Werewolf Hunting Rules.

Chapter 207 The cause of the incident

After all, Clayton is a foreigner. Although he has lived in Sasha City for several years, he has devoted himself to contacting customers in other areas. He is not familiar with the history of this land. He only knows about the history of this area. The city was originally built around the White Curtain Cathedral - known to travelers as the Twilight Cathedral.

In order to supply the daily necessities of the clergy, a market appeared around the church, and then slowly expanded into a large settlement.

But why such a large church should be built in the wild where transportation is inconvenient, Clayton is really not clear.

In this regard, he confessed frankly.

Schmidt had expected this, since the southern accents of the antique dealer and his daughter indicated that they hadn't been in the area very long.

"Then you know the Dinonians?"

Clayton nodded, he has received higher education, it is impossible not to know this name.

In the long past, the largest ethnic group on this land was the Dinons, but one day the ancient Mansis First "Empire" suddenly decided to go west, and the army invaded the land of the Dinons. When the war was raging, a large number The natural disaster suddenly broke out on this land, not only engulfing many invaders, but also destroying the aborigines without discrimination.

The surviving Dinonians had to migrate from their native lands to what are now known as "Taunton" and "Merenti", but there are now very few people.

"Very well, it seems that I don't need to start from the beginning." Schmidt continued: "Since you know the Dinonians, you should also know about their departure from this land. There was a natural disaster, but the gods of the Dinonians did not bless them, and their people suffered heavy casualties. Therefore, they decided to leave their unblessed homeland and flee to other places to rebuild the kingdom."

He knocked on the table again: "This is an important point, because it is impossible for them to build a new kingdom empty-handed. When they left their homeland, they took a lot of wealth with them. Among them, a group of high-ranking figures set off from here by boat. of."

"Their boat capsized here? Then all the gold sank into the water?" Donna guessed.

With the prosperity of sailing and colonization, publishing houses are selling more and more adventure novels, and girls are also deeply affected.

Schmidt coughed: "It's not for this reason, but the treasures should indeed be in the water - at that time, a Denon general named Di Jie Tali led his fleet to set off here, and history records this The operation did not go well, and as they set out, the Nidalee River suddenly picked up a storm and swept four soldiers into the water. Di Jaetali was so angry that he ordered his men to drain this section of the river-"

Having said that, he glanced at Donna: "This was obviously something that only wizards could do at the time."

Donna felt the pressure.

"They did it as a punishment to the river, and then drained it back, and then the storm calmed down." Schmidt finished the story, waiting for a response.

Julius frowned: "You mean, this is just a lie. They actually used this opportunity to hide the treasure that they couldn't take away underwater, so that they could come back and take it out after the disaster subsided?"

Goatee corrected his statement: "Not only at the bottom of the water, but also deeper in the mud and rocks, otherwise the current may wash away those treasures. This rumor is true, because some people have already found part of this treasure. A century ago, someone picked up a gold coin of that era by the river, and this discovery excited the explorers at that time, and many people came here to hunt for treasure, although most of them ended up with nothing, but they did not choose to leave.”

"And the descendants of these people stayed here to form this town called Revo, that is, my ancestors. And the White Curtain Cathedral, I thought it was built by the church for the same purpose, but it was older ancient."

"Just in the last century, there was a powerful team of treasure hunters who investigated this legendary treasure, but they believed that the treasure was buried close to the city, so they tried to blow up the embankment and silt up the river. Then the mud at the bottom of the river was excavated in a relatively stable environment, and the traces are still there."

Clayton and his group looked at each other.

They were not unsurprised, but if what Schmidt had said was true, they would have had a stronger assistant.

None of the people here are better at underwater operations than the Water Fairy.

unfortunately
The goatee sighed: "But, now only I, an old man, still believe in the authenticity of this treasure, so generally speaking, there will be no other competitors here, as long as we take sufficient confidentiality measures to ensure The treasure belongs only to us."

"That requires us to find the treasure first." Clayton reminded him ruthlessly.

"Mr. Schmidt, you just said that this legend is a long time ago. The treasure was buried tens of centuries ago, and there are countless treasure hunters in the past. I believe they should have tried everything possible. , maybe the treasure has already been obtained secretly by someone with your thoughts one day, so the people who came later could not find anything."

Schmidt stared blankly at the antique dealer: "Do you want to get rich?"

"I want to, but I also have my own job. My daughter will go to school next year. The time has already been booked with the people in the academy, so I can't waste too much time here unless there is any evidence to prove that the treasure still exists here. , I can consider delaying this plan."

"Witches also go to school?"

Schmidt was so surprised that he turned his head to look at Donna, who covered her face sadly.

"If you can dig out the treasure, do you still consider these things?"

These words really reached Donna's heart, and she looked at Clayton with pleading eyes.However, my uncle was indifferent to this offensive.

"I send her to school to make her smart, not to make her rich, so she must go to school."

Clayton's words won the favor of the old hunter. He nodded slightly in agreement, then turned and went into the room, and came out holding a stone after a while.

"I think this thing should prove that the treasure still exists here. This is what I found two months ago. It was lying on the edge of the swamp, covered in mud, with only a faint light shining in the sun. "

He put this stone on the table. It was a mixed purple and yellow stone with many crystal grains growing from the inside to the outside.

"Is this raw gemstone?"

Clayton immediately had a headache. He had wanted to be a jeweler before, which was more prestigious than a rare merchant, and it was easier to integrate into the upper class.But he only tried a few transactions and soon found that he didn't have the talent to make this money, and if it wasn't for the help of his friends, he would probably have been scammed out of all his money.

Now when he sees the raw gem ore, he feels in his heart that he is about to be deceived.

The goatee didn't realize his worries, and just rubbed the stone carefully: "Yes, this stone is not something that can grow naturally in this land. I went to the city to ask the appraisers, and they said it was more Gems that can only be produced in the southern regions."

"Honnerat, the name of this gemstone is Honerat."

Julius spoke suddenly, his eyes wandering among the light of those fine gemstones.

"Mr. Schmidt is right. This is indeed not something that can be produced locally. Only on the edge of the volcano, those gems that condense lava can produce such gems. During the Golden Age to the Silver Age, gems were as popular as gold. As a currency application, unpolished raw ore is also valuable. I thought this treasure might indeed exist.”

The wizard who recognized the gem became excited. Although he didn't take the initiative to speak, his eyes had already revealed his uncontrollable greed.

Donna also had a "must have it" expression on her face, even though she had no idea about money.

"Finally someone who knows the goods."

Hearing Julius' affirmation, Goatee said happily, "Although this is not gold, it is equally expensive, and it is not easy to attract attention when you sell it."

Looking back at his companion's expression, Clayton finally let go: "If the treasure is full of these raw ores, I have a way to make them have a reasonable birth certificate. But we can only stay here until the end of the month, this is the bottom line. "

To be honest, the money that the elders would give has already been used up for repaying debts, and wealth still has a certain temptation for him.

Both companions want to go treasure hunting, and he can't always be that spoiler.

Besides, he was supposed to stay here for two weeks, because of the business—after the purchase, he needed some people to drag the goods to the city in good condition, but recently the horses in the town died more frequently, and he was worried that his two After a week, I still couldn't get what I wanted, so this month's book will not be able to make ends meet.

Although staying half a week longer was against his original plan, it was harmless.

Schmidt thumped the table: "Very well, with your guarantee, we will have nothing to lack now. I still have some information about the research on Di Jaetali's treasure, which I have from the city. You can try to solve these clues with witchcraft. You only need to be responsible for the clues in the water, and I and other helpers I invited will be in charge of the swamp, which also belongs to the river during the peak season. .We've been working on this for a while, and we'll be here to help you when this part is over."

Hearing what he said, Clayton suddenly thought of something, his face changed, but he still settled the matter face to face with him.

When they left Schmidt's house and walked a distance, Clayton whispered to the other two people: "Be careful with Schmidt's every move, we can do what he said first, but wait for the local priest to come back." , we will go back to the city at once."
