Chapter 701: Exaggerated Harvest
Lance was so strong that he woke up after only one or two hours of lying down, no matter if it was due to fatigue or the pressure from the dungeon.
What was even more outrageous was that he woke up as if nothing had happened, not like he had just come back from the dungeon. Not to mention being tired, he was even a little excited.
You know, other people in the dungeon could take a break while camping, but he never closed his eyes. It can only be said that his physique has become more and more out of the scope of humans.
In fact, Lance was so excited that he couldn't sleep. Who can sleep peacefully with a baby in their arms?
Not to mention Lance's obsessive-compulsive disorder. At that time, the situation was urgent and there was no time to check carefully. How could he bear it if he didn't take a look now?
He couldn't wait to count the harvest.
The raid on the old house and the nest of the Ascension Sect brought a lot of harvest.
First of all, there were a lot of devices, materials, and formulas in the alchemy room...
Lance didn't have time to fully devote himself to research now, but he could take a rough look and sort it out.
In fact, many things that the ancestor made can benefit mankind, but it's a pity that he chose the wrong direction, and they became some dusty technologies, or became the means of cultists.
There are too many things in it, and Lance's understanding of alchemy can only be regarded as general, so he will collect them first, and wait for talents in this field to start research.
Lance doesn't like extraordinary power very much, because it is uncontrollable and unstable, and it is easy to cause trouble, which is the biggest headache for a ruler.
But he doesn't reject it, because this world is inevitable.
Greendale can make a grass sprout and grow quickly at will, and it takes time to add more fertilizer.
So technology and extraordinary are not mutually exclusive, but complement each other. There are some things that technology can't do, at least not now.
Under this concept, Lance attaches great importance to books, manuscripts, and scrolls, which are the carriers of knowledge. One of the biggest gains of the old house is to find the books inherited by the Hamlet family.
The whole study room filled with books is a symbol of heritage no matter where it is placed. You can find a lot of things in it, such as family history, world changes, continental anecdotes, noble relations... These are a lot of relatively basic information, and even some autobiographies of family members.
Of course, there are also precious technical books. You should know that Hamlet was also full of martial virtues back then, otherwise he would not be able to keep this.
So there are a large number of related books, from training and fighting to logistics management, as well as the production of various war props and the construction of military buildings, etc. The war experience of the Hamlet family for thousands of years is systematically organized here.
It’s just that these military books in the cold weapon era are a bit outdated now. With the emergence of firearms, the role of these knights’ charge is infinitely reduced, and those things that a few knights can disperse the army are gone forever.
However, many of the basic knowledge is still beneficial for training the army, especially in logistics management and tactics and strategy. Hamlet lacks these systematic training, and most of them are from wild ways.
It is impossible for Lance to read the books on several shelves in the whole study room in detail. At most, he just glanced at the title and then simply classified them.
The main purpose is to identify whether there are some extraordinary powers or corruption.
As for the scrolls, most of them are some drawings and various building blueprints. Lance also found the ones in the Hamlet city and sewers, but now this thing is of limited use to him.
However, it can be seen that most of these books are ordinary materials without too much abnormality.
It does not involve mysticism, so it is not valued by the ancestors, otherwise the study would not be sealed for many years.
However, it is very important for Lance, which can fill the library of Hamlet, so that students can be exposed to various knowledge and cultivate their vision.
Compared with these books and materials, Lance has no interest in the large number of antique jewelry found in those old houses. He just put them aside after checking that there is no problem.
In his eyes, the value of these things is to exchange money, because he does not need these to show his status.
On the contrary, the large amount of information collected from those laboratories, observatories and other places is valued by him. If there is no threat from the ancestors, I am afraid he is studying those things now.
Lance has a habit of eating, that is, he eats the ones he doesn’t like first and saves the best ones for last.
This habit affected him, that is to say, these seemingly rich harvests are just appetizers, and the real good things are left behind.
Because the butler was killed by himself at the beginning, and after he was out of control, the high-level of the Ascension Sect decided to seal up the extraordinary equipment that was supposed to be used as bait, as well as various strange props.
Then Lance took it all, and the things naturally fell into his hands.
Before, I didn't have time to look at them before I stuffed them into the display room, and now I can naturally count them carefully.
In fact, there has never been a very accurate standard for judging extraordinary equipment, because the church is powerful and has suppressed science, and also suppressed the development of extraordinary power.
Even the Roma organization that specializes in these things does not have a complete system, but analyzes them from the perspective of the power, ability, side effects, etc.
In addition, the troubles of extraordinary power are not just talked about by Lance alone, and other extraordinary people are even more afraid of them.
Some equipment has very powerful effects, but the side effects are also unbearable, so the risk is great.
Similarly, some equipment can be suitable for one person, but not for another, and it is not surprising that there are even restrictions.
So Lance is generally very cautious when using these things, which is why they are rarely mentioned.
Of course, the more direct thing is that Hamlet has too few extraordinary equipment. The decision of the cult leader has indeed blocked Lance's way to obtain equipment, and most of the gifts obtained from the sacrifice are still concentrated on him alone.
[Demon Bell] and [Void Annihilation] are typical equipment. One has too many side effects and is difficult for ordinary extraordinary people to control, while the other is a prop for communicating with the Lame Man, and it is impossible to give it to others.
In addition, Hamlet has management regulations for those extraordinary equipment. The equipment does not belong to them. They only have the right to use it. They have to return it after the mission is completed, and they have to fill in forms for this.
The complex management system and scarce equipment selection make them not very fond of applying, and most of them are confident in their own strength and have no habit of equipment.
Only a few special equipment were given to them by Lance to enhance their strength, such as Reynard's Sunlight Ring, Boudica's Legendary Wristband, Alhazred's Purifying Coral, and...
"Oh no!" Lance suddenly seemed to remember something and subconsciously exclaimed, "I forgot to ask Audrey to return the Touching Gold Talisman!"
At that time, in order to enhance Audrey's strength, he returned the Touching Gold Talisman to her, but he actually forgot about it after the fight. It seems that Lance was really tired at that time.
However, Lance didn't care too much, after all, other people couldn't use that thing, and Audrey couldn't escape.
Now he is more concerned about these equipment. After more choices, perhaps this dilemma will be solved. It is also possible to select a batch of equipment to enhance the strength of the guards.
Lance flipped through it. There were a lot of low-level equipment, many of which were even duplicated, but these things were actually not very effective. The increase was too small and the side effects were too large. Only a small number of valuable ones were selected.
For example, among the famous magic stone series equipment, only the [Speed Magic Stone] is relatively more valuable, because it has no negative effects, but can make people faster.
And there are quite a few of them, which are more than enough to equip the guards.
This kind of unified equipment is more suitable for military management, because the soldiers are adapted to the gun management system.
More importantly, faster speed in battle means that you can kill the enemy before the enemy, and the improvement of combat effectiveness is very considerable.
Lance can actually see that these low-end things are probably collected by the ancestor after sacrificing the entire Hamlet.
Although extraordinary equipment is precious, as long as it can be made, it means that it is not something that cannot be copied.
On the contrary, low-end extraordinary equipment is widely circulated, because the production difficulty is not high, the price is naturally lower, and mercenaries with a little strength may have it.
Not to mention that there must be many extraordinary people in the prosperous Hamlet at that time, the kind that even the church can't stop.
However, although there are many low-end and mid-end equipment, which occupy most of the equipment, the real good things are still behind.
Lance constantly studies and records the situation of those equipment, finds a lot of interesting equipment in them, and constantly selects those that can be used.
Among these equipment, Lance was very surprised to find a good thing.
A bright yellow cloak with golden lines, and the buttons that fixed the cloak were all in the shape of the sun.
Lance understood something just by picking it up. He was absolutely right. He recognized this similar power.
Isn't it the same power as the [Sunlight Ring] that was collected by Tamara and then taken away by him, and now used on Leonard?
And the function of the [Sunlight Cloak] is to absorb the power of light and increase the holder.
Lance remembered Tamara's original description and roughly knew that this was also one of the sets.
In fact, this equipment is nothing in front of many really good things, but finding a part of the set gives him a sense of collection.
Simply put, it's fun, and a man is still a teenager until he dies.
The equipment that was taken out is getting more and more, and it is getting better and better. It can be found that those are getting rarer and rarer, or even only one.
And this kind of equipment can really be called precious, which reflects strength from the side.
The source of these things is probably the relics of Hamlet's master-level extraordinary people at that time.
Because many of them are restricted, these are exclusive equipment for different extraordinary ways. You can imagine the prosperity of Hamlet at that time.
But this is just where it is. There is also a locked display cabinet in this seizure. The things inside can be locked by the ancestor. I don’t know what good things are...
Lance has also learned to open locks. Although his skills are not as good as those of professional rats like Audrey, he spent a little time and quickly unlocked it.
The moment it was opened, it exuded a terrifying breath. Lance didn’t dare to move at all. He closed it with his backhand and reinstalled the lock that had just been opened.
"Damn it! Where did the ancestor get these from?"
Lance was also shocked. He thought they were good things, but he didn’t expect them to be all pollutants. No wonder they were sealed with this, and they were all extraordinary equipment.
He himself was not afraid, but the problem was that he was in the city. If the leaked breath polluted ordinary people, it would be troublesome.
These things should be collected by the ancestor from all over the world. It can only be said that he is too bold to become a god, and dares to touch these things that ordinary extraordinary people avoid.
Other things can be put down, but Lance must carry this kind of thing with him to feel at ease, and he took it back to the display room.
The appearance of this small accident did not interrupt his excitement, because as far as extraordinary equipment is concerned, no matter how many messy low-level equipment there are, they are not as good as those top-level equipment.
And the biggest gain is the ones found in the darkest dungeon.
Needless to say, the pistol is so powerful that it can easily make an ordinary person a sharpshooter, and it is fast and accurate.
As for the negative, it is just a little spiritual restlessness, which is still within the acceptable range.
And the power contained in it makes Lance feel a little familiar.
Lance can't help but rub the [Family Seal Ring] that exploded when he killed the butler at the beginning. The power on it is exactly the same.
And similar to the five pieces of equipment to suppress the lame walker: scroll, map, medicine bottle, tentacle puppet, candle.
These also have similar powers. It is no surprise that this is the equipment made by the ancestor.
Before, because other people were in front of him, he did not have time to take a closer look, but now he can finally take it out.
The power of the scroll is more exaggerated than Lance imagined. Carefully unfolding it can find that it records a lot of various spells and rituals.
Unlike those scattered materials, these are more like the research on life and soul compiled by the ancestor himself.
Lance found this as a treasure. The ancestor is really a genius. If he can digest the things recorded in this scroll, Hamlet's medical technology may have exaggerated development.
Although there is a panacea now, it is destined to be difficult to fully promote it in terms of production. It is not affordable for ordinary people, and Lance does not want to form a dependence.
Hamlet has accumulated some life research, but the research on the soul is really not even started. The only thing that is related is the research on the spirit, and it is still groping.
And this can help Lance carry out related research, saving a lot of cruel and unnecessary troubles.
Lance only read a little bit, the amount of information he needed to understand was too much, and the complex data poured into his brain at once, even he felt uncomfortable.
A happy worry...
If one of the five sealed items is so powerful, the others must be very powerful, right?
Thanks to [Red Incandescent] for the 5,000 reward
