"Alright," Helen broke the silence, "I'll leave this matter to you, and you can help translate the newly discovered passages in the ruins first." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Magellan looked at the smile on the face of the beautiful count, and his heart was alarmed, and his intuition told him that Helen was going to pit his teammates for the expedition.

"I thought, we can just put the white hat aside, can't we? He's just an explorer who doesn't understand what an archaeological discovery is. ”

"I'll take care of this, and as for you, you can go to work now. ”

Magellan knew that it would be useless to go on, so he shrugged helplessly and left.

............

Magellan, who stepped out of the tent, did not immediately go to work, but returned to his tent. He closed the curtain, tossed his briefcase-sized rucksack into the hammock, and sat down on the only small bench in the tent.

Helen didn't ask why Magellan was able to find the buried ruins, and he didn't say. This was the understanding between the two men, and the real reason why there were several explorers on the expedition - Helen had promised that the explorers would take what they had discovered alone for themselves.

So how did Magellan discover that underground temple?

As the saying goes:

"Captain Touching Gold has three treasures

Luoyang shovel, sapper shovel

There's one more you can't guess."

That's right, he relied on the artifact Luoyang shovel.

Magellan did not tell anyone that in addition to being hired by Helen to dig up the ruins, Magellan also received a bounty from the Royal Geographical Society to collect geological samples two meters below the surface of the area. So when he came, he brought the dusty Luoyang shovel with him.

Because of the existence of "magic" in this world, with the support of retractable materials, most tools can be reduced to the size of a palm when not in use. Otherwise, the Luoyang shovel is heavy and occupies space, and Magellan may not be able to take it so far.

Magellan took out a gold-rimmed monocle from his bosom, carefully placed it on his left eye, and then took out the piece of glass that held the image, and held it up to the glasses.

Like Helen's expensive glass disc, this monocle can read information from the glass, but it is much cheaper. Still, the monocle bankrupted Magellan, who had just made a windfall at the time, and even paid more than the Luoyang shovel, which consumed a huge amount of retractable material.

However, unlike the Luoyang shovel that has been eating ashes, this monocle is definitely worth the price.

Magellan looked through the monocle for a long time, and finally put the glass down and let out a sigh.

The golden monkey statue was far more important than he expected, and Helen should have noticed it, but as before, she didn't even think to tell him.

This means that he will almost certainly be sold.

Thinking of this, Magellan couldn't help but feel depressed, he didn't have much intersection with the white hat at all, but at this time when he was closest to getting rich, this thing jumped out disgusting, it was just like the plot in the online article.

When I was in middle school, Magellan, who felt that he was too miserable and faceless, and Ron, a pretentious precocious second-year teenager in white hat, had a few small fights. It didn't take long for the two to skip a grade and go their separate ways, Magellan felt that the end of the world was far from seeing each other again, and the classmates were going goodbye, but he never expected that it would not be too late for people to memorize words for ten years, and something almost impossible to happen happened like this.

Magellan, in frustration, tucked his monocle into his arms and began to read: "The heart is as clear as ice, and the sky does not fall......

After thinking like this for a while, he finally calmed down.

If you think about it, the appearance of the white hat is not a coincidence at all. After all, he is an explorer, and his first reaction when he sees the expedition team is "someone has come to rob Lao Tzu's money". I am afraid that from the first day of the expedition, there were indigenous warriors lurking in the woods, quietly watching each member of the team. Because of this, Magellan was blocked after finding the golden monkey.

"It's a genius white hat. Magellan snorted coldly and said in his heart.

It took three long years to build up their presence among the natives, and it took more than patience. Magellan had a vague feeling that the white hat had discovered something remarkable, otherwise he would not have made such a big gamble. That means that the expedition is going to be in trouble, and in the final analysis, it's himself going to be in trouble.

Magellan squirted a foul word in his heart, stepped out of the tent, and headed straight for the place where the scholars had translated their newfound discoveries.

It was a slightly larger tent, much smaller from the outside than Helen's, but once you walked inside, you could see that there was a much larger space for a large table full of things, a few bookshelves, and finally a large enough space for several people to walk around.

Magellan smiled and greeted a few of the people inside, then took a rubbing, pen and paper from the large table in the middle, and walked aside to translate.

Most of the time, translation is a mechanical job, especially after several experts have already solved the most difficult parts, which is why Magellan, who has no knowledge and no skills, can mix in with several linguists. He glanced at the strange words on the rubbing, then walked over to a bookshelf and took down a thick booklet.

This booklet is a text translation that already knows the meaning, basically the same as a bilingual dictionary, with an unrecognizable word in the front and an explanation that can be recognized in the back line. A half-witted person like Magellan basically follows the map, and if he encounters a new word, he doesn't have to translate it himself, and he can get a verbal praise from an expert.

Just by looking at the bookshelves full of pamphlets, the study of paleographies was very rewarding, but Magellan knew that the expedition was still far from the real goal.

Helen had told him about the expedition that there was a buried ancient civilization that included at least a bazaar of gold utensils and a tax storehouse full of gold. So far, the only gold the expedition has found is the monkey statue - and it has been stolen.

Magellan thought that maybe Helen didn't care if she could dig for gold, but the expedition team did. It is inhabited by outlaws, who call themselves explorers or explorers, a group of people who dream of making a fortune by digging for gold in a place no one has ever visited.

After translating the last word on the rubbing, Magellan closed the booklet on his left hand and put it back on the shelf. He thought, "Anyway, the people who troubled the countess are dead." Then I felt a lot more relaxed.
