Great Nobleman
Chapter 1009 The City in the Clouds from Ancient Times!
In fact, in the information submitted by Count Samir, it was mentioned that the long sword was a highly collectible and ancient antique.
It also describes in detail its material manufacturing process, some structural design ideas, etc.
But it didn't mention that it came from the Winged Human Race.
At this time, Brand looked surprised.
Count Samir was also a little confused and said:
"Viscount Brand didn't know it was..."
Halfway through his words, he suddenly said:
“Oh yes, it’s my fault!
Because the intensity of the auction was beyond imagination, I was a little confused during the bidding process. There were a lot of things that I took out for evaluation at once.
Therefore, there is no time to explain each item in detail.
Because I was very satisfied with your offer in the end, I directly approved the mortgage price and thought that Viscount Brand knew its origin.
Now it seems that its appearance or design is more in line with Viscount Brand's wishes? "
Watching the golden decorations on the sheathed long sword in his hand shine brightly under the light, the bright silver wings-like sword pattern came to life.
Brand also nodded calmly and said:
"Count Samir is absolutely right.
It really suits my taste.
But I didn’t expect it to be the legacy of the Winged Human Race.
If I had known it in advance, I might have given a higher price!
Of course, things are settled now.
Mr. Samir regretted it too late. "
Listen to Brand say this.
Samir couldn't help but joked:
“I don’t regret it at all, but there may be many things in the antiquities collection room at home that could interest Viscount Brand.
There are not a few that are as exquisite as this Winged Man sword. Maybe I still have a lot of opportunities to recover the losses? "
Hearing this, Brand also smiled and said:
"Then let me see it first and then talk about it!"
Samir took advantage of the situation and invited:
"I wonder if Viscount Brand has any free time recently. Would you like to visit our Cockburn area again?
The last time Viscount Brand was at the Mage Academy, he accepted a mission from the Judgment Department and went to Cockburn Territory to investigate the theft of weapons.
Because the border issue was a little troublesome, I didn't even have time to entertain them properly.
I didn't even hear until later from Williams that you were on the trip. "
Talk about the past.
Brand also briefly fell into memories.
But in the end, considering that he didn’t want to make a special trip, he still shook his head and said:
“Although I can’t wait to see the Coburn family collection.
However, our Chenhua collar affairs are a bit busy, and we have been unable to get away for a long time recently.
So we can only live up to Count Samir's kindness. "
After the invitation was declined, Samir also felt a little regretful.
He also thought that Brand really liked all kinds of exquisite collectibles, and this time he could make a fortune and relieve the family's tight cash flow.
But now it seems that in the past, most of the talk was in the scene.
——Even if Brand really likes all kinds of flashy collectibles, the extent of his liking should be very limited.
Of course, he didn't give up directly.
At this current point in time, it is due to the continuous experience of the pioneering war and the construction of the northern border.
Most nobles in the empire are short of cash flow, and the Cockburn family is no exception.
Although the [Tidal Mud] in the north some time ago made some families in the empire make a lot of money.
But because the Coburn family was a little slow to react, it was a little late to place an order with the imperial mages and make a container for the tidal mud.
In the end, I only caught up with the end of the trend.
It would certainly be a good thing if some of the family's gaudy collection could ease the financial woes.
——He will give it a try whenever he has the chance!
Thinking of this, Samir also suggested again:
"In a few days, I will go back to Cockburn to arrange things.
At that time, maybe I can use a blank screen to show Viscount Brand our family collection?
If there happens to be something that Viscount Brand is interested in.
At the Chenhua Port Investment Promotion Conference one month later.
Maybe I can take it directly to Viscount Brand to have a look? "
Hearing such an idea, Brand certainly did not refuse, nodded and said:
“Then I’ll trouble Mr. Samir.
In addition, I was a little curious after hearing Mr. Samir talk about the winged race.
Can you tell me more about it in detail?
As far as I know, they are taller and more beautiful than us humans, and they also have a pair of pure white wings.
But it seems that it became extinct in the Farnes Continent a long time ago? "
Speaking of Winged Man, Samir also nodded and said:
"Yes, indeed.
Our Cockburn ancestors started out as adventurers.
I have explored many ruins and collected many historical books.
So we happen to have some understanding of the Yiren race.
As far as I know, after a period that we generally call the "Ancient Era", they gradually entered a stage of decline.
And wait until they disappear completely.
It was almost exactly the time when the 'Demon War' broke out. "
Hearing such a thing, Brand was a little confused and said:
"Mr. Samir wants to say:
Are winged men related to demons? "
Samir shook his head and said:
“I’m not sure about that.
Although there is some coincidence in the timing of the two, there is no evidence that they are related to each other. "
After a simple response, Samir revealed a secret with a mysterious face:
"I think Mr. Brand should have some basic information about the winged race.
But there is one thing you may not be aware of.
In fact, during the last war between our continent and the undead.
The artifacts jointly developed by all races - [Sword of Heaven] and [Sword of Alliance]!
Its main appearance was designed by the dwarves, and its name was also given by the dwarves.
The reason why the dwarves chose this name actually refers to the legend of the winged people in ancient times.
Judging from the information recorded in ancient books obtained by our Cockburn family from some ruins.
In ancient times, when the Winged People were at their peak of glory, they used special materials and methods to build a [City in the Clouds]!
The winged humans living in this city in the clouds are also like messengers from the sky.
Always dispels the haze and brings warmth and light to the earth.
This is why the honorific title of angel comes from!
Because the representative method of the undead [Undead Canopy] always covers the sky and plunges the earth into eternal night.
Therefore, the dwarves hope that the [Sword of Heaven] can dispel the darkness and haze brought by the undead like angels and the temple in the clouds! "
After learning such a secret, Brand couldn't help but be stunned for a while.
Unconsciously, my mind began to imagine the scenes corresponding to the words.
But when it comes to [City in the Clouds], Brand still has some doubts:
"The Winged People in ancient times had cities in the sky?
Is Mr. Samir really not joking?
Even in the current Farnes continent, only elves have a floating island! "
Seemingly satisfied with Brand's reaction, Samir explained unhurriedly and with a smile on his face:
“I know it’s hard to imagine.
After all, times are always moving forward, and many things in the past are difficult to compare with today.
But it cannot be denied that due to the monopoly and confidentiality of knowledge and technology, as well as racial inheritance, it has been continuously lost in the long years of changes.
There must have been some things in the past that we are all amazed by now, but they were buried in the long river of time!
The winged humans were the rulers of the sky in ancient times.
They must have a very unique set of inherited knowledge in the field of flight or the sky.
They may not be more powerful than we are now.
But in my opinion, it is not impossible to have a city flying in the sky! "
