Chapter 299: The first step to get started
Knowing that Barry is also extraordinary, Jack later talks about his archaeological experience with a lot more than what he told in class.
"Some ancient tombs, or places where treasures are buried, have the backhands of their owners at the time, most of them are evil spirits, beasts, or gargoyles and other artificial guards..."
"So archaeology is also a very dangerous profession, especially when you go to explore the unknown, I have encountered a lot of dangers in it, if it weren't for luck, I might not be able to come back..."
"For example, the archaeology of the Tudor dynasty that I talked about in class is actually to explore the tomb of a great nobleman, which has a lot of dark magic traps, and figurines made from living people, and they will kill all the invaders..."
When Jack said this, there was a trace of fear in his eyes, it seemed that the situation was really more dangerous, he almost received the bento and died in the mausoleum.
"Isn't this a tomb robbery?"
Although Barry felt that the word tomb robbery was a better description of Jack's behavior than archaeology, when he said it, Jack was not angry, but said with a smile on his face.
"It's not wrong for you to say this, after all, most of our industry deals with tombs, after all, only in the tombs can there be more historical truths, and we will occasionally dig up the original owners and pack them away."
Although Barry doesn't care about digging other people's graves, after all, there are really a lot of treasures in the tombs, and he can make a fortune with a single stroke, like the invincible Ye Heizi, he didn't also start by digging graves.
What else is Raiders of the Lost Ark, mummies, aren't they all going to dig graves under a different name, and the protagonist in it finally has both wealth and wealth, and has become a winner in life.
If the monk touches it, can't I touch it?
However, although Barry can do it, it is not a glorious thing after all, but there is no shame on Jack's face.
Looking at Barry's slightly confused eyes, Jack patted him on the shoulder: "I have a professional archaeological certificate, and the excavated artifacts will also be handed over to the museum, and the historical truth will also be handed over to specialized researchers to verify their research." ”
"The most important thing is that those tomb owners are not good things, you must know that the tombs of the Dark Age, the Obscurantist Era, only those who are in power will have them, and there was no civilization at that time."
"I have dug a lot of graves, and it can be said that I also have a little experience of those times, the living are buried, evil spirits are created, and their majestic hegemony is recorded, but it is all the accumulation of human lives..."
"Alas!"
It could be that Jack had seen too many dark things in the mausoleum, or maybe he didn't want Barry to know too much, so he could only let out a helpless sigh in the end.
After being silent for a while, Jack said again: "You don't have any psychological pressure on archaeology, the owners of those mausoleums, one counts as one, and they all have the crime of being dug up..."
Barry also knows why Jack said this, and through these days of study, he has also gained a certain amount of research on history, and he also knows the cruel truth in history.
In this world, only those who are in power in the family iteration will build mausoleums for themselves, and the royal family is inhumane, and those mausoleums represent this boundless blood.
Although this world has extraordinary power, this does not mean that it can be seen for a long time, it is a great power that only gods have, and most transcendent people live a little more than ordinary people.
Only the legend can initially control the fate, otherwise death will always follow behind everyone.
The body will decay, the soul will wither, and no magical object can truly immortalize people, and when they are unable to return to heaven, those in power will think about their own aftermath.
When they were alive in the world, they wanted to be worshiped by thousands of people, and countless people served, but after they died, they were not stable, thinking that if they continued their rights, they would turn the mausoleum into a kingdom of evil spirits.
Then what will they do, of course, be martyred, and before they die, bury their wives, their subordinates, and their subjects together in the eternal silence of the mausoleum.
Of course, no matter what era, there will be self-sacrificing and glorious heroes, but those heroes will not build a big mausoleum for themselves, so you don't have to worry about digging by mistake.
Maybe seeing that Barry was a little low, Jack thought that his thoughts couldn't be changed: "The topic just now is a bit dull, let's talk about something interesting, do you know that in addition to archaeology, sometimes I am a part-time adventurer..."
"Exploration is much more interesting than archaeology, the treasures of legendary pirates, mysterious lost civilizations, unknown secret places... will bring you different feelings. ”
"When you sail in the endless sea, you will see all kinds of creatures, I even saw a super sea monster, it was really a big thing, it was really unimaginable..."
"It's like a mountain range, and if it weren't for the fact that he's no longer in need of food, I'm afraid the sea won't be able to feed it, and if someone doesn't scare it away, our voyage will be doomed."
"Another time I got lost in a forest, and I met a tribe of monsters similar to centaurs, but those monsters are all women, and whenever they reproduce, they will find creatures of other races to borrow seeds..."
"Fortunately, I went at the wrong time, and they are not evil, otherwise they would not have been able to get out of there at all, and their whole bodies would have been drained..."
Jack seemed to enjoy the conversation, and before Barry could start talking, he would go on and on, and Barry was so excited that he wanted to go on an adventure himself.
But Barry can't always listen to his stories, and he hasn't forgotten his most important thing, which is to ask about the whereabouts of a more reliable treasure.
"Teacher Jack, I don't know if you have some reliable treasures in your years of exploration, can you tell me a goal so that I can also have an adventure."
"It's about my career advancement, so it's very important to me, and if I need a reward, I can also exchange it for the corresponding strange things, please."
If the object of Barry's questioning is not Jack, but another transcendent, he will definitely receive the other party's white eyes, and by the way, the other party will secretly scold him in his heart.
"What a fool, if I can find out the exact whereabouts of the treasure, then I can just find it myself, and want me to tell you, I think you are trying to eat shit."
But Jack is different, he has a big backer, and he has a father called "Guardian of the World" behind him, so the news that ordinary transcendents are secrets is not important to him.
Jack looked at Barry's solemn appearance, and touched the back of his head with his right hand: "If this matter is concerned, I have to think about it first..."
