Chapter 8: The True Entrance

Also on July 13, after two days of preparation, the consultants and others in Europe finally began the official excavation of the treasure

The leader of the exploration of the ruins is undoubtedly Dark Water, and the consultant and the gunsmith are considered to have assisted in the two days, and Dark Water told the consultant in detail the general exploration plan, the information he knows and the error prediction of the actual situation, as well as the possible emergencies in the ruins, etc., and the latter is naturally imprinted in his mind word for word

The gunsmith mainly remembers that the composition of the weapons of the ruins, the operation of the defense system, and other information are his specialty, but he is not the kind of person who can memorize long speeches by rote, he is often immersed in the scene, and only useful memories emerge to make things, whether it is shooting, the gunsmith basically "follows the feeling", of course, his intuition is indeed very accurate

In addition, on the side of the Iron Commandment, they can be said to be wary of the three people who rebel against the cross, so they have not been idle in the past few days On the evening of July 10th, Dasher had already handed over a document to Lodovic, recording the details of the person John De Soto Lodovico is also in the important position of the inspector general of the Holy Land, in terms of ability, he is only a paper level, and he can climb to this position, of course, not by force, he seems to be kind and kind on weekdays, like a Santa Claus, in fact, he is suspicious by nature, and he is good at forbearance, not what your adviser says, we will take it all, even if it is just a name, Lodovico has to send someone to secretly investigate it thoroughlyto be reassured

The information obtained from various sources shows that John DeSoto is indeed a well-known archaeologist and explorer, who has left footprints in the poor mountains and rivers of the world, and he and his team have also unearthed some valuable civilizational heritage

Judging from the photographs, this must be John himself, and on the morning of the 11th, his theory of Olmec civilization seems to be more reliable, and this explorer gentleman can be regarded as having the title of "professor", of course, honorary professor, the kind that goes to the university and gives a lecture and is immediately conferred, but something is better than nothing

Besides, the academic school is nothing great, if you go to the university and find a professor who is serious about the Olmec civilization to lead the team to explore and find a ruin, it must be ten deaths and countless real experiences and film and television works tell us, if you are going to archaeology, exploration, inverted fights, etc., etc...... You'd better find a god-like guide, such as the kind of natives who squat on the side of the road and dip their fingers in the unidentified liquid suspected of urine in a puddle on the ground, put it in their mouths and taste it, and then tell you that you can see a herd of zebras 15 kilometers after turning left; or a strong man who is 1.9 meters tall, weighs 100 kilograms, and has muscles as hard as stones, who is alert and resolute, brave and resourceful, and can kill the Predator with a scout trap; and at worst, you have to find an academic school that combines theory and practice, wearing a cowboy hat and a leather whip

All in all, John should be the most suitable leader, and even if the Iron Commandment is forced to fight the Reverse Cross, at least the explorer faction must be left to use

The only suspicion is that the last whereabouts of John DeSoto were found was when he disappeared into a rainforest in South America with his team in November last year, and after that, they seemed to have disappeared from the world, and even their family and friends thought that these people were missing or dead. These questions, the Iron Commandment is unknown, and it doesn't matter, they just need to confirm his identity

Since the Iron Commandments had no direct experience with Darkwater, they had no idea that there was such a creature in the world, and no one doubted the authenticity of the John DeSoto in front of them, and it was impossible for them to connect him with the ancient race that built this ruin, which also made them suffer a lot in the process of exploring the ruins later......

On the morning of the thirteenth, the three people who went against the cross walked out of the hotel, each carrying a mountaineering travel bag behind them, which looked bulging and stuffed with things

However, the equipment in the bag is not a secret, even the bag was bought by someone sent by the Iron Ring to run errands, and the consultant just discussed it with Dark Water and the gunsmith and made a list of items

After a few days, their treatment is still the same, regardless of whether they act alone or stay together, each of them is followed by two knights behind them, and they can say in advance where they want to go, there will be a special car to pick up and drop off on foot, but even if you run, the two knights in charge of monitoring will follow in fact, in fact, it will not be too difficult for them to shake off their tails, but they don't feel the need to do it, because the disappearance of the play is likely to lead to a chain reaction such as martial law and arrest in the whole city, after all, it is a time of war, this is a city occupied by illegal politicians, the headquarters and foundation of the Iron Commandment, you can say that it is a liberated area, or it can be said that it is a occupied area, in short, everyone's nerves are tense, can mobilize a hundred capable people to come out and arrest people in minutes

The three of them were also taken to the Colosseum's excavation site in a luxury car today, where Lodovico was already waiting, and where he was, he could see the fake Mexican Dascher

Getting out of the car, the advisor walked straight towards Lodovico, scanning the crowd with his peripheral vision as he walked, in addition to Vinisha and Sueside, he also saw a few faces, these people were undoubtedly the "expedition members" selected by the Iron Commandment, at least they should be at the level of a good warrior knight or an elite knight, it seems that the other party has foreseen the danger in the ruins from the equipment carried this time, so he has the foresight to find some more useful cannon fodder, in case he needs it from time to time

"Look at it like this, the team will be very bloated," the advisor did not greet or politely greet the other party

"Fifteen people, I don't think it's a lot," Lodovico replied

"I didn't say the numbers, I said the team was bloated," the advisor said.

"What's the difference?" replied Lodovico unpleasantly

Vanessa walked over to the advisor, she had already tied her ponytail and her mouth was rare without chewing sweets: "He means there are too many guys in the way"

When Lodovico heard this, he snorted coldly and said to the advisor, "Do you think that I will allow you three outsiders to enter the ruins that contain the treasures belonging to our organization without the watchful eye of others?

"You?" repeated the advisor, laughing, "no kidding, you are the Iron Commandment, not the real Templars, the times are different, and your Grand Master and Master Priest should know in their hearts that the things you play with now are far more sophisticated than they were in the fourteenth century."

Taking a step back, even if you are in the same vein as the Templars, the treasure is only the result of the plundering of the Templars all over Europe, and what you have looted will naturally be transformed into legal property after a few hundred years?"

"That's right," Vanessa said to the advisor before Lodovico grabbed it, "Whether it's power or money, as long as you guarantee that you won't be robbed back, and you can enjoy it without sanctions, then don't say that for hundreds of years, even if it changes hands at the moment of grabbing, it's not in line with law and morality, but this world has always been working like this, isn't it?"

"Huh...... What a sensible woman" The advisor smiled: "Then can I think so, the treasure buried underneath, whoever can grab it, belongs to whom"

"Yes, if you have the ability, you can take everything you want to rob, and no one will accuse you of taking the property that belongs to the Iron Commandment," Venisha said

"So confident," the advisor pretended to be thinking, "Isn't your ability to blow up my brain at any time with a snap of your fingers?"

Venisha naturally didn't answer his question, but just replied: "Don't talk about it anymore, the number of people in the team won't decrease anyway, you have your plan, I'll ......" Her words paused for a moment: "...... We have our considerations, you are just valuable collaborators, and we are not the ones we have taken the initiative to call the shots."

The advisor looked into her eyes, and quickly understood the implication in the other party's words that Venisha was indeed a very well-known figure, but she was not the Grand Master after all, and in the city of Rome, she was far from the level of being a one-size-fits-all, and she needed to compromise with the other high-level members of the organization and make some not-so-clever decisions, such as bringing those dozen cannon fodder...... This will silence some people

The most despised by consultants is the so-called "decision-making level" in the bureaucracy who likes to point fingers, and there are often cases in this world where laymen lead insiders, and layman leaders in high positions in order to brush up their sense of existence or show their shrewdness and ability, they issue some orders that do more with half the effort, or even go in the opposite direction, and they have to let the people below carry them out, and the result can only be a waste of social resources, a waste of other people's time and labor, and a demonstration of their own mentally retarded talents, but the next time, those guys still will not learn the lesson, and they have tried again and again

"Hey, I sympathize with you," the advisor put a hand on Vanessa's shoulder

Vanessa pushed his hand away: "Don't take advantage of the maneuver" She said this with a smile on her face, but in a very unkind tone

The gunsmith happened to come over at this time, he was carrying his travel bag on his back, and he was holding the consultant's one on his chest, because the backpack was very large, the gunsmith didn't see what the consultant did, he was also stunned after hearing this, and thought: Is this guy too arrogant, this broad daylight, Lang Lang, there are so many people standing around, in front of everyone's eyes, I open the suitcase and take a backpack, you can't help but "move your hands and feet" to a woman of hostile forces If there is no one around, wouldn't you just use the thread of truth to tie people up and make a hungry tiger pounce on them?

"Next time you still shout indecent, social pressure may force him to correct his behavior" The gunsmith handed the backpack to the advisor, and turned away after spitting out, without giving anyone a chance to explain

Darkwater also stepped forward with his own equipment on his back and said to Lodovik, "How many people are you going to send with us, and how are your equipment configured? Is it the same as ours?"

At last came a man who spoke more pragmatically and reliably, so Lodovico borrowed the donkey from the slope and introduced the three men of the Cross to the ten knights who had been sent to accompany them, and the other two were Suyside and Venissa

As for the equipment, the people of the Iron Commandment also brought their own set of things, and they each brought a backpack Of course, what exactly was in it was kept secret

The advisor scoffed at this, he knew that the gang must have brought weapons after all, Lodovico just didn't believe that the advisor could help them find the treasure in peace, beware of the threat from the Countercross was the first priority, and the danger from the ruins themselves seemed to be nothing

After learning about the situation, Darkwater assumed the style of the explorer leader, adapted and used a set of speech lines from John DeSoto's memory, and said a nonsense to the knights of the Iron Commandment, which had no substance, basically meaning that under my leadership, everyone will be able to return safely, take out the treasure, and make great achievements

Darkwater has no human emotions at all, but he can infer the role of human emotions through the analysis of the memories of the devoured, so as to imitate the appearance of emotional creatures is nothing more than using expressions and tones to convey some kind of underlying information

At this moment, his morale-boosting speech really eased the tense atmosphere, after all, now is cooperation, someone has to come out to reconcile the tense relationship between the two organizations

Seeing that the preparations were almost complete, Lodovico asked: "Mr. John, yesterday you said that you had thought of a way to enter the ruins, but you refused to reveal it to us in advance, and now that you are about to leave, you can always explain to the people who are staying above, and you must be clear about the situation in order to provide support in time."

The advisor said in his heart, you old fox just want to know how to quickly send reinforcements into the ruins to rush into the ruins in case the situation changes

Darkwater replied in a very normal tone: "Just go in through the entrance"

"Entrance?" Lodovico wondered, "The entrance to that pyramid under the pit should be deep underground, do you know the exact depth of the entrance?"

"If it's deep underground, then I'll have to dig again, and I won't set to leave today," Darkwater replied, "The entrance to the ruins is this pit, and somewhere else"

Seeing that Lodovico seemed to have something to ask, the advisor rushed first: "Don't show that expression, if we tell you the real place of entry in advance, you will definitely send someone to investigate in advance, and it will make things worse, so that the entrance cannot be invaded."

"How do you know that there is an entrance somewhere else?" "We've been studying here for months, and there's no useful hint on the spire under the pit, and you've only seen it once?"

Venissa, who was silent for a while, said thoughtfully, "I think I know the origin of the 'entrance'......"

"There are still people who understand," the advisor continued, "yes, it is a passage discovered by the Comte de Bergé of the time."

"What?" Lodovico was visibly puzzled

Vanessa said: "This ruin itself belongs to an ancient civilization BC, and was not built by the remnants of the Templars in the 14th century, the Templars only discovered the existence of the ruins based on some kind of coincidence and chose to use it as a location for the treasure, regardless of the factors of the able, since with the current level of technology in the world, it is impossible to forcibly invade this building with external forces, so the people who transported the treasure into the ruins hundreds of years ago must have found a normal way to use it."

As she explained to Lodovico and the others, Darkwater had already saddled his gear and stepped towards the southeast corner of the arena, and the gunsmith followed quickly

The advisor felt that explaining to the guys would be a waste of time, and he urged Vanessa and the others who wanted to follow him to hurry up

The group followed Dark Water to the wall in the southeast corner of the Colosseum, the outer wall on this side was not damaged, Dark Water came to the wall, caressed the stone wall, looking for something, there was everything on it, and even the graffiti of tourists who came here a few years ago could be found

Dark Water bent over, at a height of about a meter, inch by inch, and soon, a symbol came into his sight, it was a special trace, the imprint of hundreds of years of sun mountain rainforest could not wash away, in the Middle Ages, people interpreted this technique as alchemy or magic, until today, there is no way to verify how these things work

"It's the mark they left at the time," Darkwater said as he continued to grope along the wall to find a second mark

To the outsider, those imprints were just somewhere on a stone wall, and there was a small piece of different color that said it was a pattern, and it was impossible to tell what was drawn, just a bunch of messy lines

Lodovico followed, seemingly recognizing some of the fame, and his heart was beating a drum: who was this John DeSoto, and why did he know so well about the mysterious symbols of the Templars? Even within the Iron Commandment, only a few people in the upper echelons had this knowledge

But Darkwater seemed to be able to get information from these imprints, and went around the walls and columns, finding one after another, and the location of those marks, one more inconspicuous than the other, and each lower than the other

Later, Dark Water was already squatting on the ground, looking for those marks, and finally, he picked up some loess on the ground with his hands, and found a slightly reddish brand at the base of a stone wall, which was easier to understand, it was two red crosses, one large and one small, one high and one low
