Chapter 701: Chapter 496, Gold Queen_3
The greater possibility is that it’s me.
But this was just his speculation, it needs further verification.
They traveled for a few more hours.
Finally, the group has arrived at Li Rong’s territory.
The city gates were opened, and everyone and everything made their way in.
It was late, and after rooms were assigned, everyone retired for the night.
…
The next day.
The early morning light seeped in through the window.

Fang Hao tightened his quilt and groggily opened his eyes.
Li Rong’s territory had no glass, the windows were empty, and there was no sensation when waking up.
But once asleep, a chill sensation could be felt.
He got out of bed and was about to leave the room.
He heard a notification for a private message from the Book of Lords.
When he checked, it was from Zhang Bin.
“Boss, I am currently with Scholar Nelson, he has seen the picture.”
Fang Hao instantly perked up, “Um, what did the Scholar say? Could he identify who was in the picture?”
“The Scholar said it’s the Gold Queen.” Zhang Bin replied.
Gold Queen?
Darn, that name is quite extravagant and indeed, a lot of gold items were found in that underground palace.
All kinds of utensils and statues were made of gold.
“So, does the Scholar know her?”
Normally, Nelson was recruited not for his memories but his knowledge, thus not including the memories of anyone else.
This was done to increase a hero’s loyalty.
Otherwise, if the recruited hero still remembered their former master,
There would be a fear that they would run away as soon as they were recruited, let alone join the territory.
Zhang Bin replied, “He said it’s written on the pattern, he can figure it out, but it may not necessarily be the hero’s prefix, it could be a title given by followers or citizens.”
Fang Hao understood. So, the hero’s prefix wasn’t Gold Queen, but she was obsessed with gold and thus called Gold Queen.
That’s strangely similar to his own hobbies.
“Can he estimate her power?”
“Scholar said it’s quite high, he recommended not to risk it.”
Fang Hao thought for a while, and continued: “This Gold Queen should be in a deep sleep, ask Nelson if there’s a way to recruit her, to make her join my territory?”
Zhang Bin quickly got a response.
He said: “The Scholar said you can try, if she has needs, she may join the territory, but if she’s really an undead queen, the chance of recruiting her isn’t high.”
So, it seems, she’s easier to recruit when she’s destitute.
Why would she work for you when she’s a queen who lacks nothing?
Fang Hao responded, “Her status probably isn’t very good, I’ll come for Nelson when it’s time and let him try.”
Zhang Bin replied, “I told Scholar Nelson, do you have anything else, boss? If not, I’ll head back, it’s too cold in this museum, I feel like my Yang energy isn’t sufficient.”
“Alright, you go ahead.”
“Okay.”
He ended the chat.
Fang Hao recontemplated the layout and location of the entire underground palace.
Although the location of the underground palace was two days away, it was still within the range of Silver Wing City.
Building an Undead’s underground palace under the watchful eyes of the church took quite some audacity.
Add to that the few guards within the palace.
And the pyramid-like design of the palace.
All these made Fang Hao more curious about this Gold Queen.
Now that he has found her, he definitely wouldn’t give up, he would let Nelson try when it’s time.
If that fails, he’ll figure out another way.
…
After having figured everything out, Fang Hao left his room.
As soon as he left his room.
He saw Li Rong wearing a red robe.
Seeing Fang Hao, her eyes betrayed a bit of reproach, “I left the door for you last night, you didn’t really come.”
Uh…
“Stop kidding.”
Fang Hao sat down nearby and started to have breakfast there.
After breakfast, Li Rong habitually lit a cigarette.
With a light clap of her hands, militiamen came in from outside carrying treasure chests one after another.
“Eight treasure chests, all filled with silver, are all here.”
