The Mysterious World Under Steampunk
Chapter 1499 Discovery
Soldiers in the Kingdom of Teresa's corps are treated very well, far exceeding those of other countries' armies, and there are many ways to get promoted in the corps. Military merit, if you return to Teresa's country, it will be cut in half. Coupled with the reduction of other factors, it is not bad to be able to retain 30% of military merit in the end.
Therefore, Teresa's first choice for their own future planning is naturally to join the Academy City and become a scholar. If there is no way to become a scholar, they will find a way to join various regiments in the kingdom, accept foreign employment missions as a regiment, and earn military merits , Only when all the avenues fail, will he join the mercenary regiment of other countries as an individual.
It is precisely because the treatment of the Kingdom Corps is very good, so the various military regulations are also very strict. Even senior officers at the level of the regiment commander must deal with these military regulations very carefully. Once the military regulations are triggered, they will also be punished.
For the Third Corps, the spoils obtained from the suppression of the Son of the Virgin are far less valuable than military exploits. The money after the auction of the spoils can only be regarded as additional income. If this extra income affects the order of the Corps itself , violated the military regulations, and thus reduced military merits, so for the members of the Corps, the gain outweighed the loss.
Therefore, almost all the Kingdom Corps have the same attitude towards the loot. Take action as soon as possible, settle the matter, divide the money, and avoid getting into trouble. They will not go to time-consuming and laborious things like appraising the value of jewelry. Do it, they will just randomly set a starting price for a batch of loot, and sell it.
It is also for this reason that every auction of spoils held by the Kingdom Corps is a feast for merchants that can make them a lot of money. This also makes chambers of commerce from various countries set up an office near the Kingdom Corps station The office specializes in dealing with the auction of corps spoils.
However, in normal times, these chambers of commerce will also conduct some trade with local chambers of commerce in the Kingdom of Teresa, indirectly driving the business exchanges of the entire Kingdom of Teresa.
Although, in the eyes of the vast majority of people, this kind of business dealings due to the spoils of the corps is just some unintentional benefits, but in the eyes of Leo and Sylvia, it is obvious that this should be the beginning of the Kingdom of Teresa. well calculated.
Perhaps in the eyes of many people, the auction of the spoils of the corps will cause the Theresa Kingdom to lose a lot of wealth, but if it is carefully calculated, compared with the various benefits generated by a large number of business contacts with foreign chambers of commerce, these wealth are not worth it. It's worth mentioning.
This jewelry was finally auctioned by a foreign chamber of commerce at a price that was not particularly exaggerated. This was not because the jewelry could not be sold at a higher price, but because the rules of the Corps auction were cash transactions, and those who were not prepared enough Many people, even with a strong financial background, still have not been able to become the final winner.
However, after the foreign chamber of commerce took the jewelry, some chambers of commerce have sent people to contact it one after another, seeming to want to buy one of these jewels at a high price. If the foreign chamber of commerce can successfully sell those specific value If you buy jewelry, you should be able to recover most of the auction money you paid, and the remaining jewelry is basically a steady profit.
Subsequent auction items are all miscellaneous items such as furs and grains. Although the profits are far less than jewelry, they can still make a fortune. After all kinds of miscellaneous items are sold out, the second climax of the auction will come again. The content of an auction is somewhat special, it is a human head.
The heretics of the Son of the Virgin are almost all on the list of heresies in various churches, and the Church of True God also has different rewards for them, and the rewards for the high priests of the Son of the Virgin are not only money, but also some special content, which is also known as Something special someone values.
The Kingdom Corps doesn't have so much time and energy to go to different Churches of True God to deal with the rewards offered by these heretics, so they sell the heads of these cultists uniformly, and let the chamber of commerce go to the Church of True God to get the rewards. As for whether these heads are mixed with senior clergy The head is going to be a matter of luck. After all, all the heads are purchased and stored in a unified way. The people in the Corps don't have the patience to clean them up one by one. Only a few heads with obvious extraordinary power will be taken away by the investigation bureau.
Different from the previous auctions, this time not only chambers of commerce from various countries participated in the auction, but also some organizations affiliated with the Church of True God. For the clergy of the Church of True God, the heads of these heretics and cultists are undoubtedly a They believe in the best sacrifice of the gods. In the past, ordinary clergymen sacrificed the heads of these heretics and heretics in large quantities, obtained the blessings of the gods, and became senior clergymen at the bishop level.
In the end, the heads of these cultists of the Son of the Virgin were bought by a large chamber of commerce from the Middle Kingdom, but after the large chamber of commerce paid the auction money, they changed hands and called the heads of these cultists as gifts to the Holy Spirit. Heart Church.
The Third Corps was not interested in knowing how the sold auction items were handled. They quickly started the subsequent auction items, and these auction items were the reason why many people participated in this auction. The reason why Leo and the others came to the auction.
Among the spoils from the elimination of the Son of the Virgin cult stronghold, there are a large number of items designed with extraordinary power. These strange objects made by the power of evil gods also have some secret codes designed to design evil rituals, and there are many banned books that have not been circulated outside the world.
After the battle, the people from the Bureau of Investigation will pick out some of the items that are too evil in this kind of loot, and the remaining items will be put up for auction. They don't seem to worry about what will happen if someone buys these items. They may even hope that this kind of chaos can happen in the kingdom, so that they can once again reap the spoils of a group of cultist strongholds.
These so-called sources of evil, Leo and Sylvia, both despise them, but these things are very good things for other people, and sometimes these things can even be signed up.
However, after all, there are people from the Church of God at the auction site. Even if those foreign chambers of commerce are interested in these things, no one dares to bid directly, so they have already hired a local through the logistics department of the Corps to let the local People bid to buy things they fancy, and the Church of True God couldn't get the list of auctioneers from the Corps.
Delkan, who had been calm before, also became more active at this time. He quoted prices many times and bought five evil items of the Son of the Virgin.
He told Leo and Sylvia that he didn't buy these things to use them, but that the college had a society that specialized in the study of evil spirits, and he sold these things to them, and he could get some from them without much side effects. , A strange thing that can be used normally.
After explaining, Delkan took out a strange object he had exchanged before. This strange object looked ordinary on the surface, but it was a metal nameplate engraved with complicated patterns and patterns. Because it had already been used, the extraordinary power contained in it It's gone too, so it's pretty inconspicuous.
At the beginning, Leo didn't pay much attention to the strange object made by the secret society of the academy city, just because Delkan had already taken it out and handed it over, so he took it and looked at it casually.
However, when he saw the patterns on the edge of the metal nameplate that would be considered as decorations, a strange expression appeared on his face, and he also focused a little. After reading the metal nameplate twice, he finally Return it to Delkan.
Sylvia also noticed Leo's strangeness, and looked over inquiringly.
And Leo didn't answer, just made a gesture. After seeing the gesture, Sylvia also showed a surprised expression.
This simple gesture is not ordinary, because it represents the tower wizard, which is a gesture that tower wizards only make when they meet, and Sylvia also knows the meaning of this gesture.
The reason why Leo made this gesture was because the inconspicuous metal nameplate that Delkan took out had traces of tower wizards making magical objects for wizards. The pattern on the edge of the nameplate was actually a secret word unique to tower wizards. This secret language is improved from the Gamore language, and it does not contain any power in itself, it is more like a badge of identity.
Leo has already deciphered the meaning of this secret language just now, and its meaning is very simple and clear, it is the Tower of the Purple Crow.
There is not only one high tower for wizards. Almost every official wizard can build their own wizard towers. The names are different. The wizard towers built by the wizards of the high towers are all named by the wizards themselves. For example, the current Tower of the Purple Crow is the name of this kind of wizard tower.
Although he deciphered the meaning of the secret language, Leo didn't know which tower wizard the Tower of the Purple Crow represented. In the data of the tower wizards in his database, no wizard would use the Purple Crow as a mark. But he can be sure that the wizard who left this secret message is definitely a wizard from the world of Velen, because there is no such thing as a purple crow in this world, and the purple crow is a specific bird in the world of Velen.
Unexpectedly, it was discovered that the school city had an inexplicable connection with the wizard of the tower, which made Leo look forward to the trip to the school city even more. He temporarily put this matter aside and returned his attention to the auction.
Soon all the evil wonders were sold out. Except for three evil wonders that were photographed by the church, the others were bought by private individuals.
The Church of True God present is not without the financial resources to buy all the evil wonders, but if they buy all the evil wonders with a lot of money, then they can only be spectators in the next more important auction, and they know very well that the Corps will The evil strange items that are put up for auction will definitely not be too harmful, even if they are bought by someone, it doesn't matter.
The auction is now coming to an end. At this time, a large number of books found in the stronghold of the Son of the Virgin are being auctioned.
The Son of the Virgin claims that the Supreme Virgin is the source of all the gods and gave birth to all the gods, so they will take the initiative to collect the books of other churches, and prove the correctness of their teachings by interpreting some of the contents of the books of other churches.
It is precisely because of the spontaneous behavior of the Church of the Son of the Virgin that there are often banned and out-of-print books in the collections of the Church of the Son of the Virgin, and even some books left by the extinct church. It doesn't make any sense to me, but it has a huge effect on certain people or forces, not to mention that these books are very likely to contain some sacred objects of the Church of the True God and the Church of Evil God that contain special powers.
During the auction, Delkan also quoted several times, but soon he was defeated and became a frustrated bystander. Although he had some financial resources, compared to those big merchants and the Church of True God, Obviously not enough.
On the contrary, Leo and Sylvia each paid a few prices and bought some banned and out-of-print books they liked, and these books they bought all hid extraordinary power without exception, and some of them were even more powerful. The power of the abyss is hidden.
In addition, during the auction, Leo scanned the unbought books through the spirit network, and completely copied the internal and external structure details of those books in the database, and then organized them into material.
After he scanned more than a dozen banned books, he was suddenly attracted by a book called Hammer of Justice that is currently being auctioned. As the name suggests, this book should have been written by the Church of Justice's early Heresy Hall Books used to discern heresy.
This book can be said to be the scandal that the Justice Church most wants to erase, because the method of discerning heresy introduced in this book is so absurd and crazy in the present. In the crazy age, the difference between the Church of True God and the Church of Evil God in that era was only the name, so the Church of Justice collected and destroyed this book on its own initiative, and now the Hammer of Justice is almost out of print.
However, the reason why this book attracted Leo's attention was not the absurd content of Hammer of Justice, but that the structure model of the book he built in his mind after scanning the mental network was actually the same as another book he scanned a few days ago called The scriptures of the Church of the Pleasant of the Kamasutra are exactly the same, and that book was in the hands of a caravan steward following the procession of the Academy City.
Two books with similar thickness but completely different contents and materials were scanned by the spirit network, and they appeared in his database with exactly the same structure model. This is obviously very abnormal, which also made Leo think of The Son of Mary cultist who tried to attack the Academy team a few days ago.
Thinking of this, he tried to open the structure module of this book in the spirit network. According to the normal situation, after opening the structure module, he can read the content of this book like an ordinary book, because The spirit net refers to all the structural details of the entire forged book, including material, paper texture, and scratches.
But now, he found that the pages of the book he turned were all blank, without writing anything.
After discovering this abnormality, Leo didn't think much about it. He raised his hand and shouted: "Five hundred gold seven leaves."
