Chapter 202 The Secret of the Town

The morning sun shone through the window into the room, waking up everyone who was sleeping. After we washed up, we went downstairs to the hotel lobby. Li Hao was already waiting for us there. When he saw us, he smiled and greeted us.

"Good morning! How did you sleep last night?" Li Hao asked.

"Not bad." Mo Yu responded, "We are going to go to the library, what about you?"

Li Hao nodded. "That's exactly what I was thinking. I heard that library has a lot of precious books. Maybe we can find something interesting here."

So we walked towards the library together. The streets of the town were filled with a peaceful atmosphere, and people walked leisurely, as if time had slowed down here. However, our hearts were full of anticipation and nervousness, not knowing what we would find in the library.

When we walked into the library, we were greeted by the smell of old books. The hall of the library was spacious and bright, and the shelves were filled with all kinds of books. We began to search for materials related to time travel.

I was flipping through the books carefully in front of a row of bookshelves, and suddenly, a yellowed ancient book caught my attention. I gently opened it and found some contents about mysterious symbols and ancient legends recorded in it.

"Come and see!" I shouted excitedly.

Everyone gathered around, and Su Yao looked carefully at the contents of the ancient book, with a hint of surprise in her eyes.

"The symbols here are somewhat similar to what we saw in the temple. Maybe this is an important clue." Su Yao said.

We continued to delve deeper into the contents of the ancient book and found a legend about a small town. It is said that this town was once the home of a mysterious organization that possessed a powerful force that could travel through time and space. However, later on, this organization suddenly disappeared, leaving behind only some vague legends and mysterious symbols.

"Is it not a coincidence that we came to this town?" Lin Yao said in surprise.

"Maybe this is fate." Wang Yue said thoughtfully, "We found clues about time travel in the temple, and now we have discovered legends about time travel in this small town. It all seems to be connected in some way."

Just as we were immersed in the contents of the ancient book, Li Hao suddenly said, "I seem to have heard of this legend. My family once circulated some stories about this town. It is said that our ancestors had some kind of relationship with that mysterious organization."

We looked at Li Hao in surprise. We didn't expect that he also knew this legend.

"Can you tell us more about this legend?" I asked eagerly.

Li Hao pondered for a moment and said slowly: "Actually, I don't know clearly. I just heard some of it from my elders when I was a child. They said that the mysterious organization once conducted some mysterious experiments in the town, but then a disaster occurred and caused the organization to disappear. As for what happened specifically, I don't know either."

"This is so strange." Mo Yu frowned and said, "This town looks so peaceful, it's hard to imagine it once had such a history."

"Maybe this town hides some secrets that we don't know about." Su Yao said, "We need to investigate further."

So we decided to investigate in the town. We interviewed some local residents and tried to get more information from them. However, most of the residents knew little about the legend or were unwilling to talk about it.

"Why don't they want to mention this legend?" Lin Yao felt confused.

“Maybe they are afraid of something.” Wang Yue said, “This legend may hide some dangerous secrets.”

During the investigation, we found some strange places in the town. Some old buildings seemed to have special uses, but they had been abandoned for a long time. There were also some mysterious symbols carved on the walls, similar to the symbols we saw in ancient books.

"What do these symbols mean?" I looked at the symbols on the wall and fell into deep thought.

Just when we were confused, a mysterious figure appeared behind us.

"You shouldn't be here." A deep voice came.

We were startled and turned around to see a man in a black robe. His face was covered with a shadow, making it difficult to see his features.

"Who are you? Why do you say that?" Mo Yu asked vigilantly.

The man in black robe was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "This town hides many dangerous secrets. The more you know, the more dangerous it will be. I advise you to leave here as soon as possible."

After saying this, the man in black robe turned around and prepared to leave.

"Wait!" I shouted. "We won't give up easily. We have to know the truth."

The man in black robe stopped but did not look back.

"The truth is often cruel." The man in black robe said this and disappeared into the darkness.

We looked at the direction where the black-robed man disappeared, and we were filled with doubts and uneasiness. What secrets did this town hide? What happened to that mysterious organization? Can we solve this mystery? Everything is still unknown...
