Chapter 416 Stone Chamber
After a quick glance, Li Qian discovered that the space inside the underground palace was quite spacious.
Since the archaeological team placed some crystals for lighting in every corner, the whole space does not appear dim.
After entering, the three of them unconsciously slowed down their pace.
Some excavation and exploration work is still going on, and many staff members of the archaeological team are busy.
Li Qian didn't want to disturb them.
I just came here to gain some experience and cannot affect their work.
The three of them walked lightly, because although the underground palace was spacious, it was not as large as the ground after all. So Li Qian was not in a hurry. He started from the left hand side and browsed through the stone walls and statues one by one.
Li Qian did not miss any details and tried hard to memorize the images of the stone carvings and the patterns of the murals.
He didn't know which information would be useful, so he could only use this stupid method.
After browsing through most of the stone murals and statues in the palace, although there was no change in Li Qian's expression, he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in his heart.
The progress of Task Three, which is the second evolution method of the Four-tailed Cat, has not improved and remains at 75%.
In other words, after browsing around, I didn't gain any inspiration.
Although Li Qian was a little disappointed, he was not discouraged. He focused his attention on a certain location to the north.
Seeing this, Bai Bingbing walked over quickly and continued to introduce Li Qian, "There are three more stone chambers here."
Li Qian nodded and followed.
Without hesitation, he walked directly into the stone chamber closest to him, which was the one on the far right.
Bai Bingbing and Irina followed closely behind and went in.
After entering, Li Qian discovered that the stone chamber was not big, probably less than one hundred square meters.
The most obvious one is the statue standing in the center.
To be precise, there are two statues, but they are connected together, giving people the feeling that they are a mother and child statue.
The main body of the statue is a Rong person.
The Rong people were about two meters and two centimeters tall, covered in rugged iron armor, and looked very majestic.
Next to the armored warrior, there was a white cat lying there that was about the size of an adult tiger.
This white cat statue is very recognizable, and its biggest feature is... the vertical eye on its forehead.
It looks very extraordinary.
"There is a statue like this in each of the three stone chambers." Bai Bingbing continued to explain Li Qian's doubts, "These three statues should be the most respected people in Luoying City."
Li Qian nodded, agreeing with this point of view.
If you are not a person of high moral character and prestige, you will not be treated as having a statue erected for you.
He is most likely the leader or ancestor of the Rong people in Luoying City.
"The three cat-like pet statues beside the Rong statue should be their strongest fighting force, right?" Li Qian speculated based on what Bai Bingbing had just said.
Bai Bingbing nodded, and then said: "Don't you find it strange?"
"What's strange?" Li Qian didn't know what Bai Bingbing wanted to ask and was a little confused.
Bai Bingbing looked at the statues in the stone chamber and pointed out a strange phenomenon, "The statues here all correspond to one person and one pet!"
"It seems that this is indeed the case..." Li Qian recalled the scene he had just seen on the ground, and combined it with the situation here, he fell into deep thought. Bai Bingbing walked in slowly, her eyes fixed on the statue, "That's because... the Rong people of the Fourth Era also took the extraordinary route of taming beasts, but their mainstream contract method was that one person only contracted one pet."
After a pause, she continued, "Just like some of the unique secrets in our world, they can greatly increase the growth rate of pets, and can also focus on training a pet."
Li Qian nodded and also put forward his own opinion, "But the limitations are also obvious. The flexibility of the battle is biased. Once it is restrained, it will be very troublesome."
In this way, the two of them talked while looking around the statue.
After a while, Li Qian, who had gained nothing, shifted his gaze and focused on the stone murals on the walls on both sides of the stone chamber.
The murals are densely packed and contain a lot of content.
The records are also complicated.
There are battles between pets, there are Rong people fighting against enemies together with their pets, there are strange flowers, and there are even tadpole-like runes that are completely incomprehensible.
[Task 8: The second evolution method of the four-tailed cat, inspiration value +83, current task progress %! ]
When Li Qian's eyes swept over a pattern, a prompt sound immediately rang in his mind.
"This is the fruit of the snake pupil tree..." Li Qian observed it carefully. He couldn't help but frowned, as if he saw something.
But he soon shook his head and denied his previous opinion, "No, no, this is not the fruit of the snake pupil tree. It's just a fruit that looks very similar to the fruit of the snake pupil tree."
"What is this? It looks like the fruit of the snake-pupil tree?" Li Qian pointed at the pattern on the stone mural and asked.
"It just looks like the fruit of the snake pupil tree, but actually, it is not the fruit of the snake pupil tree. I heard from Teacher Yang that this kind of fruit seems to be called 'Bi Ling Jing'." Bai Bingbing recalled and said.
At the moment when the three words "Bi Ling Jing" came out of his mouth, the inspiration value in Li Qian's mind increased by two points, and the task progress reached 85%.
The occurrence of this situation means that the Bilingjing is 100% one of the extraordinary materials needed for evolution.
Li Qian silently memorized the name and didn't say anything more, but continued browsing.
When Li Qian saw the densely packed little figures on the stone murals dancing a strange dance, his heart was stirred again.
[Task 10: The second evolution method of the four-tailed cat, inspiration value +95, current task progress %! ]
Suppressing the joy in his heart, Li Qian continued to look at Bai Bingbing, trying to get more information from her.
But this time his idea failed.
Because the latter shook his head helplessly, indicating that he didn't know either.
Li Qian decided that after leaving the underground palace, he would go and ask Teacher Liang. It was normal for Bai Bingbing not to know, after all, she was just a freshman.
Teacher Liang is different. She is the captain of this archaeological team and a well-known archaeologist in the entire Dongxia Federation. She should know some information.
Soon, Li Qian finished browsing all the murals in this stone chamber.
The three of them continued to move to the second stone chamber next to it.
This second stone chamber is also filled with densely packed murals.
There is also a statue standing in the middle.
However, this statue is different from the previous one. Although the main body of the statue is also a warrior, he is not wearing armor, but a loose robe.
The pet statue standing next to him is also different. It has a human-like body, a pair of pointed ears, and a long tail behind it, a bit like... a cat-man.
