The blazing sun on his head kept turning the water in his body into sweat, and after just standing for a while, Levi was already covered in sweat. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Why is he standing here again? Well, it's with Noshi and Leif that the cause of the incident.

This time, Noshi returned to Yotun Town, not because she was free, but because she had a mission, and Leif was preparing to go on a mission with her companion.

And the combination of a knight and a mage is also a unique rule in the Northville Kingdom, and people who become regular knights will generally form a fixed team with the mages of the Mage Guild.

One is responsible for melee combat, and the other is responsible for spell support, which is a joint initiative issued by the Knights and the higher-ups of the Mage Guild.

In fact, it can be seen from here that although the Mage Guild is nominally an organization founded spontaneously by mages, the existence of the state is absolutely indispensable behind it.

Carrying a huge linen backpack on his back, Levi crossed his hands and tapped his fingers impatiently.

The task assigned to Noshi this time, according to her, was to go to the Esin mine in the nearby mountains, because the overseer of this mine had not returned to Cribi City to report for several days, so the Knights' House sent knights over to take a look, this is the work of low-level knights in non-war periods, unless these knights have a fixed position, otherwise many of the tasks issued by the Knights' House are these trivial things.

After all, the state provides a lot of resources for the Knights' House to train knights, not to train a batch of waste that does not contribute to the country.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Noshi and Leif also came to the entrance of the town, Noshi was still wearing the knight's light armor, carrying the knight's sword at his waist, and Leif was also holding his spell book.

"You're going to go along, too?" said Leif, of course, seeing Levi as well, dissatisfied.

"I'm going there for something, I won't bother you... Ahem, Noshi is going, I'm definitely going too" In response to Noxi's cold gaze, Livi's tongue suddenly knotted and changed.

"I don't know what's going on!" said Reif, shaking his hand, and without looking at Levi, he walked to the stable next to the entrance to town.

The disguised marriage contract relationship with Noshi is a headache for Levi, and Andrew actually just reprimanded Noshi for two sentences and let it go, and Ronnie is even more exaggerated, with a look of interest.

After a two-day break at home, in order to deal with Noshi's fanatical suitor Leif, under Noshi's orders, Levi became a companion on this mission semi-forcedly.

The night before departure, Noshi made it clear about Levi's job - that is, to shield the arrow, to stop Leif when he pestered Noshi.

Levi was helpless, but he was still looking forward to this trip to the mine, because he was going to the mine, which meant that there were a lot of mineral deposits underground.

If he could get a few pieces of "Owen" ore unique to the Kingdom of Northwell in the mine, then his current research would have made great progress, because Owen ore is the ore with the largest energy supply among the ores known to Levi, and a 5cm square Owen ore is enough to supply the output of 500 units of energy!

That's five hundred units of energy, and once it can be confirmed that the energy in the Owen ore can be extracted, many of the equipment that is still in the verification stage will be put into testing, which is why Levi has been waiting at the entrance to Jotun Town for a long time, and he can't wait to go to the Essien mine now.

However, Owen ore production is notoriously low, and Levi is mentally prepared.

"It's getting late, we'll be on our way now, and we'll be down in the evening at the bottom of Mount Essien," and by this time Leif had gone to the stable, and had bought a horse for all three of them out of his own pocket.

Of course, helping Levi buy horses was explained by Noxi, otherwise he wouldn't have paid attention to it.

Finally, I checked the items on my body, the waist bag was used for emergency parts and tools, the backpack contained dried meat and other food, the side hung with a repaired flint self-generated fire gun, the gunpowder bag and lead bullet were fully prepared, and suddenly, Levi's face became weird.

"Meow!" Xiao Ming suddenly came out of the jerky and called out to him.

"Xiao Ming..."Seeing that Levi was leaving tomorrow, Xiao Ming sneaked into his backpack last night and hid it, but it didn't eat the owner's food, so it stayed in the backpack for one night.

Since Xiao Ming came with him, and Noshirev came with him, there shouldn't be any danger, sighing, Levi put Xiao Ming into his open pocket.

Just as he was about to cover the backpack, out of the corner of his eye, he saw round metal objects placed under the backpack - alchemy grenades, which were made by Levi when he returned to the library a few days ago, and had not really been used, and Levi's definition of it was a powerful explosive.

The principle is to pull off the pull ring on the top of the grenade, drop the impact inside, ignite the fuse, and finally ignite the surrounding gunpowder that has been mixed by Levi to produce a small explosion.

Worried that he would accidentally pull and pull it badly, Levi still decided to put this group of five alchemy grenades in his waist bag, and it was easy to take when he really wanted to use it.

"You'd rather hurry up, waste your time!" cried Leif, who was already on his horse.

"Okay, okay, here we are," Levi put on his backpack and walked in front of the horse he had prepared for himself, fortunately he had learned to ride for a while in order to escape, otherwise he would have made a fool of himself now.

When Rivi also got on his horse, the three of them turned their horses' heads together and hurried in the direction of Mount Essin, recalling the geographical knowledge of the southern part of the kingdom of Northwell, and Levi looked in the direction of the southwest.

Mount Essien, which owns the Essien Mine, should be over there, and the town of Jodun is about 150 kilometers away from Mount Essien.

At the head was Noshi, a suit of armor that made a constant metallic crash on the horse's back, and the second was Lef, who was also a good rider as a mage, and Levi was at the end.

The galloping horses kicked up a lot of dust, and the three men on horseback and one cat went away.

...

At noon, under the scorching sun, a tall woman in a black robe pushed open the door of the Yotun Town Hotel.

Irica, who was helping her father clean the hotel, looked up, but with her height, she could only see the brown face under the robe and hat.

"Hello, do you want to stay at the hotel?" asked Irica with a broom.

"Well, please arrange a single room for me," the tall woman replied.

"Okay, please wait, Dad, there's a big sister staying at the hotel!" Irica turned and went to find her father.

"Okay, the guests of the hotel, right? Twenty copper coins a night, how long will you stay?" a middle-aged man with a smile on his face walked out, and Irica followed behind him.

"How long will you stay, that's not good..."Under the robe and hat was a face worthy of the word "beautiful", and her brown skin was dotted with a pair of amber eyes, and she smiled and said.

"I'm asking you something, have you ever had any strangers in town lately... Say it, this is yours" The woman shoved the golden coin in front of Erica's father.

Seeing the gold coin, Irica's father's face suddenly changed, he accepted the gold coin, hesitated for a moment and said, "Strangers who have come recently, yes, but more than a month ago..."

"Who is he and what is his name?" the woman's amber eyes moved imperceptibly.

"Levi, I heard him say his name is Levi Dorian."

"Levi, is it?" the brown-skinned woman smiled even more eeriely, but it was full of bewitching beauty.

"So you've been hiding here, but let me find you, Advisor Levi..."

After searching Kribby for a month and never finding the brown-skinned woman of Levi, Jotun was the fifth town she had visited these days, where she finally found her prey, Levi Dorian.

The man most highly regarded by His Majesty the Emperor in the entire empire.

...

The Esien mine is located on the halfway of Mount Eesin, and from a distance, Rivi found that Mount Esien is not particularly high, and the altitude is estimated to be around 1100~1200m.

After riding for most of the day, Rivi's back was sore and painful, but with all their might, they finally reached the bottom of Mount Essien before the sun went down.

"Noshi, shall we go to the mine now?" asked Leif as he leaned over to Noshi.

He was guided by Noshi's idea in everything, and as for Levi, he had no interest in taking care of it.

In fact, Leif looks handsome at a glance, not to mention his handsome face, his height is more than 180cm, the family is a hereditary viscount, and he also shows a gentlemanly demeanor towards Noxi, to be honest, Levi doesn't think he has any competition with him.

"I think it's better for us to go up early, and there should be a place for us to stay there, right?" But in order to fulfill his duty as a shield, Levi had no choice but to squeeze between Noshi and Leif and said.

"You!" Leif pointed at Levi, and suddenly became angry.

"He's right, let's go to the mine and find the overseer first," Seeing that Noshi had said this, Leif didn't say much, so the three of them tied their horses down the hill and walked halfway up the hill together.

The owner of the Essien Mine is Viscount Cambrera, another viscount of Kribi City, and the Cambrera family and the Fabrant family have never dealt with each other, so Leif didn't take this mission to heart.

The group walked and stopped, and soon came to the door of the Essien mine, but to Livi's surprise, the mine was dark at this time, not to mention the wind lanterns, not even candlelight.

At the entrance to the dead mine, there is a large amount of debris piled up on one side, most of them are iron picks and iron pries, and a small amount of food, but why is there no one here?

Directly opposite the entrance to the mine was a mine road leading to the bottom of the mountain, and Levi took a few steps forward, and soon, his breath was suffocated, and the bloody breath that was so strong that it could not be dissolved rushed into his nose at once.

The blood was too big, and Noshi stepped forward to block Rivi behind him, and Ronnie said that she should take care of Rivi, and she didn't forget.

No matter how you look at this situation now, there is an accident in the mine, and Levi, who has no combat effectiveness, may be in danger if he is not careful.

"Meow~" Just when everyone was vigilant about the changes around them, in Levi's pocket, Xiao Ming suddenly squeezed out.

"You brought your pet with you?" exclaimed Leif when he saw this.

"I thought there was no danger, who knew that there would be sudden deaths here" This time it was Livi's mistake, but he really didn't know that something had happened to the mine beforehand, otherwise he would definitely not have brought Xiao Ming with him.

Wait, knowing that something will happen to the mine, he won't come himself!
