Bankruptcy beast

Mysterious cave.

As Jiutong discovered, the space inside was extremely wide, as if someone had directly hollowed out the mountains.

"This place doesn't look like it was formed naturally."

Li Yang looked around carefully and quickly came to his own conclusion.

"It does look like it was dug manually, but judging from the traces, it shouldn't be in a recent stage. I'm afraid it's a few years old."

The patrolman touched the stone wall and said, "I suspect that this place was probably excavated by some force in the early days, but was abandoned later."

As soon as Xunfeng made these words, Jiang Chen and Li Yang both looked at each other with stern looks.

The Wuxins are the first group of people to rise up in the wilderness. It is understandable how difficult it is to open such a cave under their noses.

Unless...this organization has a cooperative relationship with the Unintentional from the beginning.

avalanche!

All three people came to the same answer, and they became more and more certain about Jiang Chen's previous guess.

Perhaps this place was once abandoned, but since the fluctuations of the Kaitian Cone are felt here, it is very likely that the place has been restarted by the Avalanche Organization.

It's just that this place is too big, and the Avalanche Organization has only activated part of it. If it weren't for the arrival of the Ice and Snow Realm, which changed the terrain of the snowy mountains and exposed the entrance, they might not have been able to find this cave at all.

"It seems we have really found the right place."

Jiang Chen rubbed his chin, glanced at Patroller and Li Yang, and said, "We may have a head-on battle with the Avalanche organization. For safety reasons, why don't you go back first?"

"Can I understand that you are looking down on me?"

The patrolman rolled his eyes angrily and said, "Let's not talk about whether I can beat him or not. Even if I can't beat him, no one can keep me."

"Okay, okay, okay, I know your interests."

Jiang Chen smacked his lips, and then looked at Li Yang with an incomprehensible look.

"Then Li Yang, why don't you leave first and inform Senior Xiang? If this is really the Avalanche organization, there may be a big war by then, and our numbers may not be enough."

"I don't plan on leaving either."

Li Yang shook the Huangjing in his hand and said: "Huangjing's signal is very strong, and it can communicate with the outside world here. I will keep in communication with the president at any time."

"Besides, I'm not weak enough to need to escape."

Hearing Li Yang's slightly dissatisfied tone, Jiang Chen's expression suddenly softened and he immediately apologized.

"Sorry, I just don't want too many surprises."

Of course these words were false. Jiang Chen's real purpose was just to test Li Yang's attitude.

But so far, it seems there are no flaws.

I hope I'm just overthinking it.

"Jiutong, expand the scope of exploration to the maximum, and don't let go of any suspicious clues."

"Hongzhong, give me a God's perspective. The more comprehensive the better."

Meow meow?

After hearing Jiang Chen's order, Jiutong immediately started to take action, while Hongzhong emerged from the Wuxiangze Cauldron. He was stunned for a moment before hundreds of water droplets spread out around him.

With the complete separation of Hong Zhong's true soul, Hong Zhong has become more and more skilled in the operation of dividing souls, and it is only a matter of time before he can have millions of clones.

But Hongzhong is now concerned about more than just the division of souls.

After constructing a complete God's perspective network, Hongzhong ran back to the Wuxiangze Cauldron again, licking Bing Lingtan while trying to divide his true spirit.

That’s right, it’s dividing the true spirit!

After comprehending the twin runes, Hongzhong did not rest on his laurels, but boldly embarked on a new path.

Since the soul can be divided, why can't the real spirit be divided?

If the true spirit can be separated while cutting off the three corpses, can these three corpses also be treated as real living beings?

These are just Hongzhong's self-conjectures, and even Jiang Chen is not very clear about them.

After entrusting his true spirit to the Wuxiang Zeding, Hongzhong's realm has obviously reached another level.

This state has nothing to do with combat power, it is simply a state of understanding the laws and the origin of the world.

To put it in terms of fantasy novels from previous lives, what Hongzhong is doing now is to understand the way of heaven.

But these are all things for later. Now Hongzhong still obeyed Jiang Chen's instructions very obediently and presented the scene he saw in front of Jiang Chen in the form of a small picture.

Relying on the incredible perception skills of Jiutong and Hongzhong, this dangerous cave exploration mission instantly became much safer.

But even so, Jiang Chen and the others still did not relax their vigilance and followed the road cautiously.

This cave is not only very wide, but also deeper than the three of them expected.

But in such a closed space for many years, Jiang Chen didn't feel much stuffiness.

Not only that, Jiang Chen also saw a lot of shelters and air-raid shelters on Jiutong's three-dimensional map.

Although these are all dug out of the stone wall, they have complete functions.

"Perhaps those who originally opened this cave wanted to use it as a refuge?"

Jiang Chen thought thoughtfully. In the early days of the Dawn Calendar, human society was once on the verge of extinction due to the impact of extraordinary creatures.

However, under the leadership of various major forces, humans built a series of shelters to retain some vitality, and then slowly established the current federation.

But shelters have a capacity limit. Even if the major forces try their best to be fair and just, there are still a large number of humans who can only live outside shelters.

Some choose to build a town around a shelter to test the kindness of the person in charge of the shelter.

But some people choose to be self-reliant and open alternative shelters on their own.

Nowadays, most of the official shelters have been destroyed, and the remaining ones have been transformed into fortresses by the military, while those civilian shelters have completely disappeared without a trace.

Now it seems that this may be a civilian shelter.

"But building a sanctuary under the eyes of the unintentional, is this really a big deal, or is it, as I just thought, that these people have betrayed their compatriots long ago?"

Susu...

At this moment, Jiutong suddenly sent out a warning, and Jiang Chen and the other three also calmed down and looked ahead cautiously.

The cave was still very quiet, but on Jiutong's three-dimensional soul map, dozens of soul fluctuations appeared.

"There is no energy fluctuation. It should be deliberately restrained."

The patrolman closed his eyes and sensed it for a while, then looked at Li Yang.

"It's not that they are deliberately restrained, it's that their energy fluctuations are covered up by other things."

"...Open Sky Cone!"

The three of them spoke together, and the Open Sky Cone would actively absorb the surrounding energy and use it to draw the small world down.

If there are a large number of open sky cones, it will indeed have the effect of hiding energy fluctuations.

Thinking of this, a light flashed in the eyes of the three of them, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

"Get rich, don't hold back later, just attack at will!"

Jiang Chen's face was solemn and he warned seriously.

Da da!

Fa Cai waved his claws vigorously, and the Immortal Nirvana Golden Body opened, blocking all surrounding perceptions, and swept forward at a terrifying speed.

Judging from the strength of the souls perceived by Jiutong, the extraordinary creatures inside are only at the star level at the highest level and pose no threat to them at all.

Instead of wasting time and testing carefully, it is better to defeat the enemy with a thunderous strike.

But when Fa Cai broke through the rock wall and appeared in front of the enemy, he couldn't help but froze on the spot.

It was not the demonized legion they expected, nor the undead legion. What was behind the rock wall seemed to be more than a dozen machines.

To be precise, there are more than a dozen mechanical pets!

"Mechanical Pet Spirit? Is it Tianqi University?"

Jiang Chen looked at the mechanical pet spirit that was wielding a mining hammer to dig out ore, and his thoughts suddenly became confused.

Apocalypse University, which rebuilt federal technology together with Daystar, is actually related to the Avalanche organization?

"Get rich and keep someone alive."

Thinking that Tianqi University might also be a traitor, Jiang Chen's heart suddenly became cold.

Da da……

After making a fortune, without waiting for the reaction of those mechanical pet spirits, he dismantled them all in a few flashes, leaving only one star-level machine and threw it in front of Jiutong.

Jiutong was naturally aware of his mission. The Judgment Scale emerged and remotely controlled the broken soul to pull the soul of this mechanical pet spirit out of the core of the brain.

But just when Jiutong was about to dissect the opponent's soul, the core of the mechanical pet spirit suddenly disintegrated itself, and the soul was also destroyed.

"You are indeed prepared."

Jiang Chen narrowed his eyes slightly. It had only been a few months since the advent of mechanical pet spirits, and he didn't know much about them.

But considering the characteristics of the machine, it does not seem to be very difficult to install some self-destruction mechanisms.

But in this way, he would not be able to verify the true ownership of these mechanical pets.

After all, deep down in his heart, he still didn't want Apocalypse University to be a traitor.

"Jiang Chen, come here and take a look at this."

At this moment, Li Yang seemed to have found some clue. After rummaging through the other mechanical pets that were instantly killed by Fortune, he grabbed a handful of black iron sand and came to Jiang Chen.

"Is this... nanomachinery?"

Jiang Chen frowned slightly. He had seen the effect of nanomachines in battle during the evaluation competition. If these machine pets were really from Tianqi University, it would not be surprising for nanomachines to appear.

"It is indeed nanomachines, but this is not the type Apocalypse University is accustomed to."

Li Yang shook his head and said: "You are not from Xiling, so you don't know. This kind of nanomachines is quite common in Xiling. They can be seen in almost all walks of life."

"And you are also familiar with the forces behind these nanomachines."

"Su's family."

The patrolman suddenly spoke, looking at these nanomachines with amusement in his eyes, and Jiang Chen also changed after hearing Li Yang's words.

I almost forgot, Apocalypse University is not the only one in the federation who knows how to play with machines.

Even in this place, the possibility of these mechanical pets belonging to the Su family is high or low.

There were two suspects, but Jiang Chen's mood became heavier.

Tianqi University, Su.

Whichever one is the traitor is not good news for the Federation.

But combined with what the teacher asked me to investigate before, this conclusion seems to be a certainty? (End of chapter)
