Chapter 1794: Bizarre theft

How can a man who loves freedom and adventure willingly be bound to a mine?
Klein Huohu wanted to refuse Mr. Hodge's recruitment, but when he read the letter, he was silent.
Yes, he really wanted to refuse, but Mr. Hodge gave too much money, so much that he embarrassed to refuse...
Brother Klein thought about it, freedom is indeed valuable, but it’s a pity that romance can’t be eaten, but it doesn’t matter. However, compared with taking risks in his head every day, the brothers generally desire to live a stable and wealthy life, since Hodge The gentleman invited him to express his sincerity with a lot of gold coins. It would be better... just go to the mining area for a while to talk about it.
The experience of the Klein team is not special. Over the past six months, Mr. Hodge has swept the cheque book to recruit troops. Now the total number of formal employees working in the mining area has exceeded 3,000.
In addition to free miners, Mr. Hodge, who is rich and rich, also bought slave labor through his own network.
Today, the total number of slaves serving in the mining area has exceeded 10,000, distributed in hundreds of pits that are not visible in the sun, working hard all day long under the whip of the supervisor, using his blood and sweat in exchange for increasing production of high-grade magic crystal ores. And these ores are packaged as collateral for the imperial authority to issue gold banknotes, which has become a "lever" to spur imperial currency reform and a "ballast stone" to stabilize people's hearts.
However, a series of bizarre cases in the abyss mining area in recent days have made this seemingly solid "ballast stone" show signs of shaking.
As soon as Joan walked out of the mine station, he saw four familiar figures head-on. It was his old friends Klein, Grey Bird, Gemodo, and Klein's left-hand Scholez.
"Brother Joan, you are finally here. We have been waiting for you for half an hour!"
Klein happily greeted him, spread his arms to embrace the young mage.
Joan and his old friends greeted each other one by one, realizing that their faces couldn't hide their anxiety, and opened the door to ask Klein, anxious to find him, what was the matter.
"It's not for the serial theft case I mentioned in the letter!" Klein frowned, "In just one week, the magic crystal warehouse has been stolen three times, and two tons of coarse crystals have been lost. The thieves are still at large!"
"Mr. Hodge is very concerned about this matter, and urges our security department to solve the case as soon as possible, arrest the thieves, and recover the stolen goods." Gray Bird followed Klein's remarks, "The thieves were very cunning. Surrounded by our security team, there was nowhere to escape in the warehouse. However, I don’t know what they did in the end. They actually disappeared under the circumstance, and turned the warehouse security who was the first to call the police into a stone statue!"
"Become a stone statue?" Jo Ann was taken aback. "Grey Bird, do you mean that the thief has petrochemical capabilities?"
The blind lady Zheng focused on her head.
"What did Medea think about this?" Joan asked next.
Medea has collaborated with him on a paper on the effects of petrochemicals, and is itself a snake-haired banshee who is naturally good at "petrochemical gaze" and can be described as an expert in petrochemical problems.
"My lady came to the mining area yesterday, and after checking the petrochemical security guards, I was convinced that it was not the toxins or supernatural abilities that caused the petrochemicals. It was more likely to be a 6-ring petrification."
Grey Bird recalled Medea's account, and then said: "Miss, of course, is capable of lifting petrochemicals, but she heard that Mr. Klein was interested in asking Dr. Vader to help you investigate the theft, so she smiled and said that the statue was petrified. The security guards of the Stone Blind Barbarians waited a while, Dr. Vida, you personally lifted the petrification, and incidentally asked the hapless guy about the scene of the crime scene, maybe you can get clues to solve the case."
"I don't understand this. Removal of petrochemicals is just an easy job for Medea. After that, I can still question the security clues. Why should I wait for me to do it myself?" Qiao An asked in surprise.
Grey Bird sighed and replied in a low voice: "My lady is so scheming. If she casts a spell to remove petrification, she will ask the security guard what happened on the scene of the incident out of curiosity. The more you know, the more you are involved in this. The deeper the incident, the inevitably have to participate in the investigation of the case, which will delay her a lot of time, it is better not to intervene from the beginning, to save worry."
"Media, this guy, is really lazy, and pushes me on any troubles!" Joan spit out.
Grey Bird shrugged and smiled: "You didn't know my lady on the first day, and it's unclear how lazy she is? As she often said: If you can lie, don't sit, if you can sit, you don't stand. ."
Joan recalled Medea's style of conduct. It was really like this. She followed the so-called "energy-saving principle" that she prides herself on. Once she encounters trouble, she immediately lies in plain clothes to death and can not mix as much as possible.
For example, when Joan and Klein and others tracked the flail snails and explored the magic crystal ore veins, they once invited Medea, who met on the way, to join the prospecting team to make a fortune together. However, the lazy woman simply refused, the reason is too troublesome .
Later, Joan and they discovered the super-magic crystal mine and made a fortune. Medea missed this opportunity, but did not show the slightest remorse, and stayed at home all day, still seeing fame and fame as a cloud.
Joan withdrew his thoughts and turned to look at Gemodo: "Elder, you are a level 10 druid, and you are the chief physician of the mining area, can't you cast a spell to lift petrochemicals?"
The old marsh toad swelled and swollen his eyes, refuting angrily: "Stubborn boy, are you stupid in reading and reading? Our druid's list of natural magics does not even have the spell of "Break the Enchantment", you let me take it Head to lift petrochemicals?!"
Joan scratched his head awkwardly. His knowledge of natural magic is far less profound than that of arcane, and he really made the mistake of taking it for granted.
"Mr. Klein, where is the petrochemical security guard, I will cast a spell to help him restore his freedom, and ask for clues about the thieves."
"Brother Joan, don't worry, Mr. Hodge wants to get to know you. He asked me to ask you to sit in his office and have a cup of coffee." Klein said with a smile.
Joan didn't really want to get in touch with the company's top executives who had landed in the Empire.
Following Klein to Nick Hodge’s office, the servant opened the door and invited them into the house, and saw a tall middle-aged man standing up from behind the desk with gray-blue eyes giving a tough and capable look The impression, the huge eagle nose, is like the cartoon image published in the newspaper.
Although Joan knew this was not polite, he couldn't help staring at Mr. Hodge's comically exaggerated aquiline nose and gave him a second look.
