Chapter 2604 - 2604 The ancient ruins (1)

2604 The ancient ruins (1)

In the process of observation, Tang Zhen found that there were no high-level cultivators in the city Lord’s mansion. There were no cultivators in the building of the fourth battle area, only cultivators from the low-level battle area.

As for the cultivators of the fourth battle area, they were obviously in the ruins, killing monsters to improve their strength.

It was lonely at the top, and the top cultivators in all the major battlefields didn’t dare to relax for even a moment, or they might be surpa.s.sed.

After all, this was a compet.i.tion where the starting point was the same. Anything could happen, and those who were originally unknown might directly soar to the sky.

The top masters of the major battle zones were also likely to be eliminated by accidents or nameless soldiers.

If one wanted to walk to the end, one had to have the mentality of walking on thin ice, as well as enough luck.

After discovering that the cultivators from the 4th battle area were in the remains, Tang Zhen had some ideas in his heart. However, whether or not it could be realized would have to wait until they entered the remains.

After the investigation, Tang Zhen returned to the big-bearded man’s house.

Not long after he entered the house, big beard knocked on the door and brought a wooden box.

Tang Zhen recognized this item. It was a weapon and equipment storage box. Every martial artist had one in their hands.

The box was obviously a new item. It was covered in a thick layer of paint and gave off the smell of fresh wood.

It was said that the materials used for such items were better the older they were, so as to ensure that they would not be deformed due to dryness.

However, because of the outbreak of war, there were too many people ordering weapons, so the shops began to cut corners.

As long as the quality of the weapon was guaranteed, it was not unacceptable for the container to be of poor quality.

“Little brother, take a look. Here are the weapons and equipment that I bought for you from the store. Take a look and see if they fit you!”

As the bearded man spoke, he had already opened the box, revealing the chain mail, longswords, wrist guards, and other equipment inside.

To a martial artist, these were all essential items. Judging by the quality of the equipment, it should not be cheap.

It could be seen from this that the big-bearded man attached great importance to this matter. Even if he had to spend a large amount of money, he would definitely not hesitate.

Tang Zhen expressed his grat.i.tude, but he didn’t wear it on the spot. Instead, he said that it wouldn’t be too late to try it on later.

The big-bearded man didn’t force him. After instructing Tang Zhen to have a good rest, he closed the door and left.

The next morning, the bearded man knocked on the door and saw Tang Zhen, who had already gotten up and was waiting.

“Little brother, let’s eat right away and then head to the remains.”

Tang Zhen nodded. He picked up the battle blade that the big-bearded man had sent over yesterday and headed to the place where they were eating together.

The bearded man’s children were sitting at the table and eating in silence. When they saw Tang Zhen enter, they nodded and greeted him.

Their dressing was similar to Tang Zhen’s. They wore chain armor on the inside and short robes on the outside, appearing very clean and neat.

The purpose of wearing this was to pursue flexibility and convenience. Even if he couldn’t kill the monster, he could still have the opportunity to escape.

After the meal, everyone took their items and walked on the streets. The sky was still dark, making people feel a slight chill.

After walking along the long Street for a short while, the blacksmith who had come yesterday appeared, followed by a masked Woman in Black.

Looking at the woman’s figure, it was Hula’s lover, the daughter of the city Lord.

The woman looked at Tang Zhen. Perhaps it was because she had received Hula’s warning, but she pretended not to know him. However, she sneaked a bow when no one was paying attention.

Tang Zhen smiled and nodded, indicating that there was no need to be overly polite.

After the six of them met up, they did not waste any more time and immediately headed out of the city.

The ruins were some distance away from cleansing wind city, so they had to travel by water. They were now heading to the dock outside the city.

The closer they got to the city gate, the more pedestrians there were on the road. By the time they reached the city gate, it had become a hubbub of voices.

Regardless of whether it was the merchants, residents, cultivators, or Warriors, they were all gathered at the city gate.

After pa.s.sing through the crowd, they walked along the road under the city wall for a distance, and then turned into the nearby forest.

The pedestrians walking on this road were all teams heading to the ruins. Their strength varied, and there were many ordinary people here.

After they went to the ruins, some of the lucky ones would become cultivators, but more than half of the unlucky ones would never return.

But even so, there were still countless people lining up, crying for this kind of “death-seeking” quota.

In the process of advancing, the people who knew each other greeted each other and exchanged their combat experience.

Because they belonged to the same camp, there were no disputes of interests, so they got along very well.

After walking for about two kilometers, the road suddenly opened up in front of them. A large river appeared in front of them, and at the same time, there was a simple but huge dock.

There was a huge wooden raft made of round wood berthed at the dock. Cultivators were lining up to board it, waiting for the s.h.i.+p to set off when it was full.

If one were to carefully observe the front of the raft, they would discover that there were several pitch-black figures that were six to seven meters long lurking under the gentle River.

These black shadows were monsters in the river. After being captured and tamed by Lou Cheng’s cultivators, they were used as a driving force to drag the raft.

There were cultivators in the city responsible for driving the s.h.i.+p, so there was no need to worry about any danger. Otherwise, if the s.h.i.+p capsized, hundreds of people would become the monster’s delicious meal.

Those who often made rafts were used to it, but the newbies looked nervous. It was unknown if they were afraid of the rapid River or the monsters pulling the raft.

Not long after, the raft was filled with people. Lou Cheng took out his bone flute and played a few notes.

The raft began to move slowly, and soon left the dock, moving quickly in the wide river.

we’re going to speed up. Everyone, hold on to the handrail to avoid being thrown into the river.

The experienced cultivators reminded the newbies to avoid unnecessary accidents without the reminder from the Lou Cheng cultivators in charge of the controls.

Everyone grabbed the wooden raft’s horizontal bar, and then they saw the scenery on both sides of the river rapidly retreat. The raft split the river into a white wave, and the rolling waves spread out.

The newbies who were experiencing this mode of transportation for the first time felt dizzy. Many of them closed their eyes and their legs couldn’t help but tremble.

There were also cultivators who were talking loudly. They seemed to enjoy the feeling of riding the wind and Breaking the Waves, and they would let out long howls from time to time.

After traveling at high speed in the river for nearly half an hour, a huge dam full of vicissitudes suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

This dam blocked the river and built nine pa.s.sages, allowing the river to pa.s.s through.

The walls of the dam were covered with strange and mysterious patterns and words. Because of the long pa.s.sage of time, they had long been damaged.

If one looked closely, they would find that there were many holes on the dam for shooting.

All the traces indicated that this was a military building, and definitely not built to block the river.

The newbies were all shocked by this scene. As for the Veterans in the team, they began to talk about the taboos and things to take note of about dams.

“Look at these nine pa.s.sageways. Although they look exactly the same on the outside, in truth, they are completely different on the inside.

Moreover, only one of the nine pa.s.sageways could be used normally, and it would change every once in a while.

If we don’t know which pa.s.sage is safe and enter it rashly, we will die without a burial place!”

Hearing that the pa.s.sageway was so dangerous, the rookies were shocked. A series of questions kept popping up.

For example, why did the ruins suddenly appear, who built it, and what was inside?

After learning that the ruins had a history of several thousand years, the rookies became increasingly shocked. They could not understand how the mechanisms could still operate normally after such a long time.

Many of these questions were mysteries, and only a few people really knew about them. Most people only knew one thing, and that was that the ruins were built by an extinct race thousands of years ago.

On the entire wooden raft, only Tang Zhen knew the true origin of this giant dam. He understood that it was built by the race that made the giant soldier G.o.ds.

In this world, there were only a few people who could decipher the language of the extinct race, and Tang Zhen was one of them.
