Chapter 447: The Cup of Drinking

"Is that what you're looking for?"

Lucilia asked, patting the dust off her body and crawling onto Arka's shoulder. Arka looked at the gray cup in his hand and nodded.

"The wine glass that Emperor Salalan once liked, has actually fallen into such a situation." Lucilia couldn't help but say as she looked at the dust and dirt that was on the cup.

Arka handed the cup to Lucilia and then looked at the surrounding scene.

The skeleton in front of him had been dead for an unknown amount of time, and the clothes on its body and most of the things it was carrying had long since turned into ashes with the passage of time.

However, you can also see the digging tools that have been completely embroidered into a lump next to it.

In the breach in the wall, you can still see a tool kit placed there, of course, the tools inside have long been broken and destroyed.

Shadetti, who had been walking around, also walked over, and Simon followed closely. There's really nothing to see around here, it's just an ordinary tomb.

"Is this a grave robber?" Xia Daiti asked, looking at the corpse.

Judging mainly by the surrounding scenes, this is just too obvious.

Arka nodded.

"I don't know how many years ago, maybe at that time, when the Salalan Empire was not destroyed, this tomb robber came here."

"I chiseled the stone wall of the tomb with a tool and entered this burial chamber. The sarcophagus was then chiseled open with tools.

It should have triggered the protective mechanism of this sarcophagus, so it died, maybe it was poison gas or something. ”

Because there is no external injury on the bones of the tomb robbers.

Arka crouched down slightly, looking inside from the broken part of the sarcophagus, and he saw a white light inside.

In other words, the white light seen on the map should be among these sarcophagi, which belong to the funerary goods.

Only some less valuable ones are placed outside.

The instant hourglass that Arka had obtained before should have been relatively well preserved.

The burial goods surrounding these older burial chambers have long since been destroyed.

It should be all the things that the deceased loved when he was alive, plus this is a small family. The things I like should be some more valuable cultural toys.

"But why is this goblet on this grave robber?" Xia Daiti asked with some confusion.

If this glass is the cup of the Great Salaland, as Arka says, the cup of the Great.

I can't even think of this tomb robber.

They didn't know that the Cup of Bitter Drink was actually a Holy Grail treasure.

"I don't know, let it sink into the long river of history." Arka said with a smile.

How many coincidences and processes are there between them to let such a treasure fall to the tomb robbers.

"And these sarcophagi......" Simon pointed to the coffins that had not yet been broken.

Arka shook his head: "Forget it, this is not a family that is too rich, and the funeral goods are not necessarily something too valuable."

These protections may not have completely disappeared yet, but forget it, we've got what we need to get. ”

Hearing this, several people nodded and didn't say anything more.

If it's just an ordinary funeral item, it really doesn't have much value to them.

All the way back to the hole they had just come out of, and then to drill through the hole they had dug down again. When they came up, they reburied the earth and sealed the hole.

After coming out, Arka took the cup in his hand, and the aqua blue water card appeared next to him, and a stream of water appeared and began to surround the cup.

Arka released the cup, and the water flowed into a spiral of washbasins around the cup and began to spiral clean.

Xia Daiti looked at this scene and couldn't help but say, "This should be regarded as an ancient cultural relic, right?" Although it was a magic item, it had been so long. Such a violent cleansing may damage it.

When the time comes, it will not be easy to sell enough value. ”

As the appraiser and seller of most of the ship's treasures, she had to be reminded at this time.

Hearing this, Arka turned his head to look at her and said with a smile, "Don't worry, it'll be fine, this is not an ordinary magic item...... It's a treasure. ”

"Hmmm?!!"

A few people around him turned their heads and stared at him with wide eyes, he hadn't said anything like that just now.

"Treasures?"

"That's right, it's a treasure, a Holy Grail level treasure."

Hearing this, Simon frowned, and she immediately thought of a big flaw: "That shouldn't be, if it's a treasure."

There's no way Emperor Salalan just let this treasure go, can he? The link between the treasured in the hands and the owner is so deep that it is impossible to take it without being discovered by the Emperor Salaland.

Not to mention the fact that it was taken by a tomb robber or even carried into another tomb. ”

Simon was the first to spot the problem and said.

When Arka heard this, he just shrugged his shoulders helplessly and said, "I don't know why this thing, I just know that this thing is indeed a treasure." ”

As he spoke, the murky water fell into the dirt beneath his feet. The cup of bitter drink, which had been completely cleaned, was held in Arka's hand and placed in front of everyone.

The cup is exactly as described.

A jewel about the size of a thumb is inlaid underneath, and then carved with a picture of a fat man drinking at a table with a banquet, surrounded by various men and women dressed in pompous clothes, dancing and drinking.

The overall structure should be forged from gold, and the overall appearance of this cup is very luxurious and exaggerated.

If it weren't for the relief carving on it that was a Dionysian banquet in the Golden Age, this cup really had a bit of rustic luxury.

Or that the former god of wine was a pompous and rustic extravagant god.

Arka poked the magic into the cup.

Three of the treasures in his possession were repulsed, but the cup repelled four.

Of course, Arka can also suppress this cup with his own scepter-level artifact, and then use it compulsorily.

But that doesn't make sense, it's like using a normal magic item.

It's going to take some effort to get under control.

"Didn't you expect to get a Holy Grail level treasure so easily?"

Xia Daiti took the cup and looked at it, and couldn't help but say.

Hearing this, Arka looked up at the sky, and could only say that it was very easy for them.

If for someone else, this treasure could be buried beneath that forever. Unless one day someone excavates the grave below.

Or a new tomb robber or a treasure hunt group is looking for these tombs and getting an unexpected catch.

However, for Arka, treasures like this are the easiest to obtain because everything is out there due to accidents, and I don't know where to bury them.

This kind of accidentally lost treasure is no different from picking up money for Arka.

At most, it takes more effort because of the different places where they are lost.

There is no deliberate hiding, no protective rituals for storage, no protection of powerful creatures.

Just a place that has been buried and may never be known.

For Arka, it's all about picking up money.

"It's a pity, we don't need Holy Grail treasures anymore." Looking at the cup, Simon said with some regret.

"Take it out and sell it, it's a treasure, and it's also the cup of bitterness used by Emperor Salaland. Believe me, I can definitely sell for more than the Holy Grail treasure should be. ”

Xia Daiti looked at the cup in his hand and said with a smile.

Then the sky suddenly darkened, and the curtain of night covered the sky.

Seeing this, everyone walked quickly back to the camp.

When the people returned to the camp.

Jason looked at Arka and the others and said, "What's the catch?" Actually spent a whole day outside. ”

That is, I stayed for about 20 hours.

Hearing this, Arka shook the cup he was holding.

"That's the one?"

"Yes, it's a cup of bitter drinking."

The people who were in the camp gathered around, but they didn't expect that they would just go out for a day, saying that they were going to explore the road first.

As a result, Arka and a few people, since they got it directly.

The process of pathfinding directly translates into a journey of harvest.

"Tell me how you got this thing." Urullius asked curiously.

Shadetti recounted their experience of the day, and Arka placed the cup on the table for everyone to see.

He himself opened the map and looked at the golden point of light that had dimmed.

【Cup of Drinking】

[Difficulty: Grave Robber]

[Popularity: 66.5w]

[Treasure Info: The wine cup used by the founding emperor of the Salalan Empire and the savior.]

For a person in this position, but also a person who loves fine wine. This is one of the Emperor's favorite items.

Left in a tomb that did not belong to him.

It is a treasure that can enhance the flavor of the sake poured into the glass, and enhance the sublimation of the sake with special effects. This function can be used without mastering the treasure. 】

Wait, Arka looked at the last item that appeared in the introductory message after obtaining the treasure.

In other words, the above refers to a function that can increase the deliciousness of the sake in the glass and add a special effect to the drink. It is possible to automatically produce such an effect when the treasure is not mastered.

Seeing this effect, Arka didn't think it was fake.

I patted my head and suddenly realized. If that's the case, the previous thing makes sense.

In other words, it is very likely that this treasure is not suitable for Salalan the Great, but he discovered this function, so he has been using this treasure.

Because this treasure is able to exert its essential ability without mastering it.

It's like if the image of the treasure is a sword, and the sword is unusually strong and sharp. So even if you don't master the treasure and don't use its special abilities, he's still a sword, capable of wielding and sharp.

You can even use the sword's properties to block enemy attacks, as it's extremely difficult to break.

This is also the reason why weapon-type treasures, or shield-type treasures, are very precious. Because of their appearance and the characteristics of the treasure, they will be strengthened differently.

What determines whether the value of this treasure will continue to rise is the special effect it can bring to the wine poured into the glass, what is it?

"So it's actually a treasure? You just went out for a day, and then you brought back a treasure? Jason asked, looking at Xia Daiti's eyes widen as he spoke.

Xia Dai nodded: "It's not easy to believe, but it's true." ”

"So what's the difference between that and picking up money? When will I pick it up too, and why is it so lucky? Jason asked, somewhat incomprehensibly.

Hearing this, a silver snake appeared in Arka's hand, shook it in front of Jason, and then bounced up in front of him and held it in his hand.

Alka, who was holding the silver snake, couldn't help but nodded: "Hmm...... Luck has changed again. ”

Looking at this scene, Jason felt like he had eaten a fly.

"You're damned!"

Matresa looked at the cup in the middle, feeling a little pity.

"We are no longer short of Holy Grail-level treasures, and excessive mastery will become a burden for us." It's a bit of a pity to say it.

"No, this treasure is different."

Arka said as he dragged the glass in front of him, then looked at Juan Lu: "Did you bring any wine?" ”

Juanlu nodded, spreading his hand. Suddenly, a wine bottle appeared in his hand.

The inside of the embroidered bottle is a turquoise liquor, a bit like vegetable juice or something.

But it's a little clear.

Arka took it, opened the cork that had been encapsulated on it, and poured the contents into the glass in front of him.

The turquoise drink fell into the glass.

Everyone looked at the wine in the glass, and there seemed to be nothing peculiar.

Arka blinked, but didn't see the treasure functioning, and there was no difference when he sniffed it, so he thought about it and picked up the cup and took a sip.

He had drunk it, so the wine in the glass had not changed.

Need magic?

Thinking so, Arka reached out and grabbed the glass, and just as the magic was about to rush over, Arka hurriedly stopped.

Re-analyze the magic power that you are about to pour out, and completely eliminate the magic power from the mixture of various treasures attached to it, and turn it into the purest magic power.

It's a technique that requires a high degree of control over your magic to be able to do so.

Otherwise, his magic power will involuntarily carry the breath of treasure.

This technique belongs to the more difficult category.

The sheer magic of re-stripping and cleaning poured into the glass, and the glass literally sucked the magic. It seems to have inspired the effect.

The wine in the glass changed.

It's still green, but there's a faint forest-like fragrance inside.

The main focus of this drink is the feeling of returning to nature, and the fragrance of this drink wafts out and lingers around the nostrils.

Take a sharp breath as if you have returned to nature.

On top of that, the drink has a faint cyan glow.

"Changed? So this treasure has an effect on its own? Xia Daiti asked, looking at the cup.

Arka nodded: "That's right, that's it." ”

"It's a great smell." Juan Lu couldn't help but say.

"I'll taste it first." Arka smiled and picked up the cup and took a sip.

The fragrant smell of wine erupts in the mouth, like the natural smell of spring in the forest pouring into the mouth and burrowing into the heart.

It was as if the whole body was inexplicably exuding vitality.

"Hoo ......"

Exhaling, Arka opened his eyes.

In addition to enhancing the deliciousness of the drink, Arka can also feel that the drink has improved his physical fitness.

It seems to be a permanent improvement, but it's very, very subtle.

At the same time, it seems to wash away the fatigue on his body and rejuvenate his body.

"Taste it too."

As he spoke, Arka handed over the wine glass, and everyone drank the wine in one gulp, and they all experienced the feeling.

"The taste and effect seem to be related to the quality of the wine inside, so let's change the wine." Juan Lu, who drank it last, said, and then changed to a new wine.

It is a strong liquor.

Arka nodded, picked up the spirit, and poured it in, which was very pure, transparent and watery.

When the spirit was poured in, the magic poured in again, and the very strong aroma of the wine wafted out, and there was no other taste, just pure strong wine.

Arka took a slight sip, and the flame-like drink poured into his throat, as if it was about to ignite.

It's like taking a sip of lava pouring into your lungs.

Alka's skin is visibly reddened.

A breath of heat even bubbled out of his epidermis, and Arka opened his eyes.

"It's hot."

Raising his right hand, he clenched his fist hard and could see the blood vessels burst out one by one.

"In addition to improving the weak strength, it also strengthens the strength more, which should be temporary. And it can withstand the cold winter. ”

Then the wine glass was interesting, and everyone began to experiment one by one. See what different wines can do in the glass.

You must know that Juan Lu has all kinds of wine on him, and there are also many kinds of wine stored on their ship.

In the end, even Mattresa took out her own medicinal wine, which can also be called a potion.

However, it is made by sake brewing, so it should be considered a bar.
