Diablo Destruction

***

It turns out that this situation had already existed before the metal replica incident, but the perpetrators were limited to a small number of elves, and these elves knew very well how powerful the private magic projects studied by their ancestors were. (Get rid of) harm (line), so we only explore those magical ruins that have collapsed and have little energy left.

Among them, there is even an official team, that is, a team of personnel organized by the Royal Academy of Magic, who are carefully searching for some relatively safe ruins. The works left by the ancient elf mages are of great help to the elves who have declined in all aspects. It's still very helpful.

All in all, on that day that year, exploring magical ruins was still a relatively safe and harmless job. However, with two important changes, this kind of ruin exploration gradually became dangerous.

The first is the replicating metal body I just mentioned. Although it did not have a major impact on the elves, it made the magical relics on the border known to a small number of people into the eyes of the public. If nothing else, just that. It’s just Fini, the tomb robber and fake girl. When she first learned about the magic ruins, her eyes almost turned into 120-watt light bulbs.

In fact, it is also related to the previous Black Dragon Elias incident. The Black Dragon Elias incident can be said to be the largest disaster suffered by the elves in the past thousand years. Dozens of towns on the border were destroyed in this incident. Such a big event is naturally more widely known and cannot be covered up even if one wants to.

Therefore, these two events gradually became known to people. Especially for us [curious] humans, a little hint. It seems that the declining elves, the centipede insects are dead but not stiff, the skinny camels are bigger than horses, and their borders... hide a lot Secret look.

Although every race has good and bad people. It can't be killed with a single stroke, but even I, a human, can't deny that if you calculate which clan has mixed good and bad, the one with the biggest lust is the one who can't restrain his unbridled curiosity. By comparison, that's definitely human.

Therefore, after the fermentation of the previous two events, and then coupled with a direct reason-the Elf border began to be radically transformed into a training area, which caused a large number of people to flow into these places, there were more people than there were people. Some secrets are not secrets at all, and some magical relics that are unknown to others are slowly being discovered.

As a result, the profession of treasure thieves emerged. Their purpose is to explore ruins and find treasures, but these people are different from the previous explorers who have the quality and even the dangers of ruins. Treasure thieves don't care whether the ruins are dangerous or not, and whether the items inside will cause chaos like metal replicas if they are taken out. They just look for it, risking their lives.

Most of these treasure thieves were humans, so Xiao Heitan and I were interrogated at the beginning and found out that we were humans. Only when he behaves suspiciously will the elf soldiers be extremely vigilant.

"I see. Then, Grandpa Somako, has there been any major incident because of these treasure thieves?" After understanding the general situation and pondering for a moment, I continued to ask.

"There has not yet been a serious chaos like the metal replicas, but there have been more than a dozen incidents, both big and small, that have made our border soldiers very anxious and busy to deal with them." Somako stood up and took a look from a locked cabinet. Inside, he took out more than ten reports and handed them into my hands.

"I'm afraid that if we continue to leave these treasure thieves alone, sooner or later there will be an incident like the metal clone, or even an incident like the black dragon Elias. It's not impossible, so after notifying the royal city, After obtaining approval, he joined forces with the mayors of more than a dozen other small towns on the border and began to strictly monitor the treasure thieves and even arrest and deport them. Unexpectedly, this operation had only been launched for a few days, and the first person caught , it turned out to be you, Your Highness, I...I am ashamed..."

Speaking of the sore spot, Somako, who finally managed to cheer up, once again fell into endless depression and self-blame.

"No, Grandpa Somako, you are right to do this. If you let these treasure thieves go, you will definitely discover those serious things sooner or later as you just said. Please don't give up just because of me." This planned operation." I looked through the dozen documents in my hand carefully and said solemnly.

Having personally experienced and dealt with the incident of replicating metal bodies, I know better than Somak and others the dangers of wantonly exploring magic ruins. Therefore, after hearing about their handling of the matter, I felt that it was not enough and that it should be more severe.

"Moreover, we can't just strictly prevent and expel them. Such behavior is to treat the symptoms but not the root cause. With the gradual improvement of the elven border experience area, more civilians and adventurers will flock to the border area, which means that As more treasure thieves come in, we have to start catching them from the root."

"What good ideas does your Highness have?" Seeing my serious look, as if I was facing the Black Dragon incident that year, Somako became anxious.

"We have to take the initiative and find senior people in the treasure thief organization. Starting from this person, arrest all the important personnel and teach them how to behave in prison. After they become honest, If they are released again, I think that if we can successfully attack them once, at least within three to five years, this trend of treasure thieves can be calmed down and there will be no way for them to show up again."

"What your Highness said makes sense. I will prepare now and report it to the Royal City so that the entire border can take action. I believe it won't take long to catch one or two useful people." Somako nodded repeatedly, stood up, and Prepare for action.

"Grandpa Somako, don't bother me." I put my hand down on him and motioned him to sit down and not be in a hurry.

"Does Your Highness already have an idea?"

"That's right, speaking of senior treasure thieves..." I snapped my fingers and gave instructions to the elf soldiers beside me.

Less than ten minutes later, a familiar voice came from outside the door.

"Meow...what are you going to do, meow, why are you arresting me for no reason, meow, I didn't just break into your important place, and I didn't steal anything in your prison, meow~~~"

The sound of Feini's children's shoes, who had an indissoluble bond with the royal family and had the experience of entering the palace several times, reached her ears after a while. Her figure appeared at the door, and two spears behind her pointed her directly in.

"What a rude and violent guy, meow. Fortunately, I always thought you were a personable and elegant race, but I didn't expect you to be the wrong person, meow."

Angrily shaking her fist in protest at the elf soldiers behind her, Feini turned around and saw me sitting calmly drinking tea.

"Cousin, it turns out that you are here too. Just in time, look at these elf soldiers who captured me here for no reason. As your Royal Highness, don't you think you should say something to these rude soldiers?"

When Finny saw me, she immediately felt like a puppy meeting its owner. He quickly ran up to me, meowing his complaints to me, and pretending to squeeze out a few tears of grievance.

"Who do you think asked the soldiers to capture you?" The veins on my forehead kept twitching. Is this tomb robber pretender really stupid or is she pretending to be stupid?

"Who...could it be that it's my cousin? Meow? Why did you come here? If you just want to see me, just tell me. I really didn't do anything bad this time, I swear, meow." Feini felt Feeling even more aggrieved, he swore to the sky.

"Are you sure you didn't do anything bad?"

"No meow." Feini answered sonorously and forcefully, as if she had really suffered a huge injustice.

"You should take a look at these reports first." I directly handed the reports Somako gave me about the various incidents caused by the magic relics during this period to Feini.

Looking at them one by one, Feini's original eyes were filled with righteousness and indomitable power. A little weaker, sweat slowly broke out on his forehead.

"Cousin...cousin, these incidents really have nothing to do with me, meow." She was no longer as confident as before, she lowered her head and muttered in defense.

"It really doesn't matter at all?" I emphasized, my eyes majestic. Chao Feini conveys the idea of ​​leniency for those who confess and severity for those who resist.

"No...no, Meow. I was just investigating, but I didn't explore Meow."

"Six points on that map. That's all you know, and you haven't organized other colleagues to do anything together?" I slapped the table, startling Feini.

"Really...there really is no meow. Cousin, think about it. A senior person like me has always worked alone and can do it alone. How can I share these good places with other people?" Eyeballs After spinning around for a few times, Feini became confident again, looking great.

"Indeed, you don't seem like the kind of person who can share a good place with others, but likes to work alone." I nodded. Before Fini was a transvestite, she was a solitary wanderer. I had never heard of it. She had never had any partners in the tomb robber business.

"As expected of your cousin, he knows my character very well, meow." Feini seemed to see the hope of innocence, her eyes lit up, and she nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

"So, how many copies of those tasteless snacks have been sold?" I asked suddenly and abruptly.

"It's like seven or eight copies... No, cousin, what are you talking about? I don't understand at all, meow, meow hahaha~~~" Feini blurted out, then quickly covered her mouth, pretending to be stupid with tears in her eyes. stand up.

"Fini." I stood up from the chair, took a few steps forward and came to Fini, lowered my head, looked at and stroked her stunning face that was no less beautiful than any woman.

"How...do I treat you?"

"Cousin...cousin...you...you..." Fini was suddenly stunned by my sudden move, her eyes became blurred, and her face gradually turned red.

Why...why did my cousin suddenly become so bold? In front of everyone, he did this...such...

"Although...even though you always bully me, always...always treat me like a toy...but...you are still Feini's most...most important cousin, meow..." As he said this, the little pretender was shy. lowered his head.

"So, you won't lie to me, right?" I smiled softly.

"Uh-huh……"

"How many copies were sold?"

"Eight...eight portions, a total of twelve o'clock." Feini subconsciously told the truth, then covered her mouth tightly, and her eyes burst into tears again, which made me feel pity for her.

"That's it, I understand..."

"I...I was wrong, cousin...eh meow?" Suddenly, Feini found that the gentle cousin in front of her was missing.

Instead, there were strong arms wrapped around her waist from behind.

"Secrets of the Wu family - German style arch bridge fall!!!"

Accompanied by an angry shout, the next moment. Feini was spinning, and then there was a sharp pain in the back of her head. She was unconscious at that time, and her eyes were spinning.

"The truth is out, Grandpa Somako, please start investigating this guy." I clapped my hands and pointed at the little transvestite lying on the ground in a large font. Said Somako.

"Yes...yes..." Being thrown by this earth-shattering German-style arch bridge, his mouth opened wide in fright, and he was speechless for a long time. A word came to Somak's mind - His Highness the Prince is mighty and domineering, for a long time , he nodded with difficulty.

Squat on the ground. Somako interrogated carefully: "Lord Feini, can you tell me who you sold those ruins to? Of course, it would be better if you could tell me all the information about the treasure thieves you know. ”

"It's not if, it's a must." I said coldly from the side. After all, Somako couldn't say harsh words to Feini because of my relationship.

"Woo~~~wuwu~~~wuwuwuwu~~~My cousin bullies me, it's impossible, I can't say it, even though I am a great tomb robber who works alone without a partner, But I will never betray my fellow cats."

Feeney stood up, sobbing and looking at me with resentful eyes. Holding the back of his head, which was still hurting, he looked like he would rather die than surrender.

"Oh? Are you really unwilling to say anything no matter what?" I narrowed my eyes.

"Yes... yes, even my cousin can't pry open my mouth. This is professional ethics." Feini was startled by the way I squinted her eyes and shivered like a small animal caught in the rain. Get up, but still talk hard.

"Professional ethics... very good. I want to see your professional ethics. How many pounds does it weigh... Ah, it seems I don't need to do anything." He was about to use all the methods in his mind to force Fei Ni spoke, but suddenly. I stopped, looked outside the door, and laughed.

"Professional ethics...?" Behind Feini, at the door, a sweet voice like nine layers of ice came.

Feini was immediately like a mouse meeting a cat. All the hairs on her body stood up. She turned back stiffly and looked at Oona, who was standing at the door with a smile on her face and a black air coming from her back.

"O...Oona...I...I..."

"How many times have I told you, Feini, you can't cause trouble to the elders, you naughty child, why don't you obey?" The smile on Oona's pretty face became even brighter, and then she ignored Feini's whining, His eyes fell on me.

"Elder, can you hand Feini over to me? Don't worry, I will make her spit out everything she knows to you - within five minutes."

"Then I'll trouble you." I laughed bitterly and watched Oona drag Feini away.

"I'm sorry, Elder, for causing you trouble again." Bisi, who came over after hearing the news, stepped forward Rourou, her cheeks flushed and apologized to me repeatedly.

"It's not your fault, Bisi, come on, let's have a few sips and wait for the news."

Before the third glass of wine was finished, Oona came back, followed by Fini, who was quite haggard.

"Grandpa Somako, the rest is up to you."

"Yes, Your Highness, please rest assured." I have done this. If I continue to direct the next things, Somako, the mayor, will be in vain. He immediately nodded. , called several elf scribes, and recorded Fini’s confession in detail. I don’t know if I don’t ask, but I will be shocked when I ask. Fini is not only a senior person, but also the entire Kurast seaport. The hidden boss in the regional treasure thief organization. With clues like her, it might not be difficult to uproot the Kurast regional treasure thief organization.

Very good, another incident was solved satisfactorily. Before problems arose, it went so smoothly that I couldn't believe it.
