When Beauty Meets Beasts

558 Fiancée

Logically speaking, ordinary Goffins would not know about the tribe’s plan to attack Elven God Mountain as it was a secret.

But Ryder wasn’t an ordinary Goffin.

He was a commander and had a high status in the Guffen tribe.

It was also because of this that he was qualified to know some secrets.

!!

Elman was in luck. He captured a commander as soon as he attacked. Coupled with Huanhuan’s interrogation, they managed to get a lot of information from Ryder.

When Ryder had told them everything he knew, Huanhuan got a dagger from Elman and stabbed Ryder. She wanted to completely end this unlucky guy’s life and let him die.

The gnomes dragged Ryder’s body to the door of the house, where the dwarfs were collecting the corpses of the Goffins.

They collectively transported the corpses of the Goffins to the entrance of the valley and hung them on trees for the scavengers to bite.

This was both revenge and provocation.

The black crows circled above Swan Valley for several days.

Huanhuan asked Lance about the Goffins and the giants joining forces to attack Elven God Mountain.

“It doesn’t matter. They can fight however they want. It’s none of my business even if they all die.” Lance was very calm and cold.

Elven God Mountain was not a good place for Lance. He did not care if Elven God Mountain would be attacked.

But Murphy was different.

Elven God Mountain was Murphy’s hometown. He couldn’t just watch his hometown be ruined.

Murphy suddenly snatched away the dominance of the body and said calmly, “I’m going back to Elven God Mountain to tell Mom that the Goffins and giants have joined forces. I want her to strengthen her defense as soon as possible.”

As soon as he finished speaking, his face turned into a very disdainful expression again. “I’m not going back! Don’t they think highly of themselves and think they’re especially powerful? Then let them fight the Goffins and giants. If they have the ability, they can destroy the Goffins and giants in one go!”

His face became very serious again in the blink of an eye. “There are too many Goffins. The giants are extremely destructive as well. The elves are no match for them.”

He then sneered gloatingly again. “Come on. If you say that to those arrogant elves, they’ll definitely think you’re underestimating them. Instead of listening to your advice, they’ll chase you out.”

Murphy was very determined. “Even so, I can’t let Elven God Mountain be attacked!”

Lance snorted. “If you want to go, go ahead. I won’t go back!”

Murphy said, “Then give me the body.”

Lance said, “No.”

The two sides fought for the dominance of the body. b

Huanhuan looked confused. She saw that the elf was frozen in place. The expression on his face was changing very quickly. He was quite schizophrenic.

In the end, Murphy won by a slight margin and successfully obtained the dominance of the body.

Lance was temporarily suppressed.

Murphy said again, “I’m going back to Elven God Mountain.”

Huanhuan quickly said, “I want to go too!”

She still had to go to the elves to buy paper!

Murphy hesitated. “Logically speaking, outsiders aren’t allowed to enter Elven God Mountain unless…”

“Unless what?”

“You become my fiancée.”

Pfft! Huanhuan spat out a mouthful of tea and coughed until she was out of breath.

Murphy patted her back gently to calm her down. At the same time, he explained unhurriedly, “You don’t have to be too agitated. The fiancée I’m talking about is just a fiancée in name. I’m not really asking you to be my mate.”

Huanhuan wiped the water from her mouth and caught her breath. “You mean, you want me to pretend to be your fiancée and sneak into Elven God Mountain?”

“Mhm.”

“That’s a good idea, but what if we’re discovered?”

Murphy said casually, “It doesn’t matter if you’re discovered. When the time comes, I’ll send you out of Elven God Mountain. I’ll just be reprimanded again.”

Huanhuan quickly made a decision. “Then let’s do it. We’ll pretend to be engaged!”

…

Murphy was ready to leave the next day.

He asked Huanhuan to spend the day packing everything she needed to bring.

Huanhuan’s things were in the space. She didn’t have to pack them and could leave at any time.

She found Elman and discussed the matters of the gold mine with him.

“I’m going away for a while. In the meantime, I’ll leave the gold mine in your hands.”

Elman agreed. “Leave everything to me. I promise to help you manage the gold mine in an orderly manner!”

Huanhuan smiled. “We’ve been working together happily recently. I trust your abilities and character. As a thank-you, I plan to give you 20% of the gold mine’s income.”

As soon as she said this, Elman’s eyes widened. He was so excited that he couldn’t speak properly. “A-Are you serious?”

“Of course, it’s true.”

Elman jumped up. “Thank you so much! You’re the kindest and most powerful female shaman I’ve ever seen!”

Although he had only seen one female shaman in his life.

Even so, that didn’t stop him from being grateful to her and admiring her.

Huanhuan’s suggestion was added to the contract, which showed that she would keep her word and not lie.

20% of the gold mine’s income was nothing to the elves and giants, but to the poor gnomes, it was a huge sum of money. As long as they had this income, the living standards of the entire gnome race would increase greatly in the future!

How could Elman not be excited?!

Huanhuan patted his shoulder. “As long as you follow me and work hard, your lives will get better and better.”

Elman patted his chest and swore, “I’m willing to lead the gnomes and be loyal to you forever!”

After dealing with the gold mine matters, Huanhuan found Mark and talked to him about the cannons and ship.

“After I leave, the artillery and shipbuilding will continue. I’ll check on the progress when I return.”

Mark said there was no problem.

After learning that Huanhuan and Murphy were going to leave Swan Valley, Archie suddenly came to their door.

Ever since Arso died, as his only son, Archie successfully entered the position of the tribe’s leader.

Archie handed a small metal box to Huanhuan and said solemnly, “This is Swan Light. It represents us dwarves. I hope you can help pass it to the Elven Queen. It’s a token of friendship between the dwarfs and the elves.”

Huanhuan took the box and opened it. There was a milky-white gem inside. The surface was colorful and quite beautiful.

She put the box away. “I’ll pass it to the Elven Queen.”

Archie bowed slightly. “Thank you.”

Now that the Goffins and the giants had joined forces, and the dwarfs had suffered heavy losses, it was best to find a powerful ally.

And the elves were one of the dwarfs’ chosen allies.

Hopefully, the Elven Queen would accept their goodwill.
