Mage Joan

Chapter 42: Solve a case

The night was thick, the moonlight was sparse, the silver moonlight shrouded the earth, and the broad river surface shimmered with sparkling waves. There was no other movement on both sides of the river bank except for the low roar from the flowing water impacting the waterwheel.

Qiao An looked towards the river near the waterwheel. Without finding the figure of the goblin, he turned to the little tree goblin and asked her in elven language: "Mila, can you call the two goblins hiding under the river?"

Xiao Shujing blushed and nodded gently, walking to the river and singing softly. The singing voice is like an invisible string twirling in the air, so slender and soft, as if it will be blown off by the night wind at any time, yet it is so long and resilient and enduring.

Two small waves of water appeared on the surface of the river. The first thing that came out of the water was the long green grass-like hair. Two small heads appeared in the depths of the waves, looking curiously at the Mela who sang alone on the shore.

"Yo, it's Nixie!" Kandy watched the changes on the water, his eyes glowing with excitement.

The two Nikkis quickly swam to the shore, first carefully observed the surrounding environment, and did not seem to find Joan and Condy hiding in the shadows of the distance, and boldly ventured out of the water to shore, and laughed and talked around Mila, twittering. Non-stop.

"This is also a Mu language?" Joan asked Kandy in a low voice.

"Mu language is correct, although the accent is a little weird." Conti explained with a smile. "Nicki lives in the waters and usually communicates more with aquatic creatures. Compared to the rarely used Mu language, they say ' 'Shui language' must be much more proficient.

Joan nodded, his eyes wide open. A small fairy family has so many languages ​​and dialects. If you want to systematically learn the languages ​​of the fairies, I am afraid it will take a lot of energy.

Xiaoshu Jingmila and her aquatic relatives seem to have reached a certain consensus, holding a Nikki in one hand and walking towards the direction of Joan's hiding.

"Let's go and meet Mila's new friend." Conti pulled Joan out of the shadows, waved to the goblins walking across, and greeted them in Muzu.

"Good night, son of nature!"

Joan jotted down Condy's pronunciation and greeted the nickies with her tone.

"Good evening, human friends!" Nick responded with a grin, and the female goblin with the shell hairpin repeated in lingua franca.

Joan sighed in relief. It turned out that these two goblins could speak human language, and the next communication was more convenient.

After some self-introduction, Joanne now knows that the two Nikkis are a pair of younger brothers. The older sister's name is Sissi, and the younger brother's name is Jerry. He originally lived in a lake in the dense forest on the upper Delin River. Settle in the river near Delin town.

"Sisi, Jerry, why did you leave your hometown and move here to settle down?" Kandy asked confusedly. "If I remember correctly, human towns do not conform to your living habits."

"This is also impossible!" Jerry's face was depressed. "The lake where we originally lived was occupied by water ghosts. The evil undead creatures not only robbed our beautiful homeland, killed our people, but also polluted nearby. The waters of the village forced the surviving tribes to move to distant waters. Some tribes went to the upper reaches of the Delin River to find a new home. My sister and I did not want to leave our hometown too far, so we traveled downstream along the river and found the environment near this town. Not bad, just stayed for a while."

"The river in Delin Town is very clear, and there are plenty of fish, shrimp and water plants for us to eat. The only bad thing is the big house on the shore, which thundered from the morning to the night, making our ears noisy. Pain." Sissy pointed to the riverside wrought iron workshop, pouting her mouth in disgust.

After hearing Sissi's complaint, Joan wanted to laugh but couldn't laugh.

The "thunder" that Sissi said was actually the noise from the waterwheel driving the forging hammer to hit the steel. Sissy doesn't like the roaring noise, so with Nick's nature, it is natural to try to destroy the source of the noise-the transmission of the hydraulic forging hammer.

Having figured this out, Joan's previous questions were also solved.

Sissi and Jerry didn't have enough energy to destroy the transmission, and they could only use the spell to charm Tom to destroy them. When the transmission was repaired, the hydraulic forging hammer roared, and the younger brother of Nicky was very troubled. He reapplied the old tricks again, and once again used the charm of humans to destroy the transmission by the hands of fake Tom or other blacksmiths. After repeated so many times, he finally angered Flint Anvil and posted a notice offering a reward to catch the murderer who destroyed the machine.

"Sissi, Jerry, it's not very appropriate for you to do this." Kandy poses as a big sister, and criticizes the younger brother Niek Jing gently and seriously. "Delin is a homeland for human development. This river beach belongs to The townspeople who settled here before, no matter whether you like the human way of life or whether you agree with human industrial civilization, do not have the right to break into other people’s homes and destroy them without permission."

Sissi and Jerry glanced at each other, and the two beautiful little faces showed shame.

After being silent for a while, Sissy looked up at Kandy, with hope in her eyes: "Sister Druid, we actually don’t want to be an enemy of humans. If you can help us drive away those evil water ghosts, Jerry and I will be very Willing to leave Delin town and return to the undisturbed lake deep in the jungle to rebuild his home."

"This..." Kandy looked at Joan hesitantly, consulting his opinion with his eyes.

"How many water ghosts are there?" Joan asked Sissy.

"There are almost twenty." Sissi was panic-stricken, apparently feeling terrified of the robbers who seized their homeland.

Joan frowned. Water ghost is the abbreviation of "aquatic ghoul", a cruel and cunning undead creature. With his current strength, he can cope with up to one or two water ghosts. Even with the addition of Kandy, who has 4 druid levels, he can't fight so many water ghosts. As for Myra and Nick's brothers and sisters, it's a pity that fairies are not good at fighting head-to-head, and most of the elite spells are not effective against undead creatures. It really can't help much.

"Joan, I know this is very dangerous, but Sissi and Jerry are in such a pitiful situation, and they must always try to help them." Conti's words showed heartfelt sympathy, "You and me, take Jie again Mi and Gray, do you still have a chance to deal with twenty water ghosts?"

Joan was silent, but his brows were tighter. From the perspective of the comparison between the enemy and the enemy, Kandy's vision is reasonable. However, traveling with Gray is too risky. In case it is found by the townspeople, it will be troublesome. Unless he is compelled, he does not want to involve Gray.

"Big Brother! My sister and I will not let you help you in vain!" Jerry understands humanity better than his sister, and understands the principle of "no benefit is not early". "At the bottom of the lake in our hometown, we can occasionally collect a very large person. Pearl clams, if you are willing to help me and my sister drive away water ghosts, I will give you the pearls collected at the bottom of the lake as a thank you!"

Sissi is not stupid, noting that among the two of Kandy and Joan, although the Druid girl seems stronger than the little mage, the latter is the one who has the right to make decisions, and begs him Conti helps, as if trying to persuade Joan.

"If you are not interested in pearls, venerable mage, maybe you will be interested in two other magic-related treasures of our Nikki family."
