Heize of the Great Wilderness Mountain Range had completely drawn attention.
It was nationwide attention.
Besides the official livestream, quite a few influencers flocked to the Great Wilderness Mountain Range to ride the wave of popularity.
However, these influencers were not qualified to enter the core area.
"Hello, everyone. I'm Xiao Cui, a history streamer. We've now arrived at the Great Wilderness Mountain Range. Unfortunately, a cordon has already been set up here, and people like us aren't allowed inside.
"But we don't need to go in. Reading terrain and mountain ranges is my specialty.
"Once I've looked over these, I can roughly figure out how Heize led his troops to wipe out the Wolf Guard back then."
"You're blowing hot air again. Why not rename yourself Little Blowhard?"
"I'm not lying to you. Xiao Cui never blows hot air."
Holding up his phone as he streamed, Xiao Cui suddenly widened his eyes.
"Holy shit, a limited-edition Xia Flag!"
Xiao Cui's gaze turned toward a Xia Flag car passing ahead.
Its black body was sleek and streamlined as it drove at a slow, steady pace toward the area within the cordon.
Xiao Cui immediately aimed his camera at the car.
"Family, look! A limited-edition Xia Flag! Some big shot has come to Great Wilderness Mountain!"
The livestream chat immediately filled with a wave of 666s.
At that moment, someone asked, "What's so special about a limited-edition Xia Flag? Is it really expensive?"
Xiao Cui's expression turned solemn. "Xia Flag has nothing to do with whether it's expensive or not.
"Ordinary people—and even rich tycoons—can't buy this kind of car no matter how much money they have. Only people with power and influence can get one."
Xiao Cui began educating his livestream viewers.
Xia Flag cars were divided into four tiers.
The fourth tier was the Elite Edition. Only elite figures or top talents from all walks of life could purchase one, and only a thousand were sold each year.
The third tier was the Pillar Edition. Only high-ranking officials or political figures from major cities could purchase one.
The second tier was the Noble Edition. This type of car was exclusively assigned to royal family members and Cabinet members.
The first tier was the Supreme Edition. This was not a car ordinary people could even ride in. According to currently disclosed information, only the King, the Queen, and the nine members of the Cabinet possessed one.
Beyond these tiers, there was actually another kind of Xia Flag—the limited edition, like the car passing before them.
The true first tier was the limited-edition Xia Flag—the very car that had just gone by.
This sort of car existed only in legend. Even Xiao Cui did not know the criteria for purchasing one.
Rumor had it that only those who had made tremendous contributions to Great Xia could possess such a vehicle.
"To think someone like that entered the Great Wilderness Mountain Range. It seems Heize's matter has already caught the attention of those above."
As he spoke, Xiao Cui was actually somewhat puzzled.
To be honest, Heize's case was, at most, a historical event.
Even if it were unearthed, it would not have any impact on the current situation.
At most, it would affect history textbooks, exam material, and television dramas.
Yet now, it seemed that a National Scholar had come to the Great Wilderness Mountain Range. Everything about this carried a faint air of strangeness.
After all, this was only a historical event. There were not even many valuable artifacts worth collecting, so why would someone of this caliber come?
"Whose car is that?"
"Who came to Great Wilderness Mountain?"
"Could it be that what the Life and Death Stele said was true? Heize defeated the Wolf Guard alone and caught the attention of those above?"
"You've watched too many TV dramas. Defeated the Wolf Guard alone, my ass.
"If Heize came back to life, he'd be doing well just to beat a single Giant Wolf!"
"Heize was a man, not a god."
"But he was the Gun God!"
"You're so good at arguing for argument's sake, come report to my construction site tomorrow. Meals and lodging included."
Meanwhile, the limited-edition Xia Flag stopped within the cordon.
People from Great Wilderness Mountain immediately came out to receive it.
The Xia Flag pulled over at the roadside. Its door opened, and a woman stepped out.
A layer of black gauze covered her head, making her features impossible to see.
Still, judging by her figure, she had to be extremely young.
Several high-ranking figures from the Great Wilderness Mountain Range stepped forward. When they saw the woman, respectful expressions appeared on their faces.
"Greetings, Miss Jia."
They did not know who the woman before them was. They only knew to address her as Miss Jia.
This Miss Jia had rushed over from Kyoto.
Her identity was unknown.
But their superiors had instructed them to receive her with utmost care. They only knew that she was a big shot.
The very big kind.
"Mm." The woman nodded.
Several female officers with very high ranks accompanied Miss Jia.
When the several people in charge at the Great Wilderness Mountain Range saw those women, they immediately grew solemn and respectful.
In their hearts, they formed even more guesses about Miss Jia's identity.
It was likely even higher than they had previously imagined.
At first, they had thought she might be the family member of some Cabinet official, or perhaps a member of the royal family.
But now, it seemed that Miss Jia herself was a person of power and status.
Beside her, a female officer spoke. "How is the excavation here progressing?"
Li Yangji, the person in charge of the Great Wilderness Mountain excavation, hurriedly replied, "It is underway. So far, we have discovered 1,972 sets of Wolf Clan remains.
"However, according to our estimates, the excavation progress should be less than one-fifth complete."
"Mm." The female officer glanced at Miss Jia beside her before continuing, "What information have you found regarding Heize?"
"Expert Liu should explain that," Li Yangji said.
He was not an expert in this field. Though he knew quite a lot, he certainly did not know as much as Liu Chengchao.
"At present, regarding Heize, we have found only several stone steles and a Shrine of Life and Death," Liu Chengchao said from the side.
He gave Miss Jia and the others a detailed introduction to what was inside the Shrine of Life and Death.
The contents of the Life and Death murals were exaggerated, but he did not hide anything.
The others all became somewhat curious about the Shrine of Life and Death.
"Miss Jia, would you like to visit the Shrine of Life and Death?" Li Yangji asked from the side, his voice carrying a trace of inquiry.
"Go to the Blacksmith Shop," Miss Jia said. Her voice sounded very young, like that of a teenage girl.
This made everyone present even more curious.
Who exactly was this young Miss Jia?
Yet everyone was also surprised.
Why did Miss Jia want to go to the Blacksmith Shop?
Of everything that had been uncovered so far, the Shrine of Life and Death was the most eye-catching.
The Shrine of Life and Death contained all sorts of images, which had been uploaded online.
There were even dedicated columns introducing and explaining the Shrine of Life and Death.
As for the Blacksmith Shop, only a few people were paying attention to it.
"Alright." Li Yangji said nothing more.
Thank you to Li Jiahua for the tip, thank you!
