Treasure Hunters, Sail the Blue Sea

Chapter 448 Drinking from the Cup
"Is this what you're looking for?"

Lucilia dusted herself off and climbed onto Alka's shoulder and asked.Alka looked at the gray cup in his hand and nodded.

"The wine glass that was once favored by Emperor Saraland has actually fallen into such a state." Lucilia couldn't help but said as she looked at the dust and dirt on the glass.

Alka handed the cup to Lucilia and then looked at the scene around her.

The corpse in front of him had been dead for who knows how long. The clothes on his body and most of the things he carried had already turned into ashes with the passage of time.

However, you can still see the digging tools that have been completely embroidered into a pile next to it.

At the breach in the wall, you can still see a tool bag placed there. Of course, the tools inside have been damaged long ago.

Xia Detti, who was walking around, also came over, followed closely by Simon.There really isn't much to see around here, it's just an ordinary tomb.

"Is this a tomb robber?" Xia Daiti asked, looking at the corpse.

Mainly based on the surrounding scene, this is too obvious.

Alka nodded.

"I don't know how many years ago, maybe before the Saraland Empire was destroyed, this tomb robber came here."

"I used tools to cut open the stone wall of the tomb and entered the tomb chamber. Then I used tools to cut open the stone coffin.

The protective mechanism of the sarcophagus should have been triggered, so he died. It might have been poison gas or something. "

Because there were no external injuries on the bones of the tomb robber.

Alka squatted slightly, looked inside from the damaged part of the sarcophagus, and saw a white light inside.

In other words, the white lights seen on the map should all be in these sarcophagi and belong to funerary objects.

Only the less valuable ones were left outside.

The instant hourglass that Alka obtained before should be relatively well preserved.

The funerary objects surrounding these older tombs have long been damaged.

They should all be the things that the deceased loved during his lifetime, plus this is a family that is not big or small.The things I like should be relatively valuable toys.

"But why is this wine glass on this tomb robber?" Xia Daiti asked with some confusion.

If this wine cup is as Alka said, it is the cup from which Emperor Salalan drinks.

No matter how you think about it, it is impossible to be on this tomb robber.

They still don't know that the drinking cup is actually a Holy Grail-level treasure.

"This is unknown, let it sink into the long river of history." Alka said with a smile.

How many coincidences and processes are there to allow such a treasure to fall on the tomb robber.

"Then these sarcophagi..." Simon pointed to the coffins that had not been broken.

Alka shook his head: "Forget it, this is not a very rich family, and the funeral objects don't necessarily have to be too valuable.

These protective mechanisms may not be completely gone yet, forget it, we have got what we need. "

Hearing this, several people nodded and said nothing more.

If it were just an ordinary burial object, it would really have no value to them.

They went all the way back to the hole they had just come out of, and then climbed up again from the dug hole.After coming up, they buried the soil again and sealed the entrance of the cave.

After coming out, Alka held the cup in his hand. An aqua blue water sign appeared next to him, and a stream of water began to surround the cup.

Alka loosened the cup, and the water flow formed a spiral-like wash basin around the cup and began to spirally clean it.

Looking at this scene, Xia Detti couldn't help but said: "This should be regarded as an ancient cultural relic, right? Although it is a magic item, it has been so long. Such a violent cleaning may damage it. .

At that time, it will not be so easy to sell for sufficient value. "

As the appraiser and seller of most of the treasures on the ship, she must give a reminder at this time.

Hearing this, Alka turned to look at her and said with a smile: "Don't worry, nothing will happen. This is not an ordinary magic item... this is a treasure."

"Um?!!"

Several people around him turned their heads and stared at him with wide eyes. He didn't say such a thing just now.

"treasure?"

"That's right, it's a treasure, a Holy Grail-level treasure."

Simon frowned when she heard this, and she immediately thought of a big flaw: "That shouldn't be true, if it is a treasure.

Emperor Saraland couldn't just let this treasure be lost like this, could he?The connection between the held treasure and its owner is so deep that it cannot be taken away without being discovered by Emperor Sararan.

Not to mention being carried by a tomb robber or even taken into another tomb. This is too strange. "

Simon first discovered the problem and said.

When Alka heard this question, he just shrugged helplessly and said, "I don't know why. I only know that this thing is indeed a treasure."

As he spoke, the turbid water fell into the soil beneath his feet.The completely cleaned drinking cup was taken by Alka and placed in front of everyone.

This cup is just as described.

There is a gemstone about the size of a thumb inlaid below, and then carved on it is a picture of a fat man holding a banquet and drinking wine on the table, surrounded by various men and women dressed in flashy clothes, dancing and drinking.

The overall structure should be forged from gold, and the cup as a whole looks very luxurious and exaggerated.

If it weren't for the relief carving on it depicting the Bacchus banquet of the Golden Age, this cup would really have a rustic and luxurious style.

In other words, the former Bacchus was just an exaggerated, rustic, extravagant god.

Alka put her magic power into the cup.

Three of the treasures in his possession were rejected, but the cup was rejected by four.

Of course, Alka can also use his scepter-level treasure to suppress the cup and then use it forcefully.

But this makes no sense, it's like using a normal magic item.

It also takes some effort to control.

"Did you not expect that you could obtain a Holy Grail-level treasure so easily?"

Xia Detti took the cup and looked at it and couldn't help but say.

After hearing this, Alka looked up at the sky and could only say that it was very relaxing for them.

To anyone else, this treasure might have been buried beneath it forever.Unless one day someone digs into the tomb below.

Or there are new tomb robbers or treasure hunters looking for these tombs, and then they get unexpected gains.

But for Alka, treasures like this, which are all outside and buried somewhere due to accidents, are the easiest to obtain.

This kind of unexpectedly lost treasure is no different to Alka than picking up money.

At most, it's just because the missing places are different, so it requires more effort.

There is no deliberate hiding, no protective rituals for storage, and no protection by powerful creatures.

Just buried somewhere that may never be known.

For Alka, it’s about picking up money.

"It's a pity, we don't need Holy Grail-level treasures anymore." Looking at the cup, Simon said with some regret.

"Take it out and sell it. This is a treasure, and it is also a drinking cup used by Emperor Saraland. Believe me, it will definitely sell for a higher price than a Holy Grail-level treasure."

Xia Detti looked at the cup in his hand and said with a smile.

At this time, the sky suddenly darkened, and the curtain of darkness covered the sky.

Seeing this situation, everyone quickly returned to the camp.

When everyone returned to the camp.

Jason looked at Alka and the others and said, "Anything gained? I actually stayed outside for a whole day."

That’s about 20 hours.

Hearing this, Alka shook the cup in his hand.

"Is this the one?"

"Yes, the cup from which to drink."

Everyone in the camp gathered around them. They didn't expect that they would just go out for a day, saying they wanted to explore the road first.

As a result, Alka and the others got it directly.The process of exploring the path directly transformed into a journey of harvest.

"Tell me how you got this thing." Ululius asked curiously.

Xia Detti recounted their experiences today, while Alka placed the cup on the table for everyone to watch.

He opened the map himself and looked at the dimmed golden light spot.

【Drinking Cup】

[Difficulty: Tomb Raider]

【Famousness: 66.5w】

[Treasure information: The wine glass used by the founding emperor of the Saraland Empire and the savior.

For a person who occupies such a high position, he is also a lover of fine wine.This is the imperial king's favorite item.

Left in a tomb that did not belong to him.

This is a treasure that can enhance the taste of the wine poured into the glass, and add special effects to the wine by sublimating it.This function can be used without mastering the treasure. 】

Wait, Alka looked at the last piece of introductory information that appeared after obtaining the treasure.

In other words, what is mentioned above is a function that can improve the taste of the wine in the cup and add special effects to the wine.The treasure can automatically produce such an effect without mastering the treasure.

Seeing this effect, Alka did not think that it was fake.

I patted my head and suddenly realized.If that's the case, what happened before would make sense.

In other words, this treasure is probably not suitable for Emperor Saraland, but he discovered this function, so he has been using this treasure.

Because this treasure can exert its essential ability without mastering it.

It's like if the image of the treasure is a sword, and this sword is extremely strong and sharp.So even if you don't master the treasure and don't use its special abilities, it is still a sword that can be wielded and is sharp.

You can even use the sword's properties to block enemy attacks, as it's extremely difficult to damage.

This is also why weapon-type treasures, or shield-type treasures, are very precious.Because of their appearance and the characteristics of the treasure, they themselves will be strengthened differently.

What determines whether the value of this treasure will continue to rise now lies in the special effect it can bring to the wine poured into the cup. What is it specifically?

"So this is actually a treasure? You just went out for a day walk and then brought back a treasure?" Jason asked with wide eyes as Xia Detti told the story.

Xia Daiti nodded: "Although it is not easy to believe, it is indeed the case."

"So what's the difference between this and picking up money? When are you going to pick it up? How can I be so lucky?" Jason asked a little incomprehensibly.

Hearing this, a silver snake appeared in Alka's hand, shook it in front of Jason, then bounced it in front of him and held it in his hand.

Alka, who was holding the silver snake, couldn't help but nodded: "Well... luck has gotten better again."

Looking at this scene, Jason felt like he had eaten a fly.

"Damn you!"

Materissa looked at the cup in the middle with some pity.

"We already have no shortage of Holy Grail-level treasures. Excessive mastery will become a burden for us." It's a bit regretful to say it.

"No, this treasure is different."

Alka said, dragging the cup in front of him, and then looked at Juanlu: "Did you bring any wine?"

Juanlu nodded and spread his hands.Suddenly a wine bottle appeared in his hand.

The embroidered wine bottle contains a green liquid inside, which is a bit like vegetable juice.

But a little clear.

Alka took it, opened the sealed wooden cork, and then poured the wine inside into the wine glass in front of him.

The green wine fell into the glass.

Everyone looked at the wine in the cup, and there seemed to be nothing strange about it.

Alka blinked, but he didn't see the treasure functioning, and he didn't feel any difference after sniffing it. After thinking about it, he picked up the cup and took a sip.

He had drank this wine before, so the wine in the glass had not changed much.

Need magic?

Thinking like this, Alka reached out to hold the wine glass. Just when the magic power was about to flow through, Alka hurriedly stopped.

Reanalyze the magic power that you are about to pour out, completely remove the mixed magic power from various treasures, and turn it into the purest magic power.

This is a skill to use, and you need to have a very high degree of control over your own magic power to be able to complete such an operation.

Otherwise, your magic power will involuntarily take on the aura of treasure.

This technique belongs to the more difficult category.

The pure magic power that was stripped and cleaned poured into the wine glass, and the wine glass really absorbed the magic power.seems to inspire the effect therein.

The drink in the glass changed.

It was still green, but it exuded a faint forest-like fragrance.

The main focus of this drink is the feeling of returning to nature. The fragrance of this drink floats out and lingers around everyone's nostrils.

Take a deep breath, as if returning to nature.

In addition, this drink also exudes a faint cyan light.

"Changed? In other words, this treasure has its own effect?" Xia Daiti asked while looking at the cup.

Alka nodded: "Yes, that's it."

"The smell of this wine is really attractive." Juanlu couldn't help but said.

"I'll try it first." Alka picked up the cup with a smile, and took a sip.

The refreshing aroma of alcohol bursts into your mouth, just like the natural breath of spring in the forest pouring into your mouth and into your heart.

It was as if the whole body exuded vitality inexplicably.

"call……"

Exhaling, Alka opened her eyes.

In addition to improving the taste of the drink, Alka could also feel that the drink had improved his physical fitness.

It seems like a permanent improvement, but it's very, very subtle.

At the same time, it seemed that the fatigue on his body was washed away and his body was rejuvenated.

"You also try it."

As Alka said, he handed over the wine glass, and everyone drank the wine in one gulp, feeling the same feeling.

"The taste and effect seem to be related to the characteristics of the wine inside. Let's switch to another wine." Juanlu said, who finally drank, and then changed to another wine.

It's a strong drink.

Alka nodded, picked up the spirit and poured it into it. The spirit was as pure and transparent as water.

When the spirit was poured in and the magic power poured in again, the very strong aroma of wine floated out. There was no other smell, just the pure aroma of wine.

Alka took a slight sip, and the flaming wine poured into his throat, as if it was about to ignite.

It was like taking a sip of lava flowing into my lungs.

Alka's skin was visibly red.

A wave of heat even came out of his skin, and Alka opened his eyes.

"It's so hot."

He raised his right hand and clenched his fist so hard that he could see blood vessels bursting out one by one.

"In addition to improving the weak strength, it also strengthens the strength more. It should be temporary. And it can withstand the cold winter."

Then this wine glass became interesting, and everyone began to test it one by one.See what effects different wines can produce in the glass.

You must know that Juanlu has all kinds of wine on his body, and there are also many types of wine stored on their ship.

In the end, Materissa even took out her own medicinal wine, which can also be called a medicine.

But it is made using the brewing method, so it should be considered a bar.
