Chapter six hundred and nineteen group destruction
"That's it?" The above is the information that Yi Liuling and others temporarily checked before leaving. When they saw this, they sighed like this.
Indeed, if the story ends here, it can be regarded as an urban strange story in Yiliuling's hometown, but it is not surprising in the magical eighth world. There are too many means to do all this.
However, what really attracted everyone's attention was the subsequent development.
Maple Leaf County itself is a region focusing on tourism and commerce. And because it was originally surrounded by human territories, it was rarely invaded by demons after it became land. Based on such geographical conditions, Maple Leaf High School, which is responsible for this place, is naturally not a school famous for its battles, and it is impossible for it to handle so many bizarre events like Soga High School. However, the teacher in this matter simply characterized the incident as a tomb robber accidentally touching the defense mechanism in the ancient tomb of the mermaids and was hit by the curse magic.
So the body was buried, the survivor was placed alone, and the local mausoleum was located. Maple Leaf High School did not intend to hand it over to the scholars' association, but to conduct research by professionals in its own school. Maple Leaf High School also has scholars in related majors such as archaeology. How could this relic of the Warcraft civilization that may be related to a world-wide knowledge within its own sphere of influence be handed over to outsiders?
Not only that, they also concealed the truth of the incident and ended the investigation in a hurry.
It was a very easy thing to hide the truth this time, not only because the incident itself did not cause much fluctuation at that time, but also because the scholar who found the funeral object was not a core member of the Scholars Association, but just a middle-aged man who had been promoted to a bachelor's degree for many years.
Since there was no definite evidence to prove that the existence of the Kingdom of Laleye, this kind of thing that could not be studied quickly became a beautiful legend. The related documents found in Insmos highlighted the research value in other places because they recorded some customs, festivals and ancient characters from millions of years ago.
The research topic this middle-aged man did when he was admitted to the apprentice was related to this. As soon as he saw the runes carved on the burial objects, he remembered the days when he was bald and could recognize them immediately. But at the same time, he thought that there would be no more academic development and realized that this was his opportunity, so he came here to investigate and did not even tell his direct supervisor.
Eventually, he reached an agreement with Maple Leaf High School to assist the latter in blocking the news, while he participated in the excavation of the tomb.
The record of this matter came to an abrupt end here, because the above parts were found in the bachelor's weekly diary, and the content of his last note was that the excavation work was about to officially begin. Something must have happened after that, so that the bachelor did not even hold on until the next time he wrote the weekly diary, Maple Leaf High School was completely destroyed.
Here we have to say that the Scholars Association is very foresighted. They realized very early on that they would inevitably encounter various strange events and might even be in danger of life on the road to exploring knowledge. In the eyes of these academic madmen, it is not a big problem for them to die themselves, but if their efforts are buried as a result, it is absolutely intolerable.
Therefore, writing weekly diary is a habit that every member of the scholar association needs to develop from the first day of his entry, and this is not the only guaranteed method. Many scholars will record audio and video, or set up copies of their research progress in the association to prevent no one from finding it after an accident.
The complete destruction of Maple Leaf High School attracted the attention of Soga High School. After the local tavern notified them, the school sent someone to investigate again and quickly completed the matter. The new Maple Leaf High School was set up in another place in Maple Leaf County.
Regarding the final truth, the teachers of Soga High School did not record any of the documents that can be known to the public, and even the students of Soga High School themselves could not read. However, some locals who helped investigate the matter at that time. According to their statement, in order to find out the truth, the tombs of the speculators who died first were also dug up. But what was surprising was that there were no fish scales on the bodies inside, and they were clearly decaying normal dead people.
Among the first witnesses who claimed to have seen the fish scale corpse were passers-by who were not Maple Leaf High School, but when investigators came to the door, they found that they had all been hung to death. Their neighbors described that these people were behaving like madmen at the last moment of their lives, and some even saw them cutting their skin with blades as if they were going to scrape something off from it.
But no matter what, when Soga High School came, there was a blue sky. After their people visited the tomb, similar strange things did not happen again. Not only that, after studying the treasure map, the school teachers found that it was only one-seventh of the map. So the divination teacher calculated it and found that the whereabouts of the other six clay pots. Based on this, the other six tombs in Maple Leaf County were processed and then left.
The new Maple Leaf High School was scared by the previous incident and honestly invited experts from the Scholar Association to cooperate, and finally restored the true appearance of the Lalaiye Kingdom: this mermaid kingdom does exist, but they did not really get rid of the dependence of the mermaid bloodline on sacred tears, but they have a special secret method that can mass produce sacred tears.
This incident has attracted the attention of scholars who study monsters, because as we all know, although human races are extremely similar to humans, they are monsters after all, and the souls of monsters are not consistent with human races. Just as the mixed races cannot steadily pass on their bloodlines, and the next generation will still return to their original races, human races cannot reproduce without the help of human races.
Therefore, if there is a secret method that can easily obtain the sacred tears without interacting with the human race, then all the mermaids in the world will inevitably go crazy about this.
But unfortunately, although each of these ancient tombs stores different types of things, scholars have not found this secret method in any of them, and it is obvious that it has been lost.
The scholars' association has a good reputation. After learning about this, although some minority groups complained about this and suspected that the human race did not want them to reproduce and grow, most mermaids did not express their protest. Even in some tribes that have existed for a long time, some mermaid elders had privately wondered whether the Lalaiye Kingdom would be destroyed in such a strange way, and even left a living mouth because they had such something that violated the laws of the Eighth World.
Logically speaking, the investigation of Yi Liuling and others should have ended here, but by chance, among the Soga High School teachers who participated in the investigation, there was an old acquaintance of several people, that was the fortune teller who could calculate and calculate. She was the cloaked woman who once applied magnetic enchantment to Angela's mouth. She was also one of Professor Ju Ji's disciples, Linghu, a professor of divination department.
