150 King's Clues
On the third day after returning to Anbei Castle on the Ishikari Plain, the giant earthworm also arrived at the edge of the city and made its first appearance under Liang En's command.
The appearance of the giant earthworm made everyone show shocked expressions, and when this earthworm opened up the wasteland under Liang En's orders, everyone present showed Liang En's respect in their hearts.
After all, construction is obviously more difficult than destruction, and Liang En's ability to tame such a terrifying monster and devote himself to construction is naturally an extremely respectable thing.
Thanks to the addition of this giant earthworm, all the work is on track. It was at this time that he announced to the people around him that he planned to wander around and try to find his own opportunities.
But the reality is that Liang En has received a message from the modern world, telling him that the thing he had been looking for about the remains of the Lost King is now somewhat visible.
In a way, what Liang En said is indeed true, but he is not traveling in this world, but going to another world to find opportunities.
"Please bring this." Just as the sailboat was about to pull anchor and set sail, Ao Lei, who was unable to leave because she had seized some kind of inspiration in the previous battle and needed to retreat, ran to the dock from a distance, and then threw a pendant at Liang En.
It is a pendant that looks the size of a baby's palm and is surrounded by a circle of gold, and in the center of the gold edge is a silver sheet with a raised ring of growth rings, exuding a mother-of-pearl color.
"The pendant is inlaid with my scales, and as long as I have this, I will be able to talk to you whenever I have time for at least the next year."
Just as Liang En was studying what the pendant was, Ao Lei put her hands in front of her mouth, and then shouted to Liang En standing on the boat like an ordinary person.
"No problem, I'll get in touch with you whenever I'm free." Liang En took the dragon scale necklace and hung it around his neck. Then he waved. "Don't worry, I'll be back in a month at most this timeβ"
As the figure standing on the dock waving vigorously became smaller and smaller, the ship gradually sailed out of the harbor.
And when the boat completely sailed out of the estuary and into the sea, Liang En also switched the boat driving mode to self-driving, and then checked the information he had received earlier.
"Looks like I'm dark under the lights." After briefly checking the information, Liang En was surprised to find that this clue was actually related to his alma mater, the University of Leicester.
According to the data, just six months ago, a newspaper sponsorship manager named Philippa Langley, a historian and amateur film editor, approached the archaeology department of Rice University to find the remains of Richard III, but was refused.
The reason for the refusal was also simple, as the woman claimed to have visited Leicester just a few years ago when she was planning to write the play for King Richard III and visited an old wall located in a car park.
The wall is part of what remains of an old abbey, and there are some who suspect that Richard III was buried there after the Battle of Bosworth in 1485, and the Langley lady is convinced.
Unfortunately, she was only a middle-aged woman in her 40s, not a history major, so the University of Leicester rejected her application, hoping to put her money in a place where it seemed more valuable.
But this is good news for Liang En, because the woman is looking for a target that meets his requirements for making a royal lamp god, and the other party, who lacks funds, should not turn down a patron.
Of course, the premise is that he needs to be sure that the lady has really discovered something, and not just trying to use this excuse to cheat someone out of money.
As for Richard III, who was the target of the search, he was the last king of the Plantagenet dynasty and a controversial king in history, some believe that he was a vicious king, a regocide, but others believe that he was just thrown dirty water after his defeat.
He is rumored to have killed his nephew Edward V to ascend the throne and suppressed a rebellion by the Duke of Buckingham, who demanded succession to the throne. During a battle with Henry Tudor, Earl of Richmond, he was killed due to the defection of his subordinate William Stanley.
After his death, his body was stripped naked and horse-drawn back to Leicester, where he was eventually buried in a Catholic church in Leicester, where it was demolished during the Reformation and his remains were lost, some 200 years ago.
On the other hand, during the reign of Richard III, he made great achievements, establishing a complete legal aid system and bail system, assisting universities, churches, and establishing a northern parliament, which enjoyed widespread love in the region at that time.
After anchoring the ship in an uninhabited secluded harbor nearly a hundred kilometers from the settlement, Liang returned to the modern world and sent an email to the lady expressing his willingness to cooperate.
On the email, Liang En first revealed his identity, and then said that he was very interested in the other party's current work and was willing to talk to him about funding the exploration work.
At the end of the letter, Liang left his phone number so that he could be contacted if the other party was willing to accept the invitation.
This kind of practice of showing the hole cards at the beginning is obviously not in line with the law of negotiation, but in the face of such a middle-aged woman who dares to run around just for her dreams, Liang En feels that it is better to be direct.
It turned out that just a few hours later, Liang En, who had just finished dinner, received a call from Ms. Langley.
"Hello, this is Liang En, may I ask who you are?" Liang En was sitting in his study at the time to inquire about Richard III, and when he heard the phone ring, Liang En immediately picked up the phone.
"Hello, I'm Philippa Langley." A middle-aged woman's voice, looking a little tired, came out of the microphone, "I heard that you are willing to support my search efforts, is that true?" β
"Yes, it's true, because I'm very curious about this vanished king." Confirming the identity of the other party, Liang En said in an extremely serious tone, while recalling the knowledge about the king in his mind.
"In Shakespeare's work, the king is a cruel and stupid monarch. But I guess a king who is able to participate in multiple wars in a short period of time should not be as bad as described. β
"Yes, I think so too." After listening to Liang En's words, this Langley Ling seemed a little excited, and there was a feeling of meeting a bosom friend in the mountains and rivers.
"So I think it's time for me to find this king and correct the slander against this king in history."
"It sounds like a β something meaningful, so I wish I could be a part of it......"
Liang En still has respect for this kind of person who pursues his dreams, so after chatting for more than half an hour and determining the other party's thoughts, Liang En finally decided to fund the other party's search work, and at the same time he also joined the search.
So the two sides agreed on the phone to meet in Leicester, England two days later, and then hung up the phone.
"It's called stepping on iron shoes and finding nowhere to go, so it doesn't take any effort to get it." After hanging up the phone, Liang En sighed deeply. "Hopefully everything will go well and find the remains of that king once and for all.
