Chapter 0008: Granary at the bottom of the well

"Heh, can't you just prompt it simply?"

Adam chuckled, grabbed the edge of the bed, said "excuse" to the unrecognizable craftsman, and flipped it over, finally finding the small door under the bed.

【Armor Craftsman's Secret Storage Room】

[Notes: Used to store his most precious belongings.] 】

When Adam lifted the partition, he was silent for a long time, and it was indeed a pity that the craftsman's child was placed inside.

He took off his leather armor, wrapped the little one in a softer lining, and returned to the square naked, against the harsh mountain wind.

The air here had begun to ripple, and his breathing had fogged up.

Ignoring the looming monster, Adam poured the ghoul oil from the soldier next to him, shook up the secret box, and stabbed it!

The cold little guy burned, and Adam sat shirtless, cross-legged, in the gloomy environment, like a wanderer baking a fire at night, facing the flames and thinking about the meaning of survival.

Behind him, there was a dismal spirit that was gradually fading, and the withered hand was on his shoulder.

Adam didn't tremble at all, and even raised his hand to pat it, but he only touched a hard object, and he opened his palm.

【Lady's phalanx】

[Good materials for alchemy and secret arts, but also evidence for the elimination of resentful spirits]

It was close to noon, and the sun pierced through the trees for a long time, leaving dappled pillars of light in the square, and for a few moments, the warm light lit up the whole area.

[You dealt with the resentful spirit, but you didn't properly check that small space, there are good things in it. 】

"Oh?"

Without further ado, Adam returned to the hut the same way, not forgetting to take the liner from the soldier who had just picked up his pants, no way, the size was about the same.

Adam crouched down again, looked at the barrel-sized storage room, reached in and groped around the edges, before pulling out a hide with a pair of boots painted on it from the place where the new earth had been buried.

【Drawing - Improved Riding Boots】

[Note: The masterpiece of the armor craftsman, if you bring it to the big man in the village to strike iron, you may be able to get something.] 】

Adam put away the artwork, his brow still locked, not only the badly damaged mill still has "! And the information in front of me has also changed.

[(Clue 2) Depressed and deformed storage room]

"Clue 1 was discovered on a commission from the head of the village, so there are still secrets to be unearthed for the birth of the female resentful spirit and the destruction of the mill?"

He pondered for a long time, and his mind cleared a little, looking at the direction of the landslide, and the distorted angle of the storage room, and finally stood up and looked around at the staggered mill.

Finally, Adam came to the well in the middle to draw water.

Ding dong!

The small boulder shattered the reflection, but the ripples did not bounce off the stone wall.

"This is the place."

Poof!

This is Adam, and he jumped into the well.

Adam surfaced, wiped his face, and sure enough, there was a hole in the sky, and he swam to the shore in the dark, polished the secret box, and the whole place became clear.

"Hehe, you can always believe in alchemy."

It was a cenote, and instead of a water source underneath, there was an underground river, and the builders of the well had just built a circle around the hole.

"The earth did not fall by chance, and the grain was not stolen by evil spirits, right......

Adam drew the second sword from his waist and walked down the low alleyway that had been dug out, knowing what he was going to encounter, and he estimated that the other party was in a terrible situation.

He walked around the place for a long time, and finally came to a stop in an open, well-ventilated cavern.

There is a neatly stacked wall of grain - burlap bags filled with wheat, in good condition, and air-dried meat hung from the protrusions of the wall, which is the best place for air circulation.

If you want to say the best, it is still more than 20 oak barrels, patted and sturdy, with a solid hum, and there is good wine inside!

Adam burst out laughing, and when he opened the sack-enclosed "fortress", a "man" fell to the ground, with a strong upper body and a hairy head.

This is a kind of monster in Kundia, called Tutao.

Their lower bodies drag behind them like silk, and their upper bodies resemble those of humans, with strong claws that can carry food and crawl faster than calves.

These creatures burrowed, liked to burrow and gather food, but ate very little, and sailors who spent the winter often went to the mountains in search of their savings.

It is precisely because they dug tunnels to steal food from the warehouse, and "cleverly" dug earth to seal the tunnels, and the resulting subsidence completely concealed their crimes.

Although it did not affect the "granary", it destroyed the mill on the ground, leading to the tragedy of the armor maker's family.

Spirits and monsters are weird things, but they don't coexist, look at these weak and dying Tutao, all squeezed dry by the monsters above.

"Tsk, fate!"

Adam took the [Hangena Sword] and Tutao obtained by touching the corpse and said "good night" one by one, and threw them into the water and floated down the waterway, instead of leaving them here to mold.

The soldiers couldn't handle these things, and what they knew about "silver sword wounded monsters, steel sword kills" was actually wrong - only a small number of wraiths had such weaknesses, and they still needed to find the key points.

Some steel swords are made of rare materials that are superior to these kinds of weird things.

After all, most monsters are also flesh and blood.

And himself, along the direction of the dark stroke, slowly left here, and the quiet environment made Adam's heart very relaxed, and the exclamation mark of the mill had disappeared.

Looking back on the gains of this trip, in addition to the equipment, his qualifications have also changed [Body 2.3 Intelligence 2.6], and the [One-handed Weapon] [Physical Fitness] and [Scouting] in the detailed branch have also been slightly improved.

In the face of obstacles, he did not hesitate too much, but thought independently and decisively trusted his own judgment.

He liked himself like this, but such a small "expansion" was suppressed by that [quality: D], which also made him wonder what a guy like the captain of the guard would be like?

It's a pity that the other party is not a simple person like Jane, he doesn't communicate much, and he can't see the details.

It didn't take long for Adam to come out of a narrow natural cave somewhere, and it took a long time for him to get used to the sunlight before he climbed to a high place and looked at Matthew Village from afar.

He cut down the bushes, hid the place, recruited the homeless, and rebuilt the stronghold, this is the grain!

With the spirits gone, the villagers will surely rebuild the mill, but the landslide has blocked every cave, and unless a desperate villager jumps into the well, it's a secret.

Adam pulled out the Lord's Ring from the hidden spot around his waist.

"Soon, I will have the courage to wear this ring on my hand."

Now, I still have to reply to the commission and stabilize the people of Lord Arnold, the big forces closest to the stronghold, can only increase their favor for now.

"Jane is waiting for me at Old Jamie's tavern, I can try the blueprints on my body, and finally a horse is on the way......"

Matthew Village, near.
