  Chapter 249 There is a mystery in the misty mountains [Please subscribe]

  Chen Xuan came at the right time.

  At this time, the bright sun had already set first, and the blue and dim sun hung low in the west of the sky.

  He took out the leaf bookmark found in the secret room of Akso Manor from his arms.

  This thing needs to wait until the silver moon rises, and then align the position of the petiole to the north of Magtan.

  Yeluo is bathed in the moonlight, and you can see the location of the dark gold mine.

  However, since the last two rounds of Demon Moon reaching the top, Silver Moon's condition has become abnormal.

  Apparently it's also affected by the phases of the moon.

  But no matter what, even if the silver moon only appears for a moment, it is enough for Chen Xuan.

  Putting away the Ye Luo bookmark, he turned to look at Baron Bezos.

  "How is the repair work on the tower going?"

  "Currently, the gap less than 20 meters has been basically repaired."

  "As you can see, the large gap is under construction."

  Baron Bezos answered in a familiar manner.

  After a slight pause, he continued.

  "However, the third-level large-scale magic circle engraved on the city tower is missing some materials." "

  It needs to be purchased from the trading company in the giant city of Attax." "

  In addition, the large-scale magic energy shield generation devices in the four directions of the third circle also need They are all in a state of damage."

  "Three of them were destroyed by overload, and one was demolished by a monster." "

  Currently, Bangcheng does not have the ability to manufacture or repair large-scale shielding devices." A

  clever woman cannot make a meal without rice, Magtan City The foundation of the city is insufficient and far inferior to that of the giant city.

  Many materials need to be purchased from giant cities or other places.

  Only Giant City has the ability to produce and provide large-scale magic energy generating devices used to defend the city.

  These are problems that Magtan City cannot solve on its own.

  There is currently no way to completely cut off dependence on the giant city of Attax.

  Of course, Chen Xuan can also choose other giant cities.

  But as a borderland, Attucks is already the closest giant city to here.

  In the continent of Naroa, the biggest problem in cross-city commerce is distance.

  It turns out that Magtan City doesn’t even have a caravan going directly to the giant city.

  Each trade route only revolves around other surrounding cities or large settlements.

  It's like nodes that are linked to each other, forming a dense business grid.

  And in the center is the giant city of Atax.

  Under such circumstances, the one-way trip for the team sent by Magatan City to reach the giant city would take at least five or six Naroa days.

  The first two thousand kilometers must be trekked on foot until you reach the Black Leaf Sentinel Point.

  That is the giant city-level teleportation point closest to Magatan.

  As long as they pay a hefty fee, they can use the teleportation array to reach the giant city of Attucks.

  But even so, it would take at least ten Naraya days to go back and forth.

  Chen Xuan knew what Baron Bezos wanted to express.

  It's just that the traffic efficiency to the giant city is too low, making it difficult to complete the targets he issued on time.

  In the final analysis, Naroya is just an extraordinary world where low-level demons turn into middle-level demons.

  Even if everyone has a certain level of magic cultivation and a relatively strong body, they can't solve the problem of traveling long distances, especially when space teleportation arrays are relatively rare.

  When he came into contact with Naroa's space storage jewelry, Chen Xuan already knew that the space technology achievements here relied entirely on studying and replicating ancient ruins.

  The Naroa Aboriginal people do not have a high level of use of space technology.

  The current method of transportation for caravans mainly relies on animal power.

  They are mainly heavy draft animals with good endurance, such as mountain mules, four-eyed oxen and valley horses.

  It is necessary to ensure reliability for long-distance treks while also taking into account carrying capacity.

  However, their trekking efficiency is not very high. They are only slightly faster than normal jogging, but they are better at lasting.

  The solution to this problem is also very simple, that is, to improve the efficiency of caravan traffic.

  Changing transportation becomes the best choice.

  The rune-modified Erba Dagang is good, but it is not suitable for long-distance travel.

  "We have to get a few off-road trucks."

  "And in order to ensure the carrying capacity, it's best to gather a batch of stored jewelry in the city."

  Chen Xuan thought about it in his mind and soon came up with an idea.

  "Don't worry about this now."

  "You will make a list of the supplies you need later." "

  At the same time, we will search for space storage jewelry and magic items in the city." "

  I will bring some steel vehicles. They can run faster than mules and horses."

  "As for the quantity purchased, it will be arranged according to the upper limit of the carrying capacity."

  After hearing Chen Xuan's words, Baron Bezos breathed a sigh of relief.

  "Is it like those blankets...tanks?"

  He stuttered out a Xia Mandarin word.

  In response, Chen Xuan just smiled and shook his head.

  "It's not exactly the same."

  "Keep in remote contact with Jucheng first, and I will solve the problem of the caravan in these two Narayas." "

  By the way, will Jucheng send anyone later?"

  Chen Xuan Then he asked a question that he was more concerned about.

  Baron Bezos frowned slightly and pondered for a moment before answering.

  "The support team sent by the giant city of Attucks has withdrawn."

  "But a temporary station has been left in place."

  "I think there will be follow-up actions."

  As Chen Xuan understood him Such as the problems faced in coordinating the reconstruction of Magtan City.

  Baron Bezos also understands what his master's demands are for this small state city.

  Chen Xuan nodded in agreement.

  "Please wait closely for the follow-up report."

  "Even if the gentlemen in the giant city of Attax really take any action, they will definitely inform you, the local governor."

  In fact, he didn't take this situation too seriously. Worry.

  The reason is also very simple.

  The large troops supported by Jucheng have withdrawn, which is enough to prove his previous speculation.

  That is, Jucheng will not waste its troops in this corner.

  Especially when the giant city already has more information.

  As for the establishment of a temporary station, an investigation team may be dispatched later.

  If Chen Xuan were in the perspective of the ruling class in Jucheng, he would do the same thing.

  When something goes wrong, there must be a monster.

  Whatever the reason, foreshadowing or not.

  The fact that Magtan City survived the demonic disaster is very strange in itself.

  However, if it was just the investigation team, Chen Xuan was still confident enough to handle them.

  Now just wait and see what happens.

  Anyway, there is no conflict or interest entanglement between Magtan City and Atax City.

  The trouble is never the problem, but the interest within the problem.

  He didn't believe that Master Jucheng would work so hard in this small place.

  It would be prudent enough to send out an investigation team.

  Thinking of this, he patted Baron Bezos on the shoulder.

  Then he asked him about the reserves of food and mineral raw materials in the city.

  Got a not too optimistic answer.

  "Food can last for more than one and a half Naroa months according to the rationing method." "

  But the mineral materials are on the verge of being exhausted." "

  Whether it is repairing buildings, carving magic circles, or forging weapons, a large amount of magic metal is needed. ."

  "But the good news is that black iron, orichalcum, and dark gold have sufficient stocks due to their large amounts of currency." "

  In addition, there are sufficient reserves of magic cores and monster materials." "

  There are many of them of level four and above. The high-end materials have been stored separately according to your instructions."

  Baron Bezos is quite respectful and has a very clear understanding of the material reserves in the city.

  After listening to his report carefully, Chen Xuan raised his eyebrows.

  The food problem is easy to solve, and he can easily use Blue Star's channels to solve it.

  Even the astonishing appetite of the Naloa natives with extraordinary physiques is not worth mentioning in terms of Blue Star's huge food circulation.

  Judging from the transaction prices of overseas bulk meat, milk, and flour.

  It only costs one or two million US dollars to import about a thousand tons of food from Kangaroo Country.

  He can even choose to purchase in Xia domestically.

  There are a lot of emergency foods such as instant noodles and eight-treasure porridge in warehouses and supermarkets everywhere.

  So what is difficult to solve is the problem of lack of mineral materials.

  Fortunately, most of these raw materials are produced in surrounding settlements and cities, so there is no need to go to the giant city.

  There are several settlements with different specialties near Magtan City.

  In the past, caravans would come almost every Naraya day.

  However, the trade routes to and from Magatan City have been almost completely shut down in the past few days.

  After thinking for a moment, he had an idea.

  "Gather the caravans that were stranded in the city."

  "Replenish the animal power and carriages that the caravans are currently lacking." "

  Resume the purchase of raw materials from surrounding mining sites." "

  As for the food problem, you don't have to worry about it. During this time, I will We will find ways to replenish it."

  "All the Akso Manor will be used to build a new grain warehouse."

  The only thing Magtan City is not short of is probably money.

  After confiscating Ansetus's small treasury, Chen Xuan confiscated dark gold coins worth hundreds of millions of crowns.

  Plus the materials and magic cores produced by monsters.

  The current city of Magtan is extremely rich.

  You will only worry about not being able to spend the money, but you will not worry about having no money to spend.

  Facing his instructions, Baron Bezos did not dare to neglect and bowed quickly.

  But Chen Xuan's face didn't look good.

  He has already felt the disadvantages of the city-wide contract.

  Baron Bezos dared not make any decisions privately without his guidance.

  Otherwise, why would he need to decide on such a small issue?

  Frowning, he made a decision.

  That would be to loosen the reins of Baron Bezos and City Hall.

  "You have to find your own solutions to these problems in the future." "

  I allow you to transfer large amounts of krona, and I also allow you to make reasonable personnel arrangements." "

  Of course, all arrangements must be based on the tasks I have assigned to you. ."

  "Only for major matters involving the safety of the whole city, or problems that cannot be solved, wait for my instructions." The

  invisible shackles of the soul contract will greatly stifle their subjective initiative.

  This is not what Chen Xuan wants to see.

  Because he couldn't stay in Naroa for a long time to deal with everything.

  "Understood, master..."

  "I will convey your will truthfully."

  Baron Bezos is also Chen Xuan's confidant, so he calls him master.

  The baron quickly bowed his head and saluted him.

  Speaking of the present, Chen Xuan also basically understands the current progress of Magatan City and the problems it faces.

  He nodded gently to Baron Bezos.

  Then he walked out of the temporary tent.

  He raised his head and looked at the sky again.

  The dark sun has sunk below the horizon.

  Two demonic moons hang high in the northern sky.

  Silver Moon has not yet appeared.

  Due to the double moon summit, you have to wait a little longer to see the Silver Moon.

  He just stood there silently, neither impatient nor impatient.

  Watching the sky change with my own eyes, the silver moon rose little by little from the southeastern sky.

  The cold-toned moonlight illuminates the earth inch by inch from the sky.

  Chen Xuan stared at the shadow in front of his feet, and didn't raise his head until the moonlight fell in front of him.

  Holding the Yeluo bookmark in his hand, he slightly adjusted its position.

  Soon, the silver-white moonlight poured down like water.

  The light passed through the gaps in the leaves and projected a moon shadow map on the ground.

  This map clearly depicts the area around Magtan City.

  Chen Xuan took out his mobile phone with his other hand, turned on the ultra-wide-angle camera, and took detailed photos of the moon shadow map on the ground.

  Then he slowly put down the Ye Luo bookmark and stared at the phone intently.

  Open the photo album, click on the captured moon shadow map, and select a picture combination.

  He then imported the markings he had previously recorded from the murals of the mysterious grotto in the misty canyon.

  The two pictures are arranged horizontally, and after intuitive comparison, the results are clear at a glance.

  There are only two marked points on the Moon Shadow map.

  One is Magtan City, and the other is located in the mountains deep in the Misty Canyon.

  That should be the location of the dark gold mine.

  There is a trail line extending from the back of Misty Canyon.

  In terms of points, the number is much less than the marks on the mysterious ruins murals.

  But after comparison, Chen Xuan found that the mark of the dark gold mine could match one of the mural spots.

  Such results illustrate a situation.

  That is to say, the dot marks on the murals definitely have a great origin.

  If you go to other points, you might be able to find something.

  In comparison, the Moon Shadow map obtained from Ye Luo's bookmark is nothing.

  The Dark Gold Mine is just one of the points, and there are five points on the mural mark.

  "It seems that it is necessary to form an expedition team to go deep into the Misty Canyon to explore." "

  In addition to the dark gold mine, the remaining four marked points are also worth exploring." "

  Misty Mountain may have a lot of mysteries!"

  Chen Xuan Thinking in my heart.

  This is a very important discovery.

  He thought it was necessary to take some time to personally lead the team there.

  But Blue Star has something to do tomorrow and the next two days.

  In other words, the exploration must be scheduled at least one to two Narog days later.

  After roughly arranging the time for various matters, he turned around and called Baron Bezos.

  "By the way, Bezos."

  "Before the next Naroa Day, I need you to assemble an expedition team." "

  Select silver-level experts to accompany you, including some shooters." "

  In addition, from the Magic Association, Deploy some natural, wind and fire spellcasters."

  "The total number of expedition members is about fifty."

  ...
