Chapter 910. Tree Door
Han Sen had better eyesight, and he saw that the person was dead far before Chu Ming did.
The dead person was a man, and he was clad in an outfit of the Alliance. He had been there for some time, it seemed.
Han Sen's best estimate placed the man's death at around sixty years before their find.
What Han Sen could not guess was how the surpasser had died all the way out there. There were no wounds, and there were no visible tears or damage to the outfit.
All that could ultimately be determined was that the man had been dead for quite some time, and now, only the lifeless body and its dusty garb were left to tell his tale. While the man's face had dried up like a husk, it was not rotten.
"This person was a human, one who died a very long time ago, it would appear," Han Sen told Qu Lanxi and Chu Ming.
When the three of them ventured nearer, they were able to get a better look at the person. The clothes were well-preserved and the face was fine.
He was a middle-aged man with a beard, and although they could not be certain, he seemed to have passed away peacefully.
As they examined the man lying against the tree, Han Sen made a more accurate reading of the tree's lifeforce and was surprised to find it stronger than he initially believed it to be. But curiously, he believed there to be something living inside the imposing wood of its composure.
