Chapter 65: The Treasure of the Second Brave

In the afternoon.

The weather was clear and the sun was very red, like a glowing tomato.

Five wagons, laden with magical artifacts, stopped at the gates of Cavendish Manor.

Harry was directing the officers to move things.

Now there is only one Frey left in Cavendish Manor, but there are no fewer people in the manor.

The nobles sent their right-hand men to help, and almost all of the most elite police officers in Arknayz gathered in the manor, keeping an eye on the servants for fear that some outlaws would infiltrate and do evil to the Earl.

This is not the same as in the past, and anyone with a discerning eye knows who the most powerful nobleman in the city is.

The Marquis of Wyndham was formally arrested by the prosecutor's office at noon today.

The officials who came to arrest people were holding the arrest warrants issued by the royal capital.

The marquis's mercenary tried to stop him, but was struck by the tower-like guard next to the prince with a weapon wrapped in black cloth, and his brains splashed ten meters away on the spot.

Even the marquis's family members and subordinates were arrested for most of the reason for coordinated investigation.

At this time, Albert was already on his way to the royal capital. The army escorted, the layers were handed over, and His Majesty spoke directly, if the marquis died on the road, all the officials who arranged this matter would have to lose their heads.

His protection of Amamiya Xi has reached an unbelievable level.

His Majesty the King personally called the frightened little Count at noon, and kept reassuring him, shushing the cold and asking for warmth, and his concern was overflowing.

Although there is no direct evidence that the assassination was planned by the Marquis, he is certainly inseparable from Cole, the gangster of that day.

So, the king arranged an errand for Amamiya Xi that seemed troublesome at first glance:

"Albert has to cooperate with the investigation of the Royal Prosecutor's Office, and it is almost the New Year, so many things in the territory must not be taken into account. That's not okay, then Xiaoxi, you go and help him take care of it. ”

The news was sent to the city hall in Acneiz, which was stamped by the royal palace.

Now, it's blowing up.

The king's meaning is obvious, he will definitely not spare Albert, and there is a high probability that he will take off the title and continue it to the non-direct blood relatives of his nephews.

But will not kill him.

The Ron Kingdom has been founded for more than a thousand years, and there has never been a precedent for killing nobles, after all, Amamiya Xi is not dead, and he is not even injured.

But compensating Yugong Xi is definitely inevitable, whether it is for the sake of Dongguo's face or for the wooing of Yugong Xi himself, the attitude must be in place.

The meaning of this executive order is clear:

The marquis lives alone, his house is quite big, you are welcome to go to his house to play, and go to sleep directly when you are tired of playing, no problem!

Take it, take it all, you can take it, you can take it, thank you Brother Albert.

This kind of thing has never happened in the history of the kingdom, and it is equivalent to assigning the marquis's territory directly to Amamiya.

I didn't say how much, how to manage, and how long, which is even more exaggerated than directly adding fiefdoms.

The Ron nobles have no right to rule over their fiefdoms, and can only obtain the economic effects of the land.

Wyndhammar's fief is in Queens, the inner city of Acnez, although the land is not large, but it can be called the center of the city center, and the total economic volume of all the fiefs of the Ron nobles can definitely rank in the top five, and now it is the rain palace sunset.

The officials of Arknaiz also tasted it.

This is to give Cavendish a promotion.

Although Amamiya Xi's cowherd father does not do his job every day, his contribution to Ron's diplomatic career is real.

Over the years, relying on trade with the eastern country, the factories in Ron's inland have hardly stopped working, and they have made a lot of money.

If Amamiya Xi can really bring the right to sell arms to Ron, then Ron can sit firmly in the position of the second power in the Southern Continent.

It is reasonable for Amamiya to be promoted to a knighthood.

Although military merit is required to serve the public for the promotion of the title, but now that the Demon King has come to the world, the Church of Light predicts that the Demon King Army should come after the New Year, and it will not be easy to let Yugong Xi hang up a name and mix up some military merits?

The Count rises to the rank of Marquis, and this is what the officials of the City Hall are most concerned about.

Although the marquis and the earl are only one order apart, they are very different in terms of rights.

In the final analysis, it is still a fiefdom gap.

Only marquis and duke could have a city as a fief.

Cavendish had a fief larger than Wyndham's, but it was located on the outskirts of Arknais, full of fields, and a year's cultivation of land was not as much as Wyndham's half-yearly rent.

Not to mention the right to appoint officials.

Although the nobility had no jurisdiction over the fiefdom, they could directly appoint a certain percentage of new government employees.

Ron's city is governed by the City Hall, and if you want to enter the City Hall, you can only pass a government interview, except for the direct appointment of the king.

Commonly known as Kaogong.

Candidates must meet certain conditions, such as academic qualifications, household registration, or special experience, etc., and only those who meet these conditions can take the exam, and finally be selected for admission. However, the nobles who rule the territory can directly recommend some qualified candidates to enter without examination.

Although this number of nominations was constantly reduced during the millennia struggle for power between kings and nobles, to this day, one or two of the ten newly recruited clerks in various branches of government have been nominated by the marquis or duke.

Although it looks small, year after year, the nobles can gradually take over the personnel appointment and dismissal power of the local city hall and form a substantial control.

It was not until 300 years ago that the rule that "mayors must be appointed and dismissed by the king" was added to the constitution, and the town halls of the fiefdoms returned to the control of the king.

But at that time, in order to compensate the unhappy nobles, the king gave some new rights, that is, to allow the nobles to participate in the official evaluation.

It's terrible.

Although the opinions of the local nobles are not the primary reference condition for the promotion and assessment of officials, if he sees that you are unhappy and writes small essays every day, then he will basically say goodbye to promotion in this life.

Taken together, these two items led to a situation in which the great nobles in the city's fiefdom were divided against the mayor.

The officials basically adhere to the principle that no one should be offended, but fortunately, there are only five marquis and two dukes in the Ron Kingdom, and there are not many cities with such a situation.

As for the other counts, barons, and viscounts, at most, they will toss the mayor or village head, and will not affect the city.

But if Cavendish is a liter, it will have an impact.

Cavendish's fief was next to Aknez, and according to custom, the posthumous feud must have been extended to the original land area, and this expansion was extended to Akneid.

Even if it's not in the inner city, the outer city can still interfere with the municipal government!

Coupled with Amamiya Xi's status in the king's mind, I am afraid that even the mayor will not be able to suppress her in the future, and the officials of Arknaiz will have to eat with her face in a hundred years.

So, naturally, Cavendish Manor was used by the heads of the town hall to brush up on the results.

Eh, when I came to eat last night, I didn't think the six-meter-wide basalt main road in Houhai Hills was not enough. I can't say where it's not enough, so let's renovate it first.

The old basalt is dismantled and the new one is paved, regardless of whether there is a car to run or not, first repair it according to the width of ten meters!

The infrastructure in the outer city has also stopped, and the infrastructure at the earl's door has been repaired, and it is very reasonable for her family to support a garden landscape, right?

Hey, you rich people really don't pay attention to it, what age are you, and you are still using traditional magic circuits to play a fully automatic magic circle! The Earl's house must be heated around the clock!

The workers have gone so much, seeing that your hall is in tatters, and they have helped you repair it, and the workers are willing to work overtime.

So, as soon as the project was carried out, the earl was happy, the town hall was also happy, and the GDP of Acnez also went up, and the city became more prosperous!

Of course, it's not yet possible.

The workers who came to survey have already come to the door, and it is expected that the construction will start after the New Year.

Peter took the liner and chatted with Frey, who had come to greet them at the gate of the manor.

"On the way back, I met a lot of people from other countries, which was quite a novelty."

"After all, it's almost the New Year."

Frey looked out at the sea in the distance and said with a smile: "At this time, there are always many tourists who come to hunt for treasures. ”

"Treasure hunting?"

"It's the treasure left behind by the second brave."

Frey pointed to the sea in the distance.

"Before he died, he hid the holy sword that slew the demon king in the sea near Aknez and left a treasure map."

"Something?!"

Peter was shocked, the fellow still has a dead word for his brother?

"That famous holy sword, the second brave named 'Wing Exga Libang', it is said that even the Hengduan Mountains can be split under a single sword."

"Indeed, the Holy Grail is also very good."

"In addition to the holy sword, there is also a large amount of treasure saved by the second brave man to be buried together, and according to his wife, the value of the treasure can even buy a country...."

Peter pondered for a moment, then asked:

"Isn't the second brave a man from more than a thousand years ago? Since there is a treasure map, the treasure must have been found. ”

Frey shook his head.

"No, otherwise how could so many people come to Aknez to hunt for treasure."

"It is said that the location where the treasure is hidden is only opened three days before the New Year every year, and it is outdated. But for more than a thousand years, almost all the treasure sites marked on the treasure map have been dug up, and there is even a legendary magician who used a great spell to pour the sea water, exposing the entire seabed, and finding no treasure..."

"A Cavendish four hundred years ago also tried to go to sea to find it, but of course it was to no avail. I think the treasure should have been taken..... The tourism hall of Akneiz took advantage of this legend, and every year before the Chinese New Year, it engaged in tourism, pulling people down to the sea to fish for treasures, saying that those who are destined to get it, and if they get it, they will draw an extra shot in case they are hit, and other deceptive gambling, after all, it is a legend of the brave, and there are still many tourists who come here every year. ”

Lin listened to it and snorted disdainfully.

"The second brave man is a liar, he has not hidden any treasure at all. In the voyage records of the ships in Dawn Harbor a year before he released the treasure information, there were no ships passing through that area...."

Frey asked interestingly, "This is the first time I've heard of it, have you ever studied Ron history?" ”

"Salem College is really good at history."

"Are you a student in Salem?"

The lining nodded proudly.

Salem is a benchmark aristocratic education school in the whole continent, and it's quite bluffing to say it.

Frey smiled and asked Peter, "This girl is your sister?" ”

Peter nodded.

"I'll bother you about getting Ron's identity for her."

"What's the trouble with this, I told Sergeant Damian, who is in charge of household registration verification, about this last night, he sent a staff member early this morning, and has been waiting in the reception room, waiting to take a photo and sign his name to get his ID card."

The identity and household registration management in this world is far less strict than that of Peter's hometown, just register, and for people of Amamiyaxi's status, it's just a matter of saying hello.

Frey looked at the tightly wrapped lining, and vaguely guessed in his heart that this girl's background might not be so simple.

But I didn't feel anything, even if it was a murderer, Cavendish could shelter him.

If you look at the guy Wyndham just captured, his family is Arkham of Arknais.

"Oh, little girl, you don't have to dress so tightly with us, just live in peace. At least during the three months that Mr. Peter was here, no one would come to you to trouble. ”

The large trench coat she was wearing was too short, and the back hem was completely dragged to the ground, stained with a lot of snow.

"Got my coat dirty..... Old Frey, do you know a better tailor, call over and make some sets of clothes for this girl. ”

"Clothes?" Frey thought for a moment, "Your outfit was made by a famous designer in Houhai Hills, and I will call him to come and measure your sister in the evening." ”

"Done."

Frey bent down slightly, and said kindly to the liner, "You can take this coat to the house and give it to a maid, and they will clean it for you." Then ask them to get you a jacket that fits well, there are a lot of clothes that the old countess didn't wear, you can pick one as you like, how about it? ”

The lining nodded obediently, revealing a rather ladylike side.

She bowed gracefully, even if she was wearing a mask and scarf, the graceful temperament of the duke's daughter was still fully revealed.

"Thank you, old sir."

Peter was shocked, who are you?

Then Frey called a servant and walked to the mansion with a lining.

"Oh, your sister's origins don't seem simple....." Frey smiled kindly, "how old is she?" Twelve? ”

"It's just that he's short, and he's ..... when he's an adult Adult ......"

Peter suddenly remembered something.

"Old Frey, if I want to order a cake, can someone bring it over today?"

"Cake? What do you mean? ”

"Bigger, cream cakes, round, candlesticks."

Frey was stunned.

"Is it the kind of cake they invented?"

"Uh... I think it should be? ”

"What do you want now? Are you sure? ”

Peter didn't understand why he was reacting so strangely.

"Certainty is certainty..... Isn't that possible? ”

"Are you eating or..."

Frey couldn't help but make sure again, after all, it was cake.

"For eating, of course."

"That'...... Okay, I'll arrange it for you, and it should be ready to be delivered by eight o'clock tonight. ”

"Thank you, I'll pay you how much money." Peter thought for a moment, "Let's get some more candles." ”

"Heh, the cakes must have candles."

Frey looks weird, this guy has such a weird eating hobby.

It wasn't really easy to order that day, but one of the guests at the banquet last night was a cake maker who could ask him for help.

Peter saw that everything was okay and ran to help Harry.

This guy's magic workshop is a lot of mess, but it's mostly related to defensive magic research.

Harry is actually very rich, the Philip Empire has a very high subsidy for the students of Hogwarts Dragon House, plus his parents are also magicians, old capitalist children, no wonder he gave five hundred gold coins to go out without blinking.

His magic workshop was originally built in an apartment in the outer city, and he rented an entire city building to do research.

The fat man tortured Cole right there.

But since he was going to stay with Amamiya Xi for the next three months, he naturally moved the workshop to the manor, and it happened that there was a huge basement in the manor that could be used as a venue.

Rock bream, earth crystals, iron ore, bitter insects, horned rhinoceros bones, and the fine scales of armored birds......

It was all hard stuff at first glance, and it took Peter three hours just to move out of the old workshop.

"You'd better study a little bit of other magic, Brother Potter....."

Harry smiled proudly, he had taken it as a compliment.

Peter looked at the materials stacked in the doorway, and suddenly found a statue of a woman lying horizontally in the corner.

"Eh, did I move this thing out of your workshop?"

The woman on the statue is extremely beautiful, with a very exaggerated figure, and feather-like scales on her arms.

"Ah, this one, no." Harry glanced at it, "This is a souvenir that the prince snatched from Albert's house last night, the statue of the second brave little wife Selena, the silver dragon, is said to have been carved by the brave man himself, and it is worth about 10,000 gold coins." ”

"Silver Dragon ......"

Peter looked around.

This figure, this appearance, fellow, you really damn it!!

It's okay, I'll take a few more looks from all angles and mentally take you off.

Just as Peter glanced at the bottom of his skirt.

Suddenly, he saw a few lines of words at the base of the stele that were blocked by dirt.

He hurriedly swept the dirt away.

Subsequently, the pupils shook dramatically.

That's a line of Chinese.

[If there are still people in the future who enter this world and see the information on this statue]

[First of all, this is my wife, not your wife]

[I left the Holy Sword and the last silver dragon egg in this city, and the location is recorded on the treasure map that has been made public. For details on how to use the treasure map, please refer to "Ready Player One"]

[The treasure location is forbidden by my wife, and you can only enter it during the last three days of the year at the end of each year, so please pay attention to the time]

[The silver dragon egg is my wife's sibling, please be kind. After the silver dragon becomes an adult, his combat power is close to that of the demon king, you can refer to the white dragon Heath in the penultimate level of the game]

[Finally, if you've seen it, please burn me the ending of the comic book of "Attack on Titan" in the form of a text description, I haven't seen it yet, and I'm only thinking about it in my hometown.] Mr. Isayama must have created a great and immortal ending! 】

[Link – April 28, 237]

Peter turned his head to look at Harry.

"What's wrong?" Harry noticed his dumbfounded look.

"Brother, on the other side of the sea, it's a relative....."

“?”

Meanwhile.

Inside a toilet in the Cavendish mansion.

The lining who has learned the bridal course originally wanted to show off her female power, and when she washed her coat with her own hands so that he could praise it-

She actually pulled out a heavy chestnut flower smell from the inside pocket of her coat.....What is this?"

It feels quite silky to the touch.

Expand and take a look.

The lining brain is down.

This is a very high-quality crotch black silk.

It's still reminiscent of JK's classic style.

Perverted Peter shook the female imp for a hundred years.

This, this, this.......

Are you hinting at me?!
