Is it so easy for religion in another world to win?

Chapter 61 The Origin of the Battle to Defend Pants (Additional Update, Please Read!)

It rained yesterday, and it cleared up today. Rand was supervising the sugar production. The beet den had planted a lot of beets, but the sugar production process was quite primitive, which was simply boiling, filtering, and refining.

To make white sugar, it is necessary to control the crystallization, desalination, and bleaching. If there are alchemists in the future, let them study these things.

Now only the most basic sugar production process is needed to ensure the supply of mixed juice.

As adventurers gradually obtain wealth from the ruins, they also become generous, and mixed juice is finally selling well.

There are ten floors in the ruins here, and each floor has a large space. At present, these adventurers are still operating on the first floor, and knowing that the ruins have more than one floor has made many adventurers excited.

This means that the wealth here will not be fully excavated in a short time, and Rand does not collect any taxes on the output of the ruins. It only requires that the intelligence and records obtained must be sold to the den.

In fact, there is no need to collect taxes. The real source of wealth is to take advantage of adventurers' food, clothing, housing and transportation. Rand, who was a modern man in his previous life, knows this very well.

The danger of the ruins is not very serious. It is simply a paradise in the dreams of adventurers.

You know, many adventurers either help nobles deliver things and find pets, or fight monsters in the wild such as goblins and demonized wild boars.

This kind of work is either extremely low-paid or extremely dangerous.

Even if it is an adventure treasure hunt, there is often no wealth to speak of.

Rand looked at the workshop for a while, and after confirming that there was no problem, he walked towards the lord's hall.

Because the den is illegal, trade with nearby noble territories cannot be carried out in large quantities. Only a small group of people can be arranged to disguise as nearby villagers to trade, and they will be exploited or even robbed.

However, if Taner's results are good, the den is estimated to have a legal identity to a certain extent recently, and there is no need to be formally granted a noble title. As long as the second prince's faction regards the den as their own, many things will be much more convenient.

Due to the recent war, Rand has not received any letter from Taner, and he is still very worried.

The current Lord's Hall is a Lord's Longhouse expanded from the original sacrificial room. Above the entrance of the longhouse is a giant snake skull. Entering the longhouse, it has been decorated.

There are chandeliers on both sides of the longhouse, and a dark red carpet in the middle. At the end of the carpet is a stone seat, which has the momentum of a throne.

However, Rand is still a little uncomfortable sitting there, and there is no diplomatic need at present, so he never sits there.

One side of the Lord's Longhouse is connected to Rand's living area, and the other side is the office area. After continuous training, these office apprentices no longer hold back Ellie and Olena.

Therefore, the two finally got rid of the situation of working all year round, and occasionally they can take a half-day or a day off, but at this time they are both still working.

Ellie handled the documents skillfully, and then piled them aside, waiting for Olena to review. If there is no problem, it will be passed directly, and if there is a problem, Rand will make the decision.

Every once in a while, they would compile a briefing to let Rand know the development of the den during this period.

Ellie was wearing a yellow dress, probably bought from a tailor shop in the town managed by Taran. Although it was not as exquisite as her own clothes, it didn't look tacky.

At first glance, Rand was just here to hang out, not to help. Ellie didn't give Rand a seat. She looked up at the busy apprentice clerk in the den in the distance and whispered, "That Elsa seemed to say she wanted to take revenge on you?"

Rand nodded: "There's nothing to be afraid of. I have Lysa and Olenna watching in turn. She can't do anything to me."

"Looks like a sensible person." Some time ago, when she forced Elsa to be an adventurer introducer, she also had some contact with Elsa, and she had a good evaluation of this strange girl.

After thinking for a while, Ellie said strangely: "But she doesn't seem to be normal."

Rand continued to nod: "That is the curse of God. The gift of God is too strong to have certain negative effects."

Ellie looked at Rand in confusion, wondering how Rand knew this information.

Rand did not explain either. Now he has discovered that as long as he does not explain, he does not need to explain the source of some information. Everyone in the den, including Ellie and Olena, trusts him very much.

"Will she come to steal your things?" Ellie continued to ask. Olena next to her also stopped processing documents and looked over here with soft eyes.

Rand nodded. Maybe, but there is nothing valuable in the den. The real valuables are the people and buildings in the den, which cannot be stolen.

"Did you make her angry?" Ellie said.

Rand always felt that Ellie had something to say.

Ellie did have something to say, and after a while, she said, "Do you think she could steal your pants?"

Rand's heart skipped a beat, and hesitantly said, "It shouldn't be the case. The last time she stole your pants was purely an accident. I don't think she looks like a pervert, right?"

At least she is definitely better than Lisa.

"I think." Ellie cleared her throat and teased mischievously, "People can do anything when they are anxious."

Rand wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, thinking that this little thing would not force Elsa, who looked normal, to become a pervert who specializes in stealing people's pants.

...

Elsa was very annoyed at this time. Since she found the golden tree seeds from the ruins, adventurers would come to her from time to time to ask for information about the ruins. No matter where she went, there were adventurers coming to her side to ask if there was any information about the ruins. She was almost annoyed to death.

Fortunately, the valuable treasure had left her, and she was also good at it, so no adventurers with bad intentions came to trouble her.

But it was still very troublesome!

Elsa stayed in the hotel room with gritted teeth, planning a revenge plan against Rand in her heart.

What was very troublesome was that although this Rand was cunning, insidious, mean, shameless, had no bottom line, was greedy for money, and had a dark heart, he was still a good person.

At least under his rule, this Crescent Territory did not have the despair of other territories around him that had been involved in the war, and he was also good to adventurers. Although there were many items charged, most of them were reasonable, and there was no situation of raising prices for card demand.

If she hadn't been tricked, she would have had a very good impression of Rand. This trick could only be said to be Rand's discovery of her kleptomania. In the final analysis, it was actually her own problem.

Therefore, she couldn't use many methods against Rand. If she wanted to retaliate against this bastard, she could only resort to some disgusting pranks on him, and even these pranks couldn't really disturb his work.

Otherwise, if Crescent Moon Territory and the holiday villa were shut down, she would feel bad.

Elsa was now in a dilemma, but it was impossible not to retaliate!

Chapter 62: The Battle to Defend the Underpants, Cooperation with the Adventurer Association

After Elsa pondered in the hotel, she glanced at her underpants.

This reminded her of the first time she met Rand, she had a sneaky idea in her heart, tried to steal Rand's personal belongings, and ended up stealing warm underpants.

Sure enough, it was still a bit disgusting to think about it now.

Thinking of this, she was suddenly startled. She seemed to have found a way to retaliate against Rand, but this method might be a bit harmful to others and not beneficial to herself.

However, as long as she could retaliate, it would be fine. It's cold, wear less pants, Rand!

Elsa flashed out of the hotel. As a senior thief, in this holiday villa full of adventurers, her strength was not the strongest, but it was one of the best.

If she really used all her strength, her concealment skills and speed made it easy for her to avoid the sight of adventurers, but it was very tiring.

There was a branch on the main road of the holiday villa that led directly to the upper den. The gate of the den was guarded by two silver-armored warriors, but such guards were useless to Elsa.

But she knew very well that the real defense of the den was a top-level swordsman and a suspected top-level ranger.

Although Rand felt a little dangerous at this time, according to Elsa's performance in the CG, he felt that she would not do this, so he sat alone in the meeting hall.

The main thing is that there is only a thousand days to steal, but there is no thousand days to guard against thieves. Ellie, Olenna and Lisa all have things to do. It is a waste of productivity to follow him all the time, especially when Elsa is almost impossible to endanger his life.

And what the hideout lacks most now is productivity!

Rand is sitting on the stone chair that looks like a throne in the lord's hall, waiting for the people from the Adventurer's Association to come.

The Adventurer's Association is generally invited by the local lords to manage the adventurers of the territory.

Adventurers are similar to mercenaries, but compared to mercenaries, they are more inclined to participate in tasks such as exploration, treasure hunting, and hunting monsters.

But sometimes, they will also participate in wars, but they are more like special forces, and are generally assigned some special operations tasks.

In some cases, people from the Adventurer's Association will take the initiative to find them, such as the ruins of the Crescent Territory.

This will become a training base for new adventurers and a source of income for the Adventurer's Association.

Just as Rand was getting bored and counting the chandeliers in the Lord's Hall, the design of the hall was completed by Ellie. It must be said that Ellie's aesthetics are really good.

The window openings and the design of the stairs are very beautiful.

Elsa has already touched the Lord's Hall. Looking at Rand who was sitting there a little bored, her heart moved.

To be honest, it's quite handsome. The sun's light shines through the windows of the hall and shines obliquely on the young man with black hair and black eyes, as if he is the place where the light converges.

He is wearing a formal dress, without the arrogance of other nobles who are always high above. One arm's elbow is supporting the armrest of the chair, and his hand is clenched into a fist against his face, looking at the chandelier in the hall carelessly.

His appearance is not particularly handsome, but under the background of the sun and temperament, it can still easily attract people's attention.

But it's useless!

Stealing!

Sneak behind Rand, the back of the stone chair, and activate the universal hand.

The omnipotent hand is a blessing from God. Because this blessing is so strong, it even brings the negative effect of kleptomania.

This ability can steal an item randomly. Now, after unremitting efforts, she can control the scope of theft a little.

However, it is not necessary for Rand. If there is no control at all and the omnipotent hand is used freely, then the stolen things may not be the most valuable, but they must be the things that the other party values ​​more.

And it is obvious that this bad guy named Rand values ​​his underpants very much.

After snickering, Elsa found a pair of warm underpants in her hand as expected.

Now it's just showing off. There's no point in running away after stealing this kind of thing. Rand must have spare pants.

At this time, he must show off in front of Rand and humiliate her severely to avenge the original plan.

Rand suddenly felt a chill in his crotch. He realized that Ellie's guess was right. This Elsa really put down her dignity and shame and came to steal his pants.

But he decided to let this Elsa go at this time. The pants were given to her. He just asked her not to jump in the face and leave quickly.

Because the representative of the Adventurer's Association came, if this Elsa suddenly jumped out to show off the pants she stole, then the reputation of Rand and Elsa might be ruined at the same time.

This is for your own good, Elsa. Compared with me, the one who was stolen, you, the one who stole the pants, obviously have a worse reputation faster!

This is the representative of the Adventurer's Association. The Adventurer's Association is the most well-informed organization in the human kingdom except for those specialized intelligence agencies!

It is also the organization that loves gossip the most.

If Elsa really jumps out, then within a few months, this matter will spread all over the world.

Unfortunately, it didn't go as planned.

The representative of the Adventurer's Association, wearing a formal emerald green formal dress, walked across the carpet and stood at a position not too far away, looking up and preparing to speak.

Then a girl with fair skin and black clothes jumped out from behind the stone lord's chair, holding a piece of cloth that looked like pants, and laughed at Rand: "Hahaha! I didn't expect that your pants were stolen by me again."

After saying that, she looked at Rand with doubts, whose face did not fluctuate at all. This man didn't look so serious before?

Why did he not change his face when his pants were stolen? Wasn't he furious last time?

At this time, she realized that something was wrong. Due to the joy and expectation of the upcoming revenge, she relaxed her perception of the outside world.

At this time, she found that in this rather majestic stone lord's hall, besides her and Rand, there was a third person.

She turned her head stiffly, and saw a person in emerald green clothes.

It was over. She knew very well that she might never have a reputation in her life. How could there be such an evil organization as the Adventurer's Association in the world?

Rand had no expression on his face, as if Elsa was air. He said to the representative of the Adventurer's Association with a strange look on his face, "No problem, please go ahead."

The representative of the Adventurer's Association looked back and forth between Rand and Elsa, who was like being petrified by Medusa's light, and said in the same serious manner, "I am here to seek cooperation on behalf of the Adventurer's Association. We hope to establish a branch in the Adventurer's Resort and conduct adventurer training here."

Rand nodded slightly. This was something he had expected long ago. Maybe in the future, there will be a beautiful girl in green clothes in the resort who shouts towards the stars and the abyss all day long.

After deciding on the main direction of the cooperation, Rand signaled the representative to go to Ellie and Olena to discuss the details.

After that, Rand could drive these adventurers to work for him to a certain extent, and he could also give discounts.

After the representatives of the Adventurer's Association left, Rand looked at Elsa, who was as motionless as if petrified.

Chapter 63 Elsa's silence, Taner's reply, and analysis of the situation

Elsa looked at Rand, and Rand looked at Elsa, and the two stared at each other.

After a long silence, Elsa couldn't hold her breath first and handed the pants in her hand to Rand: "Hey, here, the pants are back to you."

Rand took the pants with disdain, left the stone chair arrogantly, returned to the sacrificial room to change, and walked out again: "You regret it now."

Elsa stammered: "Hey, can you ask the representative of the Adventurer's Association not to spread gossip?"

Rand raised his eyebrows and tried to hold back his laughter.

Elsa lost all the arrogance she had when she stole the pants. She became hesitant. As it concerned her reputation, she had to compromise. Her bright eyes looked at Rand with grievance.

"Well, it would be bad for you if this matter got out, right?"

Rand calmed down and said in a calm tone, "I didn't admit that those were my pants. How dare you assume that they were my pants!"
