Chapter 36: Opening the Treasure Chest
"Hurry up, put these sandbags away!"
On the training ground in front of Hammondale Castle, at the urging of the captain of the half-elf guard, the veterans of the guard orderly built a simple fortification in the hollow of a hemp cloth bag filled with sand and dirt.
On the periphery of the training ground, the guards recruits who had not yet received their own equipment were armed with the temporarily issued big-eared monster scimitars, patrolling back and forth, and it was strictly forbidden for irrelevant idlers to approach the training ground.
The sorceress cast a qi magic, the "Magic Divine Eye", forming a magic screen in front of her eyes, monitoring all movements within a radius of several miles.
The lord and Polly and two soldiers carrying a box watched quietly from the side.
After more than ten days of research, Polly was finally 80% sure of opening the treasure chest found in Terrence Rockwin's magic laboratory.
Although he was not 100% sure, Polly decided to give it a try, and the impatient lord, who had been waiting for a while, hesitated for a while, and finally nodded in agreement.
In order to prevent accidents, the lord referred to the practice of the bomb disposal unit when dismantling the bomb that he had seen in the movie before, and asked people to prepare dozens of hemp cloth bags, make a simple bomb disposal fortification, and let Polly open the box inside.
In this way, even if it fails, the explosion will not cause harm to the people around it.
Polly was also ordered by the lord to wear several layers of special full-body leather armor, but after he still felt unsafe, the lord also contributed his chain mail and put it directly on Polly's body.
Polly, who was originally skinny, quickly turned into a bloated fat man under the packaging of several layers of leather armor and chain mail, and his whole body was round and round, even his head was densely wrapped, and only a pair of eyes were exposed.
"Even if you fail now, I believe you won't die!" After two circles around the heavily armed Polly, the lord nodded in satisfaction and patted Polly on the shoulder vigorously as a sign of encouragement.
Polly was moved and a little crying and laughing, it was safe to dress like this, but the action was really a little inconvenient, and he couldn't even bend over, how to open the box?
This problem was solved with the lord's eyes rolling: "Stupid! It's not easy, don't you have to bend over when you put the box on the table? ”
So a table was quickly moved into the fortifications on the orders of the lord.
After checking around to make sure there were no problems, the box was carried into the fortifications, and the fat version of Polly staggered in with the help of the two soldiers.
The monitoring screen of the magic of the Magic Eye was also moved to the fortifications, and the lord, the half-elf, the female magician, and the old butler nervously observed Polly's every move in the picture.
If it goes well, you'll know right away what good stuff Terrence Rockwin has left behind in Hammondal.
Polly took a deep breath, moved his hands, picked up the tools that the soldiers had helped him put on the table, and began to move his hands calmly.
His movements were so fast that no one could see what he had done in the images conjured up by the Magical Vision.
But none of that mattered, the lord's character proved to be strong again, and Polly in the picture had already raised his hands and made a triumphant gesture.
It worked!
Before the half-elf and the other three could cheer, the lord had already rushed into the fortifications with speed and skill that did not match the identity of the patient who was still recuperating from his wounds.
"What's there?"
By the time everyone had recovered from their shock, the lord's inquiring voice had already sounded in the fortifications.
The three of them hurriedly followed into the fortifications, but saw that Poli, who was done, was busy taking off the chain mail and leather armor on his body one by one, and the lord was staring at the contents of the box in a daze, with a look of disbelief, and kept muttering an inexplicable sentence in his mouth.
"How is this possible......"
Is there no thing? The three of them hurriedly took a look, but saw a few things lying quietly in the open box.
A small silver bottle, a small yellow ball with a pedestal, an amulet, a book with a black cover, a staff, a longbow made of bone, and a strangely shaped, indiscernible object.
Although these things are not very eye-catching on the outside, even Terrence Rockwin's careful collection must be a great thing.
As a master-level fire magician, Miss Ash Temple's eyes were naturally attracted by the black cover book in the box, because there was no word on the cover of this book, such a book is usually a magician's personal practice notes, which record a magician's cultivation process, experience, and experience, which is a rare treasure.
Obtaining such a notebook usually means that you have received another magician's unknown spiritual experience, which is of great help to your own practice.
If you are lucky, it is very likely that you will find a way to break through your own bottleneck, so as to further your own strength.
Another thing that caught Miss Ash's Tempe's eye was the staff, which, with her superb elemental sensitivity, could clearly sense bursts of fire elemental fluctuations coming from above.
It's a staff made for fire magicians! Or the staff of Terrence Rockwin's collection! Due to his poor background, he had never had the money to build a staff for himself, and his eyes were red at that time.
The half-elf's eyes were drawn to the longbow made of bone.
There is only one longbow made of bone on the continent of Erathia, and that is the famous griffon's bow.
The bow is made of griffin bones that are not as strong as gold and iron and have excellent elasticity and toughness, because the bones used are only one piece of each griffin, so it takes four adult griffin carcasses to make a griffin bow, and the griffin itself is a fierce, powerful and flying creature, which is extremely difficult to hunt, so it is extremely rare in other countries except for the Erathia Human Empire because of the domesticated griffin can be mass-produced.
However, even in the Erathian Human Empire, such a griffin bow is very rare, and only the generals in the army and the super archers who have accumulated a certain level of combat exploits can equip it, and it cannot be used in the army in a structured manner.
Due to the characteristics of the griffon's bones, this longbow far exceeds the range and reliability of other materials, and even the elven longbow, which is known for its stability, is slightly inferior.
Although such a bow is not very in line with the aesthetics of the half-elves, this bow can be collected by Terrence Rockwin, which shows that there must be something extraordinary, not comparable to the bow of an ordinary griffin.
The old housekeeper didn't know martial arts and magic, and he couldn't help but be disappointed when he saw that there were no high-end items such as gold coins or jewelry in the box, but when he saw everyone staring at the things in the box with bright eyes, he knew that these seemingly inconspicuous things must be worth a lot of money. ”
"Yes, yes, yes! Hurry up and move your stuff to the cellar! As soon as the old butler reminded him, the lord came to his senses.
(The second update is coming!) Ask for favorites and tickets! )
