Chapter 1904 Searching

Holding an Odachi sword in his hand, he took a deep breath and looked around to see the endless desolate Gobi desert.

After walking for three or four miles, I didn't see a single living thing except the vultures hovering above my head.

This place looks more desolate than the twelfth floor of the underground city, but it is actually the junction of the three countries of Dashai City, Airui City and York Han City.

Due to the lack of water resources and the scarcity of living things, this desolate land was abandoned by three countries at the beginning of the legendary heroic period. Today, it is called the junction of the Three Kingdoms, but it is actually an unclaimed land. .

It is said that in the early days of the legendary heroic period, horse thieves and bandits used this place as their base, but over the next hundred years, they gradually abandoned this base.

The reason is very simple. It is too desolate here, and there is not much edible vegetation to grow. It cannot even meet the standards of a temporary stronghold.

Since then, no one has paid attention to this piece of Gobi Desert until two hundred years ago, when Fort Vicky received a joint and generous invitation from the three countries and dispatched a substantial geological exploration team.

After more than a month of continuous investigation, they concluded that the soil here is very suitable for growing crops, but what is puzzling is that although there is no problem with the soil, it cannot grow vegetation.

This conclusion not only troubled many geological exploration scientists in various countries, but also disturbed the hearts of the people in the three countries, because in the eyes of ordinary people, a piece of soil that is obviously very good but cannot grow crops must be cursed. land.

In order to stabilize the people's hearts, the monarchs of the three countries of Dashai City, Ai Rui City and York Han City decided to block relevant information channels and vigorously suppressed relevant speeches, even using iron and blood methods.

In the end, the powerful methods achieved good results, and the rumor was completely forgotten among the people 40 years after it was launched.

Whether they were afraid of the iron-blooded method or had really forgotten it, in short, except for the historical documents privately collected by the royal family, there was no relevant public opinion.

Although the rumors have ended, people still stay away from this wasteland.

Before the invention of the magic airship, businessmen would rather take a long way around than set foot here.

Even those troubadours who boast that they are not afraid of heaven and earth will constantly pray in their hearts like "May the God of Creation bless me" when passing through this desert.

Now, in order to find the real tomb of Frederic, I have set foot here.

Out of dislike for the desert, the airship pilot chose to land a few kilometers away from the desert and refused to move forward even one meter, even if he was criticized, scolded, or even convicted. He was also unwavering.

See, that's the power of rumors.

I can't fire a professional airship pilot just because of this trivial matter. In desperation, I had no choice but to carry a heavy package and walk for a long distance.

According to the map calculation, my current location is near the mausoleum, but I cannot calculate the specific coordinates.

"Hey, brat, are you afraid?" Odachi's voice sounded in my mind.

I wondered: "What's so scary?"

"That is a real tomb of an ancient king. There must be a lot of hidden weapons inside."

"I'm used to hidden weapons and the like, and it's not the first time I've robbed a king's tomb. I've robbed the tomb of Carter Adams, the first head of the Carter family and the first monarch of Airey City, and Fred... I also robbed Ophelia's tomb, and then the tomb of the last emperor Philed Rupert. If you include Philed Alexander's tomb, this is the fifth tomb I have robbed. "

Odachi joked: "Hey, I didn't expect that you have quite a lot of experience."

My head was full of black lines and I was a little speechless, so I said, "Can't you read my thoughts? Why do you bother to ask me again?"

"Because it's boring," Odachi said confidently.

I no longer paid attention to Odachi, who was making a series of weird laughs. I used my hands as a shelter to block the bright sunshine and looked around.

"It should be around here, but why can't I find even the slightest trace of it?"

Anguished, I thought for a while, reached out and took out the call crystal, and pressed Master Dewey's connection.

Ten seconds later, Master Dewey's voice came from the crystal: "Are you encountering a problem, Xiaoyi?"

"Yes, foster father."

Later, I told him that I had arrived at the coordinates, but could not find the entrance to the mausoleum. I wanted him to help ask what the characteristics of the entrance to the mausoleum were.

Master Dewey said "wait a moment" and then lost his voice.

A few minutes later, Fred Alexander's voice rang out from the crystal: "Is it Xiao Yi? I'm Alexander."

"Yes, I have heard your voice, respected Holy King, His Highness Alexander."

"Just call me His Highness Alexander." His tone was natural, and his voice was still very pleasant: "Master Dewey said that you have arrived at the coordinate location, but you just can't find the entrance location, right?"

"That's right," I said, "and please tell me the characteristics of the entrance."

"Characteristics. Characteristics." Philed Alexander thought for a while and said a little uncertainly: "I remember that there were two huge stone statues on both sides of the mausoleum gate. One of them was a huge spider, and the other was a giant spider. A horned monster."

"Spiders, monsters with horns?" I frowned and asked in confusion, "Are they your pets during your lifetime?"

"No," Alexander explained: "They were monsters that I personally led the army to destroy. In order to prove my merits during my lifetime, my followers suggested using the images of these two monsters as statues to guard the entrance to the tomb forever."

"You personally led the army to destroy it?" I asked in surprise: "What kind of monster needs such a big fanfare?"

"It can be regarded as a disaster for one party," Alexander said: "Before I led the army to go on the expedition, these two monsters had destroyed at least four small countries."

"A monster that can destroy a country!" I exclaimed, but then I calmed down.

During the period of melee, as long as you have some strength, a piece of land, and can recruit tens of thousands of people, you can dare to establish your own country.

Even if a country like this is destroyed, there seems to be nothing to be afraid of. After all, none of the monsters that can be called a disaster are simple. If they can't even defeat such a small country, then they will be called so. What a shame for the disaster!

Then I brought the conversation back on track again and asked if there were any other characteristics.

Alexander regretfully told me that it was gone.

After hanging up the call, I looked around for a long time, but I still couldn't find a rock like Alexander described, and I couldn't help but feel a little discouraged.

Sitting cross-legged on the ground, he took out a small water bag, pulled out the stopper, and took a sip.

The slightly viscous liquid swirled in my mouth and then flowed into my stomach, leaving only bursts of burning heat.

The bag contained not water, but wine.

The finest wine.
