Chapter 277 010: Lake Palace

"Is there anything strange here?" Luo Xi was extremely surprised.

After looking for a long time, he still couldn't figure out what was going on. He opened the elemental vision and observed again, but still found nothing.

"under!"

Lina's voice was heard from the lake again. She had already dived into the lake and half of her head popped out to shout at Luo Xi.

Is there something underneath? Luo Xi looked strange. He had observed the bottom of the lake before, but the elemental vision showed that there was no elemental reaction from below, so it did not attract his attention. Hearing Lina's words, he focused his sight again and looked carefully for a long time, but still found nothing.

"Come down quickly, what are you waiting for?" Lina shouted with a frown.

"Oh, I see."

Although he didn't discover it, Luo Xi still had great faith in Lina. After all, this ghost had advantages that he could hardly reach. If she hadn't discovered it, she wouldn't have bothered him.

He then took out two mermaid gills from the space ring. After seeing this magic item in Green's hands last time, Luo Xi thought it was very useful and asked Green for one afterwards. He originally wanted to buy it with magic stones, but Green refused to accept it, so he generously gave one to Luo Xi.

"Plop!" After sticking to the mermaid's gills, Luo Xi jumped into the lake.

The mermaid's gills are not only usable in the ocean, but can also be used in any water environment. The principle is that it allows the wizard to have the same ability as fish, filtering out the air in the water element and thus gaining the ability to breathe underwater.

"So slow, what are you dawdling for?" Lina complained.

Luo Xi rolled his eyes: "Do you think everyone can move freely in the water like you? We are land creatures, don't I have to make some preparations?"

"I know, I know." Lina said embarrassedly.

Luo Xi said: "Okay, where is the discovery you mentioned? Take me there quickly."

Follow Lina and swim all the way down to the lake.

This lake didn't look like anything special from the outside, but after coming down, Luo Xi unexpectedly discovered that the lake was incredibly deep. He kept going downstream until the light source almost completely disappeared, but there was still no sign of the lake bottom.

"Is this place almost a hundred meters away?"

Luo Xi looked around. Now all he could see was muddy mud and water plants. The sunlight could hardly reach here, and it was dark all around.

He turned on the elemental vision and took a look. There were too many water plants and a lot of aquatic creatures around. Even the elemental vision could not easily distinguish the environment. In the end, he could only take out a moonlight gem for lighting from the space ring and followed Lina forward.

After swimming downstream for another hundred meters or so, there was finally a different scene below.

"Is this a palace?"

The bottom of the lake is like another world, hiding an ancient relic buried by time. It is a palace built of huge stones, as if it grew naturally from the bottom of the lake, coexisting harmoniously with the surrounding environment. The stone pillars of the palace are carved with exquisite patterns, which may describe an ancient story or symbolize some mysterious power. Although these patterns have experienced the baptism of countless years, they are still clearly visible, revealing a vicissitudes and solemn beauty.

Inside the palace, the stone steps are winding and lead to the unknown depths. Each stone slab seems to carry the traces of time, exuding a quiet and profound atmosphere. Here, time seems to become slow and long, and every sound of falling water seems to be knocking the echo of history.

Through the clear lake water, the sunlight sprinkled on the ruins, adding a bit of vitality and vigor to this ancient world. Occasionally, fish shuttled between the ruins and the lake, their figures swaying in the water, adding a bit of liveliness and agility to this quiet and mysterious scene.

"Look at your coordinates." Lina reminded at this time.

"Oh, yes."

Luo Xi quickly took out the magic compass and took a second to determine the coordinates. The coordinates displayed on the compass were quite close to the coordinates he had recorded before.

"It should be here."

Luo Xi licked the corner of his mouth. There were some exquisite patterns on these broken stone pillars. These patterns were very similar to the patterns on the metal shells of the previous alchemical puppets. Obviously, the metal puppets should be guarding this place.

The metal puppet that is just guarding the gate is so powerful that Luo Xi is becoming more and more looking forward to this relic.

"Come on, let's go in and take a look."

Luo Xi took out a few more moonstones worth of money and put them aside. These moonstones naturally floated around Luo Xi and slowly surrounded him. This was a little trick of using the static force field, which could make objects float around him.

The faint white light released by several moon gems illuminated the way forward for Luo Xi. With the help of this light, he began to explore the palace at the bottom of the lake.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

The stone pillars of the palace were carved with exquisite patterns, which were still clearly visible despite the baptism of time. Curiosity and excitement flashed in Luo Xi's eyes, and he knew that he was about to uncover a long-forgotten secret.

He swam gently to the entrance of the palace and gently touched the closed stone door with his magic wand. With a slight vibration, the stone door slowly opened, revealing a deep passage. Luo Xi took a deep breath and walked in.

Inside the palace, Luo Xi used his magic wand to illuminate everything around him. He saw the winding stone steps and felt the quiet and profound atmosphere emanating from the ancient stone slabs. He seemed to be able to hear the echoes of history and feel the breath of those who once lived here.

"Have you figured out the origin of this palace, Luo Xi?" Lina asked curiously while looking around.

“It’s not clear yet.”

Luo Xi shook his head, but then added: "But this is the pattern of the eternal flower. This pattern is exclusive to the royal family in Xigrama, and generally only royal women use it."

"In addition, this kind of palace layout is also a characteristic of the Xigrama royal family, so if I'm not mistaken, this place should have belonged to a Xigrama royal princess in the past."

"and"

Having said that, Luo Xi paused.

Princes and princesses of Sigrama were classified according to royal custom. They were divided into thirteen levels according to the purity of their bloodline, their distance from the central royal family, etc. Judging from the specifications of the palace that Rosie had seen so far, it was only available to princesses of at least the top five ranks, also known as the morning royal family.

"Upper Fifth Class Royal Family"

Luo Xi licked the corner of his mouth, and became more excited. (End of this chapter)
