Chapter 90: It's Estimated to Have Rotted Out (Asking for Votes)

"This is the situation, Second Young Master, the opportunity must not be missed, it is full of high-value codes and books, a whole ten thousand copies, and someone will grab one of the four hundred gold coins that is sold, that is four million gold." Ander knelt in front of Akaros and persuaded him bitterly.

Akaros is the second in line to the throne of the Southern Duchy, and has been stationed in the city of Motie for many years, compared to the capital of the principality, the city is a remote mountainous area where birds don't, and was sent to garrison here, almost like exile.

Akaros misses the capital's cabaret troupes, circuses, sauna dancers and bath girls, but it seems that he will never go back.

With the economic conditions of the Iron City, he can't even afford to raise private soldiers, and the border troops stationed here are not under his jurisdiction, and they will rotate every few years, and he doesn't even have the opportunity to mix sand.

Having no military power and no economy is equivalent to blocking his way to compete for inheritance, so Akaros has become a bit self-defeating, drinking and having fun every day, drunk and dreaming of death, because he has nothing else to do except drink.

As a result, it was not until the third day that Ender caught Akaros awake.

"Four million gold?" the hangover Akaros shook his head and repeated with some confusion, a little doubtful that he had heard the wrong thing.

"Yes, four million gold, if we can master this line, it will not be just four million, but a long-term source of wealth. Ender said wistfully.

Akaros' eyes were dilated, and he was empty for a long time before he seemed to understand the meaning of Ender's words, and then, the two key words of four million gold and long-term wealth finally dispelled his sleepiness.

"Is there really so much money?" Not to mention the long term, just talking about the 10,000 books in front of him, if it is really worth four million gold, it will be enough for him to raise a private army of 10,000 people for ten years, with such a force in hand, doesn't it mean that he still has a chance to fight for inheritance?

Even if the inheritance can't compete for the eldest brother, it is absolutely no problem to fight for one or two prosperous cities as fiefs, and it is better than a poor country like Motiecheng.

Thinking of this, Akaros's heartbeat slowly accelerated, but as the second in line to the throne, Akaros's basic self-control was still there, he thought about it and asked, "Is the 'book' you said really so good?"

"Of course it's true, Second Young Master, how dare I lie to you? That kind of book is so big, so thick, and the words on it are exactly the same size, all the size of flies, I suspect that it is not written at all, but some kind of secret method is printed, so that the size can be the same. One book can print the contents of two large boxes of parchments, and it is such a wonderful thing to hold in your arms and easily flip through them, and all nobles and magicians will go crazy about it. ”

Ander was very excited to describe the advantages of books, if it weren't for the obvious advantage of books, he would not have come to see Akaros for three days in a row, if he could hold it in his hands, it would really be a splash of wealth.

Originally, Mobuck paid his taxes normally according to the tax amount he set, and in the spirit of the mentality of a long stream, Ander would not use this crooked brain, who knew that Mobuck would actually leave, go back, and the great wealth would fly away like this, how could Ander be willing.

"Who is the other party?" asked Akaros after a long pause.

As soon as he heard this question, Ender knew that Akaros was tempted, and quickly said: "The leader of the team is an undead spirit, they claim to be a caravan with steel bones, but the team is full of humans. ”

Seber, Lena and the others all used the activation liquid, and on the surface, they couldn't tell that they were lichs, so they were recognized by Ander as humans, and it was because of this that he scoffed at the term "Steelbone's Caravan", where did the Steelbone's Leader come from to live?

"The Steel-Bone Collar, the Dead Man's Territory at the South End?" Akaros' heart tightened, and his lazy body sat up straight in an instant.

As the second heir to the Iron Grinding City, Akaros certainly knows the true details of the Steel Bone Collar, but he doesn't believe it very much, after all, it is all three hundred years ago, and in the human world, three hundred years ago is enough to become a legend.

But legend after legend, the name Steelbone Collar is still quite intimidating in Akaros's heart.

"Well, that's what he said, but how can there be so many living people in the Steel Bone Ridge, I think it's more like the caravan in Rose Town in the south, it is estimated that the value of the things transported is too high, and it is scary to move out the name of the Steel Bone Collar, not to mention that even if it is the Steel Bone Collar, it hasn't appeared for three hundred years, maybe those bone racks are all rotten. ”

Ander said disapprovingly, in human cemeteries and mass graves, the buried corpses are not three hundred years old, and they will rot in three years, and he really thinks that even if there is really a king of steel bones, the bone frame should rot.

Akaros nodded, feeling that it made sense, the undead disaster was spread very mysteriously, but why didn't it appear again for three hundred years? And Ander was right, there were so many living people in the caravan, it couldn't be a caravan with a steel bone collar.

On one side is the steel bone collar that only exists in the legend, on the other side is the caravan suspected of Rose Town, and on the other side is the huge temptation of four million gold, Akaros slapped his palm: "It's done." ”

Later, Akaros inquired in detail about the caravan's strength, and when he learned that the undead of the leader of the caravan was likely to be a great magician, and that there were hundreds of bone horses in the team, he knew it in his heart.

"Second Young Master, I sent a sand snake to follow them, and I can get more detailed information then. Ender said.

Sand snakes are not a snake, but a profession, only found in deserts or deserts such as the Thorn Heath, they are short, but they have a special ability to breathe in the sand, and can swim slowly under the sand, and are good at tracking enemies in desert environments.

Knowing that there were a large number of undead creatures in the caravan that was being followed, and that the leader of the caravan was still an undead, the sand snake chose to sneak into the sand to reconnoiter during the day when the sun was most intense, and then left before the sun went down, and quickly figured out the details of the caravan.

That night, a cavalry of 1,000 men quietly left the city of Grinding Iron and disappeared into the night. At the head were two great mages and two low-level sword masters, all four of whom were Akaros' personal guards.

The leader Marin was very excited, and according to Ender's description, he also recognized the value of books, but what attracted him even more was the subtitle of the Fire Codex - the Esoternal Foehn Cultivator Handtie.

And he happens to be a fire magician, he has been stuck in breaking through the level of the magister for a long time, and he has not been able to find the direction, if the other party sells the code of law really has the content of the occult foehn wind's hand piercing, maybe he can really find a trace of inspiration for a breakthrough.

The other party is a caravan from Qiangwei Town, and there is a very good chance of possessing the hand of the Oganser Foehn Wind, after all, the owner of that town is a lich, and the ghost knows how many adventures he has encountered in the course of his long life.

At the same time that Ma Lin and his entourage left the Iron Grinding City, in the wasteland a day's journey away from the Iron Grinding City, Luo Qi, who was riding the immortal Chenguang, just caught up with the main force of the skeleton and pressed towards the Iron Grinding City together.
