Chapter 847: Belen Glacier Lakeside

"Do you know where the Reynolds are from?" Leo asked, unable to find the information he was looking for from his own sources, to Sylvia, who was still working on the detector.

"Do you need to ask?" Sylvia looked at Leo with some confusion and said, "Of course they are from the Northland Ice Field. ”

"I know they're from the Northland Ice Field," Leo added, seeing that Sylvia understood him a little wrong, "Where do I want to ask about the Northland Ice Field?"

Sylvia was about to answer Leo's question, but after a question went through her mind, she found that she couldn't find the answer.

The fact that the Reynolds of Dyadia are from the Northland Ice Fields of the Veron Continent is a well-known thing in the entire Velonian world, but the strange thing is that no one else knows more about the Reynolds, and Sylvia has not mentioned the homeland of the Reynolds in the materials he has seen before, as if the Reynolds suddenly appeared in this world, as if they suddenly perished.

"If you want to investigate the information of the Reynolds, the Royal Academy of France should have it, they once revised a history of the tribes of the Northlands, but for some political reasons, this work was not published, but only a few copies were printed and stored in the Royal Academy and the Royal Library. Sylvia thought for a moment, gave advice, and then asked, "Why do you suddenly ask about the hometown of the Reynolds?

"There's a problem. Leo nodded, pointed to the general recorder and the detector on his wrist, and said: "I just checked the original data in the detector through this thing, and found that the ancestors of the Reynolds knew how to use this device from the starry sky completely, so the Leiluo people must have been in contact with the items left behind in the starry sky very systematically, and those items are also very likely to be in the hometown of the Reynolds." ”

"They're bringing something over here too?" Sylvia questioned, lining up the detector and saying, "Didn't they bring this thing too?"

"Yes, it is possible to take something like this, but ......" Leo said, pointing to the document that recorded the metal block at the bottom of the lake, "there is no way they can take something as big as the bottom of the Belém Glacial Lake." ”

Sylvia didn't refute Leo's thoughts, but instead changed the topic back and said, "When we return to the Veron Continent, we can go to the imperial capital, and I also happen to have some family things to get back." ”

Leo nodded after hearing this, in fact, before that, they had mentioned that after returning to the Velen Continent, they would go south from that route and where they would go.

If it is safe to do so, it is natural to travel west from the Northlands, via the Hanosa Union, then past the ruins of Miria, one more trip through the Divia Mountains, or a boat south along the coastline back to the United Kingdom.

However, Sylvia denied this safe path and decided to cross the Francois Empire on the east coast and take this dangerous path.

You must know that both Sylvia Belmont and Count Maupassant are firmly in the top ten in the ranking of wanted criminals in the French Empire, and there are countless people in the French Empire who want to catch her, whether it is the official or the people of the French Empire, and taking the southward route of the French Empire is tantamount to killing yourself.

However, when Sylvia made her decision, Leo did not dissuade her, he did not know why Sylvia chose this path, but he knew that there was no need to ask, only to say that he would go with her.

Now it seems that Sylvia's decision to take a trip to the Francois Empire should have something to do with her family's belongings.

On that day, the political situation on the continent of Vilon, and the sudden establishment of the United Kingdom not only caught the French Empire by surprise, but even some people in the United Kingdom were completely confused, and Sylvia was one of them.

It was for this reason that Sylvia was not able to transfer her family's property and belongings, so that all of them were confiscated by the French Empire, and then these items, including Belmont Manor, were auctioned off, and all items were lost.

Although Sylvia has recovered most of the family's belongings through some means, there are still many important things that are still in the hands of others, which has become a thorn in her heart, and she decides to find an opportunity to pull this thorn out no matter what, and Leo's companion is a good opportunity.

Leo knew Sylvia's thoughts very well, so he didn't persuade Sylvia.

The two of them didn't talk about what they were going to do after meeting the Weilun Continent, but returned to the matter of Belen Glacier Lake, and carefully studied the information, and when they felt that it was about the same, they decided to go to the scene to check it out, and also test this detector.

When he learned that the two of them were going to investigate the huge metal ruins in the water of the Belen Ice Lake, the scholar supervisor in the camp naturally objected, and the reason for his objection was not that he was worried that the two would find something, but that it was the coldest winter, and the divers they recruited could not enter the water in such a cold season, and they would not be able to do any purpose in surveying there.

However, after Leo and Sylvia showed the Ice Queen's pass, the Scholar Director had no way to stop them, but instead sent a recruited diver as a guide to lead the two to the passage they had built in the water ruins.

After that, the three of them rode the Northland Pack Beast towards the location of the passage.

On the way, Leo also asked the diver guide about the underwater ruins, but he didn't get any useful information, not because the diver wanted to keep any secrets, but because the diver was only recruited this summer, and after coming here, he had carried out a total of three missions, and those three missions were all search missions in other waters, and he had not touched the remains of the metal block in the water.

Like all the divers recruited here, this young man named Taranke is a member of the family, and in fact nearly half of the divers here are from his own village. Almost all the people in their village were dependents.

Their tribe was originally a small tribe on the east coast of Savile that made a living from fishing, because the ancestors of the tribe believed in an evil god in the water, and their blood was infected, and their entire tribe became the relatives of that evil god.

It's just that the evil god was finally consulted by the church of the Lord of Life and Death, and the evil god was also killed, and their tribe was wanted by the Saville church and the official, so they had to escape from Saville, and then settled in the northern ice tundra, still living by fishing.

Because at the beginning, Dyliat also had a strong rejection mentality towards the family like the southern countries, so their tribe had to hide their true identity, although most of them will encounter some physical mutations when they become adults, but these mutations are all hidden, such as webbed soles, gills behind the ears, etc., these invisible mutations will not only not affect their lives, but will facilitate them to go out to sea to fish.

Only a small number of human bodies will undergo large-scale mutations, such as growing scales, completely deforming their heads, and turning into half-human, half-fish monsters, and most of these people will have problems such as insanity with the mutation of their bodies, and eventually they will not be in Shanghai, but will enter the sea one day, and eventually disappear from the eyes of the clansmen.

Some say that the Fish-People died in the sea, but others say that they met some Fish-People while they were out fishing, and they seem to have established an undersea village in the sea.

Later, Leah Vinistein became the queen of Dalyat, and the whole Daliad became a refuge for the family, and their tribe was truly stable, and the people in their tribe in addition to inheriting the family business and going to sea to fish, more joined the Daliat's navy, and some of them became officers because of their military exploits.

Tarank, too, wanted to join the navy of Dyliat, but because of his extreme ability to withstand cold and dive deeply, he was assigned to the Belém Glacier Lagoon and became one of the hired divers.

Although he lost the way to rely on the army to improve his social status, he also received monetary compensation at the same time, it is no exaggeration to say that a newcomer like him who has only been here for a few months and has carried out a few missions has been paid for a few months is already the salary of other people who have joined the army for several years, and if he can find any prehistoric civilization items at the bottom of the lake, then the reward he receives is enough for him to live a very rich life.

Therefore, he will do everything possible to take on tasks from scholars, such tasks after winter, veterans here will not take them, because this kind of task is very dangerous, and the salary will not be much higher than ordinary tasks, only a newcomer like him will behave so enthusiastically.

Perhaps because there was no one in the camp who wanted to talk to him, and when Leo asked about the prehistoric ruins at the bottom of the Belém Glacier Lake, he didn't have any idea of secrecy, and he kept telling everything he knew.

And what he said was not exactly the same as what Leo and Sylvia had seen on the data, and there were many secrets of conversation between divers.

For example, a diver once saw the metal ruins at the bottom of the lake glow one night, and he thought it might be an opportunity, so he dived into the icy lake himself without informing the camp.

As a result, as he approached the metal ruins, he heard an unknown sound, which according to his description was very loud and terrifying, like a murmur from the abyss, and even covering his ears could not prevent him from hearing it.

Frightened, he didn't go any further than the metal ruins, so he returned to the camp and reported the matter to the scholars at the camp.

However, when the camp scholars heard the report, they immediately led the people to the metal ruins, but they heard nothing, so the scholars thought that the diver was lying and wanted to cheat the prize money.

However, on the third day, when the diver was on a mission, he suddenly underwent a rapid mutation, and the whole person was completely dependent, turning into a pair of algae-like monsters, and attacking others like crazy, and was finally wiped out by the troops in the camp.

The scholars in the camp did not think that the diver's sudden mutation was due to the events of the previous two days, but the divers in the camp thought that there was a connection between this matter, so as long as they saw the metal relics in the water glowing, all the divers would not enter the water, and no one would step into the Belém Glacier Lake even with excessive bounties and tough military orders.

I don't know if it's a coincidence, or if Tarank's crow's beak is at work, but when the three of them reach the entrance to the passage near the underwater metal ruins, they find bursts of light shining out from under the ice.

"Damn! I'm sorry, Mr. Leo, I can't get into the water later. The moment he saw the light appear, Taranker immediately said nervously to Leo, and his tone was very serious.

"Don't worry, I didn't intend to get you into the water from the beginning. Leo looked at the light shining from under the ice, and immediately understood what was going on, reaching out and patting Tarank's somewhat stiff shoulder, signaling that he didn't need to be nervous.

In fact, after Taranke mentioned the diver's encounter just now, he vaguely guessed what the situation was, the so-called light was actually the underwater cabin that was emitting signal waves outward, and this signal wave would be hidden in the universe's environment full of various rays, showing a state that was invisible to the naked eye, but in the environment full of special energy in the world of Velon, it became a state like light waves.

The so-called murmur of the abyss that the diver heard was actually just a noise caused by the friction of signal waves and environmental energy, and ordinary people could not hear this subtle noise, while some dependents would have special hearing, and the noise was amplified a lot under the action of water waves, and it was propagated through vibration, even if you covered your ears, you can't stop this vibration.

As for the diver's sudden mutation, it should be this murmur that dealt a blow to his will, and the clan bloodline took the opportunity to fight back and take the initiative, and finally made him mutate into a complete clan.

Although Leo had learned the details of what the divers called the terrifying light, he did not explain it to Tarank, because in his current state, any explanation would be futile.

Therefore, after arriving at the location, he did not even let Tarank, follow them into the passage, but instructed Tarank, at the entrance of the passage, to keep an eye on the pack beast, and then he and Sylvia entered the water passage specially dug for winter diving exploration.

The passage is located about 500 meters from the lake, the interior is very narrow, can only accommodate two people in parallel, the overall slope of the passage is not very large, about 100 meters forward, you will come to the end of the waterway, and this waterway will extend down with a steeper slope until it leads under the ice on the surface of the lake.

Standing at the water's edge, Leo took out the detector and threw it directly into the water, then turned on the universal recorder, controlled the detector to a building in the direction of the lake, and also holographic image system, so that a clear underwater scene appeared in front of the two.
