Chapter 70 Royal Treasure (Page 1/2)

A few hours later, it was late at night.

Frank looked at the dim night and quickly calmed down. He sighed that he was lucky and poured a bottle of cat potion into his mouth.

A minute or two later, the whole world became much brighter.

As a demon hunter, he already had a certain night vision ability. After drinking the cat potion, everything in this dim night became so clear in his eyes. It was late

at night and it was a good time to get the treasure.

Frank said something to Roche, who was in charge of the night watch, and pretended to go back to the room to sleep. In fact, he quickly locked the door and jumped out of the window.

He nimbly avoided the patrolling soldiers and moved between the buildings like a master assassin, flying over the eaves and walls, and soon passed through the deserted streets and came to the Cintra Royal City, which looked like a dead city.

As the castle of the royal family of Cintra, this royal city is quite large. It not only has a small moat for protection, but also has a solid wall built around it.

After Queen Calanthe was defeated, the lioness of Cintra, with the remaining soldiers, held out for three days in this royal city, resisting the attacks of tens of thousands of Nilfgaardian troops and fighting to the death.

Until the end, the entire royal city was beaten to pieces, the women and children among the nobles committed suicide by taking poison, and all the male nobles died on the battlefield. The people in the city were infected by the spirit of the queen and fought to the death.

In the end, the Nilfgaardians were so angry that they committed the atrocities of massacring the city and destroying the country.

Now that Frank has come to this royal city that has almost become a ruin, he has deeply realized how fierce Queen Calanthe's resistance is.

In three months, this former royal city has been looted several times by Nilfgaardian soldiers, and the valuables have long been emptied.

Although there were still a few soldiers standing at the entrance of the royal city to guard, the ruins had long been unattended.

With the help of a rope and a grappling hook, Frank easily climbed over the broken wall from an inconspicuous corner and entered what was probably the back garden.

Following the route he learned from Ciri, he groped in the ruined royal city for a long time and finally found the bedroom of Queen Calanthe.

This was a very spacious room, but unfortunately the luxurious decorations and luxurious furniture in the past had long been emptied, and even the curtains had been completely removed. The whole room was left with only empty floor tiles, bare walls, and a broken fireplace, which looked quite desolate.

However, Frank did not care about these details.

After arriving in the room, he immediately turned on his demon hunter senses with full concentration. According to Ciri's vague memory, he searched inch by inch on the wall where the secret door was located, without missing any abnormality.

Finally, with the help of the demon hunter's keen perception, he found a slightly raised stone inside the chimney of the fireplace.

After twisting it hard, accompanied by the sound of a subtle mechanism, a secret door appeared on the wall next to the fireplace.

After seeing this secret door, Frank let out a long breath, and the tension in his heart was relieved.

The royal treasure really exists, and Xiao Xili's memory is indeed correct.

He stood outside the secret door, adjusted his breathing a few times, and then carefully walked down the stairs leading to the underground.

This is a staircase about seven or eight meters high, which directly connects to the underground from Queen Calanthe's bedroom. The location is quite secret.

After going down the stairs, Frank came to a rectangular secret room. The area is not large, about half of the bedroom.

There are not many things in the secret room, and the whole secret room seems quite empty.

Just after walking down the secret room, Frank's eyes have not had time to observe the treasures, and his eyes are attracted by the evil sword in the center of the secret room.

This is a long sword with a very strange shape, about 1.3 meters long. Half of its blade is locked in a metal box engraved with magic inscriptions, and the other half, including the hilt, is firmly tied to the ground with several chains that seem to be forged with magic-blocking metal.
