Lord of the Oasis

Chapter 853: The History of the Voldemort Family

"What is this?" Kant asked curiously.

"This is the treasure of the town hall of this exhibition hall." The innkeeper said fascinatedly: "It is said that the power of destruction is sealed in the three crystals. A hermit brought them hundreds of years ago. On this deserted island, he planned to bury it forever. He even brought these three crystals into the body of the volcano. But he underestimated the toughness of the crystals, which were thrown into the magma by them At that moment, the mountains around the volcano became a **** on earth, not just the beasts hidden in the forest, all creatures quickly aging at that moment and reached the end of life."

"And then?" Kant took a deep breath and then asked.

"There are dozens of similar islands in this sea area. Since the hermit's visit to the island, this withered island has been in a state of no one's attention." The boss said softly: "Until 3 Hundred years ago, the world’s land was being cut more and more carefully, and the exiled tribal tribes stopped ashore on the island."

"What are the Voldemorts?" Kant asked frowningly.

"Dwarves, gnomes, and goblins." The innkeeper glanced at Kant and responded.

"Then how did they settle down on this island?" Kant's mind showed the figures of Gilbert and the dwarf patriarch.

"When they landed on the island, it was the dormant period of the volcano. The power of spar also stayed at the weakest stage of the year." The hotel owner explained: "It's just that this group of people still immediately noticed that Anomalies on the island."

"Huh?" Kant thought about it and asked, "Is it because of the water quality?"

"Adults are really smart," the hotel owner nodded. "A dwarf was drinking a water in the river, and his body developed an abnormality, causing paralysis of the lower body. Under that condition, no one in the nomadic group could save him. ."

"Then why didn't they choose to leave this place?" Kant became more curious about the history of the island and asked.

"Everyone has limited supplies, and they have drifted from their homeland, and they have exhausted all their food reserves." The boss explained: "And, that winter, the climatic conditions of sea navigation are very bad, there is no Way to sail."

"It turns out so." Kant nodded. "So, what next? What happened?"

"The nomads of the three tribes started hunting when they could not bear the famine. But the animals in the mountains were dead. So they could only gather their luck on weekdays and salvage the uncontaminated fish in the sea." The hotel owner Continue to tell: "After making dried fish, reserve as dry food. Until one day, the freshwater resources in the hands of the nomads are few, and they are forced to start exploring the island."

"Where are they going ashore?" Kant asked.

"On the south side of the island. The location of the volcano is quite close. The search team among the nomads quickly discovered the full picture of the volcano. But compared with the mountain of dry grass, the geothermal resources at the foot of the mountain attracted them more. After hearing such news, the team leader of the team immediately held a meeting within the regiment, intending to move everyone to the vicinity of the volcano." The innkeeper said here and suddenly asked Kant: "If you are an adult, you will Choose to follow the team to the volcano?"

"If I am the person to be led, I will naturally follow the decision made by the leader." Kant said firmly.

"Oh, you are an understanding person, and you can see through the strengths and weaknesses of this plan at a glance." The innkeeper smiled slightly: "At that time, the goblin and dwarf families among the nomads agreed to the decision to go to the volcano."

"What about dwarves?" Kant asked.

"The dwarves chose to stay at the seaside. Although this caused some contradictions at the time, from now on, the dwarves' choice is good." The innkeeper took a deep breath and said, "Because they saved I returned to the Vagabond Party desperate to bring back spars from the volcano."

"Well, from this point of view: the dwarf tribe really has a lot of credit." Kant nodded. "It's just the roamers of these three tribes. How did the seal of the crystal be sealed?"

"Did you forget the hermit I mentioned at the beginning?" said the innkeeper. "Although his body has disappeared, he has left a magic weapon that can temporarily seal the spar. After the power of the spar is sealed The environment on the island has returned to its original state, and the Volde tribes who have established a firm foot on this island have used the mysteries in the group to save the three spars."

"So, where are the three crystal stones now?" Kant asked.

"I don't know." The innkeeper shook his head and sighed: "Now, only the elders within the three clans who have authority can have the authority to know where the spar is."

"It turns out so." Kant nodded. Unexpectedly, the backgrounds of gnomes, goblins, and dwarves on this island are so powerful. This reminded Kant of what he had heard from DeWitt before: the forces of the dark organization enveloped many people on the island when they went to the island, and put the Voldemorts in an embarrassing situation. It seems that the purpose of the group of people is probably to seize the magic spar hidden behind the three tribes, but it was only pierced by the reconnaissance team outside the island.

"Master Kant, the tour of the exhibition hall is over. Let's set off quickly and go to the next destination." The innkeeper took his legs and walked to the front of Kant and called to him.

"Okay." Kant recovered and followed in the footsteps of the innkeeper.

When they walked to the entrance of the hall, they just heard the sound of ‘crackling’ on the colored windows of the exhibition hall.

"Oh, the weather is raining." The innkeeper looked out and looked out of the door.

"Then should we go back to the hotel?" Kant's mood is not beautiful. He was expecting the hotel owner to take him where he would go next, but he was cut off by the shower.

"I'm sorry, Your Highness Kant." The innkeeper stooped down and said: "Today I only took you to this place. The rain is getting bigger and bigger, we should have to rush back to the city immediately."

"It doesn't matter, this exhibition hall is very interesting. I can find such a place, thanks to your boss's care." Kant responded with a smile: "Since the weather is not clear now, let's get on the carriage and go back to the hotel."

"Thank you for being considerate." The innkeeper breathed a sigh of relief and responded straightly.

The two stood quietly at the entrance of the exhibition hall, waiting for the driver to bring the carriage to this place.

Chapter 854: Heavy rain in early spring

The facilities of the pavilion are also complete, when the groom stops the car. Kant and the hotel owner walked to the awning in front of the door, slowly climbed the ladder, and walked into the carriage.

Immediately after the two were seated, the groom immediately whip and directed the carriage to gallop on the avenue where the pool was built.

The carriage's roof was made of wood, and the ticking rain was clearly audible by Kant's ear.

In order to get rid of the moisture, the groom set up a stove in the car just when it rained, so the surrounding air was still mild. Kant sat in the corner, a tired tiredness poured in his body, and turned to glance The innkeeper found that the other party had slept deep.

Kant stared at the beating flames in the furnace, unconsciously. In my mind, I thought about the historical stories I heard before.

Imagine how this small island developed into the present grand scene. How did the Dragon tribe gain the trust of many ethnic groups and become guardians around the volcano. Are they ambitious about the energy mastered by the Voldemort?

Also, the status of the dwarves on this island is related to their decision to stay at the beach? After all, that was something that happened hundreds of years ago. How does the new generation of dwarves think about the development of their own ethnic group?

Questions come to Kant's mind one after another. Some of them are related to each other, while others are independent. Kant held his forehead with his hands, not knowing how to organize a clear network of relationships. Accompanied by the sound of rain, he gradually fell asleep.

However, it didn't take long for Kant to be awakened by the hotel owner.

"His Royal Highness, we are here." The innkeeper leaned in front of Kant and gently shook his shoulder.

"Ah?" Kant opened his eyes dimly. After seeing the face of the innkeeper, he stood up and looked out of the window: the carriage had stopped at the door of the inn.

At this time, the driver approached the carriage, handed an umbrella to Kant, and said, "Master Kant, it's still raining outside. I borrowed an umbrella from Mr. Accountant for you and watched it cold."

"Okay, thank you." Kant took the umbrella in a daze, looked up at the innkeeper who was still sitting, and asked, "The shopkeeper, where are you going?"

"Oh, the guy in the shop told me that the people in the monitoring office had something to do with me. I have to rush over now." The innkeeper said with a smile: "The adults there are very angry. Waiting for no one. You can only say goodbye to your adult."

"Since you are in a hurry, I won't delay you anymore." Kant rubbed his eyes and stood up and said, "It's been a great day today. Boss, we will travel together next time."

"Good." The innkeeper quickly promised: "Adult, you should be very tired, hurry back to the room to rest."

Kant nodded slightly, took the umbrella, and walked off the carriage.

The innkeeper followed and took up the curtain with his hand, waving goodbye to Kant.

Bean's raindrops hit the paper umbrella and crackled. After Kant hurried to say goodbye, he walked to the door of the hotel and put away.

When the account room heard the sound, he immediately came out and asked, "Mr. Kant, you are back. Hurry and enter the store to sit and roast the fire. Now that the weather is uncertain, be careful of the cold."

"Thank you." Kant replied with a smile. Put the umbrella in the hands of the tent and walk across the threshold to the lobby.

Next to the fireplace in the lobby, there are many guests who gather to keep warm. Some of them had towels distributed by the hotel in their hands. It seems that he came in to avoid rain when passing by.

Kant stood there and hesitated for a while, but he still planned to go back to the room and sort out. Then he said to the hotel dormitory that was next to him, "I'll go back to my room and rest. If Bandak and his party return to the store, please tell them: I'm waiting upstairs."

"Okay." The accountant nodded cautiously and responded.

"Thank you." After Kant left this sentence, he turned and left.

The account room saw Kant walk up the stairs, raised his hand to recruit a waiter, and said, "Hurry up and prepare some hot tea and pastries and deliver them to Lord Kant's room."

"Yes," the waiter agreed.

Immediately after Kant returned to the guest room, he changed his wet clothes and put on dry cotton clothes. Just when he was going to take a bath in the bathroom to rest for a while, there was a knock on the door.

"Your Highness Kant." the waiter whispered softly.

Kant walked to the entrance, opened the door lock, and asked the waiter in front of him, "What's the matter?"

Instead of approaching the house immediately, the waiter brought steaming pastries and teapots to Kant's eyes and said, "This is sent by the accountant master to remind you to remember to drink hot tea and keep warm. "

Kant stood by the door, hesitated for a moment, barely took the afternoon tea, and said, "Well, put these two things on the account."

"No, no." The waiter quickly waved his hand: "This is a free gift from the shop."

Kant heard the words and walked out of the room door, looked at the lobby on the first floor, and then responded: "Why didn't the guests on the first floor? If you don't keep the bill for me. I won't take these two things. "

The waiter stood awkwardly and didn't know what to do: if he received Kant's lunch money, he would definitely be scolded by the accountant.

The two stalemate for a while, and finally, Kant sighed and compromised, "Forget it, this has nothing to do with you. Could you please tell me to Mr. Treasury: I will take the refreshments this time, but later Don't do such unnecessary things."

"Yes, thank you Master." The waiter nodded as if he were forgiven.

"Well, I'm thankful for you. Please walk slowly." Kant nodded slightly, walked to the entrance, and closed the door.

The waiter froze for a while, thinking silently in his heart: How should Kant's words be less reciting to the accountant.

The hand of the clock hanging on the wall points to six o'clock in the afternoon.

Kant estimated in his heart that it was still three hours before Bandak and the others returned to the hotel.

After drinking a sip of hot tea, he returned to his bedroom, intending to sleep for a while.

The carriage seat is really not a place suitable for sleeping. Kant now feels that his neck is very stiff, and the tiredness in his body only spreads on his limbs when he lies on the soft and light bed.

Kant slept peacefully.

Chapter 855: Inspection without progress

Bandak walking on the street frowned.

Because of the rain, there are not many pedestrians on the street. The guild also became very deserted.

At lunchtime, he took several soldiers with him to sit down in the teahouse on the corner of the street to exchange information about the street in each other's hands.

"Did you find anything?" Bandak asked first.

The soldiers present looked at each other and shook their heads in silence.

Bandak exhaled and said, "It doesn't matter, today is the first day of the operation. As long as you continue to observe, there should be results."

Pike's portraits are all over the streets and alleys. The goblin soldiers made such a big movement. The dark side organization should only take action.

"I don't know if anyone else has received any news." A soldier raised his head in frustration and said to the soldiers around him.

"We can't meet other people until we return to the hotel at night. Maybe they are also expecting progress on our side." Bandak shook his head and said, "It's about three hours before the shift is changed. Time. Don’t act separately. Every two people are in a group and have a look after each other. Be careful about what is happening on the street."

"Yes!" the soldiers answered neatly.

It only took about half an hour for lunch. After Bendak and his party settled their bills, they walked out of the teahouse with umbrellas. Those who continue to patrol the streets, it is a pity that until the crowd returns on the evening, everyone still has nothing to gain.

Bandak stood at the door of the hotel and watched the night soldiers leave, quietly waiting for Able and his men to return to the hotel.

Able is responsible for commanding the ranks of elven soldiers, because they can perceive the changes in the street from the spell level compared to the soldiers of the human race, so at this moment Bandak pins today's hopes on this pedestrian who has not returned to the hotel. Body.

"Bandak!" Able called Bandak's name immediately after crossing the threshold and said, "How do you sit here? What about the other soldiers?"

"They went back to the room and rested." Bandak looked up and asked, "Able, is there any news on your side?"

"No." Able said with a sigh: "Today's inspection did not find clues related to the dark forces."

A look of disappointment appeared on Bandak’s face and said, “Then we will continue to find tomorrow.”

"Bandak, today is just the first day, don't worry." Able comforted: "We will definitely pick up Pick, let him hand over the antidote, and apologize to you."

"Well," Bandak nodded slightly. "Mr. Accountant told me just now: After His Royal Highness Kant told us both to go back to the store, we went to meet him first. We hurried up."

"Okay." Able nodded, then took off his cloak and wrapped it in his hands.

Bandak stood up, left the cafe, and led Able to the stairs.

Kant was still asleep at this time, and he woke up immediately after hearing the knock on the door. He grabbed a coat and put it on his body, and walked to the main hall of the guest room.

The three have stayed together for so long, and have some understanding of each other's habits. For example now: Kant can immediately discern the sound of Bandak’s knocking on the door. After twisting the door lock for the two, he turned around and walked toward the fireplace without looking back.

"His Royal Highness Kant." Bandak greeted: "I'm sorry, I made you rest."

"It doesn't matter, I have been sleeping very lightly." Kant glanced at the two men standing at the entrance and said, "How come you are all wet by the rain, please go and change your clothes. Be careful and catch cold."

"Yes, yes," Abel agreed in a row.

Then he stepped on the rain boots and walked indoors. The water on the rain boots dropped one puddle after another on the stone floor.

When the two men sorted everything out and returned to the main hall. Kant is making tea.

"Sit down." Kant said, "You have been busy outside for a day, don't know how it is going?"

When Abel and Bandak faced this problem, they looked slightly helpless.

"For the time being, no clues have been found yet." Bandak replied first.

"Well." Kant nodded and continued to ask the two of them: "Have you all seen the addresses I marked before?"

"Go." Able said. "It's just that there was a sudden rainstorm today. Everyone seemed to choose to stay behind closed doors. When we were patrolling the streets, we didn't find any special spiritual fluctuations or strange people."

"Tomorrow you will send someone to the gate of the city to see." Kant thought for a while and commanded: "Shortly after the action of the goblin tribe, the people of the dark organization want to contact Pique and should send someone to sneak out of the city.

"Yes, Your Highness." Able and Bandak looked at each other and answered.

"Although there is no progress on this matter, I found another thing related to it today." Kant turned the topic to his experience in the exhibition hall today and detailed the process Retold it to Bandak and Able.

After Kant finished speaking, Bandak was silent for a while, and said: "The original purpose of the dark forces was to compete for the three crystals that were brought to the island hundreds of years ago."

"They not only want status, but also want to strengthen the status of strength." Kant commented.

"In this case, our pedestrians are indeed easy to be the nails in the eyes of those people. After all, their long-prepared activities are destroyed by us." Able said: "Pike wants to use Bandak to control us, don't we What other actions do they have next?"

"I think that Pique should be uncontrolled in the dark side organization." Kant analyzed: "But today's situation leads to a conclusion that the dark side organization indulged his approach, and has been sorting out the follow-up for him. Otherwise, with the summoning power of the pygmies on this island, it is impossible for so many days to have no news at all."

Two or three days have passed since Kant and Able went to meet the dwarf patriarch.

But there was still no news from there.

It is said that with the power of Pique alone, he can escape from the Tianluodi net jointly laid by the dwarf and the goblin. Kant does not believe that the other party has such patience.

"So what action will the dark side take next?" Bandak asked.

"Before they wanted to walk around in a nest of three, and we were found to be flawed. I thought they wouldn't continue to be so public." Eber said: "I think if they want to take action in the short term, they should be planning to break one by one. After all, the temptation of spar is too great, these people should not give up against these three races."

Chapter 856: Dinner with a strange atmosphere

"Eber's idea is roughly the same as my analysis." Kant said: "It's just that we need to gather more information to find out who their first target is."

"This can be given to us," Able promised. "The soldiers can search for news related to this while watching the movement in the city."

"Well." Kant nodded. "But you still have to pay more attention to the movements in the city. Any news must be reported to me immediately."

"Yes!" Bandak replied with Able.

"Bandak, your body, is that all right?" Kant said worriedly.

"No problem." Bandak said vowedly.

Able glanced at him, and after all he didn't say anything.

"Today's task is over. Hurry up and take a hot bath. Have a good rest. Wait a minute to go to the restaurant to eat together." Kant asked: "Bandak, remember to arrange the guy who cooks before the meal for you Cook medicine."

"Got it, Your Highness." Bandak agreed.

When Able and Bandak got up and went back to their bedrooms, Kant walked outside the door of the guest room and found a waiter to discuss with him the dishes tonight.

At dinner time, Kant and Able came to the restaurant early.

After that, the soldiers who came will walk to the table where the two are, and after greetings, they will go to their place and sit down.

When the dining table in the restaurant was full, Bandak arrived late. Kant and Able have heard the news from all the soldiers.

"I'm sorry, I'm late. Haven't you delayed your meal?" Bandak hurried to Kant's table and asked apologetically.

"It's okay, it's just a pre-dinner drink now." Kant shook his head gently and responded.

"What happened?" Able asked immediately after Bandak was seated.

"It's nothing," Bandak waved his hand and said, "It's just that when I took the medicine to the back kitchen, someone told me that the place to cook the medicine is actually in the backyard. Now there is no spare manpower in the buddy. A trip."

"You have been staying in the backyard and are busy now?" Able asked strangely.

"Yeah," Bandak took a sip of water and nodded. "There is a hot water place in the backyard, which is made of firewood. I finally found a clean pot and poured the herbs into the stove. In the big pot on the stage."

"This guy in the kitchen is really boring." Able said with a lip, and said, "Forget it, we won't be able to stay here anyway any longer."

"It's okay, as long as you haven't missed the opening meal." Bandakar said indifferently. "After all, this cook is really busy."

"By the way, just before you arrived, the soldiers who returned to the store reported all the news in their hands to His Majesty Kant and me." Able said cheerfully: "I didn't expect that we were caught The news was discovered by the soldiers in Xicheng."

"What news?" Bandak took a deep breath and asked.

"Someone found that the "corrupt" union in West City has been secretly selling a homemade drug to the residents of the town. The soldiers happened to witness the delivery of people and buyers in the guild today, and heard the skin from their conversation. Gram's name," Able introduced in detail.

"The soldiers stopped the group of sellers and asked them for the truth." Kant took Ebour's words and continued: "It was discovered that Pique turned out to be a raw material supplier of drugs produced by this guild."

"What is the raw material provided by Pique?" Bandak froze for a moment, then asked.

"This is a trade secret and we have no way of knowing it." Able glanced at Bandak and said, "The key point of this matter is that there are people in this city who keep in constant contact with Pique. And this contact person , Has been locked by our soldiers."

"From the point of view of Pique's solitary nature, he will definitely come to hand over personally." Kant said: "At that time, we will have the opportunity to catch him."

"It turns out so." Bandak nodded silently.

"What's the matter with you? How do you look so depressed?" Able asked doubtfully: "Your Majesty Kant and I are both happy for you when we know the news."

"I don't know." Bandak grinned reluctantly. "It just didn't feel so reassuring."

"The date of delivery between Pique and the guild's internal staff is set at the beginning of each month, and the time is not fixed." Kant looked at Bandak strangely and said, "It is now the end of March. Our only chance is At the beginning of April. If you wait until May, by then, Bandak’s condition should be out of control."

"Your Majesty Kant and I are preparing to transfer most of the manpower to West City in advance to prepare for this time's action plan. Now only your opinion is left, what do you think?" Able asked.

"I think it's better to leave it as it is first." Bandak said in silence for a while.

"Why?" Kant asked lightly.

"As you have analyzed before, Pique's behavior is ultimately constrained by the decision of the dark organization. We need to search for more news in the city in order to make changes in time." Bandak said.

Able and Kant did not reply to Bandak immediately, but thought for a while in silence, then Kant nodded: "Okay, just what you said."

"Huh." Bandak nodded with relief.

At this time ~www.novelmtl.com~ The guy in the kitchen walked into the restaurant with dishes and served for each table.

Able still seemed to be suspicious of Bandak’s decision, and even the deceased who had given away the food walked to him without any awareness.

The waiter could only try to walk to Bandak and trouble him to help with the plate.

After the set was over, the waiter said to Bandak before leaving: "Thank you Lord Bandak."

Bandak was stunned, looked up at the back of the waiter in doubt, and silently said, "How does he know my name?"

Kant looked at the two of them at the table, one with a sad face, one with a dull look, and lifted his glass of helplessly, saying: "Since sitting at the table, don't keep thinking about business or anything. Come, drink this cup After drinking, let's start eating."

"Yes." Abel regained his mind and promised. Then, following Kant's action, he raised his glass and sipped it out.

Because Bandak has been taking medicine recently, he has replaced the wine with water to complete the pre-meal ceremony.
