"Mr. Nightmare Man, look, this is carved by the Phecda Hero Gu Jun." Peacock said with respect.
Gu Jun stared at the stone on the sand and slowly walked towards it. The curtain of night had gradually fallen, and the pitch-black darkness devoured the desert. However, the mark on the stone was still very conspicuous. The Ancient Seal looked like a deer's antler or a tree branch. There was a slanted trunk in the middle, 3 branches on the left and 2 on the right.
The closer he got, the more uncomfortable he felt. He did not like this mark.
Or rather, the dark energy inside him did not like this mark.
When this mark was carved on the stone, it appeared to possess a unique power.
"What does this mark mean?" Gu Jun purposely asked Peacock. The carvings on the stone looked quite ancient, at least they were not carved recently.
"We see it as a blessing." Peacock said proudly, "For the past 300 years, it has been with our tribe. Even during the most difficult times at Leng, our tribe did not lose this relic, it is our totem. "
300 years. Gu Jun frowned. Barcé the Wise had disappeared for 300 years and Peacock said their tribe had moved into this world 300 years ago.
300 years ago, the Ancient Seal appeared at the peak of Hatheg Kola Mountain and this stone …
The other stones around it were just normal boulders, only this stone had the Ancient Seal on it.
Gu Jun walked forward and bent down to touch the uneven surface of the stone. He could not feel anything but the feeling of disgust intensified.
In fact, he felt like he was not touching a stone but some kind of sticky liquid.
But at that moment, he noticed there was a glowing gap on the stone. The inner layer of the stone was different, it appeared to be … opaline. He had no idea whether opaline was a stone unique to Earth or not but this one was definitely different from the others here, it appeared to be a foreign object.
More confusion swirled in his mind. Gu Jun first asked, "Where are the other relic?"
"The others …" Peacock hesitated, "I've only heard of them but I've never seen them in person. Only the tribe leaders have access to them."
"Bring me to them." Gu Jun looked around. "Be it the tribe leader or the Wise One, once I've seen the relic, I'll give you the Pnakotic Manuscripts."
He realized if Peacock was just imagining things, it would be best to cooperate with her until the end to get more information.
As he expected, Peacock walked back and mumbled to the air. Then she turned to say, "Mr. Nightmare Man, I hope you will keep your promise, this way please."
Gu Jun followed her and so did Malachite.
Even though the Zoogs were nervous, they could not afford to miss out on a show like this, so they followed behind Gu Jun.
Perhaps in Peacock's imagination, Gu Jung, Peacock, Peacock, Man, Temple, Malachite, Temple. But the two who were leading the way had not even walked for twenty meters. They were still at the edge of the lake when Peacock lifted her head to look at something. "We're here, our temple."
Ever since they arrived at the Temple, she had been acting strangely, or perhaps she had always been like that.
Gu Jun followed them into the shrine. He practically walked in circles on the spot. After going through a series of rituals, the tribe leader finally took out the other sacred relic — Peacock dug something out from a pile of weeds and handed it to Gu Jun. Gu Jun followed them into the shrine and walked in circles for a few more times. The tribe leader had to go through a series of solemn rituals before the tribe leader finally brought out another sacred relic — Peacock dug something out from a pile of weeds and handed it to Gu Jun.
It was a large scale. Gu Jun studied it and his brows furrowed.
The scale was about the size of an A4 paper, it was as thick as a finger. It was hard and covered in layers of delicate scales. It glowed with a metallic sheen.
"Have you seen something like this before?" He asked the Zoogs. This should be something that once grew on some kind of creature.
The Elder Zoog walked over to touch and sniff it. Then he clapped his head and said, "Nope, but I'm sure this is not a fish scale. It doesn't have that disgusting fishy smell." The Zoogs said this was the first time they had seen something like this. They did not expect the City of Kindle to have such a treasure. They could sell it to the black merchants for a lot of chickens.
"According to legend, this is a scale left behind by a patient with Mutated Scale Disease." Peacock said, "A great person."
However, she could not tell who it was. This was how her old world legends were. Other than Gu Jun and Wu Shiyu, she could not name anyone else.
Now that Gu Jun had asked her about the so-called wise doctors, it was the same.
"What other relics are there?" He had to ask.
"The tribe leader wishes for these Zoogs to leave." Peacock followed his request and continued, "This is related to some of our tribe's secrets …"
Gu Jun nodded. Malachite led the disgruntled Zoogs away. Actually, they were only about 30 metres away but it felt like a long distance.
Peacock dug out something else from the bush. It was a small piece of animal skin with tattered edges. She handed it to him seriously, "This is the last relic."
He accepted it. It was the skin of some unknown creature. It was old but sturdy. There were two lines of blurry bloody words on it, they were also mutated Chinese characters.
"Out of the Talisman, Death, Phantom, Madness.
The mysteries of heaven are in chaos, disasters are born, rebellions arise, and the great collapse occurs.]
"What do these mean?" Gu Jun narrowed his eyes. He felt like he was hallucinating. "Peacock, repeat everything you heard from the tribe leader and the professors."
This was the first time Peacock had heard these secrets. As she listened, her face tightened. "After the ten thousand kindling migrated to Leng, they tried everything they could to preserve their knowledge and history. This animal skin is one of them but it was lost over the years until only this piece was left. "
Suddenly, she was stunned, as if she had received a great subversion. She asked in surprise, "Dr. Bright Jade, are you serious? But! Oh … "
"Prof Bright Jade said that the golden age of the last era was not that peaceful." Peacock's voice was blank like she refused to believe these words. "Based on rumors and research, 'chaos in Phecda' and 'rebellion' meant that the Phecda Alliance's predecessor, Phecda, had an internal rebellion. These traitors caused a very serious disaster and caused the era of great change."
Her voice became softer until it was almost a mumble.
Based on her knowledge, human beings were very united. Phecda and the Global Supernatural Alliance were the light that led humanity forward.
"Rebellion?" Gu Jun's eyebrows twitched like he was stabbed by a knife. Complicated emotions roiled within him. However, he did not think that this possibility was impossible.
He did not know much about the Global Supernatural Alliance but he knew that Phecda lacked manpower. They did not even have enough manpower to isolate the victims of Nightmare Illness.
Phecda needed to recruit more members. If the Spell Department was established, there would be another round of recruitment …
Furthermore, the traitors did not have to be among the new members, the old members could change their stance and ideology. In fact, the traitors might have already infiltrated Phecda for a long time.
