Treasure hunt begins in England

Chapter 488 Windfall
Various archaeological excavations are not as simple as pulling carrots. Except for the case of Liang En, under normal circumstances, it takes a lot of time and energy to find a relic from the previous data collection to the subsequent excavation. .

More importantly, even if the preparations are perfect in advance, the actual situation of the scientific examination may be different from what everyone guessed before, and it is not uncommon to work for a long time but get nothing.

According to the information President Charles received, the Rosicrucian Society fell directly into the ditch this time.They tried to find the early gathering place of the Germanic people in the Black Forest, but after digging for a long time, they found that it was the site of an ancient Roman military camp.

This is mainly due to their bad luck. All the initial expeditions avoided the core area of ​​the camp and dug into the camp of the ancient Roman auxiliary army, so it did look like a Germanic settlement in the ancient Roman era.

It turned out that they didn't realize this until they spent a lot of time and energy on a large-scale excavation, but at that time, neither the time nor the expense allowed them to continue.

The Rosicrucian Society here is no longer the legendary German society established in the 17th century, but some people from the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century.

In fact, this is also a characteristic of the current European associations as a whole. After all, this type of organization was basically created by a group of high-class people with money and leisure in the early days. For them, these old names More panache.

"By the way, the thing I want to inform you today is because the competition is over, so you'd better come to the next judging and awarding ceremony." After chatting for a while, President Charles said that he would call Liang En this time. s reason.

"Does this have to go?" Liang En asked after hearing the president's order, because he had been running around for a long time before, so now he really doesn't want to go to this matter.

"If it's previous years, it's okay not to go, but you have a great chance of winning the championship this year, so you'd better go to this kind of awards ceremony." Chairman Charles knew what Liang En was thinking when he heard it, so Said.

"Of course, I also know that you were very tired from doing so much work before, but this time the place of everyone's gathering is Baden-Baden, Germany, one of the top hot spring resorts in Europe."

"You just said that you are traveling in Bucharest, but what I want to say is that places like Bucharest are really not as comfortable as Baden-Baden for vacation, so even if you want to rest, you'd better come here."

So early the next morning, Liang En and the others took the ravens to Frankfurt by plane, and then took the high-speed rail to this health resort on the edge of the Black Forest in Germany.

In German, Baden means bathing, taking a bath, which means that this city can also be called bathing in literal translation, which sounds similar to the name of the British city of Bath.

The actual situation is also the same. The earliest discoverers here were also the ancient Romans who loved bathing. They discovered hot springs with a temperature as high as 69°C in the first century AD, so they began to build a large number of baths here.

Since then, the city has become famous throughout Europe as an important resort and leisure destination. In the 19th century, it was even called the summer capital of Europe, and countless celebrities have come here as guests.

Although the city is very famous, it is actually not that big. The whole city is distributed in the Aus River Valley in a long strip with a road as its core.The city winds and stretches along the valley, backed by green hills, facing the river, and the scenery is charming and colorful.

Since there were still two days before the meeting, they settled down in the hotel they had already arranged and immediately started touring around, and at the same time, experienced the unique hot spring treatment in this small town.

What attracted Liang En the most was the area of ​​the Leisure Palace. For him who was far away from gambling, what interested him was naturally not the casino inside, but the series of boutiques around it.

Those who win in that kind of place will naturally lose, and the losers are far more than the winners, so those losers often pawn their valuables, and these pawned things will naturally appear in boutiques .

In other words, as long as you have a good vision, you can often buy some good things at extremely low prices in these boutiques, which is why Liang En likes to run here.

Most of the goods sold in these stores are second-hand luxury goods, but there are still some antiques that can interest Liang En.

The one that caught his attention the most was a very beautiful looking m1935 pistol, which was gold-plated and engraved, and replaced the original grip patch with two beautifully engraved ivory pieces.

Obviously, this should be a beautifully crafted craft pistol, which is more inclined to luxury than weapon, so it is put for sale in this place.

Of course, it wasn't just this pistol that attracted Liang En. After all, he had seen a large number of precious works of art before, and the pistol itself was not very attractive.

The reason why Liang En paid so much attention to this gun now was because he didn't expect to be able to feel the reaction of the card [Tongbak Summoning (SR)] on this gun.

Although I don't know what special power this card can give the invisible servant summoned this time, but considering that the medium is a gun, this must be a gun-related power.

Considering the need to use firearms in his actions, Liang En finally bought the pistol that was more than half a century ago for US$3500.

In addition to this pistol, Liang En and Fan Meng each bought some relatively cheap gadgets, such as brooches or belt buckles, and planned to give them to their families when they got home.

In addition to buying these items, Liang En and the others mainly spent their time walking around and soaking in hot springs. I have to say that this place is indeed a very good resort, both the hot springs and the surrounding forests are great.

So Liang En and the others felt tired and swept away in just two days, and they were able to attend the awards ceremony about the previous competition with full energy.

The awards ceremony was held in a meeting room of the hotel. After meeting President Charles and Nelson who had come from England at the hotel entrance, they walked into the meeting room together.

Because they came earlier, Chairman Charles simply introduced to Liang En the organizations that those who came belonged to.

"Several Masonic branches, they have almost never lost in the competition, but because of unprofessional reasons, they have never won except for a few years of good luck."

"Here are the hospital knights. When they study, they are more inclined to study those related to religion. I heard that the thing they found this time comes from a church in Slovakia."

"The group of people who came behind are members of the Illuminati. From a certain point of view, they like to be mysterious when they do things. For example, we don't know what this group of people have found this time—"

Following the introduction of President Charles, more and more people were in the room, and soon everyone arrived, and then an old man wearing a medieval-style robe who looked a bit like Dumbledore stepped onto the stage and started his speech .
