Chapter 288: The Underground Treasury of the Bank Group
The middle reaches of the "Leiden River", the Golden Lion City.
Bang!!!
The 15-metre-high granite wall was broken by the waves, and the buildings close to the wall were not spared, and the inhabitants who had not yet fled were turned into dust in the tide!
As a matter of fact.
Even without the help of the aftermath of the tsunami, any of the 47 sea monsters that launched the joint offensive would be far more than 15 meters tall as long as they raised their heads.
The walls were designed only to protect against human attacks, and it was inevitable that they would be easily breached.
On the top of the city.
Except for the directors who have the protection of the transcendents and the kingdom mobile force that is the transcendents themselves, they are not stupid enough to argue with the pirate king when they see that the situation is not good, and they jump over the wall to escape.
Not one of the thousands of elite private soldiers stationed in the line was wiped out under the power of "nature".
Even the dozens of expensive bronze cannons on the city's head were buried under the water without firing a single shot.
The "booming" surge continued to rush forward, easily turning this place into a country.
However, it carried a strong water current for nearly 200 kilometers, and it was almost the end of it.
The damage to the buildings in the city was not particularly severe, except for about a fifth of the city near the southern gate, and the further north it was, the less damaged.
Following the sea monsters, the pirate ship slowly approached.
As a pirate ship built with reference to the military's second-class ship.
The "Eternal Icon" is 63 meters long, has a three-story gun deck, 90 guns, a capacity of 750 people, a displacement of about 2,000 tons, and a draft of 76 meters.
However, at this time, there is no need for the conventional combat power of the pirate ship.
Roar!
Moo!
Hiss!
In addition to the "sea king shell", which is responsible for the necessary transportation to start the tsunami, and the two small species "sea tide shell", the remaining 24 large species and 20 small species have all landed.
They follow a wide avenue in the middle of the city to the headquarters of the "Dutch Banker" in the center of the city.
It is worth mentioning that all the sea monsters that landed in the "Golden Lion City" at this time were amphibious, not necessarily amphibians, and could not only exert their might in the sea, but also on land.
To the tiny human beings, they are even more terrifying than the prehistoric beasts, difficult to face, and even more irresistible!
Boom! Boom!
Among them, there are two majestic giant turtles, which look like snapping turtles covered with edges and corners. The length of the turtle shell alone is more than 60 meters, and the thirteen armor peaks like iron on their backs rise high, shaking the mountains as they walk, as if the mountains are slowly moving forward.
The most special thing is that two huge heads poke out from under their shells, and the tail part is formed into nine forks, shaking their heads and tails unscrupulously!
Large species of earthquake two-headed turtle
Immediately behind them are four "snake-like" creatures with heads covered in heavy scales and red and yellow torsos, but they differ significantly from snakes in subtle ways.
Although they look like snakes, they are actually lizards with completely vestigial limbs, a type of snake lizard. Every time he opened his mouth, a cluster of purple tentacles slowly wriggled in his mouth, as if he was holding a large octopus that had not swallowed it.
Large species of soil-bellied snake lizard
Judging from the position, you know that the six-headed sea monster in the middle of the team, under the heavy protection of other sea monsters, is Huggins' real killer feature!
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Wading through the stagnant water that did not reach his calves, Huggins took half of his most combat-powerful subordinates on the ship, Shi Shiran into the huge gap in the city wall.
Even if he walks in stagnant water, that posture is like a lion looking at the whole grassland, like an eagle looking at the sky, like a king patrolling his territory on a royal chariot.
All living beings will surrender at His feet!
Ignore the high-level executives of the banking syndicate who fled in a hurry.
Huggins' goal is very clear, which is the large vault located under the headquarters of the banking group, and now the only thing that can stop him is absolute power, and obviously those adults do not have such a thing
The "Golden Lion City" was not originally called the "Golden Lion City", but a very inconspicuous town along the Leiden River.
It was only because the Dutch Bank Group chose this place 120 years ago for business development that the Golden Lion City was able to gradually develop into its current size.
There were many factors that went into choosing the site back then, but thanks to his "good" relationships with many shareholders, Huggins knew all about it.
In addition to easy transportation, abundant water and fertile land to feed an adequate population.
A large part of the reason for the location of the Golden Lion City is to build the "underground vault", which is known as the number one hardware in the mainland!
The treasure trove was built by hollowing out a whole layer of granite under the "Golden Lion City" with a huge amount of effort, and it was divided into three layers.
Even the most superficial layer is 15 meters underground, and the deepest layer reaches a depth of 40 meters.
There is only one entrance to the vault, and it is guarded by a 7-meter-diameter 95-ton steel cylinder and a 140-ton steel frame, which cannot be damaged even by a huge alchemy bomb that can raze the headquarters building.
Moreover, the steel door is operated by multiple mechanisms, and the five directors with the authority to operate it must turn several large discs at the same time before the mechanism at the entrance can be activated.
After passing through the gate, you have to go through a long tunnel. There are several identical forks every 5 meters away from the tunnel, and it is impossible to reach the vault area by taking any of them wrong.
Moreover, the wealthy bank group also invited alchemists to enchant the walls of the entire treasury, so that a whole layer of granite, which already weighed tens of thousands of tons, could be as strong as steel of the same thickness.
It's not an exaggeration to call it "impregnable"!
They even set up multiple witchcraft and physical traps in a frenzy, and the vault is even more murderous than it is impregnable.
Huggins had no doubt that if they could find the legendary maze guardian, Milotaurus, they wouldn't hesitate to put that monster in the Great Vault!
However, the strength of the guards is actually no worse than that terrifying monster.
There is at least one third-order grand knight and two second-order official wizards sitting inside the vault at all times, ensuring the safety of gold, custody, collateral and other treasures inside the vault to the greatest extent.
This is also the main reason why Huggins worked hard, even spared no expense to transfer huge benefits to establish a good relationship with many directors, and after learning about the defense capability of the underground treasury, he directly gave up the trick!
He clearly realized that unless the "Dutch Banking Group" was uprooted, even if he was at the peak of the third order, it would never be possible for him to enter the third layer safely and take that treasure.
It is even possible to be left underground forever if you are not careful.
The power of the third-order peak is far from enough to allow him to run rampant on the continent and gain true "freedom"!
Of course, he didn't think about holding important people hostage and exchanging the lives of big people for that treasure.
It's just that the shareholders of the "Dutch banking group" are actually the same giants on the mainland, and even the chairman is only one of the representatives of the big forces, and there is no absolute weakness.
Moreover, the Dutch banking syndicate has been established for nearly 300 years, and it has never lost its custody, or even if it is lost, it will be "taken" back at any cost.
The credibility that has been built over hundreds of years and countless lives is what makes it a banking giant.
The weight of a human life is too insignificant compared to the credibility of a hundred years of trees and the interests of a huge interest group!
Therefore, even if he uses the method of taking hostages, he will not want to exchange even a golden lion.
Half of Huggins' tactical choices today can be said to have been forced out by this impeccable vault!
Boom! Boom!
The "Sea Monster Demolition Team" did not need Huggins' command to start doing it on their own, because they were restless by the instinct given by the goddess, and they sensed the supernatural that other mortals below the demigod level were not qualified to perceive at all.
The "heart of the ocean" of the Black Sea is actually the condensation of the authority of the Black Sea, and there are two theories about its origin.
One theory is that the Black Sea is naturally generated, and whoever can obtain it can ascend to the supreme throne of the Black Sea, and the other is that it was conceived by the Sea Witch herself after she ascended to the gods, and was later stripped from her body when she was sealed.
But whatever its origin, it does not change the fact that it is a treasure to God. Without the person of the fifth-order demigod, it would be impossible to perceive its true form!
Only the dependents of the two goddesses, the "Mother of the Sea Monsters" and the "Sea Witch" Hipponor, who have some authority over the Black Sea, such as ordinary sea monsters and their fellow paths such as Theinkut, the son of the god of the sea, can break this restriction through the authority of the transcendent source.
The demolition of the big vault has already begun.
At the same time, a hidden corner of the Golden Lion City.
A group of uniformly dressed members who clearly belonged to the same faction, instead of taking refuge like the other citizens, gathered together as if planning something.
If it is a senior executive of the banking group, it can be recognized at a glance.
The leader is none other than the new head of the Mafia family, "Maniac" Danfu Mafiya, who was specially asked by Joel, the chairman of the banking group, to stay closed.
"My brothers, lift the restrictions on those who have come from afar, and the sea will have a new owner!
And in our hands, the Mafia family will also usher in unprecedented glory!"
"Yes, Danford is in charge!"
Flutter Ridge! Flutter Ridge! Flutter Ridge!
Dozens of terns were immediately released, in groups of two, into every city along the Leiden River.
Then, from the hidden corners that were not affected by the tsunami, out of the hidden corners of the city, a group of elite pirates, although all dressed in the clothes of ordinary workers, could not hide their fierce spirit.
All of these places are the property of the Mafia family, the largest local gang with power throughout the "Leiden Valley".
There is no doubt that the inner ghost really exists, and it is the Mafia family, who are regarded as "blunt knives" by the "Dutch banking group".
Even looking at the current appearance, he is not just a ghost, it is very likely that he is the most upline of all the elite pirates who have entered the "Leiden Valley" in advance.
"Now, before we greet Lord Huggins, let's get the little mouse out."
Dressed in a fine shirt, waistcoat, trousers, leather shoes, and carrying a silver cane, he looks like a gentleman of the navy who has been sneaky since he came to the Golden Lion City?"
