The mage arrives

Breakfast was spent in the gossip and ridicule of several men and the powerless defense of the two girls.

However, when a meeting was held to discuss the next move after the meal, everyone restrained their smiles and regained their professional qualities as experienced adventurers.

Captain Ronald unfolded the precious map that has accumulated countless experiences, and his finger stayed outside the aristocratic area of ​​the Sun Elf painted in orange: "Our current position is about here. Today, we will officially enter the Sun Elf aristocratic area." Elf Noble Area. It is very dangerous here. Not only are there more ferocious and filthy creatures in greater numbers, but you may also encounter sudden fierce fog attacks. In addition, although ordinary adventurers have no ability to enter this area, in other words , Those who can enter this area are all strong and experienced adventurers, and there is no one waiting for you."

"Hey, just like our lucky coins." The dwarf grinned, revealing his large molars that were yellowed with mead.

Everyone laughed lightly, and the atmosphere of confidence infected everyone.

Leaving the olive oil store where they stayed overnight, the lucky coin team continued to move forward cautiously.

After walking three blocks, the scenery in front of him suddenly changed.The exterior walls of the original gray-white building were all stained with a faint red, which was obviously the trace left after the passage of the fierce fog.Those plants that grew tenaciously in the crevices of the rocks are completely gone now, and looking around, there is a dead silence.

However, the change in scenery had no effect on the members of the Lucky Coin team. The dwarf was still counting the hours, hoping to get to noon sooner, so that he could enjoy food and wine again.The bard plucks the strings, straightens his silver hair—a handsome guy always pays close attention to his image.

While walking, Gordon used his eyes of truth and warning to check the surrounding situation from time to time, or chatted with the female priest beside him.

I don't know if it was because of the misunderstanding in the morning, but Gordon always felt that when talking to her, the cheeks of the blue-haired beauty would turn slightly red, as if a little ashamed.The atmosphere between the two of them also became a little, well, awkward, or weird.

Sera, however, was not affected at all. She stuck behind the team, running around from time to time, chatting with other people, or looking around, commenting on the elf buildings that had gone through the flames of war and the baptism of time.

After walking for about an hour, everyone came to a sun elf villa that occupied a huge area.Although the outer wall has already collapsed and the garden in front of the villa has been deserted and dilapidated, but just looking at the huge three-storey house, one can still vaguely feel how gorgeous and elegant it was back then, combining the nobility of nobility and the nature of elves. In one.

The halfling who was exploring the way in front returned to the main force, and he nodded to everyone: "Goddess Wojin bless you, look at the traces around, this villa has not been patronized by adventurers. Maybe our first adventure in this adventure The pen harvest is about to be excavated from here!"

This good news made everyone cheer, and everyone showed eager expressions.Even the elegant Cynthia had an excited smile on her beautiful face.

"Leave the task of finding the way to me and the mage." The halfling patted his chest and looked at Gordon.

Gordon nodded, and successively cast four spells on himself: Detect Magic, Detect Poison, Detect Secret Door, and Detect Undead. Several layers of magic aura shrouded him continuously.

"Spells are convenient, hey, I want to be a mage too!" Suan Li looked at Gao Gao enviously.

The halfling rogue is responsible for disabling physical traps, while Gordon is responsible for disarming magical traps.The two of them walked in the front, and the others followed later. The bard stood outside the gate of the villa and was in charge of vigilance. If other creatures approached, he would promptly notify the people inside.

squeak...

Most of the decayed door, whose frame was already hollow, was gently pushed open, making an old and feeble sound. , like a dying old man playing a mournful ballad with a broken violin.

"Oh, my skin is getting goosebumps." Sierra whispered.

Gordon did not find any magical aura within his field of vision. He waved his hand to indicate that everything was normal.The halfling beside him made the same gesture.

"Go upstairs first, focus on the master bedroom and study, and finally the basement."

Ronald has rich experience and knows where the property is usually hidden.After he gave the order, Gordon and the halfling walked up the creaking stairs.

Click!

The sudden sound startled everyone who had been cautious.Gordon looked back and found that the dwarf was blowing his beard helplessly and shrugged at him.

It turned out that Grago had accidentally stepped on the floor and collapsed it.

The guy's two stubby legs sank deeply into the stairs.Thanks to the thick waist of the bucket being caught by the plank, it didn't fall directly to the first floor.

"It's time for you to lose weight, Grag." The halfling jumped in place as if showing off.The wanderer, who is light in body and proficient in unloading skills, unexpectedly didn't make a sound.

"Bastard, if you are wearing heavy armor, holding a steel ax and a tower shield, you won't be much better than me!" The dwarf said with a snort, "Laugh at me again, be careful that no one will help you block arrows on the battlefield in the future."

"It's my fault, the heroic short-bearded warrior Grago." Sour Li smiled and bowed to the dwarf in apology, but there was not much apology in that tone.

Ronald shook his head, and reached out to grab the dwarf's back collar. His arm muscles twitched, and with a lift of his breath, he lifted out the "deeply troubled" Grago.

The equipment of the dwarf shield guard plus its own weight, at least more than 18 kilograms.Ronald was actually able to lift it with one hand. Gordon estimated that if evaluated by a numerical standard, the spear warrior's strength would be at least [-].

After the episode, everyone came to the second floor.After searching the study in vain, Gordon led the way into the bedroom.

A faded oil painting hangs in the luxurious bedroom, and the houseplants have long since died, leaving only a handful of black ash in the exquisite flowerpot.On the large gauze double bed, there seemed to be traces of fire, and it was scorched.

Gordon searched around and came to the east wall.The Detect Secret Door spell allowed his eyes to see a light blue rectangle floating on the wall.

"There is a secret door here." Gordon pointed to the wall, "Let me knock..."

Before he could pronounce the word "shu" from his throat, Ronald shot out directly, piercing a big hole in the hollow wall.Then the dwarf followed, raised the battle axe, swiped twice, and split the secret door open.

"Although I'm not reconciled, I have to admit that the strength of a fighter is cheaper than the spells of a mage. You should save some spell slots." Ronald glanced at Gordon and said very considerately.

The corner of Gordon's mouth twitched slightly, and he could only put on a slightly helpless expression.It is impossible for him to tell the other party that he has enough mana, and it is no problem to throw the second-ring percussion technique casually.

"There is no trap." The halfling who entered the secret door first shouted, and Ronald and Grago walked in. After a while, the two of them lifted out a large box from inside.Judging from their struggling expressions, the contents of the box must be very heavy.

Gordon did not use the tapping technique this time, but just stood aside and watched.The halfling took out a set of lockpicking tools, walked up to the dusty brass box, and fiddled with the lock with various delicate tools.

There was only a crisp sound of "click", and the box opened in response.

Everyone took a closer look and exclaimed almost at the same time.

"Oh! Tymora, you have taken care of me again!" Ronald was full of joy, and looked up, as if his eyes could penetrate the ceiling, reach the kingdom of the astral world, and gaze up at the face of the goddess.

The dwarf laughed and stroked his beard, thinking about how much wine he would be able to enjoy when he returned.

Sera and Cynthia were equally happy, and the two girls clasped their hands tightly, their excitement was beyond words.

Even Gordon, who was the wealthiest among the crowd, felt a little dazzled by the golden light in the box.

This is a box full of solid gold coins.Moreover, it is an ancient gold coin minted by the Sun Elf Empire.

The gold coins issued by the Freyton Empire today are not pure gold, but are made of gold, silver, and brass mixed in a ratio of five to three to two.After all, gold is a relatively rare precious metal. If all the gold coins on the market were made of pure gold, there would not be enough gold mines to supply them.

But the gold coins of the Elf Empire back then were pure gold.Even excluding the value of being an antique, an ancient gold coin minted by the Sun Elf Empire is worth at least four Freton gold coins.

Gordon made a rough count and found that there were at least 200 ancient gold coins in the box, that is, [-] Freton gold coins.That's a lot of money.Everyone in the adventure team can share a wealth of more than [-] nearly [-] gold coins.In the countryside, it is already possible to buy a lot of land and spend the rest of his life safely as a rich man.

Ronald was about to put all the ancient gold coins in the box into the dimensional bag, and the halfling and Sera next to him changed color almost at the same time, and put on a vigilant posture: "Attention, someone is coming up!"

Both ranger and rogue are professions with outstanding detection skills, so they were the first to discover the situation.

"Where's Gregor? Why didn't he raise the alarm when someone came?" Gordon said as he stepped back, putting himself in the safest position.As a mage, you must understand your responsibilities, and don't rush to the forefront like a warrior.

A bad premonition emerged in his heart.

Soon, a series of heavy footsteps came from far and near, reaching everyone's ears.Gregor first appeared at the door of the bedroom, and the bard smiled and nodded to everyone: "Everyone, have you gained anything? I brought you some friends."

A thick lavender-skinned arm bound Gregor's waist, and the bard's hands were also tied behind his back, with a rough sword hanging around his neck.
