Chapter 84: The Press Conference of the Scholar
In the vast scholar square, there were crowds of people, scholars and people from various families were busy preparing for a grand press conference. At this moment, Long Dong and Xue Sen happened to return.
In order to deal with possible unexpected situations, the academic master and Long Dong discussed the speaking strategy in advance. They decided to keep it concise and avoid too many unnecessary words. In fact, the academic master originally intended to hide Long Dong and did not want him to attract too much attention.
On the one hand, Longdong is regarded as the trump card of Wu in the upcoming competition for resources; on the other hand, Longdong is so outstanding that he is very likely to provoke revenge from the prince.
At the press conference, Xueba explained in detail what happened that night. In order to ensure objectivity and authenticity, Xueba even invited several eyewitnesses to come on stage to tell their stories. During the press conference, Xueba and other family members expressed their strong dissatisfaction with the prince.
However, when it came to Long Dong's construction of the wall, the scholar only used a few simple words to pass it by. This nonchalant attitude immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of the audience. In order to divert the attention of the audience and protect Long Dong from being troubled, the scholar decisively revealed an extremely important news to the people on the spot.
The top student said to everyone solemnly: "We seem to have discovered mysterious ruins in the abandoned mine in Haidu. And the mysterious ruins are very likely not mined or excavated yet."
As expected, once the news of the mysterious ruins came out, it immediately attracted great attention from everyone. The young and powerful Long Dong, who had originally attracted much attention, instantly lost his spotlight.
Scholars and representatives of various families have stated that the mysterious ruins should belong to all the people of Haidu. Anyone has the right to enter and explore. Whoever finds the treasure can keep it for themselves; if they are not interested in the treasure, they can sell it to the major families in exchange for wealth.
This statement was like a bombshell, causing the whole audience to boil. For a time, exploring ruins and searching for treasures became a hot topic that everyone talked about with great relish. Longdong, which once attracted much attention, has now been forgotten by people.
After all, exploring ruins and obtaining treasures are exciting and tempting things that will undoubtedly attract more attention. In contrast, Long Dong, a stranger who is not yet fully known to the public, naturally finds it difficult to gain attention.
After the meeting, Xueba and other talents were relieved. However, unlike them, Longdong developed a strong interest in this relic.
He asked the top student with great interest: "Where is the abandoned mine? Do I have a chance to go and look for treasure?"
At this time, Xue Sen explained to Long Dong in detail: "This mine was originally rich in various mineral resources, but later during the mining process, a serious collapse occurred in the mine, resulting in the deaths of many people. However, this collapse unexpectedly exposed a mysterious ancient relic. After hearing the news, each family quickly sent people to explore the relic."
"After a search, the precious treasures have already been looted by major families. As for the remaining items, they are nothing more than the so-called 'junk' that they despise and disdain. The reason why the ruins are made public this time is simply to attract the attention of the general public and divert everyone's attention." After hearing this, Long Dong couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.
At this time, the top student at the side added: "In fact, we have not yet fully developed and explored the depths of the ruins. There seems to be a powerful force hidden in the depths, and there is an extremely solid seal. Our major families all agree that in order to break this seal and uncover the secrets inside, at least a demigod-level strength is required. Although we have tried various methods, we have never been able to successfully open it. If you are really interested in the treasure, Long Dong, you might as well go and check it out yourself. Maybe there will be new discoveries."
In the deepest part of the ruins, there lies a mysterious seal that even the most powerful families cannot uncover.
Even if this secret was made public, ordinary people would certainly be helpless. Therefore, the major families were not worried that the treasures deep in the ruins would be taken away by others.
At this moment, Long Dong's eyes sparkled with excitement: "Oh, then I have to go and see what's going on!"
Xue Sen chuckled and kindly reminded, "Hey, don't blame me for not warning you in advance. Those who have tried to break the seal have either been seriously injured or killed, or fallen into a coma and became demented. The various families have deduced that the seal was most likely set by a certain god. So, you must be careful not to get hurt by mistake."
When Long Dong heard this, he immediately became interested. He kept asking Xue Sen and others questions, wanting to know everything about the ruins in detail.
In order to get rid of Longdong, Xuesen had to show him all the treasures and minerals he had dug out from the ruins.
Long Dong carefully examined these items, trying to find some useful clues from them. However, in his eyes, these so-called treasures were just a pile of rubbish and worthless.
Long Dong couldn't help but feel speechless. He thought to himself: "You actually regard these rubbish as treasures? It's really ridiculous!"
Of course, this cannot blame Long Dong for having too high a vision. After all, Long Dong grew up among the dragons and was well-informed.
In the cave of the Dragon Clan leader, Chief Dote has collected countless precious items, including some damaged artifacts. If a skilled alchemist can help, with these treasures collected by the chief, it may be possible to forge a new artifact.
However, Long Dong still failed to find any valuable clues. After much deliberation, he finally decided to go to the depths of the ruins to find out for himself.
The so-called seal that can only be opened by demigods? Long Dong was a little skeptical about this. Facing the unknown, humans are always full of endless curiosity, and Long Dong is no exception. So he made up his mind to go deep into the ruins and uncover the truth hidden behind it.
