Legend of Elf Vulcan

As the alliance recognized the registered name of "Vulcan Security Group" and borrowed this name to build the "Vulcan Research Institute" inside the volcano in Zhangkou City, the two major project proposals put forward by Mu Yiting are basically a certainty. .

As for Yang Guang, after a long talk with his father, he couldn't help but start thinking about the prospects of the security company and the research institute.

Since the senior bosses of the alliance are vaguely pleased with their destruction of the Shadow Stream Guild this time, they even followed that boy Ating to fool around and created some kind of "Vulcan" name behind his back!Then Yang Guang must not let everyone down!

At the security company, Yang Guang passed the contact information of instructor Ao Deng of the Beiying Army to Ating.Once the company is officially established, Instructor Ao Deng will recommend many outstanding retired officers and soldiers to Ating to help Vulcan Security Group take the first step in the preparation period!

At the research institute, Yang Guang was also ready to recommend Li Shengjie and Lei Zhen there.

Li Shengjie is actually the one among their group of friends who has the most interactions and deepest feelings about the research work related to "ultimate beasts".

As a direct victim of the "joker incident" a few years ago, Li Shengjie had already received death threats from the "bumping clown" at that time!

In addition, Professor Ai was brutally attacked by Leilei Stone and his whereabouts are still unknown. Li Shengjie's research and desire for the ultimate beast is a pain that no one can empathize with!

As for Lei Zhen, he had long been a scientific research talent targeted by the Yang family and his son.

Yang Tian had always hoped that his son could drag Lei Zhen into the military academy for training, and Yang Guang was indeed "brainwashing" the latter for a long time. He even led by example, allowing Lei Zhen to witness with his own eyes the unique way the military academy cultivates talents.

The Vulcan Research Institute is directly affiliated with the Alliance Headquarters. In a sense, it is considered a super-high-level confidential unit.When Lei Zhen graduates from high school and successfully enters the military academy in a few months, the alliance can transfer him to the research institute.

After all, with that kid's physique, he would definitely not be able to successfully graduate from an institution like a military academy where physical examinations are common...

You can only rely on "fields of expertise" and "research contributions" as bonus points.

However, before that, Yang Guang has one more thing that must be completed first.

Visit the Brick Pagoda of Songyue Temple.

……

On January 2025, 1, there was a severe cold in China.

Yang Guang, wearing a winter coat and a thick cotton hat, braved the cold winter snow and walked up Taishi Mountain in He Province.

Along the way, it was windy and snowy, and Yang Guang's steps were also very slow.

The ice blows hit his face, making it numb and numb, as if he was being stimulated by electricity.But he seemed fearless, showing determination with every step he took.

The wind and snow in the mountains are no better than in the city. The higher you climb, the scarcer the vegetation becomes.

There are no tall buildings here to shelter from the wind and rain, and there are no countless green plants to help Yang Guang resist ice crystals.

When Yang Guang sighed with difficulty and stepped up the last step in front of the Songyue Temple Tower, he finally saw the huge plaque with the word "temple" engraved on it!

Taking a deep breath, Yang Guang shook off the snow on his body, and then came to the temple gate with firm eyes!

He was about to reach out and pull the ancient door knocker so that the monks in the temple would open the door for him.But the next moment, Yang Guang was suddenly attracted by the "Pushou" on the door knocker.

At any rate, he had been influenced by his grandma and grandpa at an early age, and he had seen many similar door decorations in many courtyards in Kyoto.

But the shape of the pavement at the gate of Songyue Temple is completely different from anything Yang Guang has seen before!

He blew a breath quickly and swept away the snow on the top of the bunk. What was revealed in front of him were two sculptures of "long-beaked sacred birds"!

According to common sense, the decoration of various temples and home courtyards usually uses the mythical animal "Snail Lion", which has the meaning of "retreat" and "do not disturb the small ones".

But the shape of the pavilion of Songyue Temple is just like the golden phoenix, the mythical beast in Chinese legend!

Even the area around the wooden door where the pavement and door knockers are inlaid are covered with a thin layer of golden iron!

Yang Guang was very curious, wondering what kind of sound it would make if he knocked the metal door knocker on the iron piece!

So he stretched out his right hand, gently held the door knocker, and knocked on the iron plate three times.

"Ding-ding-ding-"

The sweet metallic sound instantly echoed among the quiet mountains!The clear and crisp sound of the knocker and the iron piece was as cheerful and melodious as the song of a bird!

Yang Guang was surprised to feel this mystery, as if this sweet sound was sung by the two golden phoenixes in front of the door!

And just as he was enjoying the wonderful echoes in the valley, a steady sound of stepping on the snow slowly came from the temple.

"squeak……"

"Donor, what's the matter?"

As the door was slowly opened, a poor monk who looked to be in his 30s bowed to Yang Guangqian with his hands clasped together.

Yang Guang quickly returned the gift, and the shocked expression on his face instantly returned to a pious one.

"Hello, I want to go to the temple and pay homage."

Hearing this, a trace of surprise clearly flashed across the monk's face.

In more than ten years since he became a monk, this is the first time he has seen someone climbing up Taishi Mountain to pay homage to the temple and pagoda during the heavy snowfall!

"The donor really has an extremely pious and awe-inspiring heart! He must have some unknown obsession. Come with me!"

Bowing to Yang Guangqian again, the monk led him directly into the backyard.

The environment of Songyue Temple is very good, but in fact, it was extensively renovated after the He Province Alliance built the place into a "scenic spot".

According to legend, during the Northern Wei Dynasty, in order to fight against the snake demon in the pagoda, the monks set off a fire that was enough to burn through the entire temple pagoda!As a result, more than 1000 years have passed, and to this day, the brick pagoda of Songyue Temple is still an empty pagoda without a tower shed and a wooden ladder!

But there is also another mythical story, which is said to be a thunderstorm that scorched this originally solemn and solemn holy tower.In this accident, three Pokémon were eventually killed in the fire.The Phoenix King could not stand by and watch the suffering in the world, so he used his divine power to resurrect them one by one, and finally left the sacred fire here...

Thousands of years have passed, and it has long been impossible to tell whether the two legends are true or false.

At this moment, the real problem before Yang Guang is that in order to prevent the tower from being in disrepair and unable to withstand the trampling of tens of thousands of tourists, the River Province Alliance did not rebuild the stairs and facilities in the tower!

As a result, Yang Guang could only stand blankly in the tower, looking around in confusion.

There are no stairs, no towers, and no effective information!

Not to mention the sacred fire, there isn't even a single piece of wood that can make a fire here!

Is this really the habitat of the Phoenix King?
