What the wise man said, the implication is nothing more than that this trip is like looking for a needle in a haystack, if you are lucky, you can find it at once, if you are unlucky, I am afraid that you will really have to go through the entire desolate Gobi.

Some people may say that with your current status, it is not difficult to search the Gobi at all, you only need to gather tens of thousands of people, spend a few days, and talk about the Gobi, even if it is a desert several times larger, you can also go all over.

That's true, but I don't want to alarm too many people, especially the monarchs.

Although the city lord of Yorkhan City is essentially my relative, who knows if he will have a grudge in his heart after experiencing the last 'blackmail' incident, in short, before everything is clear, I can't let him know my whereabouts, it's best not to let him know, unless we can find a chance to make things clear, but this opportunity is not so easy to appear.

And I don't plan to let the orc king know the purpose of my trip, he got a lot of income from the tomb robbery a few days ago, and now he is in a state of excitement, I am afraid that if this tomb robbery is known to him, he will definitely send someone to interfere, there is only one reason - he wants to get more wealth.

If there were only gold, silver and jewels in Fred Alexander's real tomb, but if there was an artifact, would he honestly give it to the Elven Empress?

...... I think it's very unlikely.

Don't look at the fact that the orc king and his wife have a lot of respect for the fairy queen, it is only because the fairy queen is the elder of the two, and the second is that they don't want to cause conflicts between the two countries because of disrespect.

But once they have the artifact, their waists harden - it's a treasure that can shake the Fairy Queen!

They can use this as bait to lure the Elven Empress to help them with their errands, such as sending their most elite troops to help Dasai capture Ari or Yorkhan, and then ask for the help of Vicky Castle in a strategic alliance.

In this way, the relatively stable situation in the Zephyr Continent will be broken, and the Fearless Guild and the New Valorant Guild, which are not yet ready, will also be forced to be involved in the war.

This is completely different from the future scenario I envisioned.

Furthermore, if the Elven Empress were to be informed of my actions, she would have sent men over, and perhaps those who were sent would not be interested in the treasures, but they would certainly be interested in the coffin and body of Fred Alexander.

That would defeat the purpose of my trip.

In short, I'd rather work hard than cause trouble.

Sighing slightly, I asked the wise man, "May I ask the wise man, can you be sure that the Gobi map of Dasai City has been completely destroyed?" ”

The wise man nodded.

"In other words, if I want to know the exact location of the stone carvings, I can only move my focus to Ari City and Yorkham City, right?"

The wise man nodded again.

After a few seconds of silence, I said, "I see, thank you, Wise Man." ”

As he spoke, he slowly stood up, saluted the wise man, and said, "How much does it cost?" ”

"A bag of fine wine," said the wise man.

I paused, then smiled, untied a wine bag from my waist, placed it lightly on the table, and then carefully walked around the small clay figurines scattered all over the ground and left the spire hut.

Out of the cabin, I made a beeline for the magic airship.

On the way, I fell into a short period of thought.

Whether it's Ari City or York City, it's not easy to steal maps from the map libraries of these two countries.

With my current skills, I'm afraid I'll be discovered before I have time to enter the map library.

My boss Wren may be able to do it, but I'm not afraid of 10,000, just in case, if he makes any mistakes, is captured by the national forces, or is besieged to death by the national forces, then won't I lose a right-hand man!

No, stealing a map doesn't take a big deal like him.

Let Shan Yong steal?

Maybe he won't refuse this task, and with his current status, it won't be difficult to get into the map library, but if Carter Houghton asks about it afterwards, it will be difficult for him to find a suitable excuse to prevaricate, even if he can pass it for a while, Carter Houghton will be suspicious of him, then the chess piece I planted in Ari City will lose its practical use.

It seems that the trick of stealing is not going to work.

Then there is only one way to play the family card.

Confronting Simmons Locke may be dangerous, but it is by far the safest solution.

After all, he is Bai Yunying's uncle.

After all, I'm still his nephew and son-in-law.

For the sake of my niece's happiness, he probably won't take my life.

By luck, I boarded the magic airship.

The airship soon arrived at the capital base in York, Ham, and managed to attract a wave of attention.

It's not that this group of onlookers doesn't have much knowledge, but today is not the day when the magic airship takes off, looking at the entire Zephyr Continent, the only one who has the power to command the magic airship to take off and land at will is Master Dewey.

They wanted to get a glimpse of Master Dewey.

It is difficult for me to understand their thoughts on this, for it seems to me that Master Dewey is a very short, pale green-skinned little old man who has no value for observation.

If you have that time and energy, you might as well watch more performances of the beauty group and the beautiful boy group!

At least eye-catching.

After the airship landed, I assigned a steward with a bag of gold coins and a few precious treasures to invite Simmons Locke aboard the ship, and said that important people who were inconvenient to show up had come to see him.

The steward answered, quickly got off the airship, and went straight to the city lord's mansion.

About an hour later, he finally returned, accompanied by the Lord of York City himself.

Simmons Locke did not wear a crown dress on this trip, but just ordinary civilian clothes, and at first glance, he looked like a very generous businessman.

Behind him, there were four adventurers who looked like they were very skilled, and from their cautious and cold eyes, I was sure that these four guys were more than just adventurers, and perhaps had fought in war.

Only by killing the same kind on the battlefield can it be possible to accumulate such a sharp murderous aura.

Do you want to tease them?

Suddenly, I had a joking thought, if I released my killing intent now, how would they react?

But I quickly dismissed the idea.

In doing so, it is very likely that the steward who acts as a guide will be killed, and it will also make it more difficult to play the emotional card.

After a while, the door connecting the outer warehouse and the lounge opened, and at the courteous invitation of the steward, Simmons Locke walked in with a respectful face, but the moment he saw that it was me, his respectful expression froze, and his brow frowned.
