Chapter 505: Chapter 386: Yin Yang Intersection
Zhang Xiaoman, as the leader of the organization, having personally extended an invitation for him to join, had already shown great honor.
Jannan had long harbored the idea of attaching himself to a strong ally and now that the olive branch was extended, how could he have any reason to refuse?
After asking two basic questions, he gladly nodded and accepted the invitation to join the organization.
It wasn’t that he did not want to ask more details, such as about the members, structure, and benefits of the organization.
But Jannan was also aware of his difficult predicament.
For one thing, this oasis was no longer safe, with the appearance of those two monsters already proving as much.
On the other hand, he was currently being hunted by Rees, and if he left this place, he did not know when he might be found by the other party.
Moreover, he believed that there were hardly any organizations in the world that would be willing to take him in at such a juncture.
Thus, Jannan merely asked simply about the name and purpose of the organization before nodding his agreement.
"Jannan, I also know about your situation with Rees. But now that you have joined the Star Alliance, the organization will protect you. You don’t need to worry about Rees anymore," said Zhang Xiaoman, offering a reassurance followed by a preventative warning.
"However, although the Star Alliance will not interfere with your personal grudges, if anything you do violates the guidelines of the Star Alliance, you will still be punished. I hope you don’t lose your sensibility over revenge."
Upon hearing this, Jannan’s face revealed a bitter smile.
"My vendetta has already been avenged. What’s left, I no longer care about."
Zhang Xiaoman nodded, then pinched the golden flower in his hand and asked,
"Have you ever seen this kind of flower before? Especially near this oasis."
After thinking for a moment, Jannan shook his head, "I have lived here for nearly two years, I am fairly familiar with all the areas, but I have never seen this type of flower. Its color is very unique, if I had seen it, I would definitely not forget it."
Zhang Xiaoman, seeing his certainty, couldn’t help feeling somewhat disappointed.
From his experience, these flowers were likely to appear in the vicinity, even possibly right where everyone was currently stationed in this oasis.
After all, the process of searching for sub-branch members had been somewhat similar before.
Now it seemed that finding them might require starting with the legend recorded in that letter.
"Golden flowers, the Sun God, Yin Yang Intersection, immortal... What connections do these clues have?" Zhang Xiaoman muttered under his breath as he slowly walked out from inside the house, scanning the surroundings, his mind pondering the critical elements of those legends.
The others followed him out. Hu Peng and Xun You, having heard his recent remarks, also began to contemplate.
"Do you think there might be a place in Ero where its name is related to the Sun God? Maybe we could investigate from this aspect," Xun You suggested first.
Hu Peng, as an aficionado of relics, also voiced his speculation at that moment.
"Actually, I think we should start from ’Yin Yang Intersection’ and ’Immortal’. According to my understanding, ’Yin Yang Intersection’ might refer to the place where the sun just rises, likely at the far east, nearby here..."
"Then, at some geographical position here, when the sun rises, there appears a clearly divided zone of light and darkness, mostly behind some high convex eroded rock walls. I think ’Yin Yang Intersection’ might just mean this..."
Zhang Xiaoman found his theory quite plausible and was intrigued, thinking silently that this young man might really bring some surprises.
Seeing his boss nod, Hu Peng felt very affirmed and then shared his further conjectures.
"Yin Yang Intersection merely gives a general location and environment, 而the specific place should be deciphered from ’Immortal.’"
"Firstly, the Sun Flower stored underground in a box for decades, remains as fresh as ever, which definitively confirms the flower’s property of not decaying. I can’t say forever, but at least it can last for decades."
Everyone nodded, that made sense.
Hu Peng continued, "However, ’Immortal’ should also have another meaning, I think, it could represent the soul."
"The soul?"
Xun You was taken aback, then suddenly said, "You mean, a mummy?"
"Exactly!"
Hu Peng nodded, "In the legends of Ero, after a person dies, the soul does not dissipate immediately. The Ancient Elero people treated the body with preservatives, ensuring that the body wouldn’t decay easily and also preserving the soul, to keep it from being reaped by the God of Death."
"So, if this flower is indeed the rumored Immortal Divine Flower, it’s very likely related to the mummies. Given that, it’d probably be located near the pyramid. However, considering its connection to the sun, it might very well grow on the top of the pyramid!"
His analysis, though a bit far-fetched, seemed to make sense upon consideration. At least, it provided a bigger hope than searching aimlessly.
"So you’re saying, we just need to look for a pyramid in some area with significant topographical variation to the east?"
Jannan said this, looking towards Zhang Xiaoman.
"It just so happens that you have a flying ship, which can freely travel through the air. If those flowers are indeed on the rooftop, then we can collect them quite easily."
He was quick to adopt his new role, incorporating himself into the Star Alliance in his speech.
