Chapter five hundred and fifty fifth unlucky cycle
Unlike Rembrandt, who is keen on exploring ancient civilizations, Count Ed is not interested in the relics of prehistoric civilization hidden in the wilderness of the Moissan continent. He is interested in tribes with strong primitive tribal characteristics.
Products of civilization and rare animals in the wilderness that have never been seen before.
In order to support his hobbies, Earl Ed even did not hesitate to purchase properties in the Moissan continent, and he spent half of his time there every year.
I don’t know whether it is because Earl Ed has a strong business talent, or because Earl Ed is very lucky. Almost all of his investments in Moissan Continent are profitable. The only difference is that he makes more and less.
But even so, after many years of accumulation, Count Ed has become one of the few wealthy nobles in the Kingdom of England, and the books on wilderness animals written by Count Ed based on his notes have also become the Kingdom of England, and even
The best-selling book in the world of Velen has gained him a lot of fame.
However, for the people of the primitive tribes of the Moissan continent, Earl Ed is definitely not a good person. In order to obtain a sacred object of the primitive tribe, he even provoked a tribal war by any means, causing tens of thousands of people to be killed.
’s death, the three tribal civilizations became extinct.
Because of his bad behavior, the Mozang Civilization Alliance, headed by the Kingdom of America, later expelled him completely from the Mozang Continent by decree. He never set foot on the Mozang Continent again until his death.
Some people think that the death of Earl Ed was not an accident, but was probably the revenge of those tribes, because among the shamans of the primitive tribes there are some extraordinary people who can control wild beasts, and it is nothing if they control the horse to throw Earl Ed.
Difficulties.
In addition, after Earl Ed's death, his various industries in the Moissanite continent were attacked by various forces. In a short period of time, he changed from a multinational company to a debt-ridden garbage company. Anyone with a little bit of wisdom would be disappointed.
It can be seen that there is something fishy in it.
After reading this text recording the life of Earl Ed, Leo thought that the pyramid metal block should be the triggering holy object, because in all relevant records, there is no final whereabouts of the holy object, as if it were a holy object.
It just disappeared into thin air.
"Dakalan!" Leo recited a standard tribal name in the Mozang continent. The language used in this name is the Gugas language. According to its literal meaning, it means forgetting, and the additional function of the control device.
Wanting to reconcile, this also made Leo more certain that the pyramid metal block should be the sacred object of the Dakalan tribe.
However, even if he knew about this tribe, Leo could not get any useful information from this tribe, because this tribe was the first tribal civilization to perish in that tribal war. The entire tribe was slaughtered except for a few children.
In addition to being captured by other tribes and made into slaves, other adults and elderly people were killed. In the end, at least half of the tens of thousands of people who died in the tribal war were from the Dakalan tribe.
Fortunately, the ruins of the Dakalan tribe are still there, and they have been used by the people of the Kingdom of America. They transformed it into a tourist attraction and incorporated it into the travel manual. Now Leo has such a travel book in his hands.
manual.
Not long ago, Leo asked the housekeeper to collect as many books as possible related to the Moissanite continent. In the end, the housekeeper collected more than a thousand books, more than half of which were travel books, because he wanted to collect them in the shortest possible time.
If you are familiar with the Moissanite continent, this kind of book that combines geography, history, customs, etc. is most suitable.
So after Leo confirmed that the pyramid metal blocks might come from the Dakalan tribe, he immediately found all the books related to Dakalan, including this travel manual, and it was also the least rigorous one.
Travel brochures were the most helpful to Leo.
In this travel brochure, the publishing house hired someone to draw some restored tribal pictures. In those pictures, there are tribal houses, tribal daily necessities, etc. Although the painter's painting skills are not very good, he can draw them.
I faithfully drew what I saw, including some decorative patterns on materials and daily necessities, and many of those patterns were exactly the same as those on the pyramid metal blocks.
After confirming the origin of the pyramid metal block, Leo was not in a hurry to go to the Moissanite Continent. Although he definitely wanted to go to the Moissanite Continent, it was not now, so he also classified this matter as his own.
One of the plans has been temporarily shelved.
Leo spent the next few days very peacefully, getting to know the king and queen every day. After so many days of repeated training, he had mastered the skills of using the king and queen, and was able to perfectly control the power of bullets, so that he would not appear again.
One shot blasts a big hole and penetrates countless obstacles.
As his skill with the king and queen gradually deepened, he also became more fond of the pair of psychic weapons, because the pair of psychic weapons would increase in power as his strength grew, until the pair of weapons could withstand the limit, and
According to Leo's estimation, at least until he reaches the eighth level psyker, he will be able to use these weapons.
Moreover, the example of the King and Queen is not only about penetration and explosion. Leo discovered that through some usage skills, these two weapons not only include the previous psychic effects, but also expand some new effects.
For example, in addition to the explosion, fire, freezing and other effects that the king already possesses, he also has a power similar to neural shock, which can directly attack the target's nervous system through shock without causing fatal damage to the target. This power is used to
It is most suitable for dealing with extraordinary beings whose bodies are strong enough to withstand some external attacks.
As for the Queen's new abilities, they are quite different. In addition to the enhanced effectiveness of penetration and super long-range shooting, the Queen can also attach the user's spirit to the bullet, so that when the bullet is fired, the user uses telekinesis.
It affects the direction of bullet flight to a certain extent, which means that the bullet can be controlled to turn in the air.
However, this kind of effectiveness is really useless for Leo, because the Queen's penetrating bullet alone is enough to penetrate any bunker. He only needs to determine the target through the mental network.
During the period when Leo was familiar with the new weapons, the top management of the Kingdom of England experienced a storm, because the espionage case involved in the theft of items from Earl Ed's warehouse was snowballing. At first
It was only within the Special Bureau, but in just a few days it expanded to various parliaments. In the end, even the National Assembly and the royal family were involved.
At this time, the upper echelons of the Kingdom of England discovered that their interior had been riddled with spies from various countries. The royal family, the Duke of Buckingham, the aristocracy and Congress quickly reached a consensus and arrested and eliminated all spies except for a few.
Except for some who received the news and fled, most of the remaining spies and traitors were arrested. Among those arrested were four members of the royal family, seven members of Congress, dozens of members of parliament from various regions, and a large number of people.
Government officials.
Although this great purge caused great damage to the senior leaders of the Kingdom of England and almost shook the pillars of the Kingdom of England, it did not have much impact on the people at the bottom. It only gave them more talk after dinner, and
You can gloat and laugh at the arrested nobles.
For Leo, after this matter expanded to the upper echelons of the entire Kingdom of England, it also had some adverse effects, because after investigation, the old Marquis Roosevelt also leaked some secrets to hostile countries when he was a palace official, so the Marquis Roosevelt family
He was also the subject of arrest.
However, Marquis Roosevelt was very alert and well-informed. He knew the danger was coming early, so before the Kingdom of England formally arrested him, he moved his entire family to the Moissan continent, leaving only a few.
The estates and other industries that cannot be taken away, as well as some unimportant servants.
As for Sir Roland, although no leaks of national secrets or other treasonous acts were found, he left the Kingdom of England with the heir of Marquis Roosevelt due to other matters. This behavior was also regarded as treason by the Kingdom of England. For this reason, the Royal
The college canceled Sir Roland's lifelong degree, and the royal family also stripped him of his noble status.
Now that Sir Roland has left the Kingdom of England, Leo's original plan has naturally come to nothing. What makes Leo even more annoyed is that he was also passively involved in the espionage case. Three batches of people came to the apartment in two days.
People came to inquire and seemed to regard Leo as a potential suspect.
The reason why Leo was involved was because Leo had purchased the Marquis Roosevelt's factory at a very low price. Those investigators saw that the current factory was beginning to improve, was profitable, and had great potential to develop into a...
The large factories completely forgot that these factories were about to close down when Leo took over them. Therefore, they thought that those factories were high-quality industries and should not be sold by the Marquis Roosevelt family at such a low price. There must be some problems among them.
What a hidden secret.
The biggest problem is that the investigators learned from the servants in the Marquis Mansion that Leo had secretly met with Sir Roland, the heir to the Marquis of Roosevelt, during the banquet held before the heir to the Marquis of Roosevelt left. The next day, the Marquis of Roosevelt's
The heir and Sir Roland left the Port of Set.
This made anyone who saw this information involuntarily think that there was something going on between Leo and the Marquis of Roosevelt and Sir Roland, so Leo, who had already escaped from the case of theft of warehouse items, was betrayed by the investigators of the espionage case.
Targeted, if Nelson Matthews and his wife hadn't tried their best to ensure Leo's loyalty, and someone in the royal family had sent a message to keep Leo, a large number of secret police might have rushed to the apartment to arrest Leo.
Faced with this situation, Leo was a little bit dumbfounded. Although it felt like an innocent disaster, if he thought about it carefully, it was not difficult to find that the source of this incident still lay with him. In a way, it was self-inflicted.
When Leo originally thought that the contact with Sir Roland might be severed, the parcel delivered by a newsboy in the morning made Leo feel that the development of things seemed to have taken a turn for the worse, because the parcel was sent by Sir Roland, and there was only one in it.
This notebook records a large number of unknown languages whose words are scrambled. There are also two pieces of paper included in the package. One of the pieces of paper has an address in the Kingdom of America written on it, which should be where Sir Roland currently lives.
place, and another piece of paper has an address of the Port of Sète and a bunch of confusing words written on it.
Leo has visited the entire Port of Set during this time. With the help of the Spiritual Network, he has constructed a complete map of Port of Set in his mind, so after seeing the address, he hardly needs to go through
Any map search can easily find out the location of this address and know the situation inside.
After he determined the address written on the piece of paper, he was a little surprised, because the address turned out to be the National Bank of the Kingdom of England.
"Bank safe?" Leo thought about it carefully and quickly understood the meaning of the confusing string of words.
The Kingdom of England is one of the first countries in the world of Velen to build banks, and through the convenience of its maritime overlord, its banking network has expanded to all parts of the world. Almost every country has the shadow of the National Bank of the Kingdom of England, and it also stores valuables.
It has become an important business of the National Bank.
Leo put the note pointing to the National Bank on the table, reached out to pick up the notebook, and studied it carefully. It was obvious that the things Sir Roland had stored in the National Bank had been regarded by him as asking Leo to translate
In exchange for the language and text in the notes, given Sir Roland's current situation, it is impossible for him to take anything away from the National Bank. It would be better to give these things to others.
Leo was not too curious about what Sir Roland had stored in the National Bank, because judging from the current situation, it was probably impossible for him to take anything from the bank, because Sir Roland's account in the National Bank was definitely
He was being watched, and when he went to get something, the investigators of the espionage case confirmed their previous speculations.
If Leo was just a person, he wouldn't have any worries. He would be fine if he left the Kingdom of England and went to any country directly. But because the Nelsons guaranteed him, if something went wrong with him, it would definitely affect Nelson and his family.
Nightingale, this is what he doesn't want to see, so he will not take away Sir Roland's things in the bank in a short time.
Now, for Leo, the contents in Sir Roland's notebook are more interesting to him. No matter how you look at it, the things in it should be some of the problems that Sir Roland encountered in his research.
Although in order to keep the research content confidential, Sir Roland must have disrupted all the research text and language and fragmented it, but he could not achieve absolute fragmentation and would always rearrange it according to the rules of phrases and sentences. Otherwise,
