Liu Nan's voice suddenly came from behind.
“This crack looks like it was made by an impact,” He Ao said without turning around, his fingers tracing the dent in the iron gate. “But there are many small dents at the impact point, which doesn’t look like it was made by some powerful creature in one go. It looks more like it was made by some less powerful creature, through repeated impacts, like water dripping on stone.”
"Aren't we going in?"
Liu Nan bent down, her head hovering above He Ao's shoulder, her dark hair hanging down on He Ao's shoulder.
“Let’s not go in yet,” He Ao stood up. “There might be danger in there. Let’s investigate first, and then go in after we have breakfast.”
"it is good,"
Liu Nan straightened up as well, and said with a smile, "I'll listen to you."
Three fiery red suns peeked out from the horizon. He Ao turned around and looked at the girl behind him.
The girl smiled radiantly, and even her disheveled appearance did not diminish her beauty in the slightest.
He Ao turned his gaze away and walked behind the girl.
There was a stream flowing along the edge of the tower, its clear water reflecting Ho's dirty face.
He looked around, preparing to see if there was anything suspicious.
But the surrounding area was a quiet, unchanging wilderness, just like any other place, with nothing special about it.
Just as He Ao was about to look away, he suddenly noticed something white at the bottom of the stream out of the corner of his eye.
He reached his hand into the stream and touched the white thing, which seemed to be part of a bone, with more of it buried in the mud and sand at the bottom.
He Ao carefully parted the mud and sand on both sides of the white object, revealing a long, curved, pointed, horn-like thing.
He then grabbed the corner and pulled it upwards with great force.
The clear stream water was stirred up and turned murky. A huge, bull-like skull, about the width of He Ao's chest and half the size of his body, was lifted up by He Ao.
This skull is as white as jade, and its two curved horns are about half a meter long, making it look very majestic.
This is not the skull of an ordinary animal; it should be the skull of some kind of extraordinary creature similar to a cow.
After thinking for a moment, He Ao broke off the two bull horns from the skull and held them in his hand.
Then he inserted the ox horn into the stream and, with a sudden burst of strength, quickly dug a small pit.
More white bones are revealed.
He Ao changed one by the stream
They dug a path to divert the stream, and then continued digging.
Soon, the skeleton of a headless quadruped animal, more than three meters long, was revealed.
"This is?"
Liu Nan walked to the stream and asked with some confusion.
"It must be some kind of strange beast that died here."
He continued digging, revealing the complete skeleton of the strange beast.
Then he began to mentally construct the shape of the strange beast based on the skeleton.
This should be a bison-like beast that is nearly two meters tall, more than three meters long, and has a robust physique.
He picked up the cow skull again and gestured with it.
This beast's horns are positioned quite far back; if it doesn't lower its head, it could easily use its head to ram into enemies.
He Ao carefully examined the bull skull. The skull on the face was thick and sturdy, indicating that this strange beast must have attacked by ramming people with its head.
However, the skull of this dead beast was covered with fine cracks, and He Ao felt that he could shatter the face of the skull with a little force.
How can we smash the hardest part of this beast to this extent?
He Ao raised his head and looked at the iron gate that had been cracked by the impact. The height of the bull's head was exactly where the iron gate was most deformed.
Then he shook his head, "This one isn't enough."
He lifted the two horns and began digging around the cow bones.
Half an hour later, He Ao stared at the entire pile of white bones beneath his feet and fell into deep thought.
He could have continued digging, but there was no need anymore.
Beneath this vast wasteland in front of the gate, the remains of these strange beasts may be buried.
They rushed forward one after another, forcefully using their own lives to break a crack in this seemingly indestructible gate.
"this?"
Liu Nan stared at all this in astonishment, seemingly unable to comprehend why there were so many skeletons here.
"This is probably the source of that crack."
He Ao shook his head.
"But how could these strange beasts..."
Liu Nan approached He Ao step by step and said in surprise.
"Either there's something inside the tower that attracts them, or their will has been warped by some kind of power. That's right,"
He Ao sighed, turned around, looked at Liu Nan who had his hands behind his back, raised his left hand, and a small milky white tag appeared on his wrist. "Did you bring your life tag? Just in case, if someone impersonates us, we'll use this to identify them."
"Yes, I brought it with me."
Liu Nan raised her right hand, and a milky white sign dangled from her right wrist.
He Ao looked at the number on it
'Research-3001'
He withdrew his gaze and walked towards the tower's gate.
Liu Nan thought he was going to go inside, but instead he started setting up the barbecue grill.
······
"Don't rush, you'll have the energy to explore if you're full."
He Ao smiled and started grilling the meat. "There's nothing a barbecue can't solve."
-
After a hearty meal, He Ao felt the newly condensed energy in his dantian, stretched, and walked towards the crack.
"Let's go."
However, he did not enter the crevice directly, but instead went to the nearby wilderness, caught a rabbit, and threw it in.
The rabbit jumped back and forth in a panic behind the crevice, then leaped to the right into the depths of the crevice without encountering any danger.
After the rabbit had completely disappeared, He Ao turned sideways and entered the tower, with Liu Nan following behind him.
He Ao paused for a moment the instant he entered the tower.
One after another, cold, black cannon muzzles were aimed at the spot where he was standing.
And holding these cannons are rusty robots.
These robots were pressed tightly against the wall behind the door, and when viewed through the gap, they were all in a blind spot, completely out of sight.
He looked down at the ground, which was pitted and uneven, marked by the laser melting.
These traces are quite recent; these robots were functioning normally at least a few years ago.
He Ao carefully walked up to a robot.

Although the robot is still standing, its chest has been completely pierced, as if it was destroyed in an instant by some kind of sturdy weapon.
He Ao looked at several more robots, and they were all in almost the same situation: their chests were pierced in an instant, and they were killed instantly.
It must have been the same enemy who did it.
These wounds are not from a very recent time; they were likely left at the same time as the craters on the ground that were melted by lasers.
He Ao's mind began to recreate the battle scene from that time.
The intruders burst through the cracked door. The robots reacted quickly, firing laser cannons, but they were a step too slow. The intruders dodged the first wave of attacks and destroyed them in a short time with incredible speed.
He Ao took a closer look and found that the robots further back showed more signs of movement, but their movements did not deviate from their original formation. This proved that these robots were destroyed in a very short time, and they didn't even have time to change their formation.
This gives us two pieces of information: the enemy moves very quickly and is armed with a sturdy weapon that can easily pierce alloy armor.
He Ao put himself in the intruder's shoes and considered whether he could successfully fight back if he were in the intruder's position, surrounded by these old robots.
There is a chance, but it is very difficult. Even if successful, it will require a lot of effort and cannot be completed in such a short period of time.
His opponent's combat strength is also much stronger than his; if they were to meet head-on, he would likely be instantly killed.
He Ao rubbed his temples. Although he had expected it, the fact that he actually discovered it still gave him a headache.
"what happened?"
Liu Nan noticed He Ao staring blankly at the robots and asked softly.
“These robots were destroyed not long ago,” Heo said without hiding his analysis. “This intruder is very strong. These robots were destroyed in a very short time. It is very likely that it is still inside the tower. We must be careful. If we encounter it, we may all die here.”
"Ah."
Liu Nan shrank back and nodded slightly.
He Ao then shifted his gaze to the back of the robots, where rows of old mechanical armors leaned against the dark walls behind them.
Inside these mechs are complete skeletons, which appear to have never been damaged, with the marks of time flowing through their mottled bones.
He Ao stepped forward and carefully examined the bones.
There were no holes pierced by sharp weapons on the mechs, only thick layers of dust, which proved that when the intruder entered the tower several years ago, these mechs were already unusable, and the operators inside were probably long dead.
He Ao carefully examined the mottled and decayed marks on the bones, which may have been preserved here for hundreds of years.
