The ideal is beautiful—if Bai Mu is not from the White Snake Clan and cannot cross the void as he wants.

Therefore, when Li Ye flapped his wings and turned back, Qin Feng did not act too surprised.

"Lost?"

"Hmm." Li Ye retracted his wings and nodded helplessly. The clue was interrupted again, and she and Qin Feng seemed to be back to square one.

"I found a new clue in that video you took."

Qin Feng watched the video that Li Ye sent to him over and over again.

Li Ye also opened the video when he heard this, and then listened to Qin Feng say slowly: "Two doubts." First, the group of soldiers had to mine 50 truckloads of ore before it got dark. Is it really necessary to build containers? And the breath of the scepter disappeared, and Bai Yan had already succeeded. Why did he and Bai Mu continue to let people mine ore? If not, what is the ore used for?

Second, when Bai Mu spoke to the soldiers, he used a threatening command tone. Why would a human soldier follow his orders? ”

It seems that the whole thing is not so simple.

Li Ye pursed his lips after thinking about it.

Who would have thought that Bai Yan and Bai Mu would be mixed up with the human forces. So what role did this human force play in the theft of the White Snake Scepter? It's impossible to work for Bai Yan without trying to do anything, right?

Comprehending the meaning behind Qin Feng's words, Li Ye thought about it and began to summarize seriously: "So next, we have to figure out which force Bai Yan is uniting with. Through this force, we may be able to find the whereabouts of Shiroam and the Scepter. In addition, they had to mine 50 truckloads of ore before dark, and whether they sent someone to pick it up or transport it, it was also a line that could be pursued. ”

"That's right." Qin Feng nodded.

"Then let's wait here for them to collect enough ore or ......" Li Ye paused, just now she suddenly had a bold idea, "Or should we take the initiative, such as helping them speed up the mining progress of ore and find out the news by the way?" ”

"Tell me about it." Qin Feng hooked the corners of his lips, and he stared at Li Ye as if he was showing great interest in this proposal.

In her field of vision, a sly light flashed in Li Ye's eyes, making her ordinary face glow with a strange look.

Li Ye briefly sorted out his thoughts and said to Qin Feng: "We can ...... completely."

Seeing that the sun was slowly shifting, the task assigned by Lord Bai Mu was only one-third completed, how could this make the captain of the soldiers not rush to get angry.

Just as he was pacing back and forth like an ant on a hot pot, he suddenly heard a stern reprimand from the other side of the mine.

"Who are you? Didn't you see this place covered by us? Go, go, go! Come closer, don't blame me for being unkind! ”

It was the soldiers stationed at the edge of the mine. Opposite the soldier stood two adventurers, a man and a woman.

There's no more chaos at this time!

The soldier's captain's expression instantly became solemn.

He walked over, examined the man and woman in front of him, and turned to question the soldier in charge.

"What's going on?"

"Captain, they insist on breaking through!" The soldier glared at the two men again.

"Is there such a thing?" The captain of the soldiers narrowed his eyes dangerously, and then saw the female adventurer touch her nose as if innocently, and said politely and unhurriedly: "Your Excellency, in fact, things are not all what he said."

"As you can see, we are adventurers traveling on the continent, always looking for an opportunity to prove our worth and be recognized by others. I happened to pass by here and saw an army stationed here, and while I don't know what happened here, the dedication of you and your soldiers is still impressive. For this, my companions and I extend our sincerest respect to you! Of course, if there is a need for us, please do not hesitate to ask, we are willing to serve you great soldiers! ”

Service?

The captain of the soldier touched his stubble-covered chin, and his eyes lit up.

The mine does need manpower. Isn't it a good thing that an adventurer takes the initiative to send to the door?

Thinking of this, the captain of the soldier turned his face to the soldier who had just scolded him and gave the latter a look: "You! Get two sets of tools for them and take them to the mines! ”

"Yes!"

At the same time, Li Ye and Qin Feng coincidentally received a reminder of the collection task - they each had to collect 80 pieces of Mithril ore in one hour. Completing the quest will give them 2,000 XP and 200 reputation for the main city of Treacherous City.

After taking over the task, Li Ye, who followed behind the leading soldiers, quietly glanced at Qin Feng, and after a short eye contact, the two sides decided to stay still and dig out more clues.

"A pickaxe and a basket."

On the other side of the mountain is a small camp, presumably for the NPCs of the soldiers overseeing the mining to rest at night. The soldiers took Li Ye and Qin Feng to the camp and took out two tools from one of the barracks that was specially used to store equipment.

Feeling that the pickaxe had some weight in his hand, Qin Feng took her one from Li Ye's hand after checking it.

"Thank you." Dawn nodded.

The soldier gave them a thoughtful look, but said nothing, and led them directly to the mine.

"Say, I'll give you these two free laborers." After confessing to the meaty-faced overseer, the soldier thought for a moment and added, "The head says they're adventurers—" he pouted at the busy figure standing on the rock, digging a mine, "unlike these slaves." ”

"Adventurer? Hey! It's a surprise! After the soldier left, the overseer smiled at Li Ye and Qin Feng, and then glared at the horizontal flesh on his tangled face and warned viciously, "But in my eyes, you are no different from those slaves!" No one is allowed to be lazy! Don't even try to escape! If I find out that anyone has the idea of escaping, you will end up with the same fate as him! ”

Smack-

A whip was whipped not far away, tied to one of the slaves of the Standing Pillar.

The slave hung his head, his skin already peeled open, and his body was covered with hideous blood. However, as the overseer's whip fell, it didn't cause him to groan in the slightest, indicating that the NPC had already choked its breath, and only the corpse was still tied to the stake.
