Chapter 192 The Tower in the Ruins (Added by the Alliance Leader of Eternal Night Dust)

About an hour later, around 9:30, a small platform floating on the sea appeared in He Ao's field of vision, and the three yachts were getting closer and closer.

The platform rose and fell with the waves, while He Ao's gaze was fixed on the distance.

At the edge of the field of vision, there were clearly several ships that resembled warships patrolling.

"Those must be ships from the Western countries."

The commentator pulled out a monocular telescope from somewhere and stretched it out to look into the distance.

The Western Lands are located west of the Central Lands. They are a subcontinent about two-thirds the size of the Central Lands, and dozens of states are scattered across that continent, each with its own territory and king, and they wage war against each other.

If you travel by land from the Middle Kingdom to the West, you have to cross a vast desert region.

When He Ao was very young, he thought that if there was a Central Land and a Western Land in this world, then there must also be a Southern Land, a Northern Land, and an Eastern Land.

But the truth is, there are only Middle-earth and Western Land in this world.

The name "Zhongtu" comes from an ancient saying:

The four directions, up and down, constitute the universe; the past and present, together constitute the cosmos; and the earth is situated within it, hence the name Central Land.

This statement actually reflects the ancients' rudimentary understanding of the universe:

I am the center of the universe.

The name "Western Land" comes from its location west of Central Land.

To the east of Central China lies a vast ocean.

In fact, the Central Plains included all habitable areas within a certain range into its territory.

To the east lies the vast ocean, to the south towering mountains and plateaus, to the north stretches an endless ice field, and to the west lie barren deserts and Gobi.

For the ancients, this was almost the largest territory their productive capacity could occupy; similarly, the Central Plains was the largest country in the world.

In modern times, with the rise of maritime trade, China gradually became aware of the existence of the West.

"Oh, it's not a ship from the Western Kingdoms, it's a ship from the Tia Empire."

The commentator put away his binoculars. "That's true, this place is closer to their territorial waters."

The continent where the Tia Empire is located was discovered after the Age of Exploration began. It is about half the size of the Central Lands and is neither close to the Western Lands nor the Central Lands.

The Tia Empire claimed to be part of the Western Lands, but it was not accepted by the established powers of the Western Lands.

“They’re probably still eyeing our ruins while they’re lurking around,” the commentator chuckled. “But when it comes to things on the high seas, whoever finds it first gets to keep it. We found it first, and we have the bigger fist, so they can’t do anything to us.”

He Ao slowly withdrew his gaze without saying a word.

The yacht quickly approached the platform, and the group boarded small speedboats to begin boarding.

The moment He Ao stepped onto the platform, a faint call echoed in his heart.

This call seemed to be some kind of mechanical signal, intermittent and unable to convey complete information, but He Ao felt a sense of realization rising in his heart, as if some unknown entity was whispering softly in his ear.

A passage is about to open here.

Right in the sky.

He Ao raised his head and looked up at the clear blue sky.

At the same time, everyone looked up at the azure sky.

sky.

A dazzling light obscured He Ao's vision.

"This time we arrived ten minutes early."

Yang De stood on the cruise ship, raised his hand to check his watch, and said, "Luckily we arrived early."

"The opening time of the ruins is not consistent each time."

Liu Zhengyun slowly walked out from behind him and looked at the empty platform.

"I heard your daughter went in too? She awakened? She hasn't reached Rank E yet, has she?"

Yang De lit a cigarette and put it in his mouth.

“She made her own choice. She’s an adult and can decide her own destiny,” Liu Zhengyun said, turning and walking deeper into the yacht.

"If she dies inside, it can only be said that she is unlucky. If she cannot survive in the ruins, she will not be able to survive in this changing world either. This world will only become more and more dangerous."

Seagulls fly across the sky, carrying away the wind's bewilderment.

-

When He Ao's vision slowly returned, he saw a clear blue sky.

In the sky, three shining suns illuminate the earth at the same time.

According to the research institute, these three suns are not stars, but three luminous devices orbiting the dwarf planet Ruins.

He picked up the binoculars and looked at the sky.

I couldn't see anything, except that the sunlight was a bit too bright.

He also sneezed.

I don't know what equipment the research institute used to observe the three suns.

The flowing breath entered his nostrils and condensed into a faint power in his chest.

Almost instinctively, He Ao guided these energies through his body and began his cultivation.

Whether it was because the concentration of extraordinary energy in the ruins was higher, or because He Ao's talent was stronger than Rigit's, he clearly felt that the energy he gained from breathing was higher than the energy he gained in the dungeon world.

He lowered his head and looked around.

A huge tree root pierced through the towering skyscrapers, landing in front of He Ao, inserting itself into the thick concrete ground, and sinking deep into the earth, like a small mountain.

This root appears to be just an aerial root from some huge tree.

He looked down at his feet and saw lush green grass extending out from the cracks in the road, spreading across the entire world.

A gust of wind blew by, stirring up the half-meter-tall grass.

He Ao's gaze followed the direction in which the grass swayed.

Under the bright sunlight, a dilapidated and desolate gray-white city came into his view.

Towering trees stretch across the skyscrapers that reach into the clouds, their verdant greenery contrasting beautifully with the greyish-white buildings.

"Gibberish gibberish..."

A green robot that looked like a trash can and was flashing red slid past He Ao.

It emitted alarm sounds that He Ao couldn't understand, then suddenly crashed into the grass, became entangled with it, and rolled deep into the ruins.

He Ao was actually quite interested in these robots.

Judging from the state of the city's dilapidation, it has been abandoned for at least several hundred years.

During this long period of time, these robots still had energy to support their actions, and He Ao was very curious about the source of their energy.

However, considering that moving these robots might provoke a group attack, He Ao temporarily suppressed his curiosity.

He planned to wait until he left to see if he could catch a lone one and take a look.

While pondering, He Ao, carrying his armor-piercing shell box with the rocket launcher attached, bypassed the air-generating roots and headed deeper into the city.

Since it's an exploration, let's just find a place to look around first.

He Ao quickly walked along the road to the edge of the skyscraper beside him. The brilliant sunlight laid a layer of radiance in front of him, seemingly indicating that there was an open area behind the skyscraper.

He continued forward, and just as he was about to step into the radiance, he saw a faded metal piece in the grass beside him.

This appears to be a road sign that fell here.

He picked up the road sign, then paused for a moment.

Finally, he gently opened his mouth and slowly read the words on the road sign.

Shanglin Middle Street

This is the text from the first area of ​​the dungeon world...

He Ao raised his head and looked ahead.

He had now escaped the building's shadow, and a massive, dark tower piercing the clouds came into view.

He crossed a shallow stream and walked through the desolate steel jungle.

Some dilapidated signs still reveal the once bustling appearance of the ruined city. He Ao could vaguely recognize some of the words, but not all of them.

The phrase 'Shangping Middle Street' on that metal sign was one of the few sentences he could recognize completely.

Of course, it wasn't that he couldn't recognize any of them. For example, in a corner of this city, you could see a small shop sign with simple characters that He Ao recognized.

Adult products.

This is similar to Middle-earth, where such shops are ubiquitous. At Xidu University, where He Ao studies, you can find two or three adult product stores at every gate.

If you look carefully, you can always find it in an unexpected corner.

However, the pink handcuffs sold in shops near Xidu University are of poor quality and can be easily broken. Only the handcuffs sold at the North Gate are of good quality.

He Ao raised his head and looked at the towering, dark tower in the distance.

Something in that tower was drawing him in.
