Versatile Mage: Heavy Water Overwhelms the World

Chapter 521: Sand Sea Poison Clam, Split Tail Iron Mane

……

The person who welcomed us was the mayor of the small town of Groningen. He stood up from his seat. He looked to be a white man in his thirties, with a sturdy build and a kind face.

Nan Yi and the others responded with a smile, but Han Li quietly took a step back and hid among the five people, with a slightly wrinkled face.

"Hello, I'm the mayor of Groningen, Patches. It's my honor to host you all from the Chinese government." Patches smiled and pointed to the sofa beside him: "Please take a seat, everyone."

After taking a seat, Patches continued.

"I have just heard about your situation. You want to take the train to Essen, right?"

"That's right, Mayor Pachis. We also learned that the train was suspended because the local mines were occupied by demons. I wonder if this is true?" Nan Yi said.

Hearing this, Patches sighed and said helplessly: "That's indeed the case..."

"This seabed sand vein is our pillar industry in Groningen. More than half of the local tax revenue depends on this vein."

"But the seabed sand mines themselves are extremely attractive to demons, and the geographical location is also quite ambiguous. They are often attacked by demons. Groningen does not have many powerful wizards, so it cannot work normally for at least three months every year."

As he spoke, Patches looked at Nan Yi and the others again, and said with a wry smile, "You all came at a bad time. Not only did the demons once again occupy the seabed sand mines a few days ago, but among the sea monsters occupying the seabed sand mines, there happened to be a poisonous demon called the Sand Sea Poison Clam. This is one of the most difficult demons to deal with. Ordinary mages can't penetrate their sand poison at all, and can only rely on drugs to slowly wear it down."

"Poisonous clam in the sand sea." Dongfang Linlin murmured.

She had heard of this kind of siren, a kind of social demon. The sand poison beads in their bodies were the source of their toxins. They had extremely strong defenses and were clumsy in movement, but the most troublesome thing about them was the sand poison, which was extremely toxic and colorless and odorless, and completely spread in the sea water.

Everyone frowned when they heard this.

Among the five of them, Dongfang Linlin and Bai Mei are both fire mages, Han Li also has short legs, and Qin Mo's earth and plant mages cannot cope with this situation.

Although Nan Yi's water combat power is amazing, he is a poisonous demon. He has already occupied the terrain and turned an entire seabed of sand veins into his own sand poison sea area. Can Nan Yi guarantee that he will not be poisoned to death by the sand poison first after entering?

Just as everyone was frowning, Nan Yi asked calmly, "Mayor Pachis, our schedule is quite tight. I wonder if it would be convenient for us to help you eliminate the demons occupying the seabed sand veins?"

Hearing this, even the people from China were slightly surprised. They were not surprised that Nan Yi wanted to help, but that Nan Yi still spoke so decisively after obtaining the poisonous clam in the sand sea.

Could it be that Nan Yi has a backup plan that they don’t know about?

And Pachis's smiling face suddenly froze, but returned to normal in an instant. He did not attract the attention of Nan Yi and the others. He smiled and nodded, looking surprised.

"If the Chinese government team is willing to help us, that would be great!"

Nan Yi continued to ask: "Has Mayor Pachis learned about the specific situation over there?"

Patches has returned to normal. He nodded and said, "Currently, the demons occupying there can be divided into land demons and sea demons."

"The main types of sea monsters are Sand Sea Poison Clams. They occupy most of the mineral veins. There are about a hundred of them. Among them, there is a commander-level Sand Sea Poison Clam, and the rest are basically generals."

"The land monsters are mainly the Split-Tailed Iron-Maned. They like to devour metal and live near the railway. There are only a few dozen of them, but there is also a leader-level Split-Tailed Iron-Maned."

"So little?" Nan Yi frowned and asked in confusion.

Logically speaking, a conventional commander-level demon in the wild would have at least several hundred or even thousands of slave-general-level vassals under his command, which constitutes a complete demon nest or tribe.

There are also places like the city of Bo, where a Winged Gray Wolf commands thousands of slaves and warriors, but this is mainly because they have the support of the wolf clan monarch's territory and their clan itself is prosperous.

The poisonous clams in the Sand Sea are not so difficult to deal with, as the number of sirens is often related to the ebb and flow of the tide. However, it is indeed rare to see a creature like the Split-Tailed Ironmane with only a few dozen warriors and even slaves rarely seen.

Patches also explained this.

"Because Split-Tail Ironfur and the others are from the same place."

the same place?

China?

Everyone was slightly stunned, but after a moment's thought, they immediately understood.

It's the Walsberg Mountains!

At that moment, everyone understood.

Isn't this the equivalent of the mountain bandits bringing a group of people down the mountain from time to time to collect money? Slave level? Too weak to bring!

I see……

Nan Yi nodded in understanding, and finally said, "I wonder if the mayor would be able to take us there."

Nan Yi had long seen that the mayor, Patches, was a high-level wizard. If nothing unexpected happened, he should be one of the few high-level wizards in this town.

But Patches was slightly stunned, then smiled and said: "It's a bit late today, why don't you take a rest for a day, and I will personally take you there tomorrow."

"Okay." Nan Yi nodded.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

If it were in China, he would naturally ask the other party the reason, but this is the Netherlands, and he just wants to leave as soon as possible, so he decided not to ask the reason.

"My assistant will take you to a hotel in town later. All your expenses in town will be charged to me. Just consider it as a thank you."

"No need, Mayor. Our instructor doesn't allow us to accept benefits from the locals, so we just need to find a place ourselves. We will come here by ourselves at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning." Nan Yi declined the mayor's kindness.

As for the reason... Feng Li has never had such a rule, otherwise how could they get on the Victoria ship?

"Okay, I'll take you all down."

A moment later, under the gaze of Patches, the five Chinese people left the Groningen City Hall and walked on the simple streets.

"Teacher, don't you want us to accept the good intentions of the locals?" Qin Mo asked puzzledly.

"No, but we must be on guard against others." Dongfang Linlin said.

"I think this mayor is a pretty good person."

At this time, Han Li frowned and said, "I don't think this mayor is a good person. We should be more careful."

"Did you find anything?" Qin Mo asked.

Han Li shook his head.

"Most people in the town have a good impression of this mayor, and he has done a lot of good things. But after meeting this mayor just now, I always feel that something is wrong, but I can't put my finger on it."

"Maybe it's intuition. Anyway, you all should be careful."

Everyone nodded when they heard this. No one was naive, so they took the psychic mage's reminder to heart.

"Let's take a rest today and see what happens tomorrow."
