Chapter 10 Split Action
The news Anson got from the pirate with a broken leg was about a 'treasure'.
The news is said to have come from a book scribe in the City of Knowledge - these people who deal with old ancient books every day do occasionally make surprising discoveries.
But this time, the scribe discovered a big secret.
The secret is related to the ancient station of the Griffin Knights that has never been discovered, or an ancient ruin.
Those pirates kept going to the city of Boshi and driving boats to and from the rivers on the mainland just to explore this station.
The ancient Kingdom of Pendor once ruled the entire continent—to this day, the continent is still named after Pendor.
The Griffin Knights were once the national knights of the ancient Pende Kingdom, and they were also one of the strongest knights on this continent.
But it is said that one hundred and fifty years ago, under the conspiracy of the Jatu Raiders and Duke Alfred of the Lion, all the Griffin Knights died in the battle in Changhe Town.
After the demise of the Griffin Knights, the Duke of the Lion claimed the throne, destroyed all the forces loyal to the Pendor royal family, established the Kingdom of the Lion, and the Knights of the Lion who supported him became the National Knights.
The Griffin Knights were declared an illegal armed force by the Lion Kingdom, and the black-and-white griffon emblem with countless legends was never seen again in the continent.
And their mysterious location has been buried by the years and no one knows about it.
The Griffin Knights, a secret base left by such a legendary force, how many treasures will be hidden there?
Just thinking about it makes me feel very attractive.
And those pirates, after a long period of hard work, confirmed the approximate location of the station—probably at the source of a river near Changhe Town.
But there are countless rivers near Changhe Town, and they haven't found them yet, so they went to Boshi City again, hoping to find out if there was any overlooked information from the scribe.
Li Ang understands the mentality of pirates who are eager to find treasures or obtain a secret settlement, but he scorns this behavior - spending a lot of manpower and material resources to explore thousands of miles for a legendary 'mysterious settlement', is this a pirate or an explorer?
Simply not doing his job properly...
He just silently wrote down the matter and would talk about it later when he encountered a suitable opportunity.
The most important thing right now is to go to Lion City to register as a pioneer lord.
This team, which has gained a lot of trophies, now has a new look, and its morale and spirit are much better than before.
But Leon had to set off alone one step ahead - he had to arrive in Lion City before the Duke of Alma and complete the registration at the House of Lords.
This is Anson's suggestion.
As a noble child, even if he is not from the Lion Kingdom, Anson still understands the behavior of the nobles better than Li Ang or Klose.
Li Ang can still be regarded as a civilian at best. The knighthood his father belonged to has been destroyed, and may even have been declared an illegal knighthood long ago - otherwise, he would not have kept silent all his life.
If he arrived in Lion City after the Duke of Alma or the illegitimate son, then the pioneering baron certificate in his hand would most likely be declared invalid under a few gossips from the Archduke of Alma - King Ulric must also be very
I hope so, after all, there are too many nobles, but the territory has never been enough.
But this kind of matter usually cannot be solved by a letter or an order from the Duke. He must also talk to the king face to face, and the king will issue the order. After all, the certificate issued by the House of Lords represents the authority of the king.
Moreover, usually this kind of anger will not lead to any targeted disaster consequences - at least no one will be sent to intercept and kill him. After all, he is not deeply offended, it is just that he failed to realize the illegitimate child's wish, and it is not really a hatred.
Therefore, before the Duke of Alma’s convoy returns to Lion City, there will probably be no problem in registering as a pioneer lord in the House of Lords.
Those who really want his life should be the people of the Red Brotherhood, so the further away from chaotic places like the West Coast, the safer it is.
Li Ang felt that what Anson said made sense, so he rode Alice on the road alone and flew through the night.
They agreed to regroup near Changhe Town in order to purchase supplies in Changhe Town.
Li Ang was not worried at all that his subordinates would abandon him and run away - he could see them in the team panel.
This half-baked system that cannot see the basic attributes of characters does not compromise the functionality of the team panel.
Alice was indeed a good horse. At noon on the third day, Li Ang crossed thousands of miles and arrived outside the Lion City.
Lion City is the capital of the Lion Kingdom.
But its former name was Kavala - this was the name of the founder of the ancient Pende Kingdom.
It was once the capital of the ancient kingdom of Pandor.
The city wall is fifteen meters high - this is a majestic city that is almost impossible to conquer from the outside.
This is indeed the case. This city has changed hands three times, and each time it was attacked from the inside...
Although the Kingdom of Lion has been established for 150 years, from a distance, the outline of a huge gryphon relief can still be vaguely seen on the walls of this majestic city - it was just deliberately flattened, and then painted on its surface.
The shape of the lion with fangs and claws has been redrawn.
But no matter what, the security here is much better than that in Wulong City...
At least I didn't see any sneaky little gangs on the streets.
The guards at the city gate did not stop Li Ang, or even asked him to stop and check - they may have thought that the person who could ride the golden-maned horse Alice into the city must be a nobleman, and there was no need to ask for trouble.
This is also the main reason why Li Ang has always wanted this horse. It is not because of Alice's excellent speed and endurance, but because it sells well.
Li Ang ran wildly along the wide street.
The destination is naturally the House of Nobles in the Lion City, the official body that oversees all noble fiefdom matters in the Lion City.
The House of Nobles is actually not easy to find, which is very untraditional - it is said that the Pende House of Nobility more than a hundred years ago was the tallest building in the center of the city, and its high dome can be seen from anywhere in the city.
But since the first generation of Lion King, Duke Alfred of Lion, stole the country and became king, the tallest independent building in the territory of Lion has since become the private property of his family - and now it is also Ulrik's.
The king's private property.
As for the new House of Lords, it is located on the branch road next to the King's Road - hidden in a deep alley. It is basically no different from the apartments of the minor nobles.
Perhaps this is because there were a large number of documents hidden in the Pendor House of Lords in the past and they were afraid to be made public;
Perhaps it is to make officials more approachable and reduce corruption;
But Li Ang felt that this was probably because the Lion King did not want taller buildings to appear in the country to prevent anyone from being 'above them'.
After all, the reason why the country thief became the Lion King was because he was unwilling to be inferior to others.
After looking at the towering and magnificent building in the center of the city, which was more than thirty meters high, Li Ang shook his head and asked all the way along the King's Avenue, and finally found the gate of the House of Nobles.
Carved above the main entrance is a goddess with a solemn expression, wearing a robe, holding a spear in one hand, a code in the other, and an owl standing on her shoulder.
This is the main god of the ancient Pende people, and it is also the official belief of the Lion Kingdom today - the god of order and enthusiasm, Eunomia.
The statue is exquisite, but somewhat incongruous - Eunomia's chest was originally supposed to have a pendant representing the sequence of the sun and the moon, but this statue replaced it with a lion's head.
Even the image of the main god has been changed... This ability to flatter is obviously extremely high.
