Realm of Power

Prologue Chapter 32, Fatty's Ambition (V)

In the dark night, the cool night wind brought bursts of coolness, soothing the passionate hearts of the soldiers. The fierce battle in the evening cost nearly three hundred spearmen their lives. This heavy price made it difficult for Du Yu to sleep.

Du Yu sat up and picked up a thick branch from the side and threw it into the bonfire in front of him. Looking at the sparks flying in front of him, Du Yu felt that he had to consider the cost of sending troops this time.

"Sir, what do you think this is?"

Hearing Crolissart's voice not far away, Du Yu saw the tall figure of the hunter leader Crolissart walking from the east side of the camp, holding a yellowed sheepskin high in his hand with excitement on his face, and wearing a hooded jacket. Wearing a piece of Kukit armor full of exotic colors, the skirt of the armor made a "swishing" sound when walking, causing the nearby soldiers to stare with envy.

As the chief hero of this battle, Crolisat insisted on asking his lord to get a piece of Kujit armor as the honor of his family passed down from generation to generation, so as to show his descendants how brave their ancestors were. As a soldier, Du Yu couldn't refuse this request. Unexpectedly, just after he agreed, this guy would wear his armor to show off.

"What are you doing? If you hang out in this at night, you won't be afraid of being shot by sentries as enemies. When your descendants know that their brave ancestors were cowards and died in the hands of their own people, your good wishes will be in vain."

Du Yu looked at the Kujit armor on Crolisat's body unhappily, and felt awkward in his heart. This battle caused Du Yu's Falcon troops to lose nearly 300 spearmen, although they finally got one. The handle is suspected to be the command sword of the captain of the Kugit team, but thinking about the compensation for nearly three hundred soldiers gives Du Yu a headache. Now Crolisat is still wearing this armor to stimulate himself, how can he not make Du Yu angry?

"Haha, this is what we just found when we searched the body of Commander Kugit. I was afraid it was some important item, so I brought it to you immediately before I could change my clothes."

Seeing her master's slightly angry face, Crolisate scratched her head in embarrassment and handed the yellowed sheepskin in her hand to Du Yu who was sitting by the campfire.

"What's this?"

Du Yu took the sheepskin roll from Crolissatt's hand in confusion, and slowly spread it out under the bonfire with his curious hands. Through the bright yellow light of the bonfire, it could be seen that this was a very worn-out sheepskin roll with light colors on it. Blue, red, and gray and black outline lines and patterns, just like a map of mountains and rivers

The sheepskin rolled noodles have yellow spots due to being too long or being exposed to moisture, exuding a sour musty smell, and even a smell of sheep meal unique to the Kugit people. It seems that Crolisat It is not nonsense to say that this is the personal collection of Commander Kugit.

"Judging from the geographical marks on it, this is a map of Satdo County, which we are about to go to. It should have been stolen from a noble by these Kugits when they plundered Satdo County. This thing is very useful to the Kugits who are not familiar with the terrain, but it is of little use to us.”

After carefully identifying the map on the parchment scroll, Du Yu's originally happy face showed a slight look of disappointment. Du Yu thought Crolisat had discovered something great, but he didn't expect that it was just a look that was a little further back in time. He immediately lost interest and prepared to roll up the unfolded sheepskin map with his hands, but was stopped by Crolisat next to him with his hands.

"Sir, look at these two places. There are special marks on the northern mountains of the Satdo map and the Sodalei hills where we are now. Although we don't know what they mean, they can be used for the command of the Kugits. It should be a very important thing to keep in your personal collection!”

Crolissart still refused to give up, and hurriedly stretched out his fingers to tap the two small black triangles at the north corner and the south corner of the map. Following Crolissatt's fingers, Du Yu indeed saw There are two tiny black crosses hidden in the dim lines of the map. If Crolisate hadn't pointed it out specifically, it would have been difficult to see it under the dark campfire.

"It seems that the Skynet is very careful and meticulous. Yes, you did a good job. If I guess correctly, this is a treasure map of the Kugits!"

Seeing the black cross on Croissant's finger, Du Yu, who had been disappointed just now, became interested. His eyes were shining when he looked at the black cross, as if he suddenly discovered that this yellowed parchment had blossomed into a beautiful flower. He also praised Crolissatt repeatedly, and Crolissatt was baffled by the praise.

"Treasure map? No way. We have carefully searched the corpses of those Kugits. They were as poor as mice. There was almost nothing on them except a small amount of dried marching meat, let alone anything valuable. , It seems that you are so poor that you can rely on money for everything!”

Crolisate looked at the excited Du Yu in disbelief, and her heart was full of contempt for her master's judgment. Crolisate knew that there were only two things worthy of attention in her master's poor head. One was One thing is money, the other thing is still money

"You don't believe it?"

Du Yu looked at Crolisate's disdainful face and knew what his subordinate was thinking. His face suddenly turned red, his body tone immediately became a little higher, and his fingers were scratching around on the map.

"From the north to the south, this Kugit cavalry almost traversed the entire Kingdom of Wikiya, and five or six counties were looted. However, we did not find the looted property on these Kugits. Could it be that None of these valuable goods could fly away. Now it seems that these properties should have been buried in these two areas by the Kugits. When the war is over, they can send caravans to steal these stolen goods without anyone noticing. Ship it out of the country in a dignified manner!”

As Crolisate listened to Du Yu's analysis, the disdain on her face gradually faded away, replaced by her constant nodding along with Du Yu's analysis.

"Sir, please rest assured. This location is in the Sodale Hills, not very far from here. I will immediately lead 1,000 soldiers to dig out all the buried things."

Finally, Crolisate could no longer hold back her excitement and stood up from the ground. She took the yellowed parchment from Du Yu's hand and disappeared into the darkness of the camp.

Du Yu's conclusion was confirmed in the early morning. Crolisate, who led the soldiers to dig for the treasure, brought back more than a dozen items wrapped in white cloth on a flatbed carriage in the morning fog. The heavy rut marks already showed the contents of the carriage. The weight of the carriage was extraordinary. Du Yu walked over and patted the things wrapped in white cloth on the flatbed carriage. He heard the crisp sound of metal hitting each other from inside.

"Am I right? How are things?"

Hearing Du Yu's question, Crolisate scratched her head with a smile, winked at the things covered by the white cloth on the flatbed carriage, and whispered.

"Sir, these are definitely good things. I didn't expect that all the treasures collected by these Kujit people with so much hard work would fall into our hands!"

Du Yu looked at Crolisate who had a sneer on his face, walked to the side of the flatbed carriage and casually opened a corner, golden light shined through.

Gold items inlaid with various gemstones were exposed from under the white cloth, including gold bottles, gold wrists, and piles of gold utensils. It seemed that the Kugit people had a special liking for gold. Du Yu even saw one inside. A Marquis-level round gemstone tiara inlaid with a ruby ​​as big as a thumb in the middle.
