Only My Way

#564 - Invisible Metal Golem

'Where exactly have I been transported to?'

'It feels like I'm inside an alien base…'

'This ancient ruin is a bit too advanced, isn't it!?'

Gazing at the various sights around him,

Doubts immediately flooded Ling Wuyuan's mind.

Although, earlier on,

When Ling Wuyuan discovered that the things others thought were metal passages were actually super-gigantic metal cannon barrels, he felt a strange sense of incongruity.

But the scenes he was witnessing now,

Still made him feel somewhat unable to comprehend.

For a moment,

He even thought of a very common trope in some fantasy works from his previous life.

For example, that on the 【Golden Firmament Continent】 there actually existed a super-ancient civilization that followed a technological path a long, long time ago, but by today, they had already completely vanished, and the scenes Ling Wuyuan was currently seeing were the traces they left behind…

Hmm~

A very classic trope~

Very common in various novels, comics, movies, and animations.

It's hard for people to find anything new about it.

But at this moment.

Even though he felt that kind of setting was a bit cliché.

Looking at the many scenes in front of him.

Ling Wuyuan's heart.

Couldn't help but sprout related conjectures.

No way.

Even if that kind of conjecture was a bit outrageous.

But given the nature of this world.

It doesn't seem like something absolutely impossible…

A lost super-ancient civilization?

Hmm.

Very reasonable~

Then.

Just as he was deeply puzzled by the matter.

Following a premonition in the dark.

He turned his gaze towards a certain place in front.

Originally, many years ago, that area should have been where some kind of building complex was located.

But at this moment.

In that place.

Ling Wuyuan only saw a large number of messy ruins.

Looking around.

I don't know how many metal wrecks are lying there quietly.

Moreover, some tubular objects that should be special circuits are also continuously releasing some kind of special fluorescence within the ruins.

Although he didn't know what those fluorescences were.

Ling Wuyuan could instinctively perceive that it was better for him not to get too close.

Of course.

At this moment.

The focus of Ling Wuyuan's attention was definitely not those meaningless fluorescences.

But other things.

Something that not only the naked eye could not see its form.

Even the power of the mind could not scan out any abnormalities.

Clearly, Ling Wuyuan's various senses were telling him that there was nothing in that place.

But his sixth sense was refuting the judgments made by various sensory abilities…

The body's sensory abilities told him that there was no problem there.

The sixth sense told him that there was some kind of problem there.

Without a doubt.

This was an extremely contradictory situation!!

And when the conclusions of the two contradicted each other.

Ling Wuyuan's choice was also very simple.

That was to choose to believe in his sixth sense.

After all.

The body's sensory abilities were too limited by strength level.

That was an unavoidable situation.

Compared to that.

Ling Wuyuan's sixth sense was undoubtedly much more mysterious.

Often able to make him make some miraculous choices.

This time.

It was still the same!

Under his gaze.

A metal puppet whose upper body resembled a human, whose lower body had six limbs, and whose head was like a combination of a crab, spider, and lobster, silently withdrew from its invisible state, quietly standing on top of the ruins, silently staring at Ling Wuyuan from afar.

Throughout the whole process.

Ling Wuyuan could also see that a large amount of fluorescence was being continuously absorbed by it.

'The guardian puppet of this ancient ruin?'

'Those fluorescences are the source of its power?'

To this.

Ling Wuyuan was a little unsure.

However.

At this moment.

Even if there were no bloodstains or signs of battle on its body.

The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ say ⊥ is ⊥ at ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥ ⊥ book ⊥ ⊥ bar ⊥ ⊥ first ⊥ release!

But after it withdrew from its invisible state.

As some kind of camouflage effect faded away, Ling Wuyuan could still perceive that it possessed some kind of faint resentment.

He understood that it was the smell of a recent killing.

Moreover, the guy who was killed by it must have been an extremely powerful expert!

Otherwise.

It would not be able to leave behind that level of resentment.

That was a trace that only a guy with extremely powerful mental strength could leave behind!

In this place.

Able to be killed by it.

And also have such strength.

After Ling Wuyuan thought about it and pondered it silently.

Apart from that group of experts from various forces.

He really couldn't think of any other targets.

'No wonder that group of guys didn't make any noise at all.'

'Presumably, even if they weren't all killed, they should have been scattered…'

As for the possibility that the group of outside experts won against the guardian puppet?

Looking at the puppet's appearance without any scars.

Ling Wuyuan found it a little hard to imagine that those guys won the battle…

A strategic retreat after a victory?

That was a bit possible.

For a moment.

Thinking that the metal puppet in front of him might have already killed or driven back the experts from various parties.

The vigilance in Ling Wuyuan's heart directly reached the highest point, and the power called 【Interdimensional Speed】 also quietly activated.

This was to prevent himself from being instantly killed by it.

He understood that before.

The reason why he was able to perceive it.

Was actually entirely relying on his own extraordinary sixth sense.

Once it re-entered the invisible state.

Then he would not be able to accurately perceive its actions at all.

From this perspective.

The invisibility ability it possessed.

Was obviously not the kind of invisibility in the conventional sense, but some kind of more complex and more concealed ability.

Invisibility.

Was probably just some extremely insignificant effect among them.

But what made Ling Wuyuan extremely puzzled was, for some reason, although he could sense its existence, he could not sense its danger — 【Safe】.

Yes, his sixth sense.

Directly defined the metal puppet in front of him as 【Safe】.

That was a rather strange feeling.

A bit similar to suddenly seeing a security guard silently working at a park…

【As long as I don't actively provoke it, then it won't actively provoke me.】

In the dark.

Ling Wuyuan realized this point for no reason.

Then, although there was no evidence.

Ling Wuyuan still chose to believe in his sixth sense.

And its reaction also proved that his guess was not wrong at all.

After silently observing him for a while.

The metal puppet, which had re-stored its energy and replenished its previous consumption, once again entered the invisible state, and continued to patrol according to its established trajectory, without any intention of paying attention to Ling Wuyuan at all.

'… …'

'It's really a kind of ambiguous situation that makes people unable to understand…'
