All the discomfort caused by traveling through the void quickly disappeared from Surdak.
Standing on the bank of the lava river, Surdak packed his luggage and put all the precious magic materials on the Salamander into the magic waist bag.
Charlie called a four-wheeled carriage from the foot of the mountain and loaded all the meat of the four salamanders into the carriage, preparing to transport them back to Wall Village. The meat of the salamanders was very tender and could be found in the market of Helensa City.
Sold for a very good price.
Although they can swim in hot lava rivers when they are alive, after death, if you marinate the salamander meat, skewer it and put it on the fire, it will still be sizzling and oily.
This river of lava continues to the top of the mountain.
Because Wall Village was attacked by rebel knights, the Surdak team gave up their plan to continue exploring to the top of Pussy Mountain.
Charlie and two other young men had already learned from Suldak that the village had been attacked by rebel knights. They were eager to know what was going on in the village and at home. Charlie heard that his father was seriously injured and wanted to rush back to the village right away.
.
Surdak hurriedly returned to the temporary camp downstream of the lava river. Luke had already led the kobold slaves to build a new camp at the foot of the mountain.
At the foot of Pussy Mountain, there is a kind of shale suitable for building houses. This kind of shale can be seen everywhere nearby. The kobold slaves brought a large amount of shale and built three roofless houses next to a cliff.
The roof of the work shed was covered with a layer of reed mats and then covered with dust-proof cloth. In just half a day, a minimalist temporary camp for the sulfur mine was built.
Luke installed the water-gathering rune board on a shady rock wall. Under the rune board, a stone trough was placed to collect water. The gem base in the center of the rune board was inlaid with a magic crystal.
As the fragments and magic power circulated, this water-gathering rune board continued to gather water droplets into the stone trough. At this moment, the stone trough was already filled with less than half of the clear water.
The mining camp is located downstream of the lava river, and this area is covered with lava underground rivers.
The so-called underground river of lava looks like a piece of black rock from the surface. Occasionally, smelly green smoke will rise in some places, but underneath these black rocks are like blood vessels, hiding rivers of lava. If you are not careful, you will
If you step on these black rock shells, you may fall into the hot magma, so it is very dangerous here.
Of course, lava underground rivers also provide people with convenience. The biggest advantage of this kind of underground river is that you don’t need to make a fire to cook. You only need to find a smoking gas hole on the nearby black rock ground and use a hammer to open the gas hole.
, you can see the magma flowing one foot below. You only need to sit a large iron pot firmly on the entrance of the cave to boil water, cook rice and make soup.
The kobold slaves seem very peaceful. In fact, as long as they are given food, these kobolds don't mind digging sulfur mines here.
Hearing that some changes had happened in Wall Village, Luke also wanted to return to Wall Village immediately. However, the newly built mining camp needed someone to stay behind. Hearing that the village chief Bright was seriously injured, he asked Charlie to return to Wall Village. He took the initiative
Choose to stay at the campground.
Then Surdak and his party rushed back to Wall Village overnight.
…
A rain washed away the blood in the village square, although some of the traces left after the battle were still vivid in my mind.
The slave camp work shed and children's home at the entrance of the village have completely collapsed. A group of kobold slaves with nowhere to escape chose to return to Wall Village after a long circle in the rain. Now they are all sitting quietly in the slave camp work shed.
On the ruins of , the rebel knights killed several kobold slaves, but it didn't seem to have much impact on them.
The rebel knights destroyed many earthen walls in the village, lifted off some roofs, and trampled many wheat fields by the stream. Even the dead tree at the entrance of the village was not spared. There was a broken knight's spear stuck in the trunk.
The wooden plaque in Ercun was also smashed into pieces.
Villagers from other villages have picked up the children from the children's home one after another. With the arrival of the rainy season, the villagers' hard days are coming to an end. When the ravines are covered with grass, at least in the 19 villages in the deserted land,
Some people will go hungry again.
The children's home in the village suddenly became much deserted, and even the children in the village came to eat there every day.
Selina moved the children's home to the carpenter's workshop next to the village square, built a simpler awning here, hung a wooden board on the outside of the earthen wall, and wrote some imperial words on it with charcoal to teach
Children in the village learn Chinese.
The injured villagers finally waited for Surdak and his party to return to the village.
Everyone looked forward to seeing Surdak riding his horse and rushing to the village. Surdak waved to the villagers, jumped off his horse, and cast the Holy Light spell on the village square.
During the treatment, Andrew, as Suldak's assistant, was responsible for re-bandaging the wounds and correcting the broken bones. From time to time, one or two heart-rending screams could be heard from the central square of the village.
Andrew, who has extensive experience in bone setting, knows that if a broken bone is connected crookedly, even if it heals in the future, it will be disabled. It is better to reconnect the bone before the bone seam has healed.
With Andrew's help, Surdak felt much more relaxed. He only had to focus on using the 'Holy Light Technique' to treat the injured villagers.
Charlie hurried back home non-stop. When he opened the door, he saw the old village chief with his upper body covered with bandages sitting on a recliner, being fed broth by Aunt Bright with a spoon. He couldn't help but stand at the door with a look of astonishment on his face.
The old village chief recovered quickly from his injuries. Under the protection of the 'Blessed Body', he was able to get out of bed by himself on the third day. This speed of recovery simply frightened the family, but they found that he had nothing but
In addition to the fact that the injury healed very quickly, there was nothing abnormal about the body, and the family gradually put their hearts back in their stomachs.
It has been two days since Samira left Wall Village, and there has been no news.
Only thirty-four of the horses left by the rebel knights survived. Sixteen of the horses were cut into horse meat, and each villager received a large piece of horse meat.
Surdak initially did not agree with eating these war horses. As a knight, these war horses are their closest companions. Many cavalry battalions have unwritten rules not to eat horse meat. Even if they starve to death, they will not eat it.
Companion, this is the basic virtue that a knight needs to possess.
However, the villagers of Woer Village have no taboo in this regard. They can count the days on both hands that they can eat meat throughout the year in Woer Village. It is basically impossible for the villagers to give up eating horse meat. Suldak let them divide the horse meat.
Eaten.
In the past two days, even the big iron pots in the kobold slave camp have been boiling large pieces of bone soup.
Kobold slaves have no psychological burden on these war horses. Like other subhuman races, they prefer to eat the internal organs of animals, believing that the internal organs are richer in fat and the meat is more tender.
Not many gold coins were found from these rebel knights. The most valuable thing they had on them was this set of hard leather armor. In addition to the hard leather armor, the weapons of the rebel knights were also pretty good, whether they were knight spears or long swords.
The knights' light shields were all very fine. As for the corpses of the rebel knights, the angry villagers hung them on crosses at the Paglos Pass to be exposed to the sun.
As a result, hundreds of scavenging vultures were circling over the Paglos Pass.
The tidal flats were reclaimed from the river bend outside the village. Under the nourishment of this rain, all the land was filled with sufficient water. Of course, the hard-working people of Wall Village would not miss such a rare opportunity to sow. Surdak came from Helensa
The seeds brought back from the city were planted on the newly reclaimed land.
Rainwater flowing from various hillsides flows into this drainage channel with a width of fifteen meters, and then is discharged into an underground river ten kilometers away.
In previous years, all it took was one rain to turn this place into a vast swamp.
This drainage channel now blocks a large amount of rainwater on the hillside from the tidal flats, turning this large tidal flat into hundreds of acres of fertile farmland.
This sudden rainfall stopped the construction site of the reservoir upstream of the village. The construction site was in a mess. The volcanic ash transported back from the depths of the barren land was soaked by the rain and turned into lumps of hard limestone.
This hard block of limestone needs to be calcined and ground again before it can be turned back into pozzolanic cement.
It is of course impossible to build a kiln for calcining cement under the current conditions in Vol Village, so the volcanic ash that was so painstakingly transported back from the depths of the desolate land was completely wasted and became worthless.
The bricklayers on the construction site have left Wall Village one after another. After the first rain falls, they will rush back to the village to farm. Otherwise, they will not be able to sow in time, which will affect the autumn harvest.
The land in the barren land is barren, so the villagers will not miss this best planting opportunity.
The main body of the police station built on the stone cliff in the upper reaches of the village has been completely completed. As long as the main beams are erected on the roof, the rafters can be laid on the tripods. Surdak does not plan to cover the roof with thick red thatch. He wants to pave the roof with
On the first floor of blue tiles, a terrace should be built outside the skylight of the attic to look into the distance. This kind of fish-scale square green tiles can be bought in the workshops of Helensa City. Most of the buildings in Helensa City are like this.
It is paved with this kind of blue tiles.
The business of purchasing green tiles, Surdak, was handed over to the carriage shop in Hiranza City.
The news that Vol Village was attacked by rebels soon spread to the city of Hiranza. Both the Hiranza Guard Camp and the Magic Union Law Enforcement Group sent people to learn about the specific situation. The person responsible for investigating the matter was Surdak.
My friend, as long as it is a security issue outside the city, the security camp cannot bypass Carl Casement.
As for the Magic Guild Law Enforcement Group, Lance Magician was sent again this time, so the matter quickly calmed down, and the loot captured in Wall Village was preserved to the greatest extent possible.
Of course, most of the electric magician Gerden's personal belongings were taken away by Lance. The Magic Guild would not let such a person whose strength is infinitely close to the great magician's personal belongings be left outside. As for the Magic Guild,
The specific compensation can only be determined after the specific value of these personal items is appraised.
Surdak heard from Karl's mouth that this group of rebels also attacked a noble manor in Bena City. How they sneaked into Hiranza City was unknown.
…
Surdak sat on a chair by the window, glaring helplessly at the succubus Aphrodite across the square table.
Aphrodite squeezed out a charming smile at him. Seeing that Surdak was not moved at all, her charming face suddenly fell, and she lowered her head like a child who had done something wrong.
There is a magic crystal in the shape of a key on the desk. This magic crystal was obtained from the magician Gelden and was secretly kept by the succubus Aphrodite. Now Surdak is sure that the magic crystal belongs to the Magic Guild.
Those magicians should be looking for this magic crystal.
Just now, the succubus Aphrodite injected mana into this magic crystal, and saw a shadow cast by the magic crystal, like a broken corner of a three-dimensional map, although Surdak did not know
Where is this, but no matter how stupid he is, he can guess that there are some secrets hidden in this magic crystal.
The Magicians of Gerden belong to the magic organization "Dark Moon Gate". If they knew that this magic crystal was still in their hands, they would definitely try their best to get this magic crystal back. Surdak did not want to be beaten by a group of people.
A mage who is good at space magic is thinking about me.
Recently, rebels coming to the north have appeared one after another in various parts of Bena Province. They probably came for this thing. They took the risk to sneak into Bena Province and kept the intelligence agency personnel in Bena City running around all day long. They were so busy
Worried, Surdak certainly did not want this group of rebel knights to attack Wall Village again.
This magic crystal actually fell into his hands, and Surdak rubbed his forehead with his hands.
"How about we hand over this magic crystal to the Hellanza Magic Union law enforcement team now?" Andrew sat at the door and suggested to Suldak.
He also knew that this matter was a bit troublesome. The rebel knights' attack on the village that Wall Village experienced a few days ago was probably related to this.
"Well, I will personally send this magic crystal to the Magic Guild. In short, this trouble cannot be left in our hands." Suldak nodded and said decisively.
Aphrodite heard that Surdak wanted to hand over the magic crystal to the Magic Guild, and hurriedly covered it with her hands.
"Remember when you asked me to interrogate those two rebels?" Aphrodite said to Surdak.
"..."
Of course Surdak remembered.
However, not long afterward, the two rebels died while being escorted back to the city of Hiranza. He was busy building Wall Village, so he did not interfere with the matter.
The succubus Aphrodite blinked and said: "I used hypnosis on the two rebels at that time. They told me that the reason why they walked through the deserted land and entered Pagolos Mountain was because the rebel organization wanted to
Looking for a secret place in the Pagolos Mountains, I think the answer may lie in this magic crystal."
This trouble seems to be bigger than expected...
"No, I'll leave immediately, this magic crystal can't stay with us!"
With that said, Surdak was about to pick up the magic crystal from the table. Aphrodite was a little reluctant, so she held down the magic crystal with her hands. Each of them held one end of the magic crystal, and with a little force, this
A piece of magic crystal that looked a bit old actually cracked...
