Chapter 30: The Spire
The Holy See's answer was simple.
There is no mention of the division of interests at all, nor does it say any unrelated nonsense about ownership.
The Pope has only one request.
The method can be told to Xing Jie, but for this excavation, Natasha must follow the whole process, and Xing Jie must ensure her personal safety.
In other words, her role is a special video recorder for the Holy See!
But why should this be?
If you want a video, Xing Jie can completely decide to give the Pope an uncut version, as for letting Natasha, who is missing an arm, perform such a dangerous mission?
"Jay, are you underestimating me?"
"Of course not, you know why, this ruin is very strange overall, and it's hard to say what kind of danger there will be. If there is a super master of the level similar to the Terminator, it will be difficult for me to protect myself, how can I guarantee your safety?"
"You don't need to say this, I'm mentally prepared. If there really is a combat creature of that level at that time. I'll automatically abandon the mission, and you can run for your life first. ”
Xing Jie was puzzled, having such an employee in this world can be said to be a blessing for every boss.
Hard work, not afraid of death.
In other words, what kind of benefits did the old man of the Pope promise Natasha?
Money?
Not quite like that.
As a person at the level of a white-clothed priest, he has the power to directly use 10 million US dollars without the approval of the Holy See.
So, money is not very tempting for Natasha.
Posts?
She is now independently leading the Battle Nun, and in terms of rank, she is the same as the head of the two major combat units of ascetic and paladin, and they are both at this level.
It can be said that there is no liter to rise.
Further up is the Arbitral Tribunal, or simply the Pope's throne.
Can a woman be a pope?
Obviously impossible.
Leaving aside the truth or falsity of Joan, who was elected Pope John in 855 AD, the mere fact that Natasha had a broken arm and a mutilated limb would leave her without any hope.
Don't talk about godliness or the protection of the gods, which even the Pope himself does not believe.
Unless?
Xing Jie glanced at the sleeves of the shirt fluttering in the wind, thoughtfully.
Natasha is a beauty, of course, not a beauty like Aunt Isabel, nor a lady like little Amy.
Because of her years of running in the wild and being in the line of fire, she looks very resolute.
How so?
Similar to Brita's style, an intellectual beauty who highlights her own personality.
To put it simply, it's like a woman like Kate Beckinsale.
The first time I saw her, she was Alyssa's assistant, and at that time she was in an American hip-hop style. Then it was in Finland, but it was a big change and a lot more beautiful.
Why would such a woman come to perform such a task?
In terms of skill, there are many people in the Holy See who are better than her.
There are so many super masters in the paladin or ascetic brigade that are much stronger than her.
But to be faithful?
Xing Jie pondered for a long time, and it can be said that there is no one like Natasha who is so determined to serve the Pope.
There is another point that makes Xing Jie feel a little strange.
The Pope's attitude towards Natasha can be described as quite cold.
Natasha is the Pope's illegitimate son, right?
But the age of the Pope?
It's really old and strong, a model for my generation.
Xing Jie's sly smirk made Natasha feel very uncomfortable, but Xing Jie was a bastard who didn't play according to the rules. If you ask him now, he'll probably say something disgusting bastard to you.
So out of sight is pure, it became Natasha's choice!
The thing Natasha brought was a rather large box, but after opening it, Xing Jie was very confused.
This thing is familiar to many of the people present.
Well, it's very similar to the spire tower in the Dingrusi swamp on the plateau of Guinea.
At the beginning, Xing Jie also used the spire tower to show what the legendary Golden Mountain was, but in just a short period of time, he was slapped in the face by the Holy See.
Except that this one is a little smaller and looks a little older.
For the rest, it doesn't make much difference.
It is worthy of the Holy See, and this background is too deep.
Xing Jie is just looking for relics and looking at people, and he has already learned to put it into practice!
"How to use it?" Xing Jie asked.
"It's simple, don't you have that kind of diamond? Then take a spin around the Khunjerapu Canyon and when you get it right, the thing will kick in naturally. Natasha shrugged her shoulders and said coldly.
"So what is the right place?"
"Anything within plus or minus one square meter is called the right position!"
Xing Jie and his party were a little stupid.
Plus or minus a square meter?
Do you know how big Khunjerapu Canyon is? Try it little by little? Why is it going to wait?
"That's how we found the Garden of Asaph anyway, believe it or not!" Natasha smiled and walked in the direction of her camp.
was choked half to death, but he was also very helpless, and Xing Jie had no temper at all for this kind of diehard. After all, Natasha was still an ally until now.
People also told this method, this is human affection, Xing Jie has to carry it no matter how unhappy he is!
"Uncle, you and Lao Han should go to Guinea. Let's see if we can rent the spire for some money, money is not an issue. ”
Guinean officials are very vocal and express their full support for archaeology, which can uncover the truth of history. As for the rental of cultural relics? Of course, no problem.
Those black brothers waved their pens.
Friendly price, the rent for a month is one million, and the unit is a U.S. knife!
Xing Jie is very satisfied, it seems that it is still the same old saying, the problems that can be solved with money are not all problems!
The rent is nothing, and each of the high-ranking bigwigs in Guinea only receives a small amount of thanks, which is not much, just like the rent of the spire.
Anyway, the money was all obtained from the Guardians, so it didn't hurt to spend it.
……
Another two weeks passed.
In the past ten days, Xing Jie and the others basically measured the entire Khunjerapu Canyon with their feet. Although driving a snowmobile, a spire tower behind it looks a little weird, a bit like a cult and some rituals.
Those experts in the country have delineated a few places.
Although it is not clear how illusions work, these points are the most visible refraction of all light.
said it was very high-end, but Xing Jie said that he couldn't understand it at all.
said it so professionally, even the top students here felt that it was in the clouds. This is not sound diffraction, how can the refractive point of light be measured in a bare place?
But the effect is still there.
When it came to the last location, the Spire finally reacted.
The shape of the entire G6 peak began to change, except for the snow at the top, all the ruins disappeared, and the main body was no different from the other peaks.
However, judging from the video taken by the drone, everyone felt a chill in their hearts, and a few grumpy people like the five people had already begun to greet the maternal relatives who designed this mechanism.
If there is anything vicious about this G6 peak?
It's actually quite simple.
All the ruins, the passages, the passages, the twisting tables, are all illusory.
When Xing Jie and the others flew to the top of the mountain, they had already entered the illusion world.
If you take the wrong step, the end is self-evident.
The abyss.
