Chapter 3708 Heloise’s Little Thoughts

Faced with Herder's questioning, I sighed and said, "Favor, Lord Apostle, is the hardest thing to repay."

Held glanced at me with a complicated expression, and then changed the subject: "Have all the second batch of people been delivered?"

I nodded: "Send him to the mansion, where he is being guarded by your people."

Held nodded to make it clear.

We didn't talk about anything after that, we just stayed there without saying anything. About half an hour later, after finishing the wine in the bottle, I got up and walked away.

Before he could go out, he was stopped by Held.

"If there is anyone who is willing to come here to help, please contact us," Held said. "Otherwise, when the Demon Realm is captured, Zephyr Continent will become a battlefield."

After a moment of silence, I said: "The Zephyr Continent is now a battlefield."

Held didn't say anything more. Although she didn't know very well, she definitely had a certain understanding of the situation in Zephyr Continent - I don't believe she would stop putting puppets in Zephyr Continent.

Held is not a peaceful person. If she can, she will do whatever it takes for the prosperity of the demon world.

The war came as expected.

Because of the help of Casillas, it was easier to fight.

The second group of corpse thieves were also sent to the city gate to watch the war scene. They were also frightened and trembling, and they were at a loss.

After the war, they were informed by the guards that they needed to cooperate with the adventurers to clean up the battlefield.

The body thief had no choice but to obey orders.

During my evening break, I went to the tavern to listen to the adventurers bragging.

Heloise happened to be here, saw me coming, and waved to me.

Seeing that she was alone, I sat across from her and ordered a glass of champagne.

"You don't usually drink," Heloise said.

"Occasionally I feel like drinking," I said, "For example, right now."

Heloise suddenly came closer to me, lowered her voice, and said, "I saw them."

"Who?" I asked,

"Those people you brought," Heloise lowered her voice and said, "They are not from the demon world, are they?"

"Yes," I said, "They are from Hefeng Continent."

"They are strong," Heloise said, "I can feel it."

"It seems your perception has become sharper" I said with a smile.

"No," Heloise said, "A few days ago, I saw one of them beating up a very powerful adventurer from the Kaxiu sect on the street."

"Street murder?" I asked in surprise: "Isn't this against the rules?"

"It seems you still don't understand the rules of the demon world very well," Heloise said, "In the demon world, as long as you are strong enough, you can do whatever you want."

"In other words, I can do whatever I want in the demon world?"

"Yes," Heloise said, "Then, what do you want to do?"

"I don't want to do anything. My favorite thing is to do nothing."

"Tch, no ideals," Heloise said disdainfully.

"What do you know? What is true is the ordinary. What is ordinary? Doing nothing is the most ordinary. Therefore, doing nothing is the most meaningful."

"No more talking about that," Heloise said, "I'm curious, what do your people do?"

"Criminals," I said, "They are all body snatchers."

"The body thief?" Heloise asked doubtfully, "What is that?"

"He is the one who kills his compatriots," I said.

"Killing compatriots!" Heloise said in shock: "This is simply an unforgivable crime!"

"Yes" I nodded: "Of course, if they did not kill their compatriots, they would have committed the same crime, but the former is a murderer and the latter is a fraud."

"Fraud?" Heloise frowned and said, "You mean, they didn't treat those companions as companions?"

"That's right," I said, "By the way, are there such people in your demon world?"

"There are so many," Heloise said, "There are at least dozens of people who saved me."

"The devil world is really chaotic." I thought for a while and asked, "Are there any corresponding laws?"

"No," Heloise said, "Didn't I say that in the demon world, it is common for the weak to prey on the strong."

"Perhaps it is for this reason," I said, "that this kind of situation is prevalent in the devil world."

"In Zephyr Continent, this kind of behavior is a crime, and you will be imprisoned in the deepest part of the dungeon and never see the light of day."

"Then if the other party is a powerful adventurer, wouldn't this be a waste of resources?" Heloise asked confused.

"There are so many powerful people in Zefeng Continent," I explained: "With a few thousand or eight hundred such powerful people, there will be no loss. On the contrary, if they are not punished, once a war breaks out, you can guarantee that they will not be there." Stab you in the back?"

Heloise thought hard and replied, "I can't guarantee it."

"That's it," I said, "Since you are a strong man who can't guarantee when he will stab you, what's the point of regretting it?"

"Xiaoyi," Heloise suddenly called me in a very sticky voice, which shocked me into goosebumps.

"What's going on?" I asked, startled.

"That's it. Can you also find some body snatchers for me?"

"What do you want to do?" I asked puzzled.

"Be my subordinate," Heloise said: "With a guy like this as my subordinate, my strength will quickly become stronger!"

She said it with all her heart.

"Don't make trouble," I said, "If you really want to treat that kind of guy as your subordinate, I'm afraid you won't survive more than three chapters."

Heloise frowned: "Why do you say that?"

"Think about it," I said: "Those guys are able to pretend to be each other's companions and ruthlessly kill each other for profit. Do you really think that you can conquer each other with your charm?"

"I can leave them to Xi Lan to manage."

"Do you think Xi Lan will act according to your instructions?" I asked, and then I paused and said: "I didn't speak rigorously enough. What I mean is, do you think Xi Lan will do what you want?" So, do you manage the corpse thieves conscientiously?"

"Absolutely," Heloise said.

"Don't think about it," I said, "He won't do what you want. If possible, he would rather drink and have fun every day. This is his favorite thing."

Heloise pursed her lips, looking very unhappy.

I understand Heloise's desire for talents, but if the corpse snatchers are to serve under her command, Heloise will definitely not live long.

Even with Xi Lan's protection, it would be the same.

Don't forget, Xilan loves to drink, and once he goes drinking, Heloise will be alone.

Alone, Heloise's strength is comparable to that of an adventurer of around level 10. The general strength of corpse thieves is around level 6, but there are so many of them and they are so insidious.

An inattentive stabbing in the back left Heloise with no chance to resist.

Don't forget, although she can fight evenly with level 10 adventurers in a short period of time, she is an auxiliary type of adventurer!
