"Let's hope so," everyone rallied. Their morale was boosted again.
"Have you noticed that the directions in which these frozen corpses were running or struggling towards seem to be towards the central area?" Tong'en suddenly pointed out.
Wei Na and the others were stunned. They turned to look at the surrounding frozen corpses in astonishment.
"You're right," Bi Yao exclaimed.
"What does this mean?"
"What's in the palace in the center?"
"Are they trying to escape there?"
…
They started a discussion with tense and serious expressions on their faces. Eventually, they decided to head to the palace at the central location.
Regardless, it was a place they must go.
The five of them quickened their pace and soon arrived in front of a grand palace.
Wang Teng followed behind them calmly. He scanned his surroundings and observed everything.
Unlike the others who seemed to be on a treasure hunt, he appeared more like a tourist.
A flight of stone steps lay before the grand palace. It was covered with ice and extremely slippery.
The martial warriors ascended the steps carefully.
The door of the grand palace was opened. Wei Na and the others hesitated for some time before walking in.
Wang Teng had a pleasant surprise before he entered the palace.
Hey! Attribute bubbles!
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "64ce79d606107d003c23ea27", id: "pf-5140-1"})He saw many attribute bubbles floating around the grand hall.
He walked in without any hesitation and picked up the attribute bubbles.
To avoid drawing attention from Wei Na and the others, he refrained from using his spiritual power and had to pick up the ice crystals one by one.
Ancient Runes*10
Ancient Runes*10
Ancient Runes*12
…
It's Ancient Runes! Wang Teng was surprised and overjoyed.
He had picked up some Ancient Runes attributes on Instructor Sikong's warship the previous time and gained a bit of understanding about these nearly lost symbols.
But, it wasn't much.
The amount he had picked up was too small to provide him with enough knowledge for a deeper understanding.
However, inside this grand palace, he managed to pick up so many Ancient Runes attribute bubbles. Suddenly, his comprehension of these runes began to skyrocket.
After some time, all the attribute bubbles in the palace were picked up. Wang Teng heaved a sigh of relief.
Good lord!
It had been a long time since he worked so hard to pick up attributes!
In the past, he could use his spiritual power to pick them up so he didn't need to do it himself.
Well, picking up attribute bubbles by hand wasn't entirely unacceptable. It was a form of respect for the system.
Wang Teng glanced at the attributes board.
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "64cc9e79c7059f003e4ad4b0", id: "pf-5109-1"})Ancient Runes: 850/3000 (well-versed)
Well-versed stage! Wang Teng was elated. Not bad, he jumped from the foundation to the well-versed stage. It was a sizable gain.
Wang Teng was delighted when he sensed the knowledge of ancient runes in his mind.
Then, he looked at the five martial warriors. They were still searching around the grand palace for opportunities, completely unaware that he had already gained some benefits.
He ignored them and looked at the walls and pillars of the grand hall.
They were covered in various ancient runes, and it was precisely the essence of these ancient runes that created the abundance of attribute bubbles throughout the hall.
Wei Na and the others were also looking at the runes. They thought it was some kind of legacy but they appeared confused and completely unable to comprehend them.
They didn't recognize the ancient runes at all!
All they could see were various enigmatic symbols.
One could almost see the string of question marks above their heads.
"Can anyone decipher what the inscribed runes represent?" Qin Quan asked in a soft voice.
The other four people remained silent.
"Shall we dismantle these walls and bring them back?" Tong En suggested.
"I think so!" Pilder nodded in deep thought.
Wang Teng: …
These people are audacious!
He stood in front of a stone wall and analyzed the runes on it. He concluded that there was nothing of value physically. The real value was the ancient runes themselves.
However, when he was almost done deciphering the runes on the four walls, his eyes suddenly lit up.
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "663633fa8ebf7442f0652b33", id: "pf-8817-1"})He dashed past the five martial warriors and headed to the back of the grand hall.
