Chapter 1196 - 480: Underground Transmission_3
They read books, focusing on books that are useful for their specific needs.
Lucilia simply loves to read.
Though she may not be able to remember all of history completely, she can basically remember important figures and rulers of significant events.
This is what gives Lucilia the essence of a walking library.
Through Lucilia’s thorough analysis and summary, information about these vast ruins is essentially collected.
If we want to gather more, we’ll have to dig deep.
After listening, Alka took out the map from his hand.
He gazed at the light.
Watching Alka’s actions, everyone silently closed their mouths and remained quiet.
Although Alka never explained in detail to everyone how his treasure hunting ability works, they spent over a decade together day and night.
They have hunted for treasures numerous times.
They have already inferred the general scope of Alka’s treasure hunting abilities from his various actions.
For Alka, whether the map is big or detailed doesn’t matter, but it must be accurate.
Meaning, if you draw a mountain or mark a tree on the map, those corresponding things must exist.
So overly detailed maps might not be useful, whereas rough maps could be more to Alka’s liking.
Because at least what’s drawn is accurate.
For treasure hunting, the most important information.
It is important to Alka, but the crucial point is not all the information, but some key phrases or introductions to important information.
Alka seems capable of expanding into unknown information through these key details, completely unknown or unexplored information.
Perhaps this is the Son of God, after all, he’s the Divine’s child.
Indeed, in everyone’s eyes, Alka is pretty much confirmed as the Holy Mother’s child.
It’s not just Alka’s usual performances; it’s also information they sometimes gather from their interactions with others.
After all, it’s not just Alka and the other three from the Holy Mother Church on the ship.
All sorts of church members are here.
Some rumors about Alka are even known through their respective churches.
As people who have spent so much time with Alka, these rumors might sound absurd to outsiders but seem to have some truth.
For instance, Alka received revelations from the Holy Mother multiple times, even met her face to face.
Moreover, Alka, who met the Holy Mother directly, was not excited post-event and acted indifferent.
Alka never prays, nor does he sincerely offer prayers to the Holy Mother.
But the Holy Light energy on him is practically visible to the naked eye.
Important rituals to Alka always involve the Holy Mother’s participation.
For example, years ago, when he accepted allegiance from those spirits, the Holy Mother even bestowed some blessings upon them.
If this isn’t the Son of God, then what is?
Alka never speaks of it, and they wouldn’t say much either.
Perhaps this is Alka’s secret.
Alka is not very aware of what goes through everyone’s minds, but if he knew, he would surely be amused and perplexed.
Although, in some respects, their thoughts might not be entirely off.
Right then, Alka’s attention was fully focused on the map.
[Return]
[Difficulty: Saralan-Historian]
[Fame: 363]
[Treasure Information: A treasure called Return, placed within the modern historical ruins in the Saralan Empire.
To enter the ruins and find the correct entrance, this information is hidden within the history of the Saralan Empire.
The ruins once played a major role during the second conflict, leaving behind these remnants.
This is a site of a ceremonial artifact, and it seems not just simple at the surface; internally, underground, it seems there are hidden places.
Return means the return of time.]
Alka looked at the new expanded entries in the treasure information. Although not perfect, they have presented the location of the treasure to Alka comprehensively.
Right beneath these ruins.
As for why Chadite couldn’t scan it.
The reason is that in underground spaces, especially important ones, they would typically use various materials to shield from scans or exploration, or spell arrays.
Just like the underground area of the Moon Worship Sect’s temple before.
With countless spells and peculiar treasures existing in this world, numerous exploration methods for uncovering underground secrets and spaces abound.
To counter these methods, certain hidden areas naturally employ various defenses.
The Dream Realm is one such example.
Upon understanding this, everyone naturally started to take action.
Once it’s known that an entrance is hidden underground, others have a target, making it very easy to find.
Very soon, they located the entrance.
"Based on the ruins here and the surrounding geological conditions, the possibility of an underground layer below is the greatest."
Simon stomped the ground beneath him as he spoke.
With Simon’s confirmation, everyone started digging.
Soon, through observations and analysis, they uncovered a collapsed entrance.
At the entrance, they saw man-made stone walls and hanging lamps.
This entrance slanted, with rocks collapsed and sealing above, and the stairs leading downward should lead to the entrance below.
The group passed through the entrance, with a dull atmosphere emanating from within.
No one knows how long it has been buried underground here.
They trod down the stone stairs that had been abandoned for a thousand years into the depths below.
A few light orbs floated around them, meanwhile flying ahead to explore the darkness in front of them.
As they just stepped through the tunnel into the underground area,
a voice suddenly echoed from the front.
"You have finally arrived."
