Chapter 410: The White-Feathered Griffin
"Do you want it?"
Rose was surprised, these ten airships were not toys, but real steel monsters, although they were very corroded because of their age, but the overall frame was still there, and it was not easy to transport them all.
"That's our business, you don't have to worry about it, you just need to know that the ownership of them is ours. ”
Karl admired the airships, wondering how much surplus value could be squeezed out of them, and there was no need to think about repair, because even the British Library of the Royal Empire of Brittania, which had the largest collection of books, did not have much literature about the era of the Great Goblins.
"You can study the structure of the airship and see if there is a way to imitate the manufacturing, Air Force, what a gorgeous word!"
The members of the Green Day are all children of the nobility, and the most important thing they need is gold coins, and they value the military value of the airship more.
"Don't you want to regret it? Doesn't it mean that whoever opens the magic lock will have the ownership of the treasury?" Hu Tao pointed the DV crystal at Carl, "You guys are so shameless!"
"We're talking about the upper layer, not the lower level. Karl quibbled, applauding his wit in the bottom of his heart, "Please pay attention to the wording, or I will duel you." ”
"Come on, who's afraid of whom?"
Little Lori would love to beat him like a dead dog.
"Let them shout, they won't be able to take the airship with them anyway. Jackson sneered, as soon as the master's war space was opened, he didn't even leave you a hair.
"I'm sorry to disappoint you, but Captain Rummenigge's space props can take them with you. Carl shrugged his shoulders and feigned frustration, causing the group to laugh.
Karl didn't say much, but the commander's space equipment could only take away one airship at a time. But even so, it is already a valuable magical treasure, so he is not worried that Downton will take away the airship, these turtles from third-rate countries, even if there are space props, it is estimated that it is only a few cubic meters.
Downton didn't bother with the thing at all. I've been communicating with Homer: "Do you have detailed construction drawings of these airships in the Great Library?"
"No, only part of the record. "The Ancient Magic Book is not omnipotent, and there are some civilizations that have disappeared in the long river of history, or destroyed by war, or destroyed by man-made disasters, and cannot be preserved.
"It's a shame. Downton lamented that repairing them seemed impossible, and his air force dreams were shattered.
"No way, the drawings of military weapons like this are very precious, for the sake of secrecy. There is very little information in the world, and not many people know about it, so there are even fewer that can be passed on. ”
The rarer the knowledge, the more valuable it is, which is why in the later period, rare books must be donated to the big library to improve the reading privilege, relying on this rule, the big library has the current scale. This represents the efforts of hundreds of generations of elites and the accumulation of tens of thousands of years.
"It's all emptied. Nothing!"
Hu Tao leaned on the window to look at the interior of the cabin, his disappointment overflowing.
An airship can carry up to twenty people, and the internal space is not large, and it has been sacked when it was first captured by the natives, and then the dragonmen came in, and it was a second ransack. Moved away what could be moved, so there was almost nothing inside.
A magician boarded the airship, but soon came out again, shaking his head at the sub-regiment, "Nothing found!"
"Don't look at it. You can't take them with you, so hurry up and go to the next storeroom, maybe there's something good. ”
Uwe urged Downton.
"Let's go, go to the next storeroom!"
Downton took off the ring of the tome and shoved it into her hand in the interval between the laces.
The Banshee of Death was stunned for a moment, understood what he meant, and deliberately fell behind the big.
"In the era of big goblins, these dwarf greenskins relied on technology to successfully create dimensional portals, in order to pass on the fire of the race, sow civilization, but also to collect knowledge and explore the world, they sent a large number of goblin expeditions, ten steam airships, carrying 200 people, is a standard expedition team. Homer explains history to Downton.
The team of 200 people has a clear division of labor, including scholars in charge of scientific investigations, soldiers in charge of combat, and cooks, to ensure that the goblins will not die due to the lack of adaptation.
When the group of people came out of the warehouse, Sereth, who was at the end, knocked on the ring, "Homer, please hurry up!"
The war gate opened, and hundreds of elemental arms reached out from within the door, grabbing the steam airship and silently consigning them into space.
"What are you waiting for?
Uwe urged in an unkind tone.
"Bastard, watch your tone!"
Jackson raised his crossbow and deliberately drew attention to buy time for Serex.
"What's the hurry, you can do it?" Downton frowned: "Otherwise, shut up!"
Uwe Language, they really can't live without Downton.
"No, it can't be opened, this is too complicated, let your arcanist do it!" Seeing Celes walking back quickly, Downton made an excuse to retreat.
Before opening the door, the Giant Guard had been blocking Downton with a human wall in order to keep it secret, so Carl never figured out how he had cracked the magic lock.
The Arcanist is on board, but he is so badly struck that he is distraught and has no clue at all.
"Okay, if you find something good, it's all yours, and we'll have a good time. Karl saw that the Arcanist was absent-minded and gave up on him.
He estimated that the remaining warehouses must have been patronized by the dragons, and there should be no good things left, even if there were, he could let the head of the regiment grab it, and that would not be considered a broken promise.
Downton guessed Carl's ghostly thoughts, but he didn't care, since the dragonman came, there would definitely be nothing left.
"Dragonmen are so hateful, I'm going to rob their tribe!"
Looking at the storeroom, where there was almost nothing left, Hu Tao pursed his mouth angrily.
"Go to the third floor!"
Karl showed no mercy and led the team to the lower floors first.
Sepp and Downton greeted each other and hurried down with the team.
"Why is he in such a hurry? and he can't open the storeroom?" waited for the people to leave, and only then did Thordo dare to sneer and vent his dissatisfaction.
", vaults and treasure vaults must also be in the warehouse district, and generally speaking, this kind of heavy place will be deep into the lowest level, and it will be strictly protected. "Rose's qualifications and brains are not bad, and if she had a better education, the family would definitely prosper in her generation.
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's hurry up, what if they get ahead of us?" Snead shouted, speeding up a few steps, but seeing that Downton and his party didn't follow, he stopped again, his strength was too weak, and he didn't dare to stay away from the team.
"You don't seem to be worried about them snatching the vault?" Looking at Downton's calm face, Xia Luo was curious.
"The magic locks in the vault are definitely more complicated, and there must be guards, and I don't want to run down and attract firepower. "Downton is not the kind of guy who goes crazy when he sees treasure, he always keeps his sanity and puts the safety of his members first.
"Adventure in the secret realm, you should keep this kind of normal mind, you are great!" the wise wolf praised, "We just felt the magic fluctuation, you took those steam airships, right?"
"Hmm!" Listening to Xia Luo's voice, Downton felt comfortable.
"That's good, there are a lot of goblins living in the dragon hills, and maybe there are tribes that continue the inheritance of the goblin civilization, although the probability is relatively small, but you can give it a try. Xia Luo smiled, "When the airship is repaired, we want to rent one!"
"No problem!" Downton agreed, without hesitation.
As Downton walked down the steps, he saw that the corridor on the third floor was wider, and there were no storerooms on either side, but stone walls carved with frescoes.
Carl and Sepp were in a hurry to find the treasure vault, but they were gone, leaving only the sound of dense footsteps.
"Let's hurry up, shall we?"
Hu Tao is not afraid of any guards, just wants to find the treasure quickly and satisfy his curiosity.
Knock!
There was a sudden thump in the hallway, and before everyone could figure out what it was, screams and exclamations suddenly rang out, and then the footsteps became more hurried.
"There are really monsters!"
Hu Tao, who had no heart and lungs, did not feel scared at all, and stood on tiptoe and put his hands on the pergola to look.
"Build your defenses and get ready for battle!"
Downton walked to the front, and as he ordered, the giants guarded his flanks, acting as meat shields to protect the legal system behind.
The screams continued, but the first to retreat was a man riding a griffin.
"Flying mounts?"
Rose exclaimed, because the flying monsters are difficult to catch and domesticate, and there are very few suitable for mounts, so the flying magic pet mounts are sky-high, each head is at least 10 million gold marks, so even the nine empires do not have enough air forces, and they tightly maintain a certain number of flight formations to serve as scouts and vigilance.
Griffins have the appearance and claws of lions, but the head is an eagle's head, and they also have eagle wings, they are elite-level flying monsters, and they are the earliest large-scale flying mounts used in human countries, but in the sixth holy war 10,000 years ago, a sudden epidemic caused griffons to die in an instant, the number plummeted to a few hundred, and even once endangered, if it were not for the great Holy Potions Grandmaster Chenna invented a vaccine, the entire griffin lineage would have disappeared.
The griffin population survived, but because of the invasion of the epidemic, the gene had an unknowable mutation, the mortality rate of the offspring was extremely high, and the mutation often occurred, the survival rate was very low, and it became no longer tame, so the difficulty of domestication surged, and gradually withdrew from the stage of human flying mounts.
The griffin that appeared in everyone's field of vision was twice as large as the lion, and the authentic one should have golden hair and feathers, but this one was all white, and the eyes were even more eeriely dark red, like a bloodshot bloodshot after many days of sleeplessness.
The griffin was wounded, one of its claws was cut off, and there was another wound on its body, blood splattered, so it could not maintain a steady flight posture, and its wings frequently hit the wall. (To be continued......)
