You and me under the world tree

Even, His Majesty the King left a letter to his friends at that time.

"I have known you for more than 40 years, and I have never met someone as talented as you. If my child has the will and talent in this area, please help me take care of it. If my child is not good, or willing to be As a commoner, don’t forget that you are also a member of the Volsong clan, and you are even more capable of wielding the Holy Sword of God’s Wrath.”

This letter was sealed together with the biggest treasure house, and this treasure house was in the port city they built together: underground of Amstel!

The sage Hodder had already discovered this treasure house, but he did not keep it for himself. Instead, he secretly waited for the descendants of Volsung to grow up and show their talents. the existence of treasure.

This treasure is only part of the 'Volsunger's Treasure', but its existence can completely allow Siegfried to support his expenses!

At least in recent years, there is no need to worry about the treasury at all!

As the news spread more and more widely, people in various kingdoms generally knew about it.

Among them, the first one to know is of course the leader of the Hengding family who now lives in the palace: Legney.

"Volsung's treasury..."

After hearing the news, Legney directly smashed the table in front of him.

At the same time, the teacups on the table all took off due to the sudden tremor.

However, Legney didn't care about the teacup, but stared at the Valkyrie standing on the edge like a sculpture.

Sigrun...

Although she never showed up, she has been here since she handed over the 'secret technique' taught by the gods to Legni.

But looking at such a woman, Legney spoke slowly:

"Do you know this? At that time, the Valkyrie ruled the Netherlands!"

Sigrun also doesn't 'play' the sculpture anymore, perhaps because Legni's tone is too strong.

At this time, she seemed to have finally recovered.

"No, I don't know." She said, "Although the Valkyrie lives in the Netherlands, she doesn't always pay attention to Siegmund's actions, let alone at that time..."

Then, Sigrun didn't continue speaking, and her words stopped abruptly.

As for what she wanted to say, Legney actually knew very well that the Valkyrie at that time had actually communicated with the Hengding clan, which meant that the gods had already bet on Hengding.

"So, this land...the Netherlands has always had Siegmund's treasure house?"

Thinking of this, Legney's heart is bleeding.

At the beginning, the Hengding family was completely poor because they were driven to a desperate situation by the Volsong family, but when he entered the royal city of Volsong and directly broke into the royal treasure house, he was almost blinded.

He will never forget the shock he felt when he saw Siegmund's wealth.

But now, more than 20 years later, he was suddenly told that those were only part of it.

Most of them have been removed by him and buried where no one knows today.

Perhaps the people of the Volsunger family knew about this, but he almost killed all the cronies and members of the Volsunger family.

no one left...

However, what is important to Legney is not the treasure itself, but the meaning of its existence.

Because from this point of view, Siegfried's previous decree was premeditated.

Because he already holds a lot of wealth in his hands, he doesn't care about the property of 'tariff' at all.

For him now, there is no difference between the national treasury and his private coffers!

Therefore, he can take these treasures as 'military expenses'.

In this case, the tax decree not only boosted his reputation, but even attracted foreign businessmen!

After all, merchants don’t have any “human relationship”, not to mention that Amstel Harbor itself is a huge commercial port. Kingdom caravans from the northern peninsula can come from the North Sea, and the most distant Hungarian Empire can even follow the Rhine River over!

After all, the Rhine Ferry in the Netherlands has already been taken down by them. According to the news from the scouts, the people there are even building a large-scale construction plan to connect several surrounding villages and build a big town!

In this way, the southern region under his rule will only become more and more depressed!

"Damn it, the Rhine Ferry was laid down just for trade!"

And just when Legney felt angina, Sigrun himself was thinking about the 'treasure'.

Under what circumstances did the Volsunger family bury the treasure?

Regarding this point, as a Valkyrie, he also couldn't figure it out.

And at this moment, the 'official news' from the descendants of Volsunger came.

"Because I am busy with government affairs and have no time to find my father's treasure, I hereby invite capable people and strangers to join my Volsunger clan and search for the treasure of my father Siegmund. Those who find the treasure will be rewarded with half."

Chapter 23: The Meaning of Treasure Hunting

After reading the promotional notices brought by the Valkyries who had been watching the Amstel harbor, Sigrun couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

Her brain seemed to be down at this moment, and her mind was blank without anything.

But at the next moment, she seemed to finally realize something.

Therefore, she widened her eyes, and then cast her gaze into the distance.

Even at this time, because of this news, she felt that she was hallucinating.

In the direction of the Amstel harbour, she could even see the most subtle mocking smile in her memory.

As Helgi's wife, she had seen that man smile before.

Whenever he was sitting at the table, talking or strategizing, his smile meant that someone was in trouble.

Of course, in fact it is true.

"I see."

Finally, after thinking about the cause and effect, the Valkyrie couldn't help but smile wryly.

"As expected of you... Hodder."

She could already predict how the entire human world would become turbulent when this news spread throughout the atrium. Adventurers from all walks of life would definitely go to Amstel Harbor because of this news.

Even because of the distance, adventurers in places as far away as Hungary may feel that it is not suitable and there is not enough time, so they give up.

But the kingdoms close to the Netherlands had no reason to give up this opportunity.

So it's pretty obvious what's going to happen then.

Adventurers will definitely gather in the harbor of Amstel, and 'treasure hunting' must not be that simple.

Sigrun didn't know exactly how Siegmund arranged the treasure, but as far as she knew, the process would definitely not be simple.

and many more……

At this moment, Sigrun suddenly noticed something was wrong.

She felt that she knew Huo De quite well. After all, when Helji and her were dating, the topic could always be swayed to the teacher.

When she talks about heroes with Helge, Helge says:

"I have never seen anyone more powerful than my teacher. Our victory is all inseparable from his plan."

When she was talking about learning with Helgi, Helgi said:

"I have never met a more knowledgeable person than my teacher. He seems to know everything, and any problem can be solved in his hands."

When she was talking with Helji about the strategic arrangement, Helji said:

"I've never seen anyone who is more cautious than my teacher, unless he is not there, otherwise he will definitely keep all the situation in mind, and even give people a feeling that if you don't see it with your own eyes, you won't be at ease. "

In short, it seems that what topic, Helji will always change the direction of the wind when he talks about it, and suddenly brings the topic to his teacher.

But on the other hand, Hodder's influence on Helgi is indeed considerable.

After all, completely different from Simfi Otley and Siegmund, Helgi was brought up by himself to some extent, and he was the closest elder besides his parents.

Also because Helji talked about a lot of things in this regard, Sigrun would know what kind of person Hodder was even if he didn't need to go out of his way to understand it.

So, would he really let his friend's treasure fall into other hands?

Or, would he really let those people look for it?

After all, is he really not afraid of being swallowed up by others?

To be honest, Sigrun would never believe that the sage would let others be so indulgent.

He will definitely intervene in this aspect, after all, he has nearly 20 years of "blank time", during which time, he completely disappeared from the sight of the Valkyries and even the gods!

"Tsk, I really did it all in one go."

At this moment, Sigrun even felt that he could spy on the intention of the 'Treasure Hunt Recruitment' notice issued by the current Volsung clan.

After all, no matter what, the treasure maps are not all piled up in the hands of the sages!

In other words, treasure hunters must obtain the treasure map from him.

…………

Just when the matter about the treasure map stirred up the situation in the atrium, Siegfried in the conference hall just drank a glass of cold water.

He has just finished dealing with the government affairs at hand, so he can take a break for a while.

So at this moment, the young hero set his sights on his uncle.

However, the uncle who looked like the fried dough sticks next door just used magic to brew himself a cup of steaming black tea, and at the same time took out some biscuits from somewhere.

At this time, Huo De is still doing nothing like an idler, just eating snacks in the meeting hall.

Siegfried, however, knew what he had done.

Carrying a large amount of treasure ran all over the mountains and plains, looking for buried places.

After all, there is no such thing as Volsung's treasure house or something.

Although others don't know this, Siegfried knows it very well, after all, he 'made' it himself.

And this plan was discussed at the very beginning, because something like the 'Ring of the Nibelungen' is too secretive. In order to protect Lai Jin, this secret cannot be revealed anyway.

Therefore, it is best to throw the name of the treasure on Siegmund's head.

Moreover, it was Hodder himself who buried the treasure, and it was himself who set up the traps and tests.

According to what my uncle said at the end, those who can successfully obtain the treasure must have their own talents and wisdom.

Even, Huo De was still marking according to the location of the treasure, so Siegfried even clearly knew the amount of treasure in each treasure house.

"Although this form of casting a wide net may not always hit every shot, it can at least catch a few big fish." His uncle once said to him, "Also, those 'foreigners' who first obtained the treasure map 'If you return successfully, you must give them special attention."

Although Hodder was only responsible for burying treasures and setting tests, he never personally asked Siegfried about the situation there, and he didn't even explain much.

But Siegfried's own brain is not bad, and he quickly understood his uncle's intentions.

Stranger...

There is a high probability that the foreigners who can rush here at the first time are attracted by the 'recruitment order' that spread throughout the atrium.

Then, he remembered what the man who was drinking tea quietly said:

"The recruitment order regardless of background can quickly attract the attention of those who think they are talented but have no ambitions, and treasure hunting is a 'test'. After all, no matter what, the number of treasure maps is always limited."

Thinking of that interlocking strategy, Siegfried couldn't help feeling an inexplicable palpitation.

Because, he realized his insignificance.

During this period of time, he has almost mastered the general political strategy and strategy of governing the country.

He even learned how to mobilize the enthusiasm of the people and how to control the initiative by means other than war.

However, he couldn't arrange everything in an orderly manner like his uncle, as if everything was under control.

For a young man like him, it is certainly satisfying to swing the holy sword on the battlefield and have thousands of people respond.

However, Siegfried also longed for Huo De to drink tea quietly behind his back, chatting and laughing happily and stirring up the general trend of the world.

"uncle!"

Thinking of this, Siegfried couldn't help but raise his head.

"Can you teach me..."

Then, before he could finish speaking, the sage who was drinking black tea raised his head and responded:

"Give up, you can't learn it, and you don't have time to learn it."
