Demon Royal Family

Silently, the five of them arrived at Umbrella City along Veronica Avenue.

Umbrella City is dozens of times larger than Hammer Harbor, and it is crowded with people.

Ivo and the other four people split up. He went to find the church priest, and Nafi and the other four went to visit the ancient Odin linguist to translate the treasure map.

The continent of Odin has a glorious history, and the ancient Odin language is compulsory knowledge for many scholars.

The church in Umbrella City is magnificent and exquisite. The benches in the hall are filled with citizens who come to pray. The atmosphere is solemn and quiet. The priest wanders among the believers carrying the "holy bowl", dips his fingers in the "holy water", and sprinkles it on the believers. top of head.

Ivo watched for a while and was indifferent to this kind of ritualistic behavior. The church always said that the gods watched every believer who prayed, but he understood that this was nonsense to deceive believers. He had experienced being watched by the gods. The scene, the coercion of the gods, and the damn racial discrimination were still fresh in his memory.

He stopped a priest, quietly showed the seal of salvation, and whispered: "I hope to visit the high priest of the church."

The priest looked at Ivo twice and said indifferently: "The high priest is taking a nap. You can come back later."

The person in charge of the territory's main city-level church is the high priest, who is the most senior member of the lower-level church.

"How long do we have to wait?"

"After the nap, it's tea time for the high priest. Please come back in three hours."

Ivo's eyelids twitched, and he could tell the priest's attitude from the priest's indifference. He sneered in his heart and kept a calm expression on his face. He took out a bag of coins and handed it to the priest. "There are exceptions to everything. I believe the high priest will allow it." I join him for tea time.”

The pastor quietly put away the money bag and smiled with satisfaction, "Wait, I will report it."

"Please." Ivo said expressionlessly, mentally cursing your mother for exploding.

Under the leadership of the priest, Ivo walked through the cloister of the church, crossed the back courtyard, came to a private living room, and met the high priest of the church.

The high priest is a bloated old man. Sitting on a chair like a mountain of meat, his eyes are sleepy and he yawns: "Are you the savior?"

Ivo showed the Seal of Salvation, "Please give me your orders."

The high priest played with his fingers, and Ivo noticed that he wore many expensive gemstone rings on his hands. In addition, the high priest's robes were also extremely exquisite, as if they were specially made.

Taking advantage of the brief moment when the high priest was thinking, his eyes quickly scanned the entire room, and a portrait of a human head above the fireplace caught his attention. On the portrait was written "Baron Jason Gil Bray Normen" , this is the ancestor of the Braley family, and the current Baron Braley is his descendant.

Ivo frowned vaguely. There were portraits of the ancestors of the Braley family hanging in the room. The high priest seemed to be a member of the Braley family.

His guess was correct, the high priest was the uncle of Baron Bray.

"In three days, the Goat Auction House will hold a grand auction in Umbrella City. I am going to give my wife a gift. At the auction, there is a pair worn by the Princess of Saint Malo Empire a hundred and twenty years ago. The pearl earrings were made by the top jewelry craftsmen at that time. The pearls were collected from ghost shells in the depths of the ghost sea. They are extremely delicate and beautiful. This pair of earrings is called 'Tears of the Looker'. Buy it. Give it to me, this is your mission.”

Ivo's face changed slightly. The high priest did not hide his selfishness at all. He simply used him as a cash machine. He said solemnly: "This seems to be against the rules."

The great priest smacked his lips, pointed his fat fingers on his bare forehead, and said lazily: "Since you don't accept it, then I don't have anything else I want. If you are willing to spend a few months waiting for me to think of the next task, Then please do it.”

Ivo was secretly angry. The rules of the redemption journey restricted him from missing any church along the way. The high priest seized on his weakness and threatened him to compromise.

The journey of redemption does not stipulate the tasks that the priest gives to the redeemers. In other words, the priest can instruct the redeemers to satisfy their selfish desires and expose the greed of human nature.

In Ivo's eyes, the rules of the journey of redemption are imperfect and very unfair to the redeemer. He is almost equivalent to the priest's wish messenger, but maybe the starting point of the church is to increase the difficulty of the redeemer, and maybe it is mixed with other things. reason.

Ivo took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, and said calmly: "I understand, your will will be implemented."

The high priest waved his hand casually, "Let's go."

Leaving the church with a bad mood, Ivo let out a breath, knowing that he would inevitably spend a fortune, and his status as a senior VIP of the Goat Chamber of Commerce would come in handy.

The auction will be held three days later at the Goat Auction House in Umbrella City. The venue is magnificent, and nobles from several nearby territories are invited. The standards are very high, and only those with invitation letters can participate.

But this does not apply to high-ranking VIPs of the Goat Chamber of Commerce, and Ivo can attend any Goat Chamber of Commerce auctions at any time.

He did not know that in the eyes of many Odin nobles, the VIP status of the Goat Chamber of Commerce was a symbol of status and power. Even many marquis and earls were not qualified to obtain high-level VIP status.

The help that Frederick gave him far exceeded Ivo's expectation, but he had not discovered more benefits yet.

…

After waiting in the hotel for a long time, Nafi and others finally returned.

"Have you figured out the origin of the treasure map?" Ivo asked.

Nafei nodded, spread out the treasure map, and said excitedly, "This is Little Magellan's treasure map."

"Magellan?" Ivo looked confused.

"Three generations of the Magellan family, the elder, the elder, and the younger Magellan, are all legendary explorers," Nafi said slowly: "They have traveled almost all over the world, excavated hundreds of ruins, and collected countless treasures. Treasures, the Magellan family was active throughout the Gods Calendar. The last generation of Little Magellan disappeared in the early days of the Glory Calendar, and the legendary exploring family disappeared. But according to legend, three generations of Magellan buried countless treasures they collected all over the world. "

"Old Magellan was a pioneer of the sea and left countless legends on the sea. Some history books even record that the pirate council at that time respected his achievements and invited a non-pirate navigator to become a senator for the first time. Finally, Magellan Sr. refused.”

"The Great Magellan was the discoverer of the wonders of the world, more like a traveler. He discovered almost all the miraculous landscapes in the world, including the legendary Fountain of Youth, Mount Hykalgon, the Snow-Erupting Volcano, the Unsinkable Lake, and even He discovered the Blue Moon, the birthplace of the werewolf tribe. The Great Magellan recorded the locations of all the miraculous landscapes he discovered in his notes. As long as you have the notes, you can know the locations of these miracles, but hundreds of For years, no one knew where the 'Big Magellan's Notes' had been hidden."

"As for Magellan Jr., he was an explorer of ruins and a famous treasure hunter. It is said that he had a paranoid love for treasures. This treasure map records the location where he stored the treasures he collected throughout his life. Unfortunately, this is only There is one fragment, and there are three treasure map fragments like this. Only by collecting four treasure map fragments can we find the location of Little Magellan’s treasure.”

Ivo listened for a long time and finally came to a painful conclusion, "In other words, this treasure map is extremely valuable, but it is of no use, right?"

Nafei looked embarrassed, "That's what I meant."

Ivo slapped his forehead and said, "It's my uncle's."
