Through the tape, Count Richard recounts the results of his research on that map of northern Syria.

The story begins around 790 AD when a man suddenly appeared in Constantinople. He preached radical egalitarianism, claiming that peasants and soldiers understood the divine better than nobles and emperors, and that ordinary people could glimpse divinity in the sky, water, and flowing world. Such statements were absolutely perverse at the time, and deserved to be burned at the stake, or hanged.

Constantinople, located in the center of Eurasia, is home to countless missionaries who come and go every day. Monotheism and polytheism attack each other. God, Odin, Zeus, and even the priests of the Egyptian sun god came to intervene. The inhabitants of the city are accustomed to seeing scammers. If that man only pays lip service, then nothing good will come of him out. Being treated with indifference is the lightest, and it is even possible to be hung from the city gates.

Yet this man really has God's favor. He can cure all kinds of diseases and even bring the dead back to life just by touching his hands! This is fully in line with the description of the Son in Christianity. Many people believe that he is the coming of the Son or a prophet, in short, he has the ability to communicate with God. His followers snowballed, spreading his teachings widely.

According to the man, he did not understand magic and could only pray. If God doesn't want this person to die, then the fire of life will be rained. To inject fire is to inject life, and the flame enters the body, passes through the throat, lungs, and heart, and reaches the soul. Time and time again, he has let the people around him witness miracles. Death by the sword, death by the bed...... No matter how he died, as soon as he was inflamed, the corpse would begin to tremble and reopen his eyes.

He carried a bottle that was said to be filled with flames, which he called the Divine Source.

Fire symbolizes the power of the gods, the will of the gods. Fire is warmth, warmth breeds life, and life is a gift from God.

Soon, the man was noticed by the upper echelons of the Byzantine Empire. Can injecting fire cure all diseases and even resurrection? Heresy!

The clergy of the Cathedral of Sophia were so enraged at the man that they met with the emperor and persuaded him to order his arrest and stoned to death. The emperor supported the Church, but his orders were severely discounted and were not carried out smoothly.

It's natural. The Prophet had many followers among the lower classes of the Byzantine Empire, including low-ranking officials and soldiers. No matter how harshly the orders from above are written, it is still up to these people to carry them out. If they disobey the emperor, the emperor's will will not be carried out.

The man was secretly protected and sent out of Constantinople. The report said that he had "fled and did not know where he would end." ”

Thousands of followers fled with him, and the number snowballed. Eventually numbering in the tens of thousands, they quietly established their own cities in the weaker territories of the Northern Syrian Empire.

The city was once prosperous, with a population of hundreds of thousands. But in the end, it was noticed by the Empire.

In 843 AD, a full-scale war broke out. The heavy cavalry of the Byzantine Empire captured the city and executed nearly 10,000 followers. The survivors fled in all directions, and the Prophet did not know what had happened.

At the end of the recording, Earl Richard said in an emotional tone: "I believe that some of the most core believers have since quietly established a small shelter. They were responsible for transporting the body of the Prophet Yes, the Prophet may have been dead by then, at least as it was claimed. They built him a cemetery in a hidden valley and enshrined the Holy Source there. ”

Laura excitedly took the map and compared it: "That ancient tomb...... Daddy found out about it. At least an important clue about it was found! He was already looking for this great discovery, concrete evidence of the immortal soul. No one believed him, but he was right, and it was someone else's misjudgment. The tomb is in Syria! ”

"Shall we take a look?" Nan Xiao proposed.

"Will you come with me?"

"Of course!"

Laura was so excited that she stamped Nan Xiao's face: "Thank you!" That's what makes the most sense to me right now. I'm going to find the Tomb of the Prophet and prove my dad's findings right! ”

Exploring ancient tombs in northern Syria is easier said than done.

Reyes, the mechanic, misses his daughter, and Captain Ross stays with her. Yes, they live together.

Alex, an electronics engineer, was arrested as soon as he returned to London. Police said he tried to crack the satellite signal while he was at Magic Horse Terrace. He argued that it was to send a distress signal, but the police did not listen and suggested that he had something to say to his lawyer.

The old navigator Green's leg was seriously injured, and he probably couldn't do without crutches in the future. The doctor said that if he insisted on not undergoing surgery, he would probably end up in a wheelchair. In short, his adventurous career is probably over. From now on, I can only watch the Premier League in the pub and pour my own beer.

Laura's best friend, Shanmantha Nishimura, refuses to join the adventure again and prepares to study in the United States.

Cook Jonah, Laura thought that at least he would stay with the team, but she didn't say goodbye...... It's not a complete goodbye. Before leaving, he left a sad farewell letter. "You have Nanxiao, I feel like I'm a superfluous person." That's what it is.

To sum up, Laura's adventurous team that she had managed to put together broke up. Without the Perseverance expedition salvage ship, she was unable to recruit men without Captain Ross's prestige to back her up.

"I have one," Nan Xiao said lazily, "it's called the Red Cossack, and it's a very good spy...... Uh, expedition salvage boats. There is a necessary minimum of force, ample compartments to store supplies, and even a submersible capable of diving 20,000 meters to the bottom of the sea. ”

"Sailor?"

"Not one," Nan Xiao said, "and the computer on the ship respectfully calls me the captain." Other than that, there is no one else. ”

"Can't do without the crew," Laura said with a sad face, ""

Nan Xiao did not object. Basically, for Laura's decision, he completely adopted a sheep herding policy. He also did not want the high degree of automation of the Red Cossack to be made public, and it was not necessarily a good thing to attract too much attention.

"We're going to try it out at the Voyager Tavern," she said firmly, "and recruit some." ”

That night, she bravely walked to the Voyager tavern.

"Ma'am," said an idler standing at the doorway, "here are only for sailors and captains." ”

Nan Xiao grabbed him by the neck and carried him to the side: "This lady can go wherever she wants." ”

Laura can go wherever she wants, just like Mondo jungled.
