Looking at the lid of the box that was lifted, revealing a dazzling sharp weapon inside, Chi Gu couldn't help but exclaim.

"Hmph, it's not hard to guess. The most scarce thing in the desert is metal ore, and the desert coalition forces fight for the Orion Empire every year, not for money, but for metal, a lot of metal.

In fact, the Orion Empire has always been very strict with desert merchants smuggling metal ores. However, people die for money, birds die for food, and the huge profits make the desert people feel that it is still worth taking this risk. Kaylar snorted, as if he had already guessed.

"I don't understand. If metal is lucrative, why would they take such a risk to sell women?"

"Haha, although in the eyes of our elves, the appearance of your human race is a little ...... Well. But you haven't seen any desert women, dark and rough with their skin, and very stout.

Maybe I'm wrong, maybe the most scarce thing for desert people is not metal mines, but women. Kaylar laughed.

Chi Bone thought that Kailar was an elf, so his vision was too high. But when I thought of the desert man's dark brown rough skin, it suddenly occurred to me that there might be some truth in what he said.

At this moment, there was a new change on the two sides over there.

"The people of the Prince's Mansion seem to be leaving, don't they care about the smuggling?

"Perhaps Prince Lunn disdains this merit. Chi Gu said indifferently, he didn't care about any of that.

"Others may not care, but Prince Lunn certainly cares about this kind of merit.

Although the people of the royal family have noble blood, they are actually in an awkward position of power. The people of the royal family do not have the right to inherit the status of their ancestors, and even if they are princes, it is even more difficult for other princes to become princes except for one who can inherit the throne.

If you want to get ahead, in addition to military merits, it is a political achievement, otherwise you can only hang the name of royal blood for the rest of your life and wait for death.

Although the princes of His Majesty Emperor Aldrich have no talent, fortunately, they are all self-aware, and no one competes with the eldest prince for the throne. In the future, the eldest prince will definitely not treat these younger brothers badly.

But Prince Lunn is different, don't look at Prince Xia Zuo who is powerful now. After all, Prince Krunn is only a prince, and it will be difficult to inherit the position of prince in the future!" said Kiral, shaking his head.

"Maybe this matter is even more serious than we thought, otherwise Prince Lunn would definitely not let go of this opportunity to make meritorious contributions. Kellal continued thoughtfully.

"Let's go too, the people from the Prince's Mansion have already left. The Bone was about to get up and leave, but was held down by Keller.

"Don't worry, aren't those desert people gone either? Kaylal said.

The two patiently hid in the grass, and time passed little by little.

Suddenly, a sneaky desert man emerged from the dense forest next to the caravan. He ran to a middle-aged man and whispered a few words in his ear. The middle-aged man's attire highlighted his status as a different from the others, appearing to be the leader of the caravan.

"Can you hear what he said?" and as soon as Kiral saw the man return, his eyes lit up, and he had the expression he expected.

However, the next sentence of the Chi Bone made Kaylal's expression stiffen.

"I couldn't understand a word of what he said. Chi Gu shook his head and said.

The other party spoke desert dialect, and Chi Bone remembered that this man had left half an hour earlier.

The caravan leader brought something out of a wagon. Tearing off the black cloth covering it, it turned out to be a metal cage.

"An eagle?"

He saw a two-foot-tall, brown eagle standing in the cage.

I saw the leader of the caravan take out a pen and paper, write something on the carriage, and then take the eagle out of the cage. Shoved the letter into the metal pipe on the eagle's feet, it tossed the eagle into the sky.

"Quick, let's go up to that tree, your eyesight is good, and see where this eagle is going." Khalar pointed to what appeared to be the tallest tree not far behind him, and said hurriedly.

The two of them quickly jumped up the tree, standing on the trunk and looking at the eagle flying high in the distance. The eagle flew farther and farther until Kaylar couldn't see clearly.

"How's it going? can you still see clearly?" asked Kellar, looking expectant.

"It's okay, it's falling, it's falling, is it down, is it in that direction, you haven't crossed it. But I don't know where it fell. Chi Gu said.

"Haha, as long as we know the direction, let's go in the direction of the mountain, I guess Wendy is there. Kiral laughed and said affirmatively.

"How did you guess they'd be told?" asked the Devil in a tone of admiration.

"I guessed too. Although the desert environment is harsh and the competition is fierce and cruel, as long as it is external, they will be very united.

Three desert caravans left last night, so I'm guessing there must be a connection between them.

You may be thinking that maybe the eagle is just out hunting. But no eagle would go that far to hunt, so I concluded that it was out to deliver the news.

The mountain was not in the direction of Tamuya City, and no other desert caravan could have gone there. Unless ......"

"Unless it's a desert man who wants to take a detour. The Bone continued with Kaylar's words. city

"You don't seem to have a crush on desert people, do you?" asked Grassbone.

The two of them hurried in the direction of the black-scaled horse. Snap suddenly remembered the disdain in Kailar's eyes when he spoke of the desert people.

"The desert people are more respectful of survival of the fittest than you people in the Eastern Continent. They are ruthless to the weak and extremely cruel to the losers.

Who can go to the Eastern Continent to break through the desert merchants, who doesn't have a dozen lives in their hands?"

Kiral's tone was undisguised with disgust. As believers in the goddess of life, the elves hate this kind of wicked person who does not respect life.

"Kailar, there's the mountain where the eagle fell ahead, but the carriages around here can't be passed at all?"

The two of them walked more than ten kilometers until they came to the foot of the mountain, but they still didn't find anything.

"Strange, let's look around again. ”

Keral also looked puzzled, there was a valley in front of him, and when viewed from above, the valley seemed to be very deep, covered everywhere with a dense canopy, and it was impossible for a carriage to pass through it.

The two searched separately for a long time, until it was getting dark, and still found nothing.

The terrain around here is not gentle, and it is easy to fall into the towering valley when searching in the dark. Therefore, the two decided to rest for the night first, and when it was dawn, they were looking for it.

It had rained last night, and the ground was very wet, so Grassbone and Kailar found a big tree and planned to rest on it for the night.

The moon broke through the dark clouds, and it was already late at night, but the bones were tossed and turned and they couldn't sleep. His mind came back to him, Pine's haggard, sad eyes and tear-stained face.

Glancing at Kylar on the other tree, he saw that he was breathing evenly with his eyes closed, knowing that the other party was not asleep.

The scarlet quietly descended from the tree, did not ride a horse, and slowly left in the direction from which it had come. He walked a long way until he felt that Kaylar should not be able to hear anything, and then stopped.

He took off his leather armor, revealing armor that looked like metallic skin. The armor on his arms was retracted into the armor piece by piece, until his strong arms were exposed.

The squat bone squatted, suddenly jumped more than ten meters high, and opened his arms violently, instantly turning into two huge black dragon wings. He flapped his wings, familiarized himself with his body in the air, and then shook his wings and flew in the direction he had come.

Occasionally, he would go out of town at night to practice flying, and would not return until dawn. You can't move from side to side like a real bird, but you can still do it if you just fly in a straight line quickly.

The skull flies extremely fast, at least several times faster than the eagles seen during the day. If it weren't for the fact that he wasn't familiar enough with flying and didn't dare to fly at full speed, he even felt that his flight speed would not be much worse than that of the Green Elf Clan's Green Dragon.

If it weren't for the search for traces of the carriage and the full force of the journey, it would have taken at least more than an hour, but the flight of the skull took less than five minutes to return to the original point.

The scarlet shook its wings and fell vertically from a height of more than ten meters, and its wings reverted to arms again.

In a few hours, the caravan had already left. In the faint light of the moon, the skull observed the ruts and horseshoe marks on the ground along the road. Having determined the direction in which the caravan was traveling, it flew again.

At a height of 100 meters, Chi Gu finally saw the glow of the fire under the dense canopy. Tents were crowded around the campfire, and the carriage was parked on one side.

The skull didn't intend to get too close, and after falling in the distance, its wings quickly reverted to arms, and were once again covered in armor.

The skull has been wearing a mask ever since it came out. He thought for a moment, and the armor on his body suddenly changed, although it was still full body armor, but there were more spikes, which looked much more hideous.

On his shoulders appeared what appeared to be a thick but hollow ghost head and shoulder armor, which looked the same as his mask, but the hideous corners were not bent backwards, but bent upwards like demons recorded in the classics.

Looking at the change in the style of the armor on his body, the corners of his mouth under the bone mask curled slightly. But he couldn't see it, and the iris in his eyes began to turn red slightly.

Many desert people were drinking around the campfire, and there were a few people on the periphery who looked like they were on night watch. Bone searched carefully, but he couldn't find the caravan leader he had seen during the day.

"It seems that only one person can be caught and asked first. ”

The Bone spotted a desert warrior closest to him and quietly moved over. Taking advantage of the fact that everyone's attention was not here, he suddenly struck, covered the man's mouth with one hand, and dragged him into the bushes.

"Tell me, where is your chief? Don't make a sound, and don't think about lying, or I'll kill you. Chi Gu stared at the other party's somewhat frightened eyes, and said in a cold tone.

Seeing the desert warrior nodding, Chi Gu slowly let go of the hand covering the other party.

Suddenly, the desert warrior shouted, although the bone couldn't understand what the other party was saying, but thinking about it was nothing more than a warning of an enemy attack.

A red light flashed in his eyes, and he pinched the desert warrior's neck with his right hand, crushing it with a click.

The desert warrior's shouts stopped abruptly, tilting his head, his empty pupils staring straight at the skull. Although the skull was extremely fast, the shouts in the silent night had already alerted the other desert people.

Countless shouts rang out, and by the light of the fire, Chi Gu saw many people with weapons in their hands emerge from the tent and rush to his side.

"Found you!"

Suddenly, Chi Gu saw the caravan leader he had seen during the day, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, and the red light in his eyes flashed, and he rushed forward. Since it can't be sneaky, let's go hard.
