Chapter 132: Suspected black hands

In the uniform olive grove, Chateau rode behind Hank and looked at the evergreen olive trees.
Perhaps because of the advance of the wind and snow last year, many olive trees had their branches broken, and some of the branches that had been broken and had not had time to be cleaned still had blackened olive fruits left.
Thinking of last year's harvest should be unsatisfactory, but now he has encountered the inexplicable attack of the goblin, and he has repelled many times without giving up. This inevitably makes Xia Duo think of conspiracy theories.
What a coincidence, the goblin did not come last year, but did come this year, and it happened to be just in time when the lord could not be contacted, and then spread out, the news that the lord could not be contacted should be small. If it wasn't for Xia Duo who was just about to upgrade the power of the mage tower, then he didn't know anything about it.
If there is a conspiracy in this, it may be related to the wizard, and it is also a wizard with high authority.
With this thought, Xia Duo entered a state of focus on casting spells. He felt that perhaps these goblins would attack the olive grove so recklessly, maybe it was because of magic. The people who came before were all apprentices and might not be able to find out, but Xia Duo was already an official mage, maybe he could find something from it.
Thinking like this, Xia Duo was not in a hurry to go to the north to see the goblin. He stopped Hank who was leading the way and said, "Go to the village chief. I will check in the woods first."
"My lord—" Hank was about to speak, and Chateau had already driven his mount back to run, helplessly, Hank could only follow.
After Xia Duo rushed out of the olive grove, he saw the a little confused village head, and did not explain, but flew along the forest line by line from east to west.
Due to the limited duration of the mount, Xia Duo could only use it as much as possible, hoping to discover the clues without stimulating a scroll again. ...
Sitting on horseback, passing by the olive trees, Xia Duo had no mind to know the opinions of others. He concentrated all his attention and "observed" the abnormalities of the magic net.
If these goblins are really affected by magic, if there is such a magic, it will inevitably leave traces in the background of the magic net.
Soon, the first line was checked, and then Xia Duo skipped the second line and started directly from the third line. In order to be able to detect the abnormality of the magic net more accurately, Xia Duo set the main sensing range to 5 meters. within.
This distance is almost the best range he can perceive, and beyond this range, it may not be accurate.
On one, three, and five, Xia Duo and his party patrolled quickly. This olive grove occupies a very large area, at least one kilometer in the east-west direction. Xia Duo rode a ride, which took almost 1 minute.
In this way, I don't know how many times it was repeated, Xia Duo felt that someone was calling his name, but at this time he put almost all of his mind on observing the state of the magic net, but subconsciously felt that the voice was not hostile to him.
So he ignored it.
Until, Xia Duo felt the magical aura of the mount under him flashing inexplicably, and the speed was slightly slower than at the beginning. He immediately knew that the duration of the mount was approaching.
Xia Duo, who didn't want to fall from the horse, immediately instructed the mount to slow down, and when Xia Duo got off the horse, before he had time to move his hands and feet, the forest horse that saw it suddenly disappeared in a dim light.
It's as if it appeared suddenly.
"Master Xia Duo!"
It's Uk! Xia Duo looked back, and sure enough, Wu Ke was trotting towards him, "Captain Wu Ke, you are here!"
"Master Xia Duo, what were you doing just now? I called you several times!"
"I think of a situation that may be related to this goblin's change." Xia Duo did not hide it, and said his speculation that there might be mysterious magic in the olive grove.
Of course, he did not disclose the news that the lord could not be contacted.
"Before, did anyone suspect that goblins were attracted by magic?"
"Of course there are, but we put in individual goblins and found that they would only destroy the olive tree nearby, and would not look for anything. If it is really magic, wouldn't the entire olive grove be magically cast?"
Uke obviously also has a certain understanding of magic. He didn't think anyone could cast spells on such a large olive grove.
In this regard, Chateau did not refute. Uke speculated from the existing results, but Chateau directly assumed a man behind the scenes. If there is a man behind the scenes who wants to achieve this effect, there must be other ways.
Magic is so magical, how can you be sure that there is no such magic?
Xia Duo is still more inclined to his own speculation, that is to say, there may really be a man behind the scenes.
Thinking about it this way, Xia Duo also became suspicious of the people in the village. Although the lord ordered them to look after the olive grove, if someone threatened them or used profit to lure them, it was impossible to guarantee that they would not betray them.
And of course the village chief was the most likely to betray. For a while, Xia Duo's brain was open and he doubted everyone, but in the end it was just the doubt that stayed in his mind.
Here, Wu Ke saw Xia Duo suddenly silent ~EbookFREE.me~ and reminded softly: "Master Xia Duo, now the goblins are almost gathered, if you don't clean it out as soon as possible, it will be more and more difficult to clean it up later, and It will hit the olive grove, and we cannot fully guard it with insufficient manpower."
"Oh, yes, go and clean up the goblins first."
Xia Duo put away her suspicion for the time being, and was going to take a closer look at the villagers who came here later, and was very malicious towards the goblin Xia Duo. He was almost frightened by the goblin as soon as he passed through.
Later, during the Orc War, although he led a team to clean up a lot of goblin dens, he had not personally hacked and killed him. Now that his bloodline awakened and his strength increased greatly, his desire to fight was greatly increased.
...
The north side of the olive grove was originally a shrub. During the previous few cleanings of the goblins, it had all been chopped down, but the goblins seemed to have spotted that piece of land, and even if there was no shelter, they still piled up there.
Xia Duo looked at it from a distance, crushed by nothing, and could not count how many there were, or to say nothing, there were dozens. I really don't know where these goblins came from.
"Captain Uk, there are a lot of goblins, ten of you—"
"Mage Xia Duo, don't worry, those goblins don't belong to the same tribe. Sometimes they fight, they even fight themselves. Besides, there are still them."
As he said, Wuke pointed to the villagers who followed, and Xia Duo felt a little funny when he mentioned the villagers. The clothes of these villagers were still neat, all linen clothes.
But weapons were all kinds of things, like pitchforks, sickles, sticks, hoes, and machetes, you could use almost anything you caught. Xia Duo seriously doubted their combat effectiveness.
But since Uke had confidence and had cleaned up several times before, Xia Duo reluctantly believed them.
