Chapter 225: The Parcel at the Bottom of the Lake

Soon, Catherine found herself worried in vain, looking down from the raft, she could see Pannis, who was dressed in a waterproof leather suit, writhing flexibly like a fish in the water, and there were obviously a lot of twisted souls wandering around, but Pannis often just twisted his waist and legs slightly, and easily passed through the gap between the two twisted souls, swimming in the water actually seemed to be much more agile than on the ground, more than ten meters deep at the bottom of the lake, it only took less than a minute to swim to the backpack at the bottom of the lake.

"You're pretty much enough, no, it's a few of you, give me a little bit. Dilly lay on the raft, the warm sun shining on his body, making him squint comfortably and yawn, but seeing several girls staring at the bottom of the lake with nervous faces, Dilly said in an indignant tone: "It's completely unnecessary to worry about him, the biggest difference between that guy and the fish is that he can go ashore, instead of worrying about him, you should worry about what to eat tonight." Really, I really want to burn you six. ”

"Why?" Lina asked in surprise, "We didn't do anything strange, did we, why did you suddenly want to burn us?"

"Burn burn burn burn. Dilly clutched his eyes and lay on the ground, shouting, "Burn you all to death." ”

"He's coming up. The other girls paid no attention to Dilly's sudden madness, and Freya leaned on the other side of the raft and bowed her head and said, "It seems that there are not many things in the backpack, and he seems to have carried them all." ”

"Boom", a few minutes later, a waterproof leather bag was thrown from the water onto the raft, and as soon as it landed, it made a dull sound, apparently the contents of the leather bag were quite heavy. Immediately, Pannis gently hit the edge of the raft, jumped out of the water like a fish, and landed firmly on the raft. He took off the waterproof leather hat on his head, wiped his face and said, "Interesting, they accidentally dropped something, if that's the case, it's bad luck." ”

"What did you find?" Catherine's expression softened until Pannis returned safely to the raft. Trying to make his tone as usual, he lowered his head and untied the leather bag, and said in a daze, "The spar stove......? And what is this? It looks like a piece of metal, there are no gaps at all, hey, it seems to be a little soft, Freya, is this some kind of strange machine?"

"Well, it does look like metal. Freya gave a casual look. Nodding his head, he said, "Because it's a piece of metal, you've become stupid, big sister." ”

"Hey, talk well. Catherine glared at Freya dissatisfied, and threw the metal block onto the raft: "The question is, why do you want to put such a large piece of metal in your backpack? It's still square, the sides are more than twenty centimeters long, and it's so heavy, who would have thought that someone would carry such a thing with them." ”

"Big sister. Vivien looked at Catherine with a look of pity and said, "You just threw away half a million gold coins. ”

In the next moment, the metal ingot miraculously returned to Catherine's arms. Even with the eyes of a demigod, he didn't see the knight girl's movements clearly. It's as if the girl's speed has surpassed the limits of human beings. Catherine held the metal ingot tightly in her arms, looked at the lake with vigilant eyes like a beast protecting its cubs, and made sure that there were no other creatures left, and then relaxed a little and asked, "What kind of metal is this, it is actually worth 500,000 gold coins?"

"Mithril. Vivien said lightly: "Mithril worth about 500,000 gold coins." ”

"Five thousand Mithril coins?" Catherine even sharpened her voice, hugging the metal ingot tighter, "You're not kidding. It's not like I've never seen Mithril, it's white metal, it's not black at all, and it can't be rusty on the surface, Mithril is a metal that is hard to rust. Even if you soak it in water for a thousand years, it may not corrode so much. ”

"No kidding, this is a special Mithril that has been processed by a mage. Vivien beckoned, "I'll show you how to show it and you'll know." ”

"Demonstrate what?" Catherine asked uneasily, handing over the metal ingot, "You won't break it, will you?" ”

"Hey, big sister, pay attention to the image. Freya laughed and pulled the knight girl aside: "It's just a metal ingot, no matter how you get it, it can't be broken, you calm me down." ”

"Well, that seems to be true. Catherine sneered and took a few steps back, staring at Vivien's movements: "I'm just asking, Eun, just asking, it's a joke, hahaha, just kidding." ”

Vivian rolled her eyes, ignoring the female knight whose intelligence had plummeted because of the 500,000 gold coins, and snapped her fingers casually, and a blue flame immediately rose in front of her. The mage girl held a metal square in the flames for two minutes under the protection of the magic shield with both hands, then extinguished the flames, put the metal ingot on Catherine's shield and said, "The temperature is almost there, big sister, look." ”

Under Catherine's wide-eyed gaze, Vivien twisted on the metal ingot, and the originally hard metal ingot was actually broken off by her very lightly, as if the metal had become as soft as resin. The mage girl lowered her head and kneaded the metal in her hand repeatedly with her hands like a pottery, and soon the small ball of metal was kneaded into a standard disc, which Catherine was familiar with, because many of Vivien's magic circles were engraved on similar discs, the only difference was the color. Vivien didn't speak, but took out a gray potion from the pocket covered with her work skirt and poured it directly onto the black disc, with a snort, a large black mist emerged from the disc, and by the time the mist dissipated, the original black disc had turned into a silvery white, just like the portable magic circle that Vivien often carried with her.

So, the metal ingot, which had been thrown aside, returned to Catherine's arms, and the girl cried out for heat, but resolutely refused to let go. Vivian smiled bitterly and said: "See, this is the product of processing Mithril with special materials when forging, usually if you want to change the shape of Mithril, you must burn it at a high enough temperature for a long time before you can barely forge it, but after this processing, it is very convenient, and mages can make Mithril items according to their needs at any time." However, in fact, this special processing is actually more troublesome than normal forging, so everyone will prepare a little when they go out, but there are not many times when they are really willing to use it. I said, big sister, you put it down first, it won't run away on its own. ”

"All right, huh?" Catherine noticed that the raft had begun to move forward again, and that Pannis had already taken off his waterproof leather suit and ran to the tail to support the boat. However, the knight girl didn't care about this anymore, and smirked happily for a while, before carefully putting the Mithril ingot aside and rummaging through the leather bag for a while. Unfortunately, there was only one Mithril ingot in the pouch, and everything else was heavy metal equipment.

"Did they really accidentally drop the bag into the lake?" the girl finally regained her composure, and said suspiciously, "Although these devices are not very valuable, they are often used in adventures, and it is unlikely that they were deliberately discarded." ”

"With this Mithril ingot, it is impossible to discard it intentionally. Freya shook her head and said, "But what makes me strange is that even if they accidentally dropped the bag into the lake, why didn't they go down and pick it up?"

"Not everyone has the water skills of Kyle, oh, such good swimming skills, for most people, it's still quite dangerous down there. Dilly said at the bow of the ship: "For adventurers who are also the lowest level of Legendary, compared to their own lives, 500,000 gold coins and their own lives, most people will choose the latter, of course, you are an exception, oh, your grandfather should also be an exception." Well, it's a bit strange, even if no one else cares, your grandfather should go down and pick it up. ”

"It is estimated that it is the same as the essence of wood. Seeing Catherine's face flush again, Pannis coughed dryly and said, "It should also belong to those two clients, but it is only for old field to use temporarily." After falling, if everyone does not let everyone go into the water to salvage in order not to cause unnecessary trouble, others will not have a position to salvage. ”

"There's some truth to that. Dilly tilted his head and thought for a moment and said, "But I always feel a little reluctant." ”

"Then we can only hope that we can find other clues later. Catherine sighed, in fact, the girl still wanted to know about her grandfather's past, but unfortunately there were no more opportunities until now. The girl shook her head helplessly, and turned her gaze back to the pile of things in front of her: "It's a pity, these equipment have long been rusted and can't be used, otherwise if you repair it, you can save thousands of gold coins." ”

"Eldest sister, you ......" Lina covered her face and looked unbearable: "Fortunately, there is no one else except Mr. Dieley, otherwise you are really ashamed." ”

"Saving is a virtue. Catherine said with a serious face: "So, for the sake of ......"

"Don't make a fuss yet, Kyle, and stop again. Dilley, who had been lying at the front of the raft, suddenly stood up and said loudly: "I think there is something wrong with our guess, they are not backpacks that were accidentally dropped." ”

Following Dilly's line of sight, another backpack lay quietly at the bottom of the Lake of the End, and not only that, but further away, there seemed to be other packages sinking motionless to the bottom of the water.

"What's going on?" the girls looked blankly at the packages that appeared on the bottom of the lake, "Could it be a shipwreck?" (To be continued.) )
