Yesterday I had something to do, so I was only able to update one chapter. My sincere apologies, I will try my best to make up for it today, please rest assured.

The two quickly entered the Forgotten Valley. Zhao Hai didn't put away Alien, he didn't need to. If his identity was a Black Mage, then bringing Alien with him wouldn't be excessive. Especially in the wild, no one would care. But generally, when entering a city, Black Mages would put away their summoned beasts or undead.
The sides of the valley weren't very steep, but two gentle slopes with some shrubs and weeds growing on them. But it can be seen that the trees here were much stronger than the ones in the castle. At the very least, they seemed to be full of vitality, unlike the ones in the castle, where the trees looked like they were suffering from a serious illness.
There was no one to be seen in the Forgotten Valley, only the occasional sound of insects could be heard.
Looking at the slopes on both sides, Green turned to Zhao Hai and said, "Young Master, after going up the mountain, find a place and immediately enter the space. I'll go to Montenegro to buy some clothes. When I come back, we'll go to Montenegro together."
Zhao Hai nodded, then he directed Alien to climb up the mountain. Alien was now just a skeleton, but its claws were still very sharp, so it didn't take much effort to climb the mountain.
Although they were still in Iron Mountain, the trees here were much stronger than the ones in the castle. There were thick trees everywhere, Zhao Hai couldn't name them.
He couldn't tell the difference between the trees here and the ones on Earth. When he was on Earth, he knew very little about these trees. In addition to common species like poplar, willow, elm, and pine, he didn't recognize any other trees.
Green sat next to Zhao Hai, looking at the trees, he said, "Young Master, the woods here are very dangerous. Not only are there magic beasts coming in and out from time to time, there are also some plants that are very poisonous, so you must be careful."
Zhao Hai nodded. Although he had never been to such a primitive forest before, this place was very famous on the internet. Generally, people who wrote novels would set this place as a very dangerous scene. Even those realistic novels would describe the forest as a dangerous place. Moreover, this world had magical beasts, so of course he would be more careful.
The vegetation on the mountain was very intact, and one could see all kinds of trees everywhere. Moreover, once one entered the forest, the light would dim, making one feel gloomy and cold.
The two walked into the woods for a while before they found a secluded place. The two ran out of Xenomorph. Zhao Hai directly received Xenomorph into the Space. Then Zhao Hai and Green also entered the Space.
The corn on the ground in the space was still growing strong, the oily rice was still healthy, and the slaves were still learning how to write. Merlin didn't have much to do now. Other than teaching the slaves how to write, she could only prepare three meals a day.
However, it couldn't be said that she was completely fine. This time, in the castle, Zhao Hai took the stones that Ann and the others had mined and stored them in the Space. This way, Ann and the others could try to make some rollers and grinds them.
Moreover, this time, Zhao Hai also took a lot of grasses into the Space. He wanted the slaves to have something to do. If people only studied, they wouldn't be able to do anything. Therefore, he wanted them to do these things.
Needless to say, the effect was surprisingly good. For the slaves, this work was not a problem at all. It was a perfect combination of work and rest.
When Merlin saw the two come in, she was surprised. These days, if there wasn't anything important, then Green and Zhao Hai wouldn't enter the Space. If they wanted to meet the two, then they would have to leave the Space.
Merlin quickly greeted them and said, "Young Master, Green, how did you come in? Did something happen? "
Green smiled and said, "It's nothing. Right now, we're in Forgotten Valley. We're in the woods of Iron Mountain. I told the Young Master to stay in the Space for a while. I'll go to Montenegro Fortress to get two sets of clothes and then go out."
Merlin, of course, understood Green's meaning. She nodded and said, "Good, then you go quickly. We'll wait for you here. Right, remember this place. Don't lose your way when the time comes."
These days, Merlin was in a good mood. In any case, the Buda clan was going to have an income. This was the first time since the Buda clan's disaster that they had an income. Although the money wasn't in their hands, this represented hope.
Zhao Hai turned to Green and said, "Grandpa Green, you should also be careful. Right now, our identities can't be exposed. Otherwise, I'm afraid we'll be unlucky. It doesn't matter if we can't sell the radishes. We can wait for a while until the wind passes. Your safety is the most important thing."
Green's face showed a trace of a warm smile. He patted Zhao Hai's shoulder and said, "Young Master, rest assured. If I don't see the Buda clan's revival, these old bones won't be willing to die." Then he laughed.
If it was before, Green wouldn't have made such an action to Zhao Hai. That was because he and Adam weren't that close. Adam also hated Green very much. How could the two of them make such an intimate action?
But now, Adam's body contained Zhao Hai's soul. Zhao Hai was an otaku and also an orphan. But he was born in China. China paid particular attention to filial piety. Although Green and Merlin were his servants in name, ever since he woke up, Merlin and Merlin had always taken care of him. This made Zhao Hai unnaturally develop a kind of respect and love for his elders.
Zhao Hai's change was quickly noticed by Merlin and Green. Both of them had children. They were very sensitive to the emotional changes of children. It was precisely because they discovered this change in Zhao Hai that Green would make such an action to Zhao Hai. Otherwise, with Green's old-fashioned character, it was impossible to do so.
Zhao Hai didn't have a bit of disgust when Green patted his shoulder. He just felt the love and care of an elder for a younger generation. But he didn't say anything. He was a very reserved person and wouldn't reveal his feelings too much. So he just nodded and said to Green, "Well, Grandpa Green, I'll send you out. Green clicked on the industry-university-research button. Zhao Hai's mind moved, and Green came out of the space.
Green paid attention to the surrounding environment. He left some marks in a few corners that people didn't pay attention to, and then flew to Montenegro Fortress.
Green was an old man. He was very clear about the style of adventurers, so he didn't have any scruples. In reality, those who were paying attention to the Buda clan were the great nobles. And those great nobles couldn't put their energy on them. After all, the Buda clan was no longer a threat to those great nobles. And those people didn't want to provoke Green and Merlin, these two powerful figures.
And those ordinary adventurers wouldn't pay attention to the Buda clan. Now that no one had issued a mission to deal with the Buda clan, the Buda clan didn't have the ability to hire them. Those adventurers didn't have the time to take care of a declining noble.
The real threat to the Buda clan was none other than the Purcell clan. In the past, the relationship between the Purcell clan and the Buda clan was very good. The two families were also preparing for a marriage. But since the fall of the Buda clan, the Purcell clan didn't mention any marriage. On the contrary, they wanted the Buda clan to perish.
There was almost no love in aristocratic marriages, only benefits. In the past, the Purcell clan and the Buda clan had a marriage alliance because the Buda clan could bring them benefits.
But now that the Buda clan had fallen, for the Purcell clan, the Buda clan didn't have any value. In this case, how could they still honor the marriage agreement?
The Purcell clan didn't want to honor the marriage agreement, but they had the same problem as the other aristocrats. They wanted to save face.
One must know that the Buda clan was now completely suppressed. But because of this, they were weak. If the Purcell clan and the Buda clan were to break off the marriage agreement, then the Purcell clan's reputation in the aristocratic circle would be ruined. The Purcell clan wouldn't do such an idiotic thing.
Therefore, there were only two ways to dissolve the engagement. One was for the Buda clan to take the initiative to dissolve the engagement. Although everyone knew that even if the Buda clan took the initiative to dissolve the engagement, it would be because they were forced by the Purcell clan. But at the very least, it would still be acceptable.
The other way was even simpler. It was for the Buda clan to perish and Adam Buda to die. This way, the Purcell clan wouldn't have to fulfill the marriage agreement.
In fact, Green also thought about breaking off the marriage agreement with the Purcell clan. But at that time, Zhao Hai hadn't woken up yet, so he couldn't make the decision. Green was also angry with the Purcell clan. When the Buda clan needed help, the Purcell clan chose to stand by and watch. Otherwise, the Buda clan wouldn't have fallen to this point. After all, the Purcell clan was a powerful clan in the Empire, a force that couldn't be underestimated.
It was because of this resentment towards the Purcell clan that Green didn't tell Zhao Hai about breaking off the marriage agreement. He wanted to keep it that way. Your Purcell clan didn't help us and let us fall to this point, I won't let you live well.
Green was very clear about the aristocrats' problems with saving face. So he was sure that the Purcell clan wouldn't take the initiative to break off the marriage agreement. They would only put pressure on the Buda clan and let them take the initiative to break off the marriage agreement.
However, Green didn't want to break off the marriage agreement. He knew that the Purcell clan wouldn't let them off, but they had too many things to do. There were too many threats. One more wasn't a big deal, one less wasn't a big deal.
Although he said this, Green was still very careful. This was because the only entrance to the Black Waste was the Purcell clan. Now that they were a thorn in the Purcell clan's side, the Purcell clan would certainly pay attention to their movements. So he was very careful.
