Chapter 028: Report and Treasure Clues
Upon arrival at the star of Mertura, according to the plan they will split up. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Su Mu then went to the manor of the Baron of Asturias alone, and the attendant who learned of his intention respectfully brought him to the Baron who was swimming.
Asturias, who was shirtless, could clearly see the fat on his waist and legs due to his age and the irregular life caused by his busyness, accompanied by the movement of his limbs.
On the contrary, the daughters of Asturias, it is said that the baroness was a famous beauty when she was young, and the daughters of all sizes from the royal sister to the girl and then to Lori who inherited her mother's excellent genes are all playing in bikini in the water, which is much more eye-catching in comparison.
Su Mu's arrival caused a burst of exclamations from the baron's daughters, and it would be a shame to let strangers come to the private pool, so the result was that Yingying Yanyan dispersed in a hurry, and the baron was left alone on the chaise longue to talk to him.
Asturias didn't get angry or blame, mainly because Su Mu had completed the commission, and he had also achieved a small extra result, which made him have a good face in the previous party, and he was about to be treated like one of those veteran pioneers.
Senior pioneers have either sailed in the void for more than ten years, are well-informed and experienced, or have made sensational discoveries or exploits across the country, or have a net worth of tens of billions, and are basically on an equal footing with ordinary nobles like themselves.
"Sue, you're back!" Inquiries from Asturias Caring.
Su Mu told a series of work he had done in the San Calan Frontier, the current development status of the Frontier, plus what he had seen and heard in the star system, and the adventures of other pioneers, anyway, there was a lot of time, and Asturias was very interested in listening, so he simply reported it all.
After listening to Su Mu's report, Asturias showed an envious expression, although he had read the text version earlier, how could the person concerned personally report to him in detail and truth.
"Sue, you've worked hard." Asturian comfort.
Su Mu said that he was not working hard at all, he was for the future of the kingdom, anyway, he would not blush when he opened his eyes and said nonsense.
Asturias was also very helpful when he heard it, and couldn't help but praise him for being a promising young man, if it weren't for his age, he would have wanted to go to the Saint-Calan pioneer to see it himself!
The attendants around him breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately the Baron had no impulsive intention to participate in the pioneering activities, otherwise they would have to go to that poor place and count the stars all day long.
Asturias was in a very happy mood, and the follow-up things went smoothly, so he saw that the baron first logged in to the website to carry out the process of confirming the commission, and then Su Mu received a reminder that the commission was officially completed and the transfer of 500 million was remunerated by the commission.
Then, according to the agreement, Asturias would make Su Mu a nobleman, and personally presided over a rather traditional knighthood ceremony for him, first draped on the outside of a discolored velvet robe about thousands of years old, and then he was to half-kneel on the ground, listen to the baron recite a message of remembrance of the long history of the kingdom of Faron, admonishing the nobles about their rights and duties, and then the baron gently held a rusty long sword that was also thousands of years old in his hand and pointed it at himself, and the baron blessed him to complete the oath.
I have to say that the ceremony is quite formal and elegant, at least he remembers that there is no similar experience in the game, which impresses Su Mu.
And he noticed that during the knight canonization, the eldest and youngest daughters of Asturias peeked from the sidelines, and compared to the group of squires with straight faces, the baron's daughters laughed completely from beginning to end, and really didn't know what was funny.
The ritual of egg pain is completed, and Su Mu theoretically becomes a nobleman of the Faron Kingdom, with a small report at most. Although the lowest, no fiefdom, the San Calan Pioneer Land nominally belongs to the king, but it is not his own, and it cannot be hereditary, but this is the future after all, as long as he ensures that all the properties in the San Calan Pioneer Land are his own, then he has the right to speak, and he also enjoys additional privileges as a nobleman, and it is a hat that is very convenient to fool people, then it is enough.
Asturias began to inquire about Sumu's future plans.
"In the future, I expect that it will take a few years of patient development on the Pioneer Ground before it really plays a role, and it still needs to be taken care of by the Baron."
"That's nature, I value this pioneering land, how can it be so easy to fall behind?"
"Personally, I won't stay in the pioneer for long, I will continue my career as a pioneer, and considering that my reputation is not enough, I hope to find a new discovery."
"You're going to explore and discover?" Asturias admired, worthy of being a promising young man with great ambitions, he thought about it, and suddenly remembered that he had a discovery commission that had been hanging for more than 20 years and had not been completed, should he let Su Mu deal with it?
Asturias was quick to inform Sumu of his thoughts.
Su Mu was intrigued, and if Asturias offered to provide clues to the discovery, he would save him a lot of time searching for potential discoveries, or recalling discoveries.
After listening to this, Su Mu asked in a low voice, "What Lord Baron said is... The treasure left behind by the famous star thief king of the Dark Ages, the Night King? ”
He knew that this was a discovery of the same magnitude as the Holy Crystal Church, and he didn't remember the details, but he had experience, so he could pass a discovery of this difficulty without even needing a strategy.
"Unexpectedly, Lord Baron knew the clue of this treasure, and it is rumored that when the Chinese New Year's Eve King's final voyage made his flagship full of wealth and treasures plundered over the years, he secretly ran to an unknown planet, intending to build a shelter."
"That's right... Because my ancestors had been on the Night King's ship, and later accidentally noticed that the captain's real intention in building the shelter was not to provide protection, but to lock everyone up and bury them together as a final curtain call, and because they did not want to be funeral objects, my ancestors managed to snatch a spaceship and escape. ”
"Now that you know that some of the crew may have defected and leaked secrets, how can you make sure that the Night King hasn't changed his position later?"
"At that time, more than half of the construction progress of the shelter was completed, both the building itself and the facilities inside were quite perfect, and if you changed planets, you would undoubtedly have to pay a staggering price; In addition, the ancestor's spaceship was chased and killed in the process of escaping, and the spaceship was hit head-on by the star thieves and turned into pieces, which made the Night King think that the ancestor was dead, but he relaxed his vigilance, but he did not expect the ancestor to hide in the rescue pod and sleep for about 300 years, drifting in the universe and finally escaping. ”
"So that's what happened, so it makes sense."
"But Sue, you don't have to report too many expectations, in the past so long, the development of productive forces, the priceless treasure of the year, to today may be worth up to 10 billion, of course, I make sure that the meaning of the treasure is not measured by money alone, after many years, the name of the Night King is still a household name, and is praised as the hero of the star thieves, the guardian saint, once you find the treasure, you will gain great prestige." Asturias said in a rare voice.
"Since the treasure has such a close relationship with you, the baron, wouldn't it be bad for me to rush in?" Su Mu asked.
"It's okay, Sue, you have proven your ability and character with your past actions, if you are worried about this, you can marry my daughter, I don't know if you have a fancy for that? Actually, they're pretty good. ”
"Baron's daughter?" Su Mu thought, this is an opportunity for a sugar daddy, a dowry of 10 billion to say less, and the baron's daughters are all beautiful, I don't know if the baron plans to give himself a royal sister or a girl, or a crazy Lori?
Su Mu thought of Nana at this time, and suddenly felt that the girl was actually very good, and hurriedly shook his head with a dry smile: "I'm sorry, I'm already interested in someone, I'm afraid I can't accept the Baron's suggestion." ”
"You're interested in someone?" Asturias was disappointed, he didn't expect his plan to marry his daughter to come to naught, and he thought he was very hopeful when he saw this young man looking forward to his daughter so much.
"Regarding the treasure, it has been 20 years since the commission was released, why is it still not completed? Could it be that the treasure has already been secretly taken away? Or is it a cosmic disaster that completely ceases to exist? ”
"You have noticed," said Asturias, with some curtle, "that although the value of the treasure may have shrunk considerably over the years, no one dares to ignore the direct benefits therein, resulting in a number of harsh restrictions and safeguards in the commission; In addition, the treasure is indeed a long history, counting from my ancestors, almost 2500 years have passed, and there must be changes, and it is not so easy to find, so no pioneer has completed it so far. ”
After Su Mu learned the basic information about the discovery of the Night King's treasure, he still planned to take it, and then go to other planets to look for clues to the discovery, or try his luck, and directly recall the location of those discoveries in the Great Exploration Era 1.0 in his impression, which is actually very troublesome.
Of course, the most important thing is that the discovery of the Night King's Treasure has both the function of making money and increasing prestige, and if it is completed, it will kill two birds with one stone, and if you think about it rationally, you will know that it is much better than those discoveries that have no oil and water and have to pay for supplies.
"I see, Lord Baron, I wonder if you would like to give me the commission?"
"Sue, are you willing to retrieve the treasure?" Asturias asked, somewhat lost.
"Yes, of course I do." Su Mu replied without hesitation.
Asturias was more and more pleasantly surprised, and then agreed with him on the details of the entrustment, and then told him more clues left by the ancestors back then, but at this time Asturias found that Su Mu wanted not much benefit, that is, 1/5 of the treasure, pay cash, and the physical part of the treasure was slowly handled by the baron, but he actually had to go out of the ship and people by himself, so that his initial investment would have to exceed 1 billion, and he had to pay 2 billion for the completion of the commission, which made him feel as if he had made a loss-making business.
However, this will fulfill the last wish of the ancestors, and then I think that after making the discovery, I will definitely gain the reputation of "Friend of the Pioneers" within the kingdom, this money... He can afford to come out of Asturias!
For the next month, Su Mu stayed on the planet Mertura, waiting for Franco to recruit a new crew of 20 and two captains, as well as to find an old ship from the planet, and officially form a fleet to start a larger trade.
On the other hand, the baron magnificently sent him a new Rover-type spaceship, equipped with 3 explosive guns, and sent an additional personal attendant of his own, Kaminia, who was originally a professional soldier, plus 20 soldiers as a crew, and in this way, their treasure hunt team was formed.
