Hearing this, Howard was stunned for a moment and couldn't help frowning. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
"Can you tell me why?"
After thinking for a moment, Zheng Fei thought of a reason that the other party couldn't refuse, and couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth.
"Because I'm an adventurer~"
"Huh?" said Howard, not understanding.
"Because I'm an adventurer, whenever I come across something mysterious, my curiosity drives me to figure it out, otherwise I'm going to have a hard time. β
"Ha~" As an adventurous person, Howard, who had the same feelings, suddenly realized and smiled heartily: "Okay, but I have to tell you that the Tower of London is just a prison, I have lived in London since I was a child, and there are no treasures in it." β
"Trust my sense of adventure, it's definitely more than just a prison. Zheng Fei said seriously.
Seeing that he was so persistent, Howard's brows relaxed a little, and his views relaxed, but he still had some concerns, after all, it was not a trivial matter to sneak into the Tower of London with the king on his back.
"But you can report this to the king, who has always been very supportive of adventure, and will certainly agree to let you go in and explore. β
"No, I've already gone in with him once today, but he seems to know the secret and is trying to hide it. β
"Reallyβ" Howard rolled his eyes, and when he learned that the king was hiding a secret, his curiosity was aroused, and he had to find out about it.
After thinking for a while, he waved his hand and beckoned, "Come with me, my son is upstairs." β
Zheng Fei smiled knowingly, followed his footsteps, and stepped on the wooden staircase.
As soon as I went upstairs, I heard a faint noise.
"What's going on?" Howard muttered, striding toward the room.
Pushing open the door, I saw two men in their thirties in their thirties waving fists and insulting, all kinds of sarcasm, provocation and ridicule.
"Bill, you bastard, how dare you question my point of view!"
"Save it, Alan, your design was originally wrong!"
The two brothers, who were angry, didn't notice that their father, Howard, was standing in the doorway with a straight face.
"Shut up!" Howard shouted, his face grim.
The majestic voices that had been cultivated for a long time made the two brothers quiet for an instant, and they all turned their heads to look over and grinned with a little fear.
Childhood shadow, since childhood, has been beaten a lot, although Howard is in his fifties this year, but the two brothers know that even if they fight again, they can't do this old man.
In any case, Howard was also a famous general who fought in France, and his sword is not old.
"Father..."The two brothers hung their heads silently, and the anger in their hearts was suddenly dispersed.
Howard snorted angrily, blew off his beard, and sat down on the couch.
"The two brothers just have any opinions, so adults are still quarreling, it's really embarrassing for the family. β
"I'm sorry father..."
"Okay, let's not talk about that, let me introduce you, this is the adventurer I told you about before. β
"Oh, nice to meet you. The two brothers stretched out their hands at the same time, with the same enthusiasm and joy on their faces, so that Zheng Fei didn't know which one to hold first.
Probably seeing his embarrassment, the two brothers pulled their hands back again, surprisingly synchronized.
"He wants to infiltrate the Tower of London, and he needs the two of you to figure it out. Howard went straight to the point, saying in a commanding tone.
The two brothers had never dared to disobey their father's instructions, but this request was really difficult for them.
They glanced at each other, scratched the back of their heads, and then looked at Zheng Fei.
"You have to tell us what you're going to prison for, and if it's to rob the prison and save people, then please forgive us for not being able to help. β
"Adventure. Zheng Fei smiled indifferently: "It's like the pyramids of Egypt." β
"The pyramid... I remember reading an adventure book that said it was the greatest building in the world, and that it contained countless treasures. Howard made a reminiscence and muttered to himself.
"Hmm, you mean there are treasures in the Tower of London?" Hearing their father's analysis, the two brothers asked Zheng Fei.
"Maybe it's a treasure or something else, but one thing is for sure, it's a secret worth exploring. Zheng Fei nodded firmly.
The two brothers looked at each other again, their faces still embarrassed, and they took a deep breath rather solemnly.
"You have to make sure that something happens to us and that we are never involved. β
"Don't worry, even if something happens, my fleet will protect you well. β
The whole of London knew about Zheng Fei's huge fleet, and it was rumored that a huge ship could kill a fleet of the Royal Navy, so the two brothers still trusted Zheng Fei's strength very much.
But they have the mind of a designer, and they have always been accustomed to considering the degree of perfection before starting to implement, and they hesitate to say something more, when Howard interjects impatiently: "Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and help find a way!"
Howard, who is quite a gentleman in front of outsiders, seems to be a general when he teaches his son.
The sudden shouting startled the two brothers to stick out their tongues at each other.
"Well, actually, what we were arguing about was about the Tower of London. β
With that, they walked over to the large square table and motioned for Zheng Fei and Howard to come over and have a look.
Walking to the front, Zheng Fei found that there was a piece of paper on the table, on which many neatly shaped lines were drawn, and the standard data was even denser, and it was preliminarily concluded that it should be the construction drawings, the drawings of the Tower of London.
This drawing is equivalent to a top view of the Tower of London, through which you can learn more about the layout of the Tower of London complex.
Built on the banks of the River Thames, the Tower of London was often used as a fortress and was impermeable in its defenses, with artillery, trebuchets and crossbows that could easily repel any ground force that dared to charge.
It is also unrealistic to want to send a giant ship to attack it, because the Thames is only a river after all, and the width of this section of the Tower of London is no more than 200 meters, and a giant ship like the Victory can only barely sail in it, but it is still impossible to make a big move.
Taking a step back, even if the Tower of London was forcibly captured with strong ships and cannons, the fleet would not be able to leave London unharmed, and the spearmen on the shore would be able to easily throw their spears onto the deck, let alone the artillery.
"This was designed by our two brothers to rebuild the Tower of London a few years ago, and I accidentally turned it over just now and found that there was a big problem with this part of Allen's design......"
Before his brother Bill could finish his explanation, he was interrupted by his brother Allen.
"No way! I..."
"Shut up!" Howard glared at him fiercely, "Be quiet." β
Forced by intimidation, Alan had no choice but to give up. In the eyes of a top designer like him, the work is his dignity and must not be violated.
Bill, continued. Howard's tone slowed down a bit, he preferred his younger son.
Bill smugly winked at Allen, then pointed to a location in the drawing.
"Look at this, don't you think there's something missing here? According to this design, this tower will collapse in a few years. (To be continued.) )
