After divorcing my celebrity wife, I became the world's richest person

Chapter 449: Seal of Solomon



The room wasn't very large, and the items within were haphazardly placed and covered with a thick layer of dust, likely the storeroom of this level of the cabin.

When the chaos erupted earlier, Ding Nolan had his men search the area and finally, they discovered this place.

At the very back of the storeroom were three large chests, all treasures of the third Ramses.

When Chen Yu opened the chests, he was utterly astonished, especially by one of the gold scepters inside.

Every pharaoh of the Ramses Dynasty would possess their own unique gold scepter, varying only in size.

The one that Jin Lingsu held was already quite significant, but this one was twice as large as that one.

Ding Nolan had two subordinates guard the door while he maneuvered his wheelchair to Chen Yu's side.

"Mr. Chen, according to my analysis, there should be other chests in the cabin. Shall I have my men search again?"

Chen Yu didn't quite know what to say; the seven men had gone through so much trouble to transport the treasures from the ruins, schemed against each other for so long, and three lives had been lost in the process.

In the end, the treasures were just carelessly discarded here.

"The remaining treasures should all be hidden in the warehouses on each floor. After you find them, do not make it known; concentrate them in one place."

Once his subordinates received the order, they immediately set to work, and before long, they brought back several large chests.

Chen Yu couldn't help but feel excited, he hadn't expected this accidental windfall from the expedition.

Just then, a commotion erupted in the hall.

An elderly man, clasping a wooden box, lay half-reclined in the center of the hall, muttering incomprehensible words.

A few burly men were continuously assaulting him, seemingly trying to snatch the wooden box away.

Chen Yu frowned, thinking that even at sea, there should be some rules.

Robbing someone in broad daylight, what kind of behavior was this?

Ding Nolan immediately understood Chen Yu's sentiments and sent two men to intervene.

But those ruffians were incredibly overbearing and did not take Ding Nolan seriously at all.

Chen Yu's frown deepened as he strode forward.

"Gentlemen, the old man is advanced in years, you shouldn't bully him like this."

The ruffians sized up Chen Yu and one of them raised his fist, ready to strike.

Chen Yu was not one to indulge them, he launched a powerful punch and sent the fellow flying.

The rest of them stood frozen on the spot, not daring to make another move.

"Who is it that dares to lay hands on my men?"

A very haughty-looking young man, surrounded by a group of bodyguards, slowly emerged.

Ding Nolan's pupils dilated suddenly.

"Calon! It's you, I should have known. Who else would dare to be so presumptuous as to bully an elder on board the ship."

Calon was also taken aback upon seeing Ding Nolan.

"You're already crippled like this and you still dare meddle in my business? Do you want your upper body to end up disabled here as well?"

Ding Nolan was seething with rage, controlling his wheelchair as he slowly advanced.

"Do you have any idea that this Mr. Chen is a true Knights of the Round Table member? To provoke him, do you think your life is too long?"

Calon's body shuddered violently, his eyes filled with terror as he stared fixedly at Chen Yu.

"The Knights of the Round Table would actually come to sit on a boat like this?"

Chen Yu didn't want to deal with the guy, so he squatted down, helped the old man up, and took the box from his hand at the same time.

"Old man, what exactly happened?"

The old man was holding the box and sobbing bitterly.

"I just took my family's heirloom to him for an appraisal, I never thought these people would insist it belonged to their family and falsely accuse me of being a thief."

Chen Yu frowned and opened the box directly, discovering a square, ink-black seal inside.

The object looked simple and unadorned, but there were some very strange characters engraved at the bottom of the seal.

Chen Yu took a quick look and found that the characters were actually Cybele script.

"This is the Seal of Solomon!"

Calon burst out laughing, "It seems that this gentleman's origins must be extraordinary, to recognize at a glance that this is the Seal of Solomon."

Martin Nolan sighed softly and stepped closer to Chen Yu, lowering his voice.

"This guy is a descendant of Solomon!"

Chen Yu exhaled lightly, if that were indeed the case, calling the old man a thief might not be too much of a stretch.

But the Solomon Empire was an ancient country from over three thousand years ago, and many things had since been lost.

Maybe this object had been passed down in the old man's family for generations.

Chen Yu had dealt with cases concerning the ownership of ancient artifacts before, and most of them ended unresolved.

"Judging from the quality of the seal, it is undoubtedly authentic! Moreover, its luster indicates that the old man has preserved it very well."

After admiring the seal for a moment, Chen Yu went straight to Calon.

"Since you are a descendant of the Solomon Empire, the ownership of this seal is beyond doubt! However, since the old gentleman has preserved it for such a long time, shouldn't he be properly compensated?"

Calon was momentarily stunned.

If Chen Yu were anyone else, Calon would never agree to such a suggestion, but if Chen Yu were truly a Knight of the Round Table, he couldn't refuse.

"Our ancestor's treasures have always been passed down within our family. This old geezer doesn't even have the surname Solomon, yet he has our precious seal. Isn't that theft?"

Calon defended himself again and took out a token from his person.

Martin Nolan was also stunned when he saw the token, not having expected that Calon had connections with the Lakato Family.

The current Lakato Family was united and as powerful as the Knights of the Round Table.

Indeed, in such a case, Chen Yu really couldn't handle this guy.

But what neither of them expected was for Chen Yu to directly take out a master token of the Lakato family from his person.

There were only two such tokens within the Lakato family, one of which was in the hands of the old man in the mountains, and the other had been given to the family's second-in-command.

Calon's breathing became hasty, "How is this possible? If you're a Knight of the Round Table, how did you also join the Lakato family as their second-in-command?"

Chen Yu immediately put on an arrogant manner and took out another token from the Xuanqing Sect.

"It's mainly because my charm is too great, all the powers are crying and begging me to join them, especially the Lakato family, who appointed me as the Grand Sorcerer the moment I joined! It's nearly driven me mad."

In the Lakato Family, the most important position is that of the Wizard, and the title of Grand Sorcerer is almost a position above the old man in the mountains, allowing for easy control of all of the Lakato family's resources.

For such an existence, killing a Calon would be as easy as pie!
