Noon, in the castle, in the study.

“This war was led by Lord Akuen himself, and the Icewolf family did not have a Great Knight, so the casualties of the army were not large.” Paris stood at the desk and reported the casualties of the war, “Deadly The soldiers paid pensions as usual, and the wounded were treated and compensated.”

“Very well, how is the spoils of war counted?”

“The count has been roughly completed , Please check it with Young Master.” Paris handed over a paper slip.

Receiving the paper slip, Enzo looked around.

Summarize the spoils of war information and the quantity report. It records that the spoils of war are divided into two categories. Among them, gold coins and silverware are divided into one category. Those looted during the war Slave is divided into one category according to gender and age.

“Did the army still plunder the slave?”

After Enzo used the chip to record the information in his head, he threw the paper slip aside and asked.

“Yes.” Paris nodded, said solemnly “: When attacking Wolfshin Town, the army encountered very strong resistance, so after the attack, Lord Akuen ordered the soldiers to plunder at will, almost All the civilians in Wolfheart Town have become slaves.”

“That’s it.” Enzo rubbed his forehead, and asked with a headache, “: According to the previous rules, how to deal with these slaves?”

“Generally speaking, for slaves plundered in the war, a branch is given to meritorious soldiers, and the rest is shipped to Golden City for sale.” Paris replied, and then suggested “: But now the winter is coming, the slave The price is the lowest in the year. Instead of selling them cheaply, it’s better to distribute them to the iron ore quarry.”

“Okay, let’s do it!” Enzo nodded.

The iron ore farm is the fuse of the war between Triumphant Abyss and the giant wolf. Now that the war is won, the iron ore farm must be well developed and all the slaves are sent to the mine, which just solves the problem of insufficient labor in the mine.

“Is there anything else I need to report?”

“The post-war stability issue is roughly the same, but winter is coming. According to previous rules, Triumphant Abyss City should store food in advance , Otherwise, as soon as it snows, the price of food will double.”

“Then follow the previous rules.”

“Okay, I will arrange it. …..”

The conversation between the two continued for an hour.

In addition to post-war issues, Paris also reported on some of the daily affairs of Triumphant Abyss City, as well as the movements of the families in the surrounding towns. Enzo made a decision one after another based on his own ideas and Paris’s suggestions.

When Paris left, it was already two o’clock in the afternoon.

Enzo told Daisy to prepare lunch. After the meal, Steward Moore of the castle knocked on the door.

“What’s the matter?” Enzo asked, looking at Moore not far away.

Old steward Moore, who has served the Nightfiend House clan for more than 30 years, is now more than 60 years old. His face looks a bit old, but his spirit is very energetic. The beards at the temples are clean and tidy. , The black tuxedo she wore was also meticulous, just like a gentleman.

“I have ordered the servants to count the belongings brought back on the battlefield and put them in the warehouse.” Old Moore bowed slightly and said softly, “Gold coin, jewelry and other things, according to the value of statistics. Clearly, but in spoils of war, I also found a special thing, so I will report it to you.”

“Special thing?”

“It’s a lock I don’t know what’s in the black iron box.” Moore looked helpless and sighed, “The lock of that iron box is very strange. The best locksmiths in the city are helpless. The male servants have also tried to use hammers. , But I can’t shake the slightest.”

“That’s it?” Enzo was a little surprised.

“Not only that.” Moore shook his head slightly and said solemnly. “The surface of the black iron box is covered with weird patterns. Anyone feels very uncomfortable when approaching. He was responsible for carrying it before. Soon after, his servant became cold all over, and one of them even fell into a coma and only woke up after a while.”

“oh?” Enzo aroused a trace of interest, “Where is the box now?”

“In the warehouse, the servants have been ordered to store them separately.”

“Find two strong male servants and bring the iron box over.” Enzo commanded.

“As you wish, Young Master.” Old Moore bowed and exited the room.

After a while, two strong male servants carried an iron box into the second floor of the castle.

The pitch-black iron box is about the same size as a normal box, but the surface is covered by purple texture. It looks strange and mysterious, and it exudes a cold atmosphere. Even if it is far away, Enzo still feels faint Comfortable.

Going forward, Enzo leaned down and tried to open it.

The lock head that locks the iron box has a weird shape. The shape is an oval cylindrical flat body without a keyhole. There are dozens of small rotating parts on both sides, which can be changed with a finger. Their position seems to contain a certain law, giving people an ancient mechanical feeling.

“Code lock?” Enzo thought of Earth’s code lock.

The mechanism that locks the iron box is obviously on the small parts. It seems that only when they are arranged in the correct order can the iron box be opened.

“Although there are only a dozen parts, but according to different arrangements, there are at least a thousand possibilities.” Enzo touched the chin, lips raised”: No wonder the locksmiths in the city are helpless .”

“Chip, analyze the arrangement of code locks, and formulate a deciphering plan!”

If you try again and again with your brain power, I’m afraid you won’t be able to decipher the code lock for half a month. Enzo has a smart chip, as long as you scan the code lock back and forth, and then analyze the probability of its arrangement, you can quickly get the correct answer.

“Analysis…finished!”

The smart chip runs very fast, and after a short calculation, it gives the answer.

“Next, let’s see what’s inside it?”

Enzo be eager to have a try, rubbing his palms, according to the arrangement method analyzed by the chip, Toggling the small parts on the code lock, after several rotations, only a light sound is heard, the code lock bounces, and the iron box opens at the same time, a gloomy chill suddenly assaults the senses.

“Huh…it’s cold!” Enzo couldn’t help but shudder, feeling the temperature in the room drop instantly.

Looking at the moved towards the inside of the iron box, most of the space inside is occupied by black books, neatly stacked, apart from this there are only three purple crystals that are somewhat similar to a Rubik’s cube, and one fist sized, translucent light blue skull bone.
