When Rand returned to Iowa Castle, he found Crane and Louis in his parlor, and the dragon lady Gorea chatting with them.

"Rand, you're back, I still have something!" As soon as Gu Leia saw Rand appear, she immediately got up and said goodbye, after entering the spring, the basin entered the waiting period for the dependents and sea demons to concentrate, and Roseburg also began to get busy, although Guan Na trained a lot of assistants and apprentices, but there are too few dragon mages who can replace Gu Leia's dragon tentacles.

"If it weren't for a few words, I really didn't find out that Gu Leiya's understanding of dragon transformation has reached the level of a legend," Louis Shendu looked at the dragon girl who left and whispered, "I always thought that she could only realize the potential of her bloodline when she came to the Imperial Capital School of Magic......"

"I don't think I've heard your words somewhere......" Rand glanced at Crane, who had also thought that Wendy could only become a high-level as soon as possible if he went to them.

Seeing the two high-ranking members of the empire coming together, Rand knew that these two must have come to find the old goblin Osser, but they came together, which still made Rand a little curious: "Two Excellencies? What are you? ”

"We're coming to see Lord Osser Prager," Klein knew what he was thinking when he saw Rand's expression, and quickly explained, "Whoever comes alone to ask him, the other must want to know what the conversation is about, so we made an appointment to come together and ask him about it every time." ”

"Yes," Louis also smiled and nodded, "so that Lord Osser will not devote his precious time to answering repetitive questions. ”

Louis's attitude towards Rand has improved dramatically since he introduced the old goblin Osher Prager to the two legends, who had always thought that Rand was targeting the Imperial School of Magic and Wizardry, but now he was sure that Rand just hated the misers in the Imperial Treasury Department.

Anyway, the whole empire hates them, and there is not much of a new god like Rand.

"Now I'm more and more sure that even if I go to the Guardian Sanctuary once or twice, I may not be able to gain more than I have now," Crane smiled and took out a scroll, "This is the distribution map of the Goblin Period Demon Furnace provided by Lord Orsher!" ”

"So, you're going to follow the map? Develop one by one? Rand finally understood the reason why the two in front of him were so happy, in the past few thousand years, the legends had to send countless expeditions to find all kinds of goblin ruins, and the most important harvest of one of the ruins was the magic furnace of the Goblin Age.

Now with Orsher, the situation is different, they have an accurate treasure map, and they only need to dig directly.

"Look at what you said, can we leave you with this kind of good thing?" Louis laughed and said, "I have already reported to the Demon Emperor and the God Emperor, in the future, the three of us will form a joint team, and according to the location on this map, we will first search around the Four Pillars Mountain, and with accurate information, and you, the god who specializes in the Demon Furnace, which ruins can't enter?" ”

Both Klein and Louis knew that the old goblin was Rand's subordinate, and the magic furnace was Rand's responsibility, but if he moved his mind to the ruins, there would be nothing to do with the imperial capital, so they decided to join Rand to search and excavate the goblin ruins together, and share the knowledge, magic furnace and wealth in the ruins.

"You're right," Louis said, "there are so many magic furnaces left in the Goblin Empire, and even if even one percent can be reactivated, there will be 100 of them!" ”

Rand has only developed two relics, and found two goblins and several magic furnaces respectively, the most important magic furnace for others is not so precious in Rand's eyes, but it is very important for Rand to allow the human empire to fully absorb the remains of the goblin empire.

Rand hit it off with Louis and Klein, and immediately decided to let the knights of Avenny split up a small team to serve as a ruins expedition group, and started to explore near the Four Pillars Mountain.

In fact, Osser's value to the empire is far more than the map of ruins, and the magic plates he wrote down no longer support a new discipline in the Tower of Purity and the Imperial Capital School of Magic; The knowledge of goblin machinery that he summarized also accelerated the empire's mastery of goblin magic patterns.

"Rand, although you may not be happy, I still have to advise you not to get involved in the quagmire of the Treasury Department," Louis said with a smile after finishing the conversation, "Almost all legends understand that they are just a lump of dung, but the magic plant of the empire grows on this lump of dung."

You can now sweep away all the filth with a thunderbolt, but if the dung is really gone, will you let the magic plant of the Empire float in the air? ”

“…… The environment suitable for the primary magic plant is not necessarily suitable for the intermediate magic plant, the dung can grow plants, and it can also erode the root veins of plants. Rand said quite seriously.

"But speaking of which, I heard that many places in the southeast were invaded by pirates yesterday, and one of them even forced back the knights of the southeast kingdom, preparing to threaten the newly built Demon Furnace Temple."

"I think you ought to tell Arvinne Golden Moon about this," said Louis cheerfully, "if her Knights wish to explore the coastal islands after the Battle of the Four Pillars, it must be." ”

"As long as you can explore the ruins," Klein added.

The attitude of the two lords made Rand a little frustrated, in the past, when it came to the coastal area, the empire would still regard it as an important part of itself, but as the conflict between land and sea became more and more intensified, the high-ranking people of the empire regarded it as a pirate.

"Your Excellency, the Southeast Kingdom is part of the Empire, I mean, can the Empire come forward to ease the attack of the Seagod Clan?"

However, Klein gave Rand a basin of cold water: "Rand, the sea is not the same as the land, it has its own rules, your relative, the Marquis of Fiat, began to defraud subsidies in the name of clearing pirates as early as 10 years ago, the empire originally only needed the magic algae of the sea, but in today's situation, their significance to the empire is no better than in the past." ”

"So the Empire intends to abandon its own coast?" Crane's words shocked Rand a little.

"Isn't that weird?" Louis said, "The group of nobles along the coast themselves believe in the sea god, and they think about using the resources of the empire to curry favor with the sea monster every day, and now it is normal for them to taste the sea god's anger themselves." ”

……

The two lords left happily, but Rand couldn't laugh, seeing what they meant, the Empire was ready to essentially abandon the coastal areas, which made him feel cold.

"Rand, your face is so bad!" When Kaye saw Rand, he asked with concern, "Are you sick?" ”

"It's okay," Rand casually asked when he saw that there were only centaur girls in the lord's room, "where is Guanna?" I remember she came with you. ”

"She went to Princess Harkala to learn magic from Ernst." Kaye said, "She'll go to Lord Ernst whenever she has free time. ”

"Does little Kaye want to learn from Ernst?" Rand smiled and asked, "Let's go, let's go to them!" ”
