Mage Veigar

Chapter 14 Gold Coins
The second floor of the casino.

Vega entered a huge study room under the guidance of the bearded man.

It is hard to imagine that a rough guy who runs an underground casino and works as a spy would have such a luxurious study. There are more than ten bookshelves in the study, and the solid wood table in the middle alone is worth a lot of money.

Click.

The bearded man turned the switch and a bookshelf against the wall opened automatically.

Well, I have to admit that what was shown in the TV series was not entirely fake. The habit of hiding things by the people from this alien world was not much different from that on Earth. Vega didn't even have the mood to complain.

Looking into the dark chamber.

As there was no light at all, and it was a dark night with strong winds, the dark chamber was pitch black and it was impossible to estimate the exact size of the space. Vega could only rely on his intuition to judge that it was no less than 40 square meters.

The bearded man said cautiously, "Sir, the documents are in the secret cabinet. This is all I know. Please keep your oath and let me go."

"I'm sorry sir, but not right now."

Vega pointed at the dark entrance and said, "I haven't found the important document yet, and I don't know if there is any danger in this secret room, so I would like you to continue to lead me until I find the important document."

Vega's words seemed to be within the expectations of the bearded man. He took the kerosene lamp and led the way into the secret room. "I only heard from the boss that he hid an important document in this secret room as a bargaining chip to threaten the United Kingdom, but I don't know where it is hidden. No one except the boss can enter this room."

The bearded man introduced things as he walked, and he lit up the kerosene lamps on both sides of the entrance.

Ok?
Vega seemed to have sensed something, and he subconsciously tightened the cross sword in his hand.

The lights come on.

Vega discovered that this was a long corridor with no end in sight. There was a corner about 20 meters ahead. If the costume dramas in his previous life were correct, this corridor looked like it was purposely built with a mechanism.
boom.

With a loud bang, the secret door behind him closed automatically.

Did the crow's mouth come true?

Veigar's heart was filled with anxiety. He shouted to the bearded man, "Open the door quickly, or I will kill you now."

The bearded man said in panic, "Sir, this is my first time in this secret room, and I have no idea where the mechanism to open the door is located."

"3."

"Sir, I really don't know anything."

Vega didn't say anything, but put his sword on the bearded man's neck.

"2."

"Sir, please believe me."

There was murderous intent in Vega's eyes, and the bearded man keenly sensed the breath of death.

"1."

When Vega counted to 1, the sword directly knocked the bearded man's head off, and the blood from the carotid artery splattered half of his face and military uniform bright red.

Why did they suddenly kill the bearded man?

He said that it was his first time entering a dark room, but he skillfully found the kerosene lamp and lit up the entire corridor.

For a moment, Vega felt that his intelligence was insulted.

In addition, he refused to open the secret chamber even when faced with the threat of death. It was obvious that the bearded man had done this with the determination to die. Vega was not a soldier specialized in torture, and when he could not get anything out of him, he naturally had no interest in talking nonsense with a person who wanted to die. He might as well use this free time to find a way out.

As for the important document he mentioned, Vega no longer had any hope.

He strode forward with a cross sword in hand. If he was worried about being trapped here just ten minutes ago, he was no longer worried now, because he found that after killing the bearded man, as the last bit of magic power flowed into his heart, he finally advanced.

A strong magical power gushed out. Boom.

A punch hit the stone wall of the corridor, and the wall was already cracked. Vega roughly estimated that the overall attack power was about 1 times higher than that of a level 1.5 apprentice. With this kind of attack, it only takes three times to directly break the wall and escape.

Without the threat to life, curiosity arises.

Vega continued to walk inside with a calm look, not taking the "unknown" in front of him seriously at all. After all, he was now a level 2 professional. Even if there were mechanisms, they were only some mechanisms for dealing with ordinary people. How could they work on a professional like him? Don't forget that without magic weapons, you can't break through the magic defense of a professional.

At the end of the corridor, Vega turns right.

What comes into view is a room of about 20 square meters, which is about 40 square meters including the corridor in front. There is a locked metal box in the corner, which is very conspicuous.

Could it be that the important document that the bearded man mentioned is real?
Vega strode towards the locked box in the corner and hit the lock with his sword. The iron lock was just an ordinary iron lock and naturally could not withstand Vega's powerful attack and fell off instantly.

shhhhh--

The mechanism in the room was activated the moment the iron lock was violently broken, and arrows attacked Vega from all directions, blocking any possible blind spots for escape.

Vega didn't take it to heart.

Because the arrows were just ordinary arrows, the impact on Vega was probably equivalent to a mosquito bite. Vega, who had just been promoted, certainly did not have his magic power exhausted, so this round of volleys was just a lot of noise but little results.

Open the box.

"Gold, gold coins."

Veigar discovered that this box was almost full of Imperial gold coins, at least tens of thousands of them. Could this be a treasure chest dropped from a dungeon?

A knowing smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

This is tens of thousands of gold coins.

The first thing that Vega thought of was his magic weapons and combat skills. With this big box of gold coins, he could arm himself from head to toe. He could also buy a big house in the central area and find a girl to marry...

You're thinking too far ahead. He's just a child.

"This is……"

Vega found a document bag on top of the gold coins. He opened the bag and found that it was a United Kingdom document.

He took a look at the document and was startled: "This is not a document at all, but a map that is more valuable than a document? If this map is handed over to the regiment..."

《Kareni Contact Map 1》

This is the name of this map, and the contents of the map are all marked with the United Kingdom's underground intelligence network in the northern district of Kareni City. With this map, the imperial army can completely follow the clues and blind the eyes of the United Kingdom in the northern district of Kareni.

This is a great military achievement.

Vega's hands were shaking as he held the map. With this military achievement, he would be able to rise quickly. He would definitely be promoted to a warrant officer or a second lieutenant. If he worked harder to earn more military achievements, he would be eligible to be recommended to the Military Academy for further studies as a lieutenant.

The Officers Academy itself was in the imperial capital.

As long as you successfully graduate from the Military Academy, it is almost certain that you will be assigned to the Central Army to perform security or logistics work, which is the real rear area.

Vega carefully hid the map on his body, and then looked at the box of gold coins.

A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Lucky."

Moving the boxes, Vega prepared to leave.

shhhhh--

As soon as the box was moved, another round of arrows came.
