The next afternoon, Heather received four text messages from Izanaby.
[The ancient sword suspected of being ‘Absolute Royal Power’ was unearthed in an unnamed ancient tomb in the Cajin Kingdom three years ago, and was later collected by the famous wealthy man Roda Jindom. 】
[Roda Jindom owns a private museum located in Luomin City. It opens every ten days. The latest opening was six days later and he will be there in person.]
[Rodajindome is one of the donors of the Hunter Association. He has a lot of background. He must negotiate through peaceful means. I have done him a small favor before. Mentioning my name may help. Remember, he is not a good person.
I like to beat around the bush and speak directly when I have something to say.】
[The first message comes from the payment channel of the hunter website, offering a generous reward of 15 million ring nuns.]
15 million? Compared to the comic where Killua spent 20 million to check the game console information, this is not bad. The hunter network is really useful. He can check everything. He must take the exam to be a hunter next year.
certificate!
Heather packed her backpack and paid Izanabi the information fee, then left the sky arena and went straight to the airship airport.
He checked and found that Luo Min City is located at the southern end of the Arima Continent, adjacent to the Ochima Federation, one of the [V5]. Even if you take an airship to get there, it will take three days. Fortunately, he now has 400 million in his card.
Ringney (I bought myself the win against Gryffindor), so travel expenses are not a problem at all.
Three days later, Luo Min City.
The space inside the airship was large and the meals on the airship were varied and delicious. The past three days were not boring at all. But leaving the airport and bathing in the bright sunshine still made Heather stretch her legs.
The scenery of Luo Min City is much better than that of Shan City and Sky Arena. The air is obviously much fresher, and the breeze is mixed with the fragrance of flowers.
Considering that she had just finished eating on the airship, Heather did not go to taste the local delicacies first but instead hailed a taxi and went straight to Rhoda Kingdom's mansion in the city.
After arriving, I discovered that the 'home' of the richest man in Arima Continent is really big, as exaggerated as in a Hollywood movie.
Endless metal fences, large numbers of strong bodyguards in black suits and sunglasses and headsets, hillsides, lawns, woods, rockeries, small lakes, Heather could have sworn she even saw two giraffes!
There was no imaginary classic plot such as the subordinates making things difficult and the butler being contemptuous. Heather just reported Izenabi's name, asked the master for instructions, and then the butler bowed and invited Heather to enter this huge manor.
It took a full 5 minutes of driving to arrive at the magnificent castle. As soon as he entered the hall, Heather noticed a figure standing in the center of the hall.
Different from the imaginary image of a fat boy with a big belly, Rhoda Kingdom is a kind and tidy old man. He wears a low-key but very expensive handmade dress by a master, and a scarf made of the hair of an unknown rare animal is casually wrapped around his neck.
He had a full head of white hair pulled back into a meticulous back, and his face was cleanly shaved, with no trace of stubble visible.
"Welcome, Izenabi's beloved disciple, Mr. Heather."
Rhoda Jindom smiled and took the initiative to reach out and shake Heather's hand.
"Hello, Mr. Roda Kingdom, thank you for taking the time to see me out of your busy schedule."
Due to her parents' good education, Heather is usually very polite to the elderly: "Just call me Heather."
"Hehehe, you don't need to meet anyone else, you can just call me Roda Jindom, that's what your master calls me anyway."
The old man blinked and said in a humorous tone: "Izanabi told me that you are interested in my collection of 'Absolute Royal Power'?"
The two came to the living room next to the hall. After taking their seats, Heather remembered Izanabi's suggestion and said directly: "Yes, this is related to my telekinesis practice. Please let me see this legendary weapon."
The famous sword."
Roda Jindom's smile never diminished: "Psychic people... Izanabi really opened my eyes thirteen years ago. Only then did I realize that the true strength of telepathic people is definitely not those I hired.
It's just half-assed to make up for it, which is why I later donated heavily to the Hunter Association."
"Heather, Izena is kind to me, so you want to see this sword, no problem. However, this 'Absolute Royal Power' is a collection that I like very much, and it is definitely not comparable to other collections. I say this
Can you understand?"
"……clear."
Heather nodded: "Then let me tell you the truth. Before I see the real thing, I don't know how much your collection can help my telekinesis ability, but no matter what, I can make you a promise.
"
Rhoda Jindom's smile became even brighter: "Okay, I like straightforward conversations. It's still early, do you want to go and have a look now?"
"certainly."
Rhoda Kingdom did not take Heather to the museum, but walked along the luxuriously decorated corridor toward the stairs leading to the underground.
"Of course the ones placed in the museum are fakes. I claim to the outside world that they are imitations specially made out of preference. There are so many bandits in this world, and there are also disgusting thieves like the Phantom Troupe. I like the ones I like.
Authentic products should naturally be placed in the safest place, right?”
The spiraling stairs come to the end, and after opening the door, you will see a collection room of about 200 square meters. Every ancient antique with strange shapes is placed in a bulletproof glass cover, and the lights from various angles make the visit
Visitors can enjoy these precious collections at will. The wall directly to the north of this secret room where various collections are placed is empty, with only a famous painting "Girl on the Shore" by Carly Dominic hanging on it.
Seeing Heather raising her head to admire this world-famous painting, Rhoda Kingdom laughed:
"It's a real work. I spent 16 billion ringgit to acquire it."
The old man knocked on the wall below the painting, and then spoke a sentence in a certain national language, a total of 14 syllables. Two beams of light suddenly appeared in the eyes of the girl in the painting, which happened to scan Roda Jindom's pupils.
"You transformed the painting you bought for 16 billion into an anti-theft device?"
Heather, who was admiring the paintings, was speechless: "Wouldn't it be better to get a normal anti-theft device?"
The old man Roda Jindom had a look on his face: "What's the point? The collection is bought for me to use. You see, even a person with strong telekinesis ability like you will be shocked by this. This is money.
strength."
Click, click, click!
The wall trembled for a while, then slowly rotated, and the metal gates opened one after another, revealing the real collection room behind the wall.
The collection here is much smaller, but Heather focused her mental energy on her eyes and found that every piece of collection had mental energy remaining on it. There is no doubt that each piece is a rare treasure.
Rhoda Jindom raised his hand to signal Heather to calm down, then stood outside the collection room, cleared his throat and said inside: "[181]."
Buzz! A sealed box hanging on the wall inside the collection room floated into the air and slowly floated to the storage table at the door of the collection room.
"This is an anti-theft system that I commissioned from a professional hunter in the Hunter Association. Anyone other than me who wants to break into this secret room will have to pay a heavy price."
Roda Jindom raised his hand, indicating that Heather could take the sealed box from the storage table: "That is the ancient object suspected of being the 'Absolute Royal Power'. It is in a very old state. Please handle it with care."
.”
The old man is obviously very confident in this anti-theft system. After all, it is an anti-theft system made by a certain two-star professional hunter in the Hunter Association. Only he and the professional hunter know how this anti-theft system operates. Anyone else who wants to break into it
It's basically impossible to get rid of it, and the anti-theft system will also judge whether Roda Jindom is controlled or bewitched by telekinesis when he shouts the password. Even if there is a super strong person who can force his way in, he will be fine.
Why not just offer something to Rhoda Jindom with both hands?
Heather nodded, walked forward and picked up the sealed box steadily, very lightly.
Click.
After the box is opened, the contents inside come into view.
