Dragon Hidden in the Sky

Chapter 552 Deciphering the Parchment

Soon, one figure after another emerged from the staircase below.

Before long, the entire spacious room was filled with people, a total of thirty or forty people!

After everyone sat down, they all fell silent. Some people took out cigarettes and started smoking, while others looked around with great interest.

The atmosphere in the room was somewhat somber!

"Let's all share our thoughts!" Wang Yang said.

“There are only five of them. Ye Qing and Lin Qianyu are both super-powerful, but there are only two of them. I think we should just kill them all and leave them here forever!” one of them said. “If they ask us later, we can just say that they went deep into the ice wall and disappeared.”

“Didn’t you receive the news? Although Ye Qing is young, he defeated Louis Vigus, so he’s at least a peerless master. He might even have reached the Awakening realm.” Another person said, “Killing him is unrealistic!”

"What if they discover that place?" another person asked.

"Let's find it first!" someone said. "The area behind this ice wall is so huge, I don't believe they're so lucky to have found it."

"In short, we're all in the same boat now. After that incident eight years ago was covered up, all our interests are now intertwined. I don't want any accidents to happen," Wang Yang said. "Killing them isn't out of the question. I'm only one step away from awakening, and you all successfully reached the Super level thanks to what you found there!"

“No matter how strong he is, he can’t be that strong on his own. I suggest we send someone to follow him first. If they really find that place, we have to keep them here!” Wang Yang took a deep breath.

Upon hearing his words, everyone nodded thoughtfully.

"Who's going?" Wang Yang asked.

"Old Yan, how's your team going?" Wang Yang asked, looking at one of the middle-aged men who was smoking.

The middle-aged man nodded and said, "Okay!"

“Here’s what we’ll do. You all go around to that place first and wait in front of it. If you encounter them, just say you were on your way back from probing the ice wall and happened to run into them,” Wang Yang said. “When the time comes, don’t clash with them. If they go to that place and send someone back, since we’re going to make a move, we need to make sure they all stay in this place. Otherwise, if we’re exposed, Yi Shuihan and Zhuge Tianqing won’t let us off the hook!”

"Alright!" Old Yan nodded and said, "Brothers, pack your things and get ready to go!"

……

On the other side, after Ye Qing and the others had been walking for a while, Z spoke up: "Now, can we take out the blueprints and take a look?"

Ye Qing nodded, glancing at Lin Qianyu beside him.

Lin Qianyu put down the huge backpack and took out a blueprint from it.

The parchment unfolded like a painting. Ye Qing had actually been looking at it for a long time, but there were no markings on it, so he couldn't figure it out at all.

Z took it, glanced at it a few times, and his pupils contracted slightly as he said, "Interesting."

"Han Xiao, give me some money!" Z said.

“Yes, sir!” Han Xiao nodded quickly.

“I may need to calculate the time, so please wait here for a while!” Z said.

Ye Qing asked curiously, "Why do we need to calculate?"

“What’s sketched here is just a picture, or even just a painting, to you, but to me, it’s completely different,” Z said with a smile. “Just wait a moment!”

Ye Qing nodded and said, "Alright then!"

They then chose to rest on the spot, waiting for Z to decipher the code.

However, the whole process was much more complicated than he had imagined.

Z kept writing equation after equation on the paper, making Ye Qing's head throb.

"Is this guy just pretending to be me?" Ye Qing wondered to himself.

The whole process was much longer than Ye Qing had imagined.

Z kept calculating, filling dozens of pages with calculations, and more than three hours passed. Finally, he unfolded all the drawings and, using some of the calculations he had made, sketched a line on the last drawing!

"It's out!" Z exclaimed excitedly. "Give me the blueprints!"

Ye Qing handed over the parchment scroll again.

Z started comparing and contrasting the images, then spent a long time on them before drawing a line on them. Based on this line, he squinted and said, "Now it seems that the base is located around this point, and our destination should be this place."

At this point, he marked a point at the end of the line.

"You're not kidding us, are you!" Ye Qing said, "You listed so many equations on one diagram, and in the end you actually calculated a line? What the hell is this?"

"Ye Qing!" Z said excitedly, "My speculation is getting closer and closer to the truth. Your drawing is actually a diagram composed of countless mathematical formulas. How can I describe it to you?"

"Stop talking, I won't understand even if you do!" Ye Qing said, "Anyway, just follow your plan!"

Beside him, the second brother frowned and said, "I wonder how far inland it is. If it's too far, I don't know if we'll be able to reach our destination!"

“Let’s go!” Z said. “But I’m more curious now. This blueprint, apart from me, should be decipherable by no one else in this world. How did your parents manage to get into this place back then using this blueprint?”

Ye Qing frowned.

"In short, Ye Qing, this diagram is exactly as I thought. It has existed for countless years, yet it possesses such profound and terrifying knowledge that even the top mathematicians on Earth today have not mastered. There must have been a terrifying civilization on Earth in ancient times, but we don't know exactly what happened, and they disappeared!" Z said excitedly.
