Surviving The Fourth Calamity-Chapter 1554 - 132: A Hidden Arrow from Eden

The earth slowly transported Hill to the mountaintop, leaving only a completely transformed rocky mountain below him.

Even with Aesces’s alchemical tools, which excel at digging mine tunnels, it would take at least a year of relentless digging, day and night, to excavate this seamless mountain range to its core.

And given how close this mountain range is to Stelter Castle, it’s impossible to move earth here without alerting anyone.

Hill glanced lightly at the tall castle... Very well, someone has already noticed his presence.

Heh~ Those with guilty consciences must be extremely anxious right now, aren’t they?

Ellie was discussing with a few Undead Tribe girls what makeup would look fresh and natural, while also covering some small flaws on her face, when she learned that Great Sage Belfran appeared in the back mountain.

Although the people from this family spoke very nicely after they arrived, Ellie still felt that the words spoken by Miss Nishang’s subordinates were more convincing.

Furthermore, Ellie clearly understood that people who don’t even participate in such a total war aren’t worth trusting at all.

Don’t say that logistical personnel don’t need to fight, as long as they provide resources it’s okay.

Coming from a family with military achievements, Ellie couldn’t be easily fooled.

Aren’t logistics personnel always ready to support at the camp in the rear?

Who knows when an urgent supply may be needed during a war.

Moreover, those people from Nishang’s family are genuine business people, and their attitude towards her was closer to business cooperation. Their words never had that subtle defamation of other families, they just wanted to earn her money.

However, at this moment, such a merchant family stayed at the camp and didn’t come to talk with her about makeup.

Ellie felt this family, seeking to covertly gain power and profit, was very foolish... How could their Stelter Family influence the power structure of the Undead Tribe?

Even for Great Sage Ismael, it might be very difficult.

Even if she was moved by these people and announced that Basia City would only accept certain families, what impact would that have on other families?

Ellie couldn’t see it.

The survival resources and military supplies of the Undead Tribe are not something that Basia City needs to provide.

So, she felt this family had no future whatsoever, and her attitude towards these young ladies was quite haughty... It’s the inherent right of a noble lady.

Since you want to get benefits beyond the bottom line from me, which definitely aren’t mutually beneficial, you better show some humility.

Ellie’s attitude towards Bai Nishang was very natural... Although the other party was also earning her money, it was a business they both entered willingly.

Ellie was in this stance of being the center of attention when she heard news from the maid.

Her face turned pale immediately: "Why did Great Sage Belfran suddenly go... to the back mountain?"

A golden-haired, green-eyed girl with a curvy figure laughed: "Maybe the commander from Snow Cloud Peak asked him to check if there were any underground passages near the coast?

Hill always has a good temper, and as long as the reason is sufficient, he usually helps.

Especially because that Great Commander has always had a close relationship with him."

"Are they really that close?" Ellie’s expression returned to its natural state, seeming as if she was just surprised by Hill’s appearance and not caught on anything by him.

The Undead girls around her exchanged meaningful glances... Although they are not as subtle as the Easterners, they aren’t oblivious to such an obvious change in emotion.

If it weren’t for ’Nadia’, their leader, speaking first and suppressing their urge to speak with her eyes... They would have teamed up to give this woman a piece of their mind already!

Really, who wouldn’t understand her expression?

These noble things, heh~

Not everyone likes them.

It’s quite annoying, who isn’t the leading lady of their own world?

Such an extremely pretentious woman... Just like a high school cheerleader with some ability, some power, feeling entirely entitled!

However, back then, the cheerleader’s value was enough to keep them quiet, but in a game?

They’re not really that interested in playing a game of Westerlies overthrowing Easterlies... It’s just fun without spending their own money, so they’re willing to casually partake.

But continuing to deal with this Ellie, maybe those unlucky guys’ offering are not quite enough!

How can this woman, surrounded by such stunning women as them, still firmly believe that she’s beautiful enough to sway Hill?

Moreover, with so many beautiful girls among the Undead Tribe, truly she hasn’t seen them?

Just like a small town cheerleader who thinks that a handsome star, who has seen the top beauties across the entire Interstellar Alliance, would fall in love with her for doing some leg stretches!

The result of dreaming infatuated fantasies, isn’t it obvious now?

Who among the Undead Tribe doesn’t know about Hill’s ability to be unseen?

He openly appears there, and Ellie shows such a guilty demeanor... Tsk tsk~

So, the reason a star knows a small-town girl is probably because her crimes could be on interstellar news, right?

The atmosphere on the scene is a bit tense.

It’s just that Ellie, being so uncertain, didn’t sense that slight sarcasm flowing in the air.

’Nadia’ couldn’t let Ellie perceive their emotions... She earned quite a lot, and didn’t really wish for failure.

She quickly smiled and said, "Indeed, when we were first summoned as the Undead Tribe, the Snow Cloud Peak Commander came, and then he got acquainted with Hill.

We all arrived quite late, so we don’t have such a close relationship with Hill.

Speaking of... The one closest to Hill might be Miss ’Cunlü’ of the Black Rose, right?"

"Miss?" Ellie indeed focused on this point.

"Yes... A famous otherworldly beauty, talented in singing and dancing.

In another world, she caused a Great Sage-level strong-minded person to falter mentally just with a performance, leading to their fall!" ’Nadia’ said with a face full of longing, "In our Undead Tribe, her reputation is quite prominent~

However, she doesn’t like combat, so she didn’t get the first round of access to Aesces.

But, tomorrow, she’s going to arrive."

Ellie blinked: "I thought you didn’t have gender distinctions?"

She still didn’t quite trust what they said.

"You know about our Undead Tribe’s animal companions, right?" ’Nadia’ smiled mysteriously. "Most of the animal companions of Snow Cloud Peak’s alliance members were contracted from Hill’s territory!"

"What’s so strange about that?" Ellie, of course, knew about it long ago and didn’t find it anything unusual... Great Sage Belfran has always been a very gentle person, very willing to extend a helping hand to those in need, be it people or animals.

"But, Cunlü the beauty contracted an animal companion from Hill’s family, you know~" ’Nadia’ said in a quiet voice, "Moreover, she was the first to sign a partner contract as an Undead Tribe member. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Look on our tablet, we have records of great achievements... Cunlü’s name is on the first page!

It’s said that Hill stayed up all night to make the Contract Book for her—mind you, it requires a deity’s witnessing, can you imagine how much effort he put in!"

Ellie sharply clenched her fist, then quickly relaxed it... She couldn’t fall for this trick.

She must investigate it thoroughly!

Black Rose’s Cunlü, right?

But she can’t ask this family... Ellie knew that the Undead Tribe had split into two factions.

She quickly thought of Bai Nishang.

Then abandoned the idea in a flash... Bai Nishang never meddles in unrelated matters, never speaks unrelated words. Ask her anything and she just smiles without a word, not even sharing the well-known news about Hill.

But with other families, Ellie wasn’t quite trusting... They all seemed to have their own stances, and add those male members who always spoke sweetly with evident intentions... She’d better ask members from Nishang’s family.

As long as Bai Nishang isn’t present, those girls are willing to share some gossip.
