Chapter 576: Chris, Elf Again?

Of course, even if he wants to stay and see the results, Xia Duo still has to take into account the unexpected situation, whether it is an accident from the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce or an accident from the person behind the fish-man incident.

While the veteran arcanist named Syd was checking on the aquatic plants, Shado returned to the "Lucky Owen", and he called Old Owen and Ruth's first mate, and commanded:

"Now that the situation has changed, Captain Owen, let me ask you, how many days will it take to get from Lake Mechert to Savile Territory?"

"My lord, you can return to the Savile territory after about 15 days of normal sailing, considering that after entering the Wolfburg River section, it will be downstream and it will probably be reduced by a day or two according to the speed of the current in this season."

"Then if the people on the Owen are transferred to other ships, will there be enough food on those ships to carry enough food for all the people to use for 15 days?"

Old Owen didn't answer immediately, but thought carefully for a while before saying his judgment, "My lord, if it was before, it might not work, but this day we only brought more than 400 people, and the voyage has already passed halfway, so it should be no problem for other ships to support for 15 days." ”

"Good!" Xia Duo breathed a sigh of relief, although he was going to stay and see the results, but if the fleet was all gone, then the rest of the travel and mapping plans would almost come to naught.

He didn't want to wander alone in the wilderness, even if it was a water environment that was friendly to him.

"Now transfer the people and the food immediately, leaving only the basic crew on the Owen, and the food for the next few days, if all goes well, we can still catch up with the fleet in front."

"Yes, my lord."

First Officer Ruth, who received the order, immediately left to summon the other ships, while Owen Sr. stayed.

"Captain Owen, I know you only retired the year before last, so did you encounter fish-man robbers when you sailed past Lake Mechter?" ”

"Never, but I once met a lone fish-man in the river near Savile's territory, and I sold it to an adventurer for 20 gold coins, and then I heard that he sold it for 100 gold coins, and now I think about it, I still regret it."

Looking at the nostalgic look of old Owen, it is estimated that this incident should have left a deep imprint in his heart, and Xia Duo did not interrupt him, but Owen still reacted quickly, he was in front of the lord, and quickly apologized:

"My lord, when people are old, they are easy to think blindly."

"Captain Owen, you're not old, and sometimes I really doubt your age, you don't look like someone in your 60s at all." Xia Duo said with a smile.

The elder Owen was in good shape, and after he retired and was rehired by Xia Duo as the captain of the Owen, he still insisted on taking the helm himself, and he was very energetic, of course, because of this, he was able to become the captain of the Owen.

After talking and laughing, the business still has to continue to ask, Xia Duo doesn't mind showing a pro-people side in front of his own people, but this premise is that they obey the order of the Great Xia Lord, or the order of Xia Duo.

Seeing that Old Owen was a little restrained, Xia Duo sighed silently in his heart, after all, he had not become a person of Daxia that he was satisfied with, and it seemed that he still had to look at the next generation, so he continued to ask:

"You also saw the scene on the bow of the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce before, there are so many fish people in Lake Mehte! Captain Owen, did you know about this before? ”

"I don't know, if I knew that there were so many fishmen in Lake Mecht, I would have chosen to retire a long time ago." Owen looked palpitating, he was indeed frightened by the dense fish-men.

After that, Xia Duo asked some detailed questions, and determined that the fish-people who normally slipped out of Lake Mehmet were like wild beasts, and did not give birth to wisdom or aquatic plants.

It seems that the aquatic grass carp people should have appeared recently.

……

In a short time, all the lords of the "Owen" were transferred to the other ships of the fleet, and those ships soon set sail, except for the "Owen".

After leaving a vigilance spell, Xia Duo continued to walk through the water to the big ship of the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce, and at this time, it suddenly occurred to him that walking on the water was a bit bluffing, but after all, he still had to walk on his own.

But using [Flying Technique] is a bit wasteful, if you can have a flying mount at this time, it will be much more convenient! And not only now, many times when you need to use [Flying Technique], you can also use a flying mount instead.

Xia Duo thought of what Nia had told him a few days ago, after he left, Archmage Greta gave him another pair of pegasus as an additional reward for the princess, and of course the two pegases had already been sent back to the Tower of Time by Nia.

If he leaves a few days late, he may be able to take the flying horse aboard.

Even in the [Projection Plane] Xia Duo had never ridden a pegasus, he was still very interested in this kind of flying mount of the elves, of course, he was more interested in unicorns.

Pegasus is nothing more than a flying horse in his eyes of Chador, which is indeed rare, but compared to a unicorn that can speak, have intelligence, and can cast spells, Pegasus is nothing.

……

When they arrived at the big ship of the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce, Syd was gone, and Miles was not there, only Timothy was talking to a strange mage at the bow of the ship, and it seemed that the investigation team that Timothy mentioned earlier had already come.

Xia Duo stepped forward to say hello, and then asked, "Your Excellency Timothy, how is the situation now?" ”

"So far, the position is quite smooth, as for the further situation, we have to wait for the results of Chris's team's investigation, I forgot to introduce to you, this is Chris, a senior arcanist of the Arcane Federation."

Xia Duo saluted, but he didn't expect to meet a senior arcanist, and it was also from the Arcane Federation, which made him a little curious about this so-called investigation team.

Is this the outsourcing team that the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce is looking for in the Austrian Federation, or is it someone from the Austrian Federation who joined the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce?

And is this investigation team just going through the motions like Archmage Oron who went to Hawk Collar to investigate the assassination of the mage before?

"Lord Chado, I have heard your nephew mention you more than once, he is also a pioneer and is now carving out new lands in the Plains of Conch. He admired the "Great Xia Ling's Standard Pioneering Manual" written by you, and he told me that if it weren't for this book, he would be ready to give up pioneering. ”

Chris looked at Xia Duo curiously, as if to see what was so special about Xia Duo that he could write a book that his arrogant nephew would admire.

Ahem –

Xia Duo was a little uncomfortable stared at by Chris, covered his mouth and coughed, and quickly changed the topic, "What did Your Excellency Chris find here, who is behind those aquatic grass carp people?" What do those aquatic plants do? ”

A series of questions stopped Chris, he glanced at Timothy, and saw that he had no objection, so he replied: "Our team is good at tracking clues, and so far we have found several traces of human interference, but who is behind the water grass carp man, we still need to continue to look for clues, my people are doing it, and then keep the clues and bring them back to Severton to do further investigation, but based on experience, I speculate that this matter is inseparable from the elves;

"As for the role of aquatic plants, this is not what our team is good at, maybe it would be better to wait for the Arcanist of Said to come back and ask him."

Genie?

Xia Duo was silent, how come there are elves everywhere, and it really feels a little ghostly, so will the mysterious organization involved with Rodney also be elves?

No, Chadorf quickly dismissed the speculation, and Lord Hawke said that the mysterious organization was behind a Grand Arcanist, and that it was implicated in the Rodney Order, which he still believed.

If the mysterious organization is also behind the elves, then what is Lord Hawke's operation, is it a dog-eat-dog between different elven forces?

If it's really an elven force dog eats a dog, shouldn't it be a direct identity?

If it was the same elven force, then there was no need to say something like that.

It seems that the aquatic grass fish man incident here should be the mysterious organization No. 2, and it is not enough to have a mysterious organization, but this is another one, which is really troublesome!

Looking at the calm lake, Xia Duo couldn't help but feel a little irritable.
