Ten days, an entire ten days, the people of Casa City discovered that carts and carts of all kinds of supplies were constantly being pulled into Faith Mansion. The entire Faith Mansion was like a giant beast that could never eat its fill, constantly devouring those things. They could only see what was going in, but not what was going out.
Although the people of Casa City found it strange, they didn't say anything. The things that Laura chose were very appropriate. In addition to the things that were already in Faith Mansion, the other things were things that could be used in the Beastman Prairie.
It must be known that things that were suitable for Casa City weren't necessarily suitable for the people of the Beastman Prairie. The things that the people of the Beastman Prairie needed were different from the things that the commoners of Casa City needed.
It was because of this that their actions didn't cause any fluctuations in the prices of daily necessities in the Purcell Duchy. Those large firms were also very willing to sell these things to Laura.
The hands and feet of those large firms weren't necessarily clean. They often did business with the beastmen and smuggled these things. Therefore, when they saw Laura buy these things, they knew what Laura wanted to do. These people didn't stop her. In any case, if they sold these things to Laura, they would only earn less. However, the money would come quickly, and these things could be quickly transported from the rear. There was nothing strange about it.
On the tenth night after Zhao Hai arrived in Casa City, Zhao Hai, Laura, Quinn John, Green, and the others gathered in Laura's study.
Laura was holding a situation in her hand. She said to everyone, "I just received news about the situation in the Purcell Duchy. Today, several mercenaries suddenly entered the Purcell Duchy and are moving towards Casa City. The situation is unclear."
Quinn John coldly snorted and said, "What's there to be unclear about? Aren't they just here to deal with us? They certainly know that Zhao Hai went to Casa City. This time, they want to wipe us out."
Green nodded. "I think so too. Hmph. Let them come. Tidy them up and we'll immediately withdraw. I want to see what they can do to us."
Laura turned to Zhao Hai and said, "Big Brother Hai, shouldn't we deal with Alodia and the others? Why didn't you do anything to them these days? "
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "It's time to deal with them. They've known too much in the past few days. I didn't want to kill these people who don't have the strength to fight back, but now I have no choice but to kill them."
When Zhao Hai said this, Laura and the others understood that Zhao Hai wanted to find an excuse to kill Alodia and the others.
This kind of behavior might seem ridiculous, but in a sense, this kind of behavior also had its merits. At the very least, it made Zhao and the others feel a little better.
After eating dinner in the evening, Alodia and the others returned to their rooms. All of their weapons had been taken away. Through these days of observation, Alodia also knew that Laura and the others had already made up their minds to kill them.
However, Alodia couldn't do anything about it. They didn't have any weapons, and they were surrounded by the undead. No one could escape.
The only thing they could do now was to stay in their rooms. If Laura really wanted to kill them, they could only go all out against her.
Sorrow. Alodia felt an unprecedented sorrow. He thought about how high-spirited he used to be. In the entire Aksu Empire, no matter where he went, as long as he revealed his identity as Carlo's steward, no one would dare to look down on him. But now, he had fallen to this point, waiting for death. He was like a blue-eyed rabbit that had been transported to the slaughterhouse, waiting for someone to stab him with a knife. This feeling was really too uncomfortable.
It wasn't that he didn't want to resist, but it was useless. No matter how much trouble they caused, the Undead wouldn't care about them. But as soon as they got close to the Undead, the Undead would immediately attack them. They wouldn't kill them, they would just break their arms and throw them into the courtyard. It was that simple.
If they were humans, then Alodia could try to get in touch with them. He could try to give them some benefits and have them spare his life. But unfortunately, they weren't facing humans, but undead. A group of undead that wouldn't talk to him and wouldn't be bribed. Even if Alodia had all kinds of schemes, he wouldn't be able to use them.
These past few days of mental torment made Alodia feel as if he had aged ten years. He really didn't think that he would have such a day. He also didn't think that Laura would be so ruthless. She had raised them and was ready to slaughter them at any time.
But these past few days, there was a belief supporting him. He believed that Carlo would send someone to save him. As Carlo's trusted steward, Alodia was very clear that Carlo didn't only have the Markey Dell clan behind him. He also had Southern King Boris. At a critical moment, Carlo would certainly ask Boris to act. This was the spiritual pillar that Alodia was able to persevere on.
These past few days, Alodia had been diligently collecting information about Laura. As long as they didn't leave the courtyard, they could move freely in the courtyard of Faith Mansion. Alodia wanted to collect more information about Laura so that he could use it in the future.
Alodia was very clear about what Laura had been doing these past few days. It was precisely because he saw Laura's actions that Alodia was even more determined to survive. What Laura was doing now clearly indicated that they were going to run away. If they were going to run away, then there was only one explanation: the enemy was coming.
Laura's enemy was only one, Carlo. It was precisely because he saw this point that Alodia was even more determined to survive.
At the same time, Alodia also noticed that there were several warehouses in the backyard of Faith Mansion. The warehouses seemed to never be full. Carts after carts of things were pulled in, and empty carts came out. But he didn't find that the warehouses were full. It was as if the warehouses were bottomless pits.
Alodia didn't think that there would be spatial equipment in the warehouse. He just thought that the warehouse must have some sort of secret passage or something to transport the things in the warehouse to the outside. He secretly wrote down this information and prepared to tell it to Carlo.
But Alodia also knew that it would be very difficult. Laura wouldn't let them go, especially when he saw the carts of supplies being pulled into Faith Mansion. When Laura didn't avoid them, Alodia knew that Laura certainly wouldn't let them go. But Alodia still held onto a glimmer of hope that he would be able to survive.
That night, as usual, Alodia had already counted. It had been ten days since Laura had started transporting a large number of things to Faith Mansion. Logically speaking, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that the things that had been transported were piled up all over Faith Mansion. But strangely, those things had disappeared after entering Faith Mansion. Alodia really didn't know where Laura had taken those things in the end.
Alodia quietly lay on his bed, thinking about Laura's actions these past few days. He didn't understand why Laura had suddenly acted this way. Why had she suddenly dared to challenge Carlo? What was she relying on? Was it just because of Evan's words? Wasn't that unlikely?
While he was thinking about this, Alodia suddenly smelled a fragrance. The fragrance was getting stronger and stronger, and he suddenly felt that it was becoming more and more difficult to breathe. Alodia suddenly woke up, wanting to jump out of bed to warn everyone that Laura had released poison.
But even though his head gave the order to jump, his body didn't carry it out. His body seemed to weigh a thousand pounds and simply didn't listen to his commands. He wanted to shout, but he found that even opening his mouth was strenuous. Alodia couldn't help but marvel. What kind of poison was this? It was unexpectedly so fierce. This was his last thought.
This poison was, of course, the poison of the rainbow flower. It was released by Zhao Hai under Cai 'er's orders. Alodia and the others had to die, but they couldn't make too much noise. Therefore, Zhao Hai had Cai' er release the poison.
Now, because of the strengthening of the space, the poison of the rainbow flower was much more powerful than before. In the past, the poison of the rainbow flower could only be regarded as a slow-acting poison. But now, it had been integrated with the toxicity of the space's insecticide, turning it into a highly toxic poison.
That night, Alodia and the others died silently, without even raising a single wave. Zhao Hai had turned them into undead, but Alodia didn't know much. Besides knowing that Carlo had a relationship with Boris, he didn't know as much as Leica and the others.
Although he did talk about Carlo's situation, it wasn't important. Compared to the powerful Southern King Boris, Carlo was, at best, a jumping clown.
On the eleventh day, Laura and the others stopped transporting supplies to Faith Mansion. These days, they had brought in too many supplies. If they continued, it might affect the Purcell Duchy's daily necessities market. Laura didn't want to offend the Purcell clan at this last moment.
Laura also began to send people away. Therefore, those who wanted to become free civilians were given money by Laura and allowed to go home. The remaining people were diehard loyalists who would follow Laura. Quinn John had already counted them. There were a total of fifty-four of them. Twenty-two of them were warriors, while the rest were slaves that Laura had brought with her when she came to the Purcell Duchy.
These people weren't stewards, and the things they did weren't very important. However, it had to be said that they were Laura's most loyal subordinates. Among them, three were carpenters, three were blacksmiths, and six were responsible for taking care of Laura's magic beasts. In the words of Earth, these people were coachmen.
In addition to these people, the rest were their family members. There were men and women among them. The men were generally servants, while the women were maids or cooks.
In addition to Laura, Quinn John, Nier, Karen, Kiel, and Shawn, a total of sixty people had joined the Buda clan. Starting today, they were no longer people of the Markey Dell clan, but people of the Buda clan.
