Vol 5 Chapter 50

"Antinina, come and open it." Brando looked at the box and said.

Antinina froze, and then came over. She looked at her lord master carefully, her heart moved, and then she nodded gently.

She put her hand on the cold iron box, restraining the excitement in her heart, chanting the mantra whispering, spitting byte by byte from her soft lips, low and clear, the lock of the box It seemed to be held up by an invisible hand, then slipped away quietly, and finally landed on the ground with a sound. She took a breath and slowly opened the box. Below was a layer of waterproof tarpaulin. Below the tarpaulin was divided into three tightly packed packages. The outer skin of the package was also the same tarpaulin. On the package was a The letter, the wax on the letter, also had the emblem they had seen before.

Antitina opened the envelope only after getting a hint, and read the letter carefully. The content of the letter is similar to that of the will—if anyone else finds the estate, I hope the discoverer can divide it into one. Third, he can inherit the richest part of it, and the remaining two meager parts and some miscellaneous things are left to Antitina and Sadie, so that they can at least rely on their lives, and they are also a chat to remember. There are still some words left to Antitina in the letter, in the hope that she can be happy and forgive him his irresponsible father-Miss Staff read the last sentence and held the letter paper for a long time without saying a word. She bowed her head, her thick eyelashes trembling slightly like feathers.

Brando and Freya glanced at each other behind her. The future Valkyrie was full of sympathy, and she almost wanted to share the sadness in the mind of Miss Ace. soft.

It took a while for Antitina to drop the stationery. She looked fine, but her face was terribly pale: "Master, let's open these packages."

Brando looked at her like this and couldn't bear to talk, but just nodded. He suddenly felt that he was really right this time. He thought that the lady had long forgotten the haze of the past, but did not expect these sorrows in her heart. Buried so deep. Antinina opened the largest package silently, and the silver and silver light immediately illuminated the faces of the three people present. Inside were neatly arranged gold bars and silver ingots, and some jewellery and stacked deeds, The title deed, she quickly estimated, and concluded that at least more than 100,000 Tor's property, which is a lot of money for a small noble family-but this money is his father's preparation to discover the estate Of course, Antitina silently set it aside and opened the second package again.

The second package was the same, but it was about half the amount of the previous package—this was left to her mother. There was also a letter with the signature of Sadie, her mother. Instead of opening the envelope, Antinina looked at the letter for a moment, then lowered it gently. Then she picked up the third package-the smallest package, probably the size of a vanity box, and this package was left to her.

She felt almost suffocated while holding the parcel, but still held her breath carefully to open it. She separated the layers of oiled paper into a delicate walnut box. Opening the box again, the ring was covered with a ring and a thin necklace on the velvet cloth. The moment she saw the necklace, tears could not help but roll down along her cheeks.

Brando and Freya looked at the necklace, but they were silent. The crystal pendant of the necklace was a beautiful record crystal. When the box was opened, the crystal emitted light, reflecting a man. A woman stood side by side, the man had black hair, and there was a slight outline of Antitina on his face. He smiled softly at Antitina:

"Anna, if one day you open this box by yourself, I believe that I am already dead at this time. My beloved daughter, my irresponsible father, dare not ask for your forgiveness, but please believe that you My father's life is the pursuit of the most justice and justice in this world. Because I know that the person who pays and bears responsibility for this world can never be a sinner in his population-Anna, I hope that one day, you You can use your clear eyes to see all the truth in this world, instead of being blinded by falsehood, because you are so intelligent and the pride of my life-"

"This ring is a token of my engagement with your mother. After obtaining your mother's consent, I will leave it here and stay here. I hope that I can leave it to you one day to witness your happiness, your favorite. The other half. "

"Anna," said a gentle woman who was like eighths of Antitina, she smiled slightly: "may one day you find your own happiness."

"The liar ..." Antitina suddenly sobbed, as if her depressed feeling had finally erupted at this moment, like the flood and rushing of a dyke, the whimper of the injured beast finally turned into a wailing cry, Brando started crying I have never seen my quiet and calm lady-assistant showing such a side, helpless like a child, her weak shoulders shaking, except for crying, as if she could not make any more noise.

Brando is also choked. Some emotions in this world can always touch the heart and hit the softest place in the heart, and the family relationship is undoubtedly the one that will always be constant-no matter in his eyes How strong, indifferent, as if I haven't remembered everything in the past, but in the presence of my parents, Antinina still cried like a child-not biting her lips, tears swirling in her eyes, Instead, she completely lost her voice, weeping, and screaming like a beast.

Freya turned her head and wiped her eyes with her hands.

I don't know how long.

Finally, the clerk finally sorted out her feelings. She blushed and tried not to watch Freya and Brando as if they were afraid to make them read a joke. "Lord Lord, I have checked it carefully. There does not seem to be Lord Darus's relics in it." As soon as she spoke, her face couldn't help turning redder, because her voice was so hoarse that it almost seemed like someone was talking.

Brando looked at her with some concern and asked, "It's okay, Antitina."

Antinina shook her head and breathed a sigh of relief. She was in a mess, and for a moment said whether it was really okay or not. In any case, after getting what her father left her, it seemed that the hatred of the father who had never left her again seemed not so strong. She thought silently, maybe when the mother was holding her hand on the sickbed, she already knew where her father had gone, they always knew, because the father had never deceived his mother, they just joined together to cheat She just stopped. She smiled, then shook her head slightly. Although the tears were still on her cheeks, the lady assistant smiled very cutely.

Brando was finally relieved. He looked at Freya, and the kind-hearted Butch girl was also relieved.

There was no Darus relic in the box, as opposed to the letter, which was both expected and unexpected by Brando. He thought for a moment before answering: "Antinina, your father can't guarantee that the person who unearthed his legacy will be you, nor can he guarantee that the person who unearthed will keep his promise to give the inheritance to your mother and daughter, so he It is unlikely that such important things will be placed directly in the heritage. "

Antitina nodded.

"But he wrote clearly in the letter ..." Freya asked a little puzzled: "It was a private letter, didn't he need to lie, didn't he?" She immediately responded by herself, saying: "I understand He doesn't need to put the relics of Lord Darus in his heritage, but he can leave clues on the heritage— "

Brando gave her a surprised look: "... how suddenly you became smart."

Freya stared at him with gritted teeth.

"If my father left me a message in the legacy, I think it can only be in my parcel." Antitina thought for a moment and replied.

"But isn't it possible in your mother's package?" Freya asked again.

Antitina shook her head: "My mother's package is basically rich, and my father will surely estimate the greed of the human heart, and the only legacy left to me is almost all debris, not to be noticed. And before I also checked my mother's package, and that letter, there was nothing worthy of note. "

"Antinina, you guessed it early in the morning, your mind is really good." Freya was a little envious. She was never the smartest one at Cavaliers Academy. It can even be said to be a bit stupid, but for the real A gifted person, she has only envy and no jealousy. Her Royal Highness told her that her father was the most talented knight lord of Eruin last time, which made her very distressed, why she was so clumsy.

The staff lady smiled slightly.

"Have you checked?" Brando asked again.

Antitina nodded: "I checked the necklace and ring, as well as inside and outside the box, and found no clues." She thought for a moment, and replied, "I don't think my father would make it so important. Information is left in a conspicuous place, and only by taking it apart, I'm afraid it's clear where the clue is. "

"But that is the last relic left by your father--"

"It's okay, Lord Lord," Antitina replied softly: "This is also my father's wish, and he will not blame us for it, let alone if we miss someone, we should be in our hearts, not entangled in these Foreign things. "

She opened the box, but Brando held her hand. "Come on," he said, "show me the necklace."

Antinina gave a slight glance, looked up at the Lord Lord, then nodded, and put the necklace in his hand. Brando took the necklace and examined it carefully, then he held the pendant of the necklace and turned it slightly. For a moment, the pendant really became loose. He lowered the pendant in a certain direction, then carefully lifted it towards the light in the room, and then took a piece of paper wrapped from it.

There was no lag in his movements, as if he had thought about all of this in advance, and had long guessed that the slip was hidden in a necklace, and looked at Freya and Antitina next to him completely.

"Lord ... Lord?" Antitina opened her mouth slightly, almost thinking that her Lord Lord was really an all-knowing deity.

Recorded crystals have a physical property, and their crystal structure is hollow. Brando first thought of this when examining this necklace. He tried to remove the pendant, but he did not expect success in one fell swoop. It's also a coincidence. He exchanged the necklace with Antitina, and couldn't help but smile and talk about the reason. Antitina was surprised, but she still looked at her lord very respectfully. She was doing magic guided research. Yes, I am most familiar with all kinds of crystals, but the record crystal is a partial door, because this is an artificial magic crystal, and there are very few who really understand its physical characteristics-only his lord master, who is almost unheard of, can only Such a heavy lifting.

The three opened the note, but found that some strange symbols were drawn on the note, which were like graffiti for children. For the first time, Brando and Antitina did not understand what it was, but instead It was Freya who said 'ah' softly and blurted out, "Ah, this is a military secret."

"Military secrets?" Brando froze a little. He knew that there were often secret messages in the military that needed to be transmitted. Every country had a set of secret symbols changed from ancient runes. He was very familiar with the military secrets of Eruin. Whether it was the 'Ansen's Secret' 30 years ago or the new 'New Secret' after the upheaval of Frost, he could read it, but these were obviously not any of them. He looked at Freya around him with a questioning look. The future Valkyrie nodded affirmatively to him:

"This is a Cruz military secret, and it's an old cipher written half a century ago. I happened to have studied at King's College."

When she said that, Antitina also responded. "Yes," Miss Chancellor replied as if remembering something. "When I was young, my father taught me some of these secrets, but he didn't tell me what it was."

Brando didn't expect Freya to have learned the Cruzian secrets, he immediately asked: "Can you read them?"

Freya read it carefully before nodding her head: "It's not a big problem, Brando, it seems like a map ..."

...

"what are these?"

There are three things in front of Freya, a pale gray crystal, some russet stones, and a papyrus map with only a few lines drawn out-all three are taken out of the same iron box Yes, this box was taken from the floor of an old house in the Hood District after she deciphered the cipher text-and of course, she didn't know anything.

Brando tried to get Di An to spend some money to smuggle Antitina's father's heritage from the cemetery. He cast elemental guardian spells on the boxes so that those people could not open the boxes; And there are many 'lives' in and out of the cemetery. Most of the wizards who secretly practice black magic will not carry the corpses with great fanfare, so it is not surprising that they used the boxes. Brando had originally Worrying would be skeptical, but he still underestimated the extent to which these things were commonplace in the eyes of grave robbers.

After getting a sum of money from Di An's hand, the gravekeeper patted his chest and promised him not to send out such a box. Even if he wanted to carry a few coffins out of the graveyard, there was absolutely no problem. Then he didn't know where to find some sloppy people. In Brando's eyes, those guys behaved somewhat like the Brotherhood of Rogues. In short, with the help of these people, the boxes were smuggled smoothly. It came out without any twists and turns. The person carrying the box did not know how many such jobs for many years. The box full of gold and silver was like moving a stone in their hands. There was not much at all from beginning to end. Have a look.

Brando couldn't help but fortunately, fortunately, he was smart enough to bless a wind wing on the box. Otherwise, with the experience of these people, I am afraid that there will be a problem with the weight.

It was almost evening after they had shipped everything back to the manor, and went to Hood to retrieve the last relic of Antinina's father—or rather the relic of Swordmaster Darus. Brando opened the box in his study, took out the contents one by one, and then the above scene appeared.

But compared to Freya's confusion, Brando and Antitina looked slightly different.

"Lord Lord, these stones ..." Miss Chancellor keenly remembered: "I seemed to have seen it when I was young. When my father bought it from a merchant for the first time, it seemed as if he had been treasured. Since then he has been in each The pieces were bought everywhere. I remember that he had been playing with them for quite some time. "

"Did he tell you anything?" Brando asked, staring at the gray crystal without looking back.

Antitina recalled it, but shook her head: "I was too young at that time, faintly remembering how many times my father had said, it seemed to mean something like the key to which these pieces of stone lead, but later these pieces of stone It gradually disappeared from my vision. I thought my father had lost interest in them, but he didn't expect him to save them. "

"Antinina, you haven't thought about it, these things are actually related to my grandfather," Brando replied.

"I'm afraid yes. According to the letter, this box contains the relics of Lord Darus, as well as fragments of what the father called the" pictures "-are these stones?" Antitina asked in confusion.

But Brando did not answer.

He stared deadly at the gray gem.
