Meng Chao took a breath of air.
Although the Extraordinary Tower is located on the ancient ruins.
But the real ancient ruins are not in the physical space under the Extraordinary Tower.
Rather, like the Holy Mountain of Turanze, it is in an unpredictable and mysterious alien space.
During the large-scale construction of underground rail transit facilities, Longcheng used shield boring machines many times to drill through the underground space under the Chaofan Tower from the sides and bottom, but no ancient ruins were ever found.
Only from the bottom of the Extraordinary Tower, through a crack in the ground that already existed when the Dragon City was crossed and the world was turned upside down, can one enter the intricate and bottomless ancient ruins.
And deep within this dark, deep, tortuous and mysterious gap, there are countless deeper, more tortuous, darker and more dangerous gaps hidden.
The heritage of ancient civilizations, gifts, blessings, curses, weapons, viruses, wisdom, traps... everything is hidden in these gaps.
Because there are too many, deep, and dense gaps, there are many mechanisms inside, and every step of the way is killing people. There are ancient viruses and mutants eroded by the viruses everywhere. At the end of many gaps, in the bubble-like underground space, even the laws of physics will
distortion.
Every time a new gap is explored, hundreds of explorers often have to pay the price of casualties.
Therefore, even after half a century of exploration, the "safe area" that the people of Longcheng can clearly map and fully grasp is still less than 30% of the total area of ancient ruins.
Just the ancient heritage unearthed from this 30% safe area is enough to support the technological level of Dragon City Civilization and continue its rapid development for decades and hundreds of years.
Since the Dragon City Civilization cannot digest and absorb all the ancient heritage in a short period of time.
The risk factor of continuing to explore increases exponentially.
It was also a period of life-and-death war. Even if you were ready to die and wanted to make a heroic sacrifice, it was more valuable to sacrifice yourself on the front line of competing for living space with the monster civilization.
Therefore, under the dual authorization of the Extraordinary Tower and the Survival Committee, the Ancient Ruins Research Institute has sealed off 70% of the deep dangerous areas a long time ago, and does not allow anyone, even the powerful gods from the nine wealthy families, to continue
Keep exploring.
If Meng Chao remembers correctly, this ban was personally proposed by the "God of War" Lei Zongchao and strictly implemented.
Why would he violate the ban he proposed without warning at such a delicate time point?
Does he want to get something from the deeper and darker alien space?
Meng Chao thought for a while, if "Martial God" Lei Zongchao really broke through the ban and entered the depths of the ancient ruins, then Long Feijun and other disciples of the Martial Arts Temple, as well as the staff of the Ancient ruins research institute, would indeed not dare to follow him rashly.
Search and rescue.
The bottomless ancient ruins cannot be easily conquered simply by relying on large numbers of people and modern technology.
Without complete preparations, even tens of thousands of super soldiers armed to the teeth may be swallowed alive by the treacherous fog deep in the ruins in just a few seconds, and they will be devoured for decades, hundreds or even years after that.
For thousands of years, no one has been seen alive, and no corpse has been seen dead.
"Did Master Lei leave anything behind?"
Meng Chao was puzzled, "Or has he hinted to anyone that he is going to the depths of the ancient ruins to find something?"
"Although Master Lei did not disclose his whereabouts to anyone, he did leave a letter."
Long Feijun's originally resolute face once again showed an extremely confused look, and he said, "This letter is for you...or anyone else."
"What?"
Meng Chao was stunned again.
After thinking about it for a while, I still didn’t understand, “What does ‘leave it to me, or anyone else’ mean?”
"That's what it says on the envelope."
Long Feijun showed Meng Chao the letter they had just found in Lei Zongchao's training room.
On the envelope, a line of words was scrawled crookedly and crookedly like a child:
"Meng Chao, or anyone else."
"This is Master Lei's handwriting."
Long Feijun explained, "Since you left Longcheng, Master Lei's injuries and condition have become worse day by day. For several months, he could only lie in the medical cabin 24 hours a day, receiving genetic medicine.
There were several times when he was communicating normally with us that his mind would suddenly "cut off" and he would forget who we were and where he was, and would even show a panicked expression.
"It's as if what's inside his dilapidated body is not the God of War, but another soul.
"His handwriting has become more and more messy and scrawled. Many times, the writing content is confusing, the words do not convey the meaning, and there is even no logic.
"The doctor conducted a comprehensive brain scan on Master Lei.
"There are indeed large-scale lesions and necrosis deep in his brain.
"It should be the sequelae of the super-strength psychic energy, overload stimulation of brain cells, and repeated severe concussions suffered by the brain in the past few decades.
“The doctor said that the brains of ordinary patients would be brain-dead long ago after suffering such a degree of trauma.
"Even a top-notch expert will turn into a confused idiot if his brain disease reaches this level.
"Master Lei can still maintain the most basic thinking logic and free will within a certain period of time, and has created a miracle of life!"
"So, Master Lei is out of his mind, so he went to the depths of the ancient ruins inexplicably?"
Meng Chao didn't quite believe this too coincidental explanation, "So, what about the content of the letter? Have you opened it and read it?"
"Looked at it."
Because there is something fishy about it, the envelope says "Meng Chao, or anyone else." In addition, Lei Zongchao's mental and intellectual condition during this period is not very optimistic, so the content written down may not be his truth.
Expressing his intention, Long Feijun took matters into his own hands and read the contents of the letter.
However, the text of the letter, like the addressee on the envelope, left Monk Zhanger puzzled.
"Meng Chao, or anyone else, I'm at the deepest part of the ancient ruins.
"If you like, you can come down and find me!
"If you don't want to, that's okay.
"Anyway, it's the same."
Under these lines, there is a coin tucked in the corner of the envelope.
Next to the coin, there is another line of words as childish as a three-year-old child:
"If you are indecisive, why not throw a coin?"
This paragraph of text caused Meng Chao and Long Feijun to fall into a long silence.
"Are you kidding me?"
Meng Chao murmured, "Throw a coin? Literally, toss a coin to decide? Isn't it a hint or a metaphor?"
"If there is no story about coins between you and Master Lei, then it is not a hint or metaphor."
