Infinite: Starting from Infiltrating Other Spaces

Ancient Shureid script discovered; the Executioner has been detected to have obtained the world's secrets and is currently exploring a hidden area.

[Would you like to spend 100 points to get the translation feature?]

After payment, the obscure and difficult-to-understand text was abruptly transformed into Chinese characters, and the translation was extremely accurate and elegant.

For example, an article that seemed to be about researchers secretly criticizing their superiors appeared in large numbers, using terms such as "dog's," "idiot," "brain-dead," and "absolutely Tang."

Li Xia suspected that the temple was using the subconscious projection technique again.

Skipping over a lot of useless chapters, we finally arrived at a piece of paper with a 'black dragon' emblem.

Li Xia saw something interesting.

1. Monthly pass 2. Recommendation vote

Chapter 97 Monarch-level Creature

The paper is of excellent quality and quite exquisite.

Even after thousands of years, it remains in remarkably good condition.

I don't know what kind of cutting-edge technology it is, but Li Xia guessed that it probably incorporated creature materials unique to Monster Hunter.

At the very top of the paper was a badge, and in the middle was a monster... a black dragon?

Li Xia continued reading:

Top Secret

[Ancient Technology Restoration: Project Dragonstrike]

Shured Ancient Technology Research Institute:

Following the resolution of the Noble Council, we will fully advance the 'Dragon Strike' plan.

The original First, Fourth, and Sixth Research Institutes will be merged into the Ancient Technology Research Institute.

Data from the excavation of the ancient ruins will also be transferred simultaneously.

The dark calamity is about to awaken, and we need equal status to maintain balance.

The rise and fall of the kingdom will be in your hands.

[Resolution 231 of the Seven-Member Council of the Kingdom's Noble Council]

So much information was recorded on that thin piece of paper.

"Your Highness, what does it say?"

The translation function, which cost 100 points, only works for one person; the hall is always unusually stingy in strange ways.

Li Xia gave a brief description of the content.

The observer pinched his chin, frowned, and thought carefully for a moment before slowly saying:

"Dragon Striker... I haven't heard of it, but there are some rumors about the ancient ruins."

She simply grabbed whatever was available as a pen, and the thick layer of dust became her canvas.

First, a simple circle was drawn on the ground.

"This is our era today—"

Another circle was drawn above the first one:

"This is the ancient Kingdom of Shureid, which possesses many technologies that we cannot understand. For example, the current spread bombs, dragon-slaying bombs, and the transformation of the Switch Axe are all derived from the technology of the ancient Kingdom of Shureid."

Furthermore, the guild's strongest weapon, the Dragon Slayer Spear, was also replicated using technology from the Kingdom of Shured.

She held up one finger:

"About 1000 years ago!"

The observer then drew a circle above the Kingdom of Shured:

"However, the students generally believe that there was a mysterious country, or civilization, before the ancient Shured."

This ancient civilization possessed far more advanced technology; sometimes we discover ruins that are completely beyond the scope of our current technological capabilities to analyze!

The observer suddenly became agitated, his eyes widening and his fists clenching:

"Partner...do you think...do you think there might be information here about the Kingdom of Xiuled's restoration of ancient technology? If so..."

This discovery will surely shock everyone! It must be the greatest discovery ever made!

Li Xia opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to tell the observer that the Hunter's Guild was practically digging up Xiu Reid's ancestral grave.

The Dark Night Investigation Team, which belongs to the Dragon Calendar Academy, possesses an unknown amount of advanced technology.

The Hunter's Guild has simply kept it blocked because they were worried about causing serious consequences.

But the research has never stopped.

For example, I've had some access to the equipment myself, and to be honest, it's really powerful.

It can even customize attributes; it's absolutely impossible to say that it didn't have ancient technology.

There are also ancient secret medicines, whose names reveal their origins...

[Executioner, you have arrived at the hidden area: the Ancient Technology Research Institute of the Kingdom of Shured]

[Executioner, you have obtained relevant clues: an order to restore ancient technology]

[Hidden Quest: Unlock the Ultimate Secret of This World]

Mission Objective: Defeat the ultimate weapon of the ancient civilization, the 'Dragon Slayer,' and uncover the truth of the world.

Task Rewards: 3 Time-Space Copper Coins, 5 Attribute Points, ? ? ?

Penalty for mission failure: None

Mission time limit: Before leaving this world

Li Xia's gaze turned serious as he stared at the penalty for failing the mission.

No punishment...

Judging from the usual style of the hall.

There is a very small chance that hidden quests don't have any penalties.

But more likely...

The Hall of Fame felt that if he couldn't win, he would die!

What kind of 'Dragon Striker' is so powerful?

Even if it's a nine-star ancient dragon, even if I can't win, I can definitely run away if I want to.

Could it be... a forbidden existence?

Li Xia frowned. If it really was a forbidden level...

Aowu and Heitan also saw the mission prompt.

Black Charcoal only recently joined this world. Although the Hall has imparted some basic information to him, his understanding of the mission system is not as profound as Awoo's.

"Your Highness, this mission... seems to be extremely difficult."

"Ok!"

Li Xia nodded, took a deep breath, and said in the team channel:

"Regardless, let's test our strength first. They're already at the top of the second tier. If they don't even dare to take on a mission in a second-tier world, they should just run away..."

He smiled and said, "That's how it will be from now on."

"Let's go—as usual, I'll go first, and you all follow behind."

Having said that, the spear appeared in his hand. Without further hesitation, Li Xia walked towards the only passage.

The observer stared blankly at Li Xia's retreating figure. From her perspective, her companion suddenly paused for a moment, then abruptly stood up to continue walking inside.

Should we stop searching?

Maybe there are still clues?

Awoo knew why; the quest clearly stated that defeating the 'Dragon Striker' would reveal the truth.

That means that the temple didn't prepare any useful clues elsewhere. This was the case when they created the world; they couldn't possibly create something out of nothing.

Instead of wasting time, let's strike at the heart of the enemy.

If we win, we'll have everything!

The long corridor was filled with a rotten smell, with only the 'clatter' of footsteps on the ground echoing.

Like a grand hall, a dim light gradually illuminated overhead as we walked.

However, due to the passage of time, some are broken, while others flicker irregularly, sometimes bright and sometimes dim.

It cast a fleeting, dappled shadow on the ground.

On the dusty passageway, two rows of footprints stretched inwards.

One row shows human footprints, and the other row shows cat footprints in a plum blossom pattern.

The atmosphere in the passageway gradually became heavy, even solemn.

The observer cautiously followed behind Li Xia, watching the figure, hundreds of meters away, appear and disappear in the dim light of the passage.

A strange feeling suddenly arose in her heart.

It was as if they were passing through thick fog, traversing time, and arriving at that long-forgotten gap hidden in history.

This feeling unconsciously made the observer's breathing become somewhat rapid.

She had a premonition that every step she took now was leading her to legend!

..............

Li Xia stood at the end of the passage, even though he had already experienced several worlds, seen the majestic Lonely Mountain Castle, and the towering Dragon Ball Tower.

But he was still awestruck by what he saw before him.

What they found was an incredibly vast space hidden thousands of meters underground, as if the entire space had been hollowed out.

The passage I came out of was just one of the countless holes in the walls of the space.

Just standing there, I felt a deep sense of insignificance.

Yet, this enormous space was a complete mess.

The large rock walls appear to have melted and then solidified, as does the ground, which resembles a dried-up riverbed.

Countless strange branches and various human-shaped stone sculptures 'grow' on the ground in various crooked postures.

Li Xia's gaze swept over the stone statues in various poses.

Perhaps it wasn't a stone statue... but a person.

In the very center of this vast space, a colossal creature lay quietly on the undulating ground.

Just looking at it gives you a sense of oppression, similar to seeing a predator at the top of the food chain.

That is the survival instinct that comes from the very nature of life.

A flash of blue light appeared in his right eye:
