A trip that just went away. Now that he had made up his mind, Esther was not going to stay in the camp anymore. After getting what he wanted, a spare FM timer, a map of the distribution of abyssal evil species, and a
After receiving a map of the inner and outer areas of the ruins, Esther left with Lilina and Crow.
"They left and took an FM timer with them," the pioneer said.
"Let them take away one FM time device. The current camp does not need so many FM time devices." Locke said nonchalantly. Compared to those outsiders leaving, one FM time device is nothing to him.
"Ignore them and talk about the next plan for the camp. I believe everyone knows about the professor's return. Although the time is not good now, I want to organize another ruins exploration." Locke looked around at everyone and said.
Another captain-level pioneer sitting opposite Locke frowned slightly, seeming to be thinking about Locke's intentions.
"Enter the ruins to explore now?" Soon, someone asked.
"After resurfacing most of the pioneers, the current situation of the camp cannot support the exploration of the ruins at all. The closing of the protective circle has allowed the abyssal species in other areas to become active. At least within a few days, we will definitely be attacked."
At this juncture, Locke said that he would organize the few people in the camp and enter the ruins to explore again. This is completely a fantasy.
"I naturally know the current situation of the camp, so this exploration will not involve too many people. Except for me and the professor, plus the other six people in my team, it is enough to form an exploration team. It is only eight people.
The overall impact is not significant.”
Spread out in front of everyone on the table was the distribution map of the abyssal species. Locke pointed to a place and said: "Currently, this is the abyssal species closest to us, a scorpion-like species. When we first explored the surrounding area, we have determined
The threat of these abyssal beasts is not great, I believe the people left behind are enough to deal with these creatures."
According to Locke, just organizing a team of eight people to explore the ruins does not seem to be something that needs to be considered. After all, the professor has returned, and only by entering the ruins can the professor's maximum value be brought into play.
Locke glanced around at the people around him and continued to strike while the iron was hot: "Everyone, the ruins will not stay in one place forever. You must know that this is an abyss. Even if there is an FM timer to stabilize it, the changes in the abyss are still unpredictable.
In areas outside the influence range of the frequency modulation time instrument, 144 periodic changes have been experienced, and in our perception, it has also been experienced 26 times. There has been a certain deviation in the 26 changes in the ruins, among which the largest one
The offset caused it to appear directly thirty kilometers away from us."
"We, the pioneers who stayed behind, are here to monitor the changes in the ruins and prevent them from slipping away from the eyes of the association."
"So I will organize this exploration, and I will be fully responsible for the consequences." Locke had already said what he said, so naturally no one objected.
The other captain who could oppose him seemed not to have any opinion on Locke's exploration of the ruins.
"The next cycle will be in three days. If there are changes in the ruins, you can still contact the camp from inside. At least the ruins will not be lost from our eyes." The captain-level pioneer said.
Locke nodded to the other party, and the matter was settled.
The camp needs to start organizing manpower and preparing supplies. They cannot decide like Esther and just go on a quick trip. There are too many things that need to be paid attention to, and the departure time will not be until at least tomorrow.
One of Locke's confidants was left behind by him, and he explained some issues that he needed to pay attention to when he was not in the camp.
After Mayer's "sabotage", some of the supplies in the camp were transferred to Locke's team. Externally, he claimed that these were his personal supplies and were used to make up for the losses in the camp.
He was not worried about anyone discovering something strange in the material storage warehouse in the center of the camp. It was enveloped in high temperatures and no one would be foolish enough to approach it. The only person worth noting was the captain-level pioneer left in the camp.
But with his confidants here, there is no need to worry too much.
...
"This place looks like a deserted city."
Ruin and darkness, this is the most intuitive feeling that the ruins bring to Lilina. The stone wall of Takamatsu can vaguely see the glory of the past, but now it has completely lost its color.
The elegant sculptures were wiped out by the abyss, and the rough and violent black vines replaced the style of the entire city.
Lilina didn't know how to describe the feeling in her heart, but she was feeling a little depressed at the moment.
"The buildings here have the shadow of the Third Dynasty. I was here a long time ago. If you continue walking along this road, you should be able to see the city wall." Esther said.
"The Third Dynasty, that was a long time ago." Crow said, she had never been here before, it seemed that she was not with Esther when he came here.
"The Renaissance six hundred years ago was a flourishing age of humanism and the beginning of the extinction of the elves. Some people in the Vampire Tribe had long predicted that the elves would not survive on this land for a hundred years, but it turns out that the prediction underestimated them." Esther.
He smiled sarcastically.
Esther reached out and touched the statue in the center of the city, and a layer of white ash was wiped off.
"The elves of the Third Dynasty didn't even last a hundred years. It only took them forty years to push themselves into the abyss."
The statue in front of him should have been an elf soldier, but now what Esder saw was an abyssal evil with its teeth and claws. This was the influence of the will of the abyss. It changed not only people, but also these objects.
"How did they push themselves into the abyss?"
Esther shook his head, "That's another story."
There are still abyssal evils roaming in the ruins. They encountered many of them on the way to the middle level, but they were not difficult to deal with.
Finally, they saw a huge and magnificent city wall that extended to both sides with no end in sight.
"Latamedaya, this should be the name of the city wall, probably." Esther wasn't sure, too much time had passed, and he didn't remember it clearly.
The statues of elven soldiers along the way have collapsed. Only the huge statues on both sides of the city gate have not been damaged, but they are no longer what they were before.
These statues now look like abyssal aliens holding elven swords.
"The city gate here can only be opened from the inside, so we fly up directly."
Lilina raised her head and looked up from under the city wall. It was at least thirty stories high. It was hard to imagine what technology existed in ancient times to build such a huge building.
This is unscientific!?
"But it's magic." Esther said.
At the same time, a rickety figure on the city wall was looking into the distance.
