And that Hoffman was able to tell this incredible news showed that the exploration team might have really discovered something.
A ray of uncontrollable excitement flashed in Hoffman's eyes, and he nodded and said: "Yes, the exploration team went deep into Rockdammer, followed the clues to search for nearly half a year, and even lost contact with us for a time, and finally finally found it in the Gargas Grand Canyon
, made a surprising discovery.”
To be honest, if Lin Li didn't know that Hoffman would not lie to him, it would be hard for Lin Li to believe that this was becoming more and more ridiculous. The environment in Locke Fanmo was already quite bad in Anriel Continent.
And the environment of the Gargas Grand Canyon that Hoffman mentioned is even worse. If the high elves are disgusted with the environment of Locke Fanmo, then it can be said that they deeply hate the environment of Gargas.
Already.
Gargas means insurmountable in the language of the dwarves, and the Gargas Grand Canyon is indeed an almost insurmountable chasm. The entire Grand Canyon stretches for thousands of miles, and the cliffs on both sides are like knives and axes.
, it is covered with thick ice that has existed for countless thousands of years. The bottom of the canyon is bottomless, and the darkness is daunting. You can only hear the cold wind passing through and making a shrill wail, as if it goes straight to the terrifying place.
of endless abyss.
The Gargas Grand Canyon divides the Dwarf Kingdom and the Qingfeng Plain into two different worlds, with almost no possibility of crossing over. It is precisely because of the existence of this natural chasm that almost all trade between the Qingfeng Plain and the Dwarf Kingdom has
You have to borrow the territory of the Kingdom of Leiding. Perhaps this is one of the reasons why many forces in the Qingfeng Plain have always refused to integrate into the Kingdom of France. After all, if they truly integrate into the Kingdom of France, the Kingdom of Leiding will inevitably
Adding many obstacles to this trade route.
"About two months ago, the exploration team that went to Rockdammer returned here. Only two people from the fifty-person exploration team came back. But their sacrifice was not in vain. From what they brought back, we found that
We have discovered an absolutely astonishing secret. In the Grand Canyon of Gargas, not only are there likely to be ruins of high elves, but the scale is probably far greater than anything we have discovered before." Hoffman's little eyes sparkled.
Light, uncontrollable excitement appeared on his face.
For a seemingly absurd clue, an exploration team of fifty people was sent out, which shows that the Shining Gold Chamber of Commerce is indeed as enthusiastic about the exploration of ruins as before. And those who can join the exploration team are probably all those who are interested in the Shining Gold Chamber of Commerce.
The most loyal person, given Hoffman's status, even ordinary people would not go out of their way to mention such a sentence.
At this time, seeing Hoffman's uncontrollable excitement, Lin Li's interest couldn't help but be piqued, and he asked: "I wonder if it is appropriate to talk about the amazing discovery that Master Hoffman mentioned here?"
explain."
"Haha, Master Fei Lei is overthinking. Since I want to invite you to cooperate, I naturally have to come up with something that can make you believe." After saying that, Hoffman took out some things and placed them one by one between the two of them.
on the table.
They were some stone flakes and a few pieces of metal ornaments. They didn't look too surprising. However, when Lin Li took a closer look, he saw that some of the stone flakes had some patterns carved on them, and some had inscriptions on them.
The words of the high elves. And the few pieces of metal jewelry fragments also exude a faint magic wave, especially the patterns on them, which are more like part of some high-level magic pattern.
Lin Li had no research on archeology, but he could see at this time that these inconspicuous things undoubtedly belonged to high elves. Especially the magic patterns on the metal fragments, although it is not that the current inscription master could draw them.
If you want to draw it on a small ornament, I am afraid that only the top jewelry masters can do it. However, in Qingfeng Plain today, jewelry masters are almost extinct. Even high-end jewelry craftsmen are famous enough in the mainland, at least there are many.
I have never heard of any jewelry master, let alone a top jewelry master.
"These things do seem to belong to the high elves. However, I don't know how you judge the scale of the ruins." Lin Li believed that Hoffman would not deceive him with other things, so these few high elves'
This should be able to prove that there are indeed traces of high elves' activities in the Gargas Grand Canyon. However, Lin Li cannot care about the scale of the ruins. After all, there is no place like the Gargas Grand Canyon.
Enough motivation, it's really not worth the trip.
Lin Li looked at it from a technical point of view, while Hoffman relied on his understanding of history and his years of experience in excavation of high elf ruins. After taking out those few things, Hoffman took out another
There was a drawing with the pattern of a delicate and complicated ornament on it. Then he placed several fragments on the table at the corresponding positions of the pattern one by one. Then he explained to Lin Li: "Master Fei Lei, please look at this."
The drawing of this piece of jewelry was found in a High Elf ruins we once excavated. The piece of jewelry drawn above is said to be specially made for the royal family of High Elf. Look at these fragments, do you see anything?
?”
Lin Li stepped forward curiously, took a closer look at the drawing and the metal fragments on the drawing, and was suddenly surprised. The drawing on the drawing must be larger than the real thing, but only based on the appearance of a few metal fragments
Lin Li could also accurately judge the magic pattern. These metal fragments should indeed be the fragments of the ornaments in the pattern.
As for whether it is exclusive to the high elves royal family, Lin Li made some judgments in his mind after seeing the structure of the entire magic pattern on the pattern. This magic pattern is a master-level holy blessing magic pattern. One of its functions is to create a field that breaks invisibility.
, unless you are a saint-level assassin, you will inevitably have nothing to hide when you step into the domain. Another function is to provide the user with strong protection. Even if the opponent's attack power exceeds the endurance limit of the magic pattern, it can also replace it.
The user can withstand an almost unlimited number of attacks.
However, what really attracts the high elves is not these two already quite heaven-defying functions. It is that when the Holy Blessing Demon Pattern is activated, the user will be enveloped in colorful light, emitting a divine light as if a god has descended into the world.
Inviolable momentum. And because of this, in the dynasty of the high elves, only the royal family can use the holy blessing magic pattern. Even the great lord Osric, who is known as the first person under the queen, is not qualified to use it.
Use Holy Blessing Magic Pattern anywhere.
Therefore, based on the Holy Blessing Demonic Patterns on the metal fragments, it can be basically determined that the High Elf ruins where the Flash Gold Merchant Guild was located probably belong to a High Elf royal family. Lin Li came to the world of Anriel
In the past few years, there have been the Sky City, the Osric Tomb, and the Underground Palace. It can be said that each of the treasures found is quite important, and I really don't like ordinary ruins.
However, the relics of the high elven royal family are remarkable. They are nobles among the high elven nobles. Even if they are not famous in history, as a royal family, they will have huge wealth far superior to other high elven nobles.
What's more, unlike humans, the blood of the high elves royal family has destined them to be no ordinary people. Having higher talents and more resources makes them far more advantageous than ordinary nobles in all aspects, and
The relics they left behind are naturally destined to be extraordinary.
Thinking of this, Lin Li couldn't help but feel a little excited. He looked at the drawings and metal fragments on the table and said, "If it is really the relic of the high elf royal family, it will be an unprecedented discovery!"
"Yes, this is exactly what I want to say, but no matter which high elf royal family in history this ruins belongs to, it must be full of dangers, and it is not easy to get it. Because of this, considering that you have
I have explored the City in the Sky and the Tomb of Osric, so I hope to cooperate with you to explore and excavate this ruins." After finishing speaking, Hoffman looked at Lin Li expectantly, waiting for his answer.
If it were an ordinary relic, with the current strength of the Glitter Gold Chamber of Commerce, there would be no need to cooperate and share it with others. But this time it might be the relics of the high elf royal family, which would force Hoffman to be careless. Glitter Gold Chamber of Commerce
The most important thing for starting a business by exploring ruins is to be able to clearly see how important you are and not be overwhelmed by the huge temptation. Although wealth is found in danger, how many people can really seek wealth in a life of almost death?
Maybe once or twice, but lady luck always takes a nap, and then it will really be all in vain.
Lin Li leaned back in his chair, looked away from the table, and tapped his fingers lightly on the armrest. After all, it was a relic of the high elf royal family. It was impossible for Lin Li not to be tempted, but seeing how far away Gresco predicted it was.
Disaster is not far away, is it worth allocating time and energy for this matter?
After a moment of thinking, Lin Li finally turned his attention to Hoffman, with a smile on his face and said, "Since Master Hoffman has even shared this news with me, what reason do I have to refuse."
Hearing that Lin Li finally agreed, Hoffman couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Master Fei Lei, next, let's talk about the specific details of this cooperation." Although, on this breeze plain, there are
There are quite a few forces that are powerful enough to cooperate with the Glitter Gold Chamber of Commerce, but the only ones that Hoffman can truly trust to cooperate with are Lin Li and his Tower of Dusk.
In this world of the jungle, those who trust others easily will often die badly. As the president of the Glitter Gold Chamber of Commerce, how could Hoffman not know this truth? The relics of the high elf royal family are too tempting, and at the same time they are also
This means that the crisis involved is absolutely beyond imagination, and finding partners who are not strong enough will not be of any use. And if you find partners like the Mithril Alliance, you have to be wary of each other during the exploration process.
But Lin Li was different. Whether he was cooperating with the Marfa family to explore the Sky City, or later exploring the Osric Tomb with the Oranna Magic Guild, Hoffman had learned about it in detail and knew that he was a reliable ally.
.Although during the process of exploring the Sky City, Lin Li clashed with the Dark Blade, resulting in the deaths of legendary assassins Lansdale and Stefan. This matter has been repeatedly mentioned by the enemies of the Twilight Tower. However, Huo Huo
Hoffman knew the inside story, and even more so how Lin Li helped the elf elders and others when they evacuated. Therefore, in Hoffman's eyes, the entire Qingfeng Plain, and even the entire world of Anriel, may not be the same.
There is no more reassuring collaborator than Lin Li.
Now that the two have decided to cooperate on this matter, it is natural that they must first talk about the distribution of interests. A reliable cooperation is based on fair distribution of interests, no matter what kind of friendship the two parties have.
, the issue of benefit distribution must be discussed clearly first.
Because of the importance of the matter, this matter was not left to their respective subordinates to discuss, but was discussed separately by Hoffman and Lin Li. In fact, there were not many things to discuss. One was how much effort both parties invested in this exploration operation.
The other is how to distribute the harvest from exploration. Who doesn’t know what is in that ruins. Naturally, it is impossible to detail every item, not to mention that there may be nothing at all, so I will briefly talk about how.
divided into.
It didn't take long for the two of them to agree on everything. First of all, they agreed on the possible scale of the ruins and the amount of effort each would put into it. The distribution of benefits was set to be equally distributed. Whatever was harvested would be determined by the price.
The person compensates the other party. In this rule of profit distribution, it should be said that Hoffman made a small concession. After all, in the agreement, the forces to be invested by both parties are equivalent, but the Glitter Gold Chamber of Commerce has the clues of the ruins.
The discoverer, if he really cares about everything, even an extra 10% is reasonable.
Of course, in fact, Hoffman's concession does not mean that he really suffered a loss. First of all, in this world of intrigues, it is difficult to find a reassuring collaborator. After all, anything can happen in the ruins, because
It is not uncommon in Anriel's history for team members to be wiped out due to trust issues. In addition, the force Lin Li promised to send was only superficial. Lin Li himself was not an ordinary twenty-fourth level legendary powerhouse.
, not to mention there are unknown trump cards such as Star Fragments, Elemental Dragons, Lord of Nightmares, etc.
After discussing the matter of cooperation, Hoffman put away those things and continued to chat with Lin Li about the situation in Qingfeng Plain. Especially what happened in the small town of Gran that day, Hoffman
I still feel full of emotion when I say it now. I never thought that Ash Warlock, who has lived in seclusion in Gran Town for thousands of years, and the gods of Qingfeng Plain, would actually look at Lin Li and the Tower of Dusk in a different light.
