Heroes of the Invincible Undead
Chapter 2409: clues
"You want to know an overview of the territory? Of course you can."
Saying that, Leah took out a map from under the table, unfolded it, and placed it in front of Ender.
"Lord Rhode's rule covers the whole of Verning. Even in Diya, some areas take the initiative to bow to Lord Rhodes. Among them, Sao City is the most important existence and the main city of Lord Rhodes. ' Leah's fingers swiped across the map, making a rustling sound.
Ender nodded solemnly, Rhode's control force was larger than he expected.
"There are three ore veins under development around the city of Sao, one iron ore, one silver ore, and one crystal ore. Under the undead creatures digging day and night, the silver ore is about to be exhausted. Even so, those ore It is still not enough to meet the needs of Sau City, in addition to the regular supply of ore from other city owners in Verning, we will also buy a large amount from the Freelance Chamber of Commerce.”
"Do you have a corresponding record?" Ender asked proactively.
Leah nodded, and soon, the corpse witch, who was sorting out the books, brought dozens of sheepskin scrolls, and the transaction records about the ore were on it.
Ender quickly checked the contents of the parchment, and slowly, he frowned: "Strange"
"What's wrong?" Leah asked proactively.
"You built a large golem factory?" Ender asked rhetorically.
Leah shook her head: "No, why ask that?"
"If it weren't for the Golem Factory, with the scale of Sau City, these ores would not be able to be digested." Ender analyzed it. He pulled out a parchment scroll and carefully examined the contents. "According to the above date, the amount of ores you imported dropped sharply two months ago, which is in line with the limit of Sao City. Did you transport those ores to other places?"
Listening to Ender's analysis, Leah's complexion changed slightly. She didn't tell Ender that those ores were not all purchased for Sao City, but also included the part needed to develop the Water Elemental Plane.
Two months ago, it happened that Lord Rhodes discovered that the elemental monarch had awakened, stopped the development of the island, and organized the evacuation of the creatures there. This is also the reason for the sharp drop in the number of acquired ores. Without the consumption of the island, Sao The city itself cannot run out of those ores.
Seeing Leah's embarrassed expression, Ender said actively, "Forget it, when I didn't ask this question."
"No, since you joined Sau City, then you have the right to know all this." Leah shook her head, ready to tell the truth.
"You better stop talking." This time, it was Ender who was embarrassed. As for the secrets of the City of the Dead, he just asked casually, but he didn't want to get to the bottom of it. The more he knew, the more difficult it would be to escape. This was not the result he wanted to see. From Lia's embarrassment, he faintly Realize that that might not be a good thing.
It's a pity that Leah didn't see what he was thinking, but said: "Lord Rhode's territory goes beyond space and extends into the alien plane full of oceans. Those extra ores are precisely for the development of that It’s a pity that this project stopped two months ago, and the ocean has woken up.”
Ender hesitated, did Leah mean the water element plane? That Rhode actually stretched his hand to another plane? What does the ocean wake up mean again?
Seeing Leah go on, she may really be unable to escape, and Ender hurriedly interrupted her: "Why don't you show me other transaction records? These are just the part about the ore."
Hearing this, Leah did not refuse. From Ender's previous performance, she also saw Ender's talent, and then asked the corpse witch not far away to bring over a heavy book.
"This is all the financial records of Sao City, including the previous ore information, which are all recorded in detail."
Putting the classics on the long table, Leah just wanted to explain to Ender the content corresponding to each area, and Ender couldn't wait to read it.
"Did you transcribe all of this?" Looking at it, Ender seemed to have discovered something and asked actively.
Seeing Liya nodding, Ender said again: "Have you done something in the Freelance Chamber of Commerce? These accounts are well organized, and the symbols that refer to goods are also common within the Chamber of Commerce, and only people in the Chamber of Commerce can use them proficiently."
"That's the past." Leah showed a look of memory. "I left the Freelance Chamber of Commerce since Noah was born, and when he was reborn, I officially served Lord Rhodes."
Ender seemed to think of something: "Where's Noah's father? I don't seem to have heard you mention that."
Leah sighed: "He left, saying that he wanted to imitate Lord Rhodes and gain strength and power."
"So it's a good thing he's looking for his own worth, isn't it? We all have it"
Ender was just halfway through when he was interrupted by Leah: "For what it's worth, he never showed up beside Noah, maybe he died long ago, just like those undead creatures. If I can When I see him again, I will definitely kick his **** hard."
Seeing that Leia's reaction was very strong, Ender wisely didn't say more, but carefully browsed the accounts in his hand.
Slowly, Ender's brows got deeper and deeper, and the action of turning the pages became slower. The contents of each side had been confirmed by him many times. After finding that he had not missed any key items, Ender couldn't help but gasp. Air-conditioned.
"With all due respect, Lord Rhodes, is he planning to start a war?"
Closing the financial records in his hand, Ender's expression changed several times, and finally squeezed the sentence out of his teeth.
"Maybe, how do I know?" Leah spread her hands.
"Of course you should know." Ender showed an unlovable look. "You are in charge of finances, which means you are in charge of the mouthpiece of Sau City. No one knows every move in the city better than you. Sau City has recently consumed a lot of reserves. Gold coins, the purchase of war resources, didn't it arouse your alertness?"
Leah showed a puzzled look: "Even so, it doesn't explain much. There are many traces of demons all over the world. Maybe Lord Rhodes is preparing to defend against demons."
"If so, why did he spend millions of gold coins to buy space gems wantonly?" Ender opened the tome in his hand, pointed to one of them and asked, "This is a common trick used by mages. Build a teleportation monument to strengthen the control of the occupied land. However, even so, these space gems are too many, does he have other plans?"
Seeing Ender frowning and falling into deep confusion, Leah couldn't help laughing. It seems that the interior of Sao City will undergo new changes because of his arrival.
