Chapter 847: Belem Ice Lake

"Do you know where the Renault people's hometown is?" Leo asked Sylvia, who was still studying the detector, when he was unable to find the information he wanted from his information.

"Do you still need to ask?" Sylvia looked at Leo in confusion and said, "Of course they are from the Northern Icefield."

"I know they are from the North Icefield," Leo saw that Sylvia had understood his mistake and added: "Where is the North Icefield I want to ask?"

Sylvia was about to answer Leo's question, but after a question passed in her mind, she found that she could not find the answer.

The Renos from Daliat is from the northern ice field of the Velon continent. This is a common thing for the entire Velon world, but what's strange is that everyone else doesn't know more about the Renos. The information Sylvia has seen before does not mention the hometown of the Renos, as if the Renos suddenly appeared in this world, just like they suddenly perished.

"If you want to investigate the information of the Renault people, the Royal Academy of Flane should have it. They once specially revised a history of the Northern tribes. However, for some political reasons, the book was not published, but only printed and stored in the Royal Academy and the Royal Library." Sylvia thought for a moment, gave suggestions, and then asked: "Why suddenly ask the hometown of the Renault people? Do they have any questions?"

"There is a little problem." Leo nodded, pointed to the universal recorder and the detector on his wrist, and said, "I just read the original information in the detector through this thing and found that the ancestors of the Renault people knew how to use this device from the starry sky intact. Therefore, the open and honest people must have systematically contacted the items left behind in the starry sky, and those items are also likely to be in the hometown of the Renault people."

"They may also bring the things here?" Sylvia questioned, lined up the detectors, and said, "Didn't this thing be brought by them?"

"Indeed, this kind of small thing can be taken away, but..." Leo pointed to the information recording the metal blocks at the bottom of the lake and said: "They should not be able to take away things as big as the bottom of the Beren Ice Lake."

Sylvia did not refute Leo's idea, but instead shifted the topic back, saying, "When we return to the Viron Continent, we can go to the imperial capital. I happen to have some family things to be retrieved."

Leo nodded after hearing this. In fact, before that, they mentioned that they would go south after returning to the Weilun Continent.

If you want to say safety, you will naturally travel west from the north, walk through the Hannosa League, then pass through the ruins of Miria, browse through the Dibia Mountains again, or take a boat south along the coastline, and return to the United Kingdom.

However, Sylvia denied this safe road and decided to cross the Fran Empire on the east coast and follow this dangerous road.

You should know that whether it is Sylvia Belmont or Earl Maupassant, they are all in the top ten in the ranking of wanted criminals in the Flan Empire. There are countless people in the official and civilian countries who want to catch her. Taking the southward route of the Flan Empire is like seeking death.

However, when Sylvia made the decision, Leo did not dissuade her. He didn't know why Sylvia chose this path, but he knew that there was no need to ask more questions, just to say that he would walk with her.

It seems that Sylvia decided to go to the Fran Empire, which should be related to her family's belongings.

On that day, the political situation of the Villon continent changed drastically. The sudden establishment of the United Kingdom not only caught the Fran Empire off guard, but even some people in the United Kingdom were completely confused. Sylvia was one of them.

It is precisely because of this reason that Sylvia was unable to transfer his family's property and items, which made all of these items sealed by the Flan Empire. After that, these things, including the Belmont Manor, were auctioned and all items were lost.

Although Sylvia used some means to retrieve most of the family's belongings, there were still many important things that were still in the hands of others. This had become a thorn in her heart. She decided to find an opportunity to pull out the thorn no matter what, and Leo's colleagues were a good opportunity.

Leo knew Sylvia's idea very well, so he did not persuade Sylvia.

The two of them did not have to talk in depth after meeting the Weilun Continent, but returned to the Beren Ice Lake and carefully studied the data. When they felt that it was almost the same, they decided to check it on site and test the detector.

When he learned that the two were going to inspect the huge metal remains in the water of the Beren Ice Lake, the scholars in the camp naturally expressed their objection. The reason for his objection was not because he was worried that the two of them would find something, but now it was the coldest winter, and the divers they recruited could not get into the water in such a cold season. They would not have any effect on surveying there.

However, after Leo and Sylvia showed the pass of the Snow Queen, the scholar supervisor had no way to stop the two of them, but instead sent a recruited diver as a guide to lead the two to the passage they built in the water ruins.

Afterwards, the three of them rode the northern pack beasts toward the location of the passage.

On the way, Leo also asked the diver about the water ruins, but he did not get any useful information. It was not because the diver wanted to keep a secret, but because the diver was recruited this summer. After coming here, he only performed three missions in total, and those three missions were searching for other waters and had never touched the metal block ruins in the water.

Like all the recruited divers here, this young man named Tarank is also a family member. In fact, nearly half of the divers here are fellow members of the village where Tarank is located. Almost all the people in their village are family members.

Their tribe was originally a small tribe on the east coast of Saville that made a living by fishing. Because the ancestors of the tribe believed in an evil god in the water, their bloodline was infected, and their entire tribe became the relative of the evil god.

However, the evil god was finally asked for advice by the church of the Lord of All Things, and the evil god was also killed. Their tribe was even wanted by the Savile Church and the official government, which forced them to escape from Savile and settle down in the frozen soil of the northern ice field, and still make a living by fishing.

Because Daliat had a strong repulsive attitude towards his family, like the southern countries, their tribe had to hide their true identities. Although most of them would encounter physical mutations when they became adults, all of these mutations were hidden, such as webbed feet, gills behind their ears, etc. These invisible mutations will not only not affect their lives, but will instead facilitate them to go out to sea to catch fish.

Only a few people will undergo large-scale mutations, such as growing scales, completely deforming their heads, and turning into monsters with half-human and half-fish. Most of these tribesmen will develop mental disorders and other problems as their bodies change. In the end, they will not be the rest of the Shanghai people, but will enter the sea one day and eventually disappear from the eyes of the tribesmen.

Some people say that these people who became fishmen died in the sea, but some people say that they met some fishmen when they went out to fish in the sea. These people seemed to have established an undersea village in the sea.

Later, Lea Vinistein became the Queen of Daliad, and the entire Daliad became a shelter for the family. Only then did their tribe truly settle down. In addition to inheriting their family business and going out to sea to catch fish, the people in their tribe joined Daliad's navy, and some of them became officers because of their military achievements.

Tarante originally wanted to join Daliat's navy, but because of his strong cold resistance and deep diving ability, he was assigned to Beren Ice Lake and became one of the hired divers.

Although he lost the way to rely on the army to improve his social status, he also received financial compensation. It is no exaggeration to say that a newcomer like him who has only been in a few months and performed several missions will have a few months of salary for other people of the army for several years. If he could find any prehistoric civilization items at the bottom of the lake, the rewards he received were enough to allow him to live a very rich life.

So he will try his best to take on tasks from scholars. No veterans here will take on tasks like this after the winter, because such tasks are very dangerous and their salary will not be much higher than ordinary tasks. Only newcomers like him will be so enthusiastic.

Perhaps because no one in the camp was willing to talk to him, when he heard Leo asking about some prehistoric ruins at the bottom of the Beren Ice Lake, he had no idea of ​​keeping it secret, and he talked endlessly about everything he knew.

What he said is not exactly the same as what Leo and Sylvia saw in the information, and there are many secrets of conversations between divers.

For example, a diver once saw the metal remains at the bottom of the lake emitting light one night. He thought this might be an opportunity, so he sneaked into the ice lake without notifying the camp.

As a result, after approaching the metal ruins, he heard unknown sounds. According to his description, the sound was very loud and terrifying, just like a murmur from the abyss, and even covering his ears could not stop him from hearing this sound.

At that time, he was very scared and stopped approaching the metal ruins. Then he returned to the camp and reported the matter to the camp scholars.

But after hearing the report, the camp scholar immediately took people to the metal ruins, but he heard nothing, so the scholar thought that the diver was lying and wanted to use it to defraud the bonus.

However, after the third day, the diver suddenly mutated rapidly while performing his mission, and his entire person completely became a clan, turning into a pair of algae-like monsters, and attacking others like crazy, and was eventually destroyed by the troops in the camp.

The scholars in the camp did not think that the sudden mutation of the diver was due to the incident two days ago, but the divers in the camp believed that this matter was related. Therefore, afterwards, as long as the metal remains in the water were shining, all divers would not go into the water. Even if they used excessive rewards and tough military orders, no one would step into the Beren Ice Lake.

I don’t know if it was a coincidence or Tarank’s crow’s mouth that had worked. When the three of them arrived at the entrance of the passage near the underwater metal ruins, they found waves of light shining out from under the ice.

"Damn it! Sorry, Mr. Leo, I can't get into the water later." The moment he saw the light appear, Tarank immediately said to Leo nervously, his tone also seemed very serious.

"Don't worry, I didn't plan to let you go from the water from the beginning." Leo looked at the light that was shining under the ice, and immediately understood what was going on. He reached out and patted Talank's somewhat stiff shoulder, indicating that he didn't have to be nervous.

In fact, after Tarantq mentioned the diver's experience just now, he vaguely guessed what was going on. The so-called light is actually the cabin underwater is sending signal waves outwards. This signal wave will be hidden in the universe's environment full of various rays, presenting a state that is invisible to the naked eye. However, in the environment full of special energy in the Viron world, it becomes a state like light waves.

The so-called murmur of the abyss that diver heard was actually just a murmur generated by the friction between signal waves and environmental energy. Ordinary people cannot hear such subtle murmurs. Some families have special hearing, and the murmurs are amplified a lot under the action of water waves, and they are spread through vibrations. Even if they cover their ears, they cannot stop this vibration.

As for the diver's sudden change, it should be that this noise had a blow to his will, and the family blood took the opportunity to backfire and take the initiative, which eventually led to him becoming a complete family.

Although Leo has learned the details of what divers call a terrifying light, he has not explained it to Tarank, because judging from Tarank's current state, any explanation is futile.

So, after arriving at the location, he did not even let Tarank follow them into the passage, but instead ordered Tarank to look after the pack beasts at the entrance of the passage, and then he and Sylvia entered the drainage passage specially for winter diving exploration.

The passage is located about 500 meters away from the lakeside. The interior is very narrow and can only accommodate two people in parallel. The passage is inclined downwards, not very much. If it advances about 100 meters, it will reach one end of the waterway. This waterway will extend downwards with a steeper slope until it reaches the ice layer on the lake.
