Fang Yi was waiting for the old man to answer his questions and answer his questions. It was almost certain that the lord of Xingmu City had an entanglement with this matter tonight, but the other party broke up so much that Fang Yi was very puzzled: What is the benefit of Charlie doing this? Are you not afraid that that big guy Quinny turned against him?

"It's not that Old Charlie doesn't dare to turn against Xue Shancheng, but he doesn't want to."

Galbo took off his glasses, took out a soft cloth from his pocket, wiped the clean lenses carefully, and told Fang Yi that the things here were probably not that simple.

"Xingmu City is not a city of Xueshan City, nor is it controlled by Xueshan City. Why did Old Charlie care about Xueshan City so much about the attitude? Because it is Xingmu City's largest trading partner now, no doubt about it."

"You mean?" Fang Yi seemed to have grasped some clue in his mind and asked with a frown.

"I don't know what old Charlie is thinking. Even on the surface, the gang of robbers of unknown origins are slaughtering civilians tonight. Do he think that the druid lord of Xueshan City is blind? Charlie is not stupid, otherwise he would not have been sitting in the lord's seat for so many years."

Fang Yi listened to Galbo analyzing the current situation one by one, and the clues in his mind became clearer. However, immediately, Fang Yi thought of a key question, "This is not right. If he simply used the fat man Li Xu's incident, there was no need to do this now, it would be obvious that the loss would be more than worth the loss?"

"Yes, it's not because of the previous incident this time." Galbo looked back at the stairs on the second floor and confirmed that Xiao Xiaou had not eavesdropped. Then he said, "Do you still remember the map I got back from Lishu?"

Tsk! Of course I remember. Fang Yi couldn't help but complain. He was originally here to find you to repair the map, but he was hacked by you and didn't touch half of the mission clue. How could I forget it?

Seeing Fang Yi nodded, Galbo directly ignored the thief's teasing eyes and continued. "I suspect that Li Xu had made rubbings for that map fragment. Although you blow up half of the castle, Old Charlie couldn't say that he had found the rubbings of the map from other places."

"Can someone else repair the map here besides you?" Fang Yi's eyes narrowed. If this is true, wouldn't his treasure be about to fly?

"Of course not." Galbo waved his hand conceitedly. "I don't know anything else. In this regard, there is no one on the Dragon Coast who is more capable than me. I mean, although the fragments of that map are incomplete, they can still read some information."

"Ah!?" The old man's sentence was even more lethal than the previous one. Fang Yi was immediately shocked and jumped three feet high when he heard it. "You mean that the old guy found the treasure? What's going on..."

"Who said he found the treasure?" Galbo glared at Fang Yi, who was shocked, and once again gave his contemptuous eyes to the thief. "You will be red-eyed when you mention the treasure. The information on that fragment is limited, but those who have studied the geography of Xingmu City can easily conclude that the west side of Xingmu City, no, it should be said that there is an unknown mineral deposit underground in the western part of Xingmu City!"

"Kill people to make room for mining veins? Damn, won't he let his people move away?" Fang Yi also had some understanding of the cruelty and ruthlessness of the ancient lords, but slaughtering the people for such an absurd reason made Fang Yi feel a little more incredible than anger.

"Just kill the chicken to scare the monkey," Galbo's heart seemed to be as heavy as a stone, and his tone was full of hatred. "And not only are there tens of thousands of residents in the slums to the west of Xingmu City, but also some wealthy businessmen and large areas of arable land in the south. How could that old man Charlie spend nearly a year helping the 'untlets' move?"

"Besides, where to move? Expose these people to the noses of beasts and monsters, and they also need to spend manpower and material resources to protect them and build new cities. Who will protect Charlie's gold, silver and treasures? Charlie is crazy!" Galboyue said the atmosphere, and his words were already filled with the rare hostility.

Fang Yi slowly calmed down, but even if there were mineral veins here, so what? Are there few mineral veins nearby? They are just sporadic small ore, which is not a climate at all.

"Can it be the Mithril vein?" Fang Yi thought of a possibility and asked quickly.

Galbo chased his gray beard, stared at the shaking phantom left by the candle on the table, and did not speak immediately.

Seeing that Galbo was not moving, Fang Yi was also in deep thought. This matter must be clarified. The revenge of these innocent civilians must be avenged, but Old Charlie's actions this time were too abnormal and always made people feel uneasy: What is his purpose?

"The location of Xingmu City is the eastern plain of the Dragon Coast. Not to mention Mithril, this plain does not even have a large iron ore. Otherwise, the ore here would not be as dependent on maritime imports."

Galbo thought for a while before he spoke slowly, and expressed his speculation, "Take a step back, even if there is a small Mithril mine, so what? First, Xingmucheng does not have the strength to protect this mineral vein, and second,... I gave up my long-term trade with Xueshan City for a dead body? With that rigid druid character, Old Charlie will never want to make a penny from Xueshan City in his life."

"At this point, we thought that something unreasonable or even impossible has happened," Fang Yi stared at the jumping flames at the top of the candle, and his brain was spinning rapidly. "So, will this guy have any helpers?"

"The only helper I can think of is the pirates on the sea of ​​Falling Stars," Galbo sneered, with a full irony in his words.

***

"Young man, if you insist on interfering in this matter, I will certainly thank you for the dead, but you must also remember my warning: You may lose your life - and at the same time you will not get any reward."

"Well...but, at least after some people wake up, I will have the courage to look her in the eyes."

After leaving Galbo's residence, Fang Yi rushed back to Xingmu City without stopping. Recalling the conversation with the old man just now, Fang Yi smiled - in addition to rewards, there are many other things in the game that are worthy of our players' experience.

At this time, the city was filled with bright torches, and the players stimulated by blood and corpses were still chasing the robbers running away in the streets and alleys. Fang Yi looked at the city guards who appeared on the streets with bright armor, and sneered in his heart and turned directly into the shadow of the alley.

The prosperity of Voyager Street is among the best in Xingmu City. There is the largest Mermaid Song Tavern in the city; through the straight alley, next to the Adventurer Hall, and all kinds of blacksmith shops and grocery shops are available.

The most important thing is that a small square was uniquely vacated near the end of the street, which was specially set up for players who set up stalls and do business. Therefore, this street is very lively during the day, and most players who appear at night cannot go out to cut monsters, and they all like to come here to visit the night market.

This place was particularly lively tonight. The tragedy that happened in the slums certainly aroused the players' anger, but for most people, it was just a sudden event in the game. The thieves who fled wildly were raised by the players and were soon wiped out.

After the battle, the people who calmed down realized that they were not sleepy at all, so they came here to visit the night market, and it seemed that the girls had become a good choice.

Fang Yi walked through the crowded crowd, picked a small shop, bought a decorative robe and draped it on his body, covering up his exquisite equipment.

When he arrived at the location Xiao Xiaou mentioned, the intersection of the old leather boots alley and the street. Fang Yi looked around and thought that if it were in the past, he would have to hold a torch and observe carefully for a while before he could find this dark corner, but now it is much easier to have night vision skills.

The secret door was hidden behind a shack. The smell of fishy smell made Fang Yi wonder if it was occupied by a pork seller during the day. The tilted downward steps were more than three feet deep, and the tight wooden door only exposed a knee-length height on the ground - did Xingmucheng start to crack down on the casino again?

In the Feren continent, casinos and brothels (of course you can't see them in the game) are the top two entertainment venues. Fang Yi has never heard of any main city that catches gambling. Why is it so hidden here?

Fang Yi didn't think too much about it, so he knocked on the door panel when he went up. Soon, the wooden board at the entrance to the door was lifted up with a "slam" sound, revealing a pair of huge yellow-brown eyes.

"Who are you looking for?"

"My friend introduced me to me, and he said...he said you have a lot of money to make?" Fang Yi pretended to be frightened, reached out and patted a large bag of gold coins that had been prepared on his waist, and said stutteringly.

The wooden board was immediately covered, and Fang Yi clearly heard the other party muttering Yang Gu, and then the thick wooden door was pulled open, "Come in!"

Fang Yi laughed in his heart, pressing his wallet around his waist on his hand, and squeezed into the crack in the door that only one person could penetrate.

There was only a narrow passage at the entrance of the eyes, and the dim candlelight did not affect Fang Yi's sight. Fang Yi turned his head and looked at the big guy next to him, thinking that he was indeed not a human being. The other party was a strong body that was more tall than Fang Yi, staring at a huge head, with the yellow-brown eyeballs shining in the darkness, staring at Fang Yi with the look of looking at the rookie.

Lizardman, except for being a little stupid in mind, this thing has a rough combat capability of about one level higher than that of ordinary human soldiers. It is understandable to be placed here to guard the door.

The lizardman reached out and patted the shoulder of the thin human in front of him. Of course, Fang Yi "can't dodge". Looking at the human being who was slapped by him, the big guy covered with scales smiled, revealing his sharp teeth, and his words showed a tone of disdain.
