Lord Helanza

"According to the news from the Pena Provincial Magic Union, a big magician in this organization sneaked into Helanza City. Our law enforcement team is currently investigating this matter secretly."

Speaking of this, Lance took out a magical portrait from his arms.

A magician stood vividly in the portrait. Lance pointed to the magician in the portrait and introduced to Surdak:

"His name is Avid Ives, The bounty on the arrest warrant of the Magic Federation has reached as high as 30 Devil Crystal Stone. It is said that several Fiend hunting organizations are looking for his traces. Because he is good at space magic, he has been rounded up several times. He escaped. This time there are clues that he came to Helanza and met with a rebel liaison. Our law enforcement group magician, who was in charge of tracking this matter, did not track down Avid’s whereabouts, but did find it in Helanza. The clue of the rebel contact person."

The dark red magic robe is covered with strange magic patterns, a wand inlaid with seven gems, surrounded by several lightning bolts, looks imposing The manner is extraordinary.

Surdak said to Lance in surprise: "Rebels... Grimm Empire still has rebels? This is really the first time I have heard of..."

Lance Nodded said: "That's it. Even during the period when the empire was the most stable, some rebel forces appeared everywhere. Some forces generally occupied a certain small plane and then cut off the Transmission Gate with Roland continent. It’s not uncommon for planes to organize such organizations, and most of these rebel organizations are related to this magic organization."

Surdak signaled Lance to continue talking...

" A week ago, we received news from an informant that the rebel contact actually appeared in the White Elephant Trading Company, but not long after he left the White Elephant Trading Company, he died in a back alley of a commercial street and was subsequently arrested. A maid who went out to take out the trash found out that by the time our people arrived, the body was already cold and there was no clue."

Lance said to Surdak:

"We suspect that this matter has something to do with Dal’s magician, Dak, on April 17th of this month, you went to the White Elephant Trading Company?"

Surdak recalled that it happened that day It was the last day that he stayed in Helanza City. He calmly nodded and said: "Yes, I went to see Dalle Magician and signed a contract with the White Elephant Trading Company about the sulfur mine."

Lan Si asked: "Did you ever meet a foreigner wearing black clothed and a slightly thin face when you were in the White Elephant Trading Company?" Surdak recalled it seriously and said affirmatively: "No."

Lance showed some loss in his eyes, patted on Surdak's shoulder, and said: "If you have any clues about this, remember to write to me."

Seeing that Lance didn't ask any other questions, Surdak asked in amazement: "Uh...you flew here just to ask me this in person?"

Lance magician seriously nodded: "It's a big deal. , Every piece of information must be carefully investigated."

He pulled the magic wand from the magic pocket, let it float in front of him and sit on it, riding the magic wand and hurriedly left. , Didn't even drink saliva.

The arrival of Lance magician, of course, could not hide the old village chief Bright. When he arrived at Surdak, Lance was already flying in the sky and disappeared without a trace, so he stood alone On the cornerstone, looking at the sky with a faint cloud, he sighed sincerely:

"This young magician is really neglect sleep and forget about food after working. He came to Wall Village and left without drinking any water... …”

The security team’s house is designed according to Surdak’s blueprint and construction method. The foundation is laid with strip limestone, and then the gaps in the rock blocks are filled with volcanic ash cement slurry. It has only been completed so far. Foundation part.

Bright, the old village chief, is very busy every day. Whether it’s the tidal flat drainage canal site or the reservoir site, there are a lot of trivial things waiting for him to come forward and coordinate, so he stays on the side of the security team. After a while, he left.

Surdak walked to the shade of the tree, took out the magic note from his arms, and asked Celia Cooper on the page: "Celia, you know Avid Ives magician Is it?"

Celia Cooper was sleeping in the magic notebook. Surdak turned the pages of the book and awakened her from her sleep, which upset her boss.

She stretched her waist in the book page, glanced at Surdak through the railing, and said:

"He is a space magician who is proficient in space magic and construction. Magic Transmission Formation. It is said that the two-door Transmission Formation in Durva Province was designed by the great magician himself! However, it seems that he was tracked down and wanted by the Imperial Capital Magic Union because of the study of taboo magic in different dimensions. Later, he joined Darkmoon Gate."

"Darkmoon Gate?" Surdak repeated.

Celia Cooper nodded said: "Well, that is a magic organization composed entirely of space magicians. Because the Grimm Empire has a complete Fire Element magic inheritance, the top level of the Empire Magic Union Most of them are Fire Element magicians. They reject magicians of other factions. Therefore, about several decades ago, the Grimm Empire Magician guild broke out a space magician collective defection. The Dark Moon Gate, a magic organization, was to resist magic at that time. A temporary magic organization formed by a trade union."

"This magic organization has several magicians who are proficient in Transmission Formation. After some noble lords intend to occupy a certain plane, if they intend to leave the rule of the Grimm Empire, they usually They will find the Darkmoon Gate and ask them to seal the Transmission Gate and disconnect all ties with the Grimm Empire."

"They also found me before. At that time, Margaret, Cyrus Hickok was about to replicate the Demon Gate, so he did not accept their invitation."

Listening to Celia Cooper’s explanation, Surdak realized that this Dark Moon Gate It was an illegal organization, and it was on the opposite side of the Grimm Empire Magician Guild. No wonder the Magician Guild would find trouble with this group of space magicians whenever they had a chance.

As for the rebels who betrayed the Grimm Empire, they probably have been closely watched by the Empire’s Intelligence Section...

As expected.

Three days later, the Paglos Hill Security Team in Helanza City received a letter from the guard camp. It is said that two imperial rebels fled from Helanza overnight. They hid in Oak Ridge at night. And if they want to leave Pena Province as soon as possible, they are likely to cross the Desolate Land and then go north along the Paglos mountain range. Although this road is difficult to walk, it is the most stable way to leave.

The main reason is that the Pagros mountain range is like a north-south beacon across the territory of the Grimm Empire.

Surdak received this news and quickly unfolded the Desolate Land map, which was jointly surveyed by Andrew and Samira. The area bordering Oak Ridge and Desolate Land was circled with red lines. Surdak analyzed the two traitors. The army is not familiar with Desolate Land, and the forward route will not be too far away from the mountain road.

The past few days Andrew has been riding two horses. Alone is patrolling the Gobi Desert in Desolate Land. He wears a full-cover armor that is too heavy, so he needs to change after riding a section of the road. Ride another horse so that both horses can maintain their strength.

Samira, the half-elf archer, doesn’t need to be so troublesome, and Samira, who has an elf bloodline, is naturally close to nature. She can communicate with her mount in a shallow way, so she can ride a horse. Wander around Desolate Land wantonly.

Andrew and Samira investigate the whereabouts of the two rebels and notify the nineteen villages to take precautions. Since they are absconding rebels, in order to keep their whereabouts secret, they have to do some kill a witness to silence them.

Because the villages took precautions in advance, the two rebels were discovered by villagers in the village when they sneaked into a village to steal food, so that they exposed their whereabouts.

When Surdak received this news, Andrew and Samira were still going out on patrols. Desolate Land is a very large territory. Andrew and Samira have to stay outside for nearly a week every time they go out. , Will return to Wall Village once.

He knew that he couldn't wait for this kind of thing, so he took Ogre Gulitum, who was about to follow the four-wheeled carriage into the depths of Desolate Land, and chased it out in the direction that the villager said.

The four-wheeled carriage that transports volcanic ash has rutted a bare road on the Gobi Desert, and there is basically no sharp gravel on this road.

The villager rode an ancient Borai horse to lead the way. After all, the horse is fast. In the afternoon, the villagers took Surdak and ogre Gulitum to the locals called Uta After returning to the village, the villager inquired the escape route of the two rebels in detail before entering the Gobi Desert of Desolate Land again.

At Desolate Land in early May, the temperature difference between day and night is extremely great.

The temperature is extremely low at night. During the day, there is a scorching sun on the head, and the only layer of water on the surface is evaporated.

Riding a horse on the undulating Gobi Desert, at a glance, there are yellow gravel everywhere. It is located ten kilometers north of the pustule mountain. The two rebels The route chosen is also to try to avoid the pustule mountain where the smoke billows. As long as you go around the pustule mountain, it will not be so desolate there, but it goes deep into the mountain range where the demonic beast is rampant.

Before Surdak left the house, the old village chief repeatedly warned Surdak that he must not enter the depths of the mountain range of Paglos.

The villager walking in the front stopped.

Surdak looked at him suspiciously. He pointed to a hillside in front of his left. Surdak looked over attentively. From a distance, he saw two people wearing earthy linen cloaks on the hillside. The man is leading the horse on foot.

ogre Gulitum followed Surdak all the way, except for a limestone iguana caught on the way, almost nothing was caught.

Seeing these two travelers leading the horses on foot, they suddenly became energetic.

Surdak took the lead and moved towards the two rebels who chased them, Ogre Gulitum did not fall behind, and the two simply did not hide their whereabouts, so that the other side found out very early. Trying to catch up with Surdak, the two rebels were very alert. Seeing Surdak catching up, without the slightest hesitation, they turned on their horses and fled northward.

The two rebels did not ride horses along the way, just to keep the two horses strong when they flee.

So at first they ran very fast, and the distance between them and Surdak was getting further and further, but the endurance of these two horses was very average, and gradually when the sun was about to set, the speed gradually slowed down. Down.

The war horse Surdak is riding is his Old Partner. Since its broken leg was strengthened by Ferdinand’s scholar magic scroll, its physical fitness is much better than that of ordinary ancient Bora horses.

ogre Guliterm only cares whether the rebels can eat the two horses, and has been steadily following Surdak, no matter how fast Surdak’s horses run, ogre can chase them with two big feet. Come up.

When there was a hundred meters away from the two rebels, Ogre Gulitum bent down and picked up a rock the size of a flying disc from the ground. He took a deep breath while running. , Stretched back the hand holding the edge of the stone, and then suffocated his breath, and threw the stone abruptly.

The rock is like a spinning flying saucer, and it screams at the rebels ahead.

When the rebels realized that it was not good, the stone was already on the right back, and the sharp stone suddenly opened a Daoist Priest wound on the horse.

With a neigh, he almost knocked off the rebels on horseback.

The two rebels saw that the situation was far from good, and immediately fled to the left and right. Surdak pointed at the horse that was injured by Ogre Gulitum and motioned him to take responsibility. The rebel, and he hurriedly pursued another rebel.

Originally, Surdak thought that the rebels were all powerful warriors. As soon as they contacted, Surdak felt that the rebels had little battle strength, but he was still very cautious. The sword fought the rebel once, and the heavy sword in his hand cut off the long sword of the rebel warrior. Surdak sat on the horse, then waved the dwarf chain shield in his hand and smashed the rebel down. .

These actions are in one go, and almost no effort was wasted to subdue the rebels. Looking back at Gullitum, this ogre has already started looking for ropes everywhere, awkwardly pulling the rebels Sturdy.

Two horses were seized this time. Although one of the horse's thighs was injured, there was Surdak. I believe that the horse’s injuries will heal soon.

The village of Wall is extremely short of horses, and Surdak very decisively refused ogre's request to taste horse meat.

Subsequently, Surdak brought the two rebels back to the village of Wall, and sent someone to send a letter to Karl in Helanza, telling him that the two rebels who had escaped had been captured here.

Surdak locked the two rebels in a wooden cage next to the village kobold slave shed and asked Luke, who was in charge of the group of kobold slaves, to help guard them.

Before Surdak went home and had a good night’s sleep, Luke, who was in charge of guarding the two rebels, caught up with Surdak and said, "Duck, those two people asked to talk to you. Talk, saying that I want to make a deal with you..."

Surdak waved his hand to Luke and said, "Ignore them for now, let them calm down, otherwise they don’t know what to offer. Conditions, what qualifications do they have now to negotiate conditions with me......"
