In the underground world, dark elves were kings and reigned supreme. However, once dark elves appeared on the surface of Profound Continent, they would be captured as prey by humans.
The beauty of female elves, and the attainments of male elves in the field of magical weapons, were irresistible to humans. On Profound Continent, there had never been a lack of hunters hunting elves, especially female elves. They had even become the signboard of a great aristocrat.
This beautiful dark elf by the name of Kroely was actually able to maintain her virginity among dark elves with an innately lecherous nature. This piqued Han Shuo's interest. As soon as they left the underground world, Han Shuo asked, "Kroely, why did Shialan and the others send you to me as a slave? Were you coerced by them? "
Kroely had a terrified expression on her face. She hastily kowtowed to Han Shuo and said, "Master, you are the benefactor of us dark elves. It is my honor to serve you."
Han Shuo waved his hand and did not continue to speak. However, he had some doubts along the way. He felt that Kroely seemed somewhat familiar. But after carefully thinking for a long time, he was certain that he had never met her before.
"Brian, I have a few words to discuss with you alone!" The imprisoned dark dragon patriarch, Gilges, suddenly said after exiting the underground world.
Han Shuo stared blankly for a moment, but soon after, he nodded and said to Kroely, "Leave us for a moment!"
Kroely shot a glance at Gilges, replied respectfully, "Yes, Master." Then, she left the place.
After Kroely was far away, Han Shuo watched as Gilbert put down the cage that imprisoned his grandfather. He then saw Gilges looking at Kroely from afar. He creased his brows and said, "Brian, I feel that there's something wrong with that dark elf. There's something familiar about her."
Upon hearing Gilges' words, Han Shuo's heart tightened. He immediately cried out in alarm, "You feel the same way too?"
"I don't know why, but when I was in the tunnel just now, this dark elf kept sizing me up in the darkness. I feel that she wants to harm me," Gilges said in a low voice with his brows creased. Gilges furrowed his brows and said in a low voice. Soon after, he appeared a little embarrassed, "But, it might be because I'm old, and a little too nervous and sensitive!"
Han Shuo didn't think so. The older one was, the more they would notice the details. They had an insight that younger people couldn't have. With regards to this Kroely, Han Shuo had always felt that there was something odd about her. Now that he heard Gilges' words, he immediately became vigilant.
Gazing at the slender, graceful, and charming dark elf in the distance, Han Shuo couldn't help but cautiously release his consciousness and slowly sense Kroely's aura. Indeed, Kroely didn't have the lewd aura that a female dark elf should have.
However, when Han Shuo used his Divine Sense to sense her seriously, he felt that Kroely really was a little unusual. It was precisely because her aura was too different from that of an ordinary female dark elf that Han Shuo felt suspicious. If he closed his eyes and didn't look at her, Han Shuo definitely wouldn't treat her as a dark elf based on his senses alone.
"Come to think of it, it's strange. Although I've lived in the underground world for many years, I haven't come into contact with many dark elves. Only that Adele that I've imprisoned has stayed with us for a longer period of time. Why do I sense a familiar aura from this young dark elf?!" While Han Shuo was slowly using his consciousness to observe Kroely, the dark dragon patriarch, Gilges, was muttering to himself.
"Grandpa, you must be mistaken. I also know that Adele. She has a bewitching aura on her. One look at her and you'll know that she's a slut. However, this Kroely feels very pure and clean. If it weren't for the fact that she indeed looks like a dark elf, I would really think that she's a forest elf! "dark dragon Gilbert interrupted.
Han Shuo was suddenly startled. Then, his eyes brightened as he stared deeply at Kroely who was standing there in the distance, revealing a pensive expression.
"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore!" Han Shuo suddenly opened his mouth, interrupting the conversation between the two. He beckoned to Kroely who was quietly standing in the distance. When Kroely came over, he smiled and said, "We still have things to do. It's not very convenient for you to follow us. Here, take this badge and go back to Brettel City first. With this badge, nothing will happen to you in Lancelot Empire."
"But Master, I don't know the way. What if I get arrested in the Dark Forest? "Kroely looked at Han Shuo timidly, appearing to be at a loss of what to do.
"Head north from here and you'll reach the Valley of Sunshine in two days. If you have any more questions, just take this badge and tell Trunks that you're my maid. You're a dark elf, so your life won't be in danger even if you're captured. With this badge, my friends will naturally let you go, and my enemies will use you to blackmail me. In short, you won't die. Don't worry! "Han Shuo comforted.
After Han Shuo had been conferred the title of a Marquis, he naturally had a complete set of noble status symbols. This badge with the beautiful pattern of a sword and shield was Han Shuo's unique identity symbol. It also had a magical imprint, making it impossible for ordinary people to forge. Of course, those who had the strength to forge it would also disdain to do such a senseless thing.
Kroely looked at Han Shuo anxiously. Although Han Shuo seemed amiable, his tone was firm. She knew that as a servant, she had no right to bargain. Even if Han Shuo were to kill her now, that would be her fate. Therefore, the clever Kroely could only take the badge and said meekly, "Understood, Master. I hope I'll have the chance to see you again!"
"Definitely!" Han Shuo said with certainty.
After Kroely left, Han Shuo sneered, "Playing this game with me, those dark elves are indeed tired of living!"
"Brian, what's going on?" The dark dragon chief, Gilges, had long since noticed the inkling and couldn't help but ask.
"I can sense the aura of the Spider Goddess Lolth, whom the dark elves worship, on Kroely's body. Back then, I was nearly killed by a sneak attack. I'm afraid that the one who attacked me from behind was that so-called Spider Goddess Lolth. It seems that this Kroely is targeting me again, "Han Shuo explained to Gilges with a gloomy face.
Gilges was very surprised at Han Shuo's misfortune, but he didn't ask any more questions. He knew that there were some things that Han Shuo wouldn't say, so it wouldn't be appropriate for him to ask.
"Let's go!" Han Shuo instructed Gilbert and headed in the direction of the Cemetery of Death.
After carefully weighing in his mind, Han Shuo ultimately didn't bring the dark dragons to the Cemetery of Death. Although Han Shuo believed in Gilges, there was more than one dark dragon in the cage. Han Shuo couldn't guarantee that they wouldn't reveal the location of the Cemetery of Death at some point in the future.
The Cemetery of Death was indeed shrouded in a powerful boundary. Without the skeletal staff, it was impossible to open the Cemetery of Death. However, nothing was absolute. Han Shuo naturally wouldn't think that the boundary of the Cemetery of Death was invincible. Otherwise, those evil mages who were researching necromancy magic inside wouldn't have suffered such heavy losses.
Han Shuo didn't bring the dark dragons to the Cemetery of Death. Instead, he brought them into the Forest Troll's tribe and returned to the Cemetery of Death alone.
All these years, the Forest Troll had always lived under the arrangements of dark dragon Gilbert. They had long since regarded Gilbert and Han Shuo as the emissary of the great goddess Dadara in the human world.
The Valley of Sunshine wasn't far from the Dark Forest. When Trunks was fighting for power in the Valley of Sunshine, he had used the power of the Forest Troll through Gilbert. Afterwards, a good relationship had been established between the Forest Troll and Trunks. There was even a portion of the Forest Troll that directly migrated to Tanai Gorge near the Valley of Sunshine to live and work closely with Trunks.
After grasping power in the Valley of Sunshine, Trunks' mercenary band grew stronger by the day. In order to take revenge, Trunks put all his energy into strengthening his own strength. With Han Shuo's support behind the scenes, Trunks had established good business relationships with various races in the underground world, including the dark elves and lizardmen.
These years, Trunks had obtained extremely sizable profits through the underground world transactions. Under Han Shuo's introduction, the dwarves had treated Trunks as their second good friend. Trunks had also exchanged large amounts of resources for large amounts of sharp weapons from Tanai Dwarf Mountain.
With Gilbert's help, the Valley of Sunshine had a close relationship with the Forest Troll. Trunks provided the Forest Troll with weapons, armor, and food. Using his powerful intelligence network in Tanai Valley of Sunshine, he provided the Forest Troll with the trade routes of disobedient or disloyal caravans, allowing the Forest Troll to plunder them.
After experiencing a cruel torture worse than death, Trunks, who wasn't a good person to begin with, had become even more ruthless and decisive. With the help of Han Shuo's Brettel City and Phoebe and Emily, Trunks had completely grasped power in the Valley of Sunshine.
Trunks had tied the Soul Destroyer mercenary band, forest trolls, dwarves, lizardmen of the underground world, and even Janet's bandits together. With the Valley of Sunshine and the edge of the Dark Forest as the center, he had already formed a power that no country dared to underestimate!
