Chapter 680: Chasing!
Beech Island is the largest city on the west coast of the Silver Dragon Republic, the island is more than three miles from the mainland, and the entire island has been built into a harbor city similar to Rapidsport, and it is also one of the largest cities in the Silver Dragon Republic.
"Such a nobleman's personal belongings generally do not appear in the cargo, unless its owner carries it with him on board." Lu Kuan looked at his notepad and said.
Lu Kuan went to the Beech Island section on the forum to see it before, not long ago, Beech Island did issue a reward order, a young lady of this family was on the merchant ship disappeared near Rapids Harbor, along with more than 70 crew members on board, and a shipload full of goods.
Meng Ge frowned when he heard this, the fate of the young lady was already obvious, but he still couldn't figure it out: "But what's the use of knowing this, there are so many pirates on that sea route, how do you know who did it?" ”
As she spoke, Meng Ge habitually wrinkled her little nose, that was her expression when she was thinking about the problem, and the afternoon sun shone in through the car window, reflecting the eyes of the little halfling like sapphires, shining and transparent, Lu Kuan was stunned for a while.
Meng Ge quickly noticed the change in Lu Kuan's eyes, his face turned slightly red, and he kicked Lu Kuan with his little foot.
Lu Kuan came back to his senses, swallowed his saliva, and grinned: "Well, of course I know~"
On the night of rescuing Sil, Lu Kuan contacted Heaven Eternal Darkness and asked the other party to find out where the merchant ship on which the noble girl of Beech Island was probably missing through his relationship in Rapidsport.
It's not difficult to check this, after all, it's a nobleman with a high status in the Silver Dragon Republic, and if this kind of thing happens, the movement is definitely not small, and even if you want to cover it up, you can't escape the eyes and ears of insiders.
For Lu Kuan, knowing the approximate location of the accident on the merchant ship, he also knows which wave of people did it - in the eyes of the vast majority of players now, the actions of the pirates are extremely hidden, and the enemies of the thirty or forty levels on the pirate ship are not something that the current players can touch.
But Lu Kuan can, the players in the previous life have already figured out the situation of the pirates on this route.
For example, the sea area where the merchant ship on Beech Island had an accident happened to be the territory of a group of pirates called "Iron Mast" - there are many pirates on the maritime trade route, but it is the most suitable for starting, and it is also the golden area that most merchant fleets have to pass through, in fact, it has long been occupied by several large pirate groups.
"Iron mast?"
Meng Ge seemed to remember something, and his eyes were shining: "It's the legendary pirate group who robbed the Northland merchant group and strengthened the Northland Pearl Dragon's Eye Gem?" ”
"That's all rumors~"
Lu Kuan smiled directly when he heard this, and waved his hand: "The Dragon's Eye Gem is the treasure of the Northland Kingdom, if it was really robbed, those legendary mages and the Knights of the North Wind would have pounced on it a long time ago, what pirate group could stop this?" ”
These large pirate groups are as clever as ghosts, and they are not enough to provoke the most powerful existence in the world, just rob ordinary people.
The Giant Banyan Clan, in the eyes of the Iron Mast, is a very ordinary ordinary person.
Meng Ge looked at Lu Kuan, looking at the faint smile on this man's face, as if he had a heart, and suddenly felt what the other party was thinking now.
"You're not really going to find the iron mast, are you?"
Meng Ge looked worried, obviously disagreeing with Lu Kuan's plan: "Their strength is stronger than you think, for a wood elf?" It's not worth it. ”
"Haha~ I didn't say now, can I still fly over and tell them that Lao Tzu is here to raid your house?"
Lu Kuan knocked on Meng Ge's head with his finger, and said with a happy smile: "On the contrary, let's keep a low profile now, don't let them know that the ancient castle was slaughtered by us, develop quietly, don't conflict, the future is long, now just give Cier a hope, it's enough." ”
The little halfling rubbed his somewhat sore forehead and pouted, but his mind was already recalling the information about the iron mast, thinking about how far Runeterra City would have to develop before he could compete with the iron mast head-on?
Lu Kuan didn't tell Xi'er this news as soon as possible, because there was a troublesome matter that had been hanging in Lu Kuan's heart, and if it wasn't solved for a day, Lu Kuan wouldn't be able to rest assured.
And the next day, the trouble finally came to its place.
The first to discover the situation was the wind element in the sky, and he warned Lu Kuan early, and Lu Kuan immediately led the team to the rear, concentrated more than half of the combat power, and set up a formation to surround the tail of the caravan.
As they passed Mongo's carriage, the little halfling had poked its head out of the window.
"There are enemies?"
Mongo's intuition was very sharp, and he said directly: "Is it someone from the ancient castle?" ”
Lu Kuan nodded and said: "Probably yes, you and Didacro bring a few people to make sure that Ciel hides in the carriage and doesn't show his head, now that the matter has not been punctured, the other party can't see the wood elves." ”
"Understood."
Meng Ge made a gesture at Lu Kuan that was okay, and added at the end: "Be careful." ”
"Understood." Lu Kuan made an identical gesture and grinned.
……
In the rear, a team of horses has appeared in everyone's field of vision.
The speed of the other party was fast, and the horses made rapid progress on the low hills, rushing towards the position of the caravan.
Lu Kuan rode a horse and stood on a high place, looking at this group of people from a distance, the other party was wearing very ordinary equipment, without any pirate characteristics, even the knives and guns in his hands were ordinary models, and the war horse under his crotch did not have any marks and camp marks except for the saddle.
But Lu Kuan was sure that these menacing guys were the pirates and the people of the iron mast.
"They moved very quickly, and the teleportation array was repaired?" Dai Guang looked at the no less than fifty or sixty people who rushed over, and said with disdain.
"Since the teleportation array has been repaired, there must be a mage coming,"
Lu Kuan did not underestimate the enemy, looked around, and found no figure of the mage, and smiled at the Wu next to him: "If they rush to the range of fifty meters and don't stop, they will fight directly, I will go to the forest to find the mage." ”
"Hmm." Wu Xiaoxiao and Dai Guang nodded together.
Lu Kuan left the nine-headed Heavenly Realm Wolf and Zebra in the team, and with only Dimi with him, he quickly touched into the mountain forest on the side of the mountain range.
The other party had no intention of negotiating with this side at all, and rode on the war horse at a speed that did not decrease, and rushed straight towards the caravan, and as the distance approached, the frantic shouts in the other team's team began to become clear and audible.
The pirates are excited, excited, such a large-scale caravan is in front of them, even if there is no task from above, such a large amount of material wealth is enough to arouse the professional excitement of the pirates.
