body appeared in front of Efit with an elegant step.

Although it has a strange appearance and exudes a dangerous aura, especially with sharp piercing objects and ferocious pincers all over its body, one has to admit that the evil demon in front of him is very beautiful.

Dangerous and beautiful, these are the biggest characteristics of the evil demon.

"Lord Andali." Aifit saluted the visitor with an elegant and beautiful dance.

"Your dancing has improved again." The evil demon named Andali commented on Efit's dance.

"You're too kind." Efit responded modestly but with pride.

"Dance is an expression of emotion." Andali narrowed his eyes and looked at Efit with a scrutinizing eye. "Are you in love with him?"

"Yes, Lord Andali." Efit raised his head and looked at Andali without any hesitation.

"I hope you don't forget the Lord's orders." Andali warned.

"Please rest assured, sir. I won't."

"Let's get back to the point." Andali twisted her slender body. "You and I have been disconnected for a long time. I want to know what happened."

"Yes." Efit nodded, then told Andali what happened during the day.

"The buildings in the mountains?" After listening to Efit's story, Andali smiled strangely and meaningfully. "And the Magic Toad Tribe... I didn't expect that there were some that were missed here."

"Sir, do you know the Magic Toad Clan?" Efit asked respectfully.

"Yes, of course I know." Andali sneered. "I am an old friend of these ugly toads."

"So that's how it is. You found an underground palace of the Demon Toad Clan, so I couldn't contact you."

Judging from Andali's tone, Andali knew about the existence of the Magic Toad Tribe and had come into contact with them before, and maybe even fought with them. Thinking of this, Efit couldn't help but want to ask Andali something.

"Sir, can you tell me the details about the magic toad tribe?" Efit bowed.

"What do you want to do?"

"Linde Hunter is very interested in the Magic Toad Tribe. If I could know more detailed information, I could better build a relationship with Linde and complete the mission." Efit explained.

After a long time, Efit opened his eyes.

It was still night, not yet daybreak, and everyone was sleeping except for the men on night watch.

Turning his head, Efit saw Lind lying next to him. It was not Efit's turn to sleep next to Lind, but Lind slept next to Efit, saying that he was worried that Efit might suddenly develop myocarditis.

Carefully, he touched the back of Linde's hand with the back of his hand. If he felt uncomfortable, he should wake himself up. This was Linde's instruction before going to bed. In the dim moonlight, looking at Linde's peaceful sleeping face, Efit had the urge to commit a crime.

From the initial rescue on the boat to the artificial respiration during the day, the more he recalled it, the more Efit felt that something in his body was about to flow out.

After taking several deep breaths and squeezing his legs together tightly, Efit finally suppressed his desire to commit a crime. There were too many people here, and it was not an ideal crime scene.

Be patient for a while longer. The longer you endure, the more intense the happiness will be when you get it.

After finally controlling his emotions, he lost his sleepiness. Since he couldn't sleep, Efit simply sorted out the information he had just received from Andari.

Efit's mission, in simple terms, is to use beauty to lure Lind into corruption and into the arms of the evil god. The beauty trap is not to find a beautiful woman and tell the man "you can get me if you betray me". The real beauty trap is to attack the heart.

False beauty trap: a prostitute with big breasts and long legs poses in a coquettish manner.

The Real Beauty Trap: Hello Teacher Luo, my name is Zhuang Yan.

Therefore, what Efit is doing is a real beauty trap, but there are also disadvantages to doing so, that is, the beauty may fall into it, sink, or even rebel.

For example, Effie now.

Asking his superior for information may seem like a normal task requirement, but Efit really wanted to help Lind.

The information was obtained, and the next question was how to tell Lind the information naturally and without arousing suspicion.

I have to invent another non-existent tavern guest...

"Good morning, how did you sleep last night? Does your chest feel comfortable? Do you feel chest tightness or palpitations?" The next morning, after getting up, Lind asked Efit about his health.

It was just a normal history-taking, just like ward rounds, but Efit obviously didn't know that. With every question, his expression was on the verge of losing control.

After breakfast, everyone continued their journey and arrived at the camp around noon.

Once back at the camp, everyone was stunned.

"Why is it so lively?" Linde looked at the crowded camp in surprise.

"Your Highness, the Son of God! They should all be here to seek refuge with you!" Faith, who was the tallest, took a look and found that they were all new beastmen, and reported to Lind.

"Mother, ah!" Just as everyone outside the camp was stunned, a figure suddenly rushed out from the camp, rushed to Ilufa at an extremely fast speed, and hugged Ilufa's thighs. "There are too many people! My daughter can't stand it anymore!"

Chapter 317 Population Growth

Linde and his party returned to the camp with great interest, carrying the magic crystal production equipment they brought back from the ruins in the mountains. However, before they even entered the camp gate, they could see from afar that the camp was in chaos and full of people.

In the original camp, there were only about 500 people at most, which was not small, but definitely not large either. At least it was completely incomparable to the world before Lind crossed over. But now, from a distance, Lind could see that the camp was full of people, and almost all of them were various new beastmen.

What happened?

Before everyone could react, Alisa suddenly rushed out from the camp, rushed over at a speed that was inconsistent with a magician's physical fitness, and hugged Ilfa's thigh.

"Mother, you are finally back!" Elisa hugged Ilufa's thighs tightly and burst into tears. "You are finally back! There are too many people! I, your daughter, can't bear it!"

"Enough! Get up! Do you still look like a noble like this?!" Ilfa was both angry and furious at Elisa's behavior.

"What happened? Why are there so many people?" Linde came over with amusement.

"What else could it be? They all came to seek refuge with you, Lord Son of God." At Irufa's urging, Alisa stood up and said without any resentment. "These are all new beastmen who came to seek refuge with you."

After seeing that all the people here were new beastmen, Linde was actually mentally prepared, but after hearing Alisa's admission, he still felt a big shock in his heart.

"So many..." Lind muttered to himself as he looked at the endless new beastmen in the camp.

"Although we haven't finished counting them yet, at least 300 new beastmen have arrived in just one day," said Alisa with dead eyes. "It took a lot of effort just to register them in one day. I'm almost exhausted!"

"only you?"

"Of course not." Elisa shook her head. "Winter and Sir Ram helped me, and Sister Fenrir also helped to maintain order, but there were too many people coming at once, so I had to stop everyone else's work and register these beastmen first."

There was resentment in Alyssa's tone, but from the fatigue that could not be concealed on her face and the dark circles under her eyes, it could be seen that she had indeed tried her best.

"Alisa, you did a great job." Ilufa praised her daughter. "You have done a great job in receiving so many refugees without causing any trouble."

In the Holy Empire and the surrounding feudal areas, people who lost all their land due to inability to pay taxes were called refugees. For local feudal lords, refugees were an unstable factor that was difficult to deal with, and accepting refugees was even more difficult. Although the people who came to seek refuge were new beastmen, they were not the same as refugees.

"No, it's not just my achievement." Elisa scratched her head a little embarrassedly after being praised by her mother. "Many people helped me. In addition to the ones I just mentioned, Grandpa Sal and Grandma Fran also helped a lot, because many of the new beastmen here came for the name of the Son of the Earth Mother Goddess."

"Many new beastmen came directly to look for you. After knowing that you were not here, some even wanted to cause trouble. Fortunately, Grandpa Sal and Grandma Fran helped to calm them down."

"Making trouble?" Hearing this, Linde's eyes hardened and he became serious. "Are there any new beastmen trying to cause trouble?"

"Yes." Alisa nodded.

Linde looked a little solemn. At the beginning, the residents in the camp were mainly exiled prisoners from the Holy Empire. At that time, there were not many new beastmen in the camp, and the main population was still humans. But now, after these waves of new beastmen came, the number of new beastmen has exceeded that of humans.

The change in the racial ratio of the residents is not a big deal, and this world has not yet given birth to any nationalism or racism. But there is another very important issue. These new beastmen do not have the status of serfs, and the old methods cannot be applied to their management.

At this moment, some of the new beastmen who were queuing up to register in the camp saw Lind outside the camp, and immediately rushed out excitedly, surrounded Lind in a circle, and shouted excitedly "Son of God".

These new beastmen, of different races, all wore simple clothes, some were naked, and their lower bodies swayed confidently. Most of them were covered in dirt, but all were excited, just like the fanatics among humans.

"Madam, can I say a few words?" Facing the new beastmen who surrounded him, Lind felt that he needed to say something.

"Go ahead." Ilfa nodded, his eyes meaningful.

After getting Ilfa's consent, Linde thought about it and was about to speak when he glanced at the height of the new beastmen around him. They were generally about 1.78 meters tall, and there were quite a few who were 2 meters tall. Compared with his small stature of 1.6 meters, he was indeed at a slight disadvantage.

Lind asked Faith beside him if he could sit on his shoulders, and Faith immediately bent down happily.

The two-meter-tall Feisi easily lifted Lind up and sat on her shoulders. After riding the bull, Lind unlocked a new mount.

As a knight's squire, it seems that I have never ridden a horse... Thinking of this, Lind glanced among the new beastmen, and he actually found a horse beastman.

Sitting on Faith's shoulders, Lind looked down at the new beastmen around him. He first raised his hand for silence, and after the noise died down, Lind began his speech.
