"I didn't expect there to be a palace here." Palamedes couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the splendid special building protected by a high wall.
"Palace?" Prince Said smiled lightly: "This is not a palace, it's just a small villa I have in the city."
Palamedes snorted and said nothing. This turned out to be just a small villa, so how gorgeous should Prince Said's palace look like?
"Be careful what you say and do in front of the prince." Rosetta, the gem queen, reminded her in a low voice when she and Palamedes followed Prince Said and his party into the villa.
The big cat nodded as a response. Anyway, he was a vulgar gangster with a background of thieves. He had very little contact with people like the royal family and nobles. The more he talked, the more mistakes he made. He still kept silent and kept all conversations
Just leave it to Rosetta to deal with.
"Next," in the living room, after everyone sat down on the luxurious leather sofa, Prince Said asked: "What are the characteristics of the weapon you are looking for? Can you describe it so that I can
Are your subordinates going to search for it?"
Palamedes didn't want to say anything at first, but waited for Rosetta to say it. It happened that the servants brought the best Earl Gray black tea in a beautiful gold-inlaid white ceramic cup, and the big cat picked up the cup and sipped it.
A sip of tea.
"How should I say it------" Rosetta seemed a little embarrassed, but turned the topic to Paramides: "Palami, how about you describe your own weapons?"
"Uh." A drop of cold sweat broke out on the big cat's forehead. He didn't even plan to speak at first, but now he was "betrayed" by Rosetta. The big cat reluctantly put down the tea cup and said: "That's..."
A long spear."
"Oh." The prince nodded, expecting Palamedes to continue.
"To be more precise, it was a cursed spear that the thief stole from my hotel room last night." The Leopard Warrior continued, with what he thought was the most reasonable guess: "The one on the spear was
The curse is very powerful, and you need to wear special gauntlet equipment to use it. The body of the gun is black, and the head of the gun is slightly shaped like a triangular pyramid, but I suspect that the thief has not unlocked the seal of the gun since he stole it, so the gun
It is probably still wrapped in a sealed cloth or bandage, making it difficult to identify."
"Well, wait." Prince Said seemed to have thought of something: "I seem to have heard of the cursed spear you mentioned somewhere."
"real?"
"Today I also took my men to the black market in Cairo to search for weapons. One of the shopping lists submitted by one of my men seemed to mention a cursed spear... and it was from an unknown seller.
I bought it cheaply for 300,000 Egyptian coins."
The prince suddenly stood up from the sofa: "Please wait a moment, I will go to the housekeeper to confirm the shopping list. Maybe I can help you find your stolen treasures right away."
Palamedes and Rosetta looked at each other and felt relieved: "That would be great!"
"Then, please give me a few minutes." Prince Said was indeed very resolute and left immediately.
"Huh! It really took no effort at all!" Palamedes leaned his back on the sofa and let out a long sigh of relief.
"It may not be the spear you are looking for. Don't be too proud yet." Rosetta took a sip of black tea and added: "Maybe the one purchased by Prince Said's men happened to be another cursed spear.
Where is the spear?"
"Anyway, we still need to take a look to confirm in the end." Palamedes shrugged. But when Rosetta said this, Palamedes couldn't help but feel a little chilled. He may need to break the seal of the spear,
Let’s take a look at the contents inside. If a spear is really opened that is not Gengunir, but is really a cursed spear, wouldn’t Paramedis be tricked?
"It is confirmed that there is such a weapon." Prince Said had already rushed back. As soon as he appeared, he said immediately: "The cursed spear is currently being stored in the underground weapons warehouse of this villa. It will undergo further investigation."
inspection. Since the spear is heavily wrapped in a bandage that seals magic power, we have no way of knowing whether the sealed spear is the weapon you are looking for. Please come with me. You can personally confirm the spear in the weapons warehouse.
Belong."
"Great!" Palamedes and Rosetta stood up together: "Then let's go."
"Follow me." Prince Said turned around and left. The number of bodyguards following him seemed to have increased by two. This is no wonder. After all, the prince was taking Paramedis and the others into a place full of valuable treasures.
No matter how much you trust Palamedes and Rosetta, it is impossible not to increase security measures.
"Your Highness," although he knew he shouldn't ask random questions, but driven by curiosity, Palamedes still wanted to ask: "I want to ask a few questions, is that okay?"
"But it doesn't matter." Prince Said replied straightforwardly.
"Do you and your men often go in and out of Cairo's black market to buy various weapons?" Palamedes slowed down his tone and asked, "What...are you planning to do by hoarding so many weapons?"
This is actually a very sensitive topic, because as a prince, Said is secretly hoarding weapons, possibly because he wants to launch a coup to overthrow the current parliamentary Egyptian government. Considering that the prince can mobilize the huge manpower and material resources and
Financial resources, it is very natural to think this way.
"Hahaha, I know what you are thinking, Mr. Palamedes. But things are not what you think." Prince Said couldn't help but smile and said: "Collecting rare weapons in the world is originally one of my hobbies.
, and most of the weapons in my collection are not suitable for actual combat and cannot be taken to the battlefield. Furthermore, the Egyptian government has great powers, and they have long known that I am hoarding weapons. But the Egyptian government currently absolutely trusts me.
, as long as I don’t go too far, they won’t interfere.”
"Yes, really..." Palamedes didn't know what kind of relationship Prince Said and the Egyptian Parliament were currently in, but he seemed to feel that the two were not hostile. The prince had hoarded so many weapons.
The fact that the Egyptian government remains unmoved is enough to prove something.
"However, your guess is not completely wrong," Prince Said added, "I am hoarding weapons to achieve a certain purpose. ------I plan to use them for [hunting]
Some monster."
"hunting……?"
"Moby Dick." Prince Said said bluntly: "That is a super giant monster living in the Sahara Desert of Africa, a desert monster whale as huge as a mountain. I think you have heard the rumors about this monster."
"
Paramedis frowned. He himself had never met Moby Dick, but his companions, especially the werewolf youth Bedivere, seemed to have countless connections with this desert magic whale Moby Dick.
Due to the evil fate, it appeared again and again, almost killing Bedivere several times.
All I can say is that it is an extremely dangerous monster.
"But...why?" Palamedes then asked: "Moby Dick exists like a natural disaster, and its dangers are also well known. Your Highness, you have a comfortable life to live, why do you prefer it?"
Are you going to provoke such a dangerous opponent?"
He might lose his life. Although Palamedes thought so in his heart, he did not say it out loud.
In the eyes of the big cat, Prince Said is actually a rich and willful kid. He comes from a wealthy family and has huge support behind him. He can do almost anything he wants and has no worries about food and clothing in his life. Prince Said is like this
People should have lived peacefully and prosperously, instead of risking their own lives and hunting for Moby Dick.
But everyone has his own ambitions. Some people have a good life but want to die. What can Paramedes say?
"For the sake of dignity, I will tell you that I hunted Moby Dick to improve the security of the Sahara Desert so that passing ships would no longer be attacked by that monster." Prince Said said: "But in fact I
I’m not going to lie to you, Mr. Palamedes. I hunted Moby Dick for revenge.”
"Revenge?" the big cat couldn't help but ask.
"Please don't pay attention to what Palamedes said, Prince Said." Ms. Rosetta suddenly interjected: "He rarely pays attention to current affairs, and has almost never been in Africa before. He is very familiar with the affairs of African countries.
Nothing is known."
"No, it doesn't matter. I didn't intend to hide it at all." Prince Said replied calmly, telling everything. Although his tone was extremely calm and without fluctuations, the Leopard Man warrior could vaguely hear the calmness.
There are countless turbulent waves hidden in his tone:
"My mother died in an attack by Moby Dick. That was about ten years ago, but I still remember it fresh. I saw with my own eyes that the diplomatic ship my mother was on was attacked by Moby Dick.
Dick attacked and the entire ship sank in the sea of sand. In that huge explosion, in the crimson flames spewed out by Moby Dick, everyone on the ship was killed, including my mother."
"Yes, really..." the big cat hummed in a low voice. This was a bit embarrassing.
"Haha, let's not talk about this kind of thing for now." Prince Said put this unfortunate topic aside. At this time, they had walked through the long underground stairs of the villa and arrived at a steel building with very tight security measures.
In front of the door.
"Welcome to my weapons collection room." The prince took out some kind of magnetic card and swiped it in front of the door. After repeated tests by the fingerprint and pupil recognition system, the thick steel door finally opened.
The light of various treasures in the treasure room immediately poured into the eyes of the leopard man warrior.
