The World Online Chapter 973 Lemuria Continen

Chapter 973 - Lemuria Continent

Not long after the Emperor Squadron set sail once more, the news of the Java Squadron ambus.h.i.+ng the Emperor Squadron and failing was spread out to the ASEAN states.

The might and power of the Great Xia Dynasty was revealed to the public.

Uwais's embarra.s.sment turned into anger, and his prestige in ASEAN was affected. Shantha and the others were stunned and felt thankful, 'Fortunately, we did not reject Great Xia's suggestion.'

Amongst all of them, there was one more person who was filled with regret - he was the Zhenla Lord, Bi Wenlie. Due to the pressure placed on him by Ruan Tianque and Suo Langgong, Bi Wenlie gave up on trading with Great Xia.

Looking back on it, it looked like a really stupid decision.

Bi Wenlie tried to contact the Great Xia Xingzhou Prefecture to see if he could still sign the agreement. The response he received caused him to feel a chill run down his spine - Great Xia had officially cut off trading with Zhenla.

"I'm finished!" Bi Wenlie was in despair. 
 ...
Ouyang Shuo did not pay much attention to the chaos in ASEAN. He was leading the Emperor Squadron, riding the waves in the vast Indian Ocean to try and find the legendary Lemuria Continent.

There were no signs in two days.

11th month, 18th day, a white fog suddenly appeared on the ocean surface.

At the start it was as thin as a veil, like smoke. After which, it got thicker and thicker like a cloud with many layers.

Along with the blue ocean surface, if one looked out, one could not tell which part was the sky and which part was the ocean.

When the morning arrived, the visibility was less than 20 meters. With such weather, the squadron did not dare to continue to advance. Many movable lighthouses were lit up, giving off a greenish glow.

Ouyang Shuo thought back to the white fog he faced during the first voyage around the unnamed island.

As they say, 'If unusual things happen, something is definitely up.'

If such a large scale fog appeared on the ocean, there would always be unusual things happening. Ouyang Shuo suddenly thought back to the Lemuria Civilization.

"Are we close to our destination?" Ouyang Shuo's brows furrowed as he decisively gave the order, "Men, try to go toward the center of the fog."

"This..." Gan Ning was put on the spot, "My king, this fog is a little weird. I'm worried..."

Ouyang Shuo waved his hand, "How do you catch a tiger if you do not enter its den?"

"Understood!"

Gan Ning could only grit his teeth and do as he was told.

The moment he left, Gan Ning gave his order, "All troops on alert. We must protect the safety of the king!"

Ouyang Shuo took out the exploration map and stared at the fog in front of him. He was looking forward to an unexpected change.

They proceeded for another hour.

Suddenly, a System Notification spread out in his ear.

"System Notification: Congratulations player Qiyue Wuyi, you are close to the Lemuria civilization, triggering B rank scenario quest - The Lost Lemuria."

Along with the System Notification, one could see a whirlwind suddenly appearing on the calm ocean surface. The white fog acc.u.mulated toward the whirlwind and formed a fog mountain.

As time went on, the mountain became larger and larger, higher and higher.

Once hundreds of square miles of fog disappeared, a huge mountain peak reaching 500 to 600 meters slowly rose up from the ocean surface and stabbed toward the sky.

"This...."

The soldiers were all speechless.

Suddenly, a wind blew across, gently over the fog mountain.

Weirdly, the moment the white fog faced the wind, it was like it had met its nemesis, and it suddenly disappeared.

Once all the fog disappeared, one could see a huge mountain. Looking out, one could see dense trees and many flowers in full bloom. Streams flowed down the mountains, and there were wild deer roaming the area.

This entire place was like a paradise cut off from society.

"A sign from the heavens!"

The soldiers could not help but bow down in wors.h.i.+p. No matter how many things they had seen, they could not imagine how a mountain could appear out of nowhere.

However, Ouyang Shuo could roughly guess what was happening.

After all, since the G.o.d mountain to appear out of nowhere, there was definitely some way to cover it for camouflage purposes. Ouyang Shuo had a key tool to trigger the scenario quest, which was why he could make the mountain appear.

If not, even if a s.h.i.+p travelled beside the mountain, it would not be able to see it.

"My king?"

Gan Ning was also astonished. He ran over to seek Ouyang Shuo's opinion.

Gaia only said that Ouyang Shuo had triggered the quest, but it did not tell him what the next step was.

Ouyang Shuo looked at the towering mountain peak in front of him. His mind was replaying the bits of historical info he read about Lemuria in hopes of finding a clue.

Legends had it that sometime long ago, a diamond shaped continent 3500 kilometers from east to west and 4700 meters from north to south suddenly appeared in the ocean.

This continent had many trees, fertile soil, and it was called Lemuria. 

Lemuria people were small and thin and had little strength. Hence, they were unable to fight against the wild beasts and other races on the land. As a result, they lived underground. Even so, their technology levels were higher than that of the Atlantis people.

"Hiding underground...."

Ouyang Shuo's eyes lit up, as he had understood the key within.

"Gan Ning!"

"Present!"

Ouyang Shuo ordered, "Lead the troops to defend here. Do not wander off."

"Yes my king!"

"Xu Chu!"

"Present!"

As the Personal Guards Captain, apart from at night, Xu Chu would be within three meters of Ouyang Shuo at all times.

Ouyang Shuo instructed, "Bring the Divine Martial Guards and follow me up the mountain." To complete this mission, they needed to climb up the G.o.d mountain.

"Yes my king!"

Xu Chu answered.

Seeing that, Gan Ning did not stop him. With three thousand Divine Martial Guards, Gan Ning could not think of anything that would endanger the king.
 ...
Very quickly, Ouyang Shuo and his group sat on Cima boats and climbed up the G.o.d mountain.

Being in such a situation was an experience.

As the breeze blew across, it brought not only fresh air but also the smell of flowers. It was already deep into autumn, so it was really unusual for the mountains here to be in full bloom.

Looking out, there were flashes of little animals in the forest; there were deer, rabbits, and even Australian kangaroos and koalas.

This made Ouyang Shuo even more certain that the traces of Lemuria Civilisation were within this mountain. He immediately ordered, "Spread out and search. Try to search the caves and other suspicious entrances."

"Yes my king!"

The well trained Divine Martial Guards immediately spread out and swept the mountains.

Ouyang Shuo naturally did not stay put and do nothing. Under the protection of the Personal Guards, he walked deep into the mountains. Along the way, he met deer and other animals that were totally not afraid of strangers.

"It seems like it has been a long time since outsiders came here."
