1165. Professional Bandit

For a remnant of feudal forces like Hayes, who is equivalent to a powerful landlord, there is no psychological burden for anyone to rob him, not to mention that this person should have been jailed for what he did before.

When Luther was reading, he learned that the wealth accumulated by aristocratic tyrants could often be astonishing.

In order to protect their wealth from being robbed, they not only spend a lot of money to protect their own safety, but also build huge defensive buildings and underground palaces to hide themselves and their wealth.

At Hayes's manor, Luther had already seen the first two, and what Luther was about to witness now was, in the true sense, the underground palace.

Darkrai and other mentally powerful elves searched for a long time before vaguely discovering something was wrong.

They had been unable to find any entrance to the basement until they left the house and searched in the garden behind the castle, when they discovered a place that gave them subtly different feedback.

Without even thinking about it, Darkrai waved his hand and sent out an evil wave, blowing up the flowers on the flower bed.

"How dare you deceive me!"

Darkrai roared angrily and stretched his hands in the air, as if he was pushing something hard.

Luther and others who came after hearing the sound only saw the ground under the flower bed slowly cracking to both sides, and warm yellow light shined from below.

Luther had already damaged all the power facilities along the way when he came. The only possibility is that there are engines here to deal with sudden power outages, as well as electric elves responsible for power supply!

On the exposed steps, the leading elf was a giant monster. The elf, who looked like a combination of a big-headed doll and an alien, saw that he was exposed and hurriedly called on other super-powered elves behind him to attack together.

This was seeking death. In anger, Darkrai raised his hand, and the dark hole fell like raindrops, and every super-power elf guarding the basement was shrouded in it.

"Being deceived, what do you mean?"

Luther also heard Darkrai's roar just now, and now he waited until all the guard elves fell before he had the time to ask.

After Darkrai's explanation, Luther roughly understood why he was angry.

Because elves with strong spiritual power can use their own power to sense their surroundings, in turbulent times, many people's wealth will be wiped out because of these elves.

Therefore, a nobleman like Hayes would raise a group of super-powered elves dedicated to guarding his underground wealth.

They know that they are weaker than the elves with strong mental power, but they also have mental power, and they can build an illusory underground structure when Darkrai releases his mental power to search the surroundings, allowing Darkrai to

Capture.

By relying on this method, neither Darkrai nor Gardevoir could discover the secret.

The reason why Darkrai was able to discover it was that after he left, the mental radiation was still there, and he found that the information just recovered was a bit blurry and inconsistent with the surrounding terrain.

Darkrai and Gengar took the lead, while Luther and others slowly walked down the steps.

The world has a wrong understanding of ghost elves. They always think that they can pass through any wall, but this is not the case. As long as the wall is slightly thicker or there is some energy interference, ghost elves cannot pass through the wall.

You'll just hit it head on.

The underground palace in Hayes is about two meters above the ground. If Gengar wants to get down, he can only learn to dig holes.

"The information given by Roz's traitor is a bit exaggerated." Luther looked at everything in front of him and shook his head.

Although the basement in Lodz is large and has many rooms, it is far from the level of a palace.

But another piece of news from this traitor was actually true to its name.

"There are countless rare treasures and valuable goods everywhere."

After ordering the electric elves in the basement to continue providing lighting, Luther and others were almost blinded.

It's not because of the flash spell, but because of the light reflected from the various metal coins and various items randomly piled up in the basement.

This construction only focuses on area and size, not on decoration. The basement is sparkling with gold. Daigo, Karuna and Sirona who are connecting with Luther are all people who have seen the world. However, in front of Hayes's treasure trove

Just jaw-dropping.

A'Du, who never had much interest in money, stepped in front of Dai Wu's camera and took a look, and was dumbfounded.

"Did Hayes start out as a pirate?"

It's no wonder A'Du asked this. The variety of items stored in Hayes's basement is truly astonishing with so many types and different styles.

But considering that he is a smuggler, it makes no difference to call him a pirate.

Looking up, there are very few duplicate items in the main hall of the basement.

The treatment of various colored gemstones is slightly better, and there are special cabinets for storage.

The treatment of coins is very low, and they can only be thrown casually on the ground and piled into small piles.

"Luther, please lower your camera." Dawu moved his face closer to the camera and quickly directed Luther.

"Lower?"

"Yes, lower it a little lower. Do you see the light golden currency with a wreath on the person's head? Pick it up."

Luther followed Dawu's request, twirled the dust on it, took a breath, and wiped it.

"This seems to be the currency of the Hoenn region."

Luther had no interest in these currencies. He came here to rob, and it was impossible to move away these numerous and heavy things.

The top priority now should be to find the most valuable and rare treasures, move them away, and take them back to the island to make them your own.

However, Daiwu's next words shocked Luther.

"This currency is the currency that was circulated in several small countries in the northern coastal areas of Fengyuan three thousand years ago. Judging from the corroded state of the coin in your hand... it must have been soaked underwater for at least a few hundred years."

"Put your foot on that one now and pick it up."

"This one is even more interesting. It is a silver shuttle used by several city-states in the coastal areas 700 years ago. It is shaped like a savage bass."

Luther complained: "Savage bass are elves living in freshwater areas."

"Read more. A small number of wild bass can live in seawater, and many live in river estuaries all year round."

Luther shouldn't have asked this question...

"Something's wrong. Most of the currencies in front of you are not from the same region. The currency values ​​are scattered. They exist in various periods and regions. Some of the currencies here have traces of seawater corrosion, and some do not..."

Under Daigo's command, Luther looked at other nearby currencies and finally came to a surprising conclusion.

"The ancestors of the Hayes family should be pirates."

A'Du suddenly shouted outside the camera: "I knew it!"

Kalunai interrupted Daigo and reminded: "If you want to talk about academic things, let's wait for another day. Luther doesn't have much time. He has to rush to a meeting later, so give me serious help!"

On the other side, Shijana has already screened out an object that is suspected to be a fossil fragment with the help of Karunai, and is using the characteristics of Gengar's body to stuff it into his stomach.

Gengar is here tonight, and one of his main functions is to act as a porter and store ring.

On Luther's side, Dawu also got on the right track. He no longer considered academic issues, but seriously helped Luther estimate the actual value.

"This armor looks old. Is it valuable?"

"The handicrafts produced in Galar three hundred years ago are very fine in workmanship, but they are also imitations of ancient armor and have nothing but age."

"This fist-sized red gem is extremely transparent when exposed to light. It must be worth something, right?"

Dawu glanced at Luther sideways and said earnestly: "Luther, if you want to help Mai buy gems and jewelry in the future, please don't go there yourself, I'm afraid you will be ripped off."

"Is this fake?" Luther was shocked.

"The condition of the video looks fake, but the value is a little bit, it's just historical value. Compared with the size of the Hayes inventory, the price is not worth the effort to move it."

"It either looks good or is a gem of high value. Although the logic is weird, you have to accept this fact."

Daigo's pickiness was full of rigor, but as Luther who was at the scene, he was like an apprentice who was asked to go through the orchard but could only pick one fruit, full of regrets.

If possible, Luther would like to vacate this place, but he can't take away so much.

"Wait a minute. There is a stone cushioning the armor bracket next to the cabinet. Stand it up and let me take a look."

Darkrai removed the armor and straightened the stone.

This large stone, which was gray and had nothing out of the ordinary, was about two meters high and more than half a meter wide. It looked like a decorative object, but Dawu looked at it extremely seriously.

"Bring this thing back to me."

"There is a high probability that there are good things inside."

Dawu actually has no confidence in what he said. After all, the conclusions drawn under the video conditions may be biased.

However, Luther waved his hand and motioned for Gardevoir to be transported outside and tied to Adu's Kuailong first.

Kuailong Express will send the most valuable items back to Qidao at night, and then return by teleportation to continue transporting them.

Dawu wanted to explain that the probability that there is jade or rough gemstones here is not high. After all, it is common for professionals to make mistakes when playing this game.

Luther thought for a while and called Mai.

Mai was also watching. When she heard Luther calling her, she immediately answered.

"Do you think this stone is worth taking?"

Mai held her chin, looked at it carefully for a while, and nodded.

"Then take it!"

Luther didn't need to listen to excuses. If there was anyone on the entire island who had absolutely strong luck, it was Mai.

"Master!"

As soon as Gardevoir moved the boulder out, Acerola's shouts rang out from a room in the basement.

Luther thought something had happened to Acerola and ran over in a hurry.

Entering the room, she saw Arcelora stretching out her hand and pointing at an object lying on a red velvet cloth and protected by a glass cover not far away.

When illuminated by light, it reflects a sea-blue light, and the entire room seems to be immersed in sea water for an instant. The sea-blue light and shadow on the wall sway from time to time, like ripples on the sea.

"Dawu...here, do you want to take a break?" Luther asked.
