Become a god from scratch

Chapter 192: Findles, the secret city!

Looking at his cheap teacher standing there in a daze, Lin Wu didn't pay much attention to him, but looked around at this base that nominally belonged to him.

After all, his cheap teacher also said that as long as he was willing to become his disciple, this base would belong to him.

"As expected of the Old Earth Mechanical Energy Base Camp, any of its bases is much more advanced than any technological civilization that Earth Origin Star has ever seen..."

After looking at it carefully for a while, Lin Wu couldn't help but sigh.

Although he became a disciple purely passively, he traveled thousands of miles to the King's Court of Wanxie just to curry favor with someone.

He actually already knew his future path and didn't need anyone to teach him anything.

But the problem is that the path of a mechanical energy user cannot be separated from resources, and the demand for resources is simply abnormal.

If he stayed on the territory of Diyuan Star, he would not be able to move freely.

That's why he came to the Old Land this time under the pretext of undergoing trials. After saying goodbye to his family temporarily, he rushed directly to the great realm where the Wanxie Royal Court was located.

This was the route he had already thought of.

Although most of the "bridges" on the Earth Origin Star lead to the Taiwu Royal Court, there are also some "bridges" that lead to other areas.

Lin Wu had inquired about the route in advance, and came here directly from a "bridge" on the Earth Source Star that led to the Wanxie King's Court, and then rushed to the [Skynet Giant City] that was closest to him.

As for why he knew the ultimate test of the King's Court of Ten Thousand Machinery, this has to do with his secret.

In short, he did come here this time intending to become a disciple.

It’s just that there is no specific target, I just want to find a big shot who can get resources from the other party.

Judging from the current situation, Gray should meet his requirements.

So he didn't resist very much, even though he was taken away by Hui when no one else was paying attention.

"Teacher, are we far from the Taiwu Palace?"

Lin Wu suddenly asked.

Gray, who was still thinking about whether he had defeated the "Supreme Wisdom" by passing the ultimate test, came to his senses after hearing this:
"Taiwu Wangting? Why are you suddenly asking about that place? It's a troublesome place."

"trouble?"

Lin Wu didn't understand why Hui described Taiwu Royal Court in this way.

"Warriors have always been the most aggressive group in the old land. The Taiwu Royal Court has extremely fierce conflicts with several surrounding royal courts, and these conflicts were basically initiated by them..."

When Hui said this, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes. "If we were to say which royal courts in the Old Land are the most unoffensive, the Taiwu Royal Court would definitely be in the top three. Therefore, only a very few royal courts are willing to deal with them. Since our Wanxie Royal Court is relatively far away from them, we don't have much interaction with them."

When Lin Wu heard this, he couldn't help but feel that he had learned something new.

He really didn't know that the reputation of Taiwu Royal Court in the old land was so... well, unique.

Because the description of Taiwu Royal Court by Diyuanxing is mainly about its power and unfathomable depth, there are not many records about other aspects.

Now it seems that perhaps the predecessors on Diyuan Star may not know so much.

"Disciple, why are you suddenly asking about the Taiwu Royal Court?" Hui couldn't help but ask when he mentioned this.

"Because most of my family members are in Taiwu Royal Court." Lin Wu said casually.

"Disciple, are you from the Taiwu Royal Court?" Hui was shocked.

"Not really. My hometown is an extraterritorial world..." Lin Wu did not hide it from Hui and roughly described the situation of the Earth Origin Star.

With Hui's strength and vision, he naturally knew that the outside world was being incorporated into the old land, and he immediately had an idea of ​​Lin Wu's origins.

"I see." Hui breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "If that's the case, then it's nothing. After I'm done with this, I can accompany you to the Taiwu King's Court... I have a few old friends in the Taiwu King's Court. Although our friendship is not very deep, it's no problem to bring some people out."

"Thank you in advance, teacher!" Lin Wu was moved when he heard that.

Although he was not clear about Hui's specific strength, the fact that Hui was able to kidnap him in front of so many big shots in [Skynet City] was enough to prove that his cheap teacher was indeed very strong.

If I could bring my family to the Wanxie Royal Court, it would definitely be safer than staying on Diyuan Star with the protection of my teacher.

After all, until the Earth Origin Star is completely swept up by the changes in the Old Land and until the world barrier completely fails, this period of time is destined to be the most chaotic period.

Lin Wu is actually a very lazy person. He would never sit if he can lie down, and would never stand if he can sit.

But he still traveled thousands of miles to the Wanxie Royal Court, just to provide more protection for his family in the near future.

Now, we finally see some hope.

"I don't know how my brothers are doing now..." Lin Wu's thoughts drifted away again, and a trace of melancholy appeared in his heart.

******
The Court of Truth.

A girl riding on a golden python, holding a metal compass in her hand, is looking for something.

Suddenly, the metal compass in her hand trembled rapidly!
"Xiaojin, stop!"

After receiving the order, the golden python immediately stopped where it was.

The girl jumped down from the golden python at this time, and after landing on the ground, she stomped her feet lightly, as if she was feeling something.

But she obviously didn't notice anything, as if the sudden movement before was just a coincidence.

But the girl didn't think so. She just waved her hand, and the metal compass in her hand disappeared.

But the girl suddenly started searching on her body, and soon found a light yellow glass bottle with some mysterious liquid in it.

The girl applied the mysterious liquid on her eyelids, and then an incredible scene appeared!
In front of her eyes, a huge sphinx that was several dozen meters tall gradually appeared, lying not far away.

When she saw the Sphinx, the huge Sphinx seemed to sense something and slowly opened its eyes.

"Can you see me?"

The huge Sphinx seemed a little surprised. It didn't expect that such an inconspicuous girl could actually see him.

"Of course!" the girl said proudly.

"What are you holding in your hand..." The huge Sphinx seemed very curious about the girl. After seeing the light yellow glass bottle in her hand, he immediately asked.

"The potion I invented myself can make me see all the real things in front of me, including you, Master Findles—"

The girl seemed to recognize the huge sphinx and called out its name.

"Findles... such a distant name. It's been many years since you called me that... how did you know this name?" The huge sphinx was immediately flooded with memories after hearing the name called out by the girl.

It took a while to come back to his senses.

"Any secret has a price. Lord Findles, you may not be able to afford the answer to this secret—" the girl said with a smile.

"I can't afford it?"

The huge Sphinx could not help but laugh. It never expected that it would be looked down upon by a tiny primitive man.

"Little girl, do you know how many treasures and secrets I have here?" The huge Sphinx couldn't help but ask mockingly, "Since you don't believe it, let's have a 'truth arbitration'. If I really can't afford the price, I can agree to one of your requests."

"Really?" The girl was a little excited when she heard it.

"Of course it's true. I never go back on my words." The huge sphinx said calmly, "But if you lose, you have to stay here with me for a hundred years. How about that?"

"it is good!"

The girl agreed without thinking.

The huge Sphinx was a little surprised to see that the girl actually agreed, but it did not terminate the appointment.

Soon, a huge shadow of a scale appeared in front of the two of them, and the girl seemed to pull out a cloud-like white ball from her temple and threw it directly to the left side of the huge scale.

As the mini white ball of mist fell on the left side of the huge scale, the entire scale immediately tilted towards the direction of the girl.

The huge Sphinx didn't find it strange to see this, because he hadn't put down any chips yet.

Soon, it also took out some white mist spherical memories from both sides of its temples like the girl, and threw them onto the scale as well.

However, the next moment his expression suddenly changed!

Because the huge phantom of the scale did not change at all due to the white mist spherical memory it added.

In other words, the secret it revealed was not as valuable as the girl's secret, so the huge shadow of the scale in the sky did not return to balance, nor did it tilt towards it!

"How can this be……"

The huge Sphinx obviously did not expect such a situation to happen. It did not believe in evil and added a few more secrets to its side of the scale, but the scale remained motionless.

It's like there is an iron ball on the opposite side of the scale, and there are some cotton balls on this side, they are not on the same level at all.

At this moment, the huge Sphinx realized that it had indeed underestimated the girl in front of it.

But its pride would not allow it to admit defeat. Since the secrets it knew were not as valuable as the girl's secret, it would use treasures to fill the gap!

So, it opened its mouth directly towards its side of the scale and blew out dozens of treasures in one breath!
These dozens of treasures were piled up neatly on one side of the scale, but the result was that the scale remained unchanged!
"This is impossible!"

This time, the huge Sphinx was really broken.

The moment before, it was bragging to the girl about how many secrets and treasures it held in its hands, but the next moment, it was slapped in the face.

All of its precious secrets and most of its most valuable treasures are not as important as the one secret known by the girl in front of him.

This really made the giant Sphinx a little collapsed.

"So, did I win?"

The girl asked, looking at the huge sphinx with a smile.

"Ah."

The giant sphinx seemed to have lost its soul at this moment, and looked extremely depressed. "Tell me, what do you want——"

"I want to enter the Secret City!" the girl said seriously.

Wow!

Following the girl's words, the huge Sphinx suddenly shook all over, and then a strong wind blew around it!

It just stared at the girl and said, "Who are you?"

The girl was unmoved and just smiled and said, "My name is Lin Long."

The giant sphinx still stared at her: "You should understand that this is not what I'm asking... How do you know about the Secret City?"

"That's none of your business. You just need to let me enter the Secret City." The girl shrugged and said, "Or is it that the great Findles is actually going to cheat and refuse to admit his defeat?"

"Humph, I'll keep my word!"

The giant sphinx snorted coldly and said, "Although I don't know where you learned about the Secret City and how you found me... I still have to remind you that the Secret City is not as simple as you think. It is not difficult to enter, but it is not so easy to get out. Are you sure you want to go in?"

"Sure!" the girl said without hesitation.

"it is good."

The huge sphinx nodded, then suddenly opened its mouth and took a deep breath in the direction of the girl and the golden python!

In an instant, a strong wind blew around the girl and the golden python, and they were directly blown into the mouth of the huge sphinx!
"what!!"

The girl didn't seem to expect that the way to enter the secret city would be so simple and plain.

Before she could finish her words, she was completely swallowed by the huge Sphinx and disappeared without a trace.

The giant sphinx had now returned to its original expressionless look and couldn't help but mutter:

"What kind of secret is this? Even the secrets I know cannot compare to it... Could it be related to a certain domain king?"

"And this Secret City has not been opened for such a long time. I didn't expect that someone still remembers it..."

The huge Sphinx thought carefully for a moment, but found that he had no clue, and finally shook his head and stopped thinking about it.

Its brain is actually not very useful, because it is not a real living creature, but just a guardian placed here.

As for the [Secret City], it does have a wide range of implications, but it has nothing to do with it.

Although it has a passage connecting to the [Secret City] in its mouth, it itself has no obligation to protect the [Secret City]. Even if there was no previous bet, it would still let the girl enter the [Secret City].

It's just that it hasn't talked to anyone for so many years, and now it finally has someone to communicate with, so it couldn't help but make a bet with the other party.

But this bet almost made him become autistic.

It really couldn't understand why it, as one of the seven guardians of the Royal Court of Truth, lost the bet to a little primitive girl?
