Chapter 0451: Maz's Whereabouts (First Update)
"Where's the old lady?" Guan Heng asked, "Is she still in the hotel at this time?" โ
"No, Master Maz can't be idle." Luba shook his head slowly and said, "She often wanders around the desert near this city, saying that she is looking for something. โ
"That's right." Guan Heng asked with some curiosity, "What kind of mission did Master Maz post?" I heard it's some kind of desert specialty, right? โ
"It's a unique sand date palm tree that grows in the desert of our region."
Luba said: "This kind of sand date palm tree is very strange, the fruit is bitter, and contains highly poisonous, but after grinding into powder, combined with some other materials, it can strengthen the hardness of metal armor, so Master Maz issued a mission to find the whereabouts of the sand date palm tree." โ
"I see, the fruit of that sand date tree is indeed a good thing for the forge." After Guan Heng listened, he nodded slightly: "However, you and Master Maz must not have gained anything, right?" โ
"Elder Guan Heng guessed correctly, that kind of sand date palm tree was extinct in the nearby desert decades ago." Luba said with a wry smile: "I have lived in the local area for so many years, and I have never seen it, so it is extremely difficult to find it, but since we have taken the task, no matter how difficult it is, our Black Feather Crow must do our best to complete it, and this is a matter of credibility that must be adhered to." โ
"Alright, then I'll go find out the whereabouts of Master Maz now." Guan Heng then said: "Luba, is there a map of the nearby desert?" Get me one. โ
"Smack." Luba clapped his palms, and immediately a shopkeeper brought a parchment map, and Guan Heng took it and looked at it: "The drawing is quite detailed." Thanks. โ
"Oh, yes." Guan Heng remembered something, took out a bag of gold coins and stuffed it to Luba: "Recently, I am going to stay in Dilardo City. Don't bother you and your brothers, and use the money to invite them to a bar. โ
"Thank you, Elder Guan Heng." Luba smiled and took the money bag, and then told Guan Heng: "Master Maz usually goes to the desert area from the West City Gate, and she usually does not travel more than thirty kilometers, because the old lady is old, and the further you go into the desert, the greater the wind and sand will be. So she should be found soon. โ
Guan Heng thanked him, turned around and walked out of the hotel, and set off straight for the desert outside the West City Gate.

A moment later. In the desert area dozens of kilometers outside the city of Dilardo, several travelers on the road were accidentally surrounded by a group of dune wolf beasts.
Dune wolfmons, skinny wolf-type monsters, often move in groups. Attack travelers and weak animals. At this time, a middle-aged merchant waved the big stick in his hand and desperately drove away the dune wolf beast that pounced on him: "Damn beast, get away!" โ
"Woohoo! Click! A dune wolf beast pounced fiercely, opened its mouth and bit the big stick waved by the merchant, "Poo! The other two wolf beasts took advantage of the gap and swooped down, their fangs and claws calling at the merchant fiercely, making him cry out in pain.
The rest of the travelers saw this. They grabbed rocks and dead branches on the ground to help drive away the dune wolfbeasts, but these guys gathered more and more.
It was in a pinch. Suddenly, a figure came in stride, and with a wave of his hands, three or four fireballs flew in and landed in the sand dunes.
"Bang bang bang!" The shattered fireballs made the wolves and beasts scream, and they were immediately stunned by the sudden attack, and one by one they grabbed their tails and ran away in all directions.
"Hey, everyone's alright, right?" Of course, it was Guan Heng who came to the rescue, and he asked, "Is anyone hurt?" โ
"Only this merchant uncle was bitten by the dune wolf beast while protecting us." One of the young travelers said, "You see, his arm and his left leg are bleeding. โ
"Come on, drink this restorative." Guan Heng smiled and handed a vial to the middle-aged merchant: "I'm bandaging the wound, you'll be fine soon." โ
"Thank you, thank you for this benefactor." The middle-aged merchant hurriedly took the vial and drank it all, and then said, "Thanks to your timely arrival, otherwise we would have to enter the belly of the demonic beast." โ
"You're welcome, when someone is in danger, reaching out to help is what travelers should do." Guan Heng asked casually: "I'm looking for an old lady in her sixties and seventies, her name is Maz, and she often wanders around the desert around here, have any of you seen her?" โ
"Ah, Eun Gong is talking about Master Maz?"
One of the young travelers hurriedly said, "I have seen her, and though the old lady is a little eccentric, she is a good person, and often repairs the tools of the inhabitants of the neighborhood for free, and about five miles further on there is a small oasis with an adobe house, where Master Maz often rests. โ
"Thanks, that's the message I need." Guan Heng nodded slightly: "You all hurry up and go to Dilardo City, in case you encounter another demonic beast attack, it's not a joke." โ
"Yes, thank you for the reminder." The group of travelers said goodbye to Guan Heng and hurried to the city of Dilardo, and the two sides parted ways.
"A small oasis, huh?" Guan Heng looked at the yellow mist and wind and sand in the sky, and muttered to himself, "Master Maz, I am finally going to see you." โ
A few minutes later, in the small oasis, Guan Heng stood in front of this simple adobe house, looking at the collapsed half of the wall, Guan Heng sighed: "There is a comfortable hotel not to live in, and you have to go to a place where the wind and sand are raging to suffer, this old lady is really amazing." โ
"Master Maz, are you there?" Guan Heng shouted into the adobe house, "Someone has come to visit." At this time, the little red monkey in Guan Heng's arms suddenly poked out his head, and it had been napping until now when it was awakened by Guan Heng's shouting.
"Twitter?!" The little red monkey suddenly sniffed the air around him with his nose, and suddenly showed a strange look on his face.
Guan Heng shouted twice at this time, but no one in the adobe house said anything, Guan Heng was helpless, and muttered: "There is no way, I have to be a daredevil." โ
Who knew that Guan Heng had just walked into the adobe house, and a black shadow suddenly appeared in the room, and he pounced on Guan Heng's front door, and the little red monkey in Guan Heng's arms jumped up to meet him without thinking.
"Twitter!" The little red monkey and the black shadow fought, and both of them screamed, and suddenly rolled on the ground.
"Hey, hey, what's going on?" Guan Heng looked at it, and it turned out that it was a little monkey with black fur who was playing with the little red monkey, except that the color was different from the little red monkey, and the two looked exactly the same.
"Little Black Monkey?!" Guan Heng suddenly showed a strange smile: "Hehe, where did this strange little monkey come from, could it be the brother of the little red monkey?" โ
