"Will the Kyoto University project team begin a salvage excavation of the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor?"
Wei Xin was dumbfounded. Who should he save? Qin Shi Huang, who was lying in a coffin?
"It seems that a tomb raiding group previously entered the Qin Shi Huang Mausoleum and brought out a batch of cultural relics, which then entered the market. This led the alliance to suspect that the mausoleum had been damaged, so they contacted a group of experts to try to salvage the cultural relics," Piper summarized the information.
"Those tomb raiders!" Wei Xin gritted his teeth. As a former archaeology student, he knew about rescue archaeology and protective archaeology. He immediately thought of a terrible thing: "Could it be that everything in Qin Shi Huang's mausoleum has been taken out?"
What's the point of leading a group to rob a tomb then?
"It's not that bad." Zigeld emerged from the polyhedron and jumped onto Wei Xin's head.
"As far as I know, the Qin Shi Huang Mausoleum has at least two levels. Anyone can enter the outermost level, which contains some worthless antiques. At least I think those bottles and jars that are only pretty and have no other meaning are worthless."
"As for studying the lives of ancient humans—well, your ancestors didn't live as well as you did."
"Huh? Zygarde, what are you doing here?" Wei Xin asked, puzzled. He had lent the polyhedron to Cynthia that morning, which meant—
Wei Xin turned his head and saw a dazzling blonde standing behind him.
She was tall and slender, wearing an off-the-shoulder wool sweater and a blue-purple plaid skirt. Her calves, covered in white socks, were clad in black high-heeled shoes with light blue bows. She was carrying a milk tea, and as she raised her hand, her beige coat slipped off, revealing her fair shoulders.
It's often said that clothes make the man and a saddle makes the horse, but this saying should be reversed for Cynthia. She's the kind of person who can make a saddle so good that it keeps selling like hotcakes even after prices go up.
Do students taking elective courses get to see Cynthia's fashion shows every day?
I really don't understand why anyone would be stupid enough to skip Cynthia's class.
Tasteless!
Seeing Wei Xin looking somewhat lost in thought, Cynthia chuckled and said, "I just finished proctoring an exam and saw you guys on the roadside, so I came over to say hello. Are you discussing archaeology?"
"I don't mind," Wei Xin said casually, though he was worried about the students' exam results. However, it wasn't his concern. He continued, "These two are my friends, Pipa and Nemo. I plan to include them in the operation. What do you think?"
Pipa waved naturally: "Long time no see, Miss Cynthia."
"Long time no see," Cynthia said to Wei Xin after greeting Pipa. "You're the one who started this event, so you can make these decisions yourself."
Turning her head to look at the other side, Nemo was slightly lost in thought. It took her a while to realize that the strongest person in the Magic University that Wei Xin mentioned was actually the Sinnoh Champion.
That's really strong.
She exclaimed in surprise, "Miss Cynthia is also at Magic University! Are you here to challenge Wei Xin too?"
"No, I'm not ready to fight Wei Xin yet," Cynthia said mischievously.
"How could the champion be so wary of him?" Nemo felt even more excited for the upcoming match.
Wei Xin broke out in a cold sweat, thinking to himself, "Please don't mess with me!"
Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Zigeld angrily jumped up and down on Wei Xin's head.
"Stop chatting and listen to me!"
"Where was I? Oh right, when Xiang Yu conquered Xianyang, he went in once, but he didn't find anything of value. He was furious and smashed things, but that wasn't enough, so he set it on fire."
"I know," Wei Xin said, having done his homework before going to rob the tomb. "Later, rulers of all dynasties tried to excavate the imperial tombs, but all of them ultimately failed."
"That's right. Ying Zheng wasn't stupid. In fact, apart from failing to resist the temptation of immortality, most of what he did was beneficial to later generations—it just made life difficult for the people of his time. As smart as he was, how could he let others dig up his grave so easily?"
Zigeld gave Qin Shi Huang extremely high praise.
"If my guess is correct, the real treasure is in the innermost layer, which requires a key, namely the Imperial Seal of the State, to enter."
"Is it possible that someone, or some organization, has forged a key?" Piper raised an idea.
It's fake!
Wei Xin and Kigeld both shook their heads.
Wei Xin turned the polyhedron upside down: "Look at the text on it."
Nemo and Pipa came over.
"By the mandate of Heaven, may your life be long and prosperous." Papa read the words aloud, shook his head, and said, "It's impressive, but I don't see anything wrong with it."
"That's right, you didn't notice," Wei Xin said. "I had a sudden idea to grind off these eight characters on the imperial seal, but after scraping with a knife for a long time, there wasn't a single mark left."
"So that's how it is—wait a minute, what did you just say you did?"
Even though he wasn't from Donghuang, Papa knew the value of the Imperial Seal of the State.
"Why did you scrape off the inscription? Isn't this an important historical artifact?"
"So what? Nobody knows anyway. Besides, if I scrape off the inscription, nobody will know it's the Imperial Seal of the State," Wei Xin said nonchalantly.
"Most importantly, the Imperial Seal of the State is a symbol of power and the entire realm. If certain individuals were to find out about it, guess what would happen?"
"Would they steal or rob the Imperial Seal of the State?" Pipa said.
"No." Wei Xin shook his head and proposed an even more dangerous idea.
"They will try to coerce and entice me, using wealth, power, and beautiful women to seduce me. Even if that doesn't work, they might use my name to establish an organization, or even try to establish a country. Maybe one day I'll wake up in the morning and see a group of people running into my room and putting a yellow coat on me."
"Is that possible?" Nemo asked, puzzled.
If Wei Xin, who holds the imperial seal, disagrees, can anyone else force him to go?
"Theoretically, it's possible," Piper said, frowning. "Besides manpower and funding, the most crucial element in establishing an organization is its banner. Even if Wei Xin disagrees or is unaware of it, he could still be pushed to the forefront. Regardless of whether it succeeds in the end, the impact would be significant."
Cynthia chimed in, "I know that Team Plasma in the Unova region was established under an individual's name. Wei Xin's influence is actually quite large now. After the Hoenn incident, he even has a group of fanatical admirers. If the news of the Imperial Seal is released—given time, Wei Xin may even become the biggest figure in the League."
At that time, it's okay if you say you don't eat beef, or even if you make everyone stop eating beef, or even if you eat cows to extinction.
Even if they eventually die, history books will record it as "passing away".
"So," Wei Xin shrugged, thinking to himself, what's so good about being an emperor, besides having a harem, enjoying the wealth of the world, and standing at the pinnacle of power—
Thinking of this, Wei Xin's heart suddenly wavered for a moment, then he clutched his chest and struggled to resist the temptation of power.
"To prevent problems, I planned to remove the inscriptions on the jade seal, but unfortunately, I failed. Given enough time, the inscriptions and wear will naturally heal themselves."
"Because the Imperial Seal of the State was originally made of the He Shi Bi jade, which is made of an extremely rare and special material, and is unique in the world," Zygarde said proudly. "Otherwise, do you really think a small jade disc could be worth fifteen cities?"
"So it's impossible for others to replicate it." Wei Xin even suspected that the materials used to make the Imperial Seal of the State might be similar to those used for the Vajra Jewel, the White Jade Jewel, and the Platinum Jewel (special items related to Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina).
It might even be a lost Arceus tablet.
Why is this BYD Arceus scattering stone slabs everywhere?
"In short, the Kyoto University team will ultimately come up empty-handed," Ziegler asserted. "You just need to be prepared. The environment inside the tomb is so complex that even my cells cannot see through it."
"I'm ready, Wei Xin, hurry up and come!"
Because she couldn't understand the historical topic, Nemo went ahead and stood on the other side of the battlefield, holding a Poké Ball and waving excitedly to Wei Xin, attracting the attention of many passing students and teachers.
Add to that Wei Xin and Shirona's popularity at school.
Before long, the battlefield was completely surrounded.
