Chapter 21: Above the Attention?

New developments in the Dahuang Mountain Range?

Lin Chao felt very calm inside.

In truth, he was not overly concerned about matters regarding the Dahuang Mountain Range.

Those were all things of the past.

However, he still opened the livestream.

At this moment, the livestream site was brightly lit.

"Old Liu, we have excavated it, and inside is a huge hollow valley.

Inside, it is all corpses and bones, a vast expanse of white, just like a mass grave!"

The staff member in front was trembling, their voice even carrying a tremor as they spoke.

Wang Jiao immediately became interested; this was the discovery of the main battlefield.

One must know, although they had been excavating for a long time, they had only unearthed thousands of corpses.

However, what had been excavated so far was not the core, or the true battlefield.

Now that the true battlefield was about to appear before them, how could Liu Chengchao not be shocked and excited?

"Old Liu, shall we go in now?" Wang Jiao's voice was also somewhat excited, "A scene like this should be seen by all the viewers in front of their screens!"

"Alright." Liu Chengchao took a deep breath.

The main battlefield should contain much more information.

Perhaps they could even find the truth behind the annihilation of this Wolf Guard.

Perhaps they could even see the remains of the soldiers of Dafeng.

Or perhaps, that mysterious Heize might even truly appear.

Of course, what would appear before them would certainly be corpses and bones.

The group walked forward, their hearts carrying a trace of shock.

The camera was also pointed forward, and hundreds of thousands of people were watching in the livestream room.

This number and figure were still continuously growing.

Ahead was an opening excavated from the ground.

Following the opening inside, one entered the belly of this mountain.

And the terrain within was extremely peculiar, dark and hidden from the sun.

However, under the illumination of countless high-intensity lights, it was brightly lit.

Liu Chengchao walked in, his gaze sweeping across.

What met his eyes was a vast expanse of white!

Everywhere, there were corpses and bones!

Human ones, and those of Giant Wolves!

These corpses and bones were scattered about in disarray; by a rough count, there were at least several thousand.

This scene had a powerful impact on Liu Chengchao and the others, as well as everyone in the livestream room.

In the livestream room, the screen was flooded with comments.

"I have never seen so many corpses and bones in my entire life!"

"How intense must the battle back then have been!"

"This Wolf Guard was completely wiped out, right?

This battle was a fight to the death; it's too terrifying!"

"Which army was it that participated in the battle?"

"It has never been leaked; could it be that both sides perished together?"

"Impossible. In those ancient feudal armies, if the casualty rate in a single battle exceeded 5%, they would collapse and retreat.

Even if the army led by Heize and the Wolf Guard were the strongest of the strong, they would absolutely collapse if the casualty rate exceeded 30%.

It is impossible for both sides to have been completely wiped out."

"The guy above is right. A backward system could never create a modernized army comparable to today's.

Even some extremely paranoid and fanatical religious armies couldn't continue fighting if their casualty rate exceeded half."

"Is there a possibility? This army was fearless of death and had already made the determination to die?"

"Human nature is the least able to withstand testing.

You speak so passionately now, but if you were placed on the battlefield, you might be the first to run away."

"Rather than saying this army was fearless of death, it's better to say that the demon Heize had a God Descent and wiped out tens of thousands of Wolf Guards by himself.

After Heize died, his demon soul did not dissipate and cursed the Giant Wolves of the Wolf Tribe.

The Wolf Tribe has been in decline ever since.

It is precisely because of the curse of Heize's demon soul that these corpses and bones have not decayed for a thousand years, unable to fall into reincarnation, enduring a thousand years of wind and rain."

"I think that makes a lot of sense!"

"Teacher Youya, if the bookstore doesn't have your books, I will definitely go and smash it."

In the livestream room, while the viewers were shocked, there were still quite a few making jokes.

Of course, the fact that the corpses and bones had not decayed for a thousand years had always been a mystery.

Although experts had debunked it, citing the special geographical environment and various factors.

These words were perfectly fine for fooling some laymen.

But those who were in the know were not so easily fooled.

The matter of the Wolf Guard's disappearance in history was definitely not that simple.

There is a mysterious, or perhaps suspenseful, quality to what is inside here.

"Elder Liu, can we now fully confirm that this is indeed that Wolf Tribe from history?" Wang Jiao asked from the side.

"It is highly likely." Liu Chengchao looked ahead.

The main battlefield has appeared, and through investigation, much useful information can be discovered.

Perhaps the truth of history can also be laid out before our eyes because of this.

"Now, we...?" Wang Jiao asked about the next move.

"We go back," Liu Chengchao said, "The remains here need to be counted and tested.

I will also return in these next few days to organize and investigate."

In a Building in Cangxi City.

Liu Chengchao arrived, travel-worn and weary.

A look of joy appeared on Qin Jiawei's face: "Chengchao, you're here. Sit down quickly; we are just missing you right now."

"Very well, Dean Qin." Liu Chengchao wore a respectful expression and sat down on a chair.

He took a deep breath.

As expected, the matter of the Dahuang Mountain Range had still attracted the attention of the highest levels.

After all, in the eyes of the public, this was just a historical event to pass the time and revise history books.

However, what the higher-ups saw was different.

They did not care about how the Wolf Guard was annihilated; they only cared about how these remains had been preserved for a thousand years without decaying.

After all, remains left in the open air being able to be preserved for a thousand years without decaying—

This is a huge shock to biology, chemistry, and other fields.

Qin Jiawei is the dean of the School of Biology at a top-two university in Daxia, and the research institute he established possesses a highly capable research team with many achievements and patents in gene editing.

Last year, Qin Jiawei even won the highest science and technology award in Daxia; he is a well-deserved authority in his field.

At this moment, he had brought his team to Cangxi City.

"Chengchao, take a look at this data first." Qin Jiawei placed a thick stack of documents in front of Liu Chengchao.

Liu Chengchao looked at the contents and began to flip through them carefully.
