The Lost City of Alien Beasts

Chapter 837 Waiting patiently
Gao Yang [teleported] into the store.

It was pitch dark inside, Gao Yang snapped his fingers, and a small flame appeared in the sky, like a burning flying insect, slowly leading the way forward.

The firelight illuminated the interior furnishings, and most of the things had been taken away, leaving only a few empty shelves and a small counter. On the counter were stacked several old women's fashion magazines.

Gao Yang didn't stop too much, walked through the store, climbed up the stairs at the back, and soon arrived at the small attic on the third floor.

Gao Yang did not [teleport] through the wall, and used the firelight to check the wooden door of the attic. There was an obvious layer of dust under his feet. It seemed that the door had been opened recently and the dust was shaken off.

Gao Yang opened the door, arched his back, and entered cautiously.

The attic was similar to what Gao Yang had seen in his dream, but there was dust and cobwebs everywhere, and the air was full of stale smell.

Gao Yang extinguished the flames, and the moonlight from the skylight was enough to see clearly inside.

He looked around and soon found a large cardboard box in the corner. The cardboard box was not sealed with tape, and there was no black gold safe inside. There were some romance novels, girl comics, and youth magazines, all of which were dated.

Gao Yang took out the diary one by one, and when he was halfway through it, his eyes focused: he found it, the diary in Liu Qingqing's dream, with a black gold pen inserted in it.

Gao Yang was not in a hurry to pick them up, but separated out a phantom and asked the phantom to pick up the notebook and pen and examine them carefully. After confirming that the two items were not dangerous, he and the phantom merged into one.

However, to be on the safe side, Gao Yang still attached a layer of [Absolute Defense] energy gloves to his hands.

However, when I opened the diary, there was nothing on it.

Gao Yang was disappointed and a little unbelievable. He continued to turn back, but there was still nothing, all blank pages.

Is it a "wordless heavenly book" that can only be read by those who are destined to do so?
Gao Yang thought for a while and came up with a new idea. He took off the pen cover and decided to write something in his diary. In this case, it might trigger something.

Existence is reasonable. Since there is a diary and a pen, the pen must be used for "writing".

Write something?

Gao Yang thought again and again, and solemnly and concisely wrote down five words and a punctuation mark:
——Liu Qingqing is dead.

Gao Yang stared at the pen writing on the diary and waited quietly.

Soon, something magical happened. The words on the white paper began to fade, as if melting in water, and soon disappeared.

——This diary really has a lot of mystery!
As soon as Gao Yang came up with this idea, two black pen words appeared on the diary:

--receive.

Gao Yang became more and more surprised: Who is answering, and what does this answer mean?
A few seconds later, the black pen words disappeared, as if they had never existed. Gao Yang almost thought it was his hallucination.

Gao Yang calmed down, thought calmly for a moment, and then wrote in his diary: Who are you?What's the purpose?Why did Liu Qingqing come to me?

The blue writing disappeared word by word, as if it had been swallowed by the diary, digested and reorganized. After a while, the diary spit out four black words:

—No comment.

Gao Yang frowned, and soon he wrote down another question: What do you want me to do?
Half a minute later, the diary answered again.

--Wait patiently.

This time, the writing did not disappear.Gao Yang ignored the scrawled handwriting and continued to write: I don't understand.

But this time, no matter how he wrote, he could not leave a mark on the diary. The pen seemed to have no "ink" and the diary no longer gave any answers.

Gao Yang stared at the words "Wait patiently" in his diary and remained silent for a long time.

He exhaled softly, put the diary and pen away, and put them into the inner pocket of his coat.

……

48 hours after the collapse of the Millennium Tower, the western part of the country.

The moonlight was cold and silent, and a red off-road vehicle ran quickly in the desert covered with low weeds, leaving behind billowing smoke and dust.

The driver was a young woman, wearing a baggy men's sweatshirt, a hat covering most of her face, and a black mask with expletives written in foreign languages, so her appearance could not be seen clearly.

Slowly, the off-road vehicle began to slow down, drove to the foot of a huge dry rock mountain, and soon disappeared.

There is a hidden cave under the dry rock mountain, just big enough for a car to drive into.

After the car drove into the cave, the woman jumped out of the car, opened the passenger door, and took out two heavy bags of supplies.

In front of the woman, there are seven or eight dark caves that lead deep into the depths. They look complicated and winding, like a natural maze.

In fact, this is indeed a "maze", but it is just a man-made blind trick. No matter which cave you enter, you will get lost and keep going in circles. It is basically impossible to get out using conventional methods.

This is the masterpiece of Meng Yang. Half a month ago, Meng Yang realized the second talent [Maze], serial number 119, auxiliary system.

As the name suggests, gifted people can create mazes in fixed locations. The size and complexity of the maze are determined by the terrain and scene.

The woman carrying supplies in both hands did not enter any cave.

She took a deep breath and held the two bags of supplies in her arms. Strange light blue energy ripples immediately swayed under her feet, and the ground seemed to turn into water.

Immediately afterwards, her feet sank into the "water surface", and slowly, her whole body sank.

She just used the talent [Shuttle]. If the talent only has clothes and a few belongings, it can travel through the ground and walls very quickly.

However, if a gifted person brings other items and people, the shuttle will be very slow. The gifted person must concentrate all his energy to control the transformation of the energy form around him. If there is a slight mistake, those items may be directly integrated with the land and walls, making it difficult to reverse. .

The woman [shuttled] 30 meters underground and "fell" into an underground space.

This was originally a private nuclear shelter, built decades ago, but never used and forgotten after the death of its owner.

Until the Zodiac took a fancy to it and made some simple repairs on it, making it one of the organization's secret strongholds.

The interior is decorated like a modern living room, with bright lights. The cute sheep is sitting on a big soft sofa, holding a remote control in his hand, watching cartoons seriously, and the colorful pictures in his big eyes are flashing.

"Cute lamb."

When the cute sheep heard the sound, he immediately put down the remote control and turned around to take a look.
