Chapter 199: The Holy Grail and the Sword of Kings that may be found
Lin Yi has never recorded his treasure hunting process, this time it is also a whim, thinking carefully about these processes is also a great blessing, in the future, you can also take it out to educate your children or take it out to pretend to be forced, and even build a few theme museums in the future, and it is also very attractive to put these records in the museum when the time comes.
Lin Yi copied one of the contents of the two parchments and wrote down the translated content in the corresponding position.
"This is the above is the deciphered content, of course, there is still a small part of it has not been cracked, after all, the grammatical meaning of the ancient language is somewhat different from the current one, and some things almost don't know where to fly. We all know King Arthur Pendragon, the legendary great king of ancient Britain. People know him more about him from Celtic myths and legends, medieval wild history documents, and the book "The Death of King Arthur", but no one has dabbled heavily in the real life of King Arthur. Legend has it that he was the leader of the Knights of the Round Table, an almost mythical legend known as the King of Eternity. ”
"The name of the Eternal King was spoken by the Nymph of the Lake of Avalon after the death of King Arthur, and the name also signifies King Arthur's glorious form. We can't deny his legend, but his tragic life is also comparable to his legend. Both of these parchments contain a number of stories about King Arthur, and this one is a biography of King Arthur, most of which are the same as modern legends, but some of them are different. But it is undeniable that this is a great discovery, and if some more evidence can be found, it can even prove that King Arthur is real and not a myth. The other one shows his weapons, Avalon and the Sword of Kings. ”
"King Arthur was the illegitimate son of the previous king and was raised by Merlin, the magician of the time. After the death of the old king, a sword was erected in the church, and the word was passed down that whoever drew the sword was the king of Britain.
”
King Arthur drew the sword in the stone under the guidance of Merlin, and Merlin announced the identity of the prince, and then ascended to the throne, this record is different from the historical records that have been handed down, which say that King Arthur drew the sword because he took the sword for someone else, and finally pulled out the sword, of course, it is also possible that the records of both sides are incomplete.
”
"The sword in the stone accompanied King Arthur to conquer the world, and made immortal achievements, but in the end it was cut off during the competition, the sword in the stone was a symbol of royal power at that time, after being cut off, King Arthur was very remorseful, and finally under the guidance of Merlin, he got a new sword from the hand of the lake fairy in the legendary country of Avalon, the sword of the king, I believe many people know this sword, the legendary invincible sword of the king and the scabbard Avalon that is far from harm. Merlin once admonished Arthur, "The sword of a king is mighty, but its scabbard is more valuable than its sword." The one who wields the sword of kings will never bleed, and you must not lose it. But the scabbard was eventually lost by King Arthur, which also laid the foundation for King Arthur's tragic end. ”
King Arthur founded the Knights of the Round Table, and in twelve battles finally succeeded in repelling the Saxon invasion from the north, advancing into the interior of Europe and defeating the powerful Roman Emperor Lucius. However, as the knights went in search of the Holy Grail, the mighty Knights of the Round Table collapsed and weakened, and were eventually betrayed by the queen and Lancelot, and finally betrayed by Mordred, who remained in the kingdom during the expedition to France, and finally died at the Battle of Camran. And the Sword of Kings was sent back to Avalon. ”
Lin Yi turned off the camera and looked at the parchment in front of him, revealing a look of ecstasy, because the hiding place of the Holy Grail and the location of Avalon were very clearly recorded, and Lin Yi believed that after finding some ancient maps to compare and calculate, he would be able to determine the approximate location of these two things.
Grail!
And the Sword of Kings!
These are all legendary treasures, will the British and the Burning Emperor Gang come over and grab it directly? Lin Yi suddenly had such an idea in his heart.
As for whether he can find it, Lin Yi has a lot of confidence in himself.
Lin Yi looked at another piece of parchment, which contained these records related to the Sword of Kings and Avalon, recording everything about the Sword of Kings and Avalon in detail. The Sword of Kings is forged in Avalon, the blade is made of gold, the hilt is set with precious stones, and its blade is as sharp as clay, while Avalon does not say that the wearer never bleeds, but that when he wears the Sword of the King, ten thousand soldiers do not come close. Avalon has a mysterious magnetic field that repels all metal from approaching.
Mysterious magnetic field, the sword of the king that cuts off all blades, Lin Yi looked at the information on it, his eyes narrowed, and based on the information on it, Lin Yi already had some guesses, the sword of the king and Avalon should be made of mysterious metal, and it is very likely to be a meteorite that fell from the sky.
Put away the parchment, and the next day Lin Yi wandered around the city and around again, the main purpose was some nearby hills and cliffs, according to the usual hiding style of these guys, it is very likely that these wild and uninhabited places, because Edinburgh in order to maintain the environment, so there are many places nearby that may be hiding places.
Lin Yi picked up a red pen and circled an irregular red circle on the map.
The red circle encloses most of the mountains, rivers, lakes and villages around Edinburgh.
This area is about 100 square kilometers. It is equivalent to more than one-tenth of Lin Yi's manor. Add to that the very complex terrain of this area, with rolling hills and steep peaks. Forests, valleys, lakes, there are more than 20 lakes in this area alone, as well as villages nestled in the mountains and lakes, historic cities, castles, monasteries and palaces.
It is very difficult to find a small key hiding place in such a large area and in such a complex terrain.
The key may be buried at the bottom of a very deep lake, an abandoned mineshaft, a hidden natural cave system, under a large tree. An underground, without any signs, or a monastery room, or a dwelling......
These are all possible.
The goal is just too big.
The next day, after searching for a whole day, Lin Yi didn't get anything, and he didn't search much in some areas.
On the third day, the search continued.
Day 4.
On the fifth day, Lin Yi had already searched more than half of the area, but so far he had not found a single trace.
On the sixth day, Lin Yi got up early in the morning but found that there was a heavy snowfall outside the window, and the snowflakes fell to the ground like goose feathers, and a thick pile of snow accumulated on the ground. Today's trip had to be terminated, and I couldn't go anywhere. Of course, there is also the factor that Lin Yi wants to rest, and the search for the past few days has made people a little tired.
