Silent Crown Chapter 301: Difficulty in choice
"In view of Mr. Holmes's outstanding performance yesterday, and his great contribution to Anglo. His Majesty has agreed to Mr. Maxwell's request to open the Stein Chamber for you and let you choose one of the collections.
As a representative of the royal family, I will witness the choice and results of my husband and give them recognition. Of course, if you choose items that involve Guomai, please forgive me for not agreeing. In addition, you are free to choose. "
Mary's voice is polite, and it can be seen that she deliberately maintains a sense of distance, but it is not disgusting.
"Don't worry, I don't have any covetousness for Anglo's national line."
Ye Qingxuan lowered his eyes, and a self-deprecating smile was outlined at the corner of his mouth: "From the bottom of my heart, I hope this country will last for a long time."
"That's too..."
Mary staggered before she finished speaking and fell to the ground.
During the conversation, the distance between the two of them was shortened, and they moved closer together. But Ye Qingxuan, who was emotionally complicated, didn't pay attention and stepped on the corner of Mary's skirt.
In a low voice of astonishment, Mary shook, the wind lantern fell from her hand, rolled in the air, fell to the ground, and was about to smash into pieces. The expected breaking sound did not sound.
It was held firmly by the palm of one hand at the moment it landed.
Including Mary.
At that moment, Ye Qingxuan stepped forward and walked around to Mary's right side, holding the wind lantern in one hand and supporting her left arm with the other. Immediately afterwards, she felt that the princess who had lost her center of gravity almost smashed into her arms.
Mary lowered her head in a panic, as if she was not used to being so close to others, a whistling voice came from under the veil: "Mr. Holmes... please let me go."
Ye Qingxuan took a step back, helplessly spreading his hands to show his innocence.
Mary lowered her head, hid her cheek behind the brim of her hat, just bit her lip, and whispered:
"We are here."

In the next few minutes, Ye Qingxuan closed his eyes as requested, but didn't see anything.
Only the sound of the machine pivoting was heard. It seems that the elevator is operating, but there is no change in movement. Until he opened his eyes again, he was already in the huge stone chamber.
Under the light coming from nowhere, the huge stone chamber is already full of things. It was like entering a huge antique shop, and it was dazzling as far as the eye could see.
Masks that have survived from an unknown age, ancient calligraphy from the East, weird long swords with complex patterns, and majestic armors that are incomplete and damaged. The corpse wrapped in layers of ancient bandages and placed in the coffin of gold......
"And this one?"
Just looking at it casually, Ye Qingxuan stood on the spot blankly. After reacting, he hurriedly moved up and touched the huge stone stele that didn't look amazing, and sighed in a low voice:
"The earliest tuning instrument-Rosetta Stone? All the ancient literature and the foundation of music theory research today, I didn't expect it to be kept here?
The Semitic Heritage Festival in Thebes Desert, and this sword..."
For a while, he forgot about reservedness and etiquette, and was attracted by precious treasures that only appeared in legends.
As Mary said, there are many legendary natural disaster-level movements. The original hand-written copy of "The Majestic First March", the inheritance heart seal on it has not been used, the core movement of the illusion school "Nocturne", and even the "Fifth Concerto: The Emperor" left by the original Red King. Fragment...
The manuscripts of the saints in the past are randomly placed on the display shelf here, and they have been reduced to ordinary books. According to Ye Qingxuan's guess, the air-dried corpse in the golden coffin was no longer a saint's relic, it was a complete saint's remains!
The main body of the Great Enchantment of Avalon-the design drawing of the Elizabeth Clock... is placed in the center, holding the classics in the gold box. It is a handwritten book by King Arthur, which combines the essence of change and summoning factions. The Fateful Chapter "The Winning Golden Chapter"!
There are more things that Ye Qingxuan can't recognize scattered around, no doubt. The things that can be placed in the same room as these things are definitely not tatters picked up at random on the street.
It's just that everything has been sealed, and no etheric fluctuations can be revealed. no doubt. This is to make things better preserved. After all, there are too many alchemy products here, and no one knows what strange consequences will be produced by mutual influence.
But this also brought some trouble to Ye Qingxuan's selection work.
He doesn't want to pick up someone who sounds awesome but completely useless.
So, can you only rely on eyesight?
During his thoughts, he suddenly saw an erratic shadow flying by from the corner of his eye, turning his head in astonishment. But one after another fuzzy translucent shadows came out of the wall.
It's Gao Wen.
Mary didn't seem to notice, Gawain's shadow raised her finger and made a silent motion.
Ye Qingxuan blinked, calmly.
He thought about it, and looked back at Mary at the door:
"I wonder if there is something suitable for me?"
Mary recovered from her trance, but smiled: "Then you have to choose it yourself."
She is not going to help. Obviously, the attitude of the imperial family is to let Ye Qingxuan pick it by himself, and to pick too much, if it involves the national line, it will definitely not work. If you pick which area the emperor likes the most, but there is no use for eggs... then you can only blame yourself.
"It seems that I can only choose by myself?"
He muttered to himself, looking at Gao Wen from the corner of his eye.
The erratic silhouettes of the Gaowens heard Ye Qingxuan's voice, and they moved suddenly, seeming to be plunged into distressed thinking. Several figures stood in the same room arguing silently, gesticulating the collection, like a meeting to discuss.
They were originally the administrators of the Jianlan Digong, responsible for the maintenance and cleaning of the field, and they were completely clear about what was inside. After hearing Ye Qingxuan's needs, a heated discussion immediately began.
It's just that most people just alternate a few thoughts in their minds, but Gawain has become a group of shadows, falling into a silent dispute. Like children, when it comes to excitement, they almost fight each other.
In the end, the shadows who had won triumphantly drove away the other "people" and chose a good place to stand indoors. In front of everyone, there is a collection.
There are big and small, some hell, some ordinary, and some don't see what it is, but it just makes people feel inexplicable.
The first one is a crystal skull, crystal clear, as if it contains some mysterious wisdom. In the scattered refraction, there is a cloud of smoke flowing, and a certain kind of shadow caught by scales is constantly revealed, but it is not clear. After watching it for a long time, I feel ecstatic.
This is a kind of alchemy equipment of the psychology school, and its rank is not low. According to the distinction of Jiuxiaohuanpei, there should still be a heart mark hidden in it. No, maybe it is like a musician applying the ‘醍醐’, which can only be used once in his life, on his skull to wait for future generations.
The second pipe, carved from meerschaum, is of little use, but according to the analysis of the shape and the signature on the inside, it should be a work of a certain school of summoning by Angelu.
After being ignited, the spirit in the seal can be summoned, and the body can be endowed with smoke. It is between the invisible and the invisible, and it may also have the effect of flame transmission.
It has a wide range of uses, no matter it is for assassination, detection or **** missions, there is no difficulty.
The third is a simple monocle. If you stare sideways, you can vaguely see the subtle notes engraved on the lens. Alchemy equipment like this is probably the result of a rare school of enlightenment. Excellent auxiliary detection type.
The fourth one is a hip flask, a flat hip flask with a lid. It looks like it was made of pure copper, covered with wear scars and vicissitudes. It is an ancient relic, but it seems that there is still some liquid remaining in it. When it is gently shaken, it makes a fine sound. Ye Qingxuan couldn't tell where it came from, and could only faintly feel the strong sense of relief from his body.
Even through the bottle, there is a strong thirst, I want to drink the wine...
The fifth piece is a huge thing: a huge armor, but the right hand part and visor have been mutilated, and the inside of it has been badly damaged. Although it looks scrapped, Ye Qingxuan did not dare to underestimate it... This is a worn-out armor of the Knights of the Round Table!
Although it is no longer able to tell which one it is, and the Eudemons contained in it have been taken out, it is still a rare masterpiece known as the armor of the gods. If you can find a good alchemist to repair it, I'm afraid it will not be difficult to reproduce the face of the past...
In the silence, Ye Qingxuan wandered in the Stein's Chamber, his eyes lingering on the five pieces of equipment, but he could not make a decision. Choosing a difficult disease... It's really hard to make a choice.
After a long time, he sighed in a low voice, stretched out his hand, and took out the monocle.
"That's it."
Ye Qingxuan said to Mary.
Mary was stunned for a moment, nodded, and reached out to unlock the seal on it for him, so the faint etheric fluctuations were revealed from it.
"The Silent Eye?"
Ye Qingxuan looked at its side, with the name left by the alchemist and a meaningful line: "——Sometimes, it’s not easy to learn the truth~IndoMTL.com~ Silent Eye, auxiliary alchemy equipment made by ancient alchemists.
Permanently solidifies the real vision, can break most of the effects of illusion, and greatly increase the musician's sensing range. The effect of telescope and magnification is only incidental. What is truly precious is the special movement engraved in it.
This is a piece of equipment that truly "opens up musicians". As long as the items recorded in the catalog, it can be quickly marked in the wearer's field of vision, including herbs, alchemy materials, minerals, and wild creatures and monsters, and they can be interpreted and calculated automatically.
Distance measurement, ether fluctuation detection, and enemy's approximate strength estimation, analysis... are equivalent to obtaining the ‘Eyes of the Star’, the signature ability of the Enlightenment faction, and it also has a huge bonus to interpretation.
"Is that so sure?"
Mary seems a bit regretful. The Eye of Silence is not the best among all the collections. In addition to its super-wide versatility, only the ability of true vision is remarkable.
"If I want to change, I actually..." (To be continued.)
