Chapter 309: Huge sarcophagus
During this night, Dylan never closed his eyes, looking at the changes in this holy lake, and his heart was at a loss.
During this night, Dylan saw the decomposition of countless bodies, and those high-level demonic beasts and humans that Dylan saw at the bottom of the lake all surfaced on this night, and finally turned into essence and merged into Diya Lake.
It was only at dawn that the glowing Lake Dia returned to normal.
Early the next morning, Tár, known as the "Son of the Forest", was the first to spot the anomaly.
Standing on the edge of the lake, Tal looked at the sparkling Diya Lake and said in amazement, "Why are there so many fish in the water?"
Ngelo glanced at Lake Dia, but did not see any fish above the lake.
But as everyone knows, Tal is called the "Son of the Forest" and can feel the scent of many animals, so if he says so, it means that there are indeed fish in the lake.
At this time, Dylan walked up to Tár's side: "When I went down into the water yesterday, I didn't find any breath of life, but now I can sense that there are a lot of fish in the lake. ”
When Albi heard this, he couldn't help frowning: "In the past three years, we have never seen a single fish, how could there be so many fish in one night?"
Dylan didn't say much about what he saw and heard last night.
First, it is because there is no way to explain it clearly in a short period of time;
The second reason is that those powerful beings who unfortunately died in the lake have not known how many years have been missing, and there is no need to do more.
The news that two of the founding heroes of the Garneman Empire died in Lake Dia would cause a lot of controversy if it reached Ganeman.
Therefore, let the past pass, and since it can no longer be changed, it is better to become a secret forever.
Dylan felt the water of Lake Dia and couldn't help but say suspiciously, "It's not right, it seems that the depth of this lake has also changed." ”
Dylan came to the water's edge, closed his eyes, and said the dragon language in his mouth, and when he opened his eyes, there was a golden light in his eyes.
With the help of the dragon's vision, Dylan could clearly see the bottom of the lake, which was already overgrown with lush aquatic plants, and countless swimming fish, shrimp and crabs were freely shuttling in it.
Dylan roughly estimated that today's Diya Lake is only about 100 meters deep at most, and the water is extremely clear and highly visible to the naked eye.
"What's going on?" Dylan was also a little puzzled, wondering how Lake Dia, which was thousands of meters deep yesterday, became a hundred meters today?
After much thought, Dylan said to Tal and Engru, "I'll go down and see again!"
Tal hurriedly stopped: "Don't! Don't you forget, there is a terrible monster under this water!"
Engru also advised: "Don't take any risks! After all, that thing is too strong to mess with!"
As for what happened yesterday, Ngelu still feels thrilled when he looks back on it.
Dylan's eyes were resolute: "Don't worry, I have a bigger reliance now, and it won't be like yesterday." ”
Despite Tarr and Engru's repeated dissuasions, Dylan persisted and tried to test it.
In the end, the two Tarr couldn't resist Dylan, so they could only agree to let him go down and have a look.
However, before Dylan went into the water, Tal couldn't help but warn him to be careful.
Dylan looked at the unusually clear water, took a deep breath, and then jumped into the water.
After entering the water, Dylan immediately took out the mysterious code that could not be opened, hugged it tightly to his chest, and quickly swam to the bottom of the water.
Immersed in the lake water, Dylan only felt indescribably comfortable, completely devoid of the cold feeling of yesterday.
Dylan couldn't help but secretly speculate that it had something to do with what happened last night.
Due to the significant change in the depth of Lake Dia, he quickly dived to the bottom.
Dylan walked among the lush aquatic plants and felt like he was in a dream.
You know, when I came to the bottom of the lake yesterday, the bottom of the lake was still a terrible scene full of corpses. But now, there are schools of fish everywhere here, and it's a world away from yesterday.
Dylan slowly walked at the bottom of the lake, looking for a trace of yesterday, but he searched for a long time, but he didn't find a single monster or human body.
Just as he was about to return to the lake, he suddenly saw a very inconspicuous stone tablet.
Only the top corner of the stele was exposed, and most of the rest was buried in the sand. If it weren't for Dylan's extremely powerful senses now, perhaps even he wouldn't have been able to spot this inconspicuous stone tablet.
Dylan walked over to the stone tablet and took out a wind-based scroll, crushing it lightly, and the sediment was quickly cleared.
As the sediment cleared, the contents of the lake gradually emerged.
I saw that under the stone tablet, there was a huge rectangular sarcophagus. Dylan roughly estimated that the sarcophagus was five or six meters wide and about twenty meters long.
"What the hell is in there, why do you need such a big sarcophagus?" Dylan was confused.
He looked at the huge stone tablet again, the words on it were strangely shaped, and Dylan searched for information from the dragon heritage, and soon found clues.
"This is the ancient elven script, it seems to have been lost thousands of years ago!" Dylan muttered as he began to read the words on the stele.
"In 0008 of the Xiluo calendar, the elven clan held a sacrificial ceremony to present fifty heroes to the god of water. ”
Reading this, Dylan couldn't help but be stunned, what was contained in this sarcophagus were fifty soldiers of the ancient elf clan?
According to the records, these fifty people are all brave and warlike warriors among the elves!
For such an answer, Dylan couldn't help but be a little overjoyed.
He came to this Dia Lake with two tasks to complete.
One of the missions regarding Garcia's whereabouts had been completed since he had obtained the mysterious codex.
The search for the bodies of the thirty-three elves has not yet been completed.
Now, this sarcophagus actually contained fifty warriors of the ancient elf clan, which was just enough for Dylan to complete his second mission.
"No wonder Leonardo asked me to come here to find the elven body, I think he may know some ancient elven customs or legends. Dylan mused.
According to the inscription on the stele, the warriors in this sarcophagus were all removed from their souls before entering the coffin, leaving their bodies, which was just what Dylan wanted.
"Just, I wonder if these bodies are well preserved?" Dylan thought as he swam to the side of the sarcophagus, ready to push the lid open.
