Dimensional Expedition

Chapter 122: 122. Traitor

This incident did not have much impact.

The half-elves still followed the guidance of the city hall staff, registered step by step, took photos and received their ID cards.

As the number of registered elves gradually increased, Lu Cheng could feel the happiness of the residents coming from them. At that moment... Lu Cheng discovered something very comfortable.

That is, each of these half-elves is a seal holder. Even if it is the weakest half-elf, Lu Cheng can harvest 20 to 100 grams of energy from them if she is happy.

The seven major clans were born with inscriptions, but this powerful talent also resulted in their very low fertility.

This is not a problem for Lucheng... As long as there is enough time to accumulate, these half-elves will become the backbone of Skare.

In Lu Cheng's view, Scarre is equivalent to a farmland, a farmland that can harvest energy coins.

What Lu Cheng had done before was to re-till the soil of the farmland and remove the bad insects. Now he wants to sow some high-yield seeds.

But some of these high-yield seeds seem to be poisonous

Lu Cheng's sight fell on a half-elf girl who was registering. The Holy Crystal enhanced Lu Cheng's senses, including intuition.

In the previous moment, Lu Cheng felt the murderous intent coming from the girl.

"Found the target again?"

Elena suddenly poked her head out from the lower right corner of Lu Cheng's sight.

"What do you mean by again?"

Lu Cheng gently pushed Elena's cheek away with his hand. After the princess became familiar with Lu Cheng, she would always unconsciously move her face closer.

"Nancy told me that you might be interested in younger women, like Noy." Elena repeated a piece of...useless knowledge she learned from the princess next door.

“That’s so wrong.”

As soon as Lu Cheng finished speaking, the half-elf girl that Lu Cheng had targeted came to Elena with the registration certificate.

At this moment, Lu Cheng was ready to shoot, but the other party did not do anything extreme. She successfully received the blessing from Elena and became a member of Scarre.

Lu Cheng kept watching the half-elf girl leave the city hall under the guidance of the staff.

"Skarre, keep a close eye on her." Lu Cheng whispered this order to Skarre's crystal spirit. There was nothing abnormal about the half-elf girl's appearance or behavior.

Lu Cheng now only hopes that the murderous intent he felt from her just now was just an illusion.

… … …

It's so cold.

The first thing Lottie felt when she walked out of the town hall was the cold.

The cold winter in Skare is like a nightmare to Lottie, who lives in the temperate zone of the Far South Empire.

What's worse is that she came here wearing only a thin piece of clothing, and the moment she walked out of the city hall, the biting cold wind from Scarre seemed to freeze her.

"Here, this is a warm piece of clothing I picked up for you." A half-elf man threw a military coat to Lottie.

Lottie accepted the new gift from the city hall. From Lottie's aesthetic point of view, the green military coat was not considered a good-looking piece of clothing.

But Lottie knew that she was not here for tourism. After she changed into this outfit, she suddenly felt that the cold wind around her was not so scary anymore.

The staff of the town hall were guiding the half-elves to their houses. Lottie followed behind them, pretending to be the daughter of the half-elf man.

In the end, Lottie was successfully assigned to the same residence as the two half-elf men.

"How long will we stay in this ruined city?"

Lottie reached out and wiped a wooden table in the room, which was covered with dust.

This building was once located on the commercial street of Skare. It is a two-story building with six half-elf residents living on the upper and lower floors.

Lottie's residence is on the first floor of this building.

The space inside the building cannot be said to be large, and there are no signs of human habitation for a long time.

After getting used to the favorable living conditions in the Far South Empire, they felt as uncomfortable coming to the main city of Skare again as if the city dwellers were running to live in wooden houses in the countryside.

"Our mission is to find the murderer who secretly split the seven clans, Lottie. We have successfully found the target and now we need to collect intelligence about that group of people." said the half-elf male.

"Why not find an opportunity to kill the leader directly? For example, the Queen of Scarre?" Lottie lowered his voice and communicated with the other party in a language that only his companions could understand.

This is not a universal language, but an ancient elven language that has long been lost.

Lottie and two other companions are shapeshifters trained by the Far South Empire. The process of becoming a shapeshifter is bloody and painful. The chance of transformation for each shapeshifter is as low as one in ten thousand, and the only outcome for the loser is death.

Unlike those shapeshifters who were transformed by having the shapeshifting inscription implanted in their bodies, Lottie was born with this talent... This unparalleled talent earned her a very high status in the Far South Empire.

But when it comes to gathering intelligence, she is still a rookie. What Lottie excels at is assassination, which is to transform herself into the appearance of the target's closest person, and then thrust the blade into the target's neck when the target is not paying attention.

The living environment in the Royal City of Skare was really bad, with dusty tables and chairs and cramped living conditions. What Lottie could not stand the most was the cold environment in Skare.

If she couldn't find the target, Lottie might have lay dormant for a while, but she had just found the key target.

"Skarre has received assistance from an unknown force. We must find out who is behind it." These elderly spies seemed much more experienced.

"clear."

This time, Lottie was going to infiltrate the Deep Green Clan, and was sent by his immediate superior to learn how to suppress his desire to kill and get the information he wanted without killing anyone.

Although Lottie believed that there was no conflict between killing the other party and taking away the intelligence, she still chose to obey her commander and followed the two elderly spies to collect intelligence behind the enemy.

"Someone is coming." Lottie looked at the two old spies, as if asking what to do.

"Pretend to tidy up your room!"

One of the elderly elves stood up and began to wipe the dusty table. Lottie followed their example and began to move the luggage, but while she was moving the luggage, she had quietly grasped a deadly little dagger in her palm.

"Excuse me, are you the Leilaen family?"

A researcher who was also wearing a military coat walked up to the second floor. Lottie did not answer, and the half-elf who played the role of her father immediately came out behind her.

"What can I do for you?"

The half-elf looked at the researcher who walked into the room, also an elderly man with gray hair.

"I'm Bai Huan, the researcher responsible for the life survey in this area. You can just call me Mr. Bai." While introducing himself, Professor Bai Huan's eyes were fixed on the half-elves' pointed ears.

When Lu Cheng brought this group of half-elves to Skarre, all the research departments in the entire camp were about to be blown up. No matter whether they were doing biological research, sociological research, or even geographical research scholars, they all wanted to find out the true appearance of these elves.

The appearance of this new humanoid species was no less than the discovery of aliens, and the researchers in the camp were just short of demanding that these half-elves be dissected.

Because Professor Bai Huan was responsible for the research and guidance of the Skare society, he was fortunate to become the second group of researchers to come into contact with these half-elves.

"What can I do for you?" The half-elf in the form of a shapeshifter seemed very cautious. This old man had obviously come to see them specifically, and they felt that they should not be exposed so quickly.

This old man may not have much fighting ability, but the two soldiers holding strange weapons behind him are quite intimidating.

"Don't be nervous. I'm just here to teach you how to live in this city. It's cold, isn't it? Come here... I'll teach you how to use the newly built earthen kang."

Professor Bai Huan is truly gentle, easy-going and amiable, although the way he looks at those half-elves is almost the same as looking at little white mice.

Of course the half-elves would not realize this.
