Chapter 216: Lost
Stompe!
The sound of footsteps echoed in the dark corridor, although there was an electric light every few meters overhead, but the level of technology in this era could at most make it not dark.
Richard and Diana followed Churchill forward, and at the end of the passage was the Royal Academy, the collection of the Ark of the Golden Testament.
"Isn't this kind of thing like the Golden Testament supposed to be in the royal treasury, why is it stored in the Royal Academy?" After a period of relaxation, Richard has been able to treat historical celebrities like Churchill with a normal heart, after all, he is not from the same world, and in the DC world, his status may not be as good as that of British superheroes.
However, Richard did not despise him, in the end, it was the man who climbed to the top of power by himself, this future big fat man is much stronger than him in other aspects except combat effectiveness, and even in the DC world, superpowers do not mean everything, Batman and Lex Luthor have something to say about this.
"Because the Ark of the Golden Covenant is different from other artifacts." Churchill also treated them with an equal and slightly respectful attitude, and in his opinion, the strong deserve respect, no matter what asphalt they are, "The Royal Scientific Corps has detected strange energy from above, so it has been placed here for research." ”
"Royal Scientry?" What kind of organization is this, I don't think I've ever heard of it.
"Oh, this name may be unfamiliar to you transcendents, but another name you may have heard of, the predecessor of the Order, the Royal Society of Magicians."
...........
It's even stranger, okay, besides, the Wizards' Guild has turned into a scientific group, you Britons are serious?
Seeing the silence behind him, Churchill turned his head to see two confused faces.
....... Well, it seems that in the transcendent realm, their British Empire is not as well-known as he thinks..... However, it is understandable that compared with the Greek civilization and the distant Chinese civilization, the history of the British is still a little shorter.....
“... So, have you two heard of Merlin? Churchill said another name, Diana continued to be dazed, and Richard reacted.
"Oh, Archmage Merlin, the one who assisted King Arthur, I've heard of it."
Churchill breathed a sigh of relief, but he still had someone of his own house who could hold up some scenes.
“... Legend has it that our druids had a wandering master who taught him magic. ”
......... Damn, the history of civilization is remarkable, isn't it, and later civilizations have no human rights.... Churchill thought about it, there is a shorter history across the Atlantic, so they are not the most unlucky....
“... It should be the archmage you said Merlin, the Royal Magicians Association was created by Master Merlin, with the purpose of protecting the Kingdom of Great Britain in the transcendent realm, of course, it slowly extended to the entire British Empire in the later period, and carried out a series of integrations of magic and modern technology, so it is now renamed the Royal Science Corps. ”
"So, does Ares know about this organization?"
"Theoretically, I shouldn't know, but when I know his true identity, I don't dare to say it."
"Has this royal scientific group not discovered Ares' true face for so long? That's not good. Diana, who had not spoken much, made Churchill even more embarrassed.
“.... Well, after all, it's a god, and even if Merlin is alive, he can't say that he will be able to fight him, you say. Thinking about Ares's identity, and thinking about the two guys in front of him who had beaten Ares, Churchill's honorifics were more sincere.
"So, after studying for so long, has the scientific team come up with anything about the Golden Ark?" Richard pulled the topic back, and it was still the same sentence, once this thing had something to do with Ares, it was not that simple.
"I'm sorry, but I don't know that yet." Churchill apologized, "In fact, I was new to the department. For some reason, I was demoted to the rank of Minister, but after taking over, I found out that the Minister was actually the liaison officer between the Science Corps and the King, of course, in order to familiarize myself with the relevant work as soon as possible, I had been looking through the materials related to the Science Corps during this time, and I happened to see the relationship between Ares and the Golden Ark. ”
The three of them chatted as they walked to the end, where two soldiers, after checking Churchill's papers, opened a huge iron door embedded in the wall, the thickness and opening of which made Richard feel like a vault door, and he didn't know whether it was to prevent people from entering or from anything from getting out.
Walking through the gate, the scene was relatively normal, a wide hall was constantly filled with people in different clothes, some wearing white coats, some in suits and leather shoes.
The hall was brightly lit, obviously much better than the corridor, although there was no sunlight here, but Richard did not feel depressed, he looked around, the hall was surrounded by five corridors, leading to different directions, there were four people coming and going, only one was not empty.
In front of them, a young man in a suit was looking at them with a smile, "Hello Mr. Churchill, the Science Corps has been notified of your arrival and has asked me to be here to greet you. My name is Bloom, Orlando. Bloom, in charge of receiving you..."
"Alright, Elven Prince, don't talk nonsense, take us to see the Golden Ark first, and make sure it's not lost." Richard interrupted the somewhat depressed Orlando. Bloom's kind words, regardless of his archery skills, the most important thing at the moment is to identify the target.
"The Ark of the Golden Covenant?" Bloom looked at Churchill to confirm the order.
"Yes, Mr. Bloom, please take us there, these two are guests of the king, and know of the existence of the Golden Ark of the Covenant."
"Uh, okay." Seeing that Churchill had said so, Bloom stopped talking nonsense, and led the three of them to the passage where there were no people.
"In front is the treasury of the scientific group, and there has been no research related to the Golden Ark recently, so it should be inside." Sensing Richard's anxious mood, Bloom's guidance was quick, and he took them to the end of the passage in a few steps and opened the door.
Behind the two wooden doors were two iron doors, and after Bloom explained his intentions, the guard pressed the communication button and reported to someone, and soon, the iron door slowly opened with a rattling sound, from this point of view, this place is quite scientific.
Behind the iron door is a huge warehouse, with rows of iron shelves reminding Richard of the IKEA pick-up area, but any box placed here can probably buy the entire IKEA.
The three of them were led by Bloom to the location of cargo number 1039, and then watched his expression change rapidly to horror, the location of the number 1039 was empty, and the golden ark of the covenant was missing.
