Diary, end.

The handwriting on the last page is slightly sloppy, as if the little girl named Nali was a little depressed when writing these words, and the words are also crooked, as if she is about to fall asleep.

But after reading it from beginning to end, Airl still didn't find any information related to these ghosts and the monsters in the underground pits recorded in the diary.

Arrow read the diary from beginning to end several times again, and the conclusion was still the same. Apart from being able to see that this diary was really very old, he really couldn't come up with any results.

Before Arrow closed the diary, Napa floated over and glanced at it again. The cat lay on Arrow's head again, yawned and said -

"All in all, based on your description, I really don't know what kind of monster is in the underground passage. I'm afraid I have to see it myself. As for ghosts... this is really not my strong point."

Ai Luo laughed and said in a slightly joking tone: "Isn't it your strong point? It turns out that our vice president has something he is not good at dealing with? I thought you were a decathlete."

Napa didn't argue with the little girl. She just yawned and said, "I'm too lazy to tell you. What are you going to do with this diary?"

Looking at the diary, Ai Luo curled his lips and said: "I haven't thought about it... However, this is an antique from hundreds of years ago. If it is sold, it should be sold for a lot of money, right? The text recorded on it can be said to be here

The actions of the last governor over the past year should be valuable to historians."

Napa pressed her head and said slowly: "Is it valuable? Well... maybe. If they can understand the words on it, it will be quite useful."

Ai Luo was slightly startled: "Understand the words? What does it mean? These words... are not difficult to recognize?"

Napa snorted coldly and said slowly: "Isn't it difficult to recognize? This is just for you. These characters are ancient characters from hundreds of years ago. Although they have some similarities with modern ones in terms of writing methods,

There are also many words that have been completely transformed. I see that there are many words in this diary that do not belong to modern writing at all. You can even recognize these, and the top student is indeed a top student. At first, you said that you did not recognize the words in the mine.

, when you asked those two city dwellers to help you translate it, I thought you didn’t understand these ancient texts at all.”

Even though Napa seems very relaxed now.

But the smile that had been hanging on the corner of Ailuo's lips involuntarily solidified slightly.

After a brief pause, he held back his hand, opened the diary again, and carefully observed it from beginning to end.

Really! I just read it in one breath before and felt nothing, but now when I checked it again, I found that I actually understood a lot of ancient Chinese inexplicably?

Ai Luo confirmed that he had not specifically studied ancient Chinese before.

But now, I don’t have any obstacles when reading this diary aloud!

Why?

Why am I self-taught without a teacher?

You...are a genius?

Just kidding!

No matter how talented you are, it is impossible for you to be such a genius that you can directly understand unknown knowledge without studying!

So...why is this?

Arrow looked at the diary and thought hard, but no matter what he thought, he didn't understand why he suddenly understood these ancient languages.

But just as he continued to think hard like this, the door of the guild was suddenly pushed open, and Brad ran in panting, and suddenly lay down next to Arrow's table.

"President! President! Huh...huh...no...no good! President!"

Brad was out of breath, but that didn't matter.

After all, Arrow didn't expect the big man to be able to accurately describe what happened. He immediately asked the parfait in this guy's pocket——

"(Fairy language) What happened?"

Parfait flew out of Brad's pocket and said in a panic: "(Fairy language) President! It's not good! There are many soldiers, many, many soldiers suddenly came to Pelican Town, and then we

The town was surrounded! They also said they wanted to catch the traitors! None of us were allowed to leave the town!"

Airl was stunned for a moment, thinking about what this meant. At this moment, two people walked in following Brad's footsteps. As soon as they saw Airl, smiles appeared on their faces.

"President Arrow, business is booming!"

The ones who came were none other than two imperial soldiers, Whiskey and Polyester.

Seeing these two soldiers, Ai Luo immediately felt confident and said with a smile: "So that's it. Your actions are really big enough. It scares our members."

Whiskey glanced at Brad, who was still breathing next to him, and said with a smile: "It looks like you haven't told your members yet? Yeah, yeah, yeah, you have a very strict mouth. His Excellency, the Earl, likes people like you the most."

Ai Luo also showed his smile: "Of course. But please don't worry. Although my members sometimes don't know how to assess the situation, as long as I explain the things they are not allowed to leak, they will never say more.

Word."

Whiskey nodded, and Polyester on the side said: "Okay, let your members get ready, take the things you need to bring, and go with us. Your Excellency, the Earl, is almost here, and we can't keep our distinguished guests waiting.

"

Arrow responded and asked Brad and Buffy to put on their combat equipment, while he went to get some healing aerosol and magic aerosol. After waiting for a while, Coco and Cream, who were going out to work, also

After returning, he prepared himself under Ai Luo's instructions and followed the two imperial soldiers out of the guild.

As soon as he went out, Ai Luo could immediately feel the tension in the air.

Pelican Town was originally sparsely populated, but now there are soldiers patrolling the streets. When walking to the central square, you can clearly see the round cheese mayor and a large number of townspeople standing there, looking around.

The soldiers were trembling, obviously too frightened to speak.

This time is different from the one with the Iron Wolf Guild.

After all, they were facing the regular army of the Blue Bay Empire. This was not someone who casually asked for resistance.

However, when the mayor saw the Mermaid Song Guild coming with Whiskey and Polyester, he immediately waved his hand towards this side as if asking for help, and shouted loudly: "President Arrow! President Arrow!"

Arrow smiled, looked back at the whiskey and polyester, and said, "Although I can understand it, making you so nervous... might be counterproductive, right?"

Whiskey laughed and said: "Yes, one of the original intentions of hiring the local guild in Pelican Town is to ensure the emotional stability of the local townspeople. I trust you, go ahead and tell them if they want to leave Pelican Town

It's okay, but you need to register and you can't go to those key locations."

After a brief salute to the whiskey, Arrow then led Mermaid Song towards the townspeople over there.

When these townspeople saw that Ai Luo was talking and laughing with the Imperial soldiers, they immediately came up with expressions of panic and fear, especially the round cheese mayor. The chubby boss said very nervously: "

President Arrow! I beg you, please your guild! Our Pelican Town is really just a small town, we can’t withstand such a series of scares! What happened this time? I

I just ask that no matter what happens, please don’t cause any trouble to our town, okay? I’m begging you!”

It's human nature to not want to cause trouble, and Ai Luo understands it. So he won't have any objections to the mayor because of his current expression of eagerness to distance himself from the relationship. What the management is most worried about is accidents, isn't it?

Ai Luo put a reassuring smile on his face and said: "Boss, and fellow townspeople, you really don't need to be too nervous."

"I have already talked with the Imperial Army. It is true that the Imperial Army is here to hunt down a mutinous team. However, this team is not currently in Pelican Town. The reason why the army is stationed here is to restrict the movement of Pelican Town.

The purpose of entering and exiting is entirely to prevent those traitors from sneaking into our town. Therefore, if you want to leave the town, you only need to go through some slightly troublesome registration. As for your safety, please don't worry about this.

, as long as you don't go to areas where traitors may be hiding. As for which areas may be hiding traitors... the soldiers will tell you, and will ask you to leave immediately if you accidentally step into the restricted area. As long as you don't.

If you mess around, I guarantee that you won't be in any danger."

After all, Arrow's Mermaid Song has been stationed in Pelican Town for a while, and has a pretty good relationship with the neighborhood leaders.

In addition, Ai Luo's tone was very gentle and calm now, as if nothing happened. This made the faces of the townspeople feel a little relieved.

"Then...why do those armies discuss with you Mermaid Song first, instead of discussing with me, the mayor?"

There was a bit of dissatisfaction in Round Cheese's tone, as if he was a little offended because his authority was slightly deprived.

Ai Luo laughed again and said in a very complimentary tone: "Boss, what you said is that you blame me for not consulting with you? Oh my, the real reason is because the traitor is very cunning, and the Imperial Army needs someone who is familiar with the surrounding terrain.

The locals came to lead the way. We happened to know those two soldiers, so they came to us first. Speaking of which, the mayor, if I came to inform you first, I asked you to lead the army to find the rebels, or even fight.

, would you like to?"

Round cheese is very precious.

This is a good thing - both for him and for Arrow.

The mayor kept shaking his head. After pondering for a moment, he nodded slightly and said: "I see, you want to fight? Then I, the mayor, should stand aside for a while. Fighting is up to you.

Of course it’s best if the guild does it.”

Seeing that the mayor had agreed, Ai Luo added another fire: "Of course, our Mermaid Song is responsible for dealing with the rebel team outside the town, and the town also needs a leader who can appease so many of our neighbors.

.I think this task belongs to the boss! And I believe that the Imperial Army must also feel that only you, boss, can stabilize the entire town at this emergency moment!"

After receiving a few words of encouragement, Mayor Round Cheese's eyes immediately lit up.

His expression also changed from being afraid of bending over just now, to straightening his back proudly. Then he patted his chest and said loudly: "Okay! No problem! I will arrange the things in the town, just go ahead and take care of it."

Catch all those rebels in one fell swoop! But try to be safe, after all, I don’t want to see you missing arms or legs or missing a few people.”

Arrow smiled, and after Round Cheese turned around to appease the other townspeople, he led the guild members back to Whiskey and Polyester and gave a thumbs up.

"Let's go."

Whiskey smiled and continued to lead the way.

————

Following the road to the north, out of the town, the closer you get to the Changmian Mountains over there, the tighter the defenses become.

Fortunately, the north of the town is mostly gravel land, and there is no land for farming, so there are no farms, so the difficulty of clearing the land is much lower.

From a distance, everyone in Mermaid Song could see various camps and tents set up at the foot of the Evermian Mountains.
