Mission Complete, Claiming the Reward (Thanks to 'Aoyu' for the Silver Alliance Leader Donation)

Inside the enormous library at Crawford Manor, Lara climbed a ladder to search, occasionally pulling out a thick book to flip through before handing it down to Jiang Hao.

"I read those books a long time ago, when I was still a child. I treated them like biographies back then and found them interesting, but I can't remember exactly which one it was," Lara said.

"We have plenty of time. We'll search through them one by one," Jiang Hao said as he took the book.

The two searched through books in the library and finally found a historical document about Atlantis. Lara cried out happily, "Jon, look here. There's an explanation of Atlantis crystals here."

Jiang Hao took it and began reading.

The Atlantis Civilization was believed to have been located on the Great Western Continent. It was a highly advanced nation that worshipped the ocean and called themselves children of the sea god. The creator of Atlantis was Poseidon.

Atlantis was immensely prosperous, with abundant goods and no worries about food or clothing. They possessed an energy system entirely different from modern society's, using crystals to provide power. A single giant crystal could meet an entire city's energy needs.

At the same time, the Atlanteans had mastered a cultivation method. They used crystals to train themselves and become powerful, gaining abilities similar to what modern people understood as superpowers. These abilities were mainly psychic powers, and the tools they used for cultivation were crystals.

The book also recorded other details. For instance, Atlantis selected suitable children and trained them from a young age, developing human potential through a cultivation method similar to seated meditation. Crystals served as energy devices during their training, and this cultivation could awaken all kinds of abilities.

Seeing this, Jiang Hao and Lara exchanged glances.
