In the dark room, Alexander was holding the newspaper in his hand, which read "The Eternal Kingdom Dungeon Sherlock Lord's sabotage of the caravan in Winterfell".

The newspaper was not a monthly newspaper of Winterfell full of advertisements, but a monthly newspaper with the words "Northern Duchy Monthly" written on it.

"Lord Alexander, there is no news of Phoenix Phoenix until now."

The ooze monster stood in front of Alexander, holding the folder and talking to Alexander.

"Well, I see, look for a chance to cut off the tail as well."

Alexander looked at the newspaper and spoke, but the ooze monster looked embarrassed:

"But the guarding situation in Bankazia may be a little more difficult."

"Then it'll be done before they get to Bankazia." Alexander said without looking up.

"I see."

"By the way, I heard that Lord Sherlock has a powerful lich around him called Xueba, right?"

The ooze monster, who was about to leave, heard Alexander's question behind him, and immediately turned around and flipped through the folder in his hand with his wet tentacles:

"That's right, the genius lich, known as a once-in-a-millennium genius, is a top student who graduated from the Lich Academy, and his mentor is Professor Bacon, a famous undead educator."

"Professor Bacon? Do you still have the project that the Academy of the Dead cooperated with us? Alexander asked, sitting in his chair.

"Still."

"Let's get started, the sooner the better."

————————

The caravan attack on the Black Volcano ended successfully, but the caravan escort of 2,500 people was completely wiped out, and even the core of the dungeon they escorted was missing, and the accidental discovery of Phoenix broke the seal and disappeared.

The only thing to be thankful for is that the loss of Winterfell is not irreparable, and the townspeople of the entire distant town participated in the planning of this attack, and of course all the losses were compensated by them.

It's just that when the follow-up personnel sent by the merchant alliance came to count the property, they found that the property in the distant town was much less than on the books, and the most intuitive thing was the goods, furniture, and the magic stones on the card, most of which were missing, and it was suspected that they had made an emergency transfer, although they didn't understand why the furniture was transferred.

Even so, there is still real estate or other property that can be used to pay off debts, which is considered sufficient.

As for the black volcano, because Phoenix broke the seal, it didn't stop as soon as it erupted, and there was no suitable place to live at the foot of the entire black volcano.

Naturally, the Merchant Alliance also sent a commissioner over to check the information, and came to the conclusion:

"Because of Phoenix, the fire element here has become extremely disordered, and the volcanic activity is extremely active, and this eruption is likely to last for a long time, so it is recommended to upgrade the tourism level by one star!"

Although it is more suitable for travel, which is good news for the Merchant Alliance, the number of elemental creatures in the lava caverns has also increased, which is a headache.

But the Merchant Alliance is lucky because they have a very friendly and helpful neighbor - the Eternal Realm Dungeon!

"It's okay, it's our duty to keep the lava caverns in place and help the Merchant Alliance maintain order in the underworld."

Sherlock said with a sense of mission.

It was precisely because of Sherlock's strong request that he finally moved the city lord of Nicholas, and Nicholas immediately handed over the matter and reported it to the Merchant Alliance, which was grateful to Sherlock, and if someone was willing to accept this hot job, of course they were ten thousand willing!

Of course, in terms of remuneration, it is also symbolic to give a little, although Sherlock generously said that he did not need to, but they still decided to give a certain amount of materials every month as a reward, after all, materials are very important for the development of a dungeon.

Of course, the Merchant Alliance will not lose money, after all, as long as the Black Volcano can continue to exist as a tourist destination, they will make money.

At this point, for the Merchant Alliance, it will come to a successful end, and as for the follow-up compensation to the Northern Duchy, it will be a matter between them.

But for Sherlock, there's a lot more to investigate.

————————

"Isn't there any clue to who is behind the trick into unsealing Phoenix from the townspeople?"

Sherlock sits in a luxurious room, surrounded by bookshelves and rows of books, filled with the smell of depraved knowledge.

This made Sherlock feel a little uncomfortable.

In front of him was the ooze monster sitting in the boss's chair, who had provided information to Sherlock on several occasions and had a shady cram school business in Winterfell.

"The other party is very clean, and there are not as many ways to provide us with information as the many eyes and ears of Bankazia, but I guess it was Alexander that did it, and the targets of his recent actions seem to be pointing to the location of the seventy-two archdemons, although I don't know where the seventy-two unlucky ghosts are."

As soon as the ooze monster's words fell, the red-haired parrot, which had been standing on Sherlock's shoulder, made a threatening sound:

"Huh? What do you ooze monsters say? ”

"Huh?"

The ooze monster apparently didn't expect Sherlock's pet to talk like that, and visibly froze.

Sherlock stretched out a finger and tapped the parrot's head, then said with a smile:

"The newly bought pet seems to have learned a lot of strange things before, so don't care."

After being struck by Sherlock's fingers, the parrot was noticeably more well-behaved.

"Nothing, very spiritual pet." The ooze said casually, then continued:

"I'll keep an eye on the Northern Duchy."

"Thank you, this is the cost of intelligence this time." Sherlock threw out a golden stone, and the ooze monster quickly put the golden stone in his hand, and when the magic power entered it, the picture that appeared was a starry sky of mathematical formulas, numbers, and various symbols that surrounded the ooze monster, making him show an expression of great enjoyment.

"What a depraved bunch of creatures."

Sherlock put his hat back on, and with the parrot on his shoulder, he left the ooze monster's room.

Phoenix, who was standing on Sherlock's shoulder, asked after leaving the ooze monster's room:

"Is anyone looking for the Seventy-Two Great Demons? What is he going to do? Collecting cards like Rocky Lang Kaimi? ”

"Does Rocky Lang Chemie have this hobby?"

Sherlock asked curiously.

"Or else? In order to make up the number seventy-two, some very strange and weak guys, he will be absorbed into the organization, obviously we are all elites, but a guy like Pineapple, no matter how you look at it, doesn't look like an elite, right? It's like a fog floating everywhere all day long, and we will do some little tricks of mind control, which is really too valuable for us. The seventy-two great demons of Roki Langkaimi, how domineering they are, but there is such a guy. By the way, the black cat you have is also called Pineapple, and it feels like a waste like a pineapple. ”

Phoenix, who was standing on Sherlock's shoulder, said unceremoniously.

"He's the pineapple, the pineapple you said is scattered all over the place, the pineapple who does some mind control tricks."

Sherlock said to Phoenix.

"Aha, that's a funny joke, that's what the black dragon said."

Phoenix chuckled, as if he really felt like it, but he quickly saw Sherlock's serious expression, and then the smile faded away.

"Really? The guy ...... Pineapple? ”

"Yes."

"How is it possible, that voyeur now has a physical body? Or a black cat that's too stupid to do it? Impossible, I absolutely don't believe it, unless I turn into a parrot one day, hahaha...... Ha...... Ha ......"

Phoenix the parrot cried as she spoke.

The sobbing appearance of a parrot is really not beautiful, and even a little funny.

"Sherlock-sama, I really can't understand why you didn't let Phoenix remain in the form of a phoenix, but turned him into a parrot, you must know that a phoenix is very powerful."

As Phoenix sobbed, Blue whispered in Sherlock's ear.

"Huh? Do you want to turn the Eternal Kingdom Dungeon into a sea of fire? Besides, if someone else knows that Phoenix is here, it will cause a very serious problem, and the Demon Committee will definitely fire me with a high ticket. ”

Sherlock continued to ask Blue as he spoke:

"Is your dungeon core fusion over?"

"Of course, it's very delicious, and even a little indigestion, I can upgrade to a level 4 dungeon core at any time now, and it can even be expanded to the scale of 50,000 people!"

Blue was quick to say:

"But in that case, you and Miss Lilo may become the first high-ranking demon ever to die due to the drain of their magic."

"It's not enough to drain and die, there should be malnutrition."

Sherlock corrected and said:

"Looks like we're going to have to find a replacement for magic."

"How about a magic pool?"

Blue suggested.

"It's useless, there's no magic pool that can support the mana needs of so many people, unless it's the World Tree."

After Sherlock finished speaking, Blue quickly shouted:

"Huh? Isn't there a world tree in our garden? ”

"Are you talking about the one planted by Yucha? It's too small, and it's estimated that it will barely work for another hundred years. ”

Sherlock waved his hand.

"It's a shame."

"Wait a minute...... I suddenly had a bold idea. ”

Sherlock said suddenly.

"For your bold ideas, our country has a whole set of criminal laws."

"What are you talking about?"

"It's nothing, it's just a joke, but what do you think, Lord Sherlock?"

"How about ripening the World Tree?"
