Chapter 5: The Knight's Crest

In a world where the essence allows magic to exist, ghosts and curses are like archaeological twins, always entangled in each other. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 And in the face of these troubles, most explorers are at a loss. Scientology, which is best at dealing with these, is the place where tomb robbers are the most numerous, and herein lies the problem, if you are haunted by ghosts or cursed by your body, you don't even want to be redeemed from the one supreme god.

Therefore, this ability of the "sun" is really very cherished and powerful, worthy of its status as a god.

Magellan thought about this, happy in his heart, and then despised himself a little, and now that he was a professor, he was no longer an explorer, and the chance of being cursed was almost non-existent, and there was really nothing to be happy about.

There was no one in the open space in front of the chapel, and Leon was so notorious that even the naughtiest children did not dare to come here to play, much to the dismay of Magellan, who had carefully prepared a little "little trick" in case of an uninvited guest.

When the sun was about to set, Leon returned with a rabbit.

In the desert during the day, it was very hot, and there were hardly any animals running out of the place, Leon knew that Magellan had let him go out to get rid of him, but he still did not hesitate to lie in the scorching sun for a whole day, even he thought it was incredible, but the thought of being able to leave here immediately, the gatekeeper felt that he could lie down for another two or three days.

"Pack up, let's go right away. ā€

The first thing Leon heard when he had just returned was that Magellan told him to go, and the gatekeeper went to the well and drank wildly, and then said to Magellan, "Let's go." ā€

Magellan smiled and pulled a metal kettle out of his pocket.

Although there is magic in this world, there is no dimensional bag or storage ring, and there is also extraordinary power that has not yet been discovered. The commonly used ones that can be shrunk and easy to carry are actually made of retractable magic materials, such as this kettle, which is made of retractable magic metal, shrinking to half a palm-sized size when not in use, and returning to its original state when it is used to hold three liters of water.

Leon watched the kettle grow bigger as if it had been blown up, and with the expression of God on his face, he barely knelt down and kowtowed.

Magellan smiled and threw the kettle to the gatekeeper: "Fill, back." ā€

They eventually set off just in time for the sun to set.

The night in the desert is not much more comfortable than the day, and the two are indistinguishable, which can be called a moment of brightness, in short, one dies of heat and the other freezes to death.

After a night and a cozy morning, the two finally arrived at their destination: Professor Cook's archaeological team camp.

"You're back so fast...... You don't have to rush so much, there's nothing to be found here. ā€

The old professor was quite surprised by Magellan's appearance, after all, he found it boring here and finally found a chance to get out.

"I've made a very important discovery," Magellan smiled, introducing Leon to Sir Cook, "and the local guide has helped me a lot. ā€

"Ah," said the old professor, with a sincere smile on his face, "welcome to our expedition, you must be tired, go to White first, and let him find a tent for you to rest in." ā€

The gatekeeper nodded and left.

"Come here," Professor Cook said, leading Magellan to his tent, "have you found anything?"

"A small chapel with a knight buried in the cemetery at the back. Magellan said and took out the cowhide package.

"Ah......" The old professor exclaimed as he looked at the sword, but when he saw the ring, he almost jumped up from his chair, "Reinhardt of the Black Forest!"

"What?!" Magellan was taken aback, "Reinhardt, the legendary head of the Knights Hospitaller, the Silver Hand?!"

"That's right...... Professor Cook picked up the ring, his tone full of exclamation, "do you remember the origin of the coat of arms?"

"Uh," Magellan frowned, trying to recall the lessons he had listened to when he was at the Academy, "during the Crusades, the Scientology army was complex, and in order to distinguish them from each other, they began to use heraldic ......"

"That's right, the first armies to use heraldry included the Knights Hospitaller, remember their emblems?"

The old professor was like a strict but excellent teacher, who was kind to Magellan.

"A variant of the cross motif, usually a white coat of arms on a black background...... Similar to the pattern of four arrows posed as a cross. Magellan said, discovering that part of the pattern on the ring was the cross.

"That's true, but few people know that Reinhardt, the most famous Grand Master of the Knights Hospitaller, the Silver Hand, has his own coat of arms, unlike all the other Grand Masters. ā€

Professor Cook handed the ring to Magellan: "Tell me, what do you see?"

"One hand...... Broken?"

"That's the most famous legend about Reinhardt, who once volunteered to be a prisoner of war in order to heal his comrades who had been captured by the Orc Empire's army, but the orcs didn't want to believe him unless he cut off his sword-holding hand, as in all Scientology stories, he cut off his left hand. Later, the Pope gave him a prosthetic leg made of silver, which was not only vivid, but also said to be able to move, which was regarded as a miracle by the people of the time, which is why Reinhardt, who was originally called the Black Forest, became Reinhardt, the hand of silver. ā€

"That hand holds a handle...... Sword?"

"The strangely shaped sword Glory Jade, it is said that its name comes from the fact that the shape of its sword body is similar to a kind of leaf, and there are many legends related to it, including the forest fairy theory, the orc empire mage princess gift theory, the memory of the hometown of the Black Forest and so on. ā€

"Under the cross...... Cups?"

"That's right, the sacred treasure, the treasure that can turn water into divine blood, a treasure that can heal all diseases and wounds, the Holy Grail. Reinhardt is one of the most steadfast believers in the legend of the Holy Grail, and it is said that he joined the Crusades in search of the Holy Grail in search of it, and eventually disappeared in search of the Holy Grail. ā€

"Together, these are Grand Master Hospitallers, Reinhardt, the Silver Hand, the Lion of the Black Forest, and their exclusive coat of arms. The only known documents with this pattern are the confidential documents in the Privy Archives of the Holy See where the Loren Holy See is located, and the only other documents are the personal collection of the Marquis Robert von Heinlein, the Elector of the Holy Loren Empire, and the family letters of the Count of Reinhardt. ā€

"Ha......" Magellan sighed, "what a big man." ā€

"You really ...... "Possess outstanding talents," Professor Cook said, putting his hands on the table, looking tired, "some people always make people feel that they were born to do something......"
