Chapter 505: Their value is comparable to artifacts!
Here are the two great gentlemen.
After arriving at the Romine Chamber of Commerce in the imperial capital to explain the situation.
Soon someone took the two of them to visit a master art appraiser who was familiar with the Romine Chamber of Commerce.
——A master named Clinton Parisi!
I heard that two imperial counts were visiting.
The master greeted him warmly.
After a while of polite greetings, the two gentlemen also explained their purpose of "asking the master to appraise two works of art."
After Master Clinton expressed his willingness to oblige.
The two elders first took out a contract.
The entry above states:
Without permission.
No information related to either artwork can be disclosed to anyone.
Seeing a contract with such content, Clinton quickly realized that these two "arts of art" might not be simple.
After carefully reviewing the contents of the contract, Clinton signed his name.
After that, the two elders handed the magic book and the inheritance cross into the hands of the master.
At first, the master looked relatively calm.
After taking out various unique tools and carefully observing these two things.
He gradually became a little shocked:
"It's completely natural! There is no trace of man-made or magic!
As far as I know, there is no master in the Kaya Empire who can have such skills!"
After saying this, the research gradually deepened.
He gradually became confused and asked:
"Although the gems and decorations here are bright and gorgeous, they seem to be worthless goods?"
After discovering this, the master began to carefully observe the various components that make up the magic book and the inheritance cross. Material.
After checking all these materials, he was slightly disappointed and said:
"They are completely made of worthless ordinary materials!
Is it because of poverty?
But since he has such superb skills, he will not worry about mere money. Right?
The materials used are too stingy!"
Listening to the master's soliloquy, Master Claude said:
"Master Clinton, we have also carefully inspected these two things.
Although Their workmanship is indeed amazing, but all the materials are indeed ordinary materials without extraordinary properties.
In addition to these surface things, there are extremely tiny gaps inside them."
Hearing this, he was holding various tools. Master Clinton who was studying them also nodded and said:
"I have also discovered this. The decoration on their appearance hides some holes and gaps that are extremely natural and harmonious.
Ordinary people may simply regard them as a kind of decoration and ignore them.
But for us artists, every corner of every work of art must have a meaning.
With such exquisite skills, this master obviously understands this.
I think I have to take a closer look. Look at their internal structures."
Upon hearing this, Mr. Claude and Mr. Cecil couldn't help but brighten their eyes.
——This master seems to have some skills!
Next, the master named Clinton used an instrument driven by magic to "capture" part of the complex structure inside the inheritance cross and magic book.
Observing the complex three-dimensional patterns captured by the instrument in front of him.
Clinton frowned slightly and said to the two lords:
"My lords, the internal structures of these two things are very subtle and complex.
I feel that there may be some kind of rules in them, and I can only explore them so far with my methods. To a certain extent.
Judging from this, the producer may want to store or express certain information through these structures.
This information is very likely to be priceless!"
After hearing this, Mr. Cecil couldn't help but said curiously:
"These Isn't it possible that the internal structure is formed naturally during the building process?"
Hearing this, Master Clinton smiled and shook his head:
"Impossible, I have said it before:
for us artists, every Every corner of a work of art must have a meaning!
And why would a master with such superb skills leave such a conspicuous thing?"
Upon hearing this, the two masters couldn't help but feel that the fog in front of their eyes was lifted. .
Their previous guesses were confirmed by this master!
——There are huge secrets hidden in these lines or gaps!
Of course, they will not forget the purpose of their trip.
Mr. Claude asked:
"In the opinion of the master, what is the specific value of these two works of art?"
Clinton said:
"If you don't look at the information hidden inside, it will be difficult for them to sell at a high price in the market. .After
all, they are entirely made of ordinary materials.
Although they have a certain degree of ornamental value, that's all.
And obviously, we cannot ignore their internal structure. In fact,
this internal structure of them is the most important Something!"
At this point, Clinton suddenly began to pause and think.
The two elders couldn't help but frown slightly.
They are now a little worried that the Clinton guru will give comments such as "priceless treasure".
If this is the case, then their previous plan can be declared bankrupt.
However, what made them very happy was that
after thinking for a while, Master Clinton frowned slightly and said:
"There are still quite a few problems with the materials used to make these two things.
Metals with ordinary texture like this will, as time goes by, .
Under the erosion of magic power and elements, it is easy to undergo subtle deformation.
And their internal structures happen to be very subtle and delicate.
I actually doubt that these internal structures may have been different from when they were first created. There is a difference!
This difference may make what they contain lose value.
From this perspective, even with this internal structure, their value is relatively limited!"
After explaining this, Clinton added:
"I think the two lords should record their internal structures as soon as possible.
Even if they are still in good condition, as time goes by, in
one or two years at most, their internal structures will change."
After Clinton finished speaking, Mr. Cecil was a little surprised and said:
"In other words, these two things are not actually valuable. What is valuable is the internal structure?
After we record the internal structure, will these two things be dispensable?"
Clinton clicked He nodded and said:
"Yes, this is an obvious thing.
If their internal structures contain big secrets.
I suggest that the two earls destroy these two things after recording them.
I think for the two earls, , although these two things are exquisitely made, they should not be able to catch your eyes.
In comparison, keeping secrets is more important!"
He said this.
Master Clinton also very wisely destroyed part of the previously captured structures on the spot.
Then he handed the magic book and inheritance cross back to the hands of the two great masters.
After accepting the two items, the atmosphere at the scene quickly became extremely harmonious!
...
"What? The two great gentlemen destroyed my magic book and inheritance cross?"
The next morning, the library was stationed.
After receiving Catherine's notice, Brand walked out of the laboratory in a daze, and then came to a pavilion in the library.
After saying hello to the two elders who looked very guilty.
Brand was quickly attracted by the magic book and inheritance cross on the table.
——Their appearance has been slightly deformed!
The obvious thing is:
their internal structures must have suffered considerable damage!
——Are the two gentlemen planning to give him money?
After such thoughts flashed through my heart.
Brand said with a "displeased" look on his face:
"Two gentlemen, we have signed a contract.
Now that these two things of mine have become like this, you need to compensate."
In Brand's voice When it fell, Master Claude said apologetically:
"I'm sorry, this is indeed our mistake, and we are willing to compensate according to the contract."
Hearing this, Brand couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
——Isn’t this a little too refreshing?
Then, Brand looked puzzled.
Mr. Cecil took out a page of paper and handed it to Brand's hand.
After careful inspection, Brand discovered that it was an "appraisal of the value of art."
A master of art appraisal named Clinton Parisi appraised the value of his magic book and inheritance cross.
The total value is: 2000 magic gold coins!
Without waiting for Brand to speak, Mr. Cecil took out a bag with an apologetic look and said:
"The magic crystal here is worth about three thousand magic gold coins.
I think it should be able to compensate for these two works of art. The loss.
As for the impact on the duel..."
"Wait!"
Brand suddenly interrupted Mr. Cecil's words.
Then he said with a puzzled look on his face:
"Why did you find a master art appraiser to appraise the value of these two things?
Shouldn't you find a master blacksmith or master craftsman to calculate the cost of making them?"
Tingbu Rand said this.
Although I don’t quite understand it yet.
But the two elders have gradually developed a bad premonition in their hearts!
Immediately afterwards, Brand gently tapped the slightly deformed magic book, and then further explained:
"According to the contract, their value should be judged by masters in the relevant fields.
As a kind of magic book in combat , Special equipment with auxiliary functions.
Shouldn't the value be calculated from the perspective of cost? "
Cost cost? "
Just some ordinary materials...
Before the two elders could think about it, Brand continued sternly:
"Although they are only made of ordinary materials.
But the sophisticated and complex structure inside must be something that the two elders must have The master should also be aware.
To perfectly reproduce such a sophisticated and complex structure in such a narrow space,
it will definitely require the best craftsmen in the Farnes Continent!
And the top craftsmen in this continent use a variety of Top-notch methods and the highest crystallization of hard work!
I think their value is comparable to that of artifacts!"
