Path of The Dragonborn

good. Heliga thought to himself—this person seemed to be honest and didn't lie to himself.

The volcanic island in the far north of Semlya was where Regunat used to live after leaving Libel. Choosing there, in addition to the extreme harsh climate and far from the mainland, it is basically impossible for outsiders to go there to disturb. It is also because of this that the aborigines there maintain many of the culture and traditions of the pre-revolution. ; Although they do not reject the products of modern technology, both Regunat and Zeit obviously think that the primitive natural ecology is more suitable for them.

In modern times, with the help of steam icebreakers, the explorers of Remifila found a route to this independent island; after a period of unsatisfactory exchanges, the two sides reached an unsteady one. Loose alliance. The extremely harsh natural climate gives these indigenous people living in caves and underground have an extraordinary understanding of natural knowledge. If it weren’t for not having enough time for them to invent words, they might be able to develop independently as much as many medieval ones. The alchemy and occult of the big family.

In any case, a lot of knowledge from this ancient tribe began to flow from Remi Filia to all over the world. Even Qi Yao Church, some of its prescriptions come from the ancient knowledge handed down from this tribe. And from what Regunat told him, he knew that the Qi Yao Church actually only knew part of it, and there was more to be discovered about the knowledge of this mysterious northern tribe.

It just so happened that in the list of all the people who participated in the commendation meeting that Heilijia saw about the details of the medical university student named Kona Bursa, he noticed that some of the drugs he used seemed to be the same as Regunat. Something I told myself was extremely similar.

"I think, not only that... In fact, there should be something about the ancient knowledge of your grandfather's tribe in your home?" Heliga said the truth.

"...Yes. Although there is no written word in his hometown... But with the help of the early Remi Filia scholars, a "medical classic" was completed dictated by the elders of the tribe. only…"

"It's just that, strictly speaking, that thing is considered by the church to be "heresy" related items, right? Heliga smiled and said something that Kona was afraid to say.

"...Although the church doesn't seem to be really serious about tracing these...but..." He suddenly stopped in the middle of what he said-probably because he suddenly discovered that it is quite unwise to expose himself to his family in this way; especially It's actually someone who just met today, who is not even an acquaintance.

"Let’s open the skylight and speak up... Generally speaking, I am quite interested in the family medical classics in your hand... Even though I know there are some heretical ideas that are not recognized by the church." Haley pressured his voice in a low voice. I want to buy the original text from you. Of course, you can keep a copy of it or something... if you plan to continue your research. If both the Remi Filia Medical School and the Foundation think you are wasting time , How about it’s up to me to fund it?"

As he said, Heliga stretched out five fingers.

"Five...five hundred thousand?" Kona, who looked at Heliga's hand, froze for a long time, said hesitatingly, but Heliga seemed to be visibly stunned when he heard the offer. This is probably the imagination limited by poverty.

"Five million." Heliga shook her head and said the number that made Kona's mouth open into an "O" shape. "Check, seven obsidian crystals or Mira cash, anything is fine. If you promise, I I'll go back with you to pick up the goods tonight."

"...Are you serious? Although the book my grandfather left behind is indeed an antique..."

"It's also a banned book forbidden by the church. Although there is probably no problem...but these news are always circulating quickly. I am a person who has some interest and research in herbal medicine, and I can see that you are used to treat diseases and save people. How did those medicines come from? If these gossips reach the ears of the church...or, when you graduate from medical school, or what academic achievements you have made to be known by others, then someone will come out of various The purpose is to check your history..."

Although it was an excuse that Heliga came up with, it was not without reason. Heliga saw that he seemed to persuade the other party to a certain extent, "This is indeed... But, if that is the church's banned book..." Kona hesitated to speak.

"So you are still too naive... the rich nobles of the empire, which one does not spend money to collect some art that is considered crooked by the church?" Heliga decisively pulled out his noble colleagues. He said, "Although the church will try its best to search for some of the ancient relics that are not dangerous, it will turn a blind eye to the privileged class of us." This is the truth-some are held by the nobles. Ancient relics and knowledge that are not considered dangerous goods, even if the church knows it, they don’t bother to deal with it. They will only act when they are judged by the canonized province’s high-level officials to cause harm to society, or negotiate through diplomatic documents, or simply Send a "Star Cup Knight" to grab it hard, "So it is in your hands. It may cause some unnecessary troubles in the future, but it will be different in my hands. Besides, I will let you continue to do what you like. Research, and there is no need to worry about insufficient budget... Isn’t that cost-effective?"

"...Then... Since you have said so." Kona thought, it seems that the same is true, plus the number of 5 million mils is definitely an astronomical number for him, and exchanged with it Yes, it's nothing more than an ancient book that you will only flip through when you are bored.

Of course, he is not without worries. After all, he also knows that no one is willing to do business at a loss. Heliga’s offer of such generous terms is hard to say whether he can get more benefits from it; but in any case, Kona feels that he will definitely not suffer. Even if the other party gains more, then this is a win-win transaction, why not for?

The two reached a tacit understanding, and Heliga felt that the goal he wanted to lay the groundwork for himself was achieved. Of course, he is not simply interested in this kind of exotic treasure; Regunat’s intelligence mentions that it is not because of the traditional wisdom of herbalism that the church is hostile to it, but because it contains Certain thoughts have the possibility of subverting the current world order constructed by the church. After hearing Regunat's description of the details, Heliga felt that this might be an opportunity for him to add more insurance.
