I’m very sorry for only updating one chapter yesterday. I’ll try my best to make up for it today. Please rest assured.

The two of them quickly entered The Forgotten Valley. Zhao Hai didn’t put away the Xenomorphs, and there was no need to. If he was a black magician, it wouldn’t be too much to take them with him, especially in the wild. No one would care. However, when entering the city, black magicians would usually put away their summoned beasts or undead.
The two sides of the valley were not very steep, but two gentle slopes with some shrubs and weeds growing on them. However, it could be seen that the trees in the valley were much stronger than those in the castle. At least, they looked lively, unlike the trees in the castle, which looked like they were seriously ill.
There was no one in The Forgotten Valley, and only the occasional chirping of insects could be heard. It was obviously very harmonious and natural.
Looking at the hills on both sides, Gelin turned to Zhao Hai and said, ” &Quot; young master, once we’re up the mountain, find a place and go into your space. I’ll go to the Montenegro fortress to buy some clothes. When I come back, we’ll go to the Black Mountain fortress together. &Quot;
Zhao Hai nodded and directed the alien to climb up the mountain. The alien was only a skeleton now, but its claws were still very sharp, so it didn’t take much effort to climb up the mountain.
Although they were still on Iron Mountain, the trees here were much stronger than those in the castle. There were thick trees everywhere, and Zhao Hai could not name them.
He couldn’t tell the difference between the trees here and the trees on earth. When he was on earth, he knew very little about these trees. Other than common species such as Poplar, Willow, Elm, and pine, he didn’t know much about other trees.
Green sat beside Zhao Hai and looked at the trees. &Quot; “Young master, the forest here is still very dangerous. Not only are there magical beasts coming and going from time to time, but there are also some plants that are very poisonous. So you must be careful.”
Zhao Hai nodded. Although he had never been to such a primitive forest before, it was very famous on the internet. Most novel writers would set this place as a very dangerous scene. Even those realistic novels would describe the forest as a dangerous place. Moreover, there were magical beasts in this world, so he was more careful.
The vegetation on this mountain was very intact, and there were all kinds of forests everywhere. Once they entered the forest, the light suddenly dimmed, making people feel cold.
The two of them walked into the forest for a while before they found a hidden spot. The two of them ran down from the Xenomorph and Zhao Hai kept it in his Origin space. After that, Zhao Hai and green also entered the origin space.
In the subspace, the corn on the ground was still very strong, the oil-rice was still healthy, and the slaves were still learning to write. Merlin had nothing to do now. Other than teaching the slaves to write, she could only prepare three meals a day.
However, it wasn’t completely fine. This time, Zhao Hai put the stones that Ann and the others had mined into his interspace. He asked Ann and the others to use them to make some grinding stones when they were free.
This time, Zhao Hai had kept a lot of grass in his boundless space. He wanted to give the slaves something to do. It was impossible for people to just study without any activities. That was why ye hai wanted them to do these things.
The effect was surprisingly good. These tasks were not a problem for the slaves at all. They could be used to balance work and rest.
When Merlin and the others saw the two of them enter at the same time, they were stunned. These few days, Grimm and Zhao Hai would not enter the subspace unless there was something important. If they wanted to meet the two of them, they would have to leave the subspace.
“Young master, Grimm, why are you here?” Merlin quickly greeted them. Did something happen?”
&Quot; it’s nothing, ” Grimm said with a smile. &Quot; we’ve already reached The Forgotten Valley. We’re in the woods on the iron Mountain. I’ll let the young master stay in the space for a while. I’ll go to the Montenegro fortress to get two sets of clothes before going out. &Quot;
Of course, Merlin understood what Grimm meant. She nodded and said, ” &Quot; okay, then go quickly. We’ll wait for you here. By the way, remember this place. Don’t be unable to find your home when the time comes. &Quot;
Merlin was in a good mood these few days. No matter what, the Buda family was going to have an income. This was the first time they had an income since the Buda family’s disaster. Although they had not gotten the money yet, this represented hope.
Zhao Hai turned to green and said, ” Grandpa Green, you should be careful too. We can’t reveal our identities right now. Otherwise, I’m afraid that we will all be in trouble. It’s fine if we can’t sell the radishes. We can wait for a while more. We can sell them after the wind has passed. Your safety is the most important. &Quot;
A warm smile appeared on Green’s face as he patted Zhao Hai’s shoulder, ” “Don’t worry, young master. I can’t bear to die before I see the Buda family’s revival.” He laughed out loud.
In the past, Grimm would never have done such a thing to Zhao Hai. This was because he was not that close to Adam, and Adam hated Grimm very much. How could the two of them have such an intimate gesture?
However, Adam’s body contained Zhao Hai’s soul. Zhao Hai was an otaku and an orphan, but he was born in China. China was very particular about filial piety. Although green and Merlin were his servants in name, they had taken good care of him ever since he woke up. This made Zhao Hai feel an unnatural respect for the two of them as elders.
Zhao Hai’s change was quickly noticed by Merlin and green. Both of them had children, so they were very sensitive to such emotional changes. It was precisely because of this change that green had made such a move on Zhao Hai. Otherwise, with Green’s old-fashioned personality, he would not have done so.
Zhao Hai didn’t feel any disgust at the Pat on his shoulder. He only felt the love and care of an elder toward a junior. However, he didn’t say anything. He was a person who was very reserved when it came to feelings. He wouldn’t reveal too much of his feelings, so he only nodded to Ge Lin and said,”Alright then, Grandpa Green, I’ll send you out now. Green ordered some research and studies, and with a thought from Zhao Hai, green came out from the space.
Grimm took note of the surrounding environment and left some marks in a few corners that no one paid attention to. Then he flew toward Montenegro fortress.
Grimm was an experienced man. He was very clear about the style of those adventurers, so he did not have any scruples. Speaking of which, the ones paying attention to the Buda family now were all the big nobles, and those big nobles would not put all their energy on them. After all, the Buda family was no longer a threat to those big families, and those people did not want to provoke the two powerful figures, Grimm and Merlin.
As for those ordinary adventurers, they would not pay attention to the Buda family. No one had issued a mission to deal with the Buda family, and the Buda family did not have the ability to hire them. Those adventurers did not have time to care about a fallen noble.
The real threat to the Buda family right now was none other than the Versailles family. In the past, the Versailles family and the Buda family had a very good relationship. The two families were even prepared to marry each other. However, ever since the Buda family fell, the Versailles family no longer mentioned the marriage. On the contrary, they could not bear to see the Buda family fall.
There was almost no love in a Noble’s marriage, only benefits. In the past, the Versailles family and the Buda family had a marriage alliance because they saw the benefits that the Buda family could bring them.
But now that the Buda family had fallen, the Versailles family no longer had any value to them. Under such circumstances, how could they still honor the marriage agreement?
The Versailles family did not want to honor the marriage agreement, but they had the same problem as the other nobles, which was that they wanted to save face.
The Buda family was in a dire situation, and it was precisely because of this that they were the weak ones. If the Versailles family were to call off the engagement with the Buda family, their reputation would be tarnished in the aristocratic circles. The Versailles family would not do such an idiotic thing.
Therefore, they only had two ways to break off the engagement. One was for the Buda family to take the initiative to break off the engagement. Although everyone knew that even if the Buda family took the initiative to do so, it would be because they were forced by the Versailles family. However, at least this way, they could still put on a good face.
The other method was even simpler, which was to annihilate the Buda family. With Adam Buda dead, the Versailles family would naturally no longer have to fulfill the marriage agreement.
In fact, Grimm had thought of breaking off the engagement with the Versailles family. However, Zhao Hai had not yet woken up at the time, so he could not make the decision on his own. On the other hand, Grimm was also angry with the Versailles family. When the Buda family needed help the most, the Versailles family chose to stand by and watch. Otherwise, the Buda family would not have fallen to such a state. After all, the Versailles family was a powerful family in the Empire, and they were a force that could not be underestimated.
It was precisely because he still harbored this grudge against the Versailles family that Clint did not tell Zhao Hai that he was going to cancel the engagement. He wanted to just leave it as it was.’The Versailles family did not help us, causing us to fall into this state. I will not let you off easily either.’
Grimm was very familiar with the problem of the nobles ‘pride, so he was sure that the Versailles family would not take the initiative to cancel the engagement. They would only exert pressure on the Buda family and make them take the initiative to do so.
However, Grimm did not want to remove it. He knew that the Versailles family would not let them off, but they had too many things to do now, and there were too many threats. One more or one less would not make a difference, so he decided to delay it for now.
Although he said that, Grimm was still very careful because the only entrance to the blackdirt wastelands was the Versailles family. Now that they were a thorn in the side of the Versailles family, they would definitely pay attention to their movements.
