Chapter 241 16. Transactions

"Shuangxue. The sycamore tree?"

After hearing Valentina's words, Alagina chewed on this somewhat familiar vocabulary, and finally found the corresponding noun in the myths and legends of the frost phoenix in the northern border.

But any northerner just thinks that the legendary sycamore tree does not really exist, because human beings have gone deep into the snow-capped mountains countless times, but they have never found any clues about the phoenix sycamore tree inside.

"Ah, yes, they are real or at least used to be real."

Valentina, who was sitting in a wheelchair, folded her arms and did not respond. She just glanced at the man in red next to her. The Swali man named Balzac coughed lightly, and then answered Alagina. question, said,
"Ahem. It's like this. According to the existing research, there are few existing books that describe how the glorious phoenix ended. Even today, you people in the north still regard them as immortal gods but The fact is that they were mysterious existences that were active and then finally disappeared, and the relics held by you and my boss are the proof of their real existence, and they were once the weapons of the two sons of the Phoenix."

Alagina looked at Valentina who was sitting in the wheelchair with some feeling, and saw that she gently pushed open the small wooden box in her hands, revealing the half-crescent black weapon inside.

Unlike Alagina's Ice Prince, this weapon is no different even if it is stored in a wooden box, but if you observe carefully, you will find a soft brilliance similar to moonlight flowing over the blade from time to time. The cold air seeping out of the brilliance is no less than that of the Ice Prince, it's just that it's all contained in the weapon so it's hard to detect.

When the [Moon Princess] relic revealed its true face, the tattoos on Alagina's back became hotter and hotter, and an overpowering chill subconsciously radiated, as if demonstrating against the weapon in Valentina's arms .

In contrast, the weapon in Valentina's hand was very gentle, she didn't respond at all, she just lay quietly in the small wooden box, as if she couldn't see the Ice Prince in the distance.

"I've been studying these legends all these years. According to unverified rumors in the northern border, the relationship between the three sons of the phoenix seems to be not good. We were involved in this fierce battle together, so for a while, the atmosphere in the northern border was a bit tense."

"The demise of the phoenix may be related to such a struggle, but this does not explain what role the phoenix king who lives firmly on the plane tree plays in the story of the demise of the phoenix species. It cannot explain why all phoenixes are like It evaporated overnight without leaving any traces, and there is no way to explain where the legendary sycamore tree has gone now."

This man in red from Shivalli seems to be a scholar like Fisher, and he specializes in the history of the Northern Territory. No wonder Fisher felt that he was basically nothing when he was standing next to Phyllis the lion. threaten
In other words, most normal scholars are like this, and Fisher is one of the special ones, both in the field of research and in combat ability.

When Balzac in front of him talked about his field of research, he became more and more excited, and even his speech speed increased significantly.
"Until a few years ago, when I was researching in Saima Snow Mountain, I accidentally discovered a tomb of the Cangbird species under the ice layer. The ancestor of the owner of the tomb was one of the countless Cangbird species who followed the eldest son of the Phoenix, Prince Ice , long after the phoenix and the plane tree disappeared, he and many of his compatriots returned to the vicinity of the snow-capped mountains, where they obtained a clue about the plane tree, and sent their people to search for it as the hope of returning home.”

"Hey, it's recorded in the tomb that before all the phoenixes disappeared, a son of the phoenix sent a scroll from the phoenix tree secretly and sent his loyal subordinates out of the northern continent. That scroll is now placed in the golden box The scroll of true ice, no one knows what is recorded in it, but it is most likely that there are direct clues closely related to the sycamore tree."

"But it is a pity that although the Cangbirds have sent countless people overseas to retrieve this item, they all ended in failure without a doubt, and even paid a painful price for it. As for their clansmen who are now either dead or reduced to vassals. The Cangniao species buried in the Cangniao species' tomb is one of the few survivors in their tribe, and he finally decided to give up looking for this clue, and will It carried it into the grave."

When he said this, Balzac glanced pointedly at Ossie who was standing next to Alagina. When she stretched out her wings just now, he recognized that she was a bird race .

But after hearing Balzac's words, Ossie just blinked her eyes, as if she didn't understand what he was talking about at all. She knew very little about things other than guards, let alone these dusty and snowy places in the north. in the story.

Not getting the expected response, Balzac classified Ossie the bluebird as illiterate like Phyllis the lion in his heart, and he disliked dealing with this kind of people the most, especially when the other party was a demihuman. When planting, it is as difficult to communicate as a barbarian.

He curled his lips and didn't ignore it. Instead, he looked at Alagina mysteriously and said,

"You may not know what kind of race the phoenix species is. It is not without reason that they are regarded as gods by the creatures in the north. They can see through the fate of the future and control the fate of the present and the future. Anyone who covets the plane tree will be severely punished, even the loyal servants of these Phoenix Sons."

"Our boss wants to find the legendary sycamore tree for a special purpose, but you have nothing to do with this matter, so I don't want you to be involved in this dispute."

After Balzac finished speaking, Valentina, who was sitting in a wheelchair, nodded, crossing her fair fingers, and under the brim of her small hat, her pair of pale silver pupils were very beautiful.

Most people in the northern region have blue and brown pupils, and even people from other places rarely have pupils of this color. I wonder if it is a unique symbol of the Turan family, just like the blond blonde that has been passed down from generation to generation in the Godlin family. Eyes are the same.

"I have no malice towards you, that's why I prepared the relic to control the curse of the scroll in advance. If you agree to return the scroll to me, I am willing to pay you a certain amount of compensation, and the price can be negotiated. Of course, if you have other conditions It can also be said that I will try my best to satisfy.”

Although Valentina is sitting in a wheelchair, nothing can hide the luxurious temperament revealed in the ordinary, as if these things are just drizzle to her.

After careful calculation, it seems that the people around Valentina are all hired except for the steam man Herdor behind him. Counting the journey from the northern border, the relics of the golden box prepared to store the scrolls and the previous Want to bribe Fisher's check, the money is indeed not a small amount.

After hearing Balzac's suspicious words, Pahez subconsciously recalled those weird corpses that continued to grow feathers after death. She held her arm and rubbed it tremblingly. Faith made her suddenly feel that what the Swali said was not false.

Just like believing in the Mother Goddess in the Western Continent, even if you are not a pure believer in the Mother Goddess, you will still feel taboo sometimes when you violate the Mother Goddess’ commandments.

But Fisher just raised his eyebrows after hearing this, and Emhart, who jumped onto his shoulder with only one eye, also made the same movement, and then he leaned against Fisher's ear While complaining to him,

"You're bragging, and you're manipulating your fate. How can the phoenix be so good at controlling its own destiny? Even the saints and Agares, who are best at tampering with the rules, can't do this kind of thing, let alone the phoenix." Well, it would be nice if they could see a little bit of vague prophecy."

Although the words of refutation were very powerful, the opposite was Emhardt's small voice like a mosquito flapping its wings. He was afraid that he would rush the other party's refutation and come over to beat himself, so he also accepted the righteous words. Only dare to say it to Fisher.

In fact, Fisher had already expected that the reason why this weird scroll would cause the curse of growing feathers was not because the phoenix species could control fate and accurately liquidate any gangsters who coveted this scroll, but because it itself carried some kind of weird pollution from the spiritual world.

When these people were swallowed by the curse before, there was a phenomenon similar to the gaze of the spirit world around them, and it also had a certain impact on the souls of their own group, but the specific reason is still unknown. related to the spirit world
However, Emhart once said before that there was a war between the Phoenix species and the Chaos species, and the Chaos species came from the spirit world. Is there any connection between them?

Alagina was a little moved after hearing this. After all, she was a pirate in exile. These myths and histories in the northern territory were of no use to her at all, and the scroll was weird, even if she was allowed to stay, she would not Maybe take the Ice Queen and play with the lives of her crew, she doesn't want her crew to all turn into feathered monsters.

Thinking of this, she glanced at Fisher beside her. Fisher understood what she meant. Under the gold box, his middle finger and thumb pressed hard against the index finger at the same time, and pinched a little on the pulp of the index finger. Blood, and then he precisely controlled the weak magic power mixed with that little bit of blood to leave a mark on the bottom of the golden box.

The imprint he left now has a special scientific name in magic, called [Standard Marker Element]. A rough definition is a clear target that can be pointed at by other magic. If this golden box leaves his hand, he can use other tracking magic to locate the marker.

Herdor, the other party, is a magician who knows magic, but Fisher expected that he would not be able to find this marker, because the golden box is not an ordinary item, but a relic.

Relics will produce additional magic fluctuations, which can easily cover the fluctuations of markers, which is why the current mainstream view of the academic circle on the production of relics is the reason for magic materials.

While making a mark, Fisher handed the golden box to Alagina, asking her to dispose of the scroll.

"I understand. I will hand over this scroll to you. If you give us money, we will settle the matter."

Valentina didn't hesitate after hearing this, and reached out and handed the black check to Fisher to Herdor beside her, then reached out and rubbed a ring on her fair finger, which was worn by her The only ring of all the rings that had no magical radiance, was a pure ornament and a companion to her,

"Here are 500 million northern silver dollars, which are not registered. Any bank in the northern border can withdraw them. I remember that there is such a place in the pirate port. You should be familiar with it."

After hearing this, Pachz glanced at the girl unexpectedly. The term pirate port is actually a secret to other people who are not pirates, just like Fisher. If Alagina hadn't told him, he probably wouldn't have known about it. Knowing that there is this place, but this girl knows the situation there very well?
"Zizzi."

Holding the check, Heldor walked towards Alagina, breathing out steam. He put the check in Alagina's hand first, and then took a step back before reaching out to her, motioning her to put the gold box in her hand. in their own hands.

Alagina handed the box to him, and then he dragged the box back to Valentina's back with one hand, while the other pinched the wheelchair under her again,

"Zizi Phyllis, let's go."

It wasn't until this time that everyone realized that Phyllis was squatting on the edge of the beach not far away and was groping for something. The clothes on her body were cool, and behind her was a long and slender tail like a lion with a circle of dark brown hair at the end. Fan-shaped outlines like wipers swept out on the beach.

"Ah? Here we come"

As she agreed, she stood up in a panic. It was only then that they realized that this guy was holding a small pile of gold and handicrafts in his arms. Li picked up an old copper pot, seeing that there was no place to put it, she directly put the copper pot on the bulge of her chest, trying to use this method to increase the items she carried.

"You stupid lion, what are you doing?!"

Balzac, dressed in red, looked at Phyllis running towards his group excitedly holding a lot of treasure. Under the gaze of so many people, the feeling of being ashamed to be with her was instantly felt. reached its peak.

Although he had known for a long time that this lion man was a money fanatic who couldn't be more money fanatic, but this was the first time he had lost this person in front of so many people.

"Damn it, the boss can manage as much treasure as you get with a month's salary, and you still go to pick up these rags, can you pick up dead people's things? You really don't want face!"

"What do you mean, Balzac, you don't know what the more the better, do you? It's not for you, you're so anxious and stingy!"

Phyllis ran back from the beach with a lot of treasures in her arms. Pahez and Ossie looked over there, only to find that there were many hidden items on the beach and bushes of the island. Items taken from the ship.

Valentina rubbed her eyebrows with a headache, and said coldly to her subordinates,

"Enough, stop making noise, go back."

Seeing that the boss had spoken, Balzac and Felice also fell silent at the same time, but Balzac still glanced at Felice with disdain, and Felice was still busy counting how many treasures she had brought back. , so I ignored him.

Alagina didn't even look at the black check in her hand, but handed the check to Pakhz next to her, then walked to Fisher's side, and said to him,
"Let's go back."

"Ah."

Pahz blew on the black check in his hand, put the check paper under the sun and looked at it carefully, and finally took it back in his arms after seeing a faint golden mark on the paper under the sun. middle.

But Fisher did not leave, instead, he kept watching Herdor who left holding the gold box.

From just now, he has always had a guess, but he is not completely sure yet.

I still remember that when he left Alagina to chase Phyllis just now, the group of guards once said, either give this scroll to the real phoenix, or destroy it, so is it possible that only the real phoenix can get the scroll? What about taking this thing off the island?
Just when Alagina noticed Fisher who was still staying in place, in the distance, in Fisher's sight, strange fluctuations suddenly lit up around the golden box in the hand of the steam robot, leaving him behind. The magic mark under it gradually distorted.

Seeing this scene, Fisher's expression changed, and he quickly shouted to Valentina and the others,
"Wait! Put that box down! Throw it back to the island!"

"Crack."

Just when Fisher's voice sounded, Herdor's arm, which was completely composed of steam machinery, suddenly grew gray feathers strangely. It was completely crushed, and in just an instant, his mechanical arms became hairy.

People on both sides were frightened by the sudden change. Ossie walked in front of Alagina to protect the injured Alagina, and Alagina protected Fisher with her injured right hand, and threw him Arrived at the end.

"."

Fisher glanced at Alagina beside her and Ossie in front of her, always feeling that Ossie's not-so-tall figure had taken on too much at once.

Heldor didn't feel any pain, but immediately threw the golden box back to the inside of the island. As the golden box returned to the island, the growth of the feathers on Heldor's hands stopped abruptly, but his arms But the feathers on his head didn't fade away, and became as delightful as a feather duster.

Phyllis originally put all the treasures she picked up in her arms into their boat, and after seeing this scene, she began to worry about whether the treasures might also have curses attached to them, but she was not willing to take them out of the boat. Take it down, I would rather stay away from the ship than throw away those treasures.
Valentina frowned, looked at Herdor's arm and asked,
"Are you okay?"

"Zizi. It's okay, it's just that the right hand is invalid, so I can only replace it when I go back."

Seeing his guess come true, Fisher shook his head with some pity. Although he was talking to Alagina beside him, he kept looking at Valentina in the distance.
"Unfortunately, only the real phoenix species can take that scroll away from the island. If you want to see the contents of that scroll, you can only open it here. Let's go, let's go and see if there is any food on the island that we can bring back to the Iceberg Queen No."

"Shuang Fenghuang bless you, it's better to make the check more fragrant, so I bid farewell."

In the distance, Pahez was afraid that Valentina and the others would repent, so he quickly put the check in his pocket, and walked towards the woods behind him with Alagina, leaving only Valentina and the others watching The mess on the ground is a headache.

"Boss, I think I can explain it. I really didn't expect that only the real phoenix species could bring it out of the island. No, this is completely unreasonable. At that time, all the phoenixes had disappeared, but the son of the phoenix gave this scroll to me. Overseas, waiting for another phoenix to take it away?"

Balzac picked up the gold box carefully from the ground. He was a scholar hired by Valentina with a lot of money, but he made an omission in her actions, so he seemed a little guilty.

But Valentina sighed, shook her head without thinking, and just said,

"If you can't take it away, then you can only try to open it on the island. I will ask Heldor to help you. You, Phyllis, go back to the boat and call other people to help."

There are other helpers she hired on Valentina's ship. In order to obtain the information in this scroll, she made a lot of preparations before setting off from the northern border, but unexpectedly something happened.

Valentina suddenly thought of the man among the pirates. He should have already guessed that the scroll could not be taken out of the island. So why did he want to get this scroll?

Same as yourself?Or do you want to get the treasure of the legendary plane tree?Or is he serving others?
It can't be because you want to see what the legendary phoenix looks like, right?
But no matter what, before you can't determine the real purpose of the other party, you still have to keep a certain amount of vigilance towards that man
"Cough cough!"

Just as Valentina was thinking, she suddenly coughed violently, covering her lips with her white fingers, and after one or two violent coughs, she lowered her body slightly panting .

"Zizi Valentina, you should go back to the boat first."

"No"

Valentina raised her hand and interrupted Herdor's words behind her. Her gray pupils looked at the golden box in Balzac's hand, and said word by word,

"I want to see the information inside with my own eyes, the sooner the better."
