Chapter 39 1.39 Harvest Season
The land area of Northumbria is not very large. The ship sailed along the coastline for a night, and before the sun rose. Several people had returned to the seaside cave where the "Sunken City" was teleported.
The three Viking warriors who stayed behind carried the broken sword and axe dropped by the "Fallen Titan" together with the [Blood-colored Creator Stone Sculpture] hidden in the cave onto the ship.
On the other side, Sat returned to the monastery after getting off the ship.
In the middle of the night. 10 Viking warriors carried silver coins, gold bars, and escorted six teachers from the church school out of the monastery. They placed the axe under the head of Archbishop Francis and threatened other monks that if they heard any shouts, they would cut the Archbishop's throat.
After the guards at the door were cleanly chopped down, a warning order sounded in the city. However, it was too late. The Viking warriors had withdrawn to the ship under the cover of night. Loki's companions have been pirates for seven or eight years. They are familiar with these tasks and do not need to be taught.
Taking advantage of the vast night, the ship set sail.
There was no cloud in the night sky, and the stars pointed out the way home for the pirates. Loki sat in the captain's cabin and kept grabbing handfuls of heavy silver coins with his hands and letting them slide through his fingers.
Sitting opposite him was Jerome. After thinking again and again, he finally decided to take this man back to Viking.
First of all, his intuition told him that this man was not too aggressive. Although he was a powerful monk who had half a foot into the "high sequence strongman", his overly crude martial arts made him stretched in actual combat.
His combat power was not as good as that of Old Walder, and I am afraid that even most of the pirates around him could not match it. Even if he wanted to rebel, his ability was within Loki's acceptable range.
Compared with this worry, he valued more that this man could use holy light to illuminate the second half of the ancient book in the hands of the "gatekeeper"!
Loki clearly understood that the greatest gain from his voyage was the inheritance of the "Blood Creator" that he got by chance.
And all of this was given to him by the ancient book in the hands of old Walder.
His intuition told him that if he could read the second book exchanged by the "gatekeeper", he would find the second island that sealed the ancient god along the route one day, and maybe he could get more relics from the pre-Qin period.
As the dead father said: strength is the foundation of doing things in this chaotic world.
Jerome still sat in the corner with his eyes closed and rested his mind with a calm and relaxed look. After boarding the ship, the other monks who were tied up from the monastery found that they were not worried about their lives for the time being, and they settled down for the time being.
Loki did not have too much fear in his heart for these monks who wanted to preach. In this plane, the Hall of Valor, the Holy Bishop and other religions with different names are just institutions similar to soldier training schools.
Believe in these gods, and the gods will give you power.
The difference is that sending the Vikings under your command to the Hall of Valor in exchange for potions requires gambling with your life and paying money.
On the other hand, the Holy Bishop heard that he could upgrade his sequence level by preaching? If he could "get some God's Chosen" from the Holy Bishop, it would not be a bad idea.
The ship was sailing in the vast North Sea, and the most excited people at this time were the Viking warriors under Loki. Although this voyage had many twists and turns, the result was good after all!
They were busy counting the spoils. Calculate all the gains from this voyage.
120 500-gram gold bars.
2,765 50-gram silver coins of Ella III
The broken steel of the fallen Titan in the sunken city, roughly 5-2 tons
More than 70 gems of various colors dug or lifted from the church statues, crowns, and the headmaster's bedroom.
There are also some gold chains, silver bracelets, stained glass, etc.
In addition to these, after Loki revealed his identity, the low-key Illuminati "gatekeeper" was also very generous to him. The ship not only carried nearly 5 tons of various commercial grains; there were also many luxury goods of this era, such as spices, tea bricks, whale oil soap, Tang Sancai, etc. on the ship.
The most exaggerated thing is that there are dozens of kilograms of black gunpowder on the ship. Loki left it when the guy emptied the ship for him.
As a modern man, he understands the power of this thing. Thinking that sooner or later there will be some occasions where it can be used.
These goods that slipped out of the fingers of Izumo Trading Company are also a considerable asset for Loki.
"Hey, brothers, this time I'm going to Valhalla before the snow blocks the mountain!"
"Are you going or not!"
"Yes! Why not!" A young man with mottled scars on his arms said loudly, "Others see a 50% chance of death, but I see a 50% chance of survival!"
"My dad said that Odin loves warriors who live to die! Even if you explode and die in the process of drinking the potion, what does it matter!"
"After death, enter Valhalla and drink with the gods. When I reincarnate, I will drink again!"
"If one time doesn't work, drink twice. If two times don't work, I will drink 10 times. I don't believe that such a complicated death will not be favored by the gods!"
"Haha!"
The warriors drank the wine on the ship excitedly and counted the gold bars in their pockets in the dim light. Loki, who quietly walked outside the door, did not ruin their interest. After all, my brothers had risked their lives to work with me, so I should give them the compensation they deserved.
As for how they wanted to use the money they earned, that was not something he, as the village chief, should be involved in.
This time, I got too much gold coins. How should I spend them after distributing them to my subordinates? Loki was also thinking while walking on the side of the ship.
First of all, I have to do what I promised Jerome. I will build a church in the village, with a church school attached.
The Saints have preached, and their villagers have become educated.
This is also a win-win situation.
Secondly, it seems that a blacksmith shop should be opened in the village. For a long time, there has only been one carpenter, Sangji, in Hanshui Village. If you want to make swords, rivets, etc., you have to go to the neighboring village of Blood Pigeon Town.
This is too troublesome.
Especially since I have to build more ships in the future, a blacksmith shop is indispensable.
After doing these two things, there must be some silver coins left from the looting this time. Loki will start to think about how to improve the fighting power of the villagers. Should I buy some wargs from the mountain people of "Wolf Creek Bay" and train them to be warg knights?
Or buy some yaks from the frost people of "Frost Rain Castle" and train them to be yak knights?
He still needs to think about this question.
Loki does not agree with sending a large number of people to Valhalla to drink potions and gamble their lives. There are only 170 people in Hanshui Village, which is too small to afford such a waste.
The journey home is unusually peaceful. There is only a full moon hanging high on the calm sea, and the moonlight sprinkled on the sea makes Loki's lonely ship unusually lonely. Standing at the bow, he only feels that as the ship sails eastward, the wind blowing in his face is getting colder and colder.
And pieces of floating ice began to appear on the silent sea. This means that he is already close to the Scandinavian Peninsula.
Hometown is just ahead.
