"These two pieces are the stone fish from a Zapotec civilization ruins that I excavated in South America, and the gold medallion that I harvested from the Gran Cocle ancient ruins in Panama. Well, it should be a medallion!

"

"I didn't expect that you already have enough sacrifices to fulfill your duties as a treasure hunter?"

Ralph took the two items with a somewhat surprised tone.

The stone fish, which is about three inches long, looks like it was randomly carved from a black stone picked up by the roadside. The texture on it is relatively rough. Of course, you can still tell from the shape of the lines that it is an aquatic creature.

The gold badge is a pentagonal shield-like gold product. Although it does not have the neat beauty of industrial creations, it contains a simple sense of art. It is not so much a badge as something fixed on something.

Decoration on utensils.

"The Zapotec civilization was an indigenous American civilization before Columbus discovered the New World. Their footprints were distributed in South and Central America, mainly in the Mexican state of Oaxaca. Its history can be traced back to at least 2,500 years

In the past, although there was no direct connection with the famous Mayan Empire in the Americas, the Zapotec ruins contained pyramid-style buildings, playing fields and magnificent mausoleums, so the academic community believed that they and the Mayans may have been influenced by the Austrian Empire.

The influence of the Ermec civilization.”

Then Ralph weighed another gold "badge" and said with a light in his eyes like discovering something beautiful:

"As for the Gran Coquel Civilization, they were an indigenous civilization in Central America. They lasted from about 1200 BC to 1500 AD and were distributed near the Coquel Province in present-day Panama.

area."

"The items unearthed so far at the site of the Gran Cocle Civilization mainly include processed gold and other metals, carved bone objects, shells and ivory, etc. There are even textiles and jewelry with semi-precious stones.

and pottery.”

"This can completely prove that the civilization of the Glencokle people is a relatively developed aboriginal civilization among all the discovered Native American civilizations, and its social level is ranked high."

"So I recommend you to use this gold badge as a sacrifice for the first inauguration ceremony. Although the scope of influence of the Glencokle civilization is not large, it can be regarded as a small regional country at the city-state level, but they

Its history is older than the Zapotec civilization, its civilization level is also higher, and it contains greater power."

"Civilization itself is a treasure. Although it seems to be nothing, it contains powerful power! Although Gran Cocle is not a big country like the Mayan Empire or the Aztec Empire, it is completely rich and abundant as the goal of your inauguration ceremony.

Got it!"

"And with my refusal, by using this golden badge as the main sacrifice at your inauguration ceremony, the power gathered in the history of the Glencokle civilization will definitely allow you to leapfrog the apprenticeship stage and directly break through to become a B-class extraordinary

Top level treasure hunter!"

Ben Franklin was overjoyed when he heard this and said:

"I understand, thank you teacher!"

Ralph didn't have much objection to Ben Franklin's behavior of calling himself teacher when he beat a snake with a stick, because he was originally an intellectual with a peaceful temperament and devoted himself to research. In Chinese dialect, he was somewhat modest and gentlemanly.

, there is usually nothing that can be done against a slick guy like Ben Franklin who has been among the crowd since childhood.

This can be considered a disguised gentleman who can be deceived, right?

And Xie Zihao didn't have any objections to this, because this descendant of the Franklin family was originally the target he was planning to absorb under his banner.

So Ben Franklin's little plan to force him to recognize his teacher was successful.

He didn't feel embarrassed that he was in his thirties and still had a young man who was obviously no older than 27 or 28 as his teacher. Originally, Western society was all about status and wealth, and a young billionaire was enough.

Asking an elderly person to nod and bow down for him will not be embarrassing at all, but will make many people envious and wish they could replace him.

Moreover, the rule of the extraordinary world is that the strong are respected. When you become the apprentice of an extraordinary and powerful person, even if the teacher is younger than the apprentice, no one will make irresponsible remarks.

This is obviously different from the traditional cultural customs of Eastern society that have been paying attention to etiquette and respecting the elderly and caring for the young since ancient times.

Although it was on the road, because the RV was spacious enough and the driving was relatively smooth, Ralph helped Ben Franklin, his new disciple whom he had accepted as his default, to prepare the arrangements for the ceremony. Of course, the specific ceremony process still required finding a flat land.

can be carried out.

Fortunately, Xie Zihao brought an independent world with him, and there was no shortage of all kinds of materials. After Ralph completed the preparations for the ceremony, he found an open space with large gray stones to park the RV.

After Xie Zihao got out of the car, he waved his hand with invisible force and leveled the upper part of the large stone exposed on the ground. The effect was as if it had been finely polished with a grinder. The cross-section was as smooth as the marble floor of a high-end hotel. When he got closer,

The kind that can clearly illuminate people's silhouettes.

Ralph used the divine power given by the Lord God to transform into a carving knife, and carved a relatively complex magic circle pattern on the smooth surface of the boulder. Then he placed the materials in the corresponding positions in sequence, and infused the lines of the magic circle into

About 150 ml of Franklin's own blood was mixed with purified water, charcoal powder and mercury. The auxiliary ingredients were a mixture of several special essential oils and hydrosols.

After all the mixed liquid filled the entire magic circle, Ralph asked Ben Franklin to stand at the core of the magic circle and recited a three-part aria-like incantation.

The incantation sounded, spiritual power was injected, and the originally ordinary magic circle suddenly glowed with spiritual brilliance.

Because this profession of treasure hunter is a remnant of a supernatural inheritance that originated in the Assyrian region, and was created by an alchemist from the Venetian region who loved adventure in the early Middle Ages, the spell uses Latin

It is mainly written in Chinese, with ancient Assyrian language mixed in.

Even Professor Issa Aziz, who had the most basic knowledge present, could not tell the difference clearly, because Assyrian is a northern dialect of Akkadian. Akkadian is the oldest Semitic language and is

The Akkadians in the Mesopotamia absorbed the official language created by Sumerian, and its written form was also cuneiform like the ancient Sumerian.

Aziz didn't do much research on Akkadian, and he was better at deciphering Babylonian. What's more, Assyrian is a dialect of northern Akkadian, which makes it even more difficult to understand.

However, he could hear Latin very clearly. After all, this was the common language of extraordinary beings born in the Middle Ages, the most mainstream language in the Western extraordinary world. Therefore, many extraordinary knowledge and magic books were recorded in Latin as the mainstream language.

The importance of Latin in the Western supernatural world can be described in one sentence. As a wizard, if you don't know Latin, you may not even be able to recite a complete spell, let alone become an official supernatural spellcaster.

As Ralph's spell, which presided over the ceremony, reached its climax, the light of the magic circle became strong and fluctuated violently.

A picture of the progress of civilization appeared in front of everyone's eyes like a slideshow. It was a picture of people with obvious Native American characteristics farming, working and building. It all turned into a chaotic stream of light and poured into the core of the magic circle.
Chapter completed!
