The long fairy road is wonderful

Chapter 815 Sure enough, it unfolded like this again
Leaving aside the particularly evil artifacts that have been rumored on Earth, in the magical world, artifacts are not simply legends, but do exist.

After all, there are really gods in the multiverse world, and there are not just one or two, but nests and nests. Ordinary people who are not familiar with the relationship between gods can't even count them.

Artifacts are items made by the gods, and without exception they are extremely powerful.

In other words, the guarantees are all legendary items, which are magic weapons equivalent to the first and second ranks.

The gods create these things, one is to show their divine power to better attract believers, and the other is to give power to mortal believers to achieve a certain purpose.

All in all, it is profitable for the gods to make this thing, otherwise, if they make artifacts casually, even the gods will not be able to afford such consumption.

However, the artifact Petra mentioned has nothing to do with the real god. The Eye of the Snow Mountain is just a god imagined by mortals, not a real one.

But this does not hinder its academic value, and its value measured only by money. As soon as the news spreads, collectors from the entire continent may be attracted to it, and fanatics who are obsessed with the culture of the old empire will not hesitate to lose their fortunes.

To put it more clearly, this so-called artifact is very valuable.

"Where is it? I don't see anything."

As West said, there is nothing on the high platform.

"The first half says that we need the tears of God, the flesh and blood of God, and the wrath of God. Of course, this is just a synonym, it is a kind of little riddle..."

"You still talk about the result."

"I need dirt, water and ice."

The image of the Eye of the Snow Mountain is a big snow mountain, its tears are naturally water, its flesh and blood are mud, and its anger is usually an avalanche.

The soil is easy to say, there is a lot of it outside the temple, West trotted all the way and hurried out to find it, and his somewhat fat body seemed to have the effect of running a [-]-meter race.

Petra is carrying a kettle on her body, and the water is easy to say, mainly because the ice and snow are not easy to handle.

So she turned to Brother Lin for help:
"Do you know the spells of the ice system?"

This is the right person to ask, Lin Tianci has the North Wind Ring from the magic lord Ymir in his hand, not to mention that it doesn't need to be so troublesome.

Brother Lin stretched out his hand and squeezed it, and with the activation of Aoxue Palm, a crystal clear icicle appeared in his palm.

"Is this enough?"

"It should be enough. It seems that my father, whom I have never met, is of some use. Do you want to follow me in archaeology? I will give you a high salary."

Aren't you short of money, where do you get the money to open a high-tech...

"Let's finish it quickly, Miss Petra, I have to remind you that you are in a very dangerous situation, otherwise your father would not have sent me to find you."

"Okay, okay, I see, after finishing this matter, follow me to my mother."

At this time, West also came back. He found a piece of canvas and carried a large handful of sand.

Petra first piled the sand on the triangular high platform, then put the ice cubes made by Aoxue Palm on the top, and finally poured water on it with a kettle:

"The flesh and blood of God, the wrath of God, and the tears of God..."

Thin streams of water fell on the ice and quickly seeped down the sand below.There was no reaction at first, but soon, Lin Tianci felt a weak magical power emerge from the high platform.

After Petra poured half of the pot of water, there was a crackling sound from the high stone platform, as if a mechanism had been activated inside.

Immediately afterwards, the triangular high platform turned into three petals with a bang, opening like a flower, and the sand placed on it scattered all over the ground.

Of course, Petra was also splashed with mud, but she didn't care at all, and quickly bent down to touch the opened high platform.

After brushing off the excess sand, she took out a metal disc-shaped object from the open space of the high platform.

About the size of a palm, the whole body is a very regular circle, with a triangular pattern engraved on the surface, which is exactly the same as the 'Eye of the Snow Mountain' engraved on the stone wall across from everyone.

"The circle represents the earth, and this pattern means that the earth holds up the eyes of the snow-capped mountains."

Wipe away the remaining soil, and at the position of the Eye of the Snow Mountain, you can see a highly transparent purple gemstone, which should be embedded in it and run through the entire metal disc. side.

"This is... the artifact?"

It's not gold, it's more like silver, which is a bit disappointing.

"No, this is not an artifact, this is a key, and it is not ordinary silver, but Mithril."

From the outside, Mithril is more shiny than silver. Without professional knowledge, most people can't tell the difference between the two.

But in terms of value, that is a world of difference.

Mithril is sold on a gram basis, and even the most productive Mithril mine does not have more than a dozen grams a year. As long as a little is added to a weapon or armor, it can greatly improve the performance of the weapon or armor.

It’s not that this thing can’t be found, but that the smelting technology is not good enough, so it’s difficult to refine. At present, only the ancient elves have complete and efficient mithril refining technology. Others who want to refine mithril can only use a little bit of soft grinding and hard foaming. Just accumulate it.

Therefore, the two pieces of mithril that Lin Tianci brought back from the Ice City were the true sense of "overwhelming country and city".

The mithril disc in Petra's hand is not big, and the purity is not particularly high, but this disc is estimated to have been produced by the whole country of the old empire 3000 years ago.

She raised the magnifying glass, and then the lighting of the dancing light technique carefully discerned the small words around the edge of the disc:
"Beyond the crimson, when the three kings come. The tributary of the unicorn, in the corner of the distant star, the power of the eye of the snow-capped mountain will last forever."

"What do you mean?"

"It may be a clue to the exact location of the artifact, emmm... where is my map? I need to think about it"

Petra frantically took out the map from her bag, Lin Tianci glanced at it, and it was just like Saili complained that the continent of Fudora was shaped like a wheel.

The temple collection is nothing more than clues to where the artifact sits, and the matter is far from over.

Do you think they are free?It's not good to just throw the Laoshizi artifact here, I have to get some kind of 'treasure map'.

But before Lin Tianci complained, and Petra didn't find out why, he heard a noisy sound coming from outside.

"What's going on? Hey! Is there something wrong outside?"

West yelled at the workers outside, but there was no response.

Lin Tianci suddenly had a bad premonition. Unfortunately, his premonition was very accurate, especially the bad side.

Do you still remember that one of the reasons Lin Tianci came to see Petra was that this girl was being targeted by evil cultivators?

Could it be that evil cultivators are doing something...

Brother Lin turned around and ran out first. He bypassed the altar and ruins in front of the doorway, and looked up.

The temple was originally in a pond, and Petra paid to drain the water. Now it is a big mud pit. On the pit, you can see a large group of people in uniform, like soldiers, driving the workers and driving them to the go to the side.

At this time, Petra and West also rushed over. Seeing the situation, West couldn't help but support his forehead:

"Damn, it really unfolded like this again."

Why do you say...again?

Petra glanced at it and said:

"It's from the Farghus Revolutionary Army. Speaking of which, the place we dug is the territory of the Farghus Kingdom."

Now there are more than a dozen countries in the continent of Fordola, and there is not much peace between countries, even within the country.

This group of revolutionary army is a group of people who are dissatisfied with the aristocratic lord above who is domineering and intends to overthrow the kingdom's rule.

Petra's archaeology on other people's land, of course, has notified the local government in advance, and only started to do it after getting permission, but the revolutionary army is in charge of your ghost government.

Their uniforms are uniformly blue and black, which is easy to recognize, but nothing special. The characteristic is that everyone holds a gun in their hands.

Not a wooden long gun, but a flintlock style musket that you only see in old movies.

The busy workers were all driven to one side and guarded by several soldiers, while more soldiers lay down by the pit one after another, aiming their guns at the bottom, which was the direction Lin Tianci gave them.

At this time, a young man in his 20s appeared by the pit, and he shouted down:
"Professor Petra, you should know who we are, please don't resist, so I will guarantee your safety."

Sure enough, she was looking for Petra. She poked her head out from behind the ruins and replied:

"What did the Farghese Revolutionary Army want me to do?"

"Your research, Professor. We know that you are here to dig up the legacy of the old empire, which I hope will be used for the independence of the free people of the kingdom of Faerghus."

To put it bluntly, it is to dig up valuable things to use for military expenses.

No matter how high the banner is raised, it is still logistics, soldiers' salaries, food and clothing, weapons and equipment, all of which require money.

And money does not come from strong winds. If you want to expand the size of the revolutionary army, you must find a way to increase revenue and reduce expenditure.

Throttling aside, open source...

They thought of Petra, which was digging up cultural relics.

Things don’t become more valuable as time goes on, otherwise, if you look at the stones that can be seen everywhere, the age of each one is quite exaggerated. The reason why cultural relics are valuable is not because of the age, but the culture behind them.

Now all the countries on the continent of Fodora were once the territory of the old empire, which is equivalent to the same line. The cultural relics of the old empire are of course very valuable to them.

For example, if Dayu's Kyushu tripod appeared one day, to the people of the Celestial Dynasty, it would no longer be a cultural relic, and at worst, the word "priceless treasure" would be added.

The reason is similar. It is precisely because the unearthed cultural relics from the old empire period are very valuable that the revolutionary army came to Petra for the purpose of asking for military pay.

"Our revolutionary army is the spear and shield of the free people. We will not embarrass the workers. Please understand Professor Petra. This is not a threat, but a request."

As he spoke, he waved his hand to signal the soldiers to retreat a little. Those workers who were hired to dig did not care about their employers at all. They ran so fast that they could not see anyone in a blink of an eye.

West got up very decisively and left. This matter has nothing to do with him. He is also a hired worker.

But Petra grabs him:

"Do you just have the heart to leave such a beautiful woman like me and run away by yourself?"

West nodded without hesitation:
"Be patient."

It is estimated that I have been cheated too many times...
