Versatile Mage: Heavy Water Overwhelms the World

Chapter 446: Gravekeeper of the Gods

……

Japan.

Tokyo National University.

By mid-to-late September, the school term had long passed, and cheerful college students once again appeared in every corner of Tokyo.

The topics discussed by everyone were different, but they all couldn't avoid one topic.

The first was the Bloody Alert that occurred in the Tokyo Naval Battlefield more than a month ago. This was a disaster that had not occurred in decades, but no one expected that it would happen when most of them were returning home for summer vacation.

The news reports the heroic deeds in this disaster every day, including the one-man monarch, the commander-in-chief Akasakame, the outstanding student of Tokyo Academy, Chisaki Mochizuki, who commanded the block on the spot, and the general Harada Hiroshi, who overpowered the sub-monarch, the sea beast.

The Japanese authorities are clearly trying to cover up the truth and details of the disaster, and have intentionally avoided mentioning Nanyi and Yuzang Island, only portraying the incident as a successful large-scale struggle between humans and demons!

But at the same time, among these rounds of glorious deeds, there are the most painful and vivid blood and tears piled up with lives.

Fortunately, the bloody alert occurred in the Tokyo Sea battlefield, not in a normal residential city. The bloody haze did not last too long in everyone's mind. In just over a month, the progress of recovery and reconstruction was almost complete.

But in a corner that most people don't care about, a huge uproar has quietly been set off in the field of Japanese marine demonology.

Led by Chu Qingxuan, the East China Military Department and the East China Sea City Military Department of Japan reached several research agreements on the characteristics of marine monsters, and even several universities and colleges participated in it.

Mingzhu, Lushan and Tokyo University are among them.

Of course, all the researchers from the research institutes, professors from universities, and even students involved signed confidentiality agreements and were strictly supervised by the two major military departments.

Today, most projects are still in the project preparation stage, and only a few have been implemented.

As the unified leader of these projects, Chu Qingxuan is naturally very busy.

In the past month, she and Nan Yi could only chat when eating and sleeping. Sometimes they ate in the laboratory, and sometimes they slept in the laboratory.

However, at this moment, Chu Qingxuan, who was under great pressure in scientific research, was not staying in the laboratory, but was facing the screen alone in an empty conference room.

There are several avatars on the screen, including Feng Zhoulong, Jiang Shaojun, Ye Ye, and several researchers from the 2021 Research Institute and the Eastern Army Department.

The screen was currently showing a map that was covered in marks and annotations, and the handwriting on it was obvious that it was the work of more than one person.

Chu Qingxuan frowned slightly, turned a high-end fountain pen, looked at the files and maps on the screen, listened to the discussion between Jiang Shaojun and Feng Zhoulong, and thought to herself.

"Shaojun, how sure are you?" Feng Zhoulong's questioning voice rang out in the empty conference room.

"At least five points. After all, my knowledge of foreign countries is mainly limited to data and documents. But from the current clues, the possibility of clues in these areas is indeed very high."

As Jiang Shaojun spoke, he circled several areas on the map, which looked like the Northern European region.

"Please continue talking." Feng Zhoulong said.

Jiang Shaojun then began to explain the basis of his analysis.

"I have been curious about the mysterious black tree in Nan Yi's body before, and I have also tried to trace its origin privately, but unfortunately, I have not found any similar existence in the many domestic data and books."

"Later, after returning from the last archaeological excavation, I thought of starting with Daozui Island, so I got all the information from the Eastern Military Department after they took over Daozui Island, and tried to find clues from it."

Jiang Shaojun continued.

"I thought it was just a useless move, but I didn't expect to find a clue."

Jiang Shaojun clicked on a document, which contained photocopies of some incomplete documents, on which one could vaguely see the seal of the Daozui Island Jianyu Municipal Government.

Obviously, this is a document from the Daozui Island government and also a business cooperation agreement.

"This black tree doesn't seem to be native to this country, but comes from abroad."

That’s right, the content of that business cooperation agreement was about the mysterious black tree.

The other party provided the so-called mysterious black tree, and the Jianyu government provided the other party with policy support related to trade import and export, as well as industrial landing preferences, the level of which was astonishing.

In this document, the mysterious black tree was called "Stump-I". Jiang Shaojun had to trouble the researchers of the Eastern Military Department to confirm that it was the mysterious black tree among the numerous documents.

The only breakthrough point was the force that was doing business with the former Jianyu Municipal Government, an ancient family from Northern Europe, Norway.

The Yuk family.

Later, with the help of the Eastern Army's intelligence network, Jiang Shaojun also learned some information about the Youke family.

At that time, the Juke family from Norway was in a period of bankruptcy and was about to fall into ruin. Therefore, selling family assets in exchange for business cooperation became their forced choice.

It just so happened that Jianyu Municipal Government was obsessed with the co-prosperity plan and was on the road of transformation and evolution. The two parties hit it off, one providing experimental materials and the other providing convenient overseas markets and ports.

From the few words in the cooperation agreement of that year, we can know that the Youke family obviously did not trade the complete black branch to the Jianyu Municipal Government, but only traded part of it.

After determining the origin of the mysterious black tree, the scope of investigation suddenly expanded.

Jiang Shaojun continued.

"The Yuke family is a particularly ancient family. It has experienced several upheavals and destructions, but it has been able to reappear every time and has survived to this day."

"Nowadays, the Yuk family has gradually faded out of Norway, but their presence is indispensable in both the Norwegian Magic Association and the military. It can be said that they are deeply rooted in Norway."

Hearing this, Chu Qingxuan stopped spinning the pen and murmured, "Norway...Norway...black tree stumps...could it be..."

Chu Qingxuan seemed to have sensed something, and the others all showed similar expressions. Obviously, everyone had a vague guess of what it was, but they were not sure.

Seeing this, Jiang Shaojun smiled slightly.

"It seems like everyone has guessed it. I'm actually quite surprised too."

"The Yuk family once claimed to be the people of the old days, the gravekeepers of the gods, and the heirs of the twilight legacy."

As he spoke, Jiang Shaojun reopened the map.

"I used to think that only the Parthenon, the Holy City, Egypt, and Peru still had totems or totem-like powers. The rest either disappeared in the long river of time or were buried deep in the loess, and it is difficult to see the light of day again. After all, even in a country with a rich historical heritage like our country, there are not many totems in the world. I never thought that in a place like Norway, such a surprise has always existed."

Jiang Shaojun was filled with emotion.

You know, although China also has a large number of totem legends and mythological sites, time is long and history is ruthless, so not many of them can be truly passed down.

The existence of Wa Snake and Xuan Snake in such good condition is a gift from God to China.

And in a place like Norway, an existence like the Juke family could exist so high-profile and yet low-key in the world, which surprised him and made him quite curious.
