Chapter 907: I don't know how they followed me here.
"Oh, what brings you here, Miss Yueru?"
Gu Heng's eyes lit up. Yue Ru had been traveling quietly for several days without noticing that someone was following her.
and many more.
This doesn't seem right. Why did she follow us here?
When he set off, Yue Ru had just finished her exploration and was resting in the Buddhist temple. But no sooner had he arrived than she appeared. Gu Heng found it hard to say what kind of coincidence this was.
Moreover, Yue Ru herself said that this place was a dangerous forbidden area and that he shouldn't go near it. He only came here because he had a clear purpose, so why did Yue Ru...?
"It seems you didn't take my words to heart." Yue Ru walked in step by step, past Gu Heng, her gaze falling on the giant city that harbored countless technological creations, and sighed.
She knew it.
This guy set off full of confidence, and she immediately sensed something was wrong. She followed him even though her injuries hadn't fully healed. And to her surprise, he really was coming to this technological civilization ruin!
"There are so many places to go in the Epoch Cemetery, yet you insist on coming to a place that has nothing to do with cultivators, and a place where you have a slim chance of survival."
"I really don't know what to say to you."
Yue Ru frowned, feeling that this talkative newcomer was truly ignorant, completely unaware of the dangerous place she was about to enter.
The danger of this site, a remnant of technological civilization, is extremely high. Most importantly, there is absolutely no useful opportunity in this place!
No opportunity, no weapons!
Those who are not from a technologically advanced civilization should basically not even think about overstepping the "technological authority" those guys talk about. For cultivators, technological artifacts are completely useless; they have no idea how to use them!
If they were outside, cultivators would be happy to buy some "trinkets" from technological civilizations, and people would be willing to establish a master-servant relationship for those items... But this is the Epoch Graveyard, where no people from technological civilizations do business. Those technological creations will not hesitate to take action if they see something that does not belong to technological civilization.
Such a thankless and arduous place should not be visited.
But there's a newcomer who's determined to take an unconventional approach.
"I have a feeling that I've come to the right place."
Gu Heng said with absolute certainty.
"Are you a prisoner of technological civilization? As far as I know, technological civilization never exiles prisoners to the Epoch Graveyard."
Yue Ru glanced at him coldly.
"I am not, but I still have some connection with technological civilization." If the system is still with him, Gu Heng feels that he has definitely made the right choice in coming here. But if it is gone, and those technological creations inside start attacking him again, then he can only run away in disgrace.
There was no way around it; if Yue Ru was telling the truth, then the firepower here would probably wipe him out without breaking a sweat.
She had no reason to lie to a newcomer, and it seemed that she deliberately stayed up for several days and secretly followed him because she was worried that he would do something stupid.
"Sigh... I've seen plenty of people as confident as you."
"It's a pity that not many of them are still alive today."
Yue Ru really didn't see that this person who called himself "Gu Heng" could have such courage. He clearly knew nothing, yet he dared to go anywhere just like that "Enemy of the Epoch".
Ordinary people exiled to the Epoch Graveyard would never have such confidence and optimism. The only outcome for those who come to this place is to be corrupted by concepts until they die in agony. There is no other possibility, let alone leaving.
basically.
Once they get in, they're basically all dead inside. Even if they're initially very motivated and think there's still a glimmer of hope, after a while, that last bit of enthusiasm will disappear completely.
In order to continue to improve their strength and resist the erosion of concepts, they had no choice but to leave their less eroded strongholds and search for ways to become stronger among the remnants of civilizations in the Epochal Graveyard, only to be eroded even more severely in the process...
all in all.
This is a situation that will only make people more and more desperate.
Judging from Zhao Yueru's experience, Gu Heng is currently still in the "grand pronouncements" stage, but it has remained unchanged for a long time...
and.
Conceptual erosion doesn't seem to have had much of an effect on him.
This is quite strange, after all, this conceptual erosion originates from the terrifying power of the corpses of gods. Even gods who have died still retain a great deal of power.
Yue Ru arrived here, and she didn't know how much time had passed. The concept erosion tormented her day and night, corroding her life force, body, and soul. She felt that it was a miracle that she had survived until today.
But... he seems fine?
That's not quite right either.
Upon first arriving at the Epoch Graveyard, the pain of conceptual erosion is the most unbearable; it is only after a long time that one begins to feel numb.
Yue Ru didn't pay much attention to these minor anomalies.
In the long run, it's all the same.
"Anyway, I have to go in. Miss Yue Ru doesn't have to come with me. I can tell you haven't rested well either, have you?"
Gu Heng turned around and looked at Yue Ru's still somewhat pale face.
"Don't bother with that. Since we're already here, I have to stay with you. If I don't, I'm afraid you'll do something stupid and lose your life."
Yue Ru said calmly.
She's starting to wonder why she's followed along in such a daze.
She had no connection with Gu Heng to begin with, so even if he died out there, it wouldn't concern her. At most, she would say a few words of eulogy for him, and that would be the end of it. She would still have to live her own life as usual.
But now that they were standing at the entrance to this relic of technological civilization, Yue Ru saw how determined he was to go in. If it were anyone else, she would have turned around and left immediately.
Good words cannot persuade a damned person.
But Yue Ru felt that there was something different about this newcomer. She was also curious about where Gu Heng got his confidence. Besides, what if they could really get in there?
"Then let's go."
Gu Heng didn't linger and went straight down the mountain towards the technological megacity. Yue Ru followed closely behind, her steps steady but somewhat unsteady.
Fortunately, the conceptual erosion of this technological civilization relic is very mild. If it weren't for the many uncontrollable, indiscriminately killing technological creations inside, this place would be perfectly qualified as a safe haven!
Half an hour later.
Gu Heng and Yue Ru arrived at the outer perimeter of the technological civilization ruins.
"Be careful, further ahead is the detection range of those technological creations."
Yue Ru suddenly grabbed his hand.
Gu Heng looked up and saw at least several hundred technological creations roaming around aimlessly.
He couldn't see any danger in these things, but Yue Ru was on high alert, probably because she had already experienced the power of these technological creations.
"These things didn't fly outside?" "These technological creations were already programmed to stay within the ruins of civilization, targeting only any life that enters them..."
"You know a lot, Miss Yueru."
"Heh, once you've stayed here long enough, you too will—"
Sudden.
Yue Ru's voice abruptly stopped!
Her face also began to look extremely pale!
"wrong!"
"We're locked in!"
