"You can drive, can't you?" Galatea threw his luggage on the rented carriage shelf, then jumped up himself, laid a blanket and lay down comfortably, then turned to look at the busy trainee knight in front of the horse.

"Yes, my companions and I used to pretend to be drivers carrying grain and grass to attract orc ambushers," Griffith patted the shelf. "I put the mail under the linen coat, and the others are hiding in the position where you are lying now, holding crossbows covered with straw and sacks."

"How cunning ~" The elf girl tilted her mouth slightly.

Griffith's time is short, so he doesn't have time to wait for a regular sailing boat like other guests. As an army sergeant, he rented a carriage from Izmir's firm. After paying a certain rent, he can use the carriage instead of walking, and finally return it to another town firm near the channel in the north.

Galatea doesn't seem to care about anything, as long as he doesn't continue to live in the farmhouse. The two men went north along the land route, traveling in the direction of the capital Bayram.

Two days later, they came to baresi. After passing through here, go a little further and you will reach the east coast of the sea. This sea area connects the broken sea and the tranquil sea, which is the inner sea surrounded by the core territory of the kingdom. It can reach Bayeland within one day by boat.

The news of the victory of the war has reached here. It is said that the messenger ran through the town while shouting the news of the victory of the war, and then the messenger of this town ran towards the nearby town.

Happy people are singing and dancing in the street. Many small traders also sell their various commodities.

At the bustling city gate, Griffith and Galatea saw a notice posted on the street, saying that there was no need to send young people to join the army. The magic association and church were recruiting new people, and young people aged 12 to 17 could sign up for it.

"Don't you want to try it?" The Elf Ranger shook his head and said to the trainee knight, "Take off your hard armor, put on your robe and live a decent life, and then you won't have to bake black bread in the wilderness!"

"My magic affinity is very common, and it is difficult to complete the spell configuration due to the influence of blood gas. The priest in the army gave us a test," Griffith shook his head. "Even if I was admitted, I could only be a handyman."

"Isn't the handyman good!" Galatea picked his eyebrows with a smile. "Many great mages started from humble corners. First, they were handymen, front apprentices or something. Then, by virtue of their own efforts and coincidence, they found secrets or treasures hidden by dust in garbage dumps, old stacks and caves under waterfalls.Then go against the fate and change your life all the way to play pig, eat tiger, go beyond the challenge and kill the quartet! Does it sound super exciting? "

"Is this. which hero's legend is this?" Griffith looked at his companion in surprise.

"Why ~ don't you know? Lucian, Lin Lei, one vote! "

"Who is this! ？”

"You are really boring," Galatea shook his head. "Are there no novels in human libraries?"

"The books in the Junior Sergeant School are biased towards military science and engineering, and occasionally you can read a little history books," Griffith sighed. "Most of the time on the battlefield, you can only read regulations, military newspapers, or pick up two letters from corpses to see."

"I'm sorry, it's my fault," Galatea quickly waved his hand. "Stop it, the atmosphere suddenly became dignified and I was about to cry."

"It's nothing important. The reason why I returned from the front ahead of time was that I received a recommendation from larmor's family. In September, I could attend a higher comprehensive college like Homenworth for free," Griffith said with no mind. "It's a pity that I failed to catch up with the final attack.But there's nothing to complain about if you can enter such a well-known institution of higher learning. Although this is a magic school, there are also professional courses for me, and the books there must be full of pits and valleys! "

The genie smiled slightly: "Only you humans can do this ~ the law breaker of the Higher Institute of Magic.

"To say why we meet. well, a trainee knight, with practical experience in the East, and at the right age, it is not surprising that we were chosen to be Xiutoral. Izmir is on the East Channel again. "

Galatea seemed to be thinking about something, but soon gave up the idea. She looked at the bustling shops on the street and tugged at her companion's skirts. "Come on, let's eat that one! You have all the money, so please treat me to a good meal! "

The hotel here is as simple as Izmir's tavern, but it is also full of citizens celebrating the victory.

"Mr Trainee knight came back from the east? Would you like to try our special lamb chops? " When the waitress saw Griffith walk into the pub, she leaned up kindly at once. "I can also recommend you a job that is easy to make money in this town!"

Are your marketing routines uniformly trained? Everyone said the same thing. Griffith thought of Miss Tina of Izmir, smiled and shook his head.

"Really don't need a job introduction? It's easy to make money, then ~ then do you want to stay in the store! " The waitress continued disappointedly, "Recently, several travelers in the wilderness have disappeared, and the mayor is in a hurry to find someone to strengthen patrol."

Griffith declined the hospitality of the young lady, sat down in a wooden chair, ordered two large pieces of bread, some meat and a plate of vegetables, hesitated a little and added a pile of honey.

It's another 20 sous. Only one Goblin's head can get such a lunch, and peaceful life turns out to be like this. I heard that big noble in the capital can spend hundreds of silver lang for a meal.

For the gods' sake, this head can't fit all the tables!

The apprentice knight rolled all kinds of strange ideas and took a bite of the dry steak.

Galatea sat in front of Griffith, looking at the food on the table and then at him.

"Don't you want to eat?" The apprentice pushed a big piece of bread forward.

The beautiful and delicate-looking elf wrinkled her thin eyebrows and sighed lightly: "You obviously took so much reward, so you want to invite me to eat this?" This bread is so hard, it's sawed out with wood. I will deduct you five points! "

"This is an inland town in the east. Just after the war, there is no fresh catch and the traffic is not very convenient. Don't ask too much. The closer we are to the capital, the better we will eat. " Griffith quickly scooped up a spoonful of honey and handed it over. "I promise, I'll treat you to a good meal in Bayeland."

"Well, honey is good," the elf tasted the golden honey, and his eyes lit up immediately.

In front of her, the trainee knight rolled out a roll of writing paper, dipped it in ink with a quill pen, and wrote quickly.

"What are you writing?" While eating honey, Galatea brought the vegetable plate to his face.

"My teacher in the NCO School, he was transferred to the reserve army headquarters, and I was making an appointment to visit him," Griffith said. "There are ravens coming and going to Bayram, and I want to remind him to pay attention to Goblin in this attack, and send local troops to search and suppress it. Besides, we have to wait here for a while,The sheriff of the town has received an order to investigate the apprentice of Master Ai Xisi. He may bring me some information later. "

"Are you worried that Ai Xisi's accomplices will attack us? It is also possible, "the Elf Ranger put away his smile and asked seriously," Why do you pay special attention to Goblin? They are, disgusting. But to wipe them out, even the feudal knights don't have to go out on foot. Relatively speaking, the resurrected body is even more strange and dangerous! "

"Promethean doesn't have its own ethnic group and organization, and even it is a problem for company commanders to survive for a long time, which is not to be feared for the time being," Griffith said. "These goblins have their own intelligence and ethnic groups."

This little letter paper will be sent to Bayeland by ravens between towns. In this letter, the trainee knight is full of handwriting.

"Dear Mr. Heinz,

"Please forgive me for not being able to greet you for a long time due to the tense war. I didn't take part in the final siege of the Battle of Atana, and now I'm on my way back to the capital. Compared with my companions who died on the battlefield, I am undoubtedly extremely lucky. I hope I can share with you face to face many experiences and insights in the past two years.

"Just a few days before writing this letter, I took part in a battle with the Goblin bandits in Manisa village to the north of the port city Izmir, and I also encountered the resurrected body in the battle. I'm sure you've heard about these evil creatures, so I won't go into details.

"After the victory of the battle, the friendly forces and I went deep into Goblin's nest in the mountains, trying to save the captured villagers. There, I witnessed terrible scenes that I had never seen before on the battlefield.

"Goblin, who is only older than children, captured women in the village and pigs, sheep and livestock, mated indiscriminately, and gave birth to Goblin cubs of different shapes. The atrocities at the scene were disgusting. According to the survey results, if the mother is at the right time of conception, it takes only three days for this monster to mate and give birth.

"I'm also shocked that although goblins are ugly and fragile, they have a strong tolerance for the environment and are not picky about food. I think that even in the most difficult period of the eastern battlefield, the supplies and camps I enjoyed were 10,000 times better than those of the Goblin lair.

"Goblins can eat carrion, bark and even some excrement. According to survivors, after some mothers give birth to goblin cubs, adult goblins will kill their mothers for food. The terrible sight appalled everyone present. From the peaceful straits in the west to the bloody battlefield in the east, I have never seen anything more disgusting than them.

"This ethnic group has a strong reproductive capacity, and if left unchecked, the East and even the whole kingdom will fall into disaster.

"I also noticed that Goblin's attack on villages has many puzzling aspects. These creatures still launch meaningless attacks when the battle has failed, which contradicts their existing situation and ethnic characteristics. Their attack on villages is more like a test of tactics than an attack aimed at survival. Unfortunately,Because the superior species in the population has been killed, I can't get more information. I will submit a detailed report on the attack process of them and the Promethean.

"Dear teacher, this horrible incident made me extremely confused and worried. I think there is a deeper conspiracy behind it, and all this has not been taken seriously by the local authorities.

"As a soldier, I ask you to exert influence from the capital to thoroughly clear up and investigate the local Goblin. At present, this ethnic group is not in a climate, and there is still room for troops stationed in the east. If we miss this opportunity, we may pay a hundredfold sacrifice.

"greetings to you,

"Your student, Griffith Brandon."

After writing the text, Griffith estimated the date, attached a note to make an appointment for a visit, and then carefully put it away.

"I'm going to the town hall to deliver the letter," the trainee knight asked. "Where can I get Ai Xisi's information, if the official finds out his information?"

……

In the office of the town hall, Griffith watched the clerk take out a document.

"Ai Xisi's investigation work has been completed, second-class captain." The staff who received them were surprisingly efficient.

"So fast!" Griffith and the genie are a little unbelievable. "Have you found out his social relationship?"

"That's natural. Ai Xisi is an apprentice of the local resident mage Rudias. He fled two years ago for stealing special materials that he cherished." The clerk flipped through the appendix in the document. "Even in the process of fleeing, he constantly slandered the respectable resident mage. According to recent records, he was once active in Bayeland, but the official did not arrest him.

Galatea flicked through the files while tapping a blue crystal on the neckline. Smart eyes that seem to be talking are rare with cold and alert cold light.

The clerk pulled the collar, UU read a book and moved to the edge of the chair.

"Did the Bureau of Investigation ask Lord Rudias?" Griffith asked.

"I have investigated it more than once," the clerk opened a document with a lot of black smears and handed it over. "Yesterday, an investigator came to look at this document. You can have a look, although I don't think I can find anything."

Griffith unfolded this document. Galatea also leaned his head aside.

"Investigation Record about Master Ai Xisi's apprentice suing Master Rudias" (summary)

"Investigators: Inspector Tsukagoshi Hirotaka of the 71st Branch of the Eastern Region, trainee inspector Angelou.

"Classified: ordinary. For the local branch office to file for future reference.

"The following are the complaints and investigation findings:

"Ai Xisi, human, male, a wizard apprentice with mediocre qualifications, has not studied in institutions of higher learning. In December, 1441, he reported to the local branch office, accusing Master Rudias of conducting taboo research on dark magic, the content of which was "information erasure".

"After the investigation of Master Rudias in the 71st Branch, there was no evidence to accuse the crime. No magic residue of dark magic was detected in the mage tower stationed by the mage.

"Master Rudias counterclaims Ai Xisi for stealing extraordinary materials and research results. 71 Branch also investigated this. During the investigation, Ai Xisi disappeared, and the resident mage did not explain the details of the stolen materials and research.

"Dear [Information Eraser] came to personally hear and investigate the contents of the complaint, and no magic residue of dark magic was detected. The investigation was then terminated, and the investigator recorded it and reported it to the Central Bureau of Investigation.

"Remarks: The files of this investigation have been treated confidentially, and you need to apply to the Central Bureau of Investigation for access to the files."
