Attention From Above?

Has there been new progress in the Great Wilderness Mountain Range?

Lin Chao's heart was calm.

In truth, he wasn't overly concerned about the matters of the Great Wilderness Mountain Range.

Those were all things of the past.

Still, he opened the livestream.

At the scene of the livestream, it was brightly lit.

"Old Liu, we've dug through, and inside is a huge hollow valley.

Inside, there are bones everywhere, a vast expanse of white, like a pit of ten thousand corpses!"

The staff member up ahead trembled, his voice shaking as he spoke.

Wang Jiao immediately grew interested—this was the discovery of the main battlefield.

After all, though they had been excavating for a long time and unearthed over a thousand bones, what they had dug up so far wasn't the core or the true battlefield.

Now, with the real battlefield about to appear before them, how could Liu Chengchao not be shocked and excited?

"Old Liu, should we go in now?" Wang Jiao's voice was also a bit excited. "Such a scene should be seen by the audience in front of the screens!"

"Alright." Liu Chengchao took a deep breath.

The main battlefield should contain more information.

Perhaps they could even find the truth behind the annihilation of this Wolf Guard.

Maybe they could also see the remains of Dafeng soldiers.

Or perhaps, that mysterious Heize might truly appear.

Of course, what would appear before them would surely be bones as well.

The group walked forward, their hearts trembling slightly.

The camera was also aimed straight ahead, with hundreds of thousands of people watching the livestream.

This number was still growing.

Ahead was a dug-out opening.

Entering through the opening led them into the belly of the mountain.

The terrain inside was extremely strange, pitch-black and sunless.

But under the illumination of countless powerful lights, it was as bright as day.

Liu Chengchao walked in, his gaze sweeping across.

What met his eyes was a vast expanse of white!

Bones everywhere!

Human bones, Giant Wolf bones!

These bones were scattered haphazardly, roughly estimated to be at least several thousand.

This scene struck Liu Chengchao and the others, as well as the livestream audience, with great force.

In the livestream, the barrage was a flurry.

"I've never seen so many bones in my life!"

"How fierce must that battle have been back then!"

"This Wolf Guard was completely wiped out, wasn't it?"

"This fight was to the death, no surrender—too terrifying!"

"Which army exactly fought here?"

"It's never been recorded—could both sides have annihilated each other?"

"Impossible. In ancient feudal armies, if the casualty rate exceeded 5% in a single battle, they'd collapse and retreat.

Even if the army led by Heize and the Wolf Guard were both elite among elites, a casualty rate over 30% would absolutely break them.

There's no way both sides could be completely wiped out."

"The guy above is right. A backward system simply couldn't create an army comparable to today's modern forces.

Even some extremely fanatical religious armies couldn't keep fighting if casualties exceeded half."

"Is it possible that this army was willing to die, already resolved to perish?"

"The human heart is the hardest thing to test.

You're speaking so passionately now, but if you were put on the battlefield, you might be the first to run."

"Rather than saying this army was willing to die, it's more likely that Heize descended like a demon god and single-handedly wiped out ten thousand Wolf Guards.

After Heize died, his demonic soul lingered, cursing the Giant Wolves of the wolf clan."

The Wolf Clan has fallen to this point.

It is precisely because of Heize's demon soul curse that these bones have remained undecayed for a thousand years, unable to enter reincarnation, enduring the wind and rain for millennia.

"I think that makes a lot of sense!"

"Youya, if your book isn't in the bookstore, I'll definitely go smash it."

In the livestream room, the audience was shocked, but there were still plenty of people cracking jokes.

Of course, the mystery of the bones remaining undecayed for a thousand years had always been an enigma.

Although some experts had debunked it, citing special geographical conditions and multiple factors.

These words could fool outsiders completely.

But those in the know weren't so easily deceived.

The historical disappearance of the Wolf Guard was definitely not that simple.

It carried an air of mystery, or rather, suspense.

"Old Liu, can we now fully confirm that this is the historical Wolf Clan from back then?" Wang Jiao asked from the side.

"Ninety percent sure." Liu Chengchao looked ahead.

The main battlefield had appeared, and after surveying it, a lot of useful information could be uncovered.

Perhaps the truth of history could now be laid out before their eyes.

"Now, we...?" Wang Jiao inquired about the next move.

"Head back." Liu Chengchao spoke. "The bones here need to be counted and tested.

I'll also return in the next few days to organize and investigate."

In a building in Cangxi City.

Liu Chengchao arrived, travel-worn.

Qin Jiawei's face lit up with joy. "Chengchao, you're here. Have a seat. We're just missing you now."

"Alright, Dean Qin." Liu Chengchao showed a respectful expression and sat down in a chair.

He took a deep breath.

Sure enough, the matter of the Great Wilderness Mountain Range had caught the attention of the highest levels.

After all, in the eyes of the public, this was just a historical event to pass the time and rewrite the history books.

But the higher-ups saw things differently.

They weren't concerned with how the Wolf Guard was wiped out; they only cared about how these bones had been preserved undecayed for a thousand years.

After all, bones left out in the open that could remain undecayed for a millennium.

This had a huge impact on biology, chemistry, and other fields.

Qin Jiawei was the dean of the School of Biology at Great Xia Top 2 University. The research institute he had established boasted a highly capable research team with many achievements and patents in gene editing.

Last year, Qin Jiawei had even won the Great Xia Highest Science and Technology Award, making him an undisputed authority.

Now, he had brought his team to Cangxi City.

"Chengchao, take a look at this document first." Qin Jiawei placed a thick stack of papers in front of Liu Chengchao.

Liu Chengchao looked at the contents and began to read through them carefully.
