Extraordinary Sailing
Chapter 296: The Crown
boom! boom! boom!
Twelve musket shots were fired, which was the highest respect for the dead in the funeral of the navy and pirates. Although he is a cruel devil-like Pirate King, he does not hesitate to show kindness to a respectable opponent.
clatter clatter
The entertainment program belonging to the Pirate King ended, and with the joint efforts of "Earth snake" and "Earthquake Two-headed Turtle", the muddy water surged again.
Maybe the location of the hole corresponds to a certain snow collection area on the second floor of the treasure house.
Along with the muddy water, there are also a large number of treasures of the bank syndicate, all kinds of precious metal utensils, jewelry, antiques, oil paintings of famous artists damaged by muddy water, extraordinary weapons, and even sporadic marine secret treasures.
However, the "invincible" pirate king Huggins was standing on the edge of the pothole, and even the most greedy pirates dared not take a second look at those things.
Soon there was a "boom".
The last layer of rock collapsed.
There is no obstacle between them and the ultimate goal, and some invisible fluctuations that can only be perceived by specific beings are clearly released.
Moo-hoo!
hiss--!
The surrounding sea monsters became restless and neighed one after another.
But no one noticed that Huggins, who was standing facing the huge pit, also had shortness of breath and could not help himself.
For ordinary people under demigods, the "Heart of the Ocean" is no different from ordinary gems.
But for the dependents of the mysterious source of "Mother of Sea Monsters" Ecetho and "Sea Witch" Hipponoah, the two goddesses who hold part of the authority of the Black Sea, and the superhumans on the same path, it is so so. different!
After barely calming down the restlessness deep in his heart, Huggins turned his head and glanced at the direction of the Golden Dome Cathedral. After finding that there was no movement until now, he sneered and gave an order to the pirates under his command:
"Go! Empty the big treasury for me from the third floor!"
Before he actually got the treasure, he didn't want to cause trouble, so he temporarily let go of those annoying bugs.
"Obey, my lord!"
"Leave it to us!"
A large number of pirates who had been prepared for a long time lowered their ropes and slid down quickly with agility.
Even in this exciting time of harvest, Hudgens will never risk himself. Even a Transcendent at the peak of Tier 3, if the rock formation collapses and is trapped 40 meters underground, it is absolutely impossible to escape!
He believed that even if he didn't go down in person, no one could quietly take away his treasures under his nose.
With such a level of caution, it's no wonder that the Pirate King has been able to get to where he is today.
In the cathedral not far away.
"Sir, what shall we do?"
A group of ashen-faced bank syndicate directors stood by the windows on the top floor of the cathedral watching hundreds of pirates evacuate their most precious wealth little by little like moving houses.
As a bank with business all over the mainland, the treasury contains far more than the wealth of the banking group itself. Most of them are gold, entrusted safekeeping, loan collateral, etc. that belong to customers.
If all of them are lost, even if the bank syndicate is strong, it may not be able to bear it!
Old Joel looked back at the directors around him a little disheartened, and laughed at himself slightly:
"Obviously, we were all confused by Huggins' disguise before this incident. Today, we can lead hundreds of sea monsters to attack the headquarters of the bank group, and we really think highly of our Netherlands!"
After sighing deeply, the gray-haired but hale and hearty old man suddenly seemed to have aged ten years, almost indistinguishable from a dying old man.
He understands what these directors mean. Although the Dutch banking group is already an undisputed giant in the industry, the shareholders, factions, and forces in it are also unimaginably complicated for outsiders.
Even if you are a director of the bank syndicate, it does not mean that you are irreplaceable!
"Don't worry, I will take the responsibility this time. Grand Knight Grace has fulfilled his duty with his life, and of course I should also complete mine. After that, I will resign as the chairman of the committee."
The motto of the bank syndicate naturally uses life to defend the client's property, but "since ancient times, the only way to die is hard", and it is still in vain. Not only these young people will not do it, but old Joel himself will not do it!
With the current situation, even if all the combat power in the cathedral is compressed at one go, it doesn't make any sense.
It is an egg itself, no matter what tactics you use, turning yourself into a salted egg, boiled egg, or preserved egg is impossible to touch a pebble.
What he was thinking about was.
The death of a well-known "sworn knight" in various countries is enough to silence the opponents of the banking syndicate, and all that remains is to find a way to fill the astronomically large hole.
Otherwise, even if you survived today, you will become a mouse that everyone shouts and beats later.
"Ah! Look quickly! What Huggins is looking for is actually the crown mortgaged by Philip II?!"
At this time, the sharp-eyed director had already seen that Huggins took out a luxurious gold crown from a pile of radiant treasures with his own hands.
The solid gold base was decorated with thistles and lilies, inlaid with pearls, crystals and cut gemstones, while four arches around the crown supported a huge sapphire.
That is the crown that belongs to King Philip II of Cyrus, the most powerful country in sea power!
Of course, there is only one coronation crown inherited by the kingdom. Even if Philip II, the contemporary king of Cyrus, is killed, it is impossible to use that kind of thing as collateral.
But even if it is an ordinary crown that is worn daily with a total of more than ten crowns, it also represents the supreme right to rule the Kingdom of Cyrus, and has unparalleled symbolic meaning!
From this, it can also be seen how tight Cyrus' finances have been over the years. If the loan amount was not too huge, it would be impossible to mortgage such a significant thing as the crown to the bank syndicate.
"Huggins' goal is really the crown of Cyrus. Is there anything weird about this crown?"
After seeing that pirate Wang Zhen holding up the crown with great importance, he never let the second one handle it. The directors still can't see what Huggins has wanted for so long. ?
Philip II, Pirate King, Kraken, Brotherhood of the Deep, Mother of Kraken
A person and power passed through their hearts.
Then it was easy to come to a conclusion that they believed to be correct: the "Netherlands Bank Group" simply blocked the guns of the Cyrus people!
Moreover, could it be that Philip II knew that he was being targeted by an evil god, and deliberately mortgaged this crown to cause trouble?
The banker's thoughts quickly diverged, and he immediately thought of countless conspiracies and schemes.
Some directors said bitterly:
"You want the crown to talk about it earlier. Is there anything that can't be discussed? Does it have to be like this?"
But even though he said that, he actually understood it himself.
If Huggins really takes the way of py trading, the biggest possibility is to let the "custodians" of himself realize the unusualness of the crown, and then take it to a place where Huggins will never find it, and then alone Research.
However, it is too late to say anything now.
Only old Joel, chairman of the bank group, looked at the crown and murmured:
"Sirius? In order to let the bank group get through the crisis safely, I can only release the news about that place. I hope you are still as greedy as ever!
Now this world belonging to the great voyage is already chaotic, so what if it is a little more chaotic? "
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Beside the big pit, treasures that are rare in the outside world are brought up in baskets.
Then it was sorted and boxed by the pirates waiting on it.
Although these bankers have done a good job of security measures, the various preventive measures are mainly in the passages and rock walls, and they are not so frantic as to cast a curse on every treasure.
The reason is very simple, the fault tolerance of doing so is too low, even if one of them is not careful, they will be accidentally injured.
This also provides convenience for the pirates who "find another way" to carry out house-moving plunder.
However, there are too many treasures in the underground vault, which has far exceeded the carrying limit of the pirate ship.
But in this case.
However, the Pirate King gave a strange order that made the pirates even more confused: take two-thirds of the load limit of the "Icon of Eternity" as the standard, and discard the excess!
The pirates also know that although their actions do need to race against time, there are obviously so many sea monsters that can act as pack animals, why not use them?
For the rest of his pirate career, he may not have the opportunity to loot the largest bank vault in the mainland!
However, there is no one on this ship who dares to question the order of the Pirate King.
They could only reluctantly discard most of the heavy and worthless gold!
That's right, by this time, gold has become the cheapest thing.
What can be boxed and taken away is mainly the fine products on the third floor, precious potions, alchemy creations, powerful ocean treasures, precious supernatural materials, worldly treasures of great significance and so on.
From the fact that the ocean secret treasures with relatively weak functions can only be thrown to the second floor, one can imagine the preciousness of the treasure house collection on the third floor!
It can be said that even if they only take two-thirds of the pirate ship's load, they have already wiped out the most valuable essence of the big treasury.
The Netherlands Bank Group suffered unprecedented losses!
