Creating a Different World - Chapter 2711
[Chapter 2711 Training Collection]
“How could this happen? How could this happen?” Greg looked at the bookshelves one by one in disbelief, and wherever he touched, the severely weathered scrolls immediately shattered.
“They are all weathered and corroded!” Jia Zhengjin went to stop him, “After all, no one has managed them for hundreds of years, and there are no measures to prevent weathering and insects. Although it’s a pity, at least the gold, silver, treasures and weapons and equipment are fine, and the maintenance of these is much better than scrolls.”
“Then let’s trade.” Greg was a little worried and turned to look at Jia Zhengjin.
After all, these books were also included in the previous transaction.
Jia Zhengjin knew what he was worried about, so he smiled and said, “It’s okay! This will not affect the transaction.”
Greg was obviously relieved, but he was still a little unwilling, and ran to the bookshelves inside to confirm.
Jia Zhengjin thought that this man was also stubborn, so he ignored him and turned to the treasure chests filled with gold, silver and treasures.
Boxes were opened one by one, and they were all ancient gold coins and ancient silver coins. The style was completely different from the current one, and they were cast by the Long Ears themselves, with the mark of the Long Ears.
So much gold and silver treasures, not to mention the adventure group, is enough for the daily expenses of all the people in Tongshan City for one to two years. It is a huge amount of money!
Moreover, the ancient gold and silver treasures can be sold at a better price because of their collection value.
With them, the adventure group can further recruit soldiers and even recruit strong people from further away to join, consolidate the strength of the Holy Spirit Adventure Group, and continue to grow and develop.
The number of adventure groups can also be expanded to more than 1,000, and there is no pressure to double the number.
He turned to the members who had selected weapons and equipment and were excited to wear them: “These gold and silver treasures will be collected into the adventure group’s treasury first. According to everyone’s performance in this adventure mission, after returning to the base, you will be issued a fixed bounty through calculation. The rest will be used for group expenses and the development funds of the adventure group. No objection?”
“No!!” Everyone received a complete set of magic equipment, who would have any objection? Even if they didn’t get a penny, the magic equipment alone was enough to make them excited.
With consent, Jia Zhengjin put all the gold and silver treasures into the virtual backpack and emptied it in an instant.
Turning around, just as he was about to check the distribution of everyone’s magic equipment, Greg ran up to him with a scroll in his hand: “Look! Look! There is a complete scroll here!”
“Oh?” Jia Zhengjin was a little surprised. He didn’t expect Greg to find a scroll that was not weathered.
Speaking of which, there was no special protection for this scroll, so how could it not be weathered?
Greg handed the scroll to Jia Zhengjin: “But it’s the only one left! Only this one can be saved.”
“That’s great!” Jia Zhengjin took the scroll, took it in his hand and looked at the long-eared characters written on the outside, “What does Pei Collection mean?”
“Captain Cohen, you actually admit defeat to our long-eared characters?” Greg’s eyes widened, revealing an expression of disbelief, “We used to survive in the outside world, so we learned the common language of humans, but the long-eared people have been in seclusion for so long, where did you learn this language?”
Jia Zhengjin thought to himself, with the characteristics of the goddess of knowledge, no language can stump me. But he couldn’t say that, and immediately laughed and said: “I don’t remember it very clearly, but it seems that when I was very young, someone taught me similar characters. I didn’t know it was from the Long-eared Tribe at the time. Now I think it’s really strange! But I really can’t remember who taught me.”
“Is there such a thing?” Greg was very surprised.
“Yeah! By the way, what does this Pei Collection mean?” Jia Zhengjin asked again.
“I remember this,” Greg replied immediately, “Pei was the first chief of our Long-eared Tribe. He was said to be a very mysterious person. The elders all said that Pei was the most powerful wise man of the Long-eared Tribe. There was nothing he didn’t know. Some even said that he could predict the future. But he died a long, long time ago, probably around the time of my grandfather? It’s really strange, why are all the later books damaged, but only the texts recorded by Pei are not damaged, and this scroll is as good as new.”
“Oh? That’s interesting.” Jia Zhengjin smiled and said, “Then open it and see what’s inside.”
“Okay!” Greg showed full curiosity, “I’ve only heard of Pei, but I didn’t know that his books have been passed down. This is the first time I’ve seen it!”
Jia Zhengjin untied the rope outside the scroll, carefully held it in his hand and slowly pulled it to the right.
As the scroll unfolded, a picture soon appeared. It showed a Long-eared Tribe with very long ears, holding a scepter in his hand, standing in the ocean, with a wooden boat under his feet.
Below the picture, it was written in the language of the Long-eared people: “Coming on the waves,
arriving on the mainland for the first time.” Seeing this picture, Greg became excited: “This is the legend of our Long-eared people riding the wind and waves from overseas islands to this continent! It is said that our Long-eared people originally lived on a remote island in the sea. In order to understand the world, our ancestors built wooden boats and finally reached the mainland and settled there after three years.”
“Oh?” Jia Zhengjin nodded and continued to pull it down.
“This is the legend of our Long-eared people being recognized by the magic elves and gaining racial talents. Since then, all Long-eared people are good at making magic equipment!” Greg said excitedly again, “These are the stories my father told me since I was a child. I didn’t expect that they were all recorded in it! By the way, this is the first time the Long-eared people met humans, and then this is the first time they met orcs, and the next one is the first time they met elves.”
Jia Zhengjin kept pulling the scroll open and found that it had a lot of content, and the scroll seemed to have a larger capacity than it looked.
After gradually pulling away, Greg suddenly showed a horrified expression: “Demon! It’s that demon! Oh my God! Is this me? Why am I in there? Is this the Book of Prophecy?”
He pointed at the latest painting, which was full of long-eared corpses. Then in a room, a huge black shadow cast a spell and froze a long-eared person.
Jia Zhengjin blinked, looking very interested.
Take a closer look. Although the frozen long-eared tribe in the picture is drawn with only a few strokes and a simple style, it does look similar to Greg.
Pulling back further, it is even more surprising.
Because the painting shows a familiar house, surrounded by countless undead in the darkness, fighting fiercely with a team of adventurers inside the wall.
Among the adventurers, there is a person standing in the back with a golden glow all over his body. Even a simple drawing can confirm that it refers to me.
The golden glow is different from the adventurers around him. Is there really someone who can predict his own appearance?
Is there such a strange thing?
Why is there a golden glow? Does the prophet know his identity? Or knows the power he possesses?
