As the atmosphere in the meeting room grew increasingly serious, Nicholas's attitude showed a deep respect for Oman's insights. He looked at Oman with a hint of curiosity and approval in his tone, saying, "Mr. Oman, your ideas are indeed intriguing and have given me some fresh perspectives. If possible, could you please elaborate further on your reasoning?"
After speaking, Nicholas turned to the woman beside him, who was the same lady that Oman had noticed earlier with her sharp gaze. Nicholas said to her, "Miss Elisa, could you please take note of Mr. Oman's explanation? I believe his reasoning may help us delve deeper into this issue." Elisa nodded, her gaze showing concentration on Oman's words as she began quickly jotting down notes in her notebook.
At this moment, Oman felt an unprecedented sense of honor and recognition. He did not expect his insights to be affirmed by an academic authority like Nicholas. Other scholars in the meeting room also began to show more interest in Oman. Their gaze focused on Oman, and some even whispered praises for his insight and innovative thinking. Oman cleared his throat, steadied his emotions, and then began to further elaborate on his interpretation of the symbols on the palette, pointing his pen at the two thick and rounded lines on the palette. His voice was full of conviction: "These two lines are extremely unusual. They are not ordinary straight lines, but have smooth heads and tails. This is quite rare in carving techniques, as compared to curved shapes, straight lines and squares are much easier to carve. Therefore, this unique expression must conceal some special meaning."
Oman took a deep breath and continued his analysis: "Combining my previous assumption about the priests performing the ritual, I believe these two lines may symbolize some result or product of the ritual. They may represent the flow of a certain power, or some sacred substance generated in the ritual. Their rounded shape may imply fluidity or some shape-related suggestion, which may be closely related to the essence or purpose of the ritual."
The scholars in the meeting room listened to Oman's explanation, and each fell into deep thought. A hint of contemplation appeared on Nicholas's face, as if he were evaluating Oman's explanation in his mind. As Oman's analysis came to a close, the atmosphere in the meeting room became more focused and serious. His pen finally landed on the chaotic lines, and his tone was filled with confidence and determination: "These seemingly disorderly lines may well symbolize chaos and darkness. Perhaps this is a phenomenon after the ritual, or it could be some ominous force that the ritual attempted to counter." His gaze was profound, as if trying to fathom the mysterious power hidden behind these lines.
Listening to Oman's explanation, Nicholas's eyes sparkled with the unique curiosity of a professional scholar. He slowly nodded in agreement, saying, "Your perspective makes sense, Mr. Oman. These lines are indeed very unusual, and they may be the key to uncovering the truth of history." His gaze turned to the color palette, seemingly contemplating Oman's theory on a deeper level in his mind.
At this time, the other scholars in the meeting room also began to discuss enthusiastically, showing great interest in Oman's insights. One scholar posed a question: "Mr. Oman, do you think these chaotic and dark forces could be related to which myths or legends of ancient Egypt?"
Oman pondered the question for a moment and then replied, "It's hard to determine, but we know that there are many stories in ancient Egyptian mythology about creation and destruction. These lines may have some connection to these myths, perhaps a symbolic expression of the eternal struggle between creation and destruction."
Nicholas nodded after listening, indicating agreement: "This is a very interesting perspective. We should further explore the possible meanings of these symbols." He turned to Elisa and said, " Elisa, please upload these records to everyone's inbox later. I hope everyone has a fresh new idea about this artifact."
Oman felt that his contribution was highly valued, and he was filled with pride and excitement. He bowed to the scholars present again, expressing gratitude and respect, and said, "These are just some of my initial thoughts. I believe that through our collective efforts, we can uncover the secrets behind these mysterious symbols."
The scholars in the meeting room expressed their appreciation and respect for Oman's contributions, leading to a more in-depth and specific discussion. Oman's analysis not only added academic depth to the conference, but also earned him more respect and recognition within the "Guardians of Time Association."
There was a noticeable change in the atmosphere in the meeting room after Oman's speech. Those scholars who had previously shown a cold attitude towards him now expressed their respect and approval. One by one, they patted Oman on the shoulder, expressing their respect for his insights in this simple but profound way.
Nicholas looked at the scene with a satisfied smile on his face. He walked towards Oman and spoke with admiration, "Thank you, Mr. Oman. You have brought us brilliant and groundbreaking insights. I hope everyone can be inspired by your thoughts and contribute more creativity to this research." He then clapped his hands and announced the end of the meeting, "Everyone, that's it for today's meeting. It's getting late, so please rest early."
As Nicholas finished speaking, the scholars in the meeting room began to pack up their notebooks and materials to leave. As everyone started to get up, Nicholas added, "Mr. Oman and Mr. Max, please stay back and talk to me for a moment."
