Chapter 153 Legend(1/2)

"What is this?" Cotterman asked confusedly, holding the letter of appointment in his hand.

"Promise!" Pastor Dalton said with a smile: "For you and me! I remember the last time you accepted a commission from the British Empire, the result was not very good, right? It won't happen this time, those guys last time

They are just a bunch of liars. This time I will give you the most reliable insurance. This is a letter of appointment signed by His Majesty the King himself, with His Majesty the King's seal on it. You can rest assured."

The last commission to investigate Spectre was actually not Coatman hired by the British Empire, but a good show directed and performed by Spectre. They just wanted to use this as an excuse to gather the talented people from the League of Gentlemen.

Together, we just steal their abilities.

Cotman smiled. Although the result and process of the last investigation were not very good, Cotman has never regretted it. He is the kind of person who never regrets once he makes a choice, and the last investigation,

At least it gave him, an old man, a long-lost passion.

Looking at the letter of appointment in his hand, the content on it was very strange. The King of England actually hired him as a royal archaeological consultant! Let’s not talk about whether the royal family has this position, but when did the royal family and archeology become related?

Others also saw the contents of the letter of appointment, after all, their names were on it. They knew even less than Coatman, so they were all confused at the moment.

"Archaeology? Sorry, I'm a scientist. I can do chemistry and physics, but archeology..." Dr. Hyde felt that the royal family was a bit ridiculous. They came to him for archeology... What a waste of talent!

"Mr. Hyde, although it's a bit hurtful to say this, in fact we don't need you, what we need is the monster inside you!" Although Pastor Dalton's words were kind-hearted, his words were extremely pungent and could even be called venomous.

Because of the incarnation potion, Hyde has a second personality. That personality is Hyde. In fact, Hyde's real name is Henry Jekyll. Because of the second personality, he no longer uses his original name.

If Pastor Dalton said this before, Hyde would indeed be very sad. He once wanted to commit suicide because of the problem of his second personality. But since the incident of Spectre, Hyde accepted his second personality, Mr. Hyde.

The two reached a reconciliation and agreement, so he called himself Dr. Hyde. Because of this, when faced with Dalton's harsh words, he just rolled his eyes and remained silent.

"Let us be clear, gentlemen, so that you will not misunderstand the mission. Except for Mr. Cotterman, the rest of the people are here because of business! Mr. Hyde will not mention it, you are already in the UK

Committed more than a dozen murders and dozens of injuries. If you accept the assignment, complete the task and swear to secrecy, we will withdraw the wanted order against you. At least the wanted order against Henry Jekyll, you can use

Hyde's identity is safe in England."

Dalton didn't wait for Hyde to speak, then turned to Captain Nemo and Mina.

"Captain Nemo, as long as you complete the mission, your Nautilus will be able to carry out secret supplies at any port in the British Empire. This is what you have always wanted." The reason why Nemo agreed to the invitation of the League of Gentlemen back then was also

For this reason.

"Ms. Mina, you, like Mr. Hyde, have committed many murders. We can reach an agreement with you. As long as you do not violate our direct agreement, you can live in the UK." Mina is a vampire, she needs blood,

This has nothing to do with whether she is kind or not. Vampires will die if they don't suck blood. But Mina is relatively principled. She only preys on those who deserve to die, and she never touches innocent people. Of course, this does not affect her

Commit murder.

More importantly, Britain has the ability to deal with her. The Royal Temple Church under the Anglican Church is dedicated to doing this. The reason why it did not trouble Mina before was entirely because of the personal relationship between Mina and Van Helsing. Now Van Helsing has long gone to see God

, and the contradiction between the two has become increasingly prominent.

The conditions given by Dalton are undoubtedly very tempting to Mina. She is not alone, she also has her own blood, and she must be responsible for them.

"As for Mr. Steve and Miss Diana... I don't think I need to say anything more. Although you have done a very good job on the front line, at the same time you have committed almost all the crimes you can commit!" Among them, Steve

The husband accounts for a small part of the reason. Americans are not good birds. When he was on the front line, Steve did a lot of things in private. The top brass of the Allied Powers knew this, but in order to win over the United States, they mostly turned a blind eye. Steve

My husband is a spy, and it is completely normal to seek benefits for his country.

And Diana went even further. Her unique outlook and powerful strength were enough to give everyone a headache.

Steve obviously knew this very well, so he had no objection to the task proposed by Dalton. It would be great if he could clean up the mess.

Unfortunately Diana disagreed.

"No, I am a warrior. My mission is to defeat Ares, the God of War. I am not interested in what orders your king gives!" The implication is that he does not want to accept this mission.

Dalton was not surprised by Diana's reaction. Three months had been enough for him to collect enough information. Dalton just looked at Steve.

"Mr. Steve, I hope you can understand that the reason why we are willing to trade with you is entirely because of Miss Diana. If Miss Diana refuses to accept the task, then..." The meaning is obvious, Steve can't

Do you understand?

Others didn't like Steve at all, and they brought him along solely because he could convince Diana.

"Got it!" Steve naturally knew what to do.

"Very good." Dalton then said to Diana: "Don't refuse so quickly. This matter has a lot to do with you."

"With me?" Diana didn't understand.

"Yes, it is precisely because of your appearance that the royal family and us are determined to carry out this mission. If successful, it will have a very profound impact on the battle situation. Including the god of war Ares in your mouth."

After speaking, Dalton turned his head and said to everyone: "I want you to know that the current war situation is not good. Especially because of Ludendorff's activity and the situation and the extremely critical moment. We have intelligence that shows that Ludendorff is

Dendorff is having deep contact with some monsters that we are not willing to talk about. We have reason to believe that the situation of the war will become more complicated and unpredictable. It is in view of this situation that the royal family and the cabinet decided to start this project

Top secret mission."

Diana was no longer so resistant because of Dalton's words and Steve's persuasion. She was actually quite curious about what Dalton wanted to do by gathering them together.

"What exactly is the top secret mission you're talking about?"

Dalton did not speak, but pointed to the appointment letter. Obviously, you must sign to participate. Now everyone had nothing to say and signed their names one by one. Dalton put away the appointment with satisfaction.

book, he opened his mouth and said.

"Didn't I say before that the appearance of Miss Diana made us really determined to launch this plan."

"I?"

"Yes! We learned about your abilities and origins, so we thought, since Amazon really exists, do people who exist in other myths and legends also exist?"

At this time, Coatman raised his head and asked: "So you want us to open the story of the legendary immortal, the Lion King, the dragon hunter, the golden lion of Britain, and the strongest knight in history - Kai Britannia?"

tomb?"

"That's right!" Dalton didn't hide it anymore. "Mr. Coatman, do you know the legend about the Lion King?"

"The golden immortal lion will surely wake up from its slumber when darkness sweeps the world." Cotman said slowly. But others were a little baffled by this. They had only heard of the Eternal King - King Arthur.

The expression of return.

Because this legend is very unpopular, only very few legends mention it, because most of the legends about Kay are mixed with the legend of King Arthur. King Arthur is the protagonist, and Kay has always been a supporting role. In the process of spreading, it naturally

Will ignore some things about the supporting characters, and even add many deeds to the protagonist to highlight the protagonist.

Only legends from almost fifteen centuries ago would focus on describing Kay's deeds. Later, because the legend of King Arthur added many Christian elements, Kay's sense of existence was greatly weakened, and he could only be reduced to an important supporting role in the early stage of the legend.

Arthur left the scene after completing the unification.

"This is just a legend."

Although Cotterman knew this legend, it did not mean that he would believe it. If the royal family had not approached him so carefully and told him about it, he would have even thought that someone was playing a prank. But since the royal family spent such a high price

Finding him means that the royal family must have some valuable information. He now hopes that Dalton can bring it out.

"What if there is evidence to prove that this is not a legend?" After Coatman clapped his hands, Sister Catherine, who had left before, walked out with a box in her arms. Dalton opened the box, took out a slate, and put it on all

In front of people. "This is a stone slab excavated near Leicester about 89 years ago. Based on so many years of research, many experts have always believed that this stone slab was produced about 7000 BC. The text on it is a

This kind of writing has never been discovered, but fortunately, this kind of writing has a great origin with Celtic language, and the two have many similarities. So after many years of deciphering, we finally got it thirty years ago.

some information."

After saying that, Dalton handed Coatman a piece of paper. On it was clearly written the legend about Kai that Coatman just said, exactly word for word.

This is amazing. A stone tablet from 7000 BC actually recorded a legend that has been passed down to this day. The significance of this is beyond imagination. At least they can be sure of one thing, that is, King Arthur and Kay

The age far exceeds the previous estimate of around 500 AD by historians.

It can even prove that King Arthur and Lion King Kai are indeed real people!

"What's the line below?"

"Coordinates, coordinates of the mausoleum!"

"Have you found the tomb?!!!" Coatman stood up with a whoosh and said excitedly. This is evidence of the existence of a mythical figure! This discovery can lead to so many things!

"Not bad!" Dalton curled his lips and said, "I did find it, but the only problem is how to get in."

After speaking, Dalton threw out a stack of photos. The photos showed the entrance to an underground mausoleum and some basic conditions, but there were no more detailed photos. Dalton then gave an explanation.

"In the last ten years after the stone slab was deciphered, we organized almost twenty explorations of the tomb. Each time we suffered heavy losses. Most of them were annihilated. Even if there were survivors, they were completely crazy. So as early as the second

We terminated this operation ten years ago. It was not until seven years ago that we noticed you and were interested in reorganizing the expedition team. Now with the appearance of Miss Diana, we finally made up our mind to restart the operation."

Cotman didn't pay attention to Dalton's explanation. He just studied the photos wholeheartedly.

The photos from this era are all in black and white, and the clarity is worrying, so many details need to be studied carefully.

"Okay, everyone, I will ask Sister Catherine to send all the information to you later. Now you must hurry up." Pastor Dalton did not give them time to study the information carefully, but instead kept urging them to act as soon as possible.

"So urgent?" Dr. Hyde asked a little surprised.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Dalton’s face looked a little unhappy when he mentioned this. “The Germans already knew something. Just a few days ago, a group of Germans suddenly made a surprise attack.

He found the ruins and entered them..."

Now everyone understood. No wonder Dalton told them everything so happily. Otherwise, according to the bureaucratic style of those big shots, it would have been impossible to act so vigorously and offer them such good trading conditions.



Soon the group got on the train to Leicester under the leadership of Sister Catherine. This Sister Catherine was the person Dalton named and inserted into the team, which was regarded as monitoring them. Regarding this,

Neither Steve nor Kottman paid much attention.
