Chapter 949: Gargas

And Hoffman was able to tell this unbelievable news, which means that the exploration team may have really discovered something.

A wisp of irrepressible excitement flashed in Hoffman's eyes, and he nodded and said: "Yes, the exploration team went deep into Lokdanmo, followed the clues and searched for nearly half a year, and even lost contact with us for a while, and finally made an amazing discovery in the Grand Canyon of Gargas. ”

To be honest, if it weren't for knowing that Hoffman wouldn't lie to himself, Lin Li would really be hard to believe, this is something that seems more and more ridiculous. The environment of Locke Fanmo is already quite harsh in the Anriel Continent, and the environment of the Gargas Grand Canyon mentioned by Hoffman is even worse to the extreme. If the High Elves are disgusted with Lockevanmo's environment, then they can be said to have a deep hatred for Gargas's environment.

In the language of the dwarves, Gargas means impassable, and the Grand Canyon of Gargas is indeed an almost impassable moat. The entire Grand Canyon stretches for thousands of miles, and the cliffs on both sides are like slashing axes, and they are covered with thick ice that has existed for an unknown number of thousands of years. The bottom of the canyon is bottomless, and the darkness is daunting, and only gusts of cold wind can be heard passing through and letting out a terrible wail, as if going straight to the terrifying endless abyss.

The Grand Canyon of Gargarz, which divides the dwarven kingdom and the plains of the breez, into two different worlds, has almost no possibility of surpassing. It is precisely because of the existence of this moat that almost all the trade between the Light Wind Plains and the Dwarven Kingdom must be carried out through the territory of the Dao Ryding Kingdom. Perhaps, this is also one of the reasons why many forces in the Light Wind Plain have always refused to integrate into the Kingdom of France, after all, if they are truly integrated into the Kingdom of France, the Kingdom of Leiding will inevitably add many obstacles to this trade route.

"About two months ago, the expedition party that had gone to Lokdanmo returned here, and only two of the fifty people came back. But they didn't die in vain, and from what they brought back, we discovered an absolutely astonishing secret. Not only is there a real High Elf ruin in the Gargas Canyon, but it is probably much larger than any of our previous excavations. Hoffman's two small eyes shimmered, and an irrepressible excitement appeared on his face.

For a clue that seems extremely absurd, an exploration team of fifty people was dispatched, which shows that the Flash Gold Chamber of Commerce is indeed enthusiastic about the exploration of ruins. And those who can join the exploration team are probably the most loyal people to the Flash Gold Chamber of Commerce, with Hoffman's status, if ordinary people would not specifically mention such a sentence.

And at this time, seeing Hoffman's irrepressible excited expression, Lin Li's interest couldn't help but be raised, and asked, "I don't know if the amazing discovery that Master Hoffman said is suitable to talk about here." ”

"Haha, Master Ferret has thought too much, since I want to invite you to cooperate, I naturally want to come up with something that can make you believe." As he spoke, Hoffman took out a few things and placed them on the table between the two of them.

It was a few stone chips, and a few pieces of metal ornaments, and they didn't look too unremarkable. However, when Lin Li took a closer look, he saw that some of the stone tablets were engraved with some patterns, and some were engraved with the words of the High Elves. And the fragments of the metal ornaments also exuded a faint magic fluctuation, especially the pattern on the top, which was more like a part of some kind of high-level magic pattern.

Lin Li didn't have much research on archaeology, but at this time, he could also see that these few inconspicuous things did belong to the High Elves. Especially the magic pattern on the metal fragment, although it is not that the current inscription master can't draw it, but if you want to draw it on a small jewelry, I'm afraid only a real top jewelry master can do it. However, in today's Qingfeng Plain, the master jewelers are almost extinct, even the high jewelers are enough to be famous in the mainland, at least Lin Li has never heard of the name of a master jeweler, let alone a top master jeweler.

"These things do seem to belong to the High Elves. I don't know how you judged the scale of the ruins, though. Lin Li believed that Hoffman would not deceive himself with other things, so these few items of the High Elves should prove that there are indeed traces of High Elf activities in the Grand Canyon of Gargas. However, what is the scale of the ruins, Lin Li can't help but care about this problem, after all, a place like the Gargas Grand Canyon doesn't have enough power, and it's really not worth the trip.

Lin Li is from a technical point of view, while Hoffman relies on his knowledge of history and the experience accumulated over the years of excavating the ruins of the High Elves. After taking out those few things.

Hoffman took out another drawing, on which was drawn a pattern of a delicate and complex ornament, and then placed several fragments on the table one by one on the corresponding position of the pattern, and then explained to Lin Li: "Master Ferry, please see, the drawing of this ornament was found in a high elf ruins that we once excavated, and the ornament painted on it is said to be specially made for the royal family of the high elves. ”

Lin Li stepped forward curiously, took a closer look at the drawing and the metal fragments on the drawing, and couldn't help but be taken aback. The pattern on the drawing must be larger than the real thing, but just by virtue of the magic patterns on a few metal fragments, Lin Li can accurately judge that these metal fragments should indeed be fragments of the jewelry in this pattern.

As for whether it was for the High Elf royal family, Lin Li also had some judgments in his heart after seeing the structure of the entire magic pattern on the pattern. This magic pattern is the grandmaster-level holy blessing magic pattern, and one function is to create a realm that breaks invisibility, unless it is a saint-level assassin, there must be nothing to hide when stepping into the realm. Another feature is to provide the user with strong protection, even if the opponent's attack power exceeds the limit of the magic pattern, it can also resist an attack with almost no upper limit for the user.

However, what really attracts the High Elves is not these two functions that are already quite against the sky, but when the Holy Blessing Demon Pattern is activated, it will envelop the user's body with colorful and brilliant light, exuding a sacrosanct and inviolable momentum like the incarnation of a god. And because of this, in the dynasty of the High Elves, the Holy Blessing Demon Pattern can only be used by the royal family, and even the Great Lord Osric, who is known as the first person under the Empress, is not qualified to use the Holy Blessing Demon Pattern anywhere.

Therefore, just based on the Holy Blessing Demon Pattern on this metal fragment, it can basically be determined that this High Elf ruin that happened in the Flash Gold Chamber of Commerce is very likely to belong to a High Elf royal family. In the past few years since Lin Li came to the world of Anriel, it is a city in the sky, a mausoleum of Osric, and an underground palace, so it can be said that each of the treasures found is quite weighty, and it is really not very eye-catching for ordinary ruins.

However, the relics of the High Elf royal family are remarkable, it is the nobility of the High Elf nobles, even if there is no great fame in history, as a royal family, it will have a huge wealth far superior to other High Elf nobles. What's more, unlike humans, the bloodline of the High Elf royal family has already destined them to be no equal. Possessing higher talents and more resources gives them far more advantages than ordinary nobles in all aspects, and the relics they leave behind are naturally destined to be extraordinary.

Thinking of this, Lin Li couldn't help but feel a little excited, looked at the drawings and metal fragments on the table, and said, "If it is really the remains of the High Elf royal family, then it is really an unprecedented discovery!" ”

"Yes, that's exactly what I'm trying to say, but no matter which High Elf royal family this relic belongs to in history, it must be full of dangers, and it will not be easy to get it. Because of this, and considering that you've explored the Castle in the Sky and the Tomb of Osric, I'd like to work with you to explore and excavate this site. After Hoffman finished speaking, he looked at Lin Li with expectant eyes, waiting for his answer.

If it is an ordinary ruin, with the current strength of the Flash Gold Chamber of Commerce, there is no need to cooperate and share it with others at all, but this time it may be the relic of the High Elf royal family, which makes Hoffman not careful.

The Shining Gold Chamber of Commerce started by exploring the ruins, and the most important thing is to be able to see how much they have and not be carried away by the huge temptation. Although it is said that wealth is in danger, how many people can really seek wealth in their lives, once or twice, but the goddess of luck always has a nap, and then it will really be empty.

Lin Li leaned back in his chair, his gaze off the table, his fingers lightly tapping on the armrest.

After all, it is the relic of the High Elf royal family, and it is impossible for Lin Li to say that he is not moved, but seeing that the catastrophe predicted by High Gresco is not far away, is it worth it for him to devote time and energy to this matter?

After a moment of thought, Lin Li finally turned his gaze to Hoffman, a smile appeared on his face, and said, "Since Master Hoffman has even shared the news of this with me, what reason do I have to refuse. ”

Hearing that Beili finally agreed, Hoffman couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief and said, "Then Master Ferrey, next, let's talk about the specific details of this cooperation." "Although there are not a few forces in this Light Wind Plain that are strong enough to cooperate with the Flash Gold Chamber of Commerce, the only ones who can really make Hoffman feel at ease to cooperate with him are really Lin Li and his Tower of Dusk.

In this world of the jungle, people who easily trust others often don't have a good death, how could Hoffman, as the president of the Flash Gold Chamber of Commerce, not know this truth. The temptation of the ruins of the High Elf royal family is too great, and it also means that the crisis is absolutely beyond imagination, and finding collaborators who are not strong enough will not play a role at all, and looking for collaborators like the Mithril Alliance, you must beware of each other during the exploration.

Lin Li is different, whether it is working with the Marfa family to explore Sky City, or later exploring the Osrick Mausoleum with the Orlana Magic Guild, Hoffman has learned in detail and knows that this is a reliable ally. While exploring the Sky City, Lin Li clashed with the Dark Blade, resulting in the deaths of legendary Assassins Lancedale and Stefan, an incident that has been repeatedly mentioned by the enemies of the Tower of Twilight. However, Hoffman knew the inside story, and even more so knew how Lin Li could help Elven Elder and the others when they were evacuating. Therefore, in Hoffman's eyes, there is probably no more reassuring collaborator than Lin Li, in the entire Light Wind Plains, and even in the entire Anriel world.

Since the two have decided to cooperate on this matter, it is natural to talk about the distribution of interests first. A reliable cooperation is based on fair distribution of interests, and no matter what kind of friendship the two sides have, the issue of benefit distribution must be clearly discussed first.

Due to the importance of the matter, this matter was not handed over to their respective subordinates to negotiate, but was negotiated by Hoffman and Lin Li alone. In fact, there are not many things to talk about, one is how much strength the two sides have invested in this exploration operation, and the other is how to distribute the gains from the exploration. Who doesn't know what exactly is in that ruins, and naturally it is impossible to detail every item, not to mention that there may be nothing, so it is a simple talk about how to divide it.

It didn't take long for the two to agree on everything, first of all, the possible scale of the ruins, the power to be invested by each other, and the distribution of benefits was determined to be evenly distributed, and whatever was harvested, the person who got it would compensate the other party after the price. With this rule of benefit distribution, it should be said that Hoffman made a small concession. After all, the forces that the two parties will invest in the agreement are comparable, and the Flash Gold Chamber of Commerce is the discoverer of the clues to the ruins.

Of course, in fact, Hoffman's concession does not mean that he has really suffered a loss. First of all, in this deceitful world, it is difficult to find a reassuring collaborator, after all, anything can happen in the ruins, and it is not uncommon in the history of Anriel to be destroyed because of trust problems. In addition, the power that Lin Li promised to send was only a superficial power, Lin Li alone was not an ordinary level twenty-four legendary powerhouse, not to mention that there were unknown hole cards such as Star Fragments, Elemental Young Dragons, Nightmare Lords, and so on.

After talking about cooperation, Hoffman put away the few things and continued to chat with Lin Li about the situation in the Light Wind Plains and other topics. Especially the things that happened in the small town of Gran that day, Hoffman is still full of emotion when he talks about it, and he never thought that the ash warlock who had lived in seclusion in the town of Gran for thousands of years, the gods of the Plains of Light Wind, would actually look at the tower of Lin Li and Dusk differently.
