Chapter 719 Archaeological Team
“Who? Is it ‘God’s Will’ them? Or ‘Ye Mingzhu’?” Bing Zhixie said in her heart. He has not seen these people since last night. Logically speaking, they should have been here long ago, but it has been an hour or two since he entered the valley, and it is true that there is no one in the valley.
A lot of people came, a big group, obviously not ‘God’s Will’ and ‘Ye Mingzhu’. There are only five people in the Iron Curtain team, only six including Leslie, and there are only eight people in the 'God's Will' Lane team. It is impossible for them to come here and go out all night to find their companions before coming back. Although it was unclear what these people were doing, they were definitely not from the "God's Will" and "Ye Mingzhu" group.
Bingzhixie is wary by nature. The purpose of these people's coming is obviously related to the things hidden in the valley. Since the purpose is the same, conflicts are likely to occur once they meet. Before he could figure out who they were, Bing Zhixie didn't want to expose himself, so he immediately returned to the tree and hid in the tree hole formed by the roots.
The people coming are getting closer and closer, and their purpose is very clear, which is the largest tree in the center of the valley. Bing Zhixie could clearly see the people coming through the cracks in the tree roots. There were actually old and young, male and female, among the people coming.
The old man has a gray beard, wears a long magic robe, and holds a scepter in his hand. He looks like a majestic elder. The younger man is seventeen, eighty or nineteen years old. Some are holding books in their hands and wearing clothes with... Some kind of emblem, it seems to be a student in the academy. In addition to these people, there are also a large group of people wearing sophisticated armor and uniform uniforms. It seems that they are either soldiers in the army or government guards, responsible for protecting these scholars and students.
Bing Zhixie remembered that she had heard that government officials had sent several groups of people to investigate, but then those people mysteriously disappeared. Now these people may be another group of people sent by the St. Bikoya government. Approved people.
Among the people who came, there were not many students, only four of them, and there were more elderly people in comparison. At first glance, these old people are well-read, experienced scholars and teachers, and their status is very respected, which can be seen from the exquisite magic robes on their bodies. Bing Zhixie was not as unworldly as other young men. He could see that this kind of magic robe was definitely not something that only rich men could afford. It was a status symbol.
After these people came to the big tree, they chatted with each other for a while and then began to set up tents for camping. It seemed that they planned to stay here for a long time.
Bing Zhixie heard what they said was pretty much what he had guessed.
A young student walked to the tree hole where Bing Zhixie was hiding, looked up at the big tree and said, "Wow, this tree is so big. I have never seen such a big tree. This tree must be several thousand years old." ."
"Well The emblem of Tagg Academy, they are from Sindmoor!" Bing Zhixie saw clearly the emblem on the boy's body through the gap. It was the emblem of the largest and most prestigious college in St. Bikeya, and it was in the same position as the Demon Moon Empire. The same name as Kurantin. Bing Zhixie had been to Xindmore a few years ago, so of course he recognized this emblem.
At this time, another silver-haired student came over: "What do you know, this is obviously a tree demon."
"Tree demon?"
The silver-haired student said : "How could it grow so big if it wasn't a tree demon? Maybe the disappearances here are caused by the trees here. Teacher, don't you think so?"
Before the teacher could speak, a girl with blond hair and a shawl came over and said, "The book says there are many giant trees in the world, as long as you give them enough time and conditions. "Ten Forbidden Lands" mentioned that in the Warcraft Forest, There are many giant trees that can grow to very large They are even fifty meters or a hundred meters in diameter."
The silver-haired student smiled slightly: "The author of this book has never been to the Ten Forbidden Lands at all. Made up based on rumors and hysteria, others have long since People treat it as a joke. Among the ten forbidden areas, except for the Valley of the Dragon Burial, the City of Gale, the Forest of Monsters, the Peak of Dragon Scales, the Realm of Bewilderment, and the Lake of Ghost Fire, the remaining Streams of Water and Clouds and the Abyss of Imprisoned Souls are included. , the Tower of Death and the City of Heaven, there are not yet If someone has discovered it, how can he know what's there? Ruola, you shouldn't believe those ridiculous books easily, they will only mislead you."
The blond girl named Ruola looked at it. He turned to the teacher and looked like he was asking for help.
Their teacher came over and said: "Harry, you can't say that. Books always have their value. I don't know whether the author of "Ten Forbidden Places" has been to the Ten Forbidden Places. In the book Not all the things mentioned are fiction, but Ruola, as Harry said, there are still several places in the ten forbidden areas that have not been discovered, even if they have been discovered. Those forbidden places are not accessible to ordinary people, and according to my understanding of the top ten forbidden places, there are many falsehoods in his book, so the contents in that book can only be read as anecdotes, not complete. Seriously."
Silver-haired Harry looked at Ruola proudly: "Did you hear that, Ruola, I said that the author of that book cannot be trusted."
When Ruola heard the teacher saying the same thing, she nodded to Harry and said, "I understand." Bing Zhixie didn't listen to the nonsense they said, thinking that since they were going to stay here forever, she would always hide in the tree hole. There's no other way. You have to think of a reason to go out. But then I thought, these people are here to explore things here. I don't know what is here, so I might as well stay here for a while and see if I can hear anything from their mouths. Thinking about it, he looked outside through the gap again, and suddenly found that there was an acquaintance among the group of people who came.
They were acquaintances but they were not real acquaintances. They had just met. Bing Zhixie remembered that he had made a big fuss once in Sindmore. It was the first time he and Linda had made a big fuss. During one encounter, she and Linda got into a fight over a small conflict. As a result, this fight summoned the city guards, and the general leading the team was the man in front of them, the Demonic City Ghost General - Galvas!
The reason why Bing Zhixie can recognize this person at a glance is because this person is actually a person that is not easy to forget. He is tall and always likes to wear very large armor. This may be due to an incident he has experienced before. Speaking of this incident, it is also the origin of his nickname "Demon City Ghost General".
At that time, he was still a senior officer in the Royal Guard of St. Bikea, accompanying and escorting the then prince, now the king of St. Bikea, Clemion Radat, to the field training. Every imperial country in the world has this tradition. Before appointing a heir, the king will constantly ask the princes to participate in wars and go to some dangerous places to improve the future heir's ability to deal with crises and various things.
That time Galvas was just one of the officers accompanying them, and their goal was a very dangerous area in the country. As a result, they ran into trouble that time, and they were attacked by a dragon. During the battle, Galvas was burned by the acid blood of the dragon, and 80% of his skin was corroded by the acid blood. The doctor said it was a miracle that he survived, but the muscles on his body were burned into black rotten flesh by acid blood, and there was almost no skin left on his body. His face and body looked like an evil ghost that had been rotting for more than 90 days. , the ears and nose were gone, leaving only a few small black holes, the lips were gone, and the terrifying teeth were directly exposed, which was very terrifying. He was later responsible for the security of the East City of Sindmoor. When the adults and children in the city saw his appearance, they were too frightened to speak. This is how he became known as the "Ghost General of the Demonic City".
At this time, Galvas was directing his men to set up tents and asked some soldiers to go around the valley to see if there was any danger. Pulling him to the middle of the students and teachers, he said to an old man: "Teacher, the rest will be left to us. You can start your work with confidence." His voice was strange, like the vocal cords in his throat. It feels like it's loose, and it always sounds hollow when it's pronounced, and the timbre is unclear.
When several students saw him coming, they all quietly hid far away. Not to mention the young teachers and the soldiers, they were unwilling to get too close to him. After all, he was too scary like that.
The old man said: "There is no hurry at this moment. Also, don't you think the situation here is strange?"
Galvas looked around: "Is there anything strange? ? Aren’t these rocks and trees the same as what we learned before coming? ”
The old man said: "The big trees and stones here are so strangely arranged. I can't tell what these black stones are."
Another teacher next to him said: "The Black Stone Academy here once taught I went back and did some research.”
“Oh, I found something.”
< br>The teacher said: "The black stone contains a very weak magic power, but what kind of magic power it is, I haven't figured out yet."
Galvas said: "This is normal. There are many magic powers in the world. Many things contain magic and energy, this is just one of them.”
The teacher said: "Don't forget, there have been a lot of disappearances here recently. Speaking of which, the college actually agreed to let the students come together. Is it really no problem?"
Galvas laughed and said: " What's the problem? With me and my mentor here, what else will happen? The previous disappearances may have been caused by the monsters in the jungle. There are still some powerful guys in the jungle, and the strength of those little mercenaries If it's not enough, of course there will be problems. But we have a mentor here, a royal mage, and a seal knight, plus me, a violent warrior. With so many elite soldiers we brought before, what can we do? Missing here? Hahahaha..."
Although the young teacher and students were curious to follow, they were still a little worried. When Galvas said this, they felt relieved. What's more, in addition to Galvas and the others, there are many real knights and great magicians here. They are all knowledgeable and capable scholars and teachers. They all have experience in serving in the army. If you want to talk about what difficulties there are in this world, I'm afraid there aren't many that can stump them. Protecting a few students is of course trivial.
Actually, they are not very worried about the dangers of these rocks and giant trees, because these things have been here a long time ago. Such serious things have not been discovered here before, but they only happened recently, so they also feel that these things are caused by the monsters in the dense forest. There must be some ferocious monsters in the jungle recently, and the people who came before are not strong enough. That's why it 'missed'. This can also prove that not everyone who came to Beiwangpo during this period disappeared. Obviously some people were unlucky.
