Amides spread the flag on the round table, and everyone’s eyes focused on it.
The flag was predominantly blue, with fine white lines. In the center was a semi-circle with a hook-like design, resembling a ring. The interior of the semi-circle was pure white, creating a strong visual impact.
Amides pondered, "This indeed isn’t any known human pattern from the Fire Epoch."
Professor Barrett gently caressed the flag.
"This is a peculiar fabric, processed with special spiritual energy extraction. It’s definitely not produced by Trolian."
Professor Bins said, "This artistic style is also sothing we’ve never seen before. This must be an independently developed human civilization."
The most significant part of the flag was the two lines of text at the bottom.
"The fire of Saint Reel burns eternally!" This phrase undoubtedly confird that "Saint Reel" was a Fire King City and had no other implications.
"White Sect, Aurora Research Group, First Aurora Researcher, Adam Yareel." This phrase indicated that the White Sect was subordinate to Saint Reel, much like the Holy Church being subordinate to Trolian.
The Aurora Group was a sect under the White Sect, and its mission was likely to study various ancient artifacts.
In summary, this is clearly a maturely developed human civilization.
The language used in the text is a common language from the Fire Epoch, which is normal, as is the lingua franca of Trolian.
However, there were still doubts: "How can we be certain it cos from another human civilization in the Dark Epoch?"
Amides said, "It can be sent to the chanical Research Institute for identification. The pignt of the text, the subtle changes to the fabric during writing, will make the identification much clearer."
Date identification based on materials may not be convincing, as there could be many reasons for misjudgnt, but date identification of the text is undeniable evidence.
Although the identification results have not yet co out, everyone has basically recognized this conclusion in their hearts.
Liszt, suppressing his excitent, exclaid, "Your Majesty, I request we conduct a Dark Expedition of the highest standard. This ti, we will undoubtedly take an unprecedented step. The union of humankind will turn a new page for the Dark Epoch."
The highest standard ans that the Royal City will dispatch at least three special level forces and provide maximum support to supply the expedition, eting its needs as much as possible.
Nobody was surprised; this was an expected course of action.
Archbishop Horus said solemnly, "Not only that, this is our first contact with another Fire King City in the Dark Epoch. We should also prepare gifts and have envoys representing Trolian civilization accompany us. Therefore, the team should include scholars, professors, elders, and candidates representing the King’s fire."
Horus’s words enlightened everyone, and the Holy Fire Sacrificial Ground beca quiet as everyone pondered how to communicate with another human civilization.
"Horus."
At this ti, the King spoke.
"I think there’s no need to rush. This matter can first be discussed by the Supre Council and Jinworth Society to formulate an impeccable plan."
"Our primary task is to find the existence of Saint Reel."
"Liszt, as the pioneer, can inform them of the existence of Trolian Fire King City in the Dark Epoch. Further content will be communicated by a dedicated team dispatched from Trolian Royal City later."
This proposal was agreed upon by everyone.
Horus bowed, "Your Majesty, your thoughtful consideration is indeed comprehensive."
The matter was thus decided, and the next Dark Expedition would depart in a day, with all supplies prepared under the charge of Chief Hullen. However, the candidates for the three special level combatants were yet to be determined.
Liszt had only one request: Rod must be among them.
He is a natural explorer; no one is more suitable to delve into the darkness than him.
Horus sighed, "Space ability is truly the jewel on the crown of the Source. Unfortunately, such individuals are far too scarce in the Royal City."
Rod asked, "Isn’t there any equipnt with space ability? Like a space ring or sothing."
The King smiled and shook his head, "No... If there were, it would be a divine artifact level item, and even then, it wouldn’t offer as much space as yours."
"Then how did you bring back the findings from previous explorations of the darkness?"
Liszt looked at him in surprise, "By carrying them back, of course. We don’t forcibly move everything at once, but rather transport in multiple trips. As long as the route is opened, the expedition isn’t difficult."
"However, if the danger is too great, we might have to abandon part of the gains."
added.
"Moreover, the opened route doesn’t last forever. When the black fog changes, the original route gets subrged, requiring it to be reopened."
said, "So, it’s still best for soone like you to do it."
The King agreed in principle to this request, but rejected Liszt’s request to have Rod join the Investigator Legion.
Not even as a part-ti commander.
"Rod is not just a dark explorer. Just because he’s good at exploring the darkness doesn’t an he should be the commander of the Investigator Legion. He also excels at exploring sewers, but should I make him the commander of the Sewer Legion?"
This retort left Liszt speechless, forcing him to abandon the tempting fantasy.
The final matter was about clues concerning the Source Prophecy.
