Treasure hunt begins in England

Chapter 40 New Cards, New Locations

As expected of a national treasure antique, this time the Isle of Lewis chess pieces gave Liang En one (SR) card, two (R) cards and three (N) cards, a total of six cards.

After careful inspection, Liang En found that four of the six cards had appeared before, namely one [Detection (R)], two [Detection (N)] and one [Appraisal ( N)].

After placing these cards in the previously prepared place, Liang En began to look at the two new cards he had obtained.Because according to his experience, new cards often give him some unexpected surprises.

And that's exactly what happened, the two new cards were unexpectedly interesting this time.It may be because the items found this time belong to the ancient Vikings, so both cards are related to the ancient Viking culture.

[Trade (robbery) map (R): The Vikings were the most famous pirates, adventurers and businessmen in the Western world at that time.Their earliest homeland was in northern Europe, but later they spread throughout the entire Mediterranean region.

According to records, they live in the Greenland region of the Americas in the west, and in winter to the Black Sea coastal grasslands, Eastern European plains and even Mesopotamia.The northern frontier goes all the way to the Arctic Circle, while the south has left its footprints mainly in various regions of North Africa.

Skill card (permanent), the user can open this map in the soul at any time. The map records the various settlements, robbery locations and information about these locations that the Vikings have mastered throughout the Viking Age. 】

"This is really a treasure." Liang En summoned the map in his mind, then opened the map and pointed at London and clicked lightly.

After he clicked, a row of text and a small scroll bar appeared above the red dot.The scroll bar is used to adjust the time on the time axis, and the text above changes continuously with the scroll bar.

It's just that the information revealed by those words is not much, except for the population of these settlements, the simple hand-drawn map, and the basic information such as the main industry.

But this is enough for Liang En, at least he can find some Viking Age settlements that have never been discovered before from this map, and those places that have not been disturbed by people often contain precious treasures.

Of course, it is not an easy task to find a suitable excavation site.

For example, some settlements with simple agriculture or animal husbandry basically have only pure archaeological value, not much economic value.So even if he really wanted to dig these places, he would have to wait a long time before doing so.

However, there are still some places that cannot be excavated even if there is wealth. For example, the map of the Vikings records that London in that era became a very prosperous city after the management of Alfred the Great, but the core area of ​​the city and today’s London The core area overlaps.

After searching curiously, Liang En discovered that the castle most likely to hide the treasure on the map was the Tower of London today.

Considering that the full set of crown and scepter of the Queen of England is usually placed in it today, the surrounding area is heavily guarded.He felt that as long as he dared to dig there with a shovel, he would probably go to prison and sing chrysanthemums for several years.

After observing the map excitedly for a while, Liang En turned his attention away from the map and began to observe the (SR) card he got this time. Unlike the previous item card, this is a first-time card. The skill card that appears first.

[Vikings (SR): Today everyone may call the Russians a fighting nation, but 1000 years ago, the Vikings were the real fighting nation, and there were even berserkers among them who were desperate in battle .

In addition, they also have their own special language and characters, as well as their own gods and epic stories.

And a real Viking not only needs to have a strong body, but also must have the wisdom hidden under the muscles.Only then was that era named the Viking Age

Strengthening card (one-time), effect [-]: After using this card, the user will permanently master the poems and stories in "Ida" and "Sakya" that were passed down by the Viking population to today .And be able to read and write these stories and poems in ancient Viking languages ​​and runes.

Effect [-]: After using the card, the user can get a chance to strengthen his body and have a body as powerful as an ancient Viking warrior.

Note that obtaining such a body requires sufficient nutritional supplements, so for the safety of the user, please make corresponding preparations before using the card. 】

"No wonder this one-time card can be (SR)." Looking at the prompt on the card.Liang En showed a knowing expression.Because the effect of this card is equivalent to making his body fully strengthened.

Compared with the previous skills or skills, this kind of physical strengthening is obviously more valuable, because it means that his power has crossed the line between illusion and reality, and can gradually affect the real world.

Moreover, the few cards this time also allowed Liang En to refresh his understanding of his golden fingers, because this time the cards burst out the moment he discovered the chess pieces, not when he paid the money and received the certificate. Cards that appeared later.

So after summarizing all the situations, Liang En realized that besides the cards he could get after obtaining the items, he discovered some important things that had been hidden in history for a long time but had never been discovered by anyone could also get cards. without confirming its attribution.

That is to say, if he unearths something that has never been discovered in this world like the ruins of Troy in the future, even if he needs to not take anything away according to the law, he can still get a lot of valuable cards.

After reading these two new cards, Liang En quickly fell asleep.And early the next morning, he drove south to the location of the Blair Drummond Wildlife Park and Adventure Park.

Because in the map he obtained, this area is only a dozen kilometers away from the mouth of the river. The Viking Age was once a relatively well-known small trade center.

According to the records on that map, this trade center was established on the basis of an ancient town.

The area was inhabited hundreds or even thousands of years before their arrival.When this trading town was built, many traces of human life were dug out.

More importantly, this place name reminded him of another treasure.If memory is correct, the scale of this treasure is not large.But it was able to make Liang En earn a lot of cash.

After driving into the park, he did not get out of the car, but drove around where driving was allowed.Soon, he found the small hillside on the boundary line between the wilderness and the woods in his memory.

After parking the car there, Liang En took out the unused metal detector that he had brought all the way and even paid 60 pounds to go to the island and started to detect it.

It's a pity that this place has been a park for a long time, and it was also a famous licensed hunting area in the UK before.So after the metal detector rang a few times, all it dug up were bottle caps or the casings of shotgun bullets.

Although the metal detector in his hand claims to be able to distinguish gold, silver or iron below the ground.But this is not the case in practice.

At least a few times in a row metal detectors showed gold, but all that was dug up were copper coins or shotgun shell casings.

But as he gradually expanded the scope of his search, Liang En found a large rock that had been buried below the ground for nearly a thousand years.Then use this stone as a location to start searching for traces of the trade center back then.

A few minutes later, he came to the edge of the large field, and then found the core facility of the trade center: a circular religious place.

Of course, because of the long passage of time.All presence on the ground of the religious site has completely disappeared, but after excavating more than 30 centimeters of top soil in selected places, some stones that appeared to be disconnected from them appeared in the pits.

"I finally found it." Looking at the rough stones, Liang En wiped off his sweat, and a smile appeared on his face.
