Chapter 35: Searching the Ruins of the Village

The houses in this village are all wooden structures, and it looks like they have been uninhabited for a long time, and they are extremely dilapidated. The floor was covered with a thick layer of dust.

The two found a flat bottle under the stairs of a wooden house.

"This seems to have been used by U.S. Navy soldiers during World War II." Laura picked up the rusty metal bottle and looked closely, "Have American soldiers been here?" Are they here to take over the island? ”

"Only God knows." Su Bai shrugged, "If we can find more things later, we may be able to solve this puzzle." ”

At this moment, Laura turned the bottle over, and at a glance saw the marks engraved on the back.

"These marks seem to be used to record something." She muttered in confusion, "Is it the number of companions lost, or the number of kills?" ”

"Maybe it's the number of days the GI has been here since he landed." Su Bai interjected, and said, "Okay, let's not waste time on these inconsequential things, let's continue to look for other things." ”

Laura nodded.

He looked at the bottle in his hand and put it back on the ground.

The bottle was so badly corroded that it couldn't be used anymore. So there is no value to carry on the body.

The two continued upstairs and found several small statues of Queen Himiko on the floor on the second floor.

"I think the residents of this place used to pray to the queen in their homes." Laura speculated.

Coming to the third floor, on the ground in the corner, there is a quaint scroll.

Laura carefully picked up the scroll, blew the dust off it, and opened it.

"This seems to be the record of a Chinese envoy who came to the Yamatai Kingdom back then." Looking at the handwriting on the scroll, Laura said.

"Huaxia envoy?" Su Bai curiously approached the scroll, only to see that the handwriting on it was blurred, but he could still vaguely identify some of it.

"This seems to be a book, right?"

He said with some uncertainty.

When I was in school before, I learned some about ancient Chinese characters, and the text on the scroll has obvious characteristics of official script.

Moreover, the Toei of the Yamatai Kingdom is in the Yayoi period, and Huaxia is the Three Kingdoms period. At that time, the main text was Lishu.

Laura nodded and said, "That's right, this is indeed the official book in Chinese characters." ”

Su Bai was suddenly a little embarrassed.

As a Chinese, he did not have a British girl who knew more about the language of his own country.

Laura didn't notice his embarrassment and was engrossed in what was on it.

Su Bai looked at it for a while and found that he couldn't understand it at all, so he gave up.

"This kind of thing has to be done by professionals." He comforted himself so much in his heart.

After a while, Laura put down the scroll, and Su Bai immediately asked curiously, "What is written on it?" ”

Laura replied, "I can only see the approximate approximation." This is supposed to be the messenger's personal record, which records the purpose of his visit, as well as his impressions of Queen Himiko. Moreover, he mentions the Queen's army, the Storm Warriors. ”

"Storm Samurai? Isn't that the army that the legendary Queen Himiko created with the power of her spells? Su Bai narrowed his eyes, "In this way, all this is not just speculation. Then it is very likely that the fact that the queen can shaman spells is not just an ethereal legend. ”

"Does Queen Himiko really possess magical powers......" Laura muttered in disbelief.

"Maybe there is, maybe not, who knows. But anyway, Laura, we're going to have to be a little more careful. Su Bai said in a deep voice.

"Even if the queen really knows how to spell...... Laura, she let out a long breath and looked at Su Bai, "It's been more than two thousand years now, and she has long since disappeared into the long river of history." We will never see the power of the Queen's spells again. ”

"Not necessarily." Su Bai shook his head.

Laura was stunned, and just wanted to ask, Su Bai had quietly changed the topic: "Okay, let's go." Search as soon as possible, and then go and complete the mission given to us by Rose. ”

"Okay." She nodded, not asking any further.

The two continued their search in the village.

However, after discovering the scroll, they found nothing useful.

"Looks like there's nothing useful here." Su Bai stopped and said with emotion, "Most of the items and clues have disappeared in a long time. ”

"Nothing can resist the power of time...... "Laura looked at a god on the ground, "even the legendary Queen Himiko with powerful shamanic spells." ”

"Alright, let's go, Laura." Su Bai said to the girl.

The two left the village.

Arriving at the rock face by the waterfall, Laura removed the pickaxe hanging from her waist.

"You know what, Sue, I started training with Ross a long time ago." Laura looked at the rock wall with some distraction and muttered, "Trekking, climbing...... It was as if he had foreseen the situation and told me to prepare in advance. ”

"This fully shows that there is always no harm in learning a little more skills." Su Bai grabbed her shoulder and said.

Then, he laughed and said, "Fortunately, I was very interested in rock climbing, so I also learned a little bit." Now it's finally coming in handy. ”

"Have you learned that too?" Laura turned to look at him, a look of surprise on her face.

"Of course, otherwise how do you think I've been able to get over those obstacles along the way?" Su Bai said in a natural tone.

Without waiting for Laura to ask again, he reached out and took the pickaxe: "Let me familiarize myself with the usage first, and open the way in front by the way." ”

Laura looked at him with a hint of worry in her eyes, "Be careful, Sue." ”

"Don't worry, there will be no problem." Su Bai waved his hand with his back to her, his tone confident.

His self-confidence naturally comes from his newly upgraded skills, Revenant Walker Lv2, and Evolver Lv3. Now is the time to see how good you are after leveling up.

Walking in front of the rock wall, Su Bai took a slight breath, bent his legs slightly, and jumped up. At the same time, he held a pickaxe in his hand and chiseled fiercely into the rock wall.

Boom!

With a crisp sound, the pickaxe was carved into the hard rock wall, and Su Bai's body was hung in the air.

Turning back to Laura who was staring at him on the ground and showing a smile, Su Bai turned his head, looked at it, kicked on the rock wall, grabbed the raised part of the rock wall with his left hand, and withdrew the pickaxe with his right hand, and chiseled towards the top.

In this way, he used a pickaxe to climb this rock wall seven or eight meters high.

"Huhu ......" climbed to the ground, Su Bai gasped slightly, "It's really laborious." It would be much easier if there were two pickaxes. ”

Since there is only one pickaxe, there is no way to take turns as a fulcrum when moving forward like there are two pickaxes. Therefore, the difficulty and the exertion of physical strength are simply increased by exponential multiples.

If it weren't for the third-level evolutionary skills, his physical fitness would have improved significantly. Coupled with the two-level climber skills, the use of skills is far beyond ordinary people, he doesn't want to play like this at all.
