Rebirth of the Viking King

Not far from Sophie's room, Loki also climbed out of the bed. Even though it had been a month since that fateful journey, in his sleep, he would still recall the terrifying time of escape in the belly of the beast from time to time.

After getting up early in the morning, it was raining heavily outside the window. He shook his head helplessly. Now he was certain of at least one thing. Xuanyuan Sword would not adjust the weather according to the "lord's wishes".

The first Haikou I boasted about yesterday has collapsed.

And the second one followed.

I had just received bread, eggs and oatmeal early in the morning. Before I could ask Sophie to have breakfast with me, Old Gore had already appeared at his door carrying a thick package. After letting him enter the house and having a brief conversation with each other, Loki already knew the purpose of his visit.

The troubles he encountered also appeared on the gold products obtained from the black pyramid.

They are just too delicate.

Whether it is the golden mask depicting a bird's face and the scorching sun, the dog-headed human staff, or the armband engraved with exquisite poisonous scorpions, these golden creations from ancient civilizations are all extraordinary and rare treasures. If they were ordinary objects, Old Gore would definitely melt all these "useless decorations" and forge them into gold coins.

But when a work of art is so exquisite that no one is willing to melt it away. No matter how you say it, Old Gore is still a half-assed blacksmith. He clearly understands the artistic achievements contained in these three gold ornaments. After sitting next to the burning blast furnace all night, he was not willing to melt these three treasures. .

But it is really unsafe to put it at home. In desperation, he came to find Loki for help.

"Lord, although I, Old Gore, have no culture, I have realized that these three pieces of gold jewelry must be rare treasures in the outside world. If I sell them to others, I might as well sell them to you. This will not at least benefit our village. Extra trouble."

Loki sat in the lord's seat and frowned in thought. After handing one hundred gold coins to Lawrence, Hanshui Village's financial situation was relatively comfortable. This year, the efficiency of Wuya Town's lumberyard and oil refinery is pretty good, and I still have more than 300 "dinar" gold coins on hand.

For ordinary Vikings, this is a fortune that can be called a huge fortune, but they simply exchanged 300 gold coins for these three creations from ancient Egypt in the hands of Old Gore.

Loki felt that Old Gore was still at a loss.

He looked at the old man, pondered for a moment and then asked: "Brother Gore, people in the plain don't speak secretly! We have lived and died together along the way, and there is no need to say too many useless polite words like those businessmen in the south. "

"Although we haven't known each other for a long time, your son Sanji has been a carpenter in Hanshui Village for half his life. He often said that your true ambition is to go sailing. If so"

"I'm going to transfer my three-masted ship to you. I wonder if you think it's feasible."

Upon hearing Loki's suggestion, Old Gore's eyes instantly became as big as copper bells. This time when they went to sea, the performance of the three-masted ship made all the Vikings start to take their leader seriously. While this ship is extremely fast, it can also use the bow knife design to cut through the waves.

Not only that, the ship uses reasonable design to utilize every space in the cabin as much as possible. Except that its carrying capacity is slightly inferior to that of a building ship, this three-masted ship was simply designed for pirates.

"It's done, boss! A three-masted ship can do it! If I can get such a fast ship, my old Gore's life will be considered to be in vain!"

"Haha, I used a ship to defraud you of these three treasures. Now people are not allowed to say that I bullied you?! After all, your brother Gore is also a person who has made great contributions to our Hanshui Village. I will not I will give you 100 gold dinar coins as starting capital!”

"In addition, you can also choose 20 sailors from Hanshui Village. Whether they are divine chosen ones or mortals, as long as they are willing to go to sea with you, I will not interfere!"

"Except for your son Sanchi! He is a carpenter in my village. I will keep him to continue building ships."

To be honest, if we consider the "cultural relic value" attached to the three Egyptian treasures, even if we include sailors and gold coins, the price offered by Loki is still low. But this is all the spare money he can spare at the moment.

But the old Gore opposite was very happy. For him, getting a three-masted ship and becoming a free pirate had already fulfilled his life ideal. However, now that he had obtained a handful of start-up funds out of thin air, his big mouth almost reached behind his ears.

"Mr. Village Chief, you are such a generous leader! I calculated it yesterday. Even if I melted all these things, I would only gain three to four hundred gold coins. With this move, you will not only give away ships, but also people. , I also gave my brother my gold coins! If I find any extraordinary treasures when I go to sea in the future, I will give priority to selling them to you!"

"On the way back, I had already discussed it with the explorer girl from Constantinople. She is a rich donor, and I happen to like to travel around the world. Now I have money, haha, just right Take that desperate girl to where she wants to go and make money while looking at the scenery. Such a good thing can be found! "

Loki smiled and nodded. To a certain extent, Emma Waldorf, the explorer, and Old Gore, the lawless captain, were a perfect match. But this is not a bad thing for old Gore after all. It is better for him to cooperate with the Royal Academy of Sciences of Constantinople and become a real pirate.

When Old Man Gore left the castle happily with the gold coins, Loki gently picked up the three golden artifacts inherited from ancient Egypt on the table.

The years these three items have gone through are not at all short of the National Jade Seal. Residents of the two river basins began to gather and build city-states in 5000 BC. At that time, the land of China was still in the Stone Age period of the "Yangshao Culture" of Nuwa and the Fuxi clan.

There are still scattered clans and tribes surviving on the land of China, but city-states composed of humans have begun to appear in the ancient Egyptian kingdoms on both sides of the Nile River.

The "Thebes, the City of Hundred Gates" in Homer's epic poem, the ancient capital "Memphis" near the Giza Pyramids, and the holy city "Bubastis" of the cat goddess Bastet, etc. were mentioned in this period. The time period known as Predynastic Egypt is already taking shape.

During the period of 5000 BC, the level of civilization of ancient Egypt far exceeded that of all countries in the world, and it was the undisputed first civilization in the human world. It was thanks to this advanced ejection that such an incredible building as the "Pyramid of Khufu" appeared in 2500 BC.

What is the concept of this time?

100 years after the completion of the Pyramid of Khufu, Noah began to build the Ark. 600 years after its completion, Dayu tamed the floods. 1,000 years after its completion, Shaodian, the father of Emperor Xuanyuan, was born. 2,400 years after its completion, Qin Shihuang unified the world.

Loki believed that all the creations that could be carried by the lizard people into the black pyramid were treasures. When these three golden artifacts were still in Old Gore's hands, after all, they were their trophies and it was not easy for him to inspect them. But now that this thing belongs to him, he first twists the golden mask and puts it in front of his eyes to observe carefully.
