Chapter 391 The Archaeologist's Determination (4600 Words)
Tu Fu's bold conjecture came true the moment he saw the demigod Manco Capac in white.
really,
The influence of the Rosicrucian Society in the Southern Continent can easily do this kind of thing.
I don't know whether it was deliberate or coincidental, but Tu Fu's former teachers and friends were also included in the investigation team to Ingaso this time.
If you don't follow along, no one will know what troubles will happen when you get there.
Seeing the other side reaching out his hand, Tu Fu's face was gloomy, and he emitted a sharp gaze, as if warning him not to talk nonsense.
"Mr. Aesop Andersen, I heard Mr. Orwell talk about you before. Students who graduated from the University of Michigan also tend to major in this direction, so we also want to invite you."
Manco Capac shook hands with a smile, and made a decision for Tu Fu casually.
Tu Fu lowered his voice: "Mr. Kapak, it turns out that you have already made a plan."
Capac still had a smile on his face, and explained by the way:
"No, you misunderstood. This is not a temporary decision. In fact, we have contacted the gentlemen present a few months ago, and the professor who is interested in the Incasso culture came here voluntarily.
Miscar Stark's level of humanities and social sciences is the best in the world, this is normal, right! "
They did have an agreement about visiting the Incasso ruins before, but the time given by Tu Fu at that time was unknown, obviously intending to delay it.
But the Rosicrucian Society seemed impatient, and directly brought a few acquaintances around Tu Fu,
It's a bit intimidating.
Discussion room.
Discussing data and data with many experts, the exquisite gentleman wearing an exquisite suit and high hat, Professor Charles Kane, overheard the key words of the conversation between the two at the door, and subconsciously raised his head to look at Tu Fu:
"Oh, a child from Michigan University?"
After seeing that strange face, he immediately frowned, as if he was searching for information about this face in the memory bank, "If you are a student of the Academy of Humanities and Social Sciences, you will look a little strange."
"Sir, we actually met in Mississippi. He is two grades higher than us."
Sensing the awkward atmosphere, Mr. David naturally stood up to rescue Tu Fu.
Miss Bella Wayne next to him also nodded like a millet pecking at rice, "That's right, Ka...Mr. Andersen, he is quite a nice person."
Even the two students of his own said so, Professor Kane didn't think about it for the time being, and said politely, "Well, since they are all students of our school, it's better to wait for the interview to be over. Let's have dinner together."
"My pleasure."
After hearing Tu Fu's permission, Professor Kane smiled, and then turned his attention to Mr. Capac, the rumored benefactor, "Mr. Capac, you just said that you have discovered some of the things that Incasso once left behind. Ruins, what's going on here?"
"So, those things were really picked up from abandoned ruins."
"How far has your research institute progressed now?"
All the professors in the discussion room were very anxious, eager to get all the information out in a few words.
"Everyone, don't worry, I'll show you something interesting."
Manco Capac raised his hand to signal a pause, his eyes glanced at Tu Fu intentionally or unintentionally, and naturally meant to reveal the current information to him:
"Actually, just a few days ago, my team and I took great risks and used some dangerous methods to forcibly open the lost city.
I paid a lot of price along the way, but I just stayed at the entrance and couldn't get in anyway.
The carvings on the stone slabs there are all the handwriting of the early Incasso Empire. Unfortunately, some accidents happened later, and it took us a lot of effort to get out of it.
So the information you have obtained is the result of my companions using their lives to obtain from that ruins. "
Those things were naturally placed on the tables of the experts. Some of the dilapidated cultural relics unearthed contained only a few words.
If there are words or symbols on it, it is probably the result of the Incasso civilization.
"It all looks normal."
Tu Fu inspected the area carefully, and found that most of them were worthless things. After thousands of years of fermentation and digestion, only the outlines of individual objects could be seen clearly, and even the words on them were completely destroyed.
While others were studying the unearthed old objects, Tufu squinted his eyes at Manco Capac.
Their treaty did not say that the Rosicrucian side has the right to mine first.
"Kapak, are you not going to keep the agreement?"
Tu Fu's mood was extremely calm, he opened his lips slightly and muttered the word "shield" silently, and secretly used his extraordinary power to limit the spread of the voice between them.
"I'm sorry for this. But this is a decision made by the organization, and I have no right to interfere. Some old people in the meeting are dying, and they really can't wait.
They must unearth Ingaso's hidden secrets as soon as possible, hoping to draw some useful information from that country. "
With a few words, Manco Capac shrugged off the responsibility to those who were not there,
"As compensation, we only need you, Mr. Capet, to accompany the team at the foot of Whiskey Mountain, and we will deliver the hidden scholar potion of Adventurer Path Sequence 4 to you."
"Oh, it seems that your exploration failed, otherwise you wouldn't have invited so many people."
Tu Fu suddenly wanted to laugh, the so-called verbal agreement was indeed unreliable, if this allowed the Rosicrucians to go deep inside, all previous agreements would be voided.
"To be honest, we paid a very heavy price for our reckless behavior, and we really underestimated the greatness of the Incasso Empire. Even with the knowledge we have, it is not enough to find the exact landmarks. Just looking for the entrance is a toss Half dead."
Manco Capac's eyes were focused and he looked extremely serious.
"Since it's so dangerous, how dare you let ordinary people go there! Even your people fell in, and you let them be buried together?" Tu Fu's voice rose several decibels.
"Mr. Capet, please listen to me, and in fact, whether you are a transcendent or not, it is the same after entering that place, and the risks borne by both parties are no different.
If everyone is on the same starting line, who will harm whom? "
"What's the meaning?"
"Even a superhuman at the demigod level, once he breaks into the lost capital, his supernatural power will be suppressed so strongly that he will become no different from an ordinary person.
It is precisely because we did not know such information that we rushed in and lost many people. "
The other party confessed that directly presenting this important piece of information to Tu Fu could be regarded as compensation for their mistake in opening up the ruins in advance.
"Suppressing extraordinary power?" Tu Fu lowered his head in thought.
Captain Arthur's diary did not tell about this incident. He only knew that at the end of his departure, he only knew that in order to resist the enemy, all the people of that country were soldiers.
"As for your saying that I want to harm them, although we have never regarded ourselves as good people, we have not done any heinous evils, and we would not have coerced the people around you to join us in order to let you help us. You are too underestimating Rosicrucian.
The materials and intelligence we gave them were all true, and we exchanged the lives of our organizations, and as archaeologists, they should bear certain risks.
Mr. Capet, you should know best that the reason why the University of Michigan's archeology major is the best in the seven-school alliance is not as simple as talking about it. "
"I will tell the teacher the truth. If he knows your origin and is unwilling to go to the Ingaso ruins again, you are not allowed to stop him."
Tu Fu just responded indifferently.
"It's a deal."
Capac agreed readily enough.
In just a moment, he reached a tacit agreement with the representative of the Rosicrucian Society.
"Wait, is that... the engine?"
While other people were studying the cultural relics, Mr. David recognized all the unearthed objects at a glance.
Most valuable thing.
Nothing is better than the rusty scrap iron. Many professors left after just looking at it. There are still traces of organic oil on it, which is out of place with other unearthed antiques.
"Perhaps, this is just an object that was strayed into that area, but the archaeologists of our research institute think that this object is very valuable, so they brought it together."
Manco Capac just smiled slightly, "Our archaeologists also said that such an invention might have been made in the Tertiary Epoch."
As soon as His words came out, many people couldn't help but smile.
For serious archaeologists, it is already a qualified joke.
Only Tu Fu's facial expression remained unchanged. He was the most familiar with the Ingaso civilization, so it was no surprise that some engines and the like were unearthed.
At that time, if many technological masterpieces of the Southern Continent Empire are really revealed and re-presented in this world, it must be a very exciting thing.
The original two-hour exchange meeting was delayed for half an hour because of Tu Fu's arrival.
The teachers of the Tabur Royal Academy were very satisfied to observe the exchange, and the experts and scholars in the industry were very satisfied to watch the antiques. Mr. Manco Capac, the representative of the Rosicrucian Society, got the cooperation he wanted.
In a very happy atmosphere, everyone said goodbye to each other.
Everything looks perfect.
Only a few famous professors were left in the conference room, whispering in situ. After this matter was over, the students would be interviewed.
Only Professor Kane, with a confused expression on his face, was dragged and dragged by two students to the next private conversation room.
Of course, there is also Mr. "Aesop Andersen".
"David, Bella, what did you bring me here to tell me?"
Charles, Kane joked lightly, "Do you have relatives who need my help in this college?"
"Professor, long time no see."
With his back turned to him, Tu Fu took off his mask as a matter of course, revealing a lazy smile.
"We have already verified that he is indeed Tu Fu."
Seeing the professor's pupils dilated with excitement, David and Bella helped him verify his identity and took the initiative to talk about what happened just now.
"My God! You're still alive, you bastard."
Professor Kane's reaction was not much different from Bella's. He was so excited that he almost roared, and put his arms around Tu Fu's neck, shaking his body vigorously:
"Those old guys in the school are looking forward to you, can be active in the North Continent in the past few years, and make some achievements in the past two years. Ever since they knew that you were a pirate, everyone thought you into the belly of the fish."
"Sir, if my identity goes to other countries in the Northern Continent, if I make some achievements, I will be seen through sooner or later. It's better to hide away." Tu Fu said rather speechlessly.
"Pirates? By God!"
Miss Bella covered her mouth in horror again when she heard the word pirate.
I don't think that Mr. Capet, who has always been gentle and gentle, will become a dirty, murderous pirate.
"Being forced by life, I just wanted to ask for food at first. Speaking of which, I have never done anything bad."
"Do you want to live? You have become the 'Seven Martial Seas'. It's really amazing, Mr. Jack Sparrow." Professor Kane's words were somewhat eccentric.
This incident is already known to everyone in the high-level. A certain kid who is restless in Göttinghagen never stops even when he goes to sea. It almost made the war between the two countries advance two years.
Young Master David, who only knew the news, only had strangeness in his eyes:
"If you are the rumored Jack Sparrow, that means those rumors are true."
"Most of them are true, such as the annihilation of the Blue Samurai Pirates, the Black Medan, becoming the Qiwuhai..."
Tu Fu was about to pick out a few heroic deeds, when David Smith's eyes instantly turned into money symbols:
"So, you really scammed hundreds of thousands of crowns in Narnia, the city of paradise?"
"If you don't tell me, I almost forgot about it."
Tu Fu lined his chin. He remembered that most of them were cash, a lot of gold and silver, and all kinds of rare treasures from the sea.
Some of them were brought back to Göttinghagen by Sophie, and most of them were stored on the Santa Maria and sealed.
I dare not spend a penny.
Without the perception of the outside world, you will not be hungry or tireless. Extraordinary materials have transcended the scope of money, and naturally there is no place to spend money.
"Before that, I have to say this first!"
As soon as they interrupted his train of thought, Tu Fu realized that he still had something serious to say, and he looked at Charles Kane solemnly:
"Professor, let's talk about what happened just now. The identity of Manco Capac, the person behind the expedition team, is very complicated. Most of them are from the Incasso Empire or other tribes in the southern continent." descendants.
Their influence spreads all over the southern continent, which is quite dangerous. I don't recommend you to follow them. "
In very short words, he quickly explained the origin and intentions of this group of people.
Indeed, as Kapak said just now, although they are not good people, they have not done bad things with extremely bad influence.
Tu Fu can't attack them from a moral perspective, he can only remind the professor that this group of people has no clear purpose, and cooperating with them is seeking skins from tigers.
"Since Tu Fu has said so, I think it's better not to go this time."
David spoke anxiously, and he instinctively looked at Bella Wayne, but the latter bowed his head and remained silent, refusing to make a statement. Professor Kane asked after briefly thinking about his words:
"Tu Fu, so the information they provided is accurate, right?"
"yes."
Tu Fu unreservedly confided a piece of news to Professor Kane.
What the group dug up was exactly what he saw in a certain log book, which is enough to prove that the information source of the Rosicrucian Society is correct.
"Since it's true, Tufu, do you still remember the things that your teaching director, Mr. Walter, talked to you when you were in school?"
"Of course, I will never forget." Tu Fu said honestly, he still can't forget the things in that class.
The nine-person dense exploration team who arrived at the Red Earth Highlands discovered the strange demons. The notes they left before they fell into complete madness successfully made the Church of the Seven Gods take away the revived strange demons.
The expedition team from the University of Michigan who visited the hometown of the giant dragon all died strangely in their dreams, causing a complete dragon corpse to be discovered by later generations.
The weird and treacherous ghost ship incident has accelerated people's investment in technology, resulting in today's iron-clad warship.
The horror incident in the neighboring village of Miskar Stark University. The professors who arrived used ancient spells to sacrifice their lives to prevent the evil god from coming.
Even the original owner's parents went to the polar region with desperate thoughts.
"I have been a professor at the University of Michigan for more than ten years. Compared with those who struggle in the crazy world, I have no great achievements. Compared with your parents, it is not worth mentioning.
Perhaps this life will also die in a mediocre way. If you give up because of this reason, it is really not reconciled. "
Professor Kane, who has always been lazy, talks about this ancient country with longing in his eyes.
"That's the lost Ingaso civilization! This is the only chance for people my age."
Looking at Miss Bella Wayne, the same silence was maintained from beginning to end.
for a while,
Tu Fu finally understood why the death rate of the "Sanjia" majors at the University of Michigan was so high.
