Chapter 624 Treasure House
【3q】,!
David would not believe in the ancient god Menken. Although he did not know who the ancient god Menken was, he also understood that the ancient god Menken should be the evil god in the mouth of the priest of Forbes.
This ancient god, Menken, was called the Heretic God, and he must have been suppressed by the gods. He first came to the great world, and he did not want to be the enemy of the gods.
The Great World of God is not the Interstellar Federation. In the Interstellar Federation, David's personal strength is already at the top level. Coupled with the application of special abilities, he is not afraid of any powerhouse in the Interstellar Federation in one-on-one battles.
But God belongs to the great world. There are so many strong people in the great world that God belongs to the big world, so much that David doesn’t dare to be the opposite of these strong people at all.
As long as you think about how terrifying the Sky Knight is, his strength is simply unable to compete with the fourth-level Sky Knight, let alone the existence of the Templar Knights.
If the great world of God belongs to God, it can be called the name of God, and you can imagine how lofty the status of the gods is here.
Besides, the ability of 'puppet technique' is not very useful to David. He has the 'corpse control technique' obtained from the Zerg, which has the same effect as the 'puppet technique'.
And the 'corpse control technique' can be used without any belief, where would it be necessary to learn the 'puppet technique'.
David was a little disappointed and threw the knowledge light ball of 'Puppet Art (requires belief in the ancient god Menken)' back into the pile of knowledge light balls that he thought was useless, at least before he knew who the ancient god Menken was. , he will no longer care about this light ball of knowledge.
"Lord Baron, are you resting?" At this moment, the voice of Butler Jason came from outside the door.
"It's Steward Jason, come in!" David heard a voice and said.
Butler Jason pushed the door open and walked in. When he came in, he waved to the maid standing outside the door, and the maid bowed and left.
David could see that Butler Jason had something to talk to him about.
"Lord Baron, please come with me!" Butler Jason bowed to David and made a gesture of invitation.
"Is something wrong?" David didn't refuse, he asked curiously.
"As for the inheritance of the Luce family, you need to go through some tests before you can see it!" Butler Jason explained while leading the way.
Butler Jason took David into the study, and he stopped in front of an oil painting that took up half of the wall in the study.
The oil painting is that several men in fancy clothes are having a dinner together, and it should be related to the Luce family to be able to hang it here.
"This is the first head of the Luce family, and he is surrounded by several of his friends. This is the scene before the expedition. It was painted by the family's painter at that time, and it has been hanging here since then. It was re-imitation more than two hundred years ago, and the original painting is in the family's treasure house!" Butler Jason bowed to the portrait, and then introduced to David.
David also saluted along with the bow. This is Arthur's ancestor. He inherited the power of Arthur's blood, and it is also necessary to show respect to his ancestors.
Butler Jason took out a plaque with a pattern from his waist.
He placed the sign in the card slot at the bottom of the frame.
"Please, Lord Baron, put the coat of arms in the card slot on the other side!" Butler Jason turned his head and said to David.
David nodded, and he took out the Shadow Leopard emblem card and put it into the card slot on the other side of the bottom of the frame.
The card slot is very cleverly designed. It is just in the blind spot of the eyes. Only when the hand touches it, the groove will be found. The groove has been decorated with patterns, so that he will only think that the card slot is for decoration.
When the two cards were placed in the card slot at the same time, David heard a soft sound from inside the wall.
Then the entire wall moved inward, revealing a passage.
"Don't enter, Lord Baron!" Butler Jason was worried that David was in a hurry and reminded aloud.
He pressed a few more times on the left and right sides of the passage, and the floor of the passage moved to reveal a downward staircase.
"This is the real road. Direct entry is full of organs, and it's a dead end!" Butler Jason explained, pointing to the passage ahead.
This is a kind of anti-theft measure. I think if someone steals or robs these two signs, even if they find it, they will enter a wrong passage.
Butler Jason took a small bag from his body, opened the bag to reveal the glowing spar inside, and guided him down the stairs by the light of the spar.
David followed behind Butler Jason, and he found that there were a lot of patterns drawn around here, and there was energy surging.
It is not as ordinary as the appearance of this ancient castle at all, and you can see how glorious the history of Luce Castle was in the past.
After walking down for a few minutes, the two turned their feet on the ground and turned another corner. When Butler Jason pushed open a stone door, there was light in front of them.
In front of it is a gate made of pure white rock, and there is a stone platform on the left side of the gate.
The light here is the light from the patterns drawn on the pure white rock. David didn’t know much about the material of the great world of God, but it could also be seen that the texture of this pure white rock was unusual.
His spirit swept over the pure white rocks and found that these rocks were similar in nature to the companion stone of kryptonite, but more beautiful than the companion stone.
The pure white rock has the effect of isolating the spirit and various detections. For those who want to probe the inside of the gate through spirit and other means, this pure white rock will definitely disappoint them.
If you hadn't seen the pure white rock with your own eyes, and only used mental exploration, you might have ignored everything here. This is the role of pure white rock.
David was not in such a hurry to let the Shadow Attendant enter first. He knew that Butler Jason brought him here to let him enter this gate made of pure white rock.
"Lord Baron, behind this gate is the family treasure house, which contains the inheritance of the family. Only those with the blood of the Luce family can open this gate. Please drop your blood on the stone platform!" Butler Jason pointed to The stone platform on the left side of the gate said.
David came to the stone platform, and he gently wiped the dust on the stone platform with his hands, revealing the complex patterns drawn on the surface of the stone platform.
He took out a third-grade military thorn from the space ring, cut a knife on his palm, and immediately blood gushed out from the wound.
Blood dripped on the pattern on the surface of the stone platform, and the pattern shone with white light, and then an phantom of a shadow leopard appeared, making a roaring gesture toward the sky.
"I've seen the master!" Butler Jason looked at the shadow leopard phantom that appeared on the stone platform, with sparkling tears in his eyes. He slumped his body on the ground and said respectfully.
"Butler Jason, don't do this, get up!" David hurriedly stepped forward to help Butler Jason.
When David heard Butler Jason changed his name, he knew that his blood should be recognized by this stone platform, so that Butler Jason fully recognized him.
Before, Butler Jason always called him Lord Baron. Although he was very respectful, he was less close.
"Master, please forgive me, this is the tradition of the Luce family. Only with the approval of the Bloodline Platform can we truly master the secrets of the Luce family!" Butler Jason explained to David.
Since the death of the old Baron Luce, the Luce family has been protected by the Noble Affairs Office. Although it will not be annihilated by the enemy, the family's source of income is blocked by the enemy, which makes the family's funds tight, even in daily life. problem.
In order to maintain the existence of the Luce family, Butler Jason could only dismiss some of the servants and try to save as much as possible in the castle.
Butler Jason also knew that the old Baron Luce sent an illegitimate child away back then, but he didn't know that the child was sent to the distant Interstellar Federation, and he didn't tell the news until the old Baron Luce was dying.
When he saw David, Butler Jason knew that this was the child of the old Baron Luce, and his face was very similar to the old Baron Luce and the ancestors of Luce in all dynasties.
This is the characteristic of the bloodline. As long as it has the shadow leopard bloodline of the Luce family, its face will be similar.
Butler Jason has been waiting, waiting for David's approval through the bloodline platform.
"Please put the shadow leopard coat of arms on the stone platform!" Butler Jason put away his excitement and said.
David placed the shadow leopard heraldic card on the stone platform, the white light on the stone platform was blocked, and soon part of the white light penetrated the shadow leopard heraldic card, forming a special pattern in the air.
When this pattern appeared, the stone gates were separated to both sides.
"Master, there is a treasure house inside, you can only enter alone!" Butler Jason stood aside and said.
"Okay!" David nodded, and he walked into the stone gate.
Inside the stone gate is a room made of pure white rock. The room has a shape of more than 30 square meters, and some items are placed in it.
There are some oil paintings next to the wall. David touched them gently with his hands. He was worried that the oil paintings would be damaged because of the time.
However, to his surprise, these oil paintings were extremely well preserved without any damage.
David was a little curious about how he could do it, because he saw the huge oil painting hanging in the study. In terms of history, if this oil painting is the original version, it is at least 10,000 years old.
Even if it's not the original, it's just the latest replacement, and it's two hundred years old.
But the oil painting in front of him seems to be only a few decades old at most. Although David has not studied oil painting-related knowledge seriously, he still understands some common sense.
The longer the oil painting exists, the more the oil paint on the surface will reflect it.
David's spirit swept over the oil painting, and found that the oil painting was wrapped in an energy, not only the oil painting, but the entire treasure trove of space was filled with this energy.
He continued to check and found that the source of this energy was the pattern on the ground.
Based on the ability of David's 'research master', it is the pattern of the ground that produces a kind of inert energy, which prevents the items in the preserved treasure house from coming into contact with corrosive gases such as oxygen in the air, so that the It can be kept forever.
It's a bit like vacuum storage, but it's more convenient to handle than vacuum storage.
David saw another piece of knight's armor and a horse's armor, which made him very curious and went forward to check it.
He touched it lightly with his hand, and could feel that the knight's armor and the horse's armor were made of third-grade materials, and the surface was coated with a color of some unknown material.
The chest of the knight's armor has a light gray graphic of the Shadow Leopard coat of arms, and the rest of the knight's armor and horse's armor is black.
David is not yet a knight, so he did not take this knight's armor and horse armor.
He looked at the weapon beside him again, it was a third-grade epee.
David picked up the third-grade epee. This kind of epee was no longer a precious weapon for him. He was just curious about the effect of the third-grade epee.
His spirit was connected to the pattern on the hilt of the third-grade epee, and he immediately understood the situation of the third-grade epee.
This is an epee with ten accelerations per day, which is not bad among knights' weapons.
This is also the last piece of weapons and equipment, which makes David a little disappointed, knowing that the weapons and equipment in the Luce family's treasury are not as good as the weapons and equipment in his space ring.
For the knights David met in Battle Star, the knight's equipment is generally a set of knight armor, a set of horse armor and a main weapon.
There are all these in the treasure house, but here is the lack of defensive shields and long-range attack weapons.
David has seen long-range attack weapons used by knights of the Great World of God, such as short spears, hand crossbows, and so on.
In his space ring, there are loot he harvested before, a small round shield, which can activate the light of protection ten times a day, and a hand crossbow, which can enhance penetration and add frost effect after activation.
What David didn't know was that the previous knight equipment of the Luce family was not only this, but due to the decline of the family, some equipment was sold because it was not used.
To maintain the life of the nobles, the daily consumption is very large. Once the income and expenditure of the nobles cannot be kept in balance, a vicious circle will appear.
When the old Baron Luce took over the family, there were only a few sets of second-grade knight equipment left, and second-grade knight equipment would not be included in the treasure trove.
This set of knight armor and horse armor was obtained by the old Baron Luce when he went to Battle Star when he was young, but he was not able to lead the family to glory.
Among the descendants of the old Baron Luce, there is no talent like the old Baron Luce, and even his own safety cannot be preserved.
David shook his head, and he continued to check the treasure house. In the innermost part of the treasure house, there was a bookcase. This is what he is most concerned about. He came to the bookcase, and the words "Shadow Leopard Bloodline Knight Cultivation Method" were engraved on the wooden bar on the top layer of the bookcase. There are only three books in this row, "Leopard's Breath", "Shadow Sneak", and "Swift Swordsmanship". There are more than ten books in the lower two rows of the bookcase, all of which are general books. From the breeding of war horses to the use and maintenance of various knights' standing weapons, to the knowledge of knight battle formations, almost all the related knowledge of knights is available here. David took down the "Leopard's Breath" and looked at it, and the book was not only about breathing, but also all the training methods from apprentice knights to Templars, which made "Leopard's Breath" extremely heavy.
