Chapter 891 Castration of ruins, the price of excavation!(1/2)
Regarding these ruins buried underground, there will not be much research done by humans in the next nine years.
On the one hand, it is because of time constraints.
Frequent disasters, wars between alien races, and the development of people's livelihood in the territory have taken up too much of the researchers' attention, leaving them with no time to devote any more.
On the other hand, because the excavated ruins are also somewhat unclear, there is basically no pattern to be found.
There are no clues to find the next ruins inside, and there is no further transmission of information. Even the ruins of the same civilization are like isolated islands.
Sumo once speculated that this was due to the game emasculating some things and not completely replicating the main world.
Now it seems that this guess is indeed correct!
The humans in the wasteland searched for the alien ruins of Old Man Pepys for nine years but could not find them.
The only place I found was a dead man's nest, which contained the divinity that made people like Yu Tie become gods.
And those ruins that can be excavated in the future world cannot be found point to point in reality.
I'm afraid I didn't think so much about it when I copied the game, and just made up some of them myself and put them in.
"What will be the consequences if I open the ruins of a foreign race?"
His eyes signaled Pei Shao and others to put the guy on the counter in place, but Su Mo still asked without giving up.
"Consequences?" Old Man Pepys chuckled strangely and replied: "That's a strange question you asked. Wouldn't the consequence be that you released a group of demons? Then they will first kill those of you who opened the door in return.
Later"
"What happened next?" Sumo asked seriously.
"Young human, your problem for today is over." The old man raised his hook and knocked on the counter.
It can be seen that Pepys is still in a very good mood now, and it is obvious that the Nengshi just made him very satisfied.
"I still have the stone from just now, if you can answer more questions for me."
"No need, just a little bit is enough for me to study." The old man raised his head, and his yellow eyes fell silent again.
Seeing this, Sumo had no choice but to turn around and lead people out of the only alchemy workshop open to the public.
After the exchange just now, he now even suspected that the game could not help but castrate the ruins in the future timeline, and even castrated many of these alien races.
None of the information collected before about Old Pepys said that he actually knew these secrets.
But unfortunately, Tianyuan Territory is now far from being a match for the Bright Empire, and is not even qualified to become an enemy.
Turning around and looking at the dark corridor behind him, Somo thought thoughtfully and strode back to the street.
"It seems that the game doesn't want anyone to rely on the information in the future ruins to return to reality and directly destroy the progress of the game. I thought it was a bug that he allowed me to bring all the memories back, but now it seems there are more pitfalls that I don't know about.
Being involved in this, I have to be more careful."
He calmed down in his mind.
"This old man should know more, and he likes weird metals and special metal structures. As long as you have preferences, you will have weaknesses. Sooner or later, you will be able to get more good things out of his mouth."
Thinking of this, Somo stopped staying and started leading people back to the outside of the city.
In addition to the old man's shop in Patirojo, which is open to the public, you can buy the "specialties" of the Bright Empire.
The rest of the places you can visit are all entertainment venues, which is a waste of time.
What's more, given the current situation in the wasteland, there is no more enjoyable recreational activity than farming.
Most of these alien humans still staying in the city have unspeakable purposes.
More than ten minutes later.
"Director, someone seems to be watching us from behind." Just a few steps out of the city gate, Pei Shao glanced behind him, stepped forward slightly and lowered his voice.
"Really?" Su Mo turned around and glanced, and couldn't help but chuckle: "Maybe they came out to exercise in the cold weather. This is not our family. If they want to follow, just follow."
"Okay." Pei Shao felt a little strange in his heart. When others were being followed, the first thing they thought about was probably how to arrest them and interrogate them.
But then he thought about it again and felt that his boss was really kind. There were really fewer and fewer people in the wasteland like him who would think the best of others.
At this time, the team put on their sleds and started moving forward in the direction of the ruins again.
On the horizon of the wasteland, the dim morning sun has slowly begun to rise, casting a faint light.
Compared with when the sun just emerged a few days ago, the light now finally has a touch of warmth.
After gliding for more than 30 kilometers, everyone was out of breath due to heat.
Turning around, I saw that the team of more than thirty people who had followed me was still hanging on not far away, looking as if they were far away.
"This group of people are so brave. We have discovered it and you are still not going to get out of the way?" Pei Shao became a little angry and moved his hands to his waist involuntarily, as if he wanted to take out something.
But just as he held down something, he saw a three-meter-tall mechanical monster coming out of nowhere behind the team.
His whole body was radiating with a dangerous black shining light, and bursts of white air spurted out from all parts of his body. He was throwing the pursuers off the ground one by one like chopping melons and vegetables, and fell heavily into the snow.
Crackling.
These people obviously had guns in their hands, but the poor small-caliber guns could not penetrate the monster's defense. After the collision, they could only fall to the ground weakly, igniting a small burst of gunpowder smoke.
Not even a minute passed before and after, as the last tracker lay on the ground wailing.
Only then did the adventure team react and quickly turned around and slid behind them.
"Director, didn't you say they want to follow?"
Seeing the helmet open, Pei Shao was stunned and didn't react.
"It's okay. I think they are a little tired. This won't help them lie down and rest." Somo smiled softly, twisted the Ring of Creation and stepped out of the armor.
When he goes out, the body he uses is still only his second body, so he doesn't worry about exposing his identity in front of these people.
He grabbed the man who clearly looked like the leader during the march.
The two came to the side.
"Now I ask questions and you answer them. If I am satisfied, you can take people away."
"Boss, boss, tell me, I will definitely satisfy you." The man whose neck was grabbed by Sumo had a typical Western face, with a large piece of colorful tattoo on his face, and he looked like he was arrogant.
But at this time, he was like a docile chicken, with a well-behaved expression on his face.
"identity."
"I am Beerbom Isaac, the captain of the fourth team of the Newquat Chamber of Commerce. The people I am leading are all members of the team."
"Purpose."
"Some team members suspected that you were going to excavate the ruins and mobilize troops, so we followed to see if we could drink some soup."
"Interesting." The other party's frankness was surprising. After directly stating the purpose, Sumo changed his mind.
Since you have opened a lot of ruins, there is a chance that you can open the ruins of a foreign race and release the monsters inside.
So what will be the result if every time it is opened there will be a group of people who have never opened it before?
With this thought in mind, Sumo's eyes couldn't help but light up when he looked at the thirty or so people in the field.
"Have you ever driven in a ruin?"
"Sir, I have participated in the opening of two ruins in total. If you are worried that the ruins are in danger, we can rush ahead."
"Very well, go gather your people and follow us. I really need someone who has driven through the ruins."
Instruct Isaac to regroup the team.
Surrounded by nearly a hundred people, these thirty or so people were all bachelors, and they all behaved extremely well-behaved.
Sumo roughly knew the purpose of these people, but he didn't know anything about it.
The team set out on the road again, this time until it was almost dark, and everyone finally arrived at their destination.
This is still a world still wrapped in ice and snow, with endless layers of thick snow everywhere.
The expedition team sent out earlier set up a temporary camp directly above the detected ruins.
Hearing a noise in the distance, Qi Qin had already walked out of the camp, still holding unfinished noodles in his hand.
"Director, you are here, who are these people?"
"These people came to help on their own initiative." Pei Shao on the side took over the conversation first.
Although the people surrounded in the middle all had bruises and swollen faces, and they all had different tattoos on their faces, they didn't look like good people.
But as soon as the words were spoken, the group of people nodded quickly, fearing that they would be too slow to admit.
Qi Qinruo realized something and squeezed out a smile.
"How's the digging going?"
Sumo glanced back and forth, only to hear a faint sound of digging equipment being started, but he didn't see exactly where he was digging.
"We have already touched the outer wall of the ruins!"
Qi Qin quickly turned around and opened the curtain of the tent behind him, revealing a hole in the ground about sixty centimeters in diameter.
At this time, the chain is constantly rotating up and down, fixing the surrounding snow on both sides to prevent collapse.
