Chapter 160: Rare Goods
what's the situation?
It took a lot of effort for Lynch to restrain himself from picking out his ears. Now he not only doubted his ears, but also his brain.
Among the extraordinary powers in this world, apart from the legendary soul-shifters who have just met, the eighth-level and ninth-level soul-shifters are the top combat power. They are strategic-level forces. Just like nuclear weapons in previous lives, a country I can't see many of them. For example, in Rhine City, the top combat power is an eighth-level soul-shifter, whose name seems to be...Ole?
The corner of Lynch's mouth twitched. It felt like he opened the door to his house in the morning and found someone smiling at him at the door of his house carrying a nuclear bomb.
It’s not that I’m afraid or nervous, because it’s hard for my brain to accept this concept, and it always feels unreal.
The old gentleman, Chairman Ole, is eighty-five years old this year. He is wearing a formal suit, has white hair, a single-sided spectacles, and an upturned mustache. When his lips move, his beard seems to come alive. He looks very interesting.
The old gentleman stared at Lynch with squinted eyes under his single-sided glasses. When he spoke, his eyebrows and beard moved together, giving him a lively and energetic feeling, which made Lynch very fond of him:
"Classmate Lynch Leviev, we heard that you are also working as an antiquities detective. In order to prevent your archaeological knowledge from making mistakes and being unable to meet the needs of your work, we are here to test you on behalf of the Archaeological Association. The first step The title is, at the end of the Third Age, there was a city named Zul'Grassar in the area of the original Kingdom of Rand. It was said to be a city founded by some kind of alien. According to speculations about the city at the same time, the buildings there should be common at the end of the Third Age. But some scholars believe that the city is special and still uses the megalithic structure from the end of the Second Age. Different schools of thought often argue about this. Please answer whether it is a tile structure or a megalithic structure. "
"Wait a minute, I don't comment on professional titles, why did the exam suddenly come out? And I am studying intermediate education, and the teaching content only goes back to the middle of the Fourth Era. Who knows what the end of the Third Era is, you guys The content of the exam has exceeded the stipulations, and something else is wrong..."
If it weren't for the cast on his leg, Lynch felt that he should have jumped out of the window and escaped, but now he could only lie in bed and accuse crazily:
"This is not an exam, right? How can you test students with questions that several professional schools are unsure about? You clearly know something, so you came here specifically to commit academic plagiarism."
"Huh? It seems the news is correct." The old gentleman danced excitedly, his eyes flashed, and even his hoarse voice lit up, "That's not important. I've been holding it in for sixteen days. Tell me what it is."
"Stones, big rocks."
"How can it be!"
Professor Dartmond beside him let out a scream, and the old gentleman Ole also wrinkled his face and asked loudly:
"Are you not mistaken? This is unreasonable. There was no shortage of wood in Rand at that time, and Zul'Glashar should have been replaced accordingly."
Seeing two little old men with a combined age of over 150 years old arguing like two children, although Lin Qi was questioned, he did not feel offended. Instead, he felt amused and spread his hands:
"I'm sure I'm not mistaken. I don't know the reason, but most of the buildings in the city, including doors and furniture, are made of stone. I guess it was a deliberate choice. Maybe it has something to do with the residents inside. Those aliens don't care. The speed and strength are much stronger than ordinary people. I doubt that wooden objects can last for a few minutes in their hands. Moreover, they seem to be symbiotic with the invisible children. I wonder if those aliens will destroy the wood."
"Yes, that's great. It turns out that ghouls would coexist with invisible children in the Dark Ages. Come on, give me a pen and paper."
The old gentleman had completely lost his gentlemanly demeanor. Lin Qi even suspected that if he was just a little slower, a level 8 expert would be ready to hit him. Considering that the other party's power might easily demolish Apartment 221, Lynch immediately took out a pen and paper from the bedside table and handed it over respectfully.
Chairman Ole wrote quickly, mesmerizingly recording a few words of Lynch. He suddenly raised his head and stared pitifully at Lynch with his two small eyes: "If there is anything else, tell me."
It seems that this is an academic talent from another world.
Lin Qi's heart softened and he comforted him like a child: "There are still many things, it's very complicated. How about I sort out my thoughts in the next few days? I'll go back to school in a few days and tell you all about my experience during this trip. ?”
"Are you sure?" The two old gentlemen shook their hands at the same time, stopped and stared at Lynch, "This knowledge is a blank in archeology, and every item is a historical mystery. Are you really willing to disclose it to us?"
"Huh?" Lin Qi took a breath and seemed to realize something.
"I know you have just entered the mysterious world and are short of start-up capital." Chairman Ole said consciously, "Don't worry, kid, we won't get this knowledge in vain, we will pay you."
"No, no, no, I don't want money. It's too disrespectful to ask for money. I'm a student of archeology. I share my knowledge with teachers and the Archaeological Society. How can I accept money? This is an insult to me."
Lin Qi's expression gradually changed from confusion to surprise, his brows stretched, a strange smile appeared on his face, he rubbed his hands and said:
"I would like to call it public reading, or free trial. But if you want to continue to use and read the remaining parts, well... you may have to pay a little price."
"The remaining part?"
"Yeah, for example, accidentally digging up all the ruins."
boom.
The chair under the old chairman turned into sawdust. The eighty-five-year-old man sat on the bedside in a half-crouched position and stared at him: "Are you serious? Didn't you get in by special means? Even the specific location Do you all know? Or do the mountain people know?”
“Is this city really that important?”
Lin Qi suddenly realized that he might have really found a treasure. This ancient city was far more precious than he understood.
"It is very valuable. It can fill in several gaps in archaeology and solve many mysteries. The dispute over stone and wood just mentioned is one of them, and there are many more."
"What about outside of archeology?" Lynch thought of the sewer ghouls' obsession with digging up cities.
"Then it is only of great significance to the group of ghouls." Chairman Ole did not doubt it. Instead, he explained as if giving a lecture to the students, "The group of ghouls is now the same as the fishmen in the deep sea and the snakemen in the underground. , the rat men in the ditch are classified as mysterious aliens, rather than a living minority or special ethnic group, do you know why? "
Lin Qi shook his head curiously.
"The source is a minority or special creature, just like the elves and dwarves of the ancient continent. Although the number is small, they can be traced back to the city of origin. The mysterious aliens have no origin and can only be considered to be evil aliens that infiltrated from the dreamland. , is a monster”
Hiss, Lynch took a breath, and somewhat understood why Elder Blue's tribe didn't even care about Mordiggian's faith, but they were keen to dig out Zul'Glashar.
"Yes, as long as Zul'Glassar can be dug out, the group of ghouls may be classified as special creatures rather than mysterious aliens. Although their recipes are still open to question, this means that they can live normally. In the sun, so that's extremely important to most ghouls."
"I see."
Lin Qi smiled evilly, with only one idiom from his hometown swirling around in his mind.
Curious items to live in.
The evil god's avatar in Zul'Glasal has been destroyed, and it has become an ordinary ruins. For the caretakers like Elder Nikolai and others, it has lost its meaning. Whether the tunnel can be built or the ancient city can be dug out, the mountain People no longer care.
But only the mountain people themselves know about this change in attitude. If this information gap is operated properly, it may bring huge benefits to the mountain people, the Valente family, and themselves.
After thinking for a moment, Lin Qi thought more and more that it was feasible. He smiled at the old gentleman Ole and said, "I will definitely visit you in two days for an academic exchange. But if the time comes, I will discuss it with the Chairman." Further cooperation plans.”
No academic person would refuse this proposal. Even though the old chairman knew that Lynch had other intentions, he still agreed without hesitation, set a time and place, and immediately got up and left. After all, not only Lynch needed to prepare for the academic exchange in a few days, but they also needed to prepare, and they had to seize every minute.
After sending away the two old children, Lynch also fell into deep thought. This matter must be discussed with Miss Valente after she wakes up. In fact, the city is on the Valente family's fiefdom, and the location is in the hands of the mountain people. Even if the rare goods are sold, the two of them will mainly benefit, but as a middleman... it is only natural for them to make a little difference. , as long as the cooperation between the two parties is promoted, hehe, secret methods, abilities, rare objects, secret medicines, as long as you have money, it is not easy to want anything, hehe.
So, Grant, his allied organizations, the sewer ghouls, and this new archaeological association, I'm sorry, please act as a cash machine for a while. It seems that this resistance to the evil god is not in vain. A trip and clearing out Zul'Glashar is the real reward.
What's more, these are secondary, the path to immortality is the most urgent need.
Lin Qi looked at no one in the bedroom and took out the red moon statue that always exuded faint moonlight.
The memory of the Red Moon that carries the power of death snatched back from Mordiggian's clone.
