Dunham did not suspect them, there were many mountain people in the depths of the Hegel Mountains, and they moved their villages into the mountains to escape the war and conscription.

In fact, Dunham had thought about bringing them into his lords, but he had no ambitions, all he wanted to do.

Yamazaki was suspicious of them, because the timing was too coincidental.

A day and a half of walking 20 kilometers with slaves and a night of rest was enough.

It is likely that those robber merchants are outdated and do not return, so send a caravan to look for it, and 20 kilometers is enough for such an unburdened caravan for one day.

......

"Is this it?"

"Yes, I know some of those people. ”

"So what are you waiting for, brothers......"

"Wait, don't act rashly, Rodrigo they are not weak, they can take care of them, and they will also cause casualties to you. ”

"Then what do you say? That ice magic wand must be in your hands. ”

"Don't worry, we'll leave tomorrow, and then we'll come back in the evening to raid. ”

"Nonsense, you don't understand at all, detection magic can know the location of people, and a sudden attack is useless, otherwise the war would not have killed so many people. ”

"I know, there's also masking magic, which can isolate detection, enough to support small-scale operations. ”

"Will you?"

"I won't, but I have this. ”

Harvey triumphantly pulled out a dove-egg-like cyan magic stone with the power of the wind on it.

"Wind Barrier, there's this, what are you waiting for, we'll do it tonight. ”

"Hey, what's foggy. ”

"Ahh

Someone suddenly screamed and retreated, as if on fire.

"What's wrong?"

"Ah......h

More people shouted, and everyone noticed that the place where they touched the fog seemed to melt.

"This fog is weird, run away. ”

"Wind Barrier!"

Harvey activated the power of the magic stone, and a circle of cyan wind walls pushed away the mist, but the mist did not dissipate, but became thicker, dyeing the cyan wind wall black.

"This—this is a poisonous fog technique!"

"Oh my God, he's a dark archmage. ”

"Spare our lives, we don't dare anymore. ”

"Please, spare us, we are willing to be your messenger. ”

"Your Excellency, we are Viscount Barrys' men, he has discovered a magic stone mine, and we can cooperate. ”

......

Shan Dai didn't listen at all, and a wave of dark arrows rained down, piercing the barrier of the wind all over the hole.

The Poison Mist Technique suddenly surged in, corroding all 15 of them in an instant.

Shan Dai stopped in time, and the dim wind magic stone was finally preserved.

Looking at the experience points that did not rise, Shan Dai pouted, and the sum was not as strong as that Rodrigo summoner, but fortunately, there was no shortage of treasure chests.

After opening the box and holding the magic stone, Shan Dai withdrew without taking care of the aftermath.

This is what Yamazaki meant, even if everything is erased, it will still make the other party suspicious, so it is better to let the other party know that he is a dark mage.

......

In fact, Harvey, a merchant, was a spy for Viscount Barryls, gathering information through his business ventures.

Their goal this time was to find Rodrigo and the others, they had not arrived by the deadline, and Viscount Barrels was worried that something would happen to them and affect him.

It is a felony to trade slaves from privateers, not to mention that he is capturing slaves to work as miners and mining secretly found magic stone mines, which is a capital crime of raiding the family and exterminating the clan.

Therefore, the people sent are all warriors, and magicians are easy to be vigilant.

If something happens, he plans to use the Wind Barrier to carry out a surprise assassination and kill Rodrigo and others.

Viscount Barryls didn't know that Rodrigo didn't look down on him and didn't bother to show his strength, anyway, he just grabbed slaves and sold them to him, just an equal trading relationship.

So much so that Viscount Barryls miscalculated and did not come up with the combat power at the bottom of the box.

......

The next day, Dunham discovered the scene of the crime while making his rounds, and was also dumbfounded when he looked at the massive corrosion marks.

The Dark Poison Mist is a terrifying existence on the battlefield, and the most effective is the Wind Tempest Technique, so the Wind Mage is a must-have in every unit.

The rest are difficult to resist, and if you want to treat corrosion, you can exhaust the light mage to death.

......

Dunam didn't care, and the villagers were forbidden to approach, and the livestock goods were left there.

Half a month later, a team of knights from Viscount Barryls came to find it, under the pretext of looking for the missing caravan.

Dunham led them to the scene, and although half a month had passed, the traces of corrosion were still clear.

They also recognized it and went back with the samples to report.

Dunham opened his mouth to buy the rest of the cattle and goods, but they had already beaten their horses and left.

......

Barells Town, Castle Study.

"What, the Dark Archmage?" the sturdy Viscount Barryls had a headache.

"Don't worry, if he has the heart, he will come. Thunder Grand Magician Burton said proudly, "You can let him join us." ”

He was a blue-haired young man, under the age of 30, who came here solely because of the beautiful daughter of Viscount Barryls.

"Ah, that's a good idea, but what if he doesn't agree?"

"Then I'll clean him up and let him know that lightning magic is the most powerful. ”

With that, he departed, and Viscount Barryls watched him go, asking the knight about Dunham.

With a certain understanding of this country lord, he can be assigned to that place, and he is really poor.

In other places, you can get a charge of colluding with an underworld mage to harm the merchant traveler, but if you are poor like that, there is no oil and water to press the charge.

The money will be more than the harvest, so forget it.

But it's always a lord, so it doesn't hurt to woo him.

......

Knights of Dunam, at the entrance of the castle.

"My Viscount said that these supplies will be sent to you, if you find any traces of the Dark Archmage, please be sure to report it. ”

"Oh. ”

Facing this high-spirited Barrels butler, Dunham replied casually.

As a veteran, he knew very well that the Dark Great Magician was not something they could handle, as long as that person was willing, he would be a guest of the Empire, a royal guest.

......

The so-called supplies were the goods of the caravan, and Dunham divided them among them.

Livestock and farming tools are just right, and seasonings are even more difficult to buy with money.

In this way, everyone finally had a real recognition of this generous lord and settled down.

......

The days were quiet again, but a few days later, another caravan came, still several.

It is true that the mountain road over there is destroyed, and it can only be detoured from this side, although the road is farther, but there is no way.

Dunam simply organized people to clean up some empty houses and build a temporary rest station.

Don't charge money, but clean it up, otherwise you won't use it next time.

In order to prevent them from forcibly bullying the villagers, they were also brought into the castle.

It's crowded, but it's safe.

Yamadai felt uncomfortable, but Yamazaki told her to endure it.

Sure enough, the next morning, when the castle opened its gates, the caravans were gone.

When their guards wandered around and groped for the terrain, they discovered the scene of the poisonous fog technique, and they were experienced enough to deduce the poisonous fog technique.

Knowing that there was a dark archmage haunting the neighborhood and looking like he was robbing the caravan, they were so frightened that they didn't dare to rest all night, and slipped away as soon as dawn came.

No caravans came back all summer, and Dunam, who had returned from his mountain tour, said that the merchants had asked the earth magician to repair the mountain road that had been washed away by the mudslide.

And one summer, Yamazaki Yamadai has practiced the elemental summoning technique to the fullest.
