A single light source will not play any role in this dark bottom of the water, but if millions of similar light sources are spread all over the lake, the entire dark bottom of the lake will be illuminated like the ground during the day.
In addition to the extra light source of the crystalline stone core, a large number of underwater creatures are also inhabited in this crystalline stone. No matter what they looked like before and what species they were, these creatures have now crystallized without exception and look extremely beautiful.
Due to the influence of crystalline stones, Leo's spiritual network cannot penetrate under the crystalline stones, so it is naturally not clear about the specific situation at the bottom of the lake. However, it is not difficult to judge from the surrounding terrain that Lake Narnia should be transformed from a huge pit formed after the impact of meteorites, and the meteorites that cause all this may be the source of crystallization, which may come from the throne of stone.
Thinking of this, Leo couldn't wait to dig a cave leading to the center of the lake from this crystal stone. However, when he took action, an abnormal wave came from afar. This powerful wave did not cause much trouble to Leo, but it caused the crystal fish or other crystal creatures wandering under the water to be rolled up and fell around in scatter. In addition, the dust at the bottom of the lake was rolled up together, making the originally clear lake water immediately become turbid.
Leo felt that the water wave was coming strangely. In order to avoid being disturbed by something unexpected when he was digging, he swam towards the source of the water wave, and it seemed that he planned to solve the matter on the water wave first.
He swam for about ten minutes, and the dust at the bottom of the lake gradually sank, and the lake water became a little clearer. Then he saw a large number of moving light spots appearing densely at the bottom of the lake in the distance. When he looked at the light spots seriously, he found that the light spots were all people wearing diving equipment.
The diving devices worn by these people were very different, and they looked like iron cans. Behind each iron can, there was a vent pipe tied to the traction rope connected to it, leading straight to the water surface.
Judging from the appearance of the diving device, these diving devices must be very heavy. It is precisely because of these heavy devices that they can firmly nail their bodies to the bottom of the lake without letting themselves float back and forth with the undercurrent at the bottom of the lake.
These people wearing diving devices did not carry any mining equipment. Obviously, they were not coming to the crystal stones at the bottom of the lake. After they stabilized their bodies, they took out a bag and stuffed the mutant creatures such as crystal fish floating in the water into the bag. When the bag was full, they would hang it on a rope tied with heavy iron objects beside them, pull the live rope next to the rope, and signal the people on the water to take back the bag. Not long after, an empty bag was sent down again, and it continued again. Only when all the floating crystal creatures beside them were caught will they be transferred to the next place to continue fishing.
Leo did not approach these people, but observed the behavior of these people a little farther away, and then looked at the water through his spiritual vision ability. Soon he saw more than a dozen ships docked on the water. Those ships had unified marks, and among the people working on the ship, there were also some people dressed by clergymen.
After a quick search of the church badges in my memory, Leo quickly found the origin of the marks on the ship, which were the unique badges belonging to the Light Chasing Church.
The Light Chasing Church is also one of the True God Churches, but this church is not ancient, with a history of religion only over two hundred years. Such a short history of religion is definitely one of the last among the many True God Churches.
Although the history of the Light Chasing Church is very short, its church development is as smooth as it has been blessed by the gods. It took only less than twenty years from the establishment of the church to the acceptance of the True God Church to the acceptance of it as a member, which is absolutely unique among the various religions that have joined the True God Church.
It is precisely because of this that many religious history researchers are extremely curious about the development history of the Light Chasing Church and set up various subjects to study it. They have collected many relevant research materials from religious scholars in the academic city. Therefore, Leo's understanding of the Light Chasing Church may even be above the senior clergy of the church.
In Leo's view, the reason why the Light Chasing Church is so easily accepted by the True God Church and becomes a collaborator of many churches is mainly because of the idea founded by the Light Chasing Church, which is summarized as evolution.
The founders of the Light Chasing Church believe that any believer of gods should not passively accept the blessings of gods, but should be more proactive in approaching gods, catching up with gods, and finally standing by the gods. To achieve this goal, one must make his life form closer to gods, and there is only one way to achieve this goal, that is evolution.
The Light Chasing Church is one of the most mysterious churches among all True God churches. This church has no temples, temples and other strongholds for missionary purposes. Their missionary is more about finding suitable believers, actively spreading doctrine to believers, and then recruiting believers to become clergy in the church. In other words, this church has no believers, all clergy and researchers. In the academic city, some scholars are members of the Light Chasing Church.
The entire Light Chasing Church is a large-scale research institute for the evolution of life. No one in the outside world knows what they have developed, but what is certain is that several True God churches that they cooperate with, such as the Justice Church. In the past hundred years, the number of senior clergy and paladins within the internal area has been growing rapidly, and the shadow of the Light Chasing Church can be vaguely seen.
For this reason, Leo also included the Light Chasing Church on one of the list of churches he needed to visit, but what he didn't expect was that he had encountered the Light Chasing Church before he could take the initiative.
When he determined that the people who captured these crystallized creatures came from the Light Chasing Church, Leo quickly had a guess on why the Light Chasing Church captured these crystallized creatures.
"Make the extraordinary potion needed for evolution." A sentence came to Leo's mind.
It is not a secret that the Light Chasing Church can produce potions containing extraordinary powers like wizard potions. In fact, when Leo was in the City of Academics, he received a bottle of extraordinary potions from a biologist with the clergy of the Light Chasing Church. The effect of this bottle of potions is very simple. It is to stimulate the living body of the human body in a short period of time and promote the body to quickly heal the wounds and eliminate toxins in the body quickly as they metabolize.
I have to say that the bottle of potion has a good effect. Although it is not as good as the effect of the wizard healing potion, it is too much more effective than the effect of ordinary healing potions. However, this potion has a great flaw, that is, when the potion exerts its effect, it will greatly consume the energy of the taker. Once the energy cannot keep up, the effect of the medicine will be greatly reduced. Unlike Leo's wizard healing potion, the potion exerts the effect of the potion consumes the ability contained in the potion itself and will not cause any burden or harm to the taker.
It was precisely this extraordinary potion that aroused Leo's curiosity about the Light Chasing Church that made him include this young church on the list of visits.
Leo had no intention of contacting the Light Chasing Church at this moment. He just left a mark on several people who were fishing for crystallized creatures and turned around and left.
After that, he spent dozens of minutes swimming to a place far away from the fishing ground of the Chasing Church, then took out the tools and began to cut the crystal stones at the bottom of the lake.
Although these crystal stones are very hard, compared to Leo's ability and tools, this hardness will not cause him any trouble. The crystal stones blocking him were cut into pieces like some kind of soft cake, and then flowed out of the digging crystal holes with the water created by Leo, and then scattered in different places.
The excavation direction formulated by Leo did not go straight down, but tilted downward. As for the direction, it was the position where he felt that it might be the center of the bottom of the lake.
"The Sword"
After more than an hour of excavation, the crystal stone at the bottom of the lake was finally dug through by Leo.
I saw that the bottom of the lake was not filled with crystal stones as he had guessed in advance, but a huge hole. In the hole, not only did there be no crystallized creatures, but even crystal stones. There were no aquatic plants on the ground at the bottom of the lake. It was precisely because of this that the traces left after the impact were preserved intact, allowing Leo to confirm that the meteorite impact theory he had made before was correct.
Leo did not stop for a long time and swam directly towards the center of the hollow at the bottom of the lake. Soon he saw the source that caused Lake Narnia to appear and crystallize. However, after seeing this source, he felt a little disappointed because the source was too ordinary, just a piece of gravel.
However, Leo was not disappointed for too long. As he approached this ordinary, about half a human-high gravel, he felt that the resonance of his Stone Throne was getting stronger and stronger. He hardly needed to re-invest consciousness into the spiritual core, and he could still judge that the Stone Throne should have completely become real at this moment.
According to common sense, with Leo's personality, under the current circumstances, he will suppress all kinds of emotions in his heart, and then calmly and cautiously check whether this stone poses a life threat to him, and will not try to contact him until he has been fully confirmed to be safe.
