Chapter 1054 The Place of Sacrifice

8days ago Xuanhuan Novels 9
Your Majesty, there is an urgent report from Chenxi!The guard walked into the office and placed a bag of thick sheepskin bags next to Roland's mahogany table. The messenger said that it was Sean who entrusted them to send them.

oh?Roland couldn't help but feel energetic. He put down the biplane design in his hand, stood up and said, "Display it apart and take a look."

It has been almost two months since the exploration team left Wudong City, and the last time they received news from them was when they crossed the border of Grayburg.

The moment he learned that the source was not in the territory, Roland was still a little worried. After all, mining and transporting ore was a long-term process, and the first army had limited mobility. The further away from its sphere of influence, the harder the plan would be to control.

Now that he finally got a reply, he naturally cared very much.

But what surprised him secretly was that the package was too big, almost reminding him of the express mail from later generations.

Whether it is found or not, a piece of letter paper can explain the situation. What kind of situation did the exploration team encounter that would ask Sean to send such a large bag of things back?

It was full of paper, probably seeing his doubts, Nightingale leaned into her ear and said.

Paper?Roland turned his head and lowered his voice and asked, "Have your ability evolved to see through objects?"

I think this is the case, but unfortunately it is not.Nightingale said lazily, I just reached into the bag and touched it when the other party entered the door.

So that's the case, her alertness is really... Wait, Roland suddenly felt something wrong. When Evelyn visited with a new Chaos drink, or when the chef came in with a snack cart, would she also touch it like this?

Having said that, the amount of afternoon tea seems to have been a little less recently?

Your Majesty, everything inside was filled with paper. The words of his personal guard interrupted his thoughts, and most of them were covered with ink.

What new reporting method is this?Roland looked in. Is there no letter to read?

Please wait... The guard poured out all the things in the sheepskin bag and finally made a new discovery. There was a wax seal letter at the bottom.

Take it over.

These blackened papers

It was all spread out to the floor, and he ordered, Sean could not spend a lot of effort to send a bunch of useless things back.

yes!

Roland sat back on the chair and uncovered the envelope.

Judging by date, it should be sent a week and a half ago.

Like the bag, this letter is surprisingly long, with a total of more than ten pages. It is hard to imagine that an exploration result needs such a long speech to express.

This may be the reason why the other party used emergency reporting, but did not transfer it to the animal messenger after entering the northern border of Grayburg.

Your Majesty, Miss Aqima has found the source you want is at the northeast junction between the morning light and the wolf heart, which the locals call it the place of Changshan.

Sean's first words made Roland feel relieved.

Fortunately, this trip was finally rewarding. The mining area was still in the territory of the Morning Kingdom, which means that he could control the entire mining process through the Quinn family. Although it cost a lot more, it was better than being limited by Lang Xin and Yongdong.

Moreover, the other party's words did not seem cumbersome, which made him more curious about the content behind it.

But the source is not in the mine cave, but in a very ancient ruin. What is even more incredible is that it neither belongs to the underground civilization nor has anything to do with the Taqila escapees.

We have suspected that it might be the hand of the devil under the sea, but Miss Witch's discovery rejected this conjecture.

Your Majesty, this is definitely a ruin left by a tribe that we have never known.

Roland's brow frowned immediately.

The unknown new alien race has appeared in the territory of the four kingdoms?

This is information that even the Witch Federation has not mentioned.

Although this territory was both barren and backward in the past, it does not mean that they would ignore their own rear. If there were alien activities, it would be unlikely that they would escape the witch's investigation.

That is, if Sean's conclusion is correct, then they may have existed earlier than the underground civilization.

The key question is why is this ethnic group interested in uranium ore?

He continued to look down.

The masoners left a large number of murals on the stone walls at the bottom of the remains, and the various monsters displayed in the paintings are inconsistent with the images of foreign races we know.

Through speculation of its content, Ms. Roser and I both think that the building is likely to be a place of execution.

Not only is it located on the source vein, the masonry also fired the ore into bricks to lay the walls and the ground Aqima observed the existence of the same elements in every corner of the ruins, and even the murals used a large amount of mineral raw materials.

Around the bottom floor, we found a large number of cages and bones, which are also reflected in the murals.

They seemed to have imprisoned a large number of enemies in this, including not only aliens, but also similar people with the same image as the executioner, and then torture each other with the power of the source, as if the gods who do so can please them.

I have rubbed the murals as much as possible and sent the Tokat family's messenger to Wudong.

However, due to the limited number of protective clothing and huge frames, progress is currently slow.

The murals you see are only part of them, and it is expected to take one to two months to complete.

Also, I am very worried about Ms. Roser's situation. She did not wear protective clothing and entered the underground. I wonder if she would encounter the danger you mentioned.

Locals discovered this ruin earlier, but they were infected with a strange epidemic during the plundering process. Many people died of misfortune, so it is also called a curse temple.

In addition, from the purpose of the execution of the remains, this danger should exist.

Oops.After reading this, Roland couldn't help but whisper.

What's wrong? Nightingale asked in the fog. Even if the God-Punished Witch is cursed, changing your body can solve all problems. There is no need to worry about them, right?

What I am worried about is not God’s punishment of the witch, but Shaun and Aqima.He shook his head with a serious expression. According to the plan, they should not stay in the mining area for so long.

Whether it is uranium ore or highly enriched uranium, its decay radiation is mainly A-particles, which is difficult to penetrate the skin and cause harm to the human body, but this does not mean that the same is true in mining areas.

Considering that these radioactive elements have existed for hundreds of millions of years, some of them have become more dangerous elements, such as radon, and the situation becomes different.

The half-life of radon is only 38 days, and it is a gas itself, which is very easy to be sucked into the body to cause internal irradiation, so it must be shielded.

The protective suit he prepared for the exploration team is a fully wrapped jacket designed for deep into the mining area that can effectively isolate a variety of highly toxic elements decayed from the uranium mine. Activated carbon masks can absorb radon and other toxic gases. As long as they do not stay in the mining area for a long time, safety can be basically guaranteed.

But it will be different over time. The adsorption of carbon particles is limited, which means that people involved in the printing of murals may inhale radon gas that exceeds the safety standards and thus receive excessive ionizing radiation.

They had to evacuate the remains immediately, and Roland picked up paper and pen from the table and asked Honey to come over. This reply letter must be delivered to them as soon as possible.
