Chapter 111 Harpy Magic Crystal

"My lord, we found a cellar under Wade's bedroom!" Chris quickly came out and reported to Roger: "The entrance to the cellar is very secret, and there must be something shady inside. 【】"

This was the good news that Roger had been waiting for, and he hurriedly asked the knight to lead the way to check what they had found.

Although the Wade family's house looks very ordinary from the outside, the decoration inside is very luxurious, and one can tell that a lot of money has been spent.When Roger came to the bedroom, he found that the entrance to the cellar had been opened, and Phil was lighting it with a torch.

"I've checked, and there's only one room below, so there shouldn't be any danger." Seeing Roger come to the bedroom, Phil immediately reported his findings to him.

"I'll go down." Roger couldn't wait to know what good things were in the cellar, so he took the knight's torch and went down into the cellar first.

The area of ​​the cellar is about the same as the bedroom above, and it is specially dug to store things.There are many sets of armor, swords and even bows and crossbows hidden in the cellar.But these things were not what Roger was looking for, so he didn't pay much attention to them, but the two small boxes in the corner caught Roger's attention.

"I hope there are some good things in it..." Roger muttered to himself while opening a mouthful of the box, and he immediately smiled with satisfaction after he knew what was in the box.

A box full of kingdom gold coins is estimated to be at least six or seven hundred.Under the light of the torch, the golden light is reflected, which makes people's heart beat faster involuntarily.

"This guy Wade has hidden so many gold coins. It would be crazy to say that he has no problems!" Facing the box full of gold coins, Roger said with righteous indignation: "How much is the salary of the garrison captain for a month? I can't even save so much money, this guy is really a genius!"

Just as Roger scolded Wade, a hand quietly reached into the box and grabbed it hard.Immediately after his thoughts moved, the gold coins in his hand disappeared, and all of them were put into the advanced warehouse.But Roger was not satisfied with this, and repeated the same action several times in succession.It wasn't until the gold coins in the box were reduced by half that he stopped his hands unsatisfied.

After picking up the remaining gold coins in the box, Roger said angrily: "My hands are sore from grasping, and there are so many gold coins left. This Wade is too much! Forget it, take these gold coins as incriminating evidence, let everyone know What a guy!"

Thinking that it was all his own efforts that revealed Wade's true colors, Roger felt that he was really a righteous and noble person.As for the gold coins that were loaded into the upgrade warehouse, he had long ignored them.

Encouraged by the harvest of the first box, Roger soon opened the second box.However, this box is not full of gold coins, only a crystal the size of a fist.

"It's a magic crystal!" Roger, who had seen the world, immediately recognized what it was.

Compared with the box of gold coins, Roger was more interested in the magic crystal.He hurriedly picked up the magic crystal and examined it carefully, and immediately found that the shape of the magic crystal was like an oversized eyeball, especially the erect pupils in the middle were very lifelike, reflecting a breathtaking light under the light of the fire.

"The magic crystal of the harpy!" As soon as Roger knew what the magic crystal looked like, Castle Shu whispered excitedly: "Although it is only a magic crystal of a juvenile harpy, it is enough for us to build a super shooting range." , your luck is really good!"

"Of course, there is a saying in my hometown, 'Good man is rewarded'!" This unexpected harvest also made Roger very happy, and he couldn't help bragging triumphantly: "A good person like me, even if It's not surprising to find the magic crystal of a giant dragon, let alone a juvenile harpy..."

Harpy is a bronze high-level monster.This kind of flying monster is best at using the sharp knife-like feathers on its body as a weapon, shooting down like a sharp arrow in the high sky to attack the enemy, it is only a kind of monster that is difficult to deal with.However, their magic crystals are essential materials for building advanced shooting ranges. Ever since the castle was upgraded to level three, Roger has been worrying about how to get the magic crystals of the Harpy.Unexpectedly, such a good thing was found in Wade's cellar, which naturally made Roger very happy.

However, the castle hub didn't believe Roger's words, and immediately retorted: "Are you a good person? Why didn't I come out? I don't know who sent Wade's gold coins to the warehouse just now..."

"You know what a fart." Roger, who was exposed by someone, didn't mean to feel guilty at all, but retorted plausibly: "Wade framed me several times, I can't ask him for some mental damage fees? I only took half a box It's just gold coins, which is still a small amount! Do you know how much my pure heart has been hurt?"

"Cut!" Castle Hub sneered at Roger's thick skin, and was trying to find some words to expose his true colors, when Chris asked worriedly from above: "My lord, are you all right?"

The knight's voice interrupted the conversation between Roger and Castle Hub, and Roger quickly responded loudly: "I'm fine, I found evidence of Wade's corruption!"

When the two knights came to the barracks carrying half a box of heavy gold coins, the soldiers who had some doubts about Wade's crime immediately burst into an uproar.Everyone knows how much the captain of the defense earns. Wade actually hides such a large sum of money in his cellar. It goes without saying where it comes from.

For these soldiers guarding the pass, Wade's embezzlement of combat supplies was tantamount to risking everyone's lives.This was something the soldiers would not tolerate, and soon someone was shouting: "This bastard has embezzled so much money, hang him, hang him!"

"If these guys know that there are only half of the gold coins here, will they quarrel more than now?" Roger, who witnessed this scene, couldn't help but think to himself: "Now that guy Wade's charges are confirmed. It's useless to quibble!"

Under the shouts of anger from the soldiers, Roger quietly left the barracks.All he wanted was for Wade to be punished, and it made no difference to Roger whether the guy was hanged or had his head chopped off.Now that the overall situation is settled, there is no need for Roger to stay here anymore.

Three days later, Roger, who had recovered from his injuries, left the Linton Pass and headed for Mandos, the capital of the Thorne Kingdom, to meet King Fernando Alonso III in accordance with the order conveyed by Massa.

Roger led the two knights and other men along the road for a long way, and they could still reach the majestic and majestic Linton Pass behind them.But he knew very well in his heart that he would no longer be trapped in this small Lund Peninsula and the Lington Pass, and there was a bigger world waiting to be conquered in front of him.

"Goodbye, Lund Peninsula..." A warm breeze swept over Roger's face, blowing away the faint sigh in his heart.
