Chapter 401: The Return

More than a week later, the investigation team, led by Tavlear and Rosen, officially returned to Snow Castle with the results of their investigation.

This mission is not easy to say, but it is not easy, and no one can be sure of the dangers involved. Because his son Rosen was in the team, for the sake of insurance, Warrent also arranged for a platinum-level master to secretly protect him.

When receiving the investigation team, Warrent, with a few deputies, invited them to a high-level conference room in a very serious manner, obviously attaching great importance to the results of the investigation.

After all, it's a big deal about the safety of the snow castle!

Faced with such treatment, more than a dozen snow castle elites, including Tavlear, were a little flattered.

Because this mission was actually just a thrill, except for the encounter with the snow goblin, they didn't encounter any other dangers along the way.

If I have to say that there is any difficulty, the cold weather can barely count as a ......

And the information they brought back also surprised Warrent.

Except for the snow goblins, the entire trade route, as well as the no-man's land at the junction of the three countries, did not encounter any other threatening monsters. Judging from the nearby environment, there are only some monsters that are not very threatening, and occasionally leave some traces of activity.

In other words, this trade route is basically safe.

As for the snow elves, after they stopped chasing them, they disappeared without a trace, seemingly completely disappearing into the mountains.

In the report, Barot and Mia were also mentioned, as well as the help of Su Wen Ellie, and of course, Greenfield, the scout, also accounted for a lot of ink in each team member's report.

Of course, Warrent will not doubt the authenticity of the report, after all, in this team, the captain is his own important young talent, the vice captain is his own son, and among the team members, there are also henchmen sent by himself.

In the end, Warrent encouraged and praised the team members and gave them a vacation.

After the members of the Pattern Investigations team left, Warrent thought a little and asked Shevin to convey the news that the trade was back to normal. Rosen's first big mission ended hastily.

This Su Wen ...... I helped myself again and saved my son once......

After witnessing the half-activated bone fragment that was lost from his hand suddenly reactivated, Rosen's whole body was not well, and Tavlear felt the same way after asking about the situation.

After all, it was not the surging magic that radiated on that road, but the stacks of hundred-dollar bills......

If such a treasure is put up for auction, there is almost no upper limit to the price.

After being rescued that day, they hurriedly took a look at Su Wen, and then they separated from the investigation team, although they had doubts, but everyone did not dare to ask.

Only Rosen, while his sister was alone, quietly asked.

Got "Ah, we're just here for an outing, just take a turn and go back, brother, you don't have to care." Such an answer.

As they said, at dawn that day, Su Wen and his party were separated from them. And Su Wen and his entourage, just like they made an appointment yesterday, climbed Maleno Peak, and the main purpose was to browse the scenery.

Although halfway through the climb, Ellie found that traces of monster activities had reappeared in the no-man's land, and before the investigation team arrived, she took Su Wen to clean up these monsters that could threaten the investigation team.

These monsters that came out during the day were actually the same type of mature bodies as the worm-shaped monsters they found in the hole! Judging from the size, they should have been adults hatched from the chrysalis, and almost all of them had a qualitative improvement in both combat effectiveness and intelligence.

If this is the case, it is no wonder that they can capture those huge monsters, and by the way, the other monsters will flee to the mountains in fear.

So Su Wen also understood that this kind of insect demon is active during the day, and at night, it will lie dormant in a deep hole. Unlike the cave I found at the beginning, the cave where these insects and demons were active during the day were all newly dug out, and there were more monster remains in the cave, apparently the residue of their eating.

Su Wen's guess was probably that the phenomenon of monsters descending appeared in this no-man's land, and the monsters that came came awakened the insects and demons in the pit due to their frequent activities. When these insects awoke, they came from the ground to the surface to hunt, and began to breed in the original pits.

Last night, Su Wen and the others took their lair, and during the day today, they all killed them all.

After completing the follow-up work of cleaning up the traces and filling the holes, the two returned to the Maleno Peak with peace of mind. Therefore, the investigation team was able to return to the snow fort with the information of "basic security".

Incidentally, on the way back to the snow castle after the investigation of the investigation team, the magic shield made of bone fragments was still in effect. So Lawson, who was on the outside of the hood, couldn't touch the bone fragments inside, let alone pick them up and take them home.

This once again stimulated Rosen's already somewhat tired mind, and Tavlear was suddenly a little embarrassed. After all, after seeing the power of this bone fragment, Tavlear also reacted, and his two rescues were all helping, and they were also indirectly...... No, it should be direct, wasting such a powerful piece of treasure.

However, the scimitar brought by Greenfield left one for Rosen, which can be regarded as a consolation prize. Anyway, this is also a purple-level starting divine weapon, and the lightning that can be released by the scimitar also makes him remember it vividly.

"Hey, brother, are you back?"

While eating in the cafeteria, Rosen ran into his sister Balot.

"yes. Rosen's answer was a bit listless.

After such an exciting scene, Rosen just wanted to go back to his room and take a comfortable bath, and then put on the quilt and sleep.

“...... What about Mr. Su Wen and Ellie?" After thinking about it, Lawson asked again.

"I've been back to Xueton, it's been a few days. The answer given by Barot made Rosen's heart a little lost.

Originally...... It's all gone......

"By the way, when they left, Ellie invited us to go back to Shelton for a while, I plan to leave the day after tomorrow, do you want to go with us? You should be on vacation, right? I heard my father talk about this plan before......

"Yes!" Rosen's crisp reply surprised Ballot.

His brother doesn't seem to be such a simple person?

......

At this time, in the camp of the Snow Eagle Knights, in the activity room, Greenfield, who had returned from vacation, was gathered around a table of people, watching them play cards and brag.

His life seems to be back to normal.

"Greenfell, why did you come to play with a knife after you disappeared for a while?"

"I just got it, it feels okay. ”

"Then don't you use that sword from before? I bought it for fifty silver!"

"I'm out of sixty!"

"Seventy!"

The bidding soared all the way to two hundred, but Greenfell righteously refused. His colleagues were naturally surprised by this, why didn't Greenfield, who slammed the door, even do business?

"Does anyone buy five hundred?"

"you, I'm crazy about money!"

"Four hundred is fine! It's negotiable!"

", don't bother us playing cards. ”

Greenfell smiled and said no more.

Probably only he knew that the black sword, even if he was given a thousand silver or two thousand silver, was something that could not be sold.

There was a rush of footsteps, approaching the activity room, and then stopping at the door. A young officer pushed open the door and came to the table.

In the Snow Eagle Knights, although there is no order that gambling is not allowed, it is also a bad experience to have an unfamiliar person watching.

But when they saw the rank of the young officer's collar, their faces changed abruptly, and they immediately put down the cards in their hands, stood up in unison, and saluted and greeted.

"Scout Greenfell, are you here? come with me, Lord Duke, please. ”

Duke please!?

Amid the astonished and suspicious expressions of envy or schadenfreude in the eyes of his colleagues, Greenfell touched his head, showed a genuine smile that seemed to be a philistine, and followed the young officer out of the activity room.

It wasn't until the door to the activity room was closed that the pot exploded.

"Damn, Greenfield, when will you be able to get in touch with the Duke?"

What they didn't know was that half a year ago, Greenfell had also helped the Duke on a secret mission.

However, their hustle and bustle did not last a few seconds, and the door of the activity room was pushed open again.

With the experience of the previous time, the people who had just sat down immediately stood up again and saluted in unison again.

"Lieutenant Colonel Tavlear!"

"Greenfell Scout...... Are you there?"

What kind of wind is blowing today, and why are all these big people looking for him?

After receiving the news that Greenfell had been called by the Duke, Tavlear thanked him and left silently.

The trajectory of life has probably changed a little.
