Chapter 249 Illusion
"So, what do you think? I think the grave is likely to be dominated by some kind of existence."
Heckron's eyes were staring at the carefully cut turf. In addition, the angel statues and goddess statues set up everywhere were also carved with extremely exquisite simplicity, which was breathtaking, and it was obvious that someone was regularly maintained at a glance.
However, in contrast, the large branches standing everywhere in the cemetery were extremely crooked and drooping, creating a gloomy atmosphere. The tombstones were also arranged in an inscription, just like the mouths of an ugly witch, standing everywhere, contrasting with the clean part, creating a strong sense of incongruity.
Someone is managing here. It’s just that person is not a normal person. This kind of chilling premonition surges from the stomach.
In order to drive away the chilling feeling, Heckron turned his consciousness to the huge building. There is a spiritual temple in the cemetery, east, west, south, and north, and a magnificent spiritual temple stands in the center. Eight tall statues of warriors surround the Great Spirit Temple, with a sense of oppression, as if they exude the will of determination to execute all disasters and illegal people near the Spirit Temple.
"The grass and trees in the cemetery are so clean, there is not even a single moss, so someone must take care of them carefully. But who will be?"
Indeed, when each team—except "Tianwu"—is conducting documentary investigations, it feels a little strange.
When I went to the scene, I looked around, except for the fields, and it was also fields. It was really not suitable for building graves.
First of all, it is really unreasonable and inconvenient to build such a majestic tomb in a place far away from people simply from the convenience of the tomb.
It is understandable if it is not used to worship the dead, but to convey the great achievements of the old friend to the monument of later generations. Because people sometimes cover monuments where great achievements are achieved.
But in this way, this immortal achievement has not been passed down from historical facts, which makes people feel unnatural. The information obtained by all the teams, but without any relevant information, means that the remains may have been erased from history.
Everything is so wrong.
The wonderful foreign body feeling that something stuck in the throat caused them to frown.
"However, depending on who lives in the ruins, it may cause a major incident. How is the investigation in this regard?"
"...It's better not be an innocent commoner."
"——The think tanks of each team have just discussed that the union does not have any information on any ruins in this area, and is a little too far from the nearby villages, so it is unlikely that ordinary people will live. If there is, illegal occupiers or monsters who cannot show up in public - because there is no footprint of the ruins, everyone speculates that either the living creatures do not need food or the ruins can be self-sufficient. However, because there is too little information currently known, it will continue to speculate that it will be limited by stereotypes, which will make the scope of thinking narrower. Therefore, the investigation of the ruins ends here."
When a ruin is discovered, the intelligence will be transmitted to the state's administrative organs through the Adventurer Union, and the first discoverer can have a certain period of investigation. At present, under this regulation, as long as the Li family or Adventurer Union has not yet obtained the information, even if the person who illegally occupied the ruins will be acquiesced.
This regulation adopts the policy of "it is better to kill by mistake than to release by mistake".
Perhaps this policy is extremely unreasonable, but in this world, humans are very weak creatures. So if there is a group of unknown existences occupying the edge of the human world, it will cause great trouble.
In fact, about twenty years ago, an organization called Zhilanon occupied the remains and conducted a terrifying experiment, causing serious disasters. Just as everyone stood by because of insufficient intelligence, a small-scale city was destroyed.
In order not to repeat the same mistakes, the union will make such a regulation.
"Hey, in normal circumstances, it's probably the undead again. If the undead occupy the remains, it must be swept away as soon as possible and use blessings to drive away negative forces, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable, right?"
"As you said, the consequences are really unimaginable. Leaving the undead alone may lead to stronger undead people. Powerful undead people will appear in ruins and other places, for this reason."
"It would be great if Gorem, who was only ordered by his master in the past, was cleaning up the abandoned ruins, which would save much trouble. So what would you plan to do in the future?"
"—I think Herkron should attend the meeting in my place."
"Don't care, the other team leaders didn't participate? This is called "Putting the best of your talents, yes."
Heckron blinked at Aishi and she sighed deliberately.
"——Anyway, all the squads will start to act after nightfall. Each squad invades from all directions and gathers in the huge spiritual temple in the center."
"So that's it, because invasions during the day are easily discovered."
"--right."
The surrounding terrain is wide and there are no surveillance or travelers. So it seems that it is okay to invade directly now, but it is still necessary to prevent unexpected situations. It is safer to move in the dark.
Besides, although it is only before nightfall, you may get some information by continuously observing the remains. This time there is a time limit for the work, but it is not a pity to spend some time here. Think tanks should think so,
Maybe they actually want to monitor for a few more days.
"But just use "transparency", can't we be able to detect safely?"
"—We have also thought about this. However, since there is a possibility of trouble, it is better to solve it all at once. At least a small part can be investigated."
There are many ways to see through transparent magic, which is not perfect. If the worker uses magic to approach the ruins and is discovered by some people - the person in charge of guarding the ruins, the other party will of course increase the alert level and may not be able to invade again within several days.
In order to avoid this situation, they will establish a way for everyone to act simultaneously.
Understanding this, Heckron nodded. Although it was a bit loophole, it should be considered a way of combat that balanced danger and mission, which was closest to the limit.
Sydney and Yichen, hiding in the dark, looked at a group of people who didn't know what they were doing, and then Yichen suddenly said:
"These people may have fallen into their illusion! Next, they will become fish in the net!"
"—What! Illusion?"
Sydney looked at them. It was indeed a few of them who looked very strange, as if they were exploring something, but in fact there was nothing in front of them.
This group of people was just a wide field in Xiyue Canyon, but their group of people seemed to have discovered something.
