Struggle in the Steam Age

Chapter 177: The treasure hunt begins

After the battle commendation ceremony was over, the special envoy from the Federation began to issue the Golden White Eagle Medal. Different from the way most medals are worn, this is a medal hung around the neck with a purple tie.

For historical reasons, this medal retains its original appearance. Since this emblem was born almost at the same time as the Federation, the shape of this medal, which is only the size of a palm, is very simple. It is just cast on a round gold plate with a white head surrounded by oak leaves and vines with stars in its mouth. Eagle image. However, the significance of this medal will not be inferior because of its slightly rough style.

Probably because this medal is very important, the envoy gave Lawrence the medal and began to speak endlessly, and Lawrence could only stand behind him with a smile as a background board. Fortunately, the envoy finally finished his speech after half an hour.

Seeing that the citizens below seemed a little drowsy because of the long speeches and the rising sun, so when it was Lawrence's turn to give a speech, he simply finished the speech after three minutes. This naturally received a wave of applause and cheers.

Then it was time to celebrate. The citizens began to sing and dance in the square. Some small vendors also began to sell a variety of food and gadgets. Lawrence and others entered the banquet hall of the city hall for a reception.

Cocktail party, cold meal take-out party. The whole celebration lasted until the sun was about to set in the afternoon. After returning to his residence, Syfiel took off his high heels and sat on the sofa.

"I really don't fit high heels, I feel my feet are sore." She complained, "I swear I would rather go and fight with a brood of stinky kobolds for a whole day than attend this so-called upper class party again. Up."

"I seem to have heard you say that you learned this kind of stuff most of the time when you were in a girls' school." Lawrence teased Syfiel, who was sitting on the opposite sofa and seemed not a lady at all. To, "Why do I think you seem to be bored with this kind of stuff?"

"Mastering a certain skill is completely different from whether you like it or not." Perhaps realizing that his image is not elegant now, So Saifei quickly sat up straight and said seriously. "You know, it's different from ordinary higher education. The education of girls' schools is more focused on cultivating women's social etiquette and female skills, such as musical instrument playing, painting, and certain languages."

"If I had not met my master, I believe that the life of the girls’ school would drive me crazy. Think about it. According to the rules of the girls’ school, students are only allowed to eat light, hot food, and not to watch and All kinds of literary works that are considered unsuitable for us. Fortunately, once you become an extraordinary person, you can avoid these terrible restrictions."

"Sounds really bad." After listening to these words, Lawrence could be regarded as understanding Seifer's thoughts. For a tomboy-like girl like her, she doesn't like social occasions full of red tape by nature, not to mention disliking it after several years of depression in a girls' school, which may directly turn into disgust.

"You should have told me in advance." Thinking of this, Lawrence said apologetically to Syfiel. "If I know you hate this kind of occasion, I won't ask you to go."

"I just hate this kind of occasion. It doesn't mean that I don't want to participate with you." Saifei shrugged very freely. "On such an important occasion, you must bring a female companion for etiquette. Yes, otherwise it would be too rude. And I am also very happy to receive your invitation to share this honor with you."

"Mr. Madam, dinner is ready." As soon as Syfiel's voice fell, the voice of the maid calling everyone to go downstairs for dinner came from the door, so they soon ended the discussion and went downstairs for dinner. After all, although food was provided on those occasions before, Lawrence, who was the focus of everyone's attention, would definitely not be able to eat much, so now they are naturally hungry and need a big meal.

"I think many people sent you all kinds of invitations and invitations today. Which one do you plan to go to the party tomorrow?" When everyone finished dinner and began to enjoy the after-dinner drink, Sefil took a sip Asked about his cup of tea.

"I won't go to any of them." Lawrence said seriously, "Most of them are boring people who follow the trend and hope to raise their party and party level by inviting us. And a small part really hopes. They invited us, but their status makes it inappropriate for us to go to anyone first."

"And didn't we come to this city this time to hunt for treasures? Now we have all the things at hand resolved, and the city has lifted the state of martial law in the previous war. Just in time we can set off."

"Are you still going to continue your treasure hunt?" Cog looked at Lawrence and the others in surprise, "Like I said, the so-called treasure in Lakeside Town is probably because the locals occasionally killed a few cultists and captured some. From the east to the west, it is passed on from generation to generation, plus the illusion that the various stories that the locals now make up for tourism are mixed together."

"What you said is very reasonable, but since we are here, we can't leave without even looking at the destination." Saifeier gave a very reasonable reason. "After all, we came here across half of the federation for this thing. It would be a shame if we didn't even look at it."

"Okay, okay. What you said makes sense." Kogg said after letting his magic robot fill up the teacup for himself. "It just so happens that one of my colleagues is from the lakeside town. He told me something. A story that only circulates locally, and now I can just share it with you—"

"You said that what Cogg told us before and last night is inaccurate?" Saifei asked with a small face looking at Lawrence. This time came the morning of the next day. Lawrence and Syfiel appeared on a grassy hill in travel clothes with large bags of luggage, and there was a quiet place below the hill. An unmanned town near the lake.

"I think it should be true." Lawrence nodded earnestly and said, "If you simply kill three or five supernatural beings of the highest apprentice level and intercept jewels worth up to 10,000 yuan, it is indeed in each church. This small-scale conflict will not be recorded."

Sure enough, locals often have some secrets that outsiders don’t know. For example, the information brought by Kogg yesterday is the specific situation of the treasure that was discovered that year~www.wuxiahere.com~ and this perfectly explains why Lawrence No relevant information was found at St. Gutenberg’s Cathedral before.

"The only thing I find strange is that the last stronghold of such an organization shouldn't be too weak, even if it's a bit too close. The wealth intercepted or the extraordinary people killed back then are really not worthy of such an organization." Lawrence wrinkled. He frowned and said, "So I personally feel like come over and take a look."

"You are right. If your map is true, there should indeed be some secrets hidden here." Since he decided to take an adventure together, Lawrence naturally gave the treasure map and the relevant information collected before to the game. Phil has seen it. After seeing these things, Saifeier also thought that there should be a huge treasure hidden here.

Because the order of martial law has just been lifted, there are also some completely broken up murlocs wandering around the lake. Therefore, this small town that provides tourism and vacation resources for Huguang City has not recovered from the hustle and bustle of the past. Only some local residents carried weapons with them to clean up the traces of the murlocs.

Probably because this is not the main attack direction of the murlocs, and the residents here also did some defensive work before the evacuation. So apart from some slight destruction and loss of wealth, the whole town did not lose much. Of course, this is also related to the fact that fish people basically do not set fire.
