More than four hours later, the excavator returned to Deep Mine City. Gnome Mayor Finch kept his promise and released half of the commando team to take them home on an excavator. The remaining half of the goblins will obviously not be released until Lukka and the others return to the ground.

The commandos who were half put back, led by the deputy captain Liz, got off the excavator and all lay on the ground crying loudly, with a posture of being away from their homeland for decades.

"Are those gnomes abusing you?" asked Gavin.

Liz looked up, choked up, and said, "The food they serve is all sweet!

Lukka sighed, he also had a headache thinking about the food of the gnomes. Eating at the goblins can at least provide a "less salt" option, but gnomes soak sugar deep in all their food, and they can't soak it in water.

Fortunately, the Silent Death carried enough supplies, and this time he asked Gavin for a large bag of refined green cotton that could be used as food, this kind of thing according to Phil's test, it is said to be rich in vitamins, and it can solve some health problems caused by the lack of fresh vegetables and fruits during some long voyages.

Boarding the manned excavator, Lukka turned back and asked Gavin one last time: "Have you still not made up your mind?"

Gavin rubbed the fingers of his hands together and bowed his head in silence.

Lukka sighed and closed the hatch.

On the way back, he kept frowning, and his fingers subconsciously tapped the staff, making a rhythmic sound.

"What's the matter? didn't make peace talks, and made you so sad?" asked Ollie.

"Not really. Lukka rubbed his temples, "I just feel like I've forgotten something, and it should be important." ”

"What's important?" Ollie nervousned.

"If I knew, would I still call it 'forgot'?" Lukka shook his head helplessly. He brought back a lot of things this time, including not only the refined emerald cotton ore for eating, but also the emerald cotton fiber fabric for wearing, and even the candied fruit boxes he stuffed into his backpack, but he still felt that something was missing.

"You said that eighty percent of the important things have to do with money, right?" said Phil with a smile.

"Money?" Lukka scratched his head, "Ah, money!"

"What kind of money?" asked Phil curiously.

"Gavin promised me that if Daniel took his assault team out of the collapsed well area, he would pay me thirty thousand silver coins!" Lukka scratched at his hair, feeling like he had lost a lot.

"Shall we turn around and go back?" said Phil, walking over to the cockpit and looking, "I can probably tell what the buttons are for." ”

Lukka hesitated, but decided to go back to the ground first. The 30,000 silver coins were originally extorted casually, and now it is more important to solve the current crisis first. However, when he had time, the first thing he had to do was to return to Deep Mine City, go to Gavin to settle the account, and ask Thea to help calculate the interest.

Shut up and put the navigator in the square of the pier. It's far from the town, and there aren't many residents around to evacuate around. After all, most gnomes are still disgusted by the ugly machinery of those guys underground.

Not only the crew of the Silent Reaper, but also the gnome mayor Finch waited by the navigator for a long time. He was a man of his word, and sent the remaining half of the goblin commando team to the vehicle, only then did he breathe a sigh of relief and quickly greeted him.

Lukka shoved three candied fruit boxes into Finch's hand: "The contents are gone, you can make do with the boxes." If you send candied fruit in the future, it shouldn't be stolen. ”

There was originally a simple magic seal on these candied fruit boxes, and it stands to reason that the goblins could not open it. However, when the teleportation box is controlled by the power of change, these primary energies are obviously filtered once, and they lose their effectiveness. Only shaped spells, such as Lukka's Illumination, can be maintained on it.

Finch took the box and wiped the sweat from his head.

"You don't have to be so nervous," Lukka said, "we don't have that easy to get into trouble. ”

"Are you nervous? Did you know that on the third day you were taken away, someone from the Undercurrent Chamber of Commerce came to inquire about your whereabouts!" Mayor Finch was still quite jealous of the black market.

"How did you reply?" asked Luca.

"I told them that you had come to our neighbor's house on the island. Mayor Finch said.

"What are you hiding from them?" said Luca, a little strange.

"I'm telling the truth. Finch looked up at him and said innocently.

"Do you think that we are also the ones who helped the black market deliver goods once, and if you go missing, you can't deal with the other party's investigation, so we use this kind of argument to put the blame on those goblins, right?" Lukka asked solemnly, staring into his eyes.

"What kind of dwarf do you think of me?" shouted Mayor Finch, "I'm afraid you won't come back, but I've detained their entire strike party!"

"How did they get to you?" asked Luca word for word.

"This ...... Don't worry about these details, I've prepared a welcome party, let's have a good time!" Finch immediately changed the subject.

"Your banquet, forget it, I'd rather go and eat dry food. Ollie waved his hand.

"Speaking of which, who did the black market send?" asked Luca.

"It's a kobold who came, and when they heard that you weren't there, they didn't say much, left a letter and sailed away. Finch replied. ”

Back at the town's banquet hall, Mayor Finch asked the servant to bring the letter from home and give it to Luca.

The paper used in the envelope was ordinary, but the fire paint seal on it was not ordinary, and there was a thin trace of magical energy on the reddish-brown solidified pattern, and Lukka believed that if it weren't for this protection, Mayor Finch would have opened the letter several times.

He opened the envelope and read it from cover to cover.

"What's written on it?" asked Ollie.

Others also gathered around curiously, including Mayor Finch, who was overly curious.

"Nothing special, just ask me to take a trip to their branch in the Boiling Sea, saying that their boss wants to meet me. Luca said.

"Are you going, then?" asked Ollie.

"I'm not free now, I'll talk about it later when I have time. Luca thinks it's better to have as little contact with the black market as possible.

"Reasonable, the invitation of the Undercurrent Chamber of Commerce is not good when you hear it. Mayor Finch chimed in.

"Don't worry about the mayor," Lukka patted him on the shoulder, "We agreed on the location of the ruins, can we tell now?"

"Of course, I've already packed all my luggage! Finch said.

"Looks like I can't get rid of you. Lukka shook his head, "Tomorrow at ten o'clock in the morning, my ship will set sail on time, and before then you can bring everything you want to bring up." ”..
