Chapter 173 23 Are You From Castel?

Chapter 173 -23- Are you from Castel?

"Enough! If you want to go to the inner mining area to find the legendary dragon, wait until you can lift the mine cart and then discuss it with me!"

The old werewolf Logan glared at Noah fiercely.

"Move it!"

The little werewolf boy looked unconvinced, came to the side of the mine cart, rolled up his sleeves and squatted down.

However, he was too small, even if he hugged the mine cart, he couldn't touch the whole side of the mine cart, let alone lift it.

Even if he used all his strength, he just blushed, and the mine cart didn't move.

He even stumbled and fell because of too much force, and fell to the ground with a cry, causing other miners who had already arrived in the cave to laugh.

"Hahaha... Little Noah, wait until you grow up before trying again!"

"Don't waste your energy. With his small body, he might not be able to move it when he grows up..."

"Oh, Noah, you can't do it, you really can't do it..."

"Okay, give Noah some face, he still needs to find a wife!"

"Hahaha..."

The miners laughed until Old Logan glared at them fiercely and quickly fell silent.

"Hmph, brat!"

Old Logan grinned and stopped arguing with the werewolf boy. Instead, he led the troops deeper into the mine.

Noah sat next to the mine cart, sulking alone.

Charlotte and Sebastian looked at each other and nodded secretly.

Getting the hint, Sebastian stepped forward and came to the little werewolf, smiling and asked:

"Noah, have you seen a dragon in the mine?"

When the topic of dragons was mentioned, the little werewolf instantly became energetic.

However, before he could answer, the laughter of other subhuman miners came from all around:

"Haha, has he seen a dragon in the mine? If he really has seen a dragon, can he come back alive?"

"Hey hey hey... that's not necessarily true. Didn't little Noah say that the monster in the mine... oh, no, it's a dragon, and dragons don't eat people!"

"Eh? Really? Then where are the missing miners?"

"Who knows? Maybe they were left behind by the monster deep in the mine to mine!"

"Hahaha! Shouldn't they still be paid? Dragons are very rich, so they should pay more than the Castel family, right?"

The miners talked a lot, and it was obvious that they didn't think the monster deep in the mine was really a dragon.

Of course, although they always joked about the depths of the mine, they would subconsciously lower their voices whenever they mentioned the monster, and it was obvious that they were also full of fear of the monster legend deep in the mine.

In Charlotte's opinion, the miners' teasing of the little werewolf was not only for fun, but also to divert their fear of the depths of the mine.

Charlotte saw that although there were rumors that the monster in the mine was a dragon, not all miners believed it.

However, the little werewolf was obviously convinced.

In addition to him, although the old werewolf Logan avoided the main point, judging from the information he had revealed to Luf, the old Logan probably also believed that there was a dragon deep in the mine.

However, the difference between him and Noah was that Noah believed that the dragon deep in the mine did not eat people, while Logan obviously thought that the things in it were very dangerous.

Obviously, Noah and the old werewolf must know something, or see something.

Noah glared at the demi-humans who laughed at him, but in return he was laughed at even more by the demi-humans.

It was not until Sebastian smiled at them at Charlotte's signal and slightly released his breath that the group of demi-human miners instantly shut up and turned around to dig honestly.

"Enter... Enter the extraordinary..."

One miner's eyes widened and he almost lost his voice, but his companion quickly covered his mouth:

"Shut up, keep your head down and mine!"

After that, almost all the miners lowered their heads, watching their noses and their hearts.

Working in the Castel Silver Mine for many years, it is normal to occasionally see some ignorant extraordinary people sneaking in, but even those who have just entered the level are not something they can afford to offend.

It is better to have less trouble than more. At this time, pretending that nothing has been seen is the best way to survive for these low-level alien miners who are too lazy to even look at the mine supervisor.

Not only that, perhaps because it is too stressful to stay with such a mysterious person who has entered the level, the subhuman miners subconsciously began to stay away from here, and soon hid far away, never daring to get close again.

There are also a few who want to pull Noah away, but after looking at Sebastian in the middle, they finally lowered their heads silently and quickly left with the others.

After a while, only Charlotte and a few others were left in this mining area.

"Superhuman? Are you a superhuman who has entered the level?!"

Noah also widened his eyes.

However, he quickly reacted and his expression was instantly full of vigilance:

"You...you are not here to mine! You deceived Grandpa Logan!"

After saying that, the little werewolf suddenly stood up and was about to chase after Logan and others who had already walked away, but was quickly stopped by Lu Fu:

"Noah, calm down, we are not bad people."

"Uncle Lu Fu..."

Noah stared at Lu Fu in a daze, his eyes widened, his expression full of complexity:

"You...are you also in the same group with them? Are you deceiving us too?"

Luff sighed:

"Noah, although I brought them here, I sincerely intend to become friends with everyone in the mining area. You should have met my people. We sincerely intend to settle in Castel."

"Then...he..."

Noah looked at Sebastian warily.

Lu Fu was silent for a moment and said:

"He is my benefactor and my friend, and he means no harm."

Luf's words did not dispel the little werewolf's suspicion. He still looked at Charlotte and others warily:

"Who are you? Mercenaries? Or bounty hunters? What is your purpose?"

Charlotte glanced at Sebastian again, and Sebastian immediately understood.

He took a step forward, bowed slightly to Noah, and said elegantly:

"Sir Noah, let me introduce myself again. I am Basel, a transcendent who was hired by the Castel family to investigate the missing miners in the silver mine."

"The Castel family? Wait...is it the legendary Castel family? The owners of the mining workshop?! The wealthy nobles?!"

Noah's eyes widened.

But soon, he frowned again, still full of vigilance:

"How can I believe what you say? The Castel family has never asked about the missing miners. Why are they suddenly sending investigators now?"

"Not to mention, if you are really extraordinary beings of the Castel family, why did you sneak in secretly?"

"Of course it's because we don't trust the nobles in charge of the Castel Mining Workshop. As for why we suddenly came to investigate now, I think you must have heard about it. Naturally, it is because of the order of the Earl who has just returned from the family."

Sebastian said plausibly.

After hearing what Sebastian said, the little werewolf's eyes widened even more.

Obviously, for such a young child, Sebastian's answer was full of too much shock:

"My Lord Count...are you talking about the legendary saint of the Holy Royal Court, the daughter of the God Lord Harald?"

Charlotte:...?

What the hell happened to this rumor?

Sebastian couldn't help but glance at Charlotte and smiled at Noah:

"The Earl is indeed very holy, but...the so-called talk of a saint in the Holy Royal Court is just a rumor."

Noah looked at Lu Fu again, and Lu Fu nodded and said in a deep voice:

"Noah, I dare to swear to the great Blood Totem, he is indeed a member of the Castel family, and he is indeed a person sent by Count Castel."

Noah was silent.

Perhaps some older demi-humans who have experienced many vicissitudes of life are much more wary and find it more difficult to gain trust.

But for a young werewolf child, this conversation had already given him some confidence in Sebastian's words.

"I know that the nobles in charge of the mining workshops have a token similar to the Black Eagle emblem, which seems to be the symbol of the Castel family. It is said that each one is a magic equipment and is priceless..."

"If you are really from the Castel family, do you have a token?"

He continued to explore.

However, even though he said this, his tone has softened a lot.

Blackhawk badge?

The kind of magic equipment that the Castle family can locate?

Sebastian's heart moved slightly.

He looked at Charlotte, who smiled slightly and took out a handful of Black Eagle badges from her arms:

"Is it this one?"

Noah's eyes widened when he saw a bunch of badges in the girl's hand:

"The letter... the token! It's really the kind of token the steward holds!"

"But...but why are there so many? Did you steal Castel's warehouse?"

"No, wait...Lesa, are you also an investigator hired by the Castel family?"

Charlotte smiled slightly:

"Yes, I am also here to investigate the truth about the mine. I have a good relationship with Count Castel. These things were given to me by her. If you can help us, I can give you one."

Noah:…

"Who knows if it's true or not."

He looked at those shiny badges, swallowed hard, and whispered.

However, now that things have come to a point, he already believes most of it.

After all, there is no need for an advanced transcendent to deceive a weak little werewolf.

If you really want to get some information from him, even if he is unwilling to say it, the extraordinary person has plenty of means to make him speak.

"Come with me, there are many people here and I will tell you whatever you want to know."

Noah looked around and said.

Charlotte and others followed Noah to a corner of the cave. Noah sat down against the wall of the cave:

"I can tell you everything I know, but... I also have a condition."

Sebastian smiled and said:

"Please say."

Noah looked determined:

"If you want to enter the mine to find the dragon, please take me with you."

Sebastian did not directly agree to Noah’s request, but asked instead:

"Why are you so obsessed with the legendary dragon in the mines?"

Noah was silent for a moment and said:

"Because I want to ask it, how did my brother go crazy, where did my brother go, and I want to know what my brother did back then. I don't believe he would be bold enough to steal mithril slag... "

"Your brother?"

Charlotte's heart moved slightly.

"Yes, my brother was once a miner in the mining area, but... he has disappeared and was punished by the workshop for stealing mithril slag, which led to all the subhuman miners being whipped, and my brother's reputation among the tribe was completely ruined."

The little werewolf's ears drooped down and he pursed his lips.

Stealing mithril slag?

Charlotte's heart moved.

She remembered the story of the missing miner told by the old werewolf that Luf said.

Unexpectedly, the protagonist turned out to be Noah's brother.

She sighed:

"My condolences..."

"No, it's okay, I'm fine, I've let it go a long time ago, but... I want to find out what he has experienced. I know my brother's character. He has always been upright. I don't believe he would do such a stealing thing. Perhaps only the dragon can tell me the truth. This is also the purpose of my entering the mine to work."

Noah took a deep breath and said firmly.

"So... you really have seen the dragon in the mine?"

Sebastian asked with interest.

However, this time Noah shook his head:

"No, I haven't seen it."

After saying that, he raised his head again and said seriously:

"But my brother has seen it, not only that... my brother and it are friends, in the past... my brother often told me stories about them."

"They met in the mine and formed a friendship in the mine."

"My brother didn't tell anyone about this because he was worried that a mercenary group would come to trouble the dragon. In the past few years, my brother has always been the most famous miner in the mine. Every time he can mine a large amount of mithril ore, it is it that helps behind the scenes."

Good guy, there is actually a dragon in the mine?

Charlotte couldn't help but look at Sebastian, and they saw a hint of surprise in each other's eyes.

Being able to become friends with humanoids and live deep in the mithril vein, could it be... a golden dragon?

Before coming here, Charlotte hinted that in the world of Miria, if there is any kind of dragon that likes to eat precious metals the most, then... it must be a golden dragon!

Not only that, this kind-hearted metallic dragon is indeed likely to become friends with humanoids.

"So... was the mithril mine in Castel really eaten up by a giant dragon?"

Sebastian asked.

Charlotte also pricked up her ears.

However, Noah frowned:

"Mithril mine?"

"No... Although there are all kinds of rumors in the mine, my brother once said that the dragon eats meat, not ore. My brother used to secretly bring food to it! The mithril mine should not have much to do with the dragon."

Noah shook his head and admitted.

"Eat meat?"

Charlotte was stunned.

Gold dragons... don't eat much meat.

"Yes."

Noah nodded:

"Brother said, it was a black dragon, a real black dragon!"
