Chapter 59: The Abandoned Camp
The empty, lifeless camp made Charlotte's nervous heart half cold in an instant.
"No wonder you kid said this camp is very interesting...... Your 'Highness' can't fight a war, does it look like you're still very good at running a clan......!" That's not because the so-called son of the abyss chose to back down for fear of losing his life!
Kwaseg was a little surprised that his men and the camp described by the succubus were even more ...... He thought that those words were just the exaggerations of two people with ulterior motives!
-- Delicate and sturdy stone houses, as neatly laid out as green sheds. This succubus didn't boast that her so-called highness did have something superior to others!
It's a pity that that guy doesn't have a strong warrior to protect these untakable possessions, but he just happens to be cheap! This is the second time that the Horned Overseer and his men have driven this gang of rich and cowardly bastards to abandon their camp. Thinking of this, Quasaig couldn't help but feel complacent...... It was indeed the first time he had seen such a well-organized and well-organized camp.
This is far more abandoned than the last time they found it on the edge of the swamp, and there is still such an abundance of food and water near the camp!If it weren't for the unpredictable dangers and curses in the swamp, the leader of the horned demons would want to go back and report to Lord Banuma at once, and suggest that his leader move the entire tribe to the bottom of this mountain! Who the hell said this is not suitable for us demons to live in? Could the legendary Garandia be richer than here!?
Contrary to the excitement of the Horned Overseer and his noisy and scruffy men, Charlotte's mood has hit rock bottom. But there was one thing she and the Horned Overseer thought the same thing - she still didn't want to believe it, but the cruel facts had proved that André had once again abandoned the affluence camp they had spent nearly half a year slowly building. Although Andrari's size is not comparable to the Limestone Valley and Thornleaf Village, this is the condensation of the entire clan and the elven and dwarven allies for months!
Looking at the camp, which used to be full of laughter and laughter, but now seems empty and desolate, Charlotte even forgot about her own safety for a while. Although she was mentally prepared for the possibility that His Highness might give up on herself, she still couldn't accept His Highness's practice of directly abandoning the entire camp. At that time, His Highness decided to save Vajana because the enemy only had two Winged Demon Scouts, but she was captured by dozens of strong warriors. In the face of dozens of warriors abandoning her, Charlotte was completely understandable, but how could Her Highness just give it up without even fighting for the entire camp!?
She was confident that Aina would report her warnings to Her Highness, and that Andrari's scouts were far more familiar with the swamp's terrain and environment than the bandits—they would be the first to find out what was going on with the enemy: a team of dozens of stalkers of horned demons, snake demons, and winged demons.
Even without the support of elves and dwarves, Andrari would not be able to defeat the bandits in a head-on confrontation. But they can still rely on the fortress-like stone house to keep the enemy at bay!Why would His Highness choose to give up directly!?
For the first time in her heart, Charlotte had doubts about the omnipotent Highness Andrew, and she knew that His Highness must have his own trade-offs. But the succubus still felt that even if they shed some blood and made some sacrifices, they couldn't just give up the camp they had worked so hard to build!
The predatory nature of these bandits has been deeply rooted in their bones, and blindly retreating will only make them gain an inch and bite Andrarui to the death! These brutes will greedily try to suck every trace of blood and hope from the cadres!!
The succubus sat limply on the ground, and the warriors who passed by her could no longer sway a disheartened woman's attention. And the robbers, who had discovered many novelties, put aside their interest in this woman for the time being, beautiful succubi were very common, but such a beautiful and tidy camp was unheard of in their lives!
These rough-handed robbers rummaged through every corner of the camp, and the sound of crockpots shattering left tears of humiliation in the eyes of the lost succubus. It was the crafted instrument of the cowardly demons under the guidance of Lord Garuda, and with the miraculous wisdom of His Highness Andrew, they had changed the desperate fate of a desperate team!!
When Andrari's little men all realized that they could make some limited contribution to the tribe even as cowards, it rejoiced for a long time the short men who had once been used only as food for stock.
Once upon a time, whenever she saw the cowardly demons designated for food screaming and being dragged away by the butchers, Charlotte couldn't help but feel a kind of sadness in her heart.
When a tribe is in the most difficult situation, and even the cowardice has nothing to eat, the succubus is often the next victim to replace them.
In most of the clans of the Demon Realm, the weak often end up like this, they do not have the ability to control their own destiny, and can only fall victim to the stronger ones of the strong. It wasn't until she and her companions discovered that His Highness was different, that the great son of the abyss had somehow changed the eternal fate of their weaklings!
But even the great Highness who can change this eternal fate cannot change the fact that Andrarui is still very weak!
As a succubus of the underprivileged, Charlotte can't help but fantasize about a tribe or world that can thrive without sacrificing the weak. She knew that her lack of progress and her lack of exhaustive thinking about how to step on the corpses of others was itself a manifestation of the eternal cowardice of the weak. But when she saw the cowards rejoicing over a few complete clay pots, she couldn't help but rejoice for them. His Royal Highness Andrew, who had laid down new rules, made her think that the weak relied on labor to make tools and obtain food, and the strong relied on force to protect the weak, which was the tribal order she had always dreamed of. The cruelty of reality told her that unless Andrarui could one day become one of the largest forces in the Demon Realm, even His Highness Andrei, who was extremely wise, would not be able to protect her simple and naïve extravagance.
"Stop me!, you filthy pigs!!," the tear-stained succubus screamed in her heart, "who gave you the right to destroy the precious fruits of Andrarui's labor!?Fools with brains crawling with worms!!
Charlotte struggled to break away the horned demons who were rudely rummaging for food and various sauces, her weak body made it impossible for her to shake the warriors who were as strong as rocks, and she almost couldn't even stand on her feet. Fortunately, these horned demons also knew that the leader of their leader, Lord Banuma, who had usurped the position of the leader of the conquests by virtue of a sinister conspiracy, still needed this woman, so for the sake of others and for himself, a horned demon kindly helped the crazy succubus.
Charlotte, who had avoided the horned demons with a momentum, carefully held the intact crockpots in her arms, cursing the fools in front of her who had no knowledge and had broken several crockpots.
"What's crazy about this woman!?" Quasaig asked his men with an unhappy expression.
"My lord, we don't know, it's just that she seems to care about those round things. ”
"Tell me honestly, what are these things for?" The Horned Demon Overseer, who was even more burly than the low-level Firefiend, crouched beside Charlotte with a serious face.
"You shallowly fools will never be able to comprehend the greatness of His Highness in your life!" the bluffing scream caused the succubus' spit to squirt into the face of the horned demon leader.
Kwaseg easily wiped the spit on his face, smiled and said to the succubus: "Maybe you still don't understand, the 'fool' in front of you has many ways to make a succubus with a child pregnant kneel and beg for mercy...... Why don't we talk about your Highness now?"
At first, Kwaseg thought that the woman was just pretending to scare herself, but after seeing the well-planned camp, he suddenly realized that there might really be one or two extraordinary figures among the group of exiles.
"Your Highness...... This jar was created by His Highness's guidance to Lord Garuda, and members of the clan used it to cook food. After her anger and reluctance were exhausted, Charlotte began to be afraid.
"Cooking food?"
"Yes, said Your Highness...... His Highness said that this way of eating would make it easier for the body to absorb food. "The succubus still doesn't reveal the importance of cooked food to a tribe in the swamp, it can help people avoid the invasion of unclean water and food to the greatest extent!
In addition to being afraid of the bloody methods of the Horned Demon Overseers, Charlotte considered revealing some of the secrets to the Horned Demon Overseers mainly because of the few runes on the walls of the stone house around her that were of unknown meaning in the eyes of the other demons.
It was the text of the elves, and Charlotte had the good fortune to learn a little bit of it in the collective arrangement of His Highness Andrew. And these two simple words on the wall, succubus, just remember their meaning clearly.
"Cooperation", "enemy", the succubus who calmed down only to find that these two words had been written all over her vision with cyan paint, and the walls of every stone house!
This...... It can only be the idea of His Highness!
Although she didn't understand what kind of plan the wise Highness had planned, Charlotte clearly understood that if these were the wills left by His Highness to guide her, then she didn't need to know the details at all, she just needed to do it simply!
Because in her heart, His Highness's wisdom is so omnipotent!!
