Elf Tomb Raider

Chapter 557 The life of a smart person is unpretentious and boring!

Through the protective cover, Jiang Sheng carefully looked at the two-meter-high relief.

The god of harvest, Tuyun, is said to be the source of the abundance of Longgong Island.

Because it once blessed this land, Longgong Island can raise many powerful Pokémon.

"Look at its eyes, isn't it a little different? I vaguely sense that the material there is different." Mo Li reminded suddenly.

Jiang Sheng heard the prestige and looked over, and motioned for Kuailong to get taller.

Looking into the relief's eyes, Jiang Sheng found something different.

Two cloudy crystals the size of pigeon eggs are embedded in the eye sockets of the relief.

"There are two crystals, which should be used to store ancient energy and open the final portal. But the crystal is empty and has no energy reaction, so we haven't discovered it before."

Mo Li nodded and said nothing.

"Speaking of which, the metal monster didn't pick them up as sediment." Jiang Sheng mentioned in surprise.

When the metal monster outside heard Jiang Sheng's words, he punched the land cloud relief in the face.

Jiang Sheng: ...

He hurriedly looked at the place where the metal monster dropped its fist, but found that the face of the relief was not damaged at all, and the two crystals embedded in the eye sockets were not shaken off either.

"Huh? Special material? Or hardened?"

Looking around again, the stone wall was integrated, and the metal monster punched the stone wall next to it, and the broken stones splashed.

Only then was he able to confirm that the relief sculpture had been processed, so it was able to stand firm until now, as a mechanism for opening the door.

Jiang Sheng immediately reported to Lu Song through the walkie-talkie that he had gained something on his side, but was told that they had also discovered something on his side.

As expected of an old Jianghu teacher, Lu Song discovered an abnormality on the mountain wall of a sea valley without any prompting.

Now, they have cleaned up half of the attachments on the mountain wall, revealing the relief of the half-roller tail scale armored dragon.

Jiang Sheng knew in his heart that what Teacher Lu Song discovered was indeed one of the four institutions.

The staff tail scale armored dragon on the relief is the most admired dragon Pokémon in the Man Empire.

After learning that Jiang Sheng had cleaned up the reliefs, Lu Song did not ask them to meet up there, but asked them to continue searching in the sea to see if there were any other reliefs.

Jiang Sheng readily agreed and asked Kuailong to continue walking within the designated area, looking for the last two reliefs.

More than an hour later, Jiang Sheng found the last two reliefs one after another. They were a relief of an earthen turtle and a relief of a water arrow turtle.

According to the master, these two Pokémon are the ancient Pokémon closest to the apex of the world, and they have the strength to rival the top legendary Pokémon.

But it is a pity that it was finally sacrificed by the Manchu Empire and became the firewood for the birth of Xinlonggong Island.

Just don't know if they are voluntary or forced.

Although they are very powerful, ancient Pokémon are too restrictive, and ancient energy is the biggest constraint on their actions.

When they lack ancient energy and are at the weakest time in their lives.

Top trainers can catch them with the precise cooperation between many Pokémon.

However, these are not what Jiang Sheng needs to consider.

He is not an archaeologist. Every time he finds a tomb, he only cares about the benefits contained in it.

After collecting the four reliefs, Lu Song asked Jiang Sheng to continue looking for reliefs in the sea, saying that there might be more reliefs.

Jiang Sheng knew the inside story, but it was hard to tell, so he had to stay in the sea and paddle, enjoying the underwater scenery with Mo Li.

The life of an insider is so unpretentious and boring.

He released the marshjump and sea thorn, and wanted them to go to the sea to relax.

But he found himself thinking too much.

One of these two guys is an idiot who only knows how to eat and doesn't know how to behave, and the other is so afraid of Mo Li that he is dying, leaning against him and shivering.

Jiang Sheng had no choice but to feed them some energy cubes and put them back into the elf ball.

It wasn't until noon that Lu Song told them to return to the yacht when he had nothing to gain.

After a brief lunch, four close-up photos of the front of the relief were placed on the table.

"Tudiyun, this is the source of the richness of Dragon Duke Island; the stick-tailed scale-armored dragon is a dragon-type Pokémon that is highly worshiped by the Man Empire.

As for the other earthen turtles and water arrow turtles, I can't find any records about them from historical materials.

But there is no doubt that the reliefs we found must be related to Longgong Island. We have found the right direction, and maybe Longgong Island will appear again in our hands. "

Lu Song was so emotional that he couldn't control himself.

Sitting near Lu Song, Jiang Sheng could clearly hear his heavy breathing.

This is nothing to scoff at.

If other old professors from the archaeological field came over, they might be worse than Lu Song, and he had a heart attack on the spot and burped.

Of course, tomb robbers like Jiang Sheng and Yu Xuan would not be like this, they never want to be famous in history, they just want to take all the useful treasures in the tomb.

Regarding Longgong Island, Jiang Sheng was only curious about the weird time rules, but he had no hope for the harvest of ancient energy.

The other three also looked excited like Lu Song.

Jiang Sheng followed suit with a smile, making himself seem more gregarious.

Only Mo Li kept a cold face, unmoved in the slightest.

"Teacher, what shall we do next? Should we continue to search for reliefs? Let me go down with you this time."

Cheng Zekun suggested anxiously.

He has been looking for clues in the shallow water area, and learned that a discovery has been made in the deep water area, but he can't go down, as if a meow is scratching his heart.

"No need, there should be only these four reliefs, unless the other reliefs are very secretively hidden.

But we can't waste time on other 'unnecessary' reliefs, we should take a step closer and discover the secrets of Longgong Island. "

Lin Xing'er picked up the photo of Land Cloud, pointed to the specially circled place on it, and asked, "Teacher, why is this here? Its eyes are a bit special?"

Lu Song glanced at it, was reminded, and remembered the key point that he had overlooked before.

"Is this marked by Jiang Sheng? It's really careful."

"I also discovered that there is a kind of low-quality crystal embedded in the eye sockets of all Pokémon reliefs, and we can start from here."

"Could this be a 'light'? When they light up, the mechanism will be triggered, and Longgong Island will reappear?" Lin Xing'er said on a whim.

No one refuted her idea, they all nodded in agreement.

"The question is how to light them up and fill them with energy? Blood sacrifice? Or something else?"

"If we guess the wrong way, or light up in the wrong order, will the self-destruct mechanism be triggered?"

Dong Zhaoyang tapped the table with a pen, frowned and asked two key questions in a row.

"We still need more documents, but it seems that the information about Longgong Island has been erased by the Manchu Empire."

Cheng Zekun scratched his hair and said something irritated.

Jiang Sheng sighed slightly in his heart, this is the difference between professionals and Ye Luzi.

If it were him and Master Yu Xuan who went up, it would definitely be to find the best solution and try it first, instead of making meaningless guesses here.

After all, they are exploitable destructively for maximum benefit.

And these decent people are developing for protection, trying to keep the relics intact, ignoring the harvest and pursuing fame.

Jiang Sheng decided to give them a push so that they could see the portal of Longgong Island earlier.

He also wanted to see if there was a tricky way to enter Longgong Island.

If there is still life on Longgong Island, it has only been more than a hundred years since the island was closed, but they have experienced more than 700 years!

Thinking of this, Jiang Sheng was suddenly taken aback.

He wants to take back what he just said, maybe the ancient energy on the island will be very rich.

Isn't this a natural wholesale place for fake antiques?

Moreover, the time experienced on them is real, carrying the passage of time, and containing ancient energy, you cannot say that they are fake.

Jiang Sheng's heart is hot, and he wants to see the portal of Longgong Island in advance.

"Teacher, I made some discoveries when facing the relief."

Lu Song was worrying about how to trigger the mechanism, but Jiang Sheng's words lifted his spirits.

This person in front of him is a powerful superpower that is rare in the world!
Although he doesn't know much about archaeology, when it comes to perception, no one present can surpass him except for another waveguide hero.

"Tell me what you found."

"When facing these reliefs, I vaguely sensed the breath of ancient energy from the crystals embedded in the eye sockets. Maybe the energy that drives the mechanism is ancient energy."

Lu Song's eyes lit up, remembering the previous assessment of Jiang Sheng, he hurriedly asked:
"Answer me first, have you sensed the ancient energy on the relief? It must be at least a century's worth of ancient energy, have you felt it?"

"No, there is only a residual breath, which is very faint and almost invisible."

Lu Song patted the table, his face became more joyful.

"That's right, the relief sculpture should have been built at the beginning of the Manchu Empire, and because of the sustenance given to it by future generations, ancient energy will definitely be born in it.

But there is no ancient energy in the four-sided relief, which shows that the mechanism in the relief is powered by ancient energy.

But during the hundreds of years of standby, the ancient energy contained in it has been consumed! "

Cheng Zekun couldn't hold back, and said excitedly: "In this case, teacher, we have brought a batch of ancient relics with sufficient ancient energy, and we will act to trigger the mechanism."

"No, we haven't found the law to open it yet. What if there is a mistake in the steps and the mechanism self-destructs?" Dong Chaoyang frowned.

"Dragon, ground/grass, water, ground/flying, is there any connection among them?" Lin Xing'er was digging into the essence, trying to find the laws hidden in the four-sided relief.

Jiang Sheng covered his mouth and yawned a little, complaining in his heart:

There is a thread connection, people just want to commemorate the important promoters of the birth of Xinlonggong Island, if it is not reliable, maybe what we saw this time are four stinky mud reliefs.

After reading the reference answer, the decryption process is so plain and boring.

Seeing the seniors and sisters arguing endlessly, Jiang Sheng couldn't help but make a point.

"I don't think the Manchu Empire should have set up a self-destruct mechanism..."

"After all, this is not the emperor's mausoleum. This is a treasure land for training guards. It needs to be reused. If it is destroyed, it will be the loss of the empire."

One word awakened the dreamer, and the four of them stared at Jiang Sheng dumbfounded.

"Jiang Sheng, you are a genius!"

"Student, your train of thought...is so clear!"

"awesome!"

"In a word!"

Jiang Sheng smiled and shook his head, but he kept complaining in his heart.

Alas, the life of a wise man is so unpretentious and boring.
