Chapter 167: The Ancient Society
Shenglong Lake is a large lake that does not freeze even at such low temperatures. Legend has it that the sacred dragon was born in this lake.
However, although this lake is one of the most dangerous places in the legend, as long as it does not get into the water of the lake, there is no danger, and thanks to this lake, there are almost no magical beasts around. Even the demonic beasts born on this Holy Dragon Snow Mountain could not withstand the cold of the water of the Holy Dragon Lake. They all consciously avoided it!
"Never touch the water in the lake! Anything that touches the lake will instantly freeze into ice and then shatter quickly! With our strength, once we touch the lake, we will die!" Jones said with a nervous expression.
It's not that you go directly into the lake, but that the splashes of water that you splash when the lake tide rises and falls, and you can directly freeze and kill the ninth-order masters! In some ways, the Holy Dragon Lake is the least dangerous place among these forbidden places, but in terms of pure lethality, this is the most terrifying place.
"If it's really my mother, why would she come to such a place?" said Wang Qiang, who walked a long distance from the lake to prevent the water from splashing at him.
"Now, what's the place in front of this Holy Dragon Lake?" Wang Qiang suddenly asked Jones.
"I haven't been there, but I've heard that there's a dead end ahead. This piece of Shenglong Lake is almost the end. Jones replied.
"It seems that the answer lies in this lake, but how can I find this kind of place?" Wang Qiang shrank back, "It's so cold! ”
Enduring the biting cold, Wang Qiang walked along the riverside, and suddenly, Wang Qiang noticed that there was something different in front of him, which seemed to be a painting or a mark!
"Look, what's that?" asked Jones, pointing to the pattern in front of him, as he walked over there.
"Huh?!" Jones' eyes suddenly widened as he looked at the place Wang Qiang was pointing.
"Smack!", Jones directly grabbed Wang Qiang's left hand and shouted, "Don't go over!"
Jones's low cheer made Wang Qiang stop, and he looked at Jones, who was holding his left hand, suspiciously, and asked, "What's wrong?"
"That sign seems to be the mark of the Ancient Society! Don't go over! Let's go back!" said Jones, trembling in a cold sweat, struggling to endure his fears.
"Ancient Society? What is that?" Seeing Jones's nervous appearance, Wang Qiang also lowered his voice and slowly stepped back with Jones.
Jones, who was on the road, did not answer Wang Qiang's question, and when he was far away from the marker, Jones relaxed and gasped for breath, as if he had been frightened by something.
"Great! safe and sound!" Jones said, patting his chest.
"What the hell is it that you are so afraid of?" Wang Qiang asked curiously.
"It's the mark of the Ancient Society, so stay away from it, anyway! It is said that nine times out of ten people who see this mark will die on the spot, and it is lucky to have escaped this time!" Jones explained.
"What the hell is the Ancient Society?" asked Wang Qiang curiously.
"The Ancient Society is a mysterious and powerful organization. As soon as Jones said this, Wang Qiang was clever, "Mysterious and powerful organization?!Isn't that a clue given to him by Ghost Fire? Plus he tracked it down, that's right! His parents must be in this ancient association!"
Wang Qiang was a little excited, and at the same time listened more carefully to Jones's words.
"The purpose and members of this organization are unknown, but the strength they possess is undoubtedly powerful! Even the power of an empire will not be taken into account by them!" Jones paused, and Wang Qiang was also a little shocked. As he decided to get involved in Eri's plan, he learned more and more about the Empire, and he knew how terrifying the Empire's strength was, and he really couldn't imagine that a single organization would be able to fight against the Empire.
"No one knows when the Ancient Society was founded, but legend has it that they were founded 100,000 years ago and are an extremely ancient organization. It is also completely unknown what kind of activities they do. But 30,000 years ago, there was an empire that was completely wiped out in three days because it hindered the activities of the ancient associations! ”
"100,000 years ago? Was it a coincidence? Emperor Rong seemed to be a figure of that era! Ghost Fire also said that he had a relationship with Emperor Rong, and Ghost Fire knew his life experience, this was definitely not an ordinary coincidence! There must be something related to this! Perhaps, this ancient association was founded by Emperor Rong! Then his parents were also related to Emperor Rong? Did the tomb keeper really refer to me and not to Ghost Fire when he said that Emperor Rong's bloodline before?" Wang Qiang quickly analyzed the existing information in his brain.
"Not many people know about the Ancient Society now, but as an intelligence officer, or an intelligence officer of the Palansaire family, I still know a little about it. Although no one knew their purpose, they had a habit of placing the kind of marker we just saw at the place of the event. To warn those around you, you are in a place where you should not be! it will be extremely dangerous for us until the mark dissipates!" Jones continued.
"They don't deliberately kill people, but their activities are usually very dangerous, and if they are not strong enough, even the aftermath can kill people! We are lucky, it seems that their activities are over! But we can't be careless, who knows what is still left there? Anyway, let's stay away from that mark until it's gone!"
After listening to Jones's words, Wang Qiang was full of thoughts, he was still a little late, and the figure who suspected his mother should have left, but fortunately, this trip was not completely fruitless!
"That's all for today!, let's go back first!" Wang Qiang said.
Wang Qiang knew that if he continued, he would probably not gain anything, so he would come and investigate it after the mark dissipated in a few days!
Wang Qiang, who walked down from the Holy Dragon Snow Mountain, felt as if he had been reborn! The chill on his body gradually dissipated, and his already frozen body gradually recovered. However, because of the continuous use of magic in the extreme cold, Wang Qiang felt that his control of magic power had reached a higher level, and his strength had also increased slightly.
