"Looks like I should consider finding more mythological sites in the future," Liang En mused, lying in bed after reading the card's contents. At least this time's card acquisitions made the trip worthwhile.
Since the types of cards produced by a place are closely related to the information accumulated there, to obtain those cards with magical powers, one must find those that have been obliterated by history.
Unfortunately, although there are some such things in Liang En's memory, there aren't many. So, besides a few key points in his memory, he might have to rely more on the power of the cards to help him find them.
At least now, some of the cards he has acquired can point out the location of targets through sparse clues, making it difficult but not impossible to find relics in the future.
After using enhancement cards to strengthen himself, Liang En soon closed his eyes and fell asleep. The excuse he gave everyone earlier wasn't just an excuse; he truly needed a good night's rest for the long journey the next day.
With a heap of gains, the next morning, Liang En and his group said goodbye to everyone and returned to Dublin. The day after he returned home, he received an invitation from the Golden Dawn, hoping he could discuss the recent discoveries.
Although Professor Harry, an old member of the Golden Dawn, also went to the excavation site, different people have different perspectives on such matters, and naturally, everyone wanted to hear what Liang En, as a professional, had to say.
So when the weekend came, Liang En drove to Belfast, the capital of Northern Ireland, with a backpack full of documents to attend the gathering.
As an organization with a long history and participants who are not financially challenged, the Golden Dawn couldn't possibly have only one meeting place in London. They had at least five locations in the UK alone that could be used for gatherings at any time.
The meeting place was not in the city but in an estate outside the city. Guided by GPS, Liang En followed a path and soon arrived at an estate surrounded by greenery.
Due to the academic atmosphere of the Golden Dawn, Liang En only had a bite to eat and rested for half an hour before coming to the hall to start discussing the excavation.
Everyone was most concerned about Atlantis and orichalcum, especially the mythological aspects found in the ruins.
Liang En presented a series of photos, such as the runes on the altar and the fragments of religious artifacts and amulets found during the excavation, as well as the reconstructed images from these fragments.
In those days, jewelry was not purely decorative like today's; it often had religious or mystical significance.
For instance, the Golden Dawn members present could determine the religious significance of some pieces of jewelry through these photos and reconstructed images and add them to the Golden Dawn's archives.
As a considerable number of clay tablets with Linear A were unearthed, Liang En could also start his translation project of this script.
Strictly speaking, Liang En's current work was just transportation. He had already mastered the correct translation method of this ancient script, but he hadn't been able to present these translations reasonably due to the lack of sufficient samples before.
Now, the Golden Dawn members expressed their support for his work in this area and said they would fully support him in completing the upcoming translation work if needed.
From any angle, translation work requires a large amount of information as support, and the Golden Dawn members are indeed very good at this.
Although the content about Linear A was still somewhat lacking, after confirming that the ancient city prototype of Atlantis existed, everyone could restore this ancient city through records from surrounding regions.
After all, this city was an economically outward-oriented city with plenty of external communication, so it would naturally leave significant traces in history.
Previously, no one knew that the ancient city called Scilla in archaeology was the prototype of Atlantis, so everyone only learned about the city's existence through information from other cities.
Therefore, before Liang En and his team's excavation, the city was considered one of the less noticeable ancient cities in the eastern Mediterranean, and no one even thought of looking for it.
However, even so, records of the city still appeared sporadically in various civilizations along the eastern Mediterranean, so now the Golden Dawn members tried to summarize these pieces of information to restore some of the city's details.
Besides the information about Atlantis itself, everyone was also concerned about the attackers' situation. According to previous information, these people should have come from the Thule Society.
"This is really a lingering ghost," Liang En felt an urge to complain upon receiving this answer because he had just fought over information with that group not long ago, and now he had run into them again.
"That's not quite the case," President Charles shook his head and said, "The plan on Santorini Island should have been a search plan the Thule Society had prepared for several years, but they didn't expect us to get there first."
The Golden Dawn was very satisfied with Liang En's actions this time. Because their relationship with the Thule Society was exceptionally bad, it wasn't a bad thing to make things difficult for them.
The Golden Dawn even indicated through certain channels that Liang En and his team's actions had their approval, which also provided him with significant protection.
For such organizations, they generally do not use underhanded tactics against individuals from the opposing organization. This is not out of kindness, but because both sides have powerful forces, and a confrontation in this regard would be unbearable for both.
In addition, the Golden Dawn was very concerned about how the Thule Society's core member, Speer, managed to infiltrate the destination, as this was a blind spot for them.
Unlike the Thule Society, which lives in the shadows, the Golden Dawn has always been a public organization, so they don't have long-term infiltration plans.
Therefore, out of caution, they also paid attention to the Thule Society's actions in infiltration and used the obtained information to conduct a check on their surroundings.
Of course, this was not the main point of concern for Liang En. After completing his report and communicating in the subsequent exchange meeting, he quickly started studying the materials prepared for this meeting.
Although this exchange meeting focused on Liang En's report, it did not mean that others were just receiving information without providing any. At least everyone present brought various pieces of information they had recently collected.
However, this information was messy and unorganized, so finding something valuable from it was not as simple as imagined.
But Liang En unexpectedly found something that piqued his interest while flipping through a pile of yellowed documents.
