Chapter 374: A Historic Gym
"Are those old gyms with a bit of history all conservative and resistant to the Alliance's new gym bill?"
Lin Zhou's question was more direct, Fujiwara Sakurako took a sip of ice cream, thought about it, and said:
"Not really, but most of them."
Moon Eevee, who was beside her, walked over lightly, looking up and staring at the ice cream, as if she wanted to eat it.
Fujiwara Sakurako dipped her finger a little and fed it to its mouth, watching Moon Eevee's tongue lick a little ice cream off her fingertips before continuing:
"Relax, I know that your budding gym is being suppressed by conservatives, but the situation is not bad, judging from the gathering of the hall owners association this time, there are not many important people who came, and it probably accounts for half of the active gyms of the hall owners council.
In the hall owner association, there are several other dragon gyms that have a relatively heavy voice and are more active, such as the Dragon Gym, the Masha Duo Gym, and the Cyber Dao Pavilion...... None of them showed up this time.
Since they didn't appear here, it probably means that they are not interested in the theme of this assembly, and they don't care whether the Sprout Gym survives or not.
That's good news, your enemies aren't the entire Pavilion's Council, at least. ”
Lin Zhou was a lot relieved when he heard Fujiwara Sakurako's analysis, and it seemed that the situation was at least much more optimistic than he thought at the beginning.
"Of course, the number of dojos who came this time is small, but the few people who should be influential can still bring you a lot of trouble, look at the ...... over there."
Fujiwara Sakurako tilted her head, Lin Zhou looked in the direction she was pointing, and the three of them were standing there chatting with goblets by the window.
An old man with white hair, a stocky lady dressed in pink, and a money-grubbing man in a Dalmatika, with a gold coin in his hand, and money in his mouth.
These three people were the three hall owners that Lin Zhou found difficult to deal with when he received them just now.
"That white-haired old man is the current old hall owner of the Wizard Gym, the white wolf.
The history of the Wizard's Gym can be traced back to the Middle Ages, long before the Elven Alliance was founded.
In those days, people's thoughts and wisdom were ignorant and uncivilized, and religion prevailed.
At that time, although there were very few labyrinth doors, there were already traces of elves in our world.
However, in the Middle Ages, the elves were considered to be demons from hell because of their terrible abilities, and they were the messengers of witches.
You know, the people of that period, except for their own kind and the master, they didn't have anything to be afraid of, and of course, the wild elves of that period did often hurt people.
So later on, there were people who specialized in hunting and defending against wild elves, and they were called: witchers.
Because the Demon Hunter has the most contact with the elves, he has become the first person to learn to harness the power of the elves, and this group of Demon Hunter organizations is the predecessor of the Wizard Gym.
Later, as the elves were domesticated and gradually integrated into human society, the work of demon hunters gradually shifted from our world to the labyrinth.
After the establishment of the Elven Alliance, the Witcher Organization joined the Elven Alliance as the "Wizard Gym".
The domestication and cultivation of the wizard's gym uses elven techniques, which have been used from generation to generation from the Middle Ages to the present, improved, tried, and improved.
This is a truly qualified ancient dojo. ”
Fujiwara Sakurako was there talking about the history of the Wizard Gym, and Lin Zhou listened to it with a painful face.
It was hard for him to imagine how these centuries-old histories had been handed down, but he knew a truth.
That is, the more years go by, the harder it is to deal with.
Although, this is just a wizard gym, and it has already given Lin Zhou a headache, Fujiwara Sakurako continued to speak.
"The old witch dressed in pink, she's the owner of the Pink Gym, Lady Pink, Umbridge.
She has a very deep background in the education department, and the people in the family have been the elders of the education department for three generations, and it can be said that half of the education department is under her influence.
However, Umbridge is extremely dogmatic and acts ...... I can only use the word "disgusting" to describe it, because I have learned it deeply.
When I was in elementary school, she served as an education supervisor in our school for half a year, which was a supervisory position of the education department for the school, and that short half a year was a disaster for the whole school.
Every day there are countless new school rules, every day you can hear the bulletin criticism on the big radio, and the school is like a concentration camp by the old witch...... Back then, we all called her Pink Toad Lady behind our backs......"
When Sakurako Fujiwara talked about the pink lady Umbridge, she looked disgusted and nauseated, obviously extremely disgusted with this person, so much so that she didn't want to talk about it.
"Anyway, you know, Ms. Pink Toad, is not an easy character to deal with, or if you get into a fight with her, it will be purely disgusting to yourself."
Fujiwara Sakurako's words reminded Lin Zhou of the afternoon just now, when the pink lady came up, she criticized and scored the budding gym for a while, not qualified here, not qualified there.
He probably knew who it was......
"Then, the old man in his coat, who looked like a Jingluo element, was the owner of the Gold Coin Gym, Grande.
He's a money-grub and an iron rooster, but he's also vain.
However, he should be regarded as the best communication among several people, this person is greedy for money to the point of pathology, as long as he has money, there is nothing that cannot be negotiated. ”
"What is the origin of this gold coin gym?"
"The Gold Coin Gym is a bit special, it was established by Grande, and it does not have the long history of the Wizard Gym, nor does it have the strong background of the Pink Dojo's educational resources.
However, it has abundant financial conditions and some strange cultivation methods, and has exhibited rare ancient relics.
In the rumors circulating in the League about Grande, it is said that he was a Catholic whose ancestors had participated in the Crusades and left behind countless riches and treasures.
One day, the lucky man of Grande, discovered the wealth left by his ancestors, and used this wealth and treasure to establish the Gold Coin Gym.
Among the treasures, there are ancient methods of domesticating elves during the Byzantine period, as well as ancient relics from that period.
If you look for some news reports, or all kinds of information, you may only find this.
A few decades ago, people thought that Grande was a lucky man who inherited the wealth of his ancestors, and watched him build the Gold Coin Gym with his wealth until today.
However, few people know that the truth of the matter is not so, and everything is made up by him. ”
Sakurako Fujiwara lowered her voice when she said this.
"Not many people know this secret, and unfortunately, I am one of those who know it, because my grandfather, who has passed away, was involved in it.
Fifty years ago, a research ship on the island of Ireland deviated from its original course during a storm at sea and ran aground in uncharted waters.
Only three people survived on the research ship, and they were unlucky enough to be washed up on an unknown uninhabited island.
There were no people, no rescue, and after several people were shipwrecked, their survival conditions were worrying.
However, just when the three of them felt extremely unlucky, they found a treasure trove of buried treasures on that island.
The objects in the treasure house are very old, obviously not from that era, and have been abandoned for an unknown amount of time.
By deciphering some of the mural texts left behind, they finally deciphered that it was supposed to be the treasure left by Ivar the Boneless during the Viking invasion of England, which was a treasure trove for Viking pirates.
And then the development, I think you should guess.
The three people who were killed, a huge treasure, how to think about it, how could it not be the result of an equal division, so, they turned against each other, and one person picked up a knife in the middle of the night.
Eventually, one person died.
A man jumped into the sea and escaped from the island, holding a wooden plank and drifting *** when he was exhausted and unconscious and was about to die, he was rescued by a merchant ship.
Later, he tried to look for the island, but he couldn't find it, and this person was my grandfather.
In the end, the person who was left alone swallowed the treasure, went incognito, changed his face, and lived for fifty years.
I was also interested in the story my grandfather told me, and after a long time of searching, I found out that that person was now Grande.
He did have a treasure, but it wasn't from his Crusader ancestors, as he had secretly spread to the outside world.
Rather, he was shipwrecked fifty years ago and washed up on an uninhabited island, where he found the treasure of the Vikings. ”
"A treasure ...... that can support a gym"
Lin Zhou raised his eyebrows, but he thought it was quite interesting.
Seeing Lin Zhou's interested expression, Fujiwara Sakurako rolled her eyes and whispered in his ear:
"According to the story my grandfather told me, there is not only money in it, but also the ancient laws of domestication and mysterious ancient relics in the Gold Coin Gym.
That treasure place had something about the mysterious power of the ancient elves, and besides, there were some things that he couldn't have taken away.
I've been tracking that place for years, and I've been a little interested in visiting it with me. ”
Fujiwara Sakurako knew so well that it seemed that she had been thinking about the treasure behind the Gold Coin Gym for a long time, and now she wanted to pull Lin Zhou onto the thief ship by the way.
How could Lin Zhou fall into her trap, and shook his head again and again.
"I'd better forget it, you can play by yourself."
