Chapter 222 Slander
"Those elves betrayed us. They want to wipe out all humans. We must leave the forest immediately. Lord Karnke has found a new place for us to stay."

The soldiers shouted loudly and walked towards the resistance camp.

After seeing Lysabel and her group, they were stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted.

"Lysabel, the traitor who defected to the elves!"

After all, they had been comrades with the resistance fighters in the camp for quite some time. Most of those who joined the resistance fighters after breaking out were more willing to trust these comrades who had fought side by side with them.

Even they actually knew that these people were not of good character.

Even those resistance fighters who stood among the veteran resistance fighters slightly tilted their weapons towards Lisabel and her group.

"In that case, where will you stay in the future?"

Lisabel did not directly refute those close to Karnke, but raised a question.

"It's in Donglin Town. Lord Kanke negotiated with the nobles and they agreed to give up Qinghe Town as our new base."

These close associates of Kank did not see any problem with this.

“Together with the surrounding villages and settlements, they will all become our territory.”

Those resistance fighters who were carrying supplies and preparing to leave were obviously tempted. They joined the resistance only because they wanted to be able to have a much better quality of life as resistance fighters under the oppression of the nobles and their lackeys, and the price was not to hang their lives on their belts.

Anyway, under the oppression of the nobles and their lackeys, they basically have no way to survive, so it is not a loss to exchange their lives for a better life.

But if they have the opportunity to be the exploiters, they will not turn it down.

"Don't stop me. I'm going to live a good life."

Those people pointed their weapons at other resistance fighters in the camp. Many of them were wavering and hesitant. Only those who had joined the camp before the breakout resolutely blocked their way out.

However, due to Kank's deliberate consumption, the number of these people is already small. If those wavering resistance fighters are persuaded, they will be unable to stop them.

"So it's clear who the traitor is."

The non-commissioned officers beside Lisabel suddenly jumped up and rushed to the front of Kank's confidants in an instant. When they reacted, they found that they had been pinned to the ground with swords at their necks.

"To join those nobles is undoubtedly a betrayal of all those who resisted."

"Betrayal."

Kank's henchman, who was pinned to the ground, struggled.

From the beginning, Kahnke considered that some of the "old stubborn" resistance fighters would not agree with his actions and would try to stop his confidants from taking people from the camp. Although he did not expect that these confidants would encounter Lisabel.

He had already formulated the script before these trusted aides set out.

"Regardless of whether we resist or not, we are all human beings first. You have all seen what has happened outside recently. When facing those alien races, we humans must first put aside the so-called relationships between countries and factions and unite as one to resist them."

The confidant was about to break free from the grip of the non-commissioned officer under Lisabel, and his words also persuaded some new resistance fighters whose positions were wavering. "Lisabel and others who colluded with aliens are the real traitors, traitors to humanity."

The people in the camp turned their eyes to Lisabel. What Kank's confidants said was not entirely unreasonable. These resistance fighters also heard about what had happened in the surrounding area recently.

Several villages were completely destroyed, and the refugee camps outside the town were also slaughtered by monsters. The purpose of these monsters was no longer to rob supplies and food, but to slaughter humans. This was one of the reasons why they had difficulty believing in the elves before.

"Well said."

Lysabel clapped her hands.

Kank is indeed good at playing politics and manipulating people's hearts. No wonder he was able to eliminate the commanders of other resistance forces one by one and eventually seize power alone.

"But I have a small question. You were attacked by the elves only two days ago, and the new sun rose only a week ago..."

The time mentioned by Lisabel made many resistance fighters realize that something was wrong.

"Even on the second day after the new sun rose, Kahnke realized the future development of events. Not to mention how much time he needed to make a decision to negotiate with those nobles, I assume that he made the decision immediately and began to implement it."

More and more resistance fighters responded.

“In less than a week, he was able to approach the decision-makers in the noble alliance as a resistance fighter and reach an agreement. I can only regard this as a miracle in the history of human diplomacy.”

Kahnke did not teach his confidants how to refute in this situation.

They didn't expect that someone would be able to find the loopholes in their rhetoric. Now, Kahnke's confidants can only find ways to defend themselves. But just a few months ago, they were just some ignorant country hooligans. It was too difficult for them to fill the loopholes in their rhetoric on their own.

So they were stuck there.

"Yes, I remember that two months ago, Kank's personal guards often secretly left the forest. I don't know what they did."

A resistance fighter recalled the abnormalities of Kank and those around him.

"Not only that, Feluen and I once saw Karins, Kank's personal bodyguard, secretly meet with a noble officer. By the way, Feluen was sent to the front line in the encirclement and suppression of the noble troops, and then disappeared. I remember he had said before that he would report what he saw to Kank."

Everything is connected, and it is obvious who the real betrayer is.

"So, when did Kank betray us and contact those nobles?"

The swords of the non-commissioned officers under Lisabel cut the skin on the necks of Kank's henchmen. The cold touch and pain, coupled with the fact that there was no room for rebuttal, made the henchmen confess.

"Four months ago, Lord Kahnka began trying to contact those nobles."

This time point was even beyond Lisabel's expectations. She really overestimated Kahnke's bottom line. She thought that even for the sake of his control over the resistance forces and future power, Kahnke would cause some losses to the nobles, raise his own value, and then contact the nobles.

But it was harmless. Lysabel waved her hand. Her sergeant swung his sword and was about to cut off the heads of those loyalists of Karnke.
