Chapter 2356: Brand New Ancient Ruins

"Cough cough."

The winged beauty with a slightly red face sat up from the bed very embarrassedly, and used the pair of snow-white wings behind her to wrap herself up like a badminton, leaving only half of her pretty face exposed. She said awkwardly: "I just woke up not long ago... I didn't hear anything you talked about before Yaya and Jadeka left!"

Largo: "... Doesn't that mean I heard everything?"

"I'm sorry, Captain Largo."

Mo Tan touched the scales on his cheek awkwardly and said with a wry smile: "Actually, I noticed that Ye Ge woke up the first time, but you and Ms. Pei Xi were talking at that time, so... considering that you didn't ask me to avoid you, I didn't interrupt you two just because Ye Ge 'came back'."

Unlike Mo Tan, she did not notice that Ji Xiaoge had regained consciousness, but she did not care that the latter heard the conversation between her and Largo. Pei Xi nodded slightly and said generously, "It's okay, it's just a normal chat."

“I don’t think it’s that common.”

Ji Xiaoge said something very pertinent, then flapped her wings and left the big bed, landing beside Mo Tan and standing still. She bowed to the two of them apologetically and said, "I'm really sorry, something happened over there and made you worry."

He had already told Mo Tan and Ji Xiaoge about his feelings for Pei Xi, and Largo, who was always casual, didn't care about the girl's "eavesdropping" and just grinned and said, "I'm glad you're fine."

"So what happened to you just now?"

Mo Tan, who was somewhat curious about why Ji Xiaoge came online so late, looked at the former and asked casually.

"Take care of three handsome guys."

The girl winked at Mo Tan, then lightly knocked him on the head with her hand, pouting and complaining, "Hey, why aren't you jealous?"

Although he was indeed a little nervous for no reason before the other party's "explanation", Mo Tan guessed the whole story the moment Ji Xiaoge said "three handsome guys" and smiled without saying anything.

"You'll make me look stupid!"

Ji Xiaoge mumbled this, and then explained obediently: "I was planning to be online on time today, but the cats I brought back from my friend's house were a little restless, especially the black and white bastard. I don't know if he was too tired to hold it in or what, but he actually peed here... Uh, sorry, Brother Largo, if you don't understand..."

"I will explain to him about you aliens later, so don't be embarrassed."

Pei Xi smiled at Ji Xiaoge, then turned back to Largo and said with a subtle expression: "Anyway, now that I'm finally sure where your terrible idea came from...just listen to me and give up those unrealistic daydreams."

Largo hesitated for a moment, and did not agree to the other party's request without thinking as he did when he was a child. Instead, he hesitated after a brief silence and said, "But I really think what you said at that time makes sense. If we want to change the living conditions of the Highlanders, we must make changes."

"Just considering this sentence, maybe what I said when I was a child did make some sense."

Peschi pursed her lips and said in a bad tone: "But the idea I proposed at that time now seems completely whimsical, which is what makes me most angry. It would have been fine if you were just a kid back then, but now that you have become the leader of the Destroyer King and have seen so much of the world, it stands to reason that you can't fail to see the problems in my ideas!"

Raguel looked away and said noncommittally, "Maybe."

"Maybe? What does maybe mean?"

Peschi frowned, then suddenly widened her eyes and looked at Largo in surprise, who turned his head to the other side: "You don't think I will correct you the first time you make a mistake like I did when we were kids, right!?"

Looking at Largo's gradually reddening face, Ji Xiaoge, who was more than ten years younger than the two of them, showed a brilliant aunt's smile, while Mo Tan looked at his nose with his eyes, his mouth with his nose, and his heart with his mouth. He insisted on the basic principles of listening more, talking less, asking less, and thinking less, and tried hard to disguise himself as a piece of air weighing more than 100 pounds.

"Let's not talk about whether we can get it or not."

Largo coughed lightly and changed the subject a little stiffly. He said to Peschi seriously, "Even if I do have some doubts about your immature plan as you said, in my estimation, neither the current [Wreck-It Ralph] nor the current 'Loya' has reached the point where they will cause trouble. Even if some people have begun to be vigilant, this vigilance will take a long time to develop before it becomes a real threat."

Pei Xi crossed her arms and said unhappily, "So you're just going to give up and develop the tribe before the threat comes? If I hadn't come back to remind you of this, what would you have done next?"

"What you see is all I can do."

Largo smiled and shrugged, "As for the future of the mercenary group and the tribe, I don't think I have the ability and vision to plan for it."

"You still know that you have no ability and no vision."

Peschi couldn't help but retort to Largo, and continued in her rational and intellectual tone, "Don't tell me that you will give up thinking and come to me for advice when you are completely at your wits' end."

Largo shook his head and said seriously: "Although I have thought about it, if you hadn't come back this time, I wouldn't have gone to look for you."

"Ok?"

Peschi was stunned for a moment, not expecting such an answer, and asked in a daze, "Then what would you do?"

"do nothing."

Largo laughed, looking at the figure that he had not seen for many years but had perfectly adapted to his heart the moment he appeared. He had never been forgotten or ignored for even a moment. He said seriously, "Combining your analysis in childhood with what I have seen in recent years, no matter how fast Loya develops, it will take at least two generations... or more than half a century for some people to officially regard it as a threat."

Peschi, who was very familiar with the current situation of the [King of Destruction] and the Loya tribe, nodded in agreement with Largo's point of view, and then asked: "So?"

“So I definitely won’t live to see that time.”

Largo grinned and said happily, "I am already thirty-seven years old this year. Even if I am luckier, I will probably enter the [Decline Period] in another five or six years. After that, even if I have enough food to sustain my body, I am afraid I will not be able to survive another five or six years. My successor, the next leader of the [Destruction King] mercenary group, will find you after I enter the [Decline Period] and let you guide the way forward."

Upon hearing this, Pei Xi narrowed her eyes and said in a colder tone than before: "Is this your idea?"

"This is my solution, Peschi. You promised me that you would help me. You also said that you were half of Loya's daughter. I have always remembered these words." Largo nodded seriously and said, "My life span is far less than yours, and my brain is far less than yours, but I am a person with great leadership charisma, so I will manage [Wrecker] and Loya well in the coming years, so that more of our people will be willing to focus their attention and even their future on us. And you can use everything I leave behind at will, whether it is to overturn the direction I insist on or to deny the dream I am pursuing. As long as you want to do it, [Wrecker] and Loya will cooperate with you to do it."

Pei Xi bit her teeth lightly, and after a long while she said unhappily: "I am not Loya's daughter. You shouldn't take the nonsense said by a little girl after drinking so seriously."

"It's ok."

Largo still maintained a gentle smile, calmly looking at Peschi's face which was pale and flushed with anger: "Even if you are not Loya's daughter, I don't think you will hurt Loya."

"I think you're sick."

Peixi also looked at Largo's sincere face calmly, then turned to look at Mo Tan and Ji Xiaoge without any warning: "What do you think?"

Mo Tan: “Ah?”

Ji Xiaoge: “Huh?”

"That is to say, in your opinion..."

Peschi took two deep breaths, pointed at Largo and asked seriously, "Is he sick?"

"This one……"

Mo Tan and Ji Xiaoge exchanged a glance, and finally the former coughed lightly and answered sincerely: "It's hard to say. After all, our perspectives may not be very objective, but from the perspective of a friend, I think Captain Largo..."

Largo grinned and interrupted, "Brother Mo, if you don't mind, just call me brother like Sister Ye Ge."

"I think Brother Largo is a very good person, both to his partners and to his fellow tribesmen..."

Having said that, Mo Tan turned his gaze away from Pei Xi's face with a subtle expression, and continued, "Still to friends."

The girl next to him also nodded vigorously like a little pigeon pecking at rice, and said repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes, yes!"

"hey-hey."

The Highlander in question scratched his head cheerfully and said to Pesci with some pride: "Look, people think I'm a good person."

“Being good does not conflict with being stupid, foolish, or having problems.”

Peschi drooped his shoulders somewhat weakly, took off his glasses and wiped them gently with the hem of his robe, and said stiffly: "Let's change the subject. I think instead of accompanying you to perfect those naive plans, your tribe probably needs us to make some more direct, effective and immediate efforts."

Largo scratched his hair in confusion and asked curiously, "What effort?"

"107 days ago, James Crouch, the head of the Archaeologists Association's seventh large outpost in the Savage Highlands, submitted an abnormal report. The specific content was that they detected an ancient ruins two days before the report was sent."

Pei Xi quickly calmed down and put on her glasses again. She emphasized in a calm tone, "A brand new ancient ruins."

"A brand new...ancient ruin?"

Ji Xiaoge tilted her head and thought for a moment, then gently patted Mo Tan with her wings and asked in a low voice, "Isn't this a grammatical error?"

Mo Tan shook his head, thinking that the lady in front of him, who was meticulous most of the time, would not speak nonsense.

Sure enough, just as he began to ponder it carefully, Largo, who had often dealt with the Archaeological Association since he was a child, changed his expression and asked in a deep voice: "Are you serious? A brand new ancient ruins?"

"Yes."

Pei Xi nodded slightly, then turned to explain to Ji Xiaoge: "Miss Yege, you can understand that most ancient ruins are 'known', so strictly speaking, they can only be 'old', but in some cases, there are exceptions. One of them is the ancient ruins that were not discovered in the past due to survey technology and intelligence limitations, and were only recently confirmed to exist by the association or others. They are 'newly discovered', and 'brand new' means..."

"Without updating the survey methods, an 'ancient ruins' suddenly appeared in a known blank area."

Largo took a deep breath and explained to Peshi: "This kind of situation is usually caused by some factors, including but not limited to spatial interference, failure of the shielding barrier, drastic changes in the structure of the ruins, major sealed objects or similar things. The ruins are usually discovered normally, and they are very dangerous."

Considering that Mo Tan and Ji Xiaoge are both new players of this game, and are respectively "a highly experienced freak with three personalities and roles" and "the apprentice of Tianzhu Mountain's chief engineer Ruvi Fizzlebank", they understood the meaning of "new ancient ruins" almost immediately.

  To put it simply, as a world of swords and magic, the Realm of Innocence has too many different kinds of ruins, and compared to the pyramids, imperial tombs and other buildings outside the game, the types of ruins here and the upper limit of their danger are simply ridiculously high!

To give the simplest example, if a powerful wizard who lives in the wilderness dies, his wizard tower will become a "legacy" and turn into a "ruin" after dozens to hundreds of years. If it is larger or older, it is likely to reach the level of "relics" assessed by the Archaeologists Association.

A wizard tower that has been in disrepair for a long time, with only God knowing what's hidden inside and even the magic reservoir unknown whether it has been completely extinguished or not, and whether it might suddenly explode, is absolutely very, very, very dangerous.

In addition, there are many more complex, terrifying and powerful relics. Even those that have little to do with mysticism are not to be trifled with.

After all, in the sinless continent where people are everywhere, the proportion of things that can guarantee that they will not be razed to the ground before becoming relics is roughly - 20% are extremely remote, 20% are extremely dangerous, and 60% are both remote and dangerous.

"And all the 'new ancient ruins', regardless of whether they are remote or not..."

Pei Xi looked at Mo Tan and Ji Xiaoge, who had an unpleasant expression after realizing the seriousness of the situation. Her expression was more serious than ever.

"Ninety-nine percent of the time it's very dangerous!"
