Terrible news! My deskmate's first chapter is gone!

"Boss, why are you so sure?"

"Just because there's no road ahead?"

Chen Xi has a good temper, so Yang Wei can speak his mind directly about any problems he has.

"Yes, because there's no road."

"But this 'no road' isn't the kind of 'no road' you're thinking of."

Chen Xi paused here, then didn't keep him in suspense any longer:

"Do you remember the Tianshui service area where we refueled along the way?"

Yang Wei nodded and added, "I remember."

"Although I have not traveled all over the country, or even the whole province."

"But I memorized the topography, landforms, and architecture of the Great Xia Kingdom."

Yang Wei nodded, seemingly understanding but not quite:

Is geography really that difficult these days?

"This isn't geography, it's economics!"

"Who in their right family studies economics and has to memorize topography and landforms?"

Yang Wei retorted that although he only had a vocational school diploma, his brain was not yet fully developed.

This is indeed the economy!

At least in Chen Xi's eyes.

Chen Xi initially memorized these things for future investments in real estate and the like.

He has no government background, but that doesn't mean he can't make some predictions about the future of the Great Xia Kingdom. After all, some terrain features are destined for a certain outcome, which can be predicted.

Before entering the extraordinary world, Chen Xi's goal was simply to make a small fortune, play games every day, and occasionally go out for a meal or some fun. That would be enough for him.

Chen Xi didn't lie, nor did she offer any explanation; she simply skipped over the topic.

"Based on the route I memorized before, this location should be a highway, not a cliff!"

Yang Wei believed Chen Xi's words without giving them much thought:

"So, are we going down now?"

Looking at the bottomless cliff, Yang Wei felt a sense of fear.

With his current physical condition, going down there wouldn't be a difficult task. However, the environment of the black fog was different from what Chen Xi remembered.

And the words of dreamers.

The combination of these three elements makes the unknown area below the cliff seem somewhat terrifying.

"That's natural."

"But since it's a path pointed out by a visionary, even if there are dangers, we can handle them."

Chen Xi believed this to be true; otherwise, why would the other party save him?

Chen Xi now possesses three Black Tower Stones, two of which are completely corrupted and one is 79% corrupted. Under these circumstances, if he insists on summoning Li Yaozu, he will have to bear the curse himself.

As for purifying the pollution, this process takes a considerable amount of time; he had Yang Wei try it out while driving before.

After all, Yang Wei's extraordinary ability is passive, and his telekinesis is almost useless. It took him more than ten hours to purify 1% of the pollution.

The speed is terribly slow. If Chen Xi were to make a move, it would be much faster, since he is at Stage II, but that's not possible for now.

Chen Xi's own mental power hasn't recovered yet, so it's impossible for him to purify the pollution.

"Let's go down and see what the world is really like!"

"Received~"

Yang Wei responded weakly, though he himself didn't really want to know about it.

But he was afraid to be up there, just like Chen Xi was when he first chased the long-haired fake man. He couldn't bear the pressure of being alone and chased after him too.

......

In the middle of the cliff, two figures are slowly descending.

Their speed was neither fast nor slow.

The two figures were naturally Chen Xi and Yang Wei.

Although there are no safety ropes or other protective measures, the two of them are now physically strong enough to exceed the limits of ordinary people.

In terms of pure rock climbing, the two are stronger than Alex, the world champion in free solo climbing.

If Yang Wei was like this, Chen Xi was even more so. With his stage advantage and three times the physical strength at night, he could easily stick his fingers into the rock wall.

The two quickly reached the bottom without any accidents.

This put their minds at ease.

"312 meters."

This was the first thing Chen Xi said after landing.

"It's much simpler than I thought."

Yang Wei responded.

Chen Xi nodded. Due to the location and obstructions, there was no light at this spot, and the visibility was extremely low.

If an ordinary person were to come in, they would be no different from a blind person now.

Fortunately, the two were prepared.

Chen Xi took out a long stick tucked behind his back, wrapped with a slightly damp white cloth.

Yang Wei did the same, immediately taking out a lighter and stepping forward, as if to light a cigarette for his older brother.

耸！

Two torches were lit.

The wooden stick was a tree branch that Chen Xi had broken off before getting off the train; the white cloth strip and gasoline were from the car; and the lighter belonged to Yang Wei.

He used to smoke, but not very often.

After going on an adventure with Chen Xi, he experienced a lot and unknowingly quit smoking, but he always carried a lighter with him.

This is a record of my rebellious past.

......

The torches instantly illuminated the surroundings.

The first scene that caught their eye made them jump.

bone!

A huge white bone stood before the two of them like a pillar supporting the sky.

Judging by sight, the exposed portion alone is ten meters long.

"Holy crap, such a huge bone! What kind of creature is that?"

"Are there such large creatures on our planet?"

Yang Wei took a step back and exclaimed in surprise.

"no."

Chen Xi quickly provided an answer.

"According to records, even from the age of dinosaurs to the present, the largest mammal on Earth has always been the blue whale, with the largest reaching a length of 33 meters."

"The only place that hasn't been discovered yet is the deep sea, but due to the pressure there, the animals can't grow too big."

"Therefore, the blue whale is the largest mammal on Earth, that's basically confirmed."

"As for those that haven't been verified, let's not talk about them."

After saying this, Chen Xi stepped forward and touched the bone, a hint of doubt on his face:

"So young..."

"Although I am not a professional archaeologist, I can determine that this creature died within the last few decades."

"Let's go take a look ahead. This bone isn't separate; the ones in front and this one should be connected."

Then, the two of them took torches and began to move around.

But the further I walked, the more frightened I became.

Soon, the two of them completed a loop and returned to their starting point.

"102.7 meters? How can it be so long!"

"And it's not even known if it's complete."

Chen Xi used his footsteps to measure the length of the skeletal creature.

"Boss, is this shaped like a snake?"

"Could it be some kind of seven-colored sky-swallowing python?"

Faced with Yang Wei's question, Chen Xi firmly shook her head:

"No, it's definitely not a snake. I've seen snake bones, and even different species are similar. Their bones aren't this shape."

"So this is not a snake."

"I've truly never seen a bone of this shape before. If I had to describe it overall, it's..."

Chen Xi seemed to have thought of some creature, and his throat tightened:

"Dragon bones!"
