Crazy! Are You Really A Beast Tamer?-Chapter 583 - 287: The Unveiled Secret Script! _3

Chapter 583: Chapter 287: The Unveiled Secret Script! _3

Upon hearing Gu Tianfan’s comment, Gu Anxing felt a tightness in his chest and subconsciously wanted to say something.

But in the end, he swallowed his words, nodding his head heavily.

There must be sacrifices for the future of the Town Rock Family.

If he had done anything to offend Young Master Fang, causing him to have a negative impression of the Town Rock Family…

He would have made the same choice as Gu Tianfan.

After Fang Mu ascended to the second floor, he immediately opened the ancient book and found it to contain page after page of maps.

Due to the fade and weathering of the vellum, many of the ink marks had blurred, making each map look unclear.

These maps were marked with many symbols.

Fang Mu quickly flipped through the book, intending to find specific annotations for these symbols.

Usually, books used as a reference for maps will include annotations for the symbols.

If there were no such annotations, Fang Mu could only determine the specific meaning of the book’s annotations after entering the ancient battlefield and exploring on his own.

Upon reaching the last page, Fang Mu finally found annotations for these symbols.

The evolution of language systems has changed over the epochs.

But no matter how it changes, language systems evolve step by step.

With systematic study, it is possible to understand the meaning expressed by the text from five or six epochs ago.

Fang Mu had put in hard work studying the text from the previous few epochs.

Circles represent relics from the Epoch, triangles represent traps, squares represent…

Indeed, each symbol had a clear meaning, and a circle with an oval inside it represented Spiritual Energy.

Fang Mu remembered that there were seven types of symbols marked in the book, as well as three heart-shaped symbols scattered throughout the pages.

However, there were no annotations in the book explaining what the heart-shaped symbols signified, which piqued Fang Mu’s curiosity.

One of the heart-shaped symbols was very close to the symbol representing Spiritual Energy. Once he enters the ancient battlefield, Fang Mu plans to find out what it signifies.

The heart-shaped symbol should represent something beneficial, right?

Hopefully, the person who drew this map didn’t have a twisted sense of humor!

Shui Miao and Shu Liangjun were also looking at the ancient book behind Fang Mu as he flipped through it.

Shui Miao couldn’t help but exclaim.

“No wonder the Town Rock Family was targeted by so many forces and nearly wiped out. With this book, exploring the ancient battlefield will be much easier.”

“And we can directly search for relics from the Epoch according to the map. We don’t have to rely on luck like the other forces.”

Thinking of what Gu Tianfan had said, Shu Liangjun felt disgust at his words.

Fang Mu had provided the Town Rock family with nine Grandmaster level life potions!

Even if the life elixirs provided by Fang Mu to the Town Rock servant wasn’t obtained by the family themselves, they still had to recognize their debt for the other seven potions.

Yet Gu Tianfan did not mention this at all. A family who does not know gratitude, even without this crisis, would not go far!

“Normally, obtaining ancient books in ancient battlefields is common.”

“All the ancient books collected by the powerful federations and forces now mostly come from exploring ancient battlefields.”

“If the Town Rock Family had remained modest and not flaunted after obtaining the ancient book, they might not have fallen into such a disaster.”

“Instead, they could’ve quietly made a fortune when exploring the ancient battlefield!”

Shui Miao strongly agreed with Shu Liangjun’s words.

“Of course, there’s also a possibility that the Town Rock Family trusted the other two clans and the royal family of the Panfeng Federation too much.”

“They might have shared the secrets of this ancient book with other forces, which then led those forces to set a grand trap.”

Fang Mu did not voice any opinions. After closing the ancient book, he handed it over to Shu Liangjun and Shui Miao.

“Ah Shui, Elder Shu, are you interested in studying this book?”

“If you are, keep it with you!”

On hearing Fang Mu’s question, Shu Liangjun immediately shook his head.

“I’ve already looked through it once. There’s no need for further study.”

“Keep the book safe!”

“Even if you decide to help the Town Rock Family in the future, it won’t be possible to bring them openly into Rock Peak City.”

“It’s best to keep the Town Rock Family hidden within the Mechanism Fortress, otherwise we will become the target of other forces!”

Fang Mu quickly replied.

“Elder Shu, I know what I am doing. No matter how I plan to settle the Town Rock Family, I have no intention of revealing their presence before entering the ancient battlefield.”

Shui Miao pondered for a moment before speaking.

“This book is very old. The paper cannot withstand much handling.”

“We Spirit-smithing Masters are adept at drawing blueprints. Why not leave the book with me? I’ll produce a clear version in three days.”

“Additionally, I will try to replicate another book which has completely different content from this one using the same methods we use for creating spiritual instruments. If news about this leaks out, we can use this duplicate book as a decoy. It will come in handy in unexpected situations!”

Shu Liangjun had always thought of Shui Miao as a gentle and meticulous person, but he never expected that in reality, Shui Miao was a person with a dark heart!

This book had always been in the hands of the Town Rock Family, and it was hard for outsiders to distinguish its authenticity.

If they let one member of the Town Rock Family go out with this book and stir things up, they might manage to deceive a large number of forces!

This sudden realization brightened Shu Liangjun’s eyes.

If they wanted to explore the ancient battlefield according to the real ancient book, they could face many man-made obstacles, or be stalked by others.

If there was a large group of people to share the attention, their exploration of the ancient battlefield would certainly become much smoother!
