There were also some silver-armored soldiers who came to this level tiredly. Their bodies seemed to carry the aura of bloodshed.

Clearly, there was more than one area inside the Turtle Spirit Holy Mother. For example, he was standing outside a spiral staircase. The stairs went up, and the corridor was marked, “Residential area.”

He was not the only one standing here. Liu Lanqing, Ling Shuangxue, and the others were also here. There was also Captain Song. He was the one who brought them here. He had probably arranged for them to rest.

Lin Yan simply followed behind and went up the spiral staircase to an even higher floor.

The decorations on this floor were much warmer. They were not all made of cold steel. There were blankets on the ground and rows of rooms. It was a little like the motels in his previous life.

The old man surnamed Song clearly couldn’t help but look anxious. He brought Liu Lanqing and the others to the deepest part of the corridor. It was a large room with double doors that was clearly different from the other rooms.

He pushed open the door and said, “Miss Liu, Teacher Ling, rest here for a while. In at most two hours, I will definitely find the hidden thing, whether it’s harmful or harmless. Wait a moment.”

Liu Lanqing hesitated and said, “What if… we can’t find it?”

The old man surnamed Song’s body paused slightly as he said in a deep voice, “Even if we can’t find it, we have to find it! If we don’t deal with this strange thing and it accidentally enters the prefecture capital, it will be troublesome! Furthermore, 1 have the Holy Mother’s help. I can easily lock onto this bastard and expel him easily.”

With that, he hurriedly turned around and left.

The floor of this room was completely paved with beige blankets. There were several rows of wooden leather chairs placed there. It was obvious that they were used to entertain short-distance travel.

Xie Lingyan, Chen Yuan, and the others had naturally never seen such an arrangement. From time to time, they would look around. Under Liu Lanqing’s arrangements, they sat in a corner and rested quietly.

Liu Lanqing also sat down, but their expressions were filled with worry.

Could Captain Song really find that invisible guy?

Ning Xiaohui asked, “Issuer Liu, what did Captain Song mean by ‘Holy Mother’ just now?”

Liu Lanqing said, “1 don’t know much either. It’s said that Captain Song and his clansmen regard this diving boat as a god and worship it all year round. They respectfully call it the Holy Mother.”

Ning Xiaohui was greatly surprised. “Holy Mother. Are you talking about the diving boat under our feet? Could this diving boat be alive?!”

Liu Lanqing replied, “Perhaps. However, I’ve only taken this diving boat seven to eight times. I’ve never seen the full appearance of this diving boat.

Therefore, I don’t know what this diving boat looks like. Perhaps it’s really a living creature?”

This diving boat did not only travel in the Qianyuan Prefecture. Instead, it patrolled back and forth between the Qianyuan Prefecture and the various lower prefectures. Usually, it would only stay in a prefecture for seven days or even less.

This time, the reason why she could call this boat over so quickly was completely because it was time for the Qianyuan Prefecture. Moreover, because of the Dingdeng Genius Battle, this diving boat had been wandering around the underground of Ding’an City. It was very close, so it could arrive quickly.

Liu Lanqing’s voice was solemn. “1 hope there won’t be any problems with the diving boat. Other than gold-tiered cities, all the major prefecture capitals have to rely on this diving boat to communicate with the lower cities. If there’s a problem, the passage between the prefecture capital and the lower cities will be cut off…”

Ling Shuangxue said indifferently, “Don’t worry. This diving boat has existed for far longer than you imagined. If it was so easy to cause problems, Captain Song and the others wouldn’t have respected it as the Holy Mother and worshiped it for generations.”

“For generations?”

Everyone looked at Ling Shuangxue. After all, she was a scholar and teacher of the Qianyuan Academy. She knew many secrets that ordinary people did not know. From what she said, this Holy Mother was not groundless?

However, Ling Shuangxue shook her head. “This is confidential information. I can’t say it casually. In short, just wait patiently.”

At the side, in a corner against the wall, on a blanket, Lin Yan leaned against the wall. As he ate the bowl of fried rice with egg he had just stolen from the kitchen, he was surprised.

Firstly, he was indeed tired and wanted to find a place to rest. It would be best if he could sleep.

Secondly, he had to follow Liu Lanqing and the others closely to enter the prefecture capital in time.

After all, according to Liu Lanqing, the thin crust of the ground was only ten to twenty kilometers. According to the speed of falling, they would reach their destination in less than ten minutes.

However, he did not expect that because of his appearance, Captain Song would actually decide to stop here and not move!

“This woman must be talking about the Turtle Spirit Clan!”

At this moment, Old Qin held Lin Yan’s hand and said in Lin Yan’s mind seriously.

“You remember something else?”

Another benefit of his Mind Connection Technique was that he could communicate with others while eating. In addition, the Black Tortoise Divine Armor could even isolate smells, so he could eat and drink without worry.

“I just remembered. This time, I remember a lot of things!”

Lin Yan waited for him to continue, but he didn’t expect Old Qin to hesitate.

Lin Yan immediately understood. He took out the remains of a second-grade Spirit Marrow. These were the few pieces he had prepared in case Xiaozhi suddenly needed them. As for the remains of the first-grade Spirit Marrow, he had already let Xiaozhi absorb them.

There was still enough wreckage. Lin Yan threw the wreckage to Old Qin. “This one is enough for you a few times. Tell me quickly!”

“Alright! Big Brother is so generous!”

Old Qin’s tiny jade statue grabbed the wreckage in his hand and hugged it greedily and excitedly. As he sucked, he hurriedly said, “The Turtle Spirit Clan is a race that has lived on the body of the Turtle Spirit Holy Mother for generations!

“The Turtle Spirit Holy Mother is an extremely friendly person to humans.

“Legend has it that she saved a few humans who had fallen into the sea, so she let these humans live on her own body. Then, humans gathered more and more. Generation after generation, they gradually became the Turtle Spirit Clan. They worshiped the Turtle Spirit Holy Mother and treated her as the Holy Mother. Yes, this Holy Mother is not just part of the Turtle Spirit Holy Mother’s name, but they also treated her as the mother of the race.

“But…”

Old Qin sounded puzzled again. “In my memories, the Turtle Spirit Clan has more than a hundred thousand people. There are countless peak experts in the group. Moreover, with the protection of the Turtle Spirit Holy Mother, they’re not even afraid of the Chaotic Fog. How can more than a hundred thousand people be stuffed into this small place?”

Lin Yan said calmly, “The world has changed. There might not be many left out of more than a hundred thousand people…”

“Brother, you’re right. Sigh, i wonder what happened to the Turtle Spirit Holy Mother. They actually became so small. Even the Turtle Spirit Clan, which dominated a region proudly for a period of time, became like this…”

Lin Yan interrupted his sigh. “You’re talking about more than one thing that’s born holy?”

“Of course. Other than the Turtle Spirit Holy Mother, there’s also, there’s also…” Old Qin was stuck again. “This… i don’t remember! I’ll tell you next time!”

As he spoke, he hurriedly hugged the Spirit Marrow fragment tightly in his arms. His body also curled up into a ball, protecting the Spirit Marrow fragment tightly.

Lin Yan: “Then is being born holy the same as a so-called god?”

“A god?”

“It’s the god you mentioned before. 1 remember that you once called the Spirit Marrow Divine Marrow. You said that this is the essence left behind by the gods. If you use it, you will become the slave of the gods. Is this ‘god’ the same as being born holy?”

Old Qin seemed to be stunned for a moment before shouting, “Of course… it’s different! A god is a god!

“As for those who are born holy, although they are stronger than humans and are like the might of the heavens, they are only natural creatures after all. They are existences that humans can understand.

“But gods are different. Gods are unique, supreme, and unimaginable.”

Lin Yan fell silent. He realized that Old Qin did know a lot of things, but sometimes, he didn’t know what he knew.

Lin Yan had to ask questions to dig out the information he knew.

For example, now, Lin Yan originally thought that the being born holy he mentioned was a type of god, and the reason why the Turtle Spirit Holy Mother and the Turtle Spirit Clan had become like this was because of the war between gods.

But now, it sounded like that was not the case at all.

In Old Qin’s description, gods were clearly existences that far exceeded holy-born creatures!

“More than a hundred thousand people live on an island that covers more than ten square kilometers. Such a huge and vast living being is inferior to a god in Old Qin’s description…”

What kind of existence was a god?

Suddenly, Lin Yan jolted and stood up from the corner of the wall.

“Something’s wrong. Someone’s coming for us!”

According to the information sent by the clones, more than twenty bright silver soldiers had gathered on the first floor.. They were swarming up from the staircase and rushing into this room!
