Chapter 144: The Mine
Early in the morning, in a cabin in the ship, Molly is praying in front of a holy emblem, which is what the believers of Ransendel do every day, after praying in the early morning, ready for the day's divine magic, Ades and Mia watched the ceremony, listening to Molly singing the song of the morning light, this is a complex and beautiful music, Mia was attracted by Molly's singing, and her little head unconsciously beat little by little, following the song.
In the singing, Molly resonated with Lansendel's emblem, Molly hurriedly picked up the information transfer disk that had been prepared long ago from her side, and passed on the news, and the song also stopped, without singing, the resonance gradually weakened.
Soon, the news was all passed out, Molly put the message plate aside, continued to chant, when the waves outside the window of the boat reflected the light of the sunrise, Molly's prayer was finished, she stood up, and saluted Ades and Mia, which was the etiquette of the friendly sect after praying and watching the ceremony, and Adès and Mia also returned the salute according to the etiquette of their gods.
Molly saw that Adès had finished saluting, took two steps forward and took Mia's arm, and said to the master and servant, "Let's go up and have breakfast, let's talk while eating." ”
Yesterday Mia still puffed out her cheeks and didn't want to take the boat, who knew that waiting for them on the boat was a big sister, and she was also the priest of Lansendel, standing next to Molly felt the breath and warmth of the sun, which made Mia full of inexplicable affection for Molly, with the acquiescence of Ades, Molly's intentional pull, Mia quickly established a friendly relationship with Molly, and the two women almost slept together last night.
Mia, this snack goods, as soon as I heard about eating. Ignoring his young master, he pushed Molly out of the hatch. As he walked, he said, "The food is still fresh when it has just set sail." Hurry up and eat it, otherwise it won't taste good in two days.
Ades shook his head and followed, this future maid chief is unreliable, sooner or later she will sell her young master because of food.
Molly smeared butter on the white bread and said to Ades: "Ades, I think it's still not safe for you two to go to the mine, I can't wait, I just sent a message back to the territory, and asked someone to get equipment and wait." Let's go in together.
Anyway, if there is no result of the investigation this time, I guess the teacher will not be able to hold on, and the noble council will pass the application of the illegitimate son, and the territory left by the ancestors will fall into the hands of others.
In that case, even if I had gone to the kingdom of God of our Lord and met my father and brother, I would not have known how to explain to them. ”
"What rank are you, ma'am?" said Adès, smearing some blueberry jam on white bread and waiting for Molly's answer as he ate.
"Four ......," Molly continued, swallowing the bread, "and my brother's widow, Angelina, who is also a believer in our lord, and a priest like me. Moreover, she is of a higher rank than me, and before my brother died, she was already preparing to advance to the rank of Holy Warrior, which is one of the reasons why she was able to escape my little niece. ”
"Uh-huh......" Adès chewed on bread in his mouth. Motioned for Molly to continue.
"I'm a fourth-level priest, and Angelina is a fifth-level priest, as long as the enemy isn't too strong. I think we can handle it. Molly explained their situation to Adès.
Adès munched on bread and thought. After a moment, he swallowed the bread and said, "It's dangerous." What if something happens to your little niece?
Molly said with obvious sadness in her eyes: "It's just a difference in time, if the matter of the viscount can't be resolved, unless we give up the territory and hide in the church, we will die sooner or later, they won't let us go, I've been thinking about this for a long time." ”
Adès nodded, but did not speak......
He also knew in his heart that if he was the illegitimate son, if he rightfully controlled the territory, he would not let go of Molly and the little girl, it was the blood of the old viscount, and he was qualified to inherit the territory and title, and if he didn't kill them, he wouldn't sleep well.
Because it was an empty ship, it only took them a day and a half to arrive at the Barony of Boden, on the dock of the territory, there were already people waiting for them, got off the boat, and met a priestess in steel armor, holding a mace, as soon as she saw Molly, she greeted her, the mace was gone, threw it on the ground, and hugged Molly tightly.
Molly's eyes were red, and she comforted the priestess softly, and when the priestess had settled down, she brought her to the two of Ades' master and servant and introduced them to each other.
This is Molly's brother's widow, Angelina Anslow, as for the surname before marriage, Molly didn't say, the four of them knew each other, and they didn't talk nonsense, they rode directly on the horse brought by Angelina and went straight to the mine.
Molly was afraid that someone in the baron's family would collude with the illegitimate son, so when the news came back, she directly asked Angelina to take the horses and wait at the docks, and the baron's mansion did not go back, and took the master and servant of Ades to investigate the miner's disappearance.
The barony's copper mine cave is at the foot of a mountain, and it is already evening when it reaches the foot of the mountain, and Adès has some small green stones from the gravel on the side of the road, which is the appearance of the copper mine rusting in contact with the air, it seems that this copper mine has produced a lot of output before the accident, and the gravel contains copper, which is estimated to be a rich mine.
When Molly was talking to the guard, he suddenly stepped forward with a knife, stunted him and said to the two priests: "I don't care if he is loyal to you or not, but at this time, we must prevent foreign factors, if we go in, he sends a message out and directly blocks us in the mine, we will die, so I'm sorry." ”
Molly and Angelina were silent, and Adès asked Mia to come up and help, trapping the guards in a tree, and if they could get out in three days, the guards wouldn't die, and if they couldn't......
Ades and Mia tied up the guards, patted Molly on the shoulder, and walked into the dark mine, Molly and Angelina looked at each other, sighed and followed in, they knew that what Ades said made sense, and he used extraordinary means at all times, and now he couldn't care about so much.
Besides, Angelina gave up even her daughter this time, not to mention the current guard, if there was an accident in the mine, how could the little girl survive such a disaster alone?
Came to the front hall of the mine, this is where the workers prepare before entering the mine, Ades and Mia have dim vision, whether there is a torch or not has little effect on them, but the two priests are different, Ades took out a torch doused with pine resin from his waist bag, handed it to Mia to light it.
When the two priestesses came in, Adès said, "Molly, take out the map of the mines." Molly also pulled out a leather scroll from a space pouch.
Ades opened it and saw that this mine was not complicated, there were only five passages, the middle one was deeper, and there were two on each side.
Angelina next to her also took out two volumes of things from the satchel on her body, handed them to Ades and said: "This volume is the most original map kept at home, this is the adventurer who went in to investigate and drew it, you can refer to it." ”
Ades looked at all three volumes of maps once, and they were much the same, except that the original one was relatively simple, with only two passages, which should have not been drawn later.
Ades pointed to the passage on the left and said to the three women: "You see, the two passages here are connected here, and the outermost passage is directly at the end, we will act separately and gather at the connected location, which is only more than 100 meters deep, and if the time is fast, it will not be dark when we gather." ”
Molly and Angelina nodded, it is true, the passage on both sides is a newly opened mine in the past few years, not very deep, just the middle one has been dug for decades, a little deeper.
Molly and Adès knew each other better, so she spoke first: "How do you group them?"
"Molly, you and I are together, Angelina and Mia together, one of them is a preparatory paladin, and the other is a paladin directly, and Mia is a shield skill learned from the dwarven defenders, you can rest assured in defense. ”
This distribution is very reasonable, if Ades and Mia are in a group, no one can say what happened in the mine, and the same is true for Molly and them, separated, there is a sense of mutual surveillance in it, of course, Molly They also have some trust in Adez, so this distribution is acceptable to everyone.
"Young Master, you have to be careful. ”
"Mia, too, if you encounter a situation, shout loudly, such a short passage, I will definitely be able to hear it, everyone will see you later. Adès gave a few words to his little maid, took the torch and went into the deeper passage.
What was left for Mia and Angelina was the outermost and shortest, and the place where the two passages met was the end of the passage.
Ades and Molly walked more than ten meters, the light in the cave became darker and darker, the torch could only be found less than ten meters in front of him, Ades saw the oil lamp hanging in front of him, walked over to light it, but when he looked, the lamp oil inside was burned out, so he had to give up and continue walking.
After walking for another ten meters, Adès heard Molly take a few quick steps and follow him, he slowly stopped, turned to Molly and said, "Scared?"
"Nope!"
Ades shrugged his shoulders, without exposing the noblewoman's lies, he handed the torch to Molly, stared at her slightly pale face and said, "If there is a situation, you will immediately throw the torch away and go directly to the battle state, leave me alone, protect yourself first, understand?"
Molly nodded...... (To be continued!)
