Atlas of Heaven and Man.

Chapter 858: Ancient Chapters

Inside the Yuan'an branch, where the top of the Molan Company's tower was originally located, Liao Donghai and Chen Chuan took the elevator here. This place has been transformed into a huge dome-shaped glass structure.

Chen Chuan walked forward until he reached the edge of the top floor. He looked out and saw the entire Yangzhi City at his feet. It was the first time for him to overlook the city where he grew up from such a high angle.

Some buildings gave him a completely new feeling just by looking at them from a different angle.

Mr. Liao took out a headset and handed it to Chen Chuan. Chen Chuan took it and put it on. After clicking it, the field screen here unfolded and pictures and texts appeared on it.

Liao Donghai said: "Director Chen, our laboratory has analyzed the tissues and clothing materials of the two people and determined that the two people lived between 350 and 400 years ago. Before that, they should have lived in the current territory of the Noros Church. Later, they moved to Haixi Road and lived there for a long time."

As he described, a map of the territories of the East Continent and its surrounding countries three or four hundred years ago appeared on the screen.

"We looked up the data from that time and found that there were actually quite a few tribes in Haixi Road that migrated from the Western Continent during this period of time. There was a widely circulated poem there at the time."

Liao Donghai pointed to the certificate of the lower world, on which there were some texts from murals and parchment fragments.

"The poem roughly means that in the past, there was an ancient tribal hero who found that his tribe had been devoured by the 'Agara Demon' after returning home from hunting. So he followed the guidance of the ancient gods, followed the direction of the sun all the way to the seaside, and found the demon.

In the words of the poems, they fought a great battle here that was praised by the gods. Red blood wine rained down from the sky, the sea and clouds were dyed red, and the rivers turned red. Finally, the hero stabbed the great demon's chest with a divine weapon, killing it and breaking it into twenty-eight pieces.

These twenty-eight pieces of corpses later turned into a small monster called the 'Son of Agara'. Since then, there has been a rumor that those who hunt the Son of Agara can obtain a portion of the power of the God-given weapon from them."

Liao Donghai flipped the screen after saying this. "After the branch excavated the two ancient fighters, we managed to find this hymn and asked experts to verify it. This poem actually has a source and there are several versions. The earliest one can probably be traced back to more than a thousand years ago."

Chen Chuan asked: "So this story is just a framework?"

Liao Donghai said: "As for the poem itself, it is true. It is said that in order to facilitate singing, the content has actually been modified to make it more in line with the actual situation and a style that can be understood by the locals.

The company later looked for archives from the old times, where the incident was also recorded. Although the poem was distorted, exaggerated, and even mythologized, the incident itself can be said to be true. "

Chen Chuan then asked: "How do you know this is true?"

Liao Donghai said seriously: "Because the person who recorded this incident was the Xuanjiao Heavenly Master at that time, Huo Tianshi."

When Chen Chuan heard the name, his eyes moved slightly and he nodded.

This person was a high-ranking figure in the old state religion and had reached a relatively high level. It should be credible that such a person deliberately left behind records.

Liao Donghai added: "In addition to some text descriptions, we also found a depiction of the Agala monster here." As he spoke, he clicked, and a line-drawn image of a huge creature appeared on the field screen. This thing seemed to be as tall as the mountain specially depicted next to it.

"The so-called Agara monster is called 'Pilu' in our old times. It is a large creature that crawls out from the cracks in the seabed. It is also very rare in the fusion area."

Chen Chuan was slightly surprised. "Are the creatures from the fusion land coming to our place?"

Such large creatures usually live deep in the fusion zone, and rarely come close to this world, because there is usually not enough food here to sustain their activities. But then he thought of another possibility, raised his eyes and said, "Is it a lost object?"

Liao Donghai nodded and said, "That's right, Director Chen guessed it right. We restored the situation at that time based on the description. At that time, there should have been an unknown relic that attracted Pi Lu to land and had a conflict with those ancient fighters of the tribe.

The era in which Master Huo lived was similar to theirs, about eight hundred years ago, when Xuanjiao had just defeated Chanjiao and became the state religion. At that time, the court invited Master Huo to reorganize Haixi. It was said that this master, with just a sword and a whisk, cleansed the entire Haixi Road within three years.

This Taoist priest must have inspected the traces left behind and confirmed that the battle had taken place. Based on the remains left at the scene, he believed that there must have been more than one ancient fighter who participated in the fight. However, only one person survived the battle. The poem praises both this person and the others, and actually merged all of them into one image.

As he spoke, many scrolls and murals about this matter appeared on the screen, and after these, a map of the territory appeared.

"Three or four hundred years ago, the previous dynasty was gradually collapsing, and its control over the Haixi Road was greatly weakened. At that time, wars were frequent in the Western Continent, so many tribes moved there. The two ancient fighters we dug out should have come here at that time.

Since that poem was passed down, people from the Western Continent have been coming here to look for and pursue the God-given relic. It is said that a part of this thing is hidden in the bodies of the twenty-eight Sons of Agara. As long as these Sons of Agara are killed, the power can be integrated into one's own body."

Chen Chuan understood roughly what he had heard. He said, "So the things hidden in their bodies are the so-called 'God-given' things?"

Liao Donghai said: "That should be the case. They were most likely successful in their hunt.

In fact, it's not just them. In the past few hundred years, because of this legend, it is possible that someone gained power from it, so they kept leading people from the West Land into the Haixi Road to hunt these things. In the past, these monsters had actually been seen by people, and records had been passed down, but before the establishment of the last dynasty, there were no more records, so some people suspected that these monsters had almost been hunted down.

And what these two people are hunting may be the last two so-called "Sons of Agara". If there is someone who has other parts of the God-given relic, and then separates the part they have obtained, then this relic may be restored."

Chen Chuan nodded. Any relics that could attract large creatures like the Pilu to come ashore must not be a simple thing. It is possible that they are second-level relics. They are of great significance to the country and are not something that a company can handle.

If Yuan'an Company had known this background earlier, they would have reported it to the government immediately. This also explains why they are so cooperative now.

He thought for a moment and then said, "The traitor lurking in your company acted decisively. It seems that he knew something a long time ago."

Liao Donghai nodded and said, "After investigation by the head office, it was determined that this was a commercial spy planted here by the Tajing Company, a national enterprise of the Noros Theocracy. Based on his actions over the years, we believe that one of his purposes for lurking here is probably for this matter.

In Haixi Road, we speculate that a secret telegram he sent to the company was intercepted, and some people or forces knew about this in advance, so they quickly invited a fighter to intercept him. "

At this point, he bowed to Chen Chuan and thanked him: "Fortunately, Director Chen stopped this matter, otherwise the company would have to bear greater responsibility and be punished by the government."

Chen Chuan thought of something else at this time, and he said: "Mr. Liao should have read the branch company's report. I saw a huge footprint at the scene where the two people were found. I asked one of them, and they themselves didn't seem to know about this. Does your company know about the situation?"

Liao Donghai said: "I read the report, asked some experts in the company, and looked through some files, but I couldn't determine what attacked them. However, based on the records of Master Huo Tianshi, we have come to a more dangerous conclusion."

He paused, then said solemnly, "Back then, the Pilu was divided into 28 pieces, and the remains were stored in the bodies of the scattered bodies. This actually served the purpose of dividing the monster. If all the remains that restricted it disappeared, it is very likely that the original Pilu would gather back together after a period of time. Although it may not have the power it had back then, it is still a very dangerous existence."

Chen Chuan thought about it, looked at Liao Donghai, and said, "If that's the case, then this thing hasn't appeared yet. Either one or two of the so-called 'Sons of Agara' are still alive, or all the clones have escaped the control of the relics. It's just that this is not a blending place, so it hasn't recovered to its full state yet."

Liao Donghai said admiringly, "That's right, Director Chen. Your judgment is very close to the analysis of some researchers in our company. However, another hypothesis has been proposed within the company. It is also possible that the long-term separation has caused this organism and the relic to have some kind of profound connection. Therefore, if the relic is incomplete, this organism will not be complete either. If this is the case, it may not be a bad thing."

Chen Chuan nodded. After so many years, the relics should be scattered in many places. It might not be easy to gather them together. He said, "How do you plan to extract the relics from these two people?"

Liao Donghai looked at Chen Chuanshuo and said, "Director Chen, the easiest way is for a fighter to kill them, so that these parts of the remains can be transferred into this person's body."
