Treasure hunt begins in England

Chapter 633 Tracking
Judging from the on-site inspection, Liang En can basically confirm that these things do come from a relic, because judging from the rust on these antiques and the style of these things, it is indeed consistent with the situation that they were unearthed in the same ancient battlefield.

In addition, this group of people released these things purely to test the waters, because these things are just fragments with a little value in archaeology, and the economic value is not great.

Liang En even suspected that the people who sold the goods might not be those criminals at all, but people directly hired by the other party. If there was a problem, these criminals would soon sense the danger and run away.

"When will the other party come again?" Liang En asked after completing the inspection of these items. He had a vague guess now, but he needed more items as evidence to prove his guess.

"It should be tomorrow, when we meet at a warehouse in the suburbs." Pierce smiled, "That's why I called you here today, because I guess the other party is likely to bring good things in person this time."

"Because I warned him before that my side is not a dump, he'd better bring something of value instead of prevaricating me with the rubbish. So the other party said that something of value would come over tomorrow."

"That's fine, but if it's convenient, I'd like to go there with you tomorrow." Liang En thought for a while and said, because he hoped to get as much first-hand information as possible.

"That's okay, but you may have to hide for a while during the transaction." Pierce thought for a while and said, "After all, you are a public figure now, and I am worried that the other party may know you."

Although Europeans are generally more face-blind when looking at Asians, if one or two people on the other side who are not so face-blind find out Liang En's identity, there is a great possibility that something will happen.That would be troublesome.

So after breakfast the next morning, Liang En and Pierce split up. According to the plan, Pierce would arrive at the warehouse early and unlock the rear window, and then let Liang En go through the window by himself.

After arriving near the warehouse, Liang En released the three ravens he was carrying with him to observe. As expected, he found someone sitting in the car staring at the door of the warehouse wall.

It seems that today's criminal gangs will indeed send core personnel, because only in this way can they explain why the other party is so nervous.

Fortunately, because of the raven, Liang En found the other party's security personnel, so he bypassed the other party's surveillance line of sight and turned in from behind, and then followed the window Pierce opened to the attic of the room.

There is only one ladder that can go up and down between the attic of the room and the first floor of the room. Judging from the thick dust on the cover, Pierce has not gone up to this attic for at least a year or two.

The attic looked very empty, only two empty cardboard boxes were stored there. After arriving at a corner of the house according to the location Pierce said, Liang En quickly found a crack where he could see the warehouse door below.

Cracks of all sorts are also common in such old rooms, so the fact that the door can be observed does not cause anyone to be alarmed.

The same was true afterward, when two strangers quickly walked into the warehouse to inspect it, and when they saw the dust on the ceiling and stairs they declared it safe without even going up to the attic to inspect it.

For the next ten minutes, the two of them had a verbal exchange with Pierce downstairs, and then each handed out and exchanged the boxes they had brought.

"This is the Roman dagger, the most representative weapon in the ancient Roman era." Pierce said as he opened the box after finishing the transaction and waiting for the other party to leave. "At least it can be seen from the precious metal decoration on the top."

"A high-ranking ancient Roman officer's dagger is a rare thing." Liang En, who came down from upstairs, opened the long box and found that there was indeed an ancient Roman dagger in the box.

However, the moment the box was opened, he could smell an obvious smell of soil. It seemed that it was absolutely impossible for this thing to be dug out of the ground for more than three days.

"It seems that we can't keep this thing." Liang En raised his eyebrows and said, because this thing was obviously stolen and dug up. It is not a big deal for Liang En and the others to keep it in their hands. good thing.

"But that doesn't mean we can't benefit from it." Pierce also smiled at this time. "What's more, for us now, we have gone from chasing money to chasing more valuable things."

The overall condition of this short sword can be said to be very bad. The scabbard and hilt made of wood have been completely rotted, and the steel part has become a whole piece of rusty scrap iron.

The only ones that are well preserved are the decorative plates made of silver-gilded metal sheets on the upper part of the scabbard and the tail of the scabbard, and the patterns and Latin characters on it record many important things.

"Centurion of the 14th Legion." Liang En glanced at the Roman numeral 14 and the logo composed of two pairs of wings and crossed lightning, then looked up at Pierce. "I think you should know what that means."

"The 14th Legion of the Conquerors of Britain." Pierce also recognized what this symbol represented. "The only thing I don't know now is the scale of the battlefield. If I know—"

The 14th Legion is not a legion with outstanding military exploits at all. Although it was formed by Caesar in 57 BC, it is common for most of the subsequent wars to be arranged in the rear to watch the camp. Naturally, there is nothing Great record.

Even in history, this legion was directly ambushed in the Gaul region three years after its establishment because it believed false transfer news and received the shame of annihilation.

Even in the civil war at the end of the Roman Republic, the No.14 Legion could not be said to be very brilliant. At best, it was just a qualified Caesar veteran legion, basically doing some work such as protecting the rear and protecting the camp.

But in the imperial period, the No.14 legion was one of the most powerful Roman legions in the first century AD.The defeat of Boudica on Whitling Avenue is enough to make the No.14 Legion's name go down in history.

This is why Liang En and Pierce are excited, because Queen Boudica is so famous in British history, so any historical sites related to her are worthy of all attention.

"Don't worry, I have a way to track these guys now." Liang En whispered to Fan Meng. At this time, his raven had already flown into the sky and monitored the vehicles of the sellers.

The sellers drove north in an unremarkable SUV. They were not fast enough to be spotted and locked by the ravens from a high altitude.

"It's very important to us to be able to pinpoint the specific excavation site of the other party." Pierce also showed a nervous expression at this time, because as a professional, he also understands how important the things the other party found are.

"Believe me, although my ravens look a bit oversized, their detection skills are definitely not bad." Liang En said with a smile, "I believe that we will be able to figure out what these rats are after a while. Where is it now.
