Chapter 0302: Giant Mountain Range
"Well, it seems you've figured it out too, yes, they're right, but they need the Ritual Crown, but it promised to give us half of the gems first. ”
The ceremonial crown is a symbol of power in the underground kingdom, and the legend is that it was created by the first king of the scorpion, in fact, this crown is made by all the races of the underground world, but it is worn by the first king of the scorpion, so it will be misunderstood, and the second wearer is the leader of the python, until the python's lair was attacked by the scorpion, destroying the civilization of the python, and taking away the festival crown, and the decision of these actions is the current scorpion king Oguta, but the ceremonial crown of Oguta was lost because of an outing.
"No problem, I'll find him the Ritual Crown, and now you have to go back there and take the orc convoy to get those gems to Dawn Harbor. Downing pondered how to find the Ritual Crown.
According to Uncle Anduin, the scorpion encountered some attacks, fled in a hurry, and was lost in the process, and the lost location was the Giant Mountains in the Black Iron Continent, a place that even the orcs did not want to approach, and no one could leave alive from there, because the rock giants there were quite short-tempered.
Now it looks like we'll have to make a trip yourself, maybe the Celebrarian Crown can be found from the giants, and it's not a big deal to take a little risk to solve the problem.
Mastering the Scorpion Legion and the New Scarab Legion, Giroud gained the power to counterattack, of course, the Scarab Legion and the Scorpion Legion alone are not enough to fight those orcs, external assistance is indispensable, and now the most powerful force is Solskjaer's mercenaries.
"Solskjaer, you attack from the front, my scorpion legion and scarab legion will deal a fatal blow to those orcs in the rear, and when the time comes, you can have half of the resources on the Black Iron Continent, and your wealth is comparable to that of the king of the kingdom, how about it. Giroud consulted with his companion of the mysterious order.
"No, I want all of it, all the wealth of the Black Iron Continent. Solskjaer's thirst for wealth is more than anything else, and he thinks he can do it without the help of Olivier Giroud, a companion who looks down on the green-skinned mysterious organization.
Giroud's eyes rolled. "Deal, I can give you all the wealth of the Black Iron Continent, but the land there belongs to me, and I am the king there. ”
The two struck a team, but Giroud sneered as he left the house. "Solskjaer, you want all the riches of the Black Iron Continent? ”
Solskjaer also thought that this green-skinned despicable guy was not trustworthy, and that doing so would at least reduce the pressure on his mercenaries, and when the war was won, he would never keep his promise to let the mercenaries withdraw from the Black Iron Continent, but would maintain his own power existence, and he would establish his own dynasty there, he not only liked money, but also liked power, and money and power were never separated.
But now there are also some problems, the specific information of the young man from the Dongfang family, prudence and meanness have made him rich, maybe it is time to send someone to investigate the other party's more detailed information.
Someone walked in from the darkness, and Solskjaer handed him an envelope with a message about the young man. "Zarate, go to the East to investigate this man. ”
The cooperation in the gem business was not important, it was just a pretense, he decided to keep the business in the East as his own, as for the young man, it was just a stepping stone, and the specific information of the stumbling block could be better used.
A middle-aged man on the Gold Coast lowered the brim of his hat and watched the merchant ships heading to the East, especially those carrying precious stones and diamonds, which were the focus of the investigation.
Once a well-known private detective, Salat has served many clients, and now he is dedicated to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, he has investigated many people, including some celebrities and dignitaries, and even some of the honest people who are superficially praised have some stains, so Solskjaer's business can last for a long time.
After watching the merchant ships unload the jewels, he walked up, his white cheeks making him look like a lawyer or a nobleman, and handed a cigar to a sailor. "Man, where's your captain?"
The sailor was quite wary, as the owner had told them that they were not allowed to communicate with any stranger, or they would lose their work, so he refused the cigar, shook his head, and went to the deck.
The crew were a little unusual, and Salat jotted them all down in a notebook, then put them away and walked up to the deck alone.
When he stepped onto the deck, he was immediately stopped by a group of sailors who saw it, and the first mate came over and scolded: "Hurry up, this ship is forbidden for strangers to step in." ”
Salat took off his hat, revealing his long blond hair, quite elegant, and placed it on his chest to salute the first mate. "I'm a businessman and want to see your captain, maybe we can talk about some business. ”
"No, our shipowners are not interested. The first mate brutally pushed the elegant middle-aged man off the deck, and told the other sailors to forbid the elegant man to approach the ship.
Having to think of something else, he found some of the remaining Oriental ships and asked one of the crew members about the situation, and of course it was a matter of strategy. "I'm a businessman from the West, and if you want to do business in the East, you'll definitely agree to my request, right? He took out a few gold caesars and handed them to the crew.
"Of course, no problem. The crew member looked around vigilantly, and after making sure that no one had noticed, he put Kim Caesar away and whispered, "I'll arrange for you to get on board later, but you'll have to hide in the storage compartment for a month." ”
"A month?" Salat wondered. "But the ships on the East docked very quickly, almost once every three days. This was the result of his observations, and he had mastered the frequency of the Oriental merchant ships that carried the precious stones.
The young crew glanced at the ships they were looking at and whispered, "I don't know what's going on, the destination of those ships is not the east, and they usually change course after leaving the port." "There weren't many ships in the harbor that carried precious stones, only a few of them, and the rest were still heading east.
Not the East...... Salat finally got the very important information, turned and left directly, the crew shouted a few times, and muttered: "What a strange person, he was going to the East just now, and now he is leaving quietly." "But he's getting the benefits for nothing, and he doesn't have to take the risk, which is a good thing.
A three-day journey is not enough to reach the East, so where will the ships carrying the gems be and where will their destination be, Salat decides to follow.
Ochoa was found on the coast. "You'll have to prepare a ship for me, preferably larger, capable of carrying some ordinary storms and waves, and by the way, some trustworthy sailors. ”
Ochoa now frequents the Port of Gold Coast to receive gems, and of course he knows the guy Solskjaer trusts, and he has to fulfill his requests.
One of the largest fishing boats in the Gold Coast Harbour was requisitioned, and this fishing boat, which often goes out to the open to catch deep-sea fish, can carry some wind and waves without too many sailors.
As soon as the ships carrying the gems left, the fishing boat immediately followed, and at first the ships carrying the gems headed towards the eastern shipping lane, and when they were far enough away from the port, the ships ahead began to have some problems, they threw a large amount of vegetables and fruits into the sea, and then changed course.
Sarath stood on the fishing boat and observed the large ships in the distance. "Where is that direction?"
The sailors glanced at it and explained for their employer. "There is only one continent in that direction, and it is the Black Iron Continent. ”
These gems of the Oriental merchant ships did not come from the East, but from the Black Iron Continent, Salat was shocked in his heart, this was an accidental discovery, originally his mission was to investigate the details of the young man, and now he had to investigate the specific source of these gems.
"Follow them, follow them. He gave the order.
"No, there are orcs on the Black Iron Continent, and they are ferocious and brutal. The owner of the fishing vessel refused.
"I'll pay you tenfold. Zarate threw a bill of exchange to the other party. "Do as I say. ”
The giants are scarce in number, but they are powerful in combat, they refuse to be in the company of any race, guardian their own homeland, Oguta once wanted to unite these guys, but was eventually attacked by these giants, fled in a hurry, and lost the Ritual Crown.
When stepping into the Giant's Mountains, the beating of the heart accelerated, and the danger was everywhere, making it impossible to calm down, Downing observed this area full of rocks, all kinds of stones are the most scenic scenery here, of course, you must avoid those stones when you walk, because those stones may be the giants sleeping.
The place where Oguta lost his ceremonial crown was in the heart of the Giant's Mountains, which was dangerous, the heat and dryness made for the wonder, but it was also quite thirsty, and the stone giants didn't need to drink water.
When I arrived at the area near the lost festival crown, I found a relatively open place, and looked around, strange rocks were craggy, and it was not realistic to search a little bit in a wide area.
He had to find a way to use all the power he could, approaching a boulder, his heart beating violently, which meant that he had supernatural powers, Tang Ning picked up a stone and threw it at the standing boulder, making a crisp sound.
Soon after, the boulder suddenly began to shake, and Tang Ning quickly retreated, riding on the monitor lizard, and when the boulder fully stood up, it was a full height of ten people, and the ground trembled violently.
More boulders around them were awakened by the trembling ground, more giants began to appear, and the boulder mountains roared as if there had been an earthquake.
The giants spotted the little ones disturbing their sleep and began to give chase, and Downing turned and rode the monitor lizard, having previously observed a good place to hide from the giants.
