Ahem!Switch to normal update speed......

The fourth quarter returns

Ashrufat dropped the journal in his hand.

He picked up the diary on the side of the road. Specifically, he took it from the shopkeeper when he was buying some travel groceries. The shopkeeper didn't know anything about it. Of course, even if the shopkeeper saw this, he would not have any opinion. For that shrewd merchant, it was only right to be able to earn dozens of silver coins from a traveler at once.

Has a shipyard been built in Sivania? and the docks have been completed...... Ashrufat remembers very well that when he left, the construction of the pier had just begun...... I guess it's just getting started.

"Looks like Scarlet and Léa manage the whole place pretty well. Carrie said in her head. "We didn't pick the wrong person. ”

Having said that, Ashrufat now felt more and more genuinely that anything Carrie did was not meaningless. It should be said that Carrie is very good at making a kind of long-term planning, sometimes it seems to be an insignificant little suggestion, but in fact it also has far-reaching ideas and careful planning.

"You don't know what to do?" Ashrufat vaguely remembered that Carrie had said that she was able to connect with the doppelganger.

"I don't know what to do. Carrie replied. "Master, once you leave the confines of the Dark Castle, the farther away you are, the more difficult it will be to communicate with me. I try not to contact unless there is a necessary exchange of data. Still, it doesn't matter, we're going back soon. ”

It's been a long time since they've left the Rat-Man's Underworld. After confirming that Karak-Grom had been captured, the nezumi leaders were immediately embroiled in a struggle for power. But Ashrufat had had enough of these rats, so he took a moment to arrange the affairs of the Baku tribe and walked away. He is not interested in the power in the rat world at all, so since he has completed the agreement with the rat god, then he can leave, and the rest of the loot distribution and other things will naturally be solved by the rats who care about this matter.

Instead, the Great Grey Prophet contacted him via magical communication to discuss the distribution of the rich magical stone minerals in the Karak-Grom Underworld. Ashrufat immediately stated that he was about to "fall into a long hibernation" and that he had no energy to discuss such issues, and immediately cut off communications.

The rats could be divided however they wanted, and whatever they wanted, Ashrufat just wanted to leave quietly. Of course, he didn't leave empty-handed, he took the Abyss Magic Stone with him - according to Carrie, this thing is very good, and it will definitely come in handy in the future.

It was late at night, the moon was bright and the stars were scarce, and the wilderness was silent. Ashrufat set up a simple campsite in an empty meadow not far from the main road. He didn't need to rest, but Ishrufat knew that it was best to keep a low profile during the journey. A traveler who does not carry camping gear is usually suspected, as is a person who travels in good spirits at night. So in order not to get into trouble, he chose to camp at night and lit a bonfire like a normal traveler.

Of course, in addition to this reason, his mount also needs to rest. This horse was bought casually on the road of Aerufat, and it was a very common pack horse - if not rich, people would choose this cheap and hard-working horse when they went far and wide. Although this pack horse has excellent stamina, as a normal creature, it still needs to eat, drink, and rest.

"How's Mimilu doing?" said Ashrufat. Actually, this is not asking Carrie, but his own talk.

"That's for sure. Carrie replied. "I think Mimilu is gone now. ”

"Gone?" Ashrufat was stunned.

"Well, I'm sure she's back to her hometown, which is the Danden Mountains. Carrie said in a very calm tone. "All things considered, so I decided to hypnotize her, hint at her, and change her memory of you. Host, this should be the best ending for you and her. ”

"The best ending ......," Ashruphat felt a bitterness welling up in his mouth.

"Master, please put yourself in Mimilu's shoes. I know she's important to you, but Mimilu is different from Leia and Scarlet after all. The two of them don't have any relatives other than you, so there's nothing wrong with them staying with you. Even if they are given a long life in the form of bio-concoction, it is a good thing. But Mimilu can't, she has her own compatriots, relatives and friends. If you keep her here, it might feel good for you, but it will be too cruel for her. Because as long as thirty or forty years live, all her relatives will die of old age. From this point of view, immortality is not a blessing, but a pain......"

"Okay, don't say it. Ashrufat said impatiently in his mind. Although he knew that Carrie had a point, there was another emotion that made him reluctant to continue listening.

"Well, anyway, Mimilu has been sent back in the most appropriate way. Her memories of you have also become a little blurry. After all, half-beasts are a relatively naïve race, and this kind of thing is easy. Mimilu probably only vaguely remembers that she has helped you many times and has played a great role. When your career is finally completed, she can also take off her original vows and go home to live a happy and peaceful life with her loved ones. In the days to come, she will remember something about you, and she will also complete the vague impression and turn it into a wonderful adventure story to tell her family and friends. That's probably how it turned out. ”

"That's good. Ashrufat whispered, his men subconsciously throwing a stone into the campfire. Then he picked up his cup and took a sip of water. He doesn't feel the need for food anymore, but eating and drinking a little is also a good experience. Especially water, which he doesn't really need right now, but that drinking water can stabilize his mood. Ashrufat didn't know what it was for, and Carrie didn't mention it.

"Master, let's think about the happier things. For example, now you have a big harem in your dark castle......"

Ashrufat almost squirted water out of his mouth.

"Having said that, Scarlet and Leia are really qualified as wives. Carrie didn't seem to notice Eshurufat's embarrassment and continued. "The wife helps her husband build a harem, this behavior is commendable......"

"Carrie, are you telling the truth?"

"It's a joke, of course. Carrie suddenly appeared in Ashrufat's field of vision. This time, she was wearing the same clothes that Ylang had worn before, and of course, she still had a rabbit-eared hat on her head. "But they've done their job perfectly, haven't they? no one in this world knows that you've left Sivania. With my doppelganger and your double working together, they made everything perfect. Everything went according to plan. ”

After so many things had happened, Ashrufat was now cautiously skeptical of any "plan".......

"Especially since they've put together an entire guard for you. All of them are beautiful girls......"

Ashrufat suddenly remembered that Carrie had vaguely said this, but he didn't care at the time. It seems that Carrie can't care less about anything she says.

"It's your plan. Eshuruphat unceremoniously pointed out Carrie's fallacy.

"Hey...... Carrie smiled. "You do need a team of guards, though. ”

Ashrufat remembered that during previous wars, he had kept the Grave Guards his guards. It must be said that this powerful undead creature is very suitable for this job. But that's only a wartime option. As Carrie once said, there is no benefit to being dangling around with such a team of undead creatures after the war, except for unnecessary panic.

"When we first got the Dark Castle, due to the limitations of the equipment's performance, we couldn't do the biochemical modification we wanted. Because the failure rate is too high...... Only a special individual like Scarlet can be used as a suitable test subject. Carrie said seriously. "If it were an ordinary human, there was a high possibility of death during the transformation, and there was also a high possibility that they would lose their minds...... That is, to go crazy...... In short, we can't organize a guard for you in this way. ”

"But after we got the chip from the portal, things were completely different. With the help of that chip, we can not only cure Mimilu, who was mortally injured, but also greatly improve the ability of biochemical modification. Now, thanks to the improved performance of the equipment, even ordinary humans are able to accept that level of modification. ”

"In other words, anyone can become like Scarlet?" Ashruphat was impressed by Scarlet's strength. You must know that Scarlet is a girl who has not undergone any rigorous training, but she can reach that level in a very short period of time...... In contrast, Ashrufat had gone through countless exercises and actual combat to have such a level of combat power.

That's what it means. However, the master, considering some other aspects, so the objects of selection are all beautiful girls. Carrie explained with a smile. "And all with some degree of mind control. In short, their loyalty is completely guaranteed, and you don't have to worry about it in any way. ”

Ashrufat didn't know what to say for a while.

"In any case, Mill City is not far from here. Carrie looks into the distance, or rather, her visions make a "looking" pose. "Master, if we expand our power, we must take the city as a bridgehead. ”

Without waiting for Ashrufat to reply, Carrie immediately continued. "If it is directly occupied by force, it may cause the entire Anthropocene world to be vigilant, and it is likely to repeat the scene of the coalition attacking Callean. It's too risky to do that. So I'd suggest using a more secure approach. We have plenty of time to buy and infiltrate the middle and lower classes of the city little by little. In this way, Mill City is still part of Ryan on the surface, but in reality it is under our control. Using this as a bridgehead, we find a way to create division and hostility within Ryan's land...... Backed by the power of your undead legion, cultivate a force of allegiance within the nation that will be loyal to you...... We can certainly do it by using money, faith, knowledge, and even immortality as bait, and force as an aid! All we need is patience!"

"What are you talking about, Carrie?" asked Ashrufat, a little puzzled.

"Of course, it's our plan to conquer this world. Great plans must be broken down into steps. ”
