"Well, it seems to be for the best. Con agreed.

Since Grano admitted that he was the owner of the slate, there was no problem lending it out for a short while.

"Thank you very much. ”

Grano took the slate, walked over to a boulder, and sat down.

He began to examine the slate, his eyes sharp.

Conou looked away from Granor and saw Eder.

Ed busily picked up the gold coins and put them in the pouch that hung from the belt. However, there is a lot of gold there, so it seems that it will take him some time to collect all the gold.

Eventually, Conou decided to help.

Conor and Edel pick up each gold coin like grain.

It took a long time for the two of them.

"There are 617 gold. ”

Ed handed him a gold bag full of gold edges.

"St. ”

Con Ou took the heavy pouch and smiled.

"I picked up 383, so the total is 1000 gold. ”

The stone golem left a fortune of 1,000 gold coins.

"Haha, if I can only get 1000 gold from you every day...... I guess that's impossible. ”

Con looked at the broken rock regretfully and patted it gently.

The Stone Golem respawns, but does not reward another 1000 gold.

After quite some time, the boss has accumulated 1,000 gold coins in its core.

If the boss monster is not killed, or if the player does not clear the dungeon, then the treasure will naturally accumulate.

Well, I can't complain. After all, that's how I make a living. ”

Conor profits from this system, he will find hidden dungeons, kill their bosses, and hope for good luck. In other words, he is a dungeon hunter.

"Mr. Conou," Ed called.

"Really?"

"Hehe, about my salary......"

Ed folded his hands and smiled modestly. It's clear what he wants. Conou had no intention of forcing him.

"Well done. ”

Conou happened to hand him 3 gold.

"You made a lot of money today. Can you give me a little more?"

"Don't. ”

"Why!?"

"What the hell did you do? I did everything. ”

"At least Mr. Grano gave me some information about the boss monster. He told me it was a stone, but what did you do?

"You didn't even give me a chance!"

Ed has a bone to pluck with him.

''That's not to say I didn't try to do anything. You just decide to do everything yourself.

"There's a big difference between wanting to work and actually working, so if you want to get a bonus, do something worthwhile!"

Cono is determined

"It has to be made that he develops good habits. ”

It's like a mother who doesn't meet her child's request to buy a toy.

Eder's 3 gold salary is just his base salary.

So if he wants the bonus, then he has to do something worthwhile!

Conou clearly conveyed this idea to Eder.

"You're really too much. ”

Ed was furious.

On Eder's back, Conou said, "If you steal any money or junk items, you're going to pay hell." Don't forget the last time I saw you. ”

"Oops. ”

Con'ou is an unscrupulous CEO, and his subordinate Eder is once again a poor fellow.

Conou's party drove their camels out of the Tulu Gorge.

They were greeted by endless sand dunes. Camels make their way through the desert while yawning.

The sand flew into the air, and a burrowing Sandurion raised his head.

Sandurion, which is basically an ear the size of a human forearm.

But this Sandurion is a little different from the others.

First, it keeps an eye on them from behind, and secondly, its smooth eyes give off a blue hue.

However, as Conou's party passed through the dunes, the blue in his eyes vanished.

At that moment, a huge tent was set up far from the Hapuda Oasis.

There were twenty people in the tent dressed in similar clothes, with Mordone as the center.

His subordinates approached him.

The man said, "Lord Moderna." They have already left the Tulu Gorge. ”

"Where are they going?" asked Morton.

"Based on the direction they are heading, it seems that they are returning to the Hapdala Oasis. ”

"Hmm. Now, go ahead and spy on them with Sandurion. ”

"Understood. ”

After the bearded man left, Moderna's right-hand man walked over. He himself has a thick beard.

"Do you think they have found a hidden oasis, and if so, then we should immediately mobilize the Red Sands troops..."

"No," Mordone interrupted.

"Considering how much time Grano has spent in Tulu Canyon, this seems unlikely. It is impossible for them to find and explore the hidden oasis in a short period of time. So please let the red sand unit stand by for the time being. ”

The Red Sands are a mercenary group operating in the desert north of the Bariton Desert.

They have only 100 members, but they are experienced in fighting in the desert.

"I understand. ”

His right-hand man bowed his head.

"There's no need to rush. Twenty of our insect mages have placed Shadurios throughout the desert, so there is no way for Granor to escape our control. ”

Insect mages can summon or raise insects and use them in battle.

Modney himself was an insect mage, and there were more than twenty insect mages under his command.

"But once a hidden oasis is discovered, what if they use a backhaul roll or teleportation spell?" asked his right hand.

"That's why Granno's party doesn't know that we're targeting them. ”

With his abilities as an insect mage, Morduni casts invisible nets over the Barryton Desert.

However, if Granno becomes the master of his own trap, then it is possible for Granor to escape without looking for a hidden oasis.

If not, they can find the hidden oasis and retreat immediately.

As a result, Moderna secretly spies on Granno's team while waiting for an opportunity to strike.

"I'll remember that. ”

His right-hand man bowed his head.

"Good. Ensure proper supervision of boys. You can go. ”

The tune waved him and motioned for him to leave.

"Yes sir. ”

After his subordinates left, Morduni began to pet a creature beside him.

It is a spider the size of a man.

The spider is similar to the tarantula, but it is red.

Seeming to like it, the red spider stroked his body on his hand.

"A good hunter knows how to wait for the prey to be trapped. It's like a spider. ”

Tone smiled wickedly.

However!

Spiders may be hunters, but they are nothing more than prey.

Conou and Eder resting at their base in the Hapudala Oasis.

Then, Granno enters the yurt.

He suddenly cast a spell that obscured Conou's team in the blue screen.

"What are you doing?" asked Conou.

Granno said: "I got some information about Modone from the Magic Tower. This spell will stop the sound from escaping. ”

The target of the key is them, so it is possible that they have been eavesdropped. Therefore, Grano took appropriate measures just in case.

Granno sat down and revealed the information he had obtained from the Magic Tower.

"Morduni is a mercenary mage in the Eastern Desert. However, a few years ago, he was a member of the kingdom of Arabaas. ”

The Kingdom of Arabia is located in the eastern part of the Alt continent.

When the Altan Empire collapsed due to the People's Revolution, the eastern half of the Arth continent restored the monarchical system of rule, creating three separate kingdoms.

The Kingdom of Arabia is one of these three kingdoms.

"So you're saying that the tone is supported by the kingdom of the Arabs," said Conou. ”

"Yes. But he didn't get a lot of support," Grano replied.

"Why is that?" asked Conou.

"The Bariton Desert is a neutral area. If the kingdom of Arabas sends a large number of troops here, then the kingdom of Dash or the kingdom of White Rock will not sit idly by. ”

Like the Kingdom of Arras, the Kingdom of Draa and the Kingdom of White Rock are also located in the east.

After the People's Revolution, there were no major conflicts in these kingdoms.

However, if one of the three kingdoms acts on its own terms or tries to increase its power, the other two kingdoms will not sit idly by.

"So, how many subordinates did Modena take from the Arabs?" asked Conou.

"Less than 150," Grano replied.

"Is that information trustworthy?" asked Conou.

It is important to know an enemy, but it is even more important to make this information correct.

Misinformation can lead to disaster.

"You can't be self-sufficient in the desert. That's why people buy or steal goods. However, they have not stolen any goods yet. If there were, the rumors would have spread by now. This means that they have been when I asked a businessman I know and he told me that there was a group of people who had recently bought a lot of food and water. Granno said.

"It has to be Moduuni's organization," Conou said.

"Probably because the businessman told me they hadn't seen them before. Considering that the merchants did not know them, only Moderna and his subordinates could buy all these goods. ”

"So, you're saying they only bought 150 people?"

Grano nodded.

"Hmm. What kind of people are they......"

They know how many people there are. However, they cannot begin to assume their own strength or level.

"The desert is smaller than you think, so we'll find the information we need as quickly as possible," Grano said. ”

He is a native of the Bariton Desert. As a result, he has a fairly effective information network.

Granno's information network will certainly absorb more details about the tonal group.

"I see. That... Shall we talk about this oasis now?"

It is said that this hidden oasis holds a lot of treasures.

Where the hell is it?

Once upon a time, there was a man who sought the truth.

He was a nomad who spent his life seeking the truth.

Truth-seekers were left in the middle of the Bariton Desert.

He had no camels, supplies, or anything to do. Unfortunately for him, he also had no water.

The seeker of the truth traveled recklessly through the desert.

But the heavens did not forsake him.

There was an oasis in front of him, and he rushed to it.

But no matter how much he runs, the Oasis won't be close.

It became difficult tired nomadic to run too. Still, he didn't give up and kept going.

Eventually, the seeker of truth arrives at the oasis, or so he thinks.

Once he reached the oasis, it was gone. The oasis is nothing more than a building of mirage.

The seekers of truth succumbed.

He no longer had the strength to walk and prepare for the worst.

"I won't be able to...... ...... finally find the truth?" he lamented as he gazed at the sky.

And then...

He heard the sound of the sky.

"Don't give up. Go further and you'll find the truth you want. ”

Filled with hope, the seekers of truth continued their trek through the desert.

He began to see the oasis again and walked towards it step by step.

The seekers of truth have finally come to the Oasis. Luckily, this time it's not the Haishi Fury Building.

He rushed to the oasis and took a sip of clear water.

Afterwards...

"Truth-seekers have left these words: 'In the building of Haishi Fury there is truth,'" Grano said. ”

Then he added: "What I have told you so far is part of the legend about the oasis of truth. ”

"Hmm. It doesn't say anything about treasures or hidden oases. ”

Conou tilted his head. Grano's story was very different from what he expected.

"That's because there's a detailed detail in this sequel to this story," Grano said. ”

"Come on, move on. Edel pestered.

Grano nodded and continued his story.

"There was once an explorer named Melanke......"

The explorer Melanke (melancholy) has heard stories of truth-seeking and an oasis of truth.

Once he hears the story, he comes up with a hypothesis.

The oasis discovered by seekers of truth is not well known. Instead, it's a hidden oasis that no one knows about.

In addition, there is water where the truth can be preached.

"There is an oasis of truth. I will find it and get the truth. ”

After that, Melanke began to search for an oasis of truth.

But soon after, he disappeared.

However!

Shortly after his disappearance, his body was encountered by a group of merchants traveling through the Bariton Desert.

They found gold sculptures and priceless jewels on his body.

And, this is written on the last page of his exploration notebook.

"It says, 'I've found the hidden oasis, but I can't find the truth anywhere. On the contrary, it is full of treasures. After that, rumors spread that the hidden oasis was full of treasures. "Done.

"I really enjoyed the story," Ed said.

"Ultimately, it says, there is a hidden oasis treasure".

Conou smiled, pleased with the prospect of the treasure.

"But how do we find that hidden oasis?" Ed asked.

In Granno's story, he really can't find any specific clues.

"Mr. Granno, when we first met, you said that you had information about the hidden oasis. I think it's time to share it," Conou said.

Their eyes touched, and Granno nodded, indicating that he would begin to explain.

"Hidden oases may be under the desert or underground," Granor said. ”

"You mean the oasis is underground?"

Conor didn't understand

First of all, what is an oasis?

An oasis is a hollow space filled with water in the desert and surrounded by vegetation. However, Granno claims that it is underground.

"Yes. Hidden oases do not exist above the ground. So it either doesn't exist at all, can't be seen through some mysterious power, or exists in the air or underground. Personally, I believe it exists underground. ”

Grano sounded absolutely confident.

"Why do you think so?" asked Conou.

"I came across this by accident. ”

Granno opens his subspace and retrieves something.

It's a ring.

The ring is adorned with an eye-shaped ornament and has a question mark in the center of the eye.

"What is this?" asked Conou.

Granno replied, "It's the ring that represents a secret society called the truth." ”

"Can I take a look?"

"Forward. ”

Conor took off the ring and evaluated it.

[Truth Signet Ring]

A ring that verifies the identity (truth) of a member of a secret society.

Hardly understand the order of truth.

In order to be a member of the order of truth, some kind of ritual must be performed. The only information left is the name of the ceremony "Taruman Balk".

"Taruman Balk?"

What language is this?

Ed, who has a deep knowledge of the ancient language, said, "In ancient terms, Taruman Balk (Taruman Balk) is the final journey. ”

"Definitely. The final journey," Grano said.

Conou examined the ring and said, "An oasis of truth and an order of truth...... and the final journey to participate in the ceremony......"

It feels like pieces of a puzzle come together.

"Are truth-seekers part of the order of truth?" Conou asked.

"I believe it. In addition, the legend of the Oasis of Truth details the final journey of the seeker of truth. ”

Grano sounds absolutely sure.

"What kind of ritual is the final journey?" Ed asked.

"I don't know the specifics, but it could be a ritual that requires overcoming danger to get the truth. ”

"It's like surviving the desert...... Nothing on you?" asked Conou.

It is not by chance that truth-seekers are left behind. Instead, members of the Truth Organization deliberately left him there so that he could attend the ceremony.

"Yes," said Grano. However, it may be located in a more specific location than the desert. ”

"Where's that?"

"There is a place in the desert from which there is no return, and this is a quicksand that means death to anyone who comes across!

Quicksand.

If someone gets caught in quicksand, they sink into the ground and die. This does indicate that there is death in the desert.

"So we have to enter quicksand," Conou said.

"Yes," said Grano. If we choose the wrong location, then ...... What awaits us is death. ”

That's why Granno, despite this lead, couldn't find a hidden oasis.

He had no way of figuring out which quicksand pit was correct.

"Anyway, are you still looking?"

"Of course. And we're not going to die from quicksand. ”

After all, what is Kang'ou capable of!

Super intuitive!

If he discovers the quicksand pit that hides the oasis, then his super-instincts will undoubtedly come alive.

"As long as I find the right place, all the treasures will be mine!"

Cono smiled.

"Huh. ”

The desert stretches for miles.

Kang'ou's team was sitting on a camel in the middle of this endless sea of sand.

"Here," Grano said.

Grano pointed downhill.

Conou carefully examined the sand bed. The sand must have been sucked into one place. There was no doubt about it;

"What's wrong? Is your hyper-intuitive skill activated?" asked Granno.

Con Ou shook his head.

His ultra-instincts were silent.

"Is that hyper-intuitive or even unreal?"

Ed stared at him suspiciously.

"Don't you believe me?"

Con frowned.

He tells Granor and Eder that he has a special skill called "Super Intuition".

Conou explained that this technique would inform him of any hidden objects or locations, if they existed.

"If I just tell them that I have a keen eye, then they won't believe me. ”

He didn't find the right time to reveal his hyper-intuition, and he had no reason to reveal it.

But now it's time to tell Grano and Ed. Plus, by telling them it's a skill, they can take it more easily.

"I trust you, but ......" Eder lagged behind.

Conou said, "I'll tell you. I was able to choose the right rock for the quiz because of my ultra-intuition. ”

"You tell us that you are calculated by weight. Edel pressed.

"Well, I thought it was going to make me sound smarter," Conou said, looking shameless.

"Anyway, I'm sure you'll have this hyper-intuitive skill or you won't have it once you've found the right position," Ed said, as if he's doing him a favor.

"I'm serious. I remember when I found a cave hidden by the wind......"

Conou even withdrew from past events to convince him.
