Chapter 612: The Navigator (please vote for the super large chapter)
"Is this a ruins?"
Behind He Ao, a hesitant voice came.
He Ao turned around and looked behind him.
It was a young woman with a single ponytail, wearing a simple orange T-shirt, jeans, and a thin orange jacket. She looked to be in her mid-twenties.
He Ao remembered this woman. She was one of the D-class people who came to the institute this time. She was mainly responsible for the research of ruins in Beidu. He Ao also saw several of her papers on the official website of the institute.
, are all the kind that contain useful information.
The first paper that He Ao saw previously discussed in detail the excessive deviation in the arrival time of the ruins was from Zhang Yusi and her team.
This time, the people who participated in the ruins from the institute had less than two hours from arrival to preparing to enter the ruins. Time was quite urgent. He Ao simply took a look at the information of the institute personnel who entered the ruins this time, and talked to them.
I introduced myself and talked about some simple things to note about the ruins.
I didn’t communicate with everyone in detail.
When He Ao turned around, the woman behind him also saw him. She was a little surprised and a little surprised, "He Ao? Why are you here?"
"Zhang Yusi?"
He Ao looked at her and glanced at the card of life in her hand.
The Card of Life is a derivative of an extraordinary item from the institute. Its function is very simple. When a living person wears it on his hand, this thing will react in a certain way, showing a milky white color. If it is a dead person or not a human being, it will show something else.
color.
This is a very simple small object that can distinguish between ourselves and the enemy. It is especially suitable for exploring ruins. Everyone who enters the ruins will be issued one.
"He Bu, do you recognize me?" Zhang Yusi was obviously excited, "Aren't the places where the ruins appear randomly chosen so that we won't meet each other? Why were the two of us randomly put together? No..."
She looked not far away from her, where there were two other extraordinary beings who clearly looked like people from the Theia Empire, and they also regained consciousness at this time.
"It's four people. Why were the four of us randomly put together..."
Obviously, this incident refreshed her understanding of the ruins.
At this time, the two awakened extraordinary beings also looked over, but their eyes did not fall on Zhang Yusi, but on He Ao.
Leaning outside, a brown-haired man greeted in broken Chinese dialect, "Master He Ao...hello..."
This time, only three C-levels entered, and they were all relatively well-known C-levels. These extraordinary people knew He Ao, and He Ao didn't find it strange. Most likely, the other party's superiors sent information to them to let them know about it.
"Hello," He Ao replied in fluent Tia Imperial dialect, "Are you from Moonlight?"
"Yes."
The two of them didn't seem to expect that He Ao could actually speak Tia Empire language, and they were a little surprised and responded tremblingly.
While talking, both of them subconsciously retreated away from He Ao, as if He Ao was about to commit murder next.
Am I that scary...?
He Ao raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, so how did Yueguang promote himself to have such a deep misunderstanding.
Do you look like a murderous person?
According to the agreements signed by the major organizations, theoretically, extraordinary beings from the major organizations cannot harm each other if they meet in the ruins. In principle, the major organizations have even expressed the opinion that human beings should help each other.
But in actual implementation, the operation depends on the specific situation. After all, it is normal for people to die in ruins.
These two D-levels must be really afraid that He Ao will suddenly get violent and take action.
However, the institute is still reasonable. In principle, it does not allow its members to take the initiative with members of other organizations in the ruins.
They wouldn't do anything to He Ao, and He Ao wouldn't do anything to them. Even out of respect for the mutual help agreement, if they were willing to help He Ao, He Ao would be willing to give back the same help.
After a brief chat, He Ao stopped talking to these two-light extraordinary beings and looked back at Zhang Yusi, "You studied this before, do you know what the situation we are encountering now is?"
"I'm not so sure either,"
Zhang Yusi shook her head blankly, and she shifted her gaze to look at the surrounding environment.
What they are now in is a circular hall. Half of the walls of this hall are transparent glass walls. Behind the glass walls is the silent deep sky shining with the brilliance of stars.
The other half of the wall is a curved metal wall. A long and narrow passage stands on the left third of the metal wall, leading into the deep darkness.
In the middle of the hall, there is what seems to be an operating platform. On the platform, there is a huge sign hanging with various written symbols. This sign has been damaged, and a few leaked arcs are flashing on the sign.
.
Zhang Yusi could imagine the majestic appearance of this hall when it was intact, but the environment that greeted her at the moment was already filled with dim lights, decayed and dim metal walls and floors stained with dried blood.
This claustrophobic space often brings with it a terrifying atmosphere.
"According to our previous information, after passing through the ruins passage and entering the ruins, no two people have ever been assigned to the same area, let alone our current situation of four people, and there are three areas of the ruins, the underground palace, and the ruins
The city, the wilderness, it seems like we are not there at all,"
She suppressed the fear in her heart and looked at the bright and silent starry sky outside the glass wall. "Combined with the changes in the time when the ruins were opened, I think we may have been affected by some special force, and we have arrived..."
··”
"Arrived in a new area that no one has ever been to before."
He Ao glanced at the pure starry sky, and Zhang Yusi's conclusion was basically the same as his.
He looked back at the two-light transcendent who was also discussing in a low voice, "I just don't know if there are only four of us or if more people have arrived here."
"Um,"
Zhang Yusi nodded in agreement, then she suddenly realized something and looked at He Ao with some surprise, "He Bu, do you know what I do?"
She thought Heao just knew a name.
"Researcher from Beidu Ruins Research Institute, codenamed researcher, I have read your information and the paper you wrote."
He Ao nodded, carrying the bone sword on his back, walked to the edge of the huge glass wall, and stared at the starry sky outside.
He didn't know whether this starry sky was a real starry sky, or a phantom formed by some special technology or extraordinary power.
This is the first time He Ao has watched the starry sky from such a perspective.
The silent stars are so vast, and the endless darkness is whispering like an all-devouring abyss.
"ah?"
Zhang Yusi on the side was confused when she heard He Ao's words. She really didn't expect that He Ao would actually read her paper. Then she became a little nervous, like a child whose homework was checked by an elder. "Those things I wrote are all...
Relatively average..."
“Very well written,”
He Ao turned around and walked towards the console in the center of the hall, "Many of your conclusions are groundbreaking and have given me ideas."
Then he didn't wait for Zhang Yusi to get nervous, and further said, "I see in your information that you have never entered the ruins before, nor have you joined the operations department. You have been working in the research institute. This time you actually participated in the selection, and you worked very hard.
I got the quota to enter the ruins, why?”
"oh?"
Zhang Yusi paused for a moment. Her nervousness and embarrassment were interrupted by this question, and she returned to rationality. She explained slowly, "I have been looking at other people's exploration reports and research reports on the ruins, looking for clues.
Research, but always looking at flowers in the fog, fishing for the moon in the water, unable to grasp the true meaning."
"So you are going to enter the ruins yourself this time and see for yourself what the ruins look like?"
He Ao took over what she said.
"Um."
Zhang Yusi nodded.
A research madman who is even willing to take risks with his own life. This state is a bit like Jace in the previous instance.
Hmm... He Ao didn't know whether to say she was unlucky or to praise her for being lucky.
Obviously, what they visited this time was a brand-new map that no one had ever visited before. If Zhang Yusi really researched something, he might be able to become famous in one battle.
The premise is that she can return to the main world alive.
At this time, slight footsteps came from the front. Just now, one of the two extraordinary beings from Yueguang came over carefully. This time it was another brown-haired extraordinary person. He said respectfully to He Ao, "He Ao
Mr. Ao, let’s go explore other places first.”
And his companion, the brown-haired transcendent, stood far away at the exit of the passage.
"Um."
He Ao nodded, and out of the principle of mutual help, reminded, "The ruins are dangerous, be careful."
"thank you."
The brown-haired transcendent didn't seem to expect that He Ao would remind him. He thanked him and walked towards his companions.
At this moment, his companion, the brown-haired transcendent, had already found his way to the door of the passage. While staring at He Ao, he stepped back, as if he was ready to leave his teammates and run away as soon as He Ao made a move.
But the moment the brown-haired extraordinary person turned his head, a smile appeared on his face and he made a greeting gesture, but he didn't take any steps forward.
He Ao took it all in his eyes.
In fact, sometimes it is safer to only have the remains of monsters.
Zhang Yusi also saw this scene. She frowned, but she didn't say anything.
After all, it was moonlight, and there was a layer between them.
"Your codename is 'Researcher'. Your talent shouldn't be biased toward combat?"
He Ao had already walked to the operating table and asked casually.
He looked up and saw the text hanging on the console, which was the first thing he saw when he opened his eyes. It should be 'Welcome to the Navigator' written in different languages.
This hall seems to be some kind of 'welcome' hall.
This half-metal and half-glass landscape shape also looks like a design designed to allow newcomers to adapt to the environment faster.
The place they are currently in seems to be called the 'Navigator'. If the stars outside are real, then this 'Navigator' is most likely a ship that no one has ever seen or entered before.
space ship'.
"Yeah, my talent is 'researcher', and my abilities are more focused on observation, learning, and research."
Zhang Yusi also followed He Ao's movements and looked at the console. She explained in a low voice, "I am good at physical skills and cold weapons. I can also use micro-guns a little. I finally passed the Beidu selection."
She was proving that she was not a 'burden' and was also introducing her strengths to He Ao.
A very smart girl.
He Ao had never doubted Zhang Yusi's ability. He believed in the selection of the institute. The institute would not let a weak person enter the ruins and die.
Before C-level, the gap between the abilities and physical fitness of extraordinary people was not that big, so D-level non-combat extraordinary people, through certain training and certain talents, might be able to use their skills to defeat combat-type extraordinary people.
of.
While talking to Zhang Yusi, He Ao also lowered his head and looked at the screen on the console.
This console is a column with a regular hexagonal bottom surface. In the middle of the console is a sunken regular hexagonal screen, surrounded by some simple physical buttons. At this moment, the surface glass of the screen has been shattered, but below
The inner screen seems to be intact.
There are text labels next to the buttons on the console, but they are all in the first area. He Ao couldn't recognize them all, so he could only look around for the button that looked like a power button and pressed it again.
The console did not light up because of this.
There are several lights on the ceiling above our heads. Although most of these lights have been damaged, there are also holes everywhere in the surrounding ceiling.
But there were still one or two lights on, illuminating the area with dim light. The hall was powered on, but the screen on the console was dark.
This console seems to be completely broken.
"You continue to try to see if you can activate this console, and I'll see if I can dismantle this console."
He Ao said slowly, then squatted down and began to observe carefully along the six cylinders of the operating table.
"OK."
Zhang Yusi nodded.
Start to imitate He Ao's movements and try the buttons one by one.
At this time, He Ao also found something that seemed to be a 'door'.
This is a small 'metal door', which seems to be the access port of this console.
squeak——
He Ao reached out and opened the metal door.
A line of bright red characters written in blood appeared in front of him.
"careful!"
At this moment, a loud shout came from the entrance of the passage.
Some kind of sticky, squirming sound came from the ceiling.
Zhang Yusi raised her head, and saw a twisted, spider-like blood-red monster crawling out of the damaged ventilation duct, right above her head.
The monster looked at Zhang Yusi below, opened its mouth, and suddenly jumped towards Zhang Yusi's frightened face.
At this moment, a white light flashed across Zhang Yusi's entire field of vision, and bright red blood spattered on the woman's cheeks, clothes, and dim walls.
He Ao straightened the blade of the bone sword and drew it back. He glanced at Zhang Yusi's movements and said, "Are you scared?"
Zhang Yusi's body is actually already moving back. If she moves a little further back, she can get out of the attack range of the monster just now. Judging from her movements, she can completely avoid it.
"Um."
Zhang Yusi wiped the blood on her face with some trembling.
Her body was able to react, but she had just been frightened by the terrifying scene and was a step too late.
If it hadn't been for He Ao, her skull might have been chewed into pieces by that monster.
"Normal ruins are not so scary, but now that you are here, you need to adapt quickly."
He Ao said calmly. He glanced at the monster that he split into two. The monster's limbs were still squirming, as if struggling to get up.
He struck the sword again with his backhand, cutting the monster into four.
I don't know why, but looking at He Ao's understatement, Zhang Yusi felt like she wasn't so scared anymore.
Such a terrifying monster, in He Ao's eyes, seemed like an ordinary vegetable, without even the slightest expression when he attacked it.
Who looks... a bit more ferocious than this monster.
At this time, He Ao also raised his head and looked towards the direction where the voice that just warned them to 'be careful' came from.
At this moment, the moonlight transcendent with brown hair was standing at the door. He looked at He Ao, his voice was trembling, and he walked over slowly, "Lord He Ao."
"Where is your companion?"
He Ao glanced at the silent passage behind him and asked calmly.
"He died, we just..."
His tone was trembling, and he slowly walked towards He Ao,
"We just walked along the vent, and just after walking a few dozen meters, we heard a strange sound above the passage. Then the deeper we went, the darker the lights in the passage became.
"After walking about a hundred or two hundred meters, a gate appeared in front of us. The gate had a window. We could see the silent metal corridor behind the gate, but the light was too dark. Whether it was in front of the gate or behind the gate, we could see
Unclear.
"We walked to the gate, and Yasien said that he heard something from behind the gate, calling us to come over. I told him to be careful, the ruins are dangerous, and not to go near the gate.
"He didn't listen to me and I couldn't stop him. He walked to the gate, found the gate switch, and pulled the switch."
Having said this, his tone paused, as if he remembered something terrifying, and his speed gradually increased, "A monster like a sea anemone is hiding behind the gate! It suddenly appeared, and its ring-shaped fangs bit it.
on Asion's back,
"Asien was eaten by that monster, and there was blood... there was blood everywhere..."
He looked at He Ao, his body trembling unconsciously, "There are several monsters who also ran in along the gate. I have no choice but to run and come back. They are all chasing me."
His eyes were wide open and filled with bright red bloodshot eyes.
Under the dim light, his bright red footprints were hidden into the dim metal floor.
He opened his mouth and approached He Ao step by step, getting closer and closer, almost reaching in front of He Ao.
"Be careful! Don't let him get close!"
A shout suddenly came from the entrance of the passage.
Zhang Yusi looked in the direction where the shouts came from, only to find the brown-haired 'Yasien', whose clothes were in tatters and covered in blood, standing at the entrance of the passage, looking at them in panic and worry.
