Chapter 591 580. Luke's news
Suldak rushed to the security station, and Andrew just placed a large piece of roasted camel meat on the dining table, and then he and the ogre feasted on it.
Aphrodite seldom dined with Andrew. She believed that the half-elf archer had such a youthful and beautiful face, which should have a lot to do with her daily diet, so she chose to eat the same food as Samira.
As a half-elf, Samira has resumed the eating habits of elves after she became financially free.
She likes to have an apple in the morning, a fish for lunch, and basically fruit for dinner.
As soon as Suldak entered the restaurant, he saw Andrew and Gulitham grilling meat again early in the morning, while the two ladies were sitting across the table eating apples.
Luke sat quietly on the bench next to him. Suldak didn't ask him if he had eaten. He cut a piece of camel meat with a knife and put it on a plate, inviting him to sit on the table too.
He himself poured a glass of water, sat next to Luke, and asked him, "What do you want me to do, and you need to come back from the mine?"
Luke will cut off a piece of camel meat, put the dipping sauce into his mouth, and say vaguely: "Dark, two kobold slaves found a sulfur cave upstream at the mine..."
Suldak was slightly taken aback, and said, "You mean that the kobold slaves discovered a sulfur mine in the upper reaches of the lava river?"
"That's right, and there are traces of salamanders in that mine..." Luke replied, struggling to swallow a large piece of camel meat.
Before Luke could finish speaking, the ogre Gullitum stood up all of a sudden.
"Captain, let me handle this matter, I am best at dealing with those big guys!"
The ogre wiped his oily mouth with his big hand and said loudly.
Probably he is so excited because his mind is full of salamanders.
"Sit down and eat your own!" Suldak ordered the ogre Gullitum.
Turning his head and saying to Luke: "Luke, you came back this time specifically for this matter... tell me what you think?"
Luke wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, and said: "We conducted preliminary exploration at the entrance of the cave. The sulfur mine is very rich in resources. In addition to sulfur, there are also some spars in the mine. Salamander, I didn’t let the kobold slaves go too deep, but you can go and see if I can develop that mine when I come back this time, the sulfur ore reserves in the mine are extremely rich!”
It turned out that Luke was worried about the salamanders in the mine, so he didn't dare to explore the sulfur mine easily, so he ran back to move reinforcements.
Suldak is not sure how this sulfur mine is related to the sulfur mine that he and Selina discovered at the beginning. According to the location Luke said, it is probably not the same mine, but since the kobold slave Going backward along the lava river and discovering a sulfur mine, it means that the sulfur ore that is conveniently collected near the sulfur river is likely to be mined, otherwise the kobold slaves would not have traveled so far.
Now that the sulfur ore trade is on the right track, and the large amount of income brought by the sulfur mine maintains the high cost of infrastructure in Wall Village, Suldak feels that the sulfur mine must maintain normal sulfur mining. quantity.
"Okay. We will leave tomorrow morning, and everyone will go to the mine to have a look." Suldak then made a decision.
Luke saw that Suldak readily agreed, stood up from the table quickly, and said to Suldak:
"In that case, I will wait for you at the entrance of the village tomorrow morning..."
After speaking, Luke turned around and left the security station quickly.
…
Aphrodite, who was sitting across the dining table, heard Suldak say this, and said with some dissatisfaction: "Didn't you say that after dealing with those robbers, you still have to go to Hailansa City?"
Succubus Aphrodite's complexion has been getting better and better recently, and even when she frowns, she doesn't make people feel disgusted, especially those eyes, which seem to have some kind of spirituality.
Suldak just remembered that he had to go to Hailansa City to handle the funds for the security squadron, and this matter could not be delayed.
He hesitated for a moment before saying: "Luke must have discovered something, I need to go and see it myself to understand!"
Then he said to Aphrodite: "Didn't I say it last time... This time I allow you to go to Hailansa City by yourself, and I will draw a specific route for you. You can stay in the hotel near the square garden .When you arrive at the hotel in Hailansa City, let me know, and if you can, call me over. I need to go to the City Hall’s Quartermaster Office and the Guard Battalion to get the funds for the security squadron.”
Aphrodite did not expect Suldak to agree so readily.
With a smile on his face, eager to try, he said straightforwardly: "Okay, I'll clean up and leave now!"
Suldak hesitated a little, he took a deep look at Aphrodite.
"Don't worry, I won't cause you trouble, I promise!" Aphrodite promised quickly.
Suldak nodded and said:
"Okay, pay attention to safety along the way, avoid those magicians, don't do extreme things when conflicts arise, and call me if you can't handle it!"
"Got it!" Aphrodite heard the concern in Suldak's words, and her charming eyes showed a trace of tenderness: "Hey, Duck, it feels good to be cared about."
For this kind of succubi who are born with a devil figure and an angel face, 'charm' is their innate ability.
Surdak suddenly felt that race or not is really not that important...
"..."
In the sea of spiritual consciousness, the double-faced four-armed demon statue, which contained all the stars in its body, suddenly opened its eyes. It felt as if a holy beam entered his sea of consciousness, which made him wake up instantly.
Suldak said with clear eyes: "We are contract partners, right!"
"Yes, we are contract partners!" Aphrodite said happily, narrowing her eyes.
After breakfast, Aphrodite dressed herself up as a young knight, rode an ancient Bolai horse, and went to Hailansa City alone.
…
The next day, Suldak led the security team and followed Luke to the sulfur mine.
Accompanied by a team of four-wheeled trucks from Wall Village, they want to transport some of the sulfur mines stored there and return.
That afternoon, a cold north wind blew up in the barren land, and the horse under Suldak neighed, and he refused to go any further.
This barren land is covered with a foot-thick volcanic ash. The wind blows over the volcanic ash, twisting up strands of ash and flying all over the sky with the wind. Even wearing a mask, it seems to be pouring into the mouth and nose.
Suldak was riding on horseback, and the violent north wind swept the volcanic ash and raised dust all over the sky. Countless ash poured into his body along the collar and cuffs, making his body very uncomfortable. The volcanic ash made people feel uncomfortable. Dare to open your eyes.
Suldak raised his hand to temporarily stop the entire team. He made ten trucks form a big circle. When the wind and sand built up, he covered the trucks with tarpaulin, although the tarpaulin of the trucks still could not completely block the north wind. The blowing volcanic ash, but people hide in the truck, so they don't have to face the biting cold wind directly.
The strong wind blew the tarpaulin noisy, and Suldak settled everyone before he got into the cargo box.
It was impossible to even talk in this situation. All the faces were covered with thick scarves, and they curled up quietly waiting for the wind to end.
The temperature became very low, and the volcanic ash on the ground covered up all traces, and the volcanic ash was covered with a layer of crystal frost.
It took a day for the north wind to calm down. It took the team four and a half days to arrive at the sulfur mine after a two-day journey.
Moreover, a Gubolai horse in the convoy lost one eye because of the strong north wind. When Suldak arrived at the pustule mountain, under the strong wind, a large area of volcanic rock was covered in volcanic ash again. Below, under these volcanic rocks, there are still some dark rivers of lava hidden.
If you are not careful, you will step on the volcanic rock layer. It may be better if there is a cavity below. If there is a river of lava below, the moment the horseshoe steps in, it will be burned to ashes.
Fortunately, everyone did not encounter this situation. When they came to the sulfur mine, they saw six hundred kobold slaves scattered on both sides of a long lava river from a distance. The sulfur ore crystals on the edge of the rock wall were knocked off and put into the backpack behind him.
The sulfur mines that are the easiest to mine have been mined by kobold slaves. Now they have to hang their bodies on the river of lava with ropes to collect those sulfur mines, making mining extremely difficult.
No wonder Luke rushed back to Wall Village himself, and insisted on coming here by himself.
Suldak pulled the veil off his face and asked Luke, "Where is that sulfur mine?"
Luke pointed along the middle of the lava river and said, "It's over there!"
Suldak squinted his eyes and saw that it was not the same sulfur mine he had discovered.
After settling down the coachmen of the four-wheeled carriage and letting them rest for a while, Suldak led the security team members along the undulating volcanic rocks on the edge of the lava river, and soon climbed to the middle of the mountain...
