Yi Qiu chatted with the two guards at the guard tower for a while, and then walked in along the entrance of the Western Valley.

Yi Qiu turned around and looked, and the light of the watchtower had disappeared beneath the towering cliffs of the valley.

According to the elder sentinel, in the wilderness outside, there are a large number of beasts with berserk blood.

They are more ferocious than normal beasts, and they are extremely aggressive.

Yi Qiu thought about it, he suspected that the ones who were following it before were probably monsters like Raging Rats.

No one knows how many berserk beasts exist in the vast wilderness.

According to the kingdom's scholars, if all of these berserk beasts flood into the kingdom.

Then for the kingdom, it is undoubtedly an epic disaster that is enough to overturn.

The rulers of the kingdom at that time, after listening to the advice of scholars, consulted with many churches, and eventually built a series of guard towers on the fringes of the kingdom at great expense.

Watchtowers are equipped with a specific spell that can drive out the entry of wild beasts.

And each watchtower has at least two guards to guard the watchtower, responsible for the daily operation and maintenance of the watchtower.

But now, however, the rampaging beast catastrophe predicted by scholars has not happened.

This also caused some complaints within the kingdom about the decision of the ruler of the time, because the construction of the watchtower cost a lot of money, which led to a stalemate due to financial problems in the later wars with the enemy.

The old Sentinel seemed worried, having guarded the tower for almost twenty years.

If the ruler of the current kingdom decides to abolish or reduce the number of watchtowers, he will undoubtedly be in a very bad situation.

Yi Qiu was very suspicious that there was some kind of large branch line in that area, and the expression of the older sentry on the two guards of the watchtower "I have a story, do you have any wine" also increased Yi Qiu's suspicions.

However, based on his charm, after chatting for a while, Yi Qiu didn't get any relevant mission hints.

It may be that the Holy Warrior will trigger the relevant side quests, but for Yi Qiu, it is obviously not a very reliable thing.

However, Yi Qiu really doesn't have much interest in doing a branch, unless that branch can provide enough rewards to make Yi Qiu's heart move.

Because generally speaking, the rewards of quests are not as good as those dropped by bosses of the same level - after all, there is no middleman to make the difference between boss drops......

Touching his bald head, Yi Qiu opened the map and looked at it.

At this time, the night was already very dark, because the phone could not be turned on due to the subtle changes in some substances, Yi Qiu could only vaguely calculate it through the countdown of the temporary team dungeon.

It should have been almost 2 to 3 o'clock in the morning, Yi Qiu looked up at the sky, and the stars in the sky were dim except for a full moon.

Fortunately, at this time, the full moon had gotten rid of the entanglement of dark clouds, and Yi Qiu's vision became a little clearer.

It may be that the previous flight stimulated Yi Qiu's nerves, or maybe it was the long-term meditation practice that improved Yi Qiu's energy, but for some reason, Yi Qiu didn't feel too tired now.

Yi Qiu was going to go to the location of the parchment scroll left by the mercenary that he had obtained from the goblin leader's treasure chest, and it happened to be not very far from where Yi Qiu was now.

In the cold night breeze of the early morning, Yi Qiu moved quickly.

…………

…………

After disturbing the nightlife of the three goblins, and then being chased by the angry goblins for some distance, Yi Qiu found the location recorded on the parchment scroll.

There was a dead tree here, and the torso part of it had been cut down, probably by a passing mercenary who had taken some to light a bonfire.

In the valley, there are also some of these dead trees.

It's not common, but it's not rare.

Perhaps it is due to the long-term exposure to the sun and rain, or perhaps it is due to the material of the tree itself, which can easily burn, but produces a very pungent smoke.

Most of the time, if there is no dead grass nearby, the mercenaries will take some to fuel it.

Yi Qiu searched the vicinity, but there were no unusual clues.

There were no ferocious monsters as Yi Qiu expected, or the terrain full of murderous machines, and there was nothing empty......

It doesn't look like it's any different from the rest of the valley, it's pretty ordinary.

After thinking about it, Yi Qiu took out the parchment scroll and looked at it, and then compared it with the map.

There should be no problem with the address, Yi Qiu didn't look for the wrong place.

Looking around, Yi Qiu finally focused his gaze on the dead tree, the only thing nearby that was slightly different.

Relying on his intuition, Yi Qiu judged that there was something wrong with the tree.

didn't look to see if there was any hidden information on the dead tree, Yi Qiu decided to smash the dead tree directly.

Anyway, it's just an unexpected gain, it's best to have a harvest, forget it if there is no gain, Yi Qiu doesn't plan to pay more energy for this.

Yi Qiu pulled Shi Er out of his waist, and then transformed it into a heavy stick, which was a stick against the remnants of the tree!

"Bump!"

In the midst of the flying wood, an iron box that he didn't know how to put in appeared in Yi Qiu's field of vision.

There was originally a lock on the iron box, but now it was rusty, and Yi Qiu tore the lock off without much effort.

Then, Yi Qiu retreated a little farther away, ready to push away the iron box with Shi Er.

Although he didn't think it was likely that a mercenary would cast any magic traps on the chest, after all, there were only 2 books in the druid hut that had been spelled traps.

But in order to prevent the boat from capsizing in the gutter, Yi Qiu felt that it was better to be on the safe side.

"Click!"

Just after Yi Qiu pushed open the iron box with Shi Er, with a burst of dazzling silver light.

Suddenly, there was a slight triggering sound of a machine spring in the iron box, and then a crossbow bolt shot out in the silver light hidden in the fierce sound of the wind!

"Bang!"

Because Yi Qiu retreated, the crossbow bolt flew some distance and landed on the mountain wall behind Yi Qiu.

Then after a dull penetrating sound, most of the crossbow arrows did not enter the mountain wall!

Yi Qiu touched his bald head, and used Shi Er to tinker in the box again, but there was no other movement.

In the faint moonlight, the opened iron box emitted a dazzling silver light.

Yi Qiu took a closer look, and this iron box was almost full of Kingdom Coins!

Because of the protection of the iron box, these Kingdom coins look very new.

In the middle of the iron box, there is a modified crossbow, and it seems that the crossbow arrow was fired from this crossbow.

Because there were too many of them, Yi Qiu did not count the kingdom coins for the time being.

He temporarily put the Kingdom Coins into the item backpack, and suddenly the inside of the iron box looked empty.

Yi Qiu tried to pull the iron box out of the dead tree, but did not pull it, it seemed that the iron box was firmly fixed inside with some special process.

However, although Yi Qiu couldn't observe the size of the iron box too intuitively, from the current point of view, Yi Qiu felt that the space he saw was smaller than the specific size of the iron box, which meant that this iron box should have a mezzanine.

However, after Yi Qiu knocked on all the areas, there was no empty echo.

Obviously, Yi Qiu's clumsy methods and the experience gained from some film and television works alone are not enough for Yi Qiu to discover the hidden mezzanine.

After thinking about it, Yi Qiu decided to use Shi Er to smash it directly.

According to Yi Qiu's thoughts, if it is a precious magic item, then it will not necessarily be broken under the smash of Shi Er.

If not, then obviously it is useless for Yi Qiu.

So Yi Qiu lifted up and smashed it hard towards the iron box!
