"Since it's already burned down, how can you prove it?" Su Huilan became even more curious. "I didn't see any mulberry trees in Wuzhong either!"
"I couldn't prove it before because I'd never seen that mulberry tree. But now, we can infer it from the locations of the other three known Holy Land."
How do you deduce this?
"Before Petru told the story of the Redbeard Family, I never thought that the Egypt pyramids were also Holy Land, because the timeline didn't match up. After Professor Silva's expedition team measured the mirror-symmetry between the underwater pyramids and the Pyramid of Khufu, what was the most puzzling thing for you?"
"What I can't understand the most... is how the Egypt, 4,000 years ago, came to the distant South Pacific and how they built an identical pyramid on the seabed?"
Situ laughed and said, "That's conventional thinking. I used to think the same way, but I just couldn't figure it out. Then I thought, could it be that the Egypt discovered the underwater pyramids first, and then built one on land to imitate them? The more I think about it, the more likely it seems. It's even possible that the Egypt never even came to the South Pacific, but only obtained the blueprints and coordinates of the underwater pyramids, so they built an identical one at the point of symmetry at the Earth's center."
Furthermore, I've visited those Egypt pyramids more than once and haven't detected any Mental Power Field, so I've never considered Egypt Awakening Sacred Land sites for awakening. But now that Petru has proven it to be one of these Holy Land (http://www. hetushu. com. com), it's possible that Egypt, being in the heart of civilization, suffered severe human destruction. Then, after comparing the coordinates, I understood. The coordinates of Awakening Sacred Land have strict requirements, and as Qingmu said, they have some unknown but close relationship with the Earth's magnetic field.
As Situ spoke, he began to tap the air with his scepter, as if there were a globe in front of him.
The Egypt pyramids are located near 30°E and 30°N, while the Tapu in the South Pacific are located near 150°W and 30°S. The underwater inverted pyramid and the Pyramid of Khufu, one upright and one inverted, are situated on the line connecting the Earth's center, exhibiting geocentric symmetry.
This is unlikely to be a coincidence. Do other Holy Land sites share similar relationships?
My birthplace is in Vera Town, Argentina, about 300 kilometers from Santa Fe City. The gold mine is located between Vera Town and Governor Crespo Town, roughly at 60°W and 30°S. If one of the other two Holy Land is also geocentrically symmetrical to it, then it should be around 120°E and 30°N.
I haven't checked the coordinates of Liuying Lane, and I don't have a map on hand right now, but I know that the entire Three Wu region is roughly located in that area. The Three Wu region has been famous for its sericulture since ancient times, and it's covered with mulberry trees. If we take the mulberry groves as the center and the Mulberry Garden as the core, forming a Sacred Land of Wood, wouldn't that be a reasonable assumption?"
Su Huilan thought about it and felt it made sense. She went to look at Qingmu and found that Qingmu was still in a daze, and even the Crow above his head seemed to be motionless like a statue.
"And what about the fifth Holy Land?"
"To deduce the fifth one, we need to carefully rearrange the coordinates of these four locations again—" Situ pointed in the air with his scepter again, " The Pyramids of Giza are located at the intersection of 30° East longitude and 30° North latitude; shifting 90 degrees eastward from this point, we arrive at the intersection of 120° East longitude and 30° North latitude, where the Wuzhong region is located; continuing eastward by 90 degrees, we reach the intersection of 150° West longitude and 30° South latitude, where the underwater pyramids are located; continuing eastward by 90 degrees, we arrive at the intersection of 60° West longitude and 30° South latitude, where the Vera Gold Mine is located; continuing eastward by 90 degrees, we move back up to the 30° North latitude line, returning to the Pyramids of Giza."
These four points are 90 degrees apart in longitude, two are on the 30° North latitude line and two are on the 30° South latitude line. Connecting these four points, they form a perfect square, and the diagonal of this square passes right through the Earth's center. This is no coincidence!
"What does that mean?" Alice asked curiously.
Su Huilan seemed to have thought of something, but couldn't quite put her finger on it.
Having already regained her composure, Mrs. Larry pondered for a moment before saying, "The rectangular plane formed by these four points cuts the Earth diagonally in two. If we connect these four points to the North Magnetic Pole, it forms a regular square pyramid, or a pyramid shape."
" North Magnetic Pole?"
"Yes, because of the Earth's magnetic declination, the line connecting the magnetic poles does not coincide with the axis of rotation. Therefore, the North Magnetic Pole and Arctic. The position of the magnetic poles is constantly changing slowly. The North Magnetic Pole pole is roughly located near the intersection of 75°W and 75°N, which, if connected with the four points Mr. Stone just mentioned, forms the vertex of a regular square pyramid," Mrs. Larry patiently explained.
"So, the fifth Holy Land is located at the North Magnetic Pole?" Alice exclaimed with incredible excitement. "Five Holy Land form a pyramid, and the apex of the pyramid is right at the North Magnetic Pole! That's amazing!"
"It could also be the South Magnetic Pole," Situ said. "If it can connect with the North Magnetic Pole to form a pyramid, it can naturally connect with the South Magnetic Pole as well. Moreover, there's still no reasonable scientific explanation for the formation of Earth's magnetism, including the phenomenon of magnetic pole reversal, which I suspect is related to this Mental Power Field. Of course, if we must determine the location of the fifth Holy Land, the North Magnetic Pole is more likely."
"Why?"
"Because the two magnetic poles are not perfectly symmetrical with the Earth's center, the South Magnetic Pole is located slightly higher than the North Magnetic Pole. In addition, the Antarctic ice sheet was formed 23 million years ago, and it was already at its current size at least 5 million years ago. The difficulty of establishing Holy Land and Mental Power Field there is obviously greater than that near the North Magnetic Pole."
Of course, Holy Land couldn't be built on a magnetic pole, otherwise it would have been discovered long ago. Therefore, I speculate that the fifth Holy Land should be located on the vast ice field from northern Alaska to the Queen Elizabeth Islands.
This clarifies the corresponding Sacred Staff: the Holy Land on the ice plains corresponds to the Soul of Ice, while the remaining one in the Pacific Ocean Tapu corresponds to the Soul of Wind, which is the island we are currently on.
Among these people, Situ, Su Huilan, and Mrs. Larry are all scholars; Alice is Mrs. Larry's assistant and can be considered a semi-scientist; Ivan, Boris, and Anderson are all from the navy; Petru is the King of Pirates; and apart from Qingmu, who is still in a daze, everyone is very familiar with the geography and latitude and longitude of the earth.
Everyone was pondering Situ's words, and it seemed as if a round globe covered with lines of latitude and longitude appeared before their eyes. The globe was spinning, and an invisible hand placed five red dots on it. The dots were connected by dashed lines to form a regular square pyramid.
Just then, Qingmu, who had been lost in thought, suddenly snapped out of it. He looked at Situ and asked, "You just said that the deities who influence our consciousness have always existed, but we just don't know it, is that right?"
Situ was stunned, and so were the others, thinking to themselves, "Where were we even at this point? Where did you even begin to hear that?!"
The Crow also woke up, "Ahem... well, he's a bit slow-witted, please don't mind, quack Guagua!"
Ignoring the Crow, Qingmu continued, "Don't you find it strange that we've been sitting here like idiots in this cabin, talking about these things in front of a bunch of mummies who've been dead for hundreds of years? Why don't we go up to the deck and talk about it? And isn't it a bit abnormal that no one has questioned our strange behavior?"
Everyone looked at each other, unsure how to answer, but their hearts were pounding.
By this time, the pine resin in the torches was almost burned out, and the flames were much weaker than when they had entered.
Alice said somewhat frightenedly, "Let's go up to the deck, the fire is almost out!"
Situ pointed to the papers on the table and asked Mrs. Larry, "Could we take them upstairs?"
The lady said, "Normally, the paper in the tomb needs to be specially treated before it can be taken out, but the environment here is better than in the tomb, and the paper is very sturdy. However, I can't guarantee that the writing on the paper won't disappear in the sunlight."
Situ said, "Never mind that for now, let's take it up there first, and then decide what to do next once we get there."
Mrs. Larry nodded and picked up the stack of papers on the table.
The group left the captain's cabin and walked back along the corridor.
The Crow lazily turned over on Qingmu's head, when it suddenly saw a dark figure flash past the captain's cabin door.
Just as it was about to croak, the torch suddenly went out, plunging the passageway into darkness. The only sounds were the clatter of footsteps and the wind whipped up by clothes, softly whistling at the cabin doors on either side of the passageway.
