Destiny Thief

Chapter 6 The Umpton Mine I
The night fell, and a silvery white moon rose on the edge of the light blue sky.

Miss Radiya came to the Umpton Mine, to be precise, she was standing in the middle of the wide flat where the ore was piled up in the mine.But now there are no brown ores in this place, only rows of houses.

Squinting her eyes, this is a habitual little movement of Radia to hide her emotions. To be honest, Radia was shocked, if it wasn't for the noisy guys around her, including those vicious bandits during the day and a few jumping and shouting As a child, Radia even suspected that she had come to a small town in the southern border of the kingdom.

wrong.

This place seems to be more beautiful than those small towns in the south, or in other words, has more characteristics.

There are several neat rows of independent small houses slanting along the trend of the terrain. A few dwarf pine trees are planted in front of each small house. The entire wall is full, very similar to the towns that belonged to the forest elves that Miss Radia once visited - but unlike the tree holes and wooden houses where the elves live, the small house seems to be made of some hard mud Miss Radia has just stretched out her delicate hands to touch these rough house walls. These materials do not seem to be ordinary soil, nor are they like the stones commonly used by nobles to build castles.

What could it be?

Miss Radiya looked curiously while thinking, and walked forward one small house after another. The uneven coldness from the soles of her feet made her lower her head, and it occurred to her that the pair of deer on her feet The leather boots may have worn too much.After slightly stamping her feet, Miss Radiya took off her buckskin boots and let her smooth soles step on the ground. Only then did she discover the source of the tactile sensation on the soles of her feet—the small round stones embedded in the "stone slab".These colorful little stones are like seashells buried in the sand by the beach, forming a curved ribbon.These ribbons stretched to the door of each small house, and between each row of small houses, like forked branches.

Is this the street here?
As if she had discovered something interesting, Miss Radia took out a roll of parchment from her bosom and put it on her lap as if by magic, then took out a quill pen, squatted down and began to write something .

"Miss Radia, how do you feel here?"

While Miss Radia was immersed in writing, the light suddenly dimmed, and a tall figure appeared in front of her eyes. It was Glo——Glo, who had returned to the Umpton Mine, had already made some simple arrangements. A dirty leather armor was replaced by a clean short cloth gown, and the bearded chin was neatly tidied up. He was greeting the girl in front of him with a smile.

Radiya looked up and saw the figure clearly, but she suddenly had a little doubt—is this still the bandit leader?Although the man in front of him was not handsome, he had a gentle smile, just like those young noble knights he had met during his travels. It was really difficult to connect him with the vicious bandit leader.

"not bad."

Responding subconsciously, Miss Radiya straightened up quickly, quickly put away the parchment and quill in her hand, as if thinking of something, her little face turned red, and said in a low voice:

"Thank you, Mr. Bandit."

"Glo, please, thank you."

Reiterating his name again, Glo smiled and stretched out his hand as an invitation gesture, "Welcome to Ampton Paradise, Miss Radia Klein. I saw what you were recording just now, it is about here Is it?"

"Yep."

Miss Radiya nodded, "This place seems to be completely different from other places in Nogo. It is very clean and beautiful... Well, such as the street, such as the house, such as the pipe... By the way, the pipe is What are you doing?"

Miss Radia was talking about the water pipe on the mountain wall - it is located in the mountainous mountains east of Nogo. The Ampton Mine is located on a higher ground and has unique fractured rock formations and sandy soil. It's hard to stay hydrated, so no creek springs or anything.Logically speaking, the lack of water sources makes it difficult to establish a livable place for human beings.But after finally finding a suitable home, Glo had no intention of giving up. After taking his gang members around the mine, Glo finally discovered stagnant water deep in the closed mines. .What happened next, under the authority of Glo, although they did not understand the meaning of certain actions, the companions still followed the instructions, so this channel was born.

Just like the water pipe in the previous life.However, since there are no cast iron and high-strength plastic pipes here, Glo used some other materials, and for the convenience of maintenance, they did not bury them.

This is also one of the few proud works after Glo came into this world.

When Miss Radia asked about this thing, she just scratched Glo's itch. Out of consideration for maintaining her demeanor, Glo abruptly held back the urge to eloquently, with a very understated expression:

"A very ordinary water supply pipe, nothing special... Such things are very common in Genting City."

"Hey! Have you ever been to Yunding City?"

The three words "Yunding City" seemed to have a special magic power, which immediately attracted Radia's attention, and a bright light flashed in the young lady's pupils.

Faced with Miss Radia's sudden question, Glo suddenly regretted that he had slipped his mouth - he thought of his current identity, a farmer, an ordinary bandit in the troubled times of the Northland, how could he have a relationship with Ailandi? It is related to Genting City, the holy land of mages in the sub-continent.In fact, "Glo" has never left Nogo since his mother's womb, and hasn't even been to Karthus once.

But in his previous life, he really traveled all over the continent in that game, and he went to Yunding City more than once. For a certain period of time, he worked as a peddler in Yunding City in order to accumulate Rael. Selling alchemy materials to Faye local tyrants, he knows most of the things in Yunding City very well.

But these have nothing to do with the current owner of this body, a bandit leader in Beidinogo.

Could it be explained that he is a time traveler?

Glo laughed and said haha, "I've seen related descriptions in books... haha... It's a pity that I don't know where the book was lost."

Have you seen it in a book?

Is it really?

Miss Radia looked suspiciously at Glo again.

The bandit leader in front of him seems to be hiding some mystery.

……

Northland, Nogo, Karthus, Lord's Mansion.

"Although the kingdom is in a difficult situation, please cheer up everyone!"

Nogo lord Adam Aronius sat on a tall wooden chair with a serious expression, and his eyes occasionally shone between his gazes.Although he is about to enter his twilight years, his ruddy complexion and straight back make it difficult for people to associate him with the word aging.

His knuckles tapped lightly on the armrests of the chairs, and around a long wooden table, two dozen nobles from the city sat in two rows, but all of these nobles shrugged their heads and kept silent, except for Adam? Lennius' voice made the venue very quiet.

This is a routine Karthus noble meeting.Since the end of the Sixth Eta War, the entire Nogo Territory has fallen into chaos, and the original monthly routine recall has also been changed to once a fortnight.

From the beginning of the meeting, the Nogo nobles who attended have remained silent. Faced with the deteriorating situation of the territory, the souls of these nobles seemed to have been stripped of their former glory, and their eyes were dull. In his heart, he longed for a good night's sleep on the chair with the soft fox fur back.

In previous meetings, it wasn't that no nobles made some suggestions or action plans.

But it hardly played any role, except to toss the few remaining noble forces in Nogo's territory, which attracted the punishment of the city lord.

As a result, the nobles gradually learned to protect themselves wisely, for fear of getting into trouble if they spoke.

The atmosphere in the room is like the current Kingdom of Elantra, gloomy.

The lord Adam Aronius expressed his anger at this.
