·“ Anyway, I saved you, so you don't need to be so hostile to me, right?" Merlin smiled with a very friendly smile on her face.

In the gloomy cavern, she sat opposite the elven maiden, rummaging through the backpacks left behind by the adventurers, and in one of them, she found a map, not very complete, but carefully drawn.

"I don't believe you. Leia looked at Merlin fiercely, the witch didn't beat her, but deceived her, trying to deceive her of the whereabouts of the Order of the Phoenix.

"Why are you such an elf?"

Mei Lin was also speechless: "Do you think that with just the two of us, we can set foot on the Order of the Phoenix? I am a wandering wizard who accidentally awakened the bloodline of the Phoenix Warlock, and this Yi is looking for the Order of the Phoenix, one is to find a backer, and the other is to go further." So I don't have the Order of the Phoenix badge on me, isn't that normal?"

Leia stared at Merlin, wondering if her words were true or false.

"I don't like human trafficking, so I don't want to know where your lava elf tribe is. Tell me the location of the Order of the Phoenix headquarters, and we'll just find it ourselves, and we don't need you to lead the way. We're two clear. ”

Merlin said, pulling over a delicate leather backpack.

"Don't move, this is my backpack. Leia rushed over, but as soon as she arrived, a long sword flashed with a palpitating light and pointed at her forehead, "Be honest! I can't get used to those scumbags when I save you, but it's not to please you, since you don't agree to the deal, then forget it." But this is my trophy, you keep it away!"

Mei Lin sneered and put away the soul shadow, continued to check the backpack, and sighed: "Look at you poor, the things in it are not as valuable as the backpack itself." ”

"We're not poor, it's just, just not as greedy as you Terrans. Leia said through gritted teeth.

During this time, she had also seized bread, cheese, wine, and other food from human adventurers, which, to admit, were too tasty to be eaten in the tribe.

"It's not poor, look at what's in it?"

Merlin took out a blackened tuber plant from her backpack, "This is your standing food?No wonder it is one of the oldest fighting races on the continent, why is its combat effectiveness so low, just eat this kind of thing, even a giant dragon can't beat a volcanic centipede, right?, let's make a fair deal, you use the resources of the tribe, and I use all kinds of living materials or potions...... Of course, this deal can be discussed after I enter the Order of the Phoenix, after all, I haven't settled in yet. ”

Leia was silent, and Merlin didn't urge, but carefully checked every corner of her backpack.

"You...... How do you know the current state of my tribe?" Seeing that Merlin did not speak, Leia couldn't hold her breath, not only because she was surprised that Merlene was accurate, but also because she was about to discover the most important thing in her backpack.

"Secret!"

Merlin shrugged her shoulders, and the smile on her face almost Leia to death, and she wanted to scratch it two or three times on her pretty face, but she couldn't care about it now, and her heart almost went to her throat, because Merlin was getting closer and closer to her hidden treasure.

The answer is actually very simple, for a cautious person like Merlin, through the daily supplies in Leia's backpack, the current situation of her tribe and her standard of living can basically be deduced...... In a word, it is very poor, and there seems to be no shortage of minerals, because there are as many as six metal ornaments on the backpack.

"You seem nervous, huh?"

Mei Lin kept secretly looking at Leia from the corner of her eyes, and when she saw her expression change, she couldn't help but look up and tease, "Could it be that there is a secret in this backpack?"

"You're nervous. Leia turned her head, but still looked subconsciously.

No wonder she was nervous, this time she sneaked out to take risks, because she was afraid of getting lost, she stole the most complete map of the tribe in her father's hand, which not only has a complete lava Gobi geography, but also the distribution of major races and mineral deposits...... In short, if this map spreads, it will be equivalent to handing over the lifeblood of the entire lava elf tribe, and once it falls into the hands of greedy human adventurers, it will be a disaster for the race living in the lava Gobi.

This makes Leia how not to worry.

But the more worried you are, the more things will go in a bad direction—

"Huh? This seems to be a bit of fun. Merlin felt a bulge in the corner of her rucksack, so she pulled out a dagger and carefully escaped the stitches in that corner.

"It's over!" Leia lamented, knowing that no matter what she did, it would be irreparable.

"Your name is Leia, isn't it?"

Merlin smiled, they had already exchanged each other's names before, which was fine, but this lava elf may have had magma in her head, and she insisted that she was a liar because she couldn't get the badge of the Order of the Phoenix, and ended up making a good ally like this.

Moments later, a map hidden in the compartment of the backpack appeared in Merlin's hand.

This is a picture of some kind of dragon beast leather tanned treatment, depicted with blood in one go, not only light and thin, but also looking at the texture, it should have been passed down for a long time.

"It seems that this lava Gobi is really mysterious, there are so many places that are not only dangerous, I'm afraid that even you natives living in the area have not entered, right?"

Merlin unfolded the map and exclaimed.

"Hmph, what's so strange about that? This map has been handed down from our ancestors, and even the Order of the Phoenix has no more detailed information than this. Leia said in a low voice, "You must give me back the map, or you will be the enemy of our entire tribe!"

"If you're dead now, guess who's what your tribe thinks is the murderer, and whose hands will the map fall on?" Merlin looked at her with interest.

Leia's expression froze: "You want to kill me?"

"You've finally been smart for once. ”

Merlin smiled, "I'll give you half an hour, and you can come up with a reason why I won't kill you." ”

The map was detailed, even the veins and water sources were marked in detail, and it also had the location of the Order of the Phoenix, so Merlin didn't need to ask Leia anything at all.

Half an hour later, she looked up at Leia, who seemed to have calmed down, "Have you figured out why I won't kill you?"

"Are you really going to kill me?" asked Leia.

"Life and death are also a transaction. ”

Mei Lin said lightly: "I abide by the rules of fair trading, what are you going to trade with?"
