Chapter 1340 Reward Notice
"Emotional factors?" Joan raised his brows inexplicably.
"That's right, long before the Kingdom of Kolas was founded, before His Royal Highness Roland became the Crown Prince of the Far East, he was already the savior of all the residents on our island. We all love His Royal Highness and are willing to serve him wholeheartedly. Subjects under the rule of His Highness the Prince."
When Joan was in Valley Village, he had heard about the legendary deeds of the Far East Crown Prince Roland Kolas. Unexpectedly, he came to an island thousands of miles away, and the legendary deeds of His Royal Highness continued in his ears again.
After listening to Mr. Hanks' narration, Joan learned that the "Eagle Island" was attacked by pirates three years ago, and at a critical moment, he was protected by the Prince of the Far East, Roland Colas, and was lucky to survive.
After that, Prince Roland cooperated with Ms. Lyubov Yangbo, the speaker of the North Sea Federation—the boss behind the Yangbo firm in the New World—to call all the city-states in the North Sea Sea that were plagued by pirates to join forces to attack The "Monster Island" where the pirate headquarters is located.
Through a fierce naval battle, the fleet of His Royal Highness defeated the strong with the weak, annihilated the pirate fleet, and then conquered the Giant Demon Island.
In the final battle on the island, even the "queen" of the pirate group, the legendary witch Kraken, who was respectfully called the "North Sea Giant Monster" by the people along the coast of the North Gulf, was personally beheaded by the prince and occupied The half-century-long "monster pirate group" in Beihai Bay was destroyed.
After the independence of the Far East was established, the new Korath Kingdom has maintained close cooperation with the "Eagle Island" for the past two years.
The newly built military docks and communication stations on the island, as well as the "Mysuo Project" under construction, were all built under the auspices of the Far East government.
This desolate island, which can't even be self-sufficient in the most basic rations, and has no other industry other than breeding giant eagles, can achieve its current prosperity, completely relying on the support of the Far East government. Of course, the local residents love Kolas Kingdom, respect and love His Majesty the King and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
After chatting about trivial matters for a while, Medea returned to the topic and asked Mr. Hanks about Kista.
Hearing the name "Sista", Hanks' eyes suddenly became sharp, and he stared at Medea for a while before speaking.
"Ma'am, it's inconvenient for Fang to disclose what you have to do with Lord Kista."
Medea saw that Mr. Giant Eagle had doubts about her purpose, so she simply told the truth.
"Mr. Hanks, my mage friend and I are from the New World. We are cooperating on a research on petrified creatures. It is said that Kista's eyes can emit light that turns people into stone statues. We are very interested in this. I would like to ask him to provide some help for our research topic."
"That is to say, you came all the way from the New World to Eagle Island just for academic research?" Hanks shrugged, "Ma'am, please forgive my disrespect, this sounds really unbelievable."
Medea was not surprised by his vigilance. Fortunately, this was not the first time someone questioned her, and she was already prepared.
She first smiled at Joan, then opened the storage bag, took out an old newspaper, and handed it to Hanks.
"Mr. Hanks, this is the "Motherland Daily" published two weeks ago. There is a piece of news on it. Although there are only a few lines of text, it is related to a big news in the academic circle of Austrian law this year."
Joan heard Medea's intentions, her cheeks became hot, and she quickly lowered her head to drink to hide her embarrassment.
"Mr. Hanks, please look at the picture attached to the report, doesn't it look familiar?"
"A young Austrian genius, a record-breaking 14-year-old Rising Star Award winner..." Hanks read those inconspicuous text messages in a low voice, his eyes lit up when he saw the pictures, and he immediately turned to look at Joan, "Ma'am, The award-winning genius in the report looks a bit like your mage friend."
"You have good eyesight! Mr. Hanks, that is indeed Joan." Medea took a sip of beer and said with a smile, "If you still don't trust us, you might as well invite people who are proficient in arcane arts on the island to verify for yourself. Is Joan the real Rising Star Award winner, you have to know that a genius like him, a future star in academia, cannot be easily impersonated by just anyone."
Hanks is not an arcane spellcaster, but he knows very well that a young man living in the New World, if his portrait is published in newspapers distributed thousands of miles away, it means that he must be a great person. public figure.
The title of "Genius Scholar" is still very intimidating, and Hanks looked at Joan with a little more respect in his eyes.
After thinking for a while, he turned around and walked to the notice board opposite the bar, tore off one of the notices, and placed it in front of Medea and Joan.
Joan glanced curiously and found that it was a reward notice. It’s about the remnants of the Giant Monster Island Pirates, a group of rogues composed of “Sea Wolves” and “Flying Sharks”. Recently, they fled to the waters where the Mermaid Islands are located, and resumed their old business, committing murder and robbery.” A cargo ship of "Eagle Island" was also ransacked, and the loss was not small.
Ser Edric issued the notice, offering a reward for information concerning the pirates.
If someone finds out where the pirates are lurking, or learns about their next criminal plan, and provides relevant information to Sir Edric, after confirmation, they can get a generous bounty.
"Mr. Hanks, is the reward notice you showed us related to Kista?"
Medea asked confused.
"Ma'am, please take a look at the bounty marked on this notice." Hanks reminded with deep meaning.
"The bounty is 500 gold thaler, plus a bottle of 'Stoneskin Potion'..." Medea raised her head blankly, "It is indeed quite a generous bounty, but I still can't see that it has something to do with Kista What connection."
"There are no high-level arcane spellcasters or master alchemists on this island. The only one who is willing to take the 'Stoneskin Potion' as a bounty is Lord Kista." Hanks replied in a low voice.
"I don't understand this even more. Since the 'Island of Eagles' has no experts in refining magic potions, where did Kista's 'Stone Skin Potion' come from?" Medea asked in surprise.
"This potion is not made using alchemy or conventional enchanting techniques, but Kista's blood."
Joan answered for Hanks.
"A magical beast like Kista is born with a supernatural ability similar to the 'Stone Skin Technique'. Only fine gold weapons can penetrate its skin unimpeded."
"Sista's blood contains magic power. It is a natural alchemy. If you take a small amount of Kista's blood and apply it on your body, you can temporarily obtain a defensive effect similar to the blessing of the 'Stone Skin Technique'."
