Chapter 294 Breakout
Chapter 294 Breakout
"What? The Higanbana guild? Ever since their battle with the Demon King, all the members have kept a low profile in recent years, especially the Hero, who has simply disappeared."
"Master Brave?"
"What's the matter? You haven't even heard of the name of the brave Lord Miss Giles. Are you from the countryside?"
"Uh... sorry."
In a tavern in a small border town of the Kingdom of Claude, Miss was warming herself with a glass of hot wine.
The strongest of the northern kingdoms is the Kingdom of Claude, which borders the Kingdom of Firris to the south and the Holy Kingdom of Veratis to the southwest.
It is also the hometown of the new swordsman Marknik and the two presidents of the A-level guild [The Nameless].
After leaving the Sky Island, Miss discovered that the Sky Island Dragon City, unknown to the world, was actually located above the huge glacier north of the northern countries.
He had heard of the Great Glacier a long time ago. Although it was not as precipitous as the Arctic Ice Land, it was also a well-known uninhabited area.
However, when Miss looked down at the glacier when he landed, he unexpectedly discovered that there were many teams of soldiers patrolling nearby.
"You're not here to stop me, are you?" With this thought in mind, he used props to hide his breath.
It landed right in a pit.
Only after Miss entered the pit did he understand why there were soldiers patrolling here.
It is called a pit, but it is actually a mine.
Mines can be seen everywhere on this continent, but these are all large veins of black crystal magic ore, which Miss has never heard of.
It is no exaggeration to say that whoever can sell a portion of the black crystal magic ore in this pit will become rich enough to rival a country.
If a country truly controlled this place and used the black crystals here to develop powerful props, the national strength would double.
Although she was shocked, she adhered to the principle of sharing the money in half when they met, and filled her little all-purpose package.
Looking at the remaining half of the black crystal magic ore, he could only sigh and complain that his package was still too small.
what?
You say this is someone else's thing?
Mies: This is clearly a gift from nature. I have always been very lucky.
After taking a sip of the hot wine, Mith felt much warmer.
After leaving the Great Glacier disguised as a patrolman, he headed south until today, when he was blocked at the southern border of the Kingdom of Claude.
Most of the adventurers in the tavern were discussing this matter.
"What happened to the Holy Kingdom of Veratis? Why is it suddenly going to war?"
"I heard that Count Psycho personally led the troops to block all our exits to the south. This time we might actually have to go to war."
"But why?"
"Why else? For money, for land. Aren't wars fought for these things since ancient times?"
"Our place is covered in ice and snow. It's definitely not for the land. I guess they come here for the money."
"But our entire northern region, the six countries combined, are not as wealthy as the Holy Kingdom. We don't have money."
“That’s strange…”
Miss raised his head, drank all the hot wine in the cup, left the silver coins, pushed the door and left the tavern.
He could probably guess what the Holy Kingdom was for.
Black crystal vein.
That thing is valuable.
Miss tightened the package tied to his belt and said, "We can't stay here for long. We have to return to the Kingdom of Firris."
If he wanted to get rid of Tartarus before the end of the Millennium Agreement, he obviously couldn't do it alone.
At this time, Miss was promoted to LV5 and almost obtained all of Sylph's power, and he already had the strength to fight against LV7.
But after all, there is more than one member of the [Servant].
He must first go to the city of Sojer to find his companions.
However, given the current situation, it seems difficult to break through the encirclement successfully.
Although the Holy Kingdom only dispatched 70% of its army this time, the Knights of the Church did not participate.
But the northern countries still did not dare to lose face and allowed the Holy Kingdom army to enter the border.
I heard that they have set up magic in the sky and will not let even a bird go. They are arrogant and unreasonable.
According to Miss's current combat capability, it is not difficult to break through the encirclement by force.
But afterwards, you will inevitably be hunted down by the army, which will be very troublesome.
He needed to find a more peaceful, easier way.
Just when Miss was at a loss, a suspicious team of ten people walked out of the town.
Miss saw at a glance that there was something wrong with this team, and quietly followed them, intending to use the same trick again.
"Isn't this the solution..."
The team was well-trained and easily passed the border guards of the Kingdom of Claude and arrived at the Holy Kingdom’s army’s base outside the city.
The team leader prepared his team members and prepared to report the intelligence obtained from this secret infiltration to his superiors.
"The commander will be here soon, stand still and report your numbers!"
The remaining nine soldiers counted one by one until the last soldier.
The soldier raised his head and chest, "9! The count is over!"
When he finished reporting the number with high spirits, he attracted questioning looks from other soldiers.
The team leader also noticed him, and walked over slowly with one hand on the hilt of the sword.
Seeing this, the last soldier pretended to be calm and muttered something under his breath.
"Isn't that right? In college military training, we were taught to say 'full force' when the last person has finished counting. But this is a different world after all, so 'finished' should be fine, right?"
At the captain's command, the other team members drew their swords and surrounded the last soldier who reported the number.
"Your number is... not right, right?"
The surrounded soldier was stunned. He smiled awkwardly and said, "Captain, is there anything wrong?"
The team leader's face was solemn and his eyes were full of anger.
"Your disguise is indeed very good, but my good brother Jenny speaks very incoherently. The stuttering problem is congenital. You obviously don't understand this!"
The captain's words stunned the fake "Jenny".
"Oh no, they picked the most distinctive ones..."
The team leader drew his sword and slashed at "Jenny".
"Jenny" stopped pretending and jumped back lightly, escaping from the encirclement.
A black magic robe appeared, and the big wizard hat was straightened by him. The damaged yellow crystal wand in his hand emitted light.
"Your good brother is not in danger of life, he is just unconscious. Let's make a deal. I am leaving here and heading south. You must not tell anyone. The reward is that I will tell you the whereabouts of your good brother."
Miss didn't want to make things worse and be surrounded by a large army.
The team leader rushed over again, brandishing his sword, and seemed to have no intention of making a deal with Miss.
"I can catch you and torture you to get you to tell me where Jenny is!"
Miss kept dodging without fighting back. "Hey, hey, hey, I'm warning you. I know your superior. If you make me angry, you will suffer."
Of course he didn't know the commander, he just wanted to scare the team leader.
However, the team leader obviously values his good brother very much and is not afraid of Miss's intimidation at all.
"What a coincidence, I know you, sir."
Seeing the determined look of the young captain, Miss was completely at his wit's end.
"Tsk, is this all we can do?"
