Chapter 958 Prince Breshear
Everyone here at the Tower of Twilight is also very excited. Basel, who is known as the Hermit of Doland, Connor Reese who calls himself the Ancient Demon God, and Angelano who was originally reluctant to come here, all It's not much better than the people from the Flash Gold Chamber of Commerce. Facing the tombs of the High Elf Royal Family, no one could remain calm. Even those who had explored the Sky City and the tombs of Osric could not suppress the excitement in their hearts.
However, Lin Li had experienced big scenes after all, and he couldn't help but think of other problems while being excited. If it is a palace ruin, even if there are various and top-level protective measures, there will still be a shortcut after all. After all, the royal family still has to live in the palace, and it is impossible to make the way in and out too complicated. But mausoleums are different. Once you enter, you won't expect to come out again. Some mausoleums even trap all the craftsmen inside and become burial objects. Given the importance that high elves attach to mausoleums, especially those belonging to the royal family of high elves, I am afraid that the protective measures must be as high as possible.
At the same time, when guessing that this ruins might be a mausoleum, Lin Li couldn't help but think of the fact that the expedition team's camp outside the Grand Canyon was inexplicably attacked by a large number of undead creatures. Is there any connection between the two?
No matter what, after a while everyone finally regained a certain level of calm, and then they dug and explored more carefully. Everyone knows that since it is a royal mausoleum, in addition to the possibility of even more amazing wealth being buried, the risk of exploration is also more than ten thousand times higher than that of ordinary ruins.
"It seems that this ruins cannot be easily entered yet. The mausoleum of the high elf royal family, I am afraid that even if a strong man from the holy domain breaks in randomly, he will suffer a big loss." Hoffman withdrew his gaze towards the depths of the canyon. He said to the top leaders of the two surrounding forces: "It's best to confirm the identity of the owner of the tomb. Then if we are lucky, maybe we can have a little more insurance."
However, Huo Yancheng's idea was good, but not everything went as expected. After about half a day of exploration, although a lot of things were unearthed, not much could really provide useful information. More than a dozen stone scepter horns like that were dug out, some complete and some incomplete, but the identities of the owners of these tombs are still unknown.
"I wonder if President Hoffman has ever heard of Davos." Lin Li suddenly asked.
"Davos? You are not talking about the academic master Master Davos, are you? He is the leading archaeological authority in the entire Kingdom of France. How could I not have heard of it? However, it is said that he has been missing for two years. It has been more than ten years, otherwise I would have invited him here no matter what this time." Hoffman was a little surprised at first, then seemed to have thought of something and then asked Lin Li: "Does Master Ferre know Master Davos? ?”
"Haha, I don't know him very well, but Master Basel is very familiar with him. If you don't mind, Master Basel can invite him to come over and have a look." Lin Li said with a smile. After all, this operation was a collaboration between the Twilight Tower and the Flash Gold Chamber of Commerce, and the information was provided by the Flash Gold Chamber of Commerce. Therefore, in order to avoid leaking information from his side, Lin Li did not let Basel invite Daqings to participate. But now it seems that there is no need to keep the news secret that both the Mithril Alliance and the Caesar family's exploration teams are here. However, out of respect, Lin Li still wanted to ask Hoffman for his opinion first.
"Really? That's great. Master Davos is an authority in the field of archeology. If you can invite him here, maybe you can find some clues." Hearing Lin Li's words, Huo Daman was very surprised. Although there are many archaeological experts in the exploration team at this time, and Hof himself can be called an authority, everyone sees things from a different perspective. Maybe the Davos master will have more unique insights. must.
After Basel and Davos explored mining from the Far North, Basel considered the previous agreement with Lin Li and returned to Doland. Perhaps Davos fell in love with the life there or had some thoughts about the ruins, so he continued to stay in the dwarf tribe. The dwarf tribe is not that far away from the Gargas Grand Canyon. With the strength of Basel's legendary mage, he can fly back and forth quickly using the flying technique.
However, Lin Li naturally couldn't let Basel fly over with Davos, so he summoned the skeletal red dragon from the summoning magic lamp and asked Basel to drive the skeletal red dragon to pick up Davos. The skeletal red dragon itself is the tyrant in the sky, and has a much greater advantage in the direction of flight than the legendary mage who uses flight. In about half a day, the skeletal red dragon reappeared above the exploration team, flapping its flesh wings and slowly falling.
After the skeletal red dragon fell to the ground, Basel jumped off the dragon's back with a middle-aged man wearing an animal skin robe and a beard.
"Exactly...is this Master Davos?" Hoffman couldn't believe his eyes and quietly asked Lin Li beside him.
Looking at the middle-aged man who was walking here with Basel and looking around excitedly, Lin Li couldn't help but have a wry smile on his face, nodded and said, "I think that's right, Basel." Master once said that Master Davos has been living in a dwarf tribe for more than 20 years, and this situation should have been sorted out before coming here."
"Hoffman, Ferre, this is Master Davos."
Basel led people to Lin Li and Hoffman and gave them a brief introduction.
After hearing Basel's introduction, Hoffman finally put away his doubts and greeted Davos enthusiastically: "Master Davos, there has been no news from you for more than 20 years. Everyone thought you had encountered an accident. , I didn’t expect to see you again, it’s really an honor for me.,”
"Oh, hello, didn't you say you have found something? Come and bring it to me..." Dapais is worthy of being an authority in the field of archeology. He has an almost paranoid enthusiasm for archeology, and he does not care about the president of the Hoffman Flash Gold Chamber of Commerce. He said something casually about his identity, and was eager to see what was unearthed.
Hoffman was not angry at Davos's perfunctory attitude. He still said politely: "Master Davos, please go this way. All the items we have excavated recently are placed here." He turned sideways and made a gesture. , with a please gesture, he led Davos towards the place where the relic items were placed.
When he saw the excavated items, Davos's eyes suddenly shone, and he rushed forward almost like a hungry tiger pouncing on food. He picked up each item and observed it carefully. He looked at it with great seriousness and devotion, as if the surroundings were full of food. Everything seemed to disappear at this moment.
"Master Davos, we estimate that this ruins is likely to belong to a high elf royal family. In order to provide additional insurance for subsequent explorations, we hope to verify the true identity of the owner of the tomb from the things that have been excavated. His identity..." Hoffman followed Daqings carefully while explaining the purpose of inviting him here.
"Yes, it is indeed the relic of the high elf royal family. You said it is a mausoleum?" Davos put down the stone piece in his hand, picked up the stone scepter placed not far away, and said, "Is it because I found this? This high elf The ceremonial artifacts used by the elves in the sacrifice ceremony symbolize the status of the owner of the tomb in life. However, now that you have found this, don’t you still know the identity of the owner of the tomb? "
"Well..." Hoffman's face turned red, and he couldn't help but mutter to himself, if the identity of the owner of the mausoleum has been determined, is there any need to invite you over? However, he also heard something from Davos's words. It seems that the identity of the owner of the tomb is on this stone scepter?
Daqingsi straightened up, looked around at Hoffman and others who were following him, then pointed to the decoration on the top of the stone scepter and said: "High elves have a strong sense of hierarchy, and this is not only reflected in some large In terms of aspects, it is also reflected in some subtleties. Take the stone scepter used in this memorial ceremony as an example. The decoration of the Eternal Tree can only be used by the royal family. However, there are also status differences between the royal family and the royal family. , is also the decoration of the Eternal Tree, and the difference in the number of branches and leaves means the difference in status during life."
"Can you tell from this stone scepter? Then the owner of this mausoleum..." Hoffman did not expect that a simple stone carving pattern could be so exquisite.
Daqings glanced at Hoffman and said unceremoniously: "Take one and count it yourself. The eternal tree pattern on this stone scepter has thirteen main branches and thirty-seven branches, symbolizing There are thirteen major surnames of high elves and thirty-seven noble families.
Such decorations mean that the status of the owner of the tomb, Sheng Jing, is only one level lower than that of the High Elf Queen. In the history of high elves, the number of royal families has always been very rare, and those who can hold such a status are extremely rare, so..."
"Could it be...could he be the younger brother of Queen Azshara of the High Elves, Prince Breshear?" After all, Hoffman also has a lot of research on the history of the High Elves. After hearing Davos's prompt, a name suddenly flashed in his mind. .
"Well, it seems that President Hoffman has done a good job in studying the history of high elves. In the entire history of high elves, the only one who can hold such a status is Brasil, who is the younger brother of the queen of high elves." Davo Si nodded and put the stone scepter back.
But everyone else couldn't help but take a breath of air when they heard the name said by Hoffman. Understanding history is the most basic prerequisite for getting involved in archaeology. Everyone present may not have the most attainments in archaeology, but with their understanding of history, the name Brashear is no stranger to him.
In the era when the high elves ruled the world of Anriel, if Azshara, the supreme queen of the high elves, was the first person in the world, then Prince Brashear was the well-deserved second person in the world. Above people. In the entire history of the high elves, there is no other person other than Prince Breshir who can hold such a prominent position.
It is said that the huge territory controlled by Prince Breshir at that time included the current Dwarf Kingdom and the Orc Kingdom. However, unlike other high elf lords, Prince Brasil is not very keen on ruling. He basically ignores his own territory and only devotes all his energy to the fields of art such as painting, sculpture, and music, and He has extremely high attainments in various fields.
In that era named after darkness, Prince Breshear's almost indifferent way of governing was undoubtedly quite different from other high elf lords. As for the various tribes under his rule, life under this and quite gentle rule is like living in paradise compared to other areas. Especially when it comes to the dwarves, he didn't even station any troops in the dwarf kingdom and completely allowed them to live freely on the Arctic ice sheet. Some people even say that if Brasil had not died that year, the dwarves might not have joined the resistance coalition.
Therefore, unlike the deeds written with the lives and blood of other Ho clansmen like the great lord Osric, most of the life stories about Prince Breshir in history are about his achievements in the field of art, even now There are also many poems, music and other artistic works that are widely circulated on the Anriel continent. The deep-seated hatred that people have for the high elves is not reflected in Prince Breshir at all. UU Reading www.uｕkanshu.net
However, don’t think that because Brashear devoted all his energy to the field of art, he is a weakling who needs to rely on others for protection. The noblest high elven royal blood flowing through his body allows him to reach heights that are difficult for ordinary people to reach in terms of personal strength without spending any more energy.
Legend has it that in order to find the spiritual power of creation, Brasil went deep into the endless abyss alone more than once. From the works he created about the Endless Abyss in various fields, it can be seen that his understanding of the Endless Abyss is probably a bit better than that of the great lord Osric.
After basically confirming that the owner of the mausoleum was Prince Breshear, who had made his name in history with his extremely high artistic attainments, the huge machine of the Glitter Gold Chamber of Commerce immediately started to work with all its strength in response to this information. It has to be said that the Glitter Gold Merchant Guild deserves to have started out by digging for ruins. In just three days, the legendary assassin Jia sent out brought back a large amount of information.
In the tent of the temporary camp, the senior officials of the Shining Gold Chamber of Commerce and the Dusk Tower sat around the table, and on the table was a thick pile of information. The most eye-catching thing was taken out alone, a somewhat damaged looking drawing. This drawing was purchased by the Glitter Gold Chamber of Commerce from a dwarf. Although it was broken and obviously incomplete, everyone could tell that it was a design drawing of a mausoleum. a.
