The Dark Elf troops with heavy casualties withdrew from the battlefield.
The Skeleton Corps took over the city defense.
Hart stayed on the city wall and directed the repair of the damaged walls and towers. The Dark Knight's real aura of death made many dark elves tremble with fear.
At the same time, reconnaissance, logistics, material production and other work have been resumed in an orderly manner to prevent the devil from attacking again in a short period of time.
Li Ran and Eureka, followed by the Spear Guards, walked onto the streets of Black Cliff City.
The last time Li Ran came here, Eureka was still the lord of Starwind City, and Yibes was still the high-ranking mistress.
Li Ran was just a black dragon pendant who accidentally entered the death zone, a down-and-out gold miner.
Now, the conqueror Li Ran has arrived in his loyal Black Cliff City.
In the black stone buildings beside the road, dark elf residents poked their heads out from time to time and peered at Li Ran. Some of them were grateful, some were still indifferent, and even more, their eyes were filled with resentment and hostility. .
Dark elves are a race that cannot be insulted.
However, Yibes has become his follower, and these underground residents have no courage to challenge his authority.
Under the leadership of Yibeisi, Li Ran came to the front of the cave where the heart of the castle was.
Yibes turned around, glanced at Li Ran with a complicated expression, and then walked in first.
Along the sunken steps, the two walked dozens of meters, and a rune stone door appeared in front of them.
Yibesi used her identity as the city lord to unlock the seal, and the stone door slowly opened.
In the room, the bright and dark heart of the Black Cliff Castle was beating constantly, maintaining the connection between the city and the Dark Dragon God Marasa.
Yibesi bowed her head and stepped back, giving up her position, and Li Ran stepped forward.
He stretched out his hand and touched the heart of the castle.
The surging divine power lingered around Li Ran's fingers and connected to Li Ran's consciousness.
System prompts: The Lord of Black Cliff City, Yibesi, requests to transfer the city’s governance to you. Do you agree?
agree!
Ding!
System prompt: Congratulations on becoming the city lord of Black Cliff City!
System prompt: You have obtained two cities, please give your power a name!
Li Ran comprehensively considered the current development situation of the national server and decided to choose a name that integrated into the world view.
[Buildings: Whispering Hall, City Hall, Castle, Tavern, Market, Blacksmith Shop, Black Hand School, Minotaur Maze, Dark Paddock, Warehouse]
[Materials: 120 wood, 237 ore, 5 gold]
After gaining control of the city, Yibesi led Li Ran to the Whispering Hall.
This elegant and mysterious building is located at the highest point of the Black Cliff. It is not only the center of power in the city, but also the residence of Ibeth.
The second floor of the Whispering Hall is the reception room and other rooms used for the lord's official business. Li Ran once met Yibes here when he helped Salina come here to seek help.
Li Ran tried to sit on the Shadow Throne, with Yibes standing beside him.
Looking at the empty hall, he felt a little bored, so he climbed to the third floor, followed by Yibes without saying a word.
Without knowing it, Li Ran broke into Yibeisi's bedroom in a vulgar and rude manner.
Because of the demonic war, Ibes was either commanding defense at the city wall, visiting the wounded, or arranging the production and distribution of materials. She had not returned to this warm residence for a long time.
To Li Ran's expectation, this bedroom turned out to be contrary to the sinister and treacherous impression given by the Dark Mistress. It was mainly purple, decorated with a large number of dark and strange underground plants, a large soft bed, and a fluffy bed.
The furniture looks very comfortable.
This is the place closest to the heart of the Dark Mistress. Only then did Li Ran realize that in addition to being a ruthless dark elf lord, she was also a young shadow witch.
Yibes stood in front of an elegant floor-to-ceiling mirror, and the slim figure of the dark elf was reflected in the mirror, allowing Li Ran to have a clear view.
From now on, every building and every living thing in this city will be under Li Ran's control.
As a symbol of power, the Whispering Hall should be taken back by Li Ran and handed over to the managers he appointed for use.
Yibes remained silent, "Will he drive me out? After all, I once pointed my weapon at Starwind City."
For a long time, Li Ran remained silent and stood in front of Yibei's bed, frowning and thinking about something.
"What is he thinking about?" Yibes looked at the man's stubbled profile curiously, "How to deal with the Whispering Hall? Or...how to deal with me?"
I betrayed Starwind City and Eureka.
But, for the people of Heiya, I have no choice.
That's all... Yibes remembered that Li Ran once said that he wanted to take her as a slave.
This may be the best destination for me, she thought, it is better than being killed.
Ibeth closed her eyes as she waited for her fate to be judged.
I don't know how long it took, but a rustling sound came over. Yibes frowned slightly and her breathing speed increased slightly.
Snapped!
Li Ran opened the heavy curtains and opened the door to the terrace with force. The door hit the dining table nearby and made a crisp sound.
Yibeisi opened her eyes a little. Li Ran had already walked to the terrace, and his voice came along with the cold underground breeze at the highest point in the city.
"You can continue to live here in the future." The man said, "You will become my appointed agent, fully responsible for the economic and military management of Black Cliff, and you will continue to govern this city."
Li Ran held on to the railing and looked at the magnificent underground city. Black stone buildings were lined up in rows. In the narrow streets, dark elf residents took to the streets one after another to celebrate their victory with their relatives and neighbors.
And, to celebrate surviving another day in this cruel and broken world.
He looked back at Yibes, "Dark elves are a tough race. Your people will not succumb to the direct rule of foreign races for a long time, so I need an agent. You are the most suitable candidate, but you have to know
, don’t think about betraying it again, I will give it back to you and I will be able to completely destroy it.”
His voice was full of rationality, and Ibeth didn't know whether what he said was recognition of her own value or derogation.
"Yes, Lord Lord." Ibeth said in a cold voice.
She took steps, walked up to the terrace, came to Li Ran, and looked at the city she built and protected with him.
The cool wind blew away the heat in her body, and Li Ran, the descendant from another world, conquered the Black Cliff and... his own lord, igniting a new flame in her heart.
.
The flame was born from the deepest shadow. After blending, baptism of lies and betrayal, it melted through the cobweb-like dense conspiracy, rising slowly in the quagmire filled with death and despair.
