Staring at the many elven gold coins stored in the treasure house, we can see the prosperity and wealth of the elven city-state of Etaye in the past.
With regret and memory for Etaye'e, everyone completed the partition with tears in their eyes.
Because it was agreed before that if any treasure is found, a share will be given to each of Lynn and Triss.
That is, elven gold coins worth four thousand crowns per person.
Then there is Professor Grogg and his three students, who can also share a share.
There is also a portion left for Prince Adrian.
This was the agreement Professor Grogg made with Prince Adrian when he accepted the sponsorship.
Prince Adrian provided them with practical and effective help.
But if treasure is found, Prince Adrian will also take a share.
As for the last remaining ones, they must be handed over to Oxenfurt University.
They are not grave robbers.
It is impossible to put all the harvest into your own pocket.
In fact, according to the regulations of Oxenfurt University, any discovery in the ruins should be handed over to Oxenfurt University.
But this provision is one thing, and actually implementing it is another.
The professors at Oxenfurt University may be both wise and professional.
But after all, they are not saints who are willing to sacrifice everything.
Success and fame do not conflict with wealth and freedom. Only children can make choices, but adults want them all.
Besides, doing research also costs money.
Without money, no matter how noble you are, you will starve to death.
Therefore, Oxenfurt University will basically turn a blind eye to this kind of behavior, but as long as it doesn't go too far.
Dracy Manor.
The night is already very deep.
But Prince Adrian still didn't go to bed.
He couldn't sleep.
At this time, quite a while had passed since Kiyaen said goodbye to him.
But Keyan has not reported the situation to him yet.
This is the first time that Prince Adrian and Kyaan have cooperated.
But in the assassin's profession, Keyan is also somewhat famous.
That's why he asked Kian to do his dirty work for him.
Prince Adrian has great confidence in Keyan.
After all, what Keyan has to deal with is just a few nerds and a group of coolies.
With such a huge advantage, how could we lose?
'Perhaps I should shift my attention. Instead of waiting anxiously, I should think about how to use the treasure after I get it...'
Just as he was thinking this, suddenly, the sound transmission box placed on the table suddenly glowed brightly.
Prince Adrian happily took the voice box over and said, "Kyyan, did you succeed?"
However, the sound that came out of the speaking box the next second surprised Prince Adrian.
"Your Highness, what did you say?"
What came out of the sound box was actually the voice of Professor Grogg, who was ordered to be silenced by Prince Adrian.
This made Prince Adrian's mood instantly fall to the bottom.
Before leaving, Prince Adrian did give Professor Grogg a voice box.
He also told Professor Grogg that after completing the exploration of the ruins, he would use this sound transmission box to contact him immediately.
But this is actually just the surface.
His real intention was that after the ruins were explored, Kaiyan would take action to kill everyone who discovered the ruins.
Then he used the transmission box he gave to Professor Grogg to contact himself.
Therefore, when the sound box emitted light, he mistakenly thought that Keyan had succeeded.
Then here comes the problem.
Why didn't Kyaan go according to plan?
But Prince Adrian was worthy of being a prince. He quickly reacted and regrouped his emotions.
"Nothing, let's not mention this. Professor Grogg, if you contact me, does that mean you have discovered something?"
Professor Grogg was no longer troubled by Prince Adrian's treatment.
Instead, he emotionally reported his findings to Prince Adrian.
"Of course, Your Highness, the Elf city-state of Etaye'e is real! The legendary treasure of Elf King McGlor is also real!"
'Finally there is good news.'
Prince Adrian said this in his heart.
To be honest, Prince Adrian did not have high expectations from the time he first started sponsoring Professor Grogg.
It wasn't until Professor Grogg made a substantial breakthrough that Prince Adrian increased his sponsorship.
Now, his sponsorship has finally paid off.
"That's great, so you... didn't encounter any danger in the ruins?"
Professor Grogg's rejoicing voice came from the transmission box. "Of course, it was all thanks to the help of the master demon hunter, who helped us clear out the monsters and traps in the ruins."
"Who are you talking about?" Prince Adrian keenly caught the key words in Professor Grogg's sentence, "You mean Kian?"
Professor Grogg immediately denied. "No, it's Master Lynn."
Prince Adrian was stunned for a moment.
"He's the only one? Didn't Kyaan follow him into the ruins?"
"No, because Master Keyan died before arriving at the ruins."
Professor Grogg's words shocked Prince Adrian.
"You said... dead? What happened? Tell me in detail."
Therefore, Prince Adrian learned from Professor Grogg the version that Lynn compiled for them.
Of course, this version can be used to fool Professor Mongrogg and others.
It is impossible to deceive Prince Adrian.
After all, as Keyan's employer, he knows very well what kind of person Keyan is.
What's more, it was he who issued the order to get rid of Lynn as soon as possible to avoid long nights and dreams.
As for the nonsense Professor Grogg said, "Kyyan was killed by a monster to protect them," Prince Adrian didn't believe a word of it.
The only possibility is that when Kiyaen tried to kill Lynn, he failed and was counter-killed, so he had such an excuse.
The above thoughts just flashed quickly in Prince Adrian's mind.
In reality, not much time has actually passed.
"Really? That's such a pity." A cold light flashed in Prince Adrian's eyes, "Professor, where are you now? Are you still in the ruins?"
Professor Grogg did not doubt that he was there, and replied without thinking, "Yes, all of us are in the camp at the entrance to the ruins."
Prince Adrian mentioned it seemingly unintentionally. "Master Lynn is here too?"
"Yes."
After hearing Professor Grogg's reply, Prince Adrian tapped his fingers lightly on the table.
"Very good, now that all the ruins have been cleared, the master demon hunter's mission can be considered completed."
"In this way, you can give him four hundred crowns out of the dividends that should have been paid to me."
"This reward was originally supposed to be given to Master Keyan, but since Master Keyan is no longer here, and Master Lynn has done Master Keyan's work again, it is reasonable for him to receive the reward."
"Master witchers are busy people. Since their tasks have been completed, we shouldn't waste his time any longer."
"I will send someone over right away to receive my share of the dividends we agreed upon in advance."
"In addition, after Oxenfurt University approves your discovery, find a time for you and your students to come to my manor, and I will reward you well."
Professor Grogg said flattered.
"This... you are too polite, Your Highness."
Prince Adrian waved his hand subconsciously, and then realized that the other party could not see his movements at all. "You're welcome, Professor, you should be rewarded for your good work, this is what you deserve."
Thank you Daxian for the reward! Thank you to friends who voted for monthly votes and recommendation votes. Thank you for your support!
