Chapter 30: The Wood Crow

At five o'clock in the morning, Linde sat in front of the castle, sitting on a stone bench, knocking on the melon seeds he had just bought.

The male servants, along with Luther and Marvin, squatted in front of the castle to grill fish, while Aino and Alice kindly went to help Maid Two.

Lind was waiting for the slaves to return, and he had promised them a fish if they could provide useful information or valuable items, and if they could find a sprout butterfly, they would be given civilian status.

One of the slaves was a man with a good background in painting who drew a simple map of the town of Yanan for Linde.

With the giant town as the center, the town of Yanan takes on the form of a circle, and in addition to the two castles on the side, there is also an abandoned warlock tower, and the remaining slaves are still in the warlock tower.

At this moment, a thin slave with slender limbs returned, holding a pocket watch in his hand.

"My lord, I found this pocket watch in the chest of the skeleton at the bottom of the well to the north."

Linde took the bad watch in his hand and observed, made of silver, the hour hand stayed at twelve o'clock, and it was estimated that it could be sold for a silver scale.

The slaves who came back before also brought these knick-knacks, most of them rusty knick-knacks, which were not of high value.

Linde shook his head:

"Let's go get a grilled fish."

"Thank you for your kindness."

There should be five more people who haven't come back yet.

At this moment, another slave returned, with a few small balls and a butterfly corpse in his hands.

"My lord, what I found in the Warlock Tower at this time."

Linde put the small round ball in his hand and observed, a small explosive bomb with a small lead, I don't know if it can be used.

Lind tossed the bomb to Luther, who had a good throwing level, and might as well buy some bombs for the Hat Warlock Tower tomorrow.

Linde looked at the butterfly corpse, its wings colorful and colorful.

This is not bad, called the Phantom Butterfly, the powder inside the butterfly has a hallucinogenic effect, some nobles especially like this thing, Gnosis Warlock can create a kind of mental interference through the butterfly, and it can also be made into butterfly jewelry, the market price hardware scales.

"Go get three grilled fish."

"Thank you for your kindness."

Five minutes later, Linde heard an eager pant.

A slave with a severed finger crawled back, and on his bare right arm, there was a granulated butterfly!

Pretty!

With the Flesh Butterflies, Linde can find some Seabreeze City nobles who don't have the magic power to perform a minor operation on them.

Linde took the initiative to get up and removed the Flesh Butterflies and put them in jars containing the blood of the Bloodline.

Flesh butterflies feed on both blood and the spirituality of living beings, and blood blood is the best food for granula butterflies.

"Adult ......"

The slave was sweating profusely, and had apparently just gone through a great run:

"My lord, I found the Flesh Butterflies, in a basement, yes, there are a lot of them."

Better?

Linde couldn't help but be surprised, this flesh butterflies are not common, unlike common insects, they appear in groups.

Linde handed him the kettle:

"Take a sip of water first, and then take me there!"

The slave took a sip of water and continued:

"But sir, I also saw a big crow there."

"Huh? How big. ”

"A seven-year-old kid was so dark that I couldn't see the color of his feathers."

A crow of this size may be a spiritual creature with magical powers.

This should just be a cosmetic appellation,

Lindh looked at Aino, who had settled here.

Aino shed a cold sweat and said:

"It's like I've seen it in the sky before, and the feathers are green."

The green one is a seed crow, a spiritual creature that spreads tree seeds everywhere.

After asking Luther to take a grilled fish and hand it to the severed finger slave, Lind said:

"Lead the way!"

......

The Severed Finger slave took Linde to the dwelling house, which was right next to the giant tree.

Alice, who is currently the most fleshy presence in the squad, kicked open the half-hidden door.

The basement entrance to this room turned out to be in the hall, and the underground entrance was like a stone floor, which was difficult to find.

Severed Finger Slave says:

"I saw the crow fly into the house and open the floor."

Under Linde's manipulation, Alice kicked open the basement door.

The moment the door opened, a large rat slipped out, but Alice was directly trampled to death.

Alice walked into the basement, picked up the kerosene lamp, and looked around:

"There are three brain butterflies here."

Lind put the granulated butterflies into jars, handed them to Aino, and looked around.

What about my crow?

There were only a few tattered discarded wooden crates in the basement, not even a trace of food scraps.

Lind looked at the neat stone walls, most likely the same as the underground slabs above.

Linde's heart moved, and he manipulated Alice to use the iron mountain against the stone wall one after another.

Bang! Bang!

On the third impact, he really crashed open a stone door.

Linde looked behind the door, and there was a long underground staircase.

The staircase, so that Linde can't guess, this can't be the entrance to the 10,000-meter puppet empire, right?

Be prepared to retreat at any time.

However, Marven, who was following Linde, immediately vetoed Linde's idea.

"Lord Linde, this seems to be the entrance to the wine banquet."

"Wine banquet?"

"Yes, before the town of Yanan was plagued by insects, the previous lords would often invite some distinguished guests to a wine banquet, and would treat the guests with good wine, and the banquet was held at the right time, but I had a little money at that time, and I was not qualified to participate, and I only heard some news."

Is this a serious banquet for sake held underground?

Linde walked a hundred steps down the stairs and saw a vast stone cave.

Twenty granite tables were neatly placed on the floor, with many moss-stained wine glasses on the floor.

Linde walked and looked around.

On either side of the stone wall, there are four cages, all of which are made of white bones.

This so-called wine banquet is mostly a ritual of certain cultists.

Both Marvin and Luther slowed down, and this game was a bit scary against them.

On the stone wall, there are patterns of various creatures, from weak hummingbirds to flying dragons, from monkeys to earth-shaking titan giants, from small salted fish to deep-sea blue whales, these patterns seem to be evolutionary maps.

And at the end of the view, Lind finally saw the crow, beside a large dry tree.

The feathers are like needles, the head is like a crow, and the mouth is black.

Although it is extremely similar in appearance to the seed crow, judging by the knowledge in the book of centipedes, the crow in front of it should be called the wood crow, a rare spiritual creature that can use wood magic and perception techniques and can be tamed.

In the next second, Linde couldn't help but stop.

The wood crow opened its black beak and slowly fed the chewed rat meat and insects to a man on the ground, a man with sprouts and mold.

Linde felt a sense of danger and hurriedly stepped back:

"Aino, detect the other party's skill level."
