Volume 13: The Lights in the Sky Are All Enemies Chapter 28: Recruitment (Part 2)
The old man didn't lie to Leng Feng in the end, or there was no need to lie. Following the path left by the inheritance, in the memory, there was indeed a strange relic between the mountains that looked out of tune with the other relics, and it could even be said that it was a completely different style.
Most of the other ruins were brick and stone structures, or had some strange magic mixed with flesh and blood, which looked like some living creatures. And these creatures were usually full of all kinds of malice and uncontrollable manic tendencies. Strictly speaking, this place sealed by wind and snow was more like the remains of some military facilities than ancient ruins. But the players didn't care much about this.
After all, for players, what ruins are not ruins? As long as you can level up, as long as you can upgrade, there is no place that is not worth staying.
But this is without comparison.
After lifting up the ice and snow that had covered the area for who knows how many years, the players looked at the strange ruins below that seemed to be still rotating and felt deeply the uniqueness of this ruins.
The completely different architectural style and the still functioning facilities, if Leng Feng had not personally swept away the accumulated snow on top, he might have thought that this relic was still in operation. No, perhaps it was in operation, but it was operating in a way that ordinary people could hardly understand. Because even in this endless snowy winter, the spire of the relic still shone with some brilliant light, and from time to time some azure runes flashed by, which looked particularly mysterious and magnificent.
It was a freezing winter outside, and the surrounding area was a scorched wasteland. However, this strange building, which looked like it had fallen from the sky, stood on the permafrost, covered by layers of ice and snow, and it was still running for who knows how many years. This quality can be said to be more powerful than 99% of the ruins on this planet.
At least this kind of special energy does not appear to be flowing in those strange ruins.
'Perhaps there are still some defensive facilities left?'
Looking at the shining obelisk-shaped ruins, Leng Feng frowned and walked tentatively towards the huge golden building.
Not surprisingly, the building was still in operation. After sensing the person coming from outside, the golden building quickly began to vibrate and a pale white shield that looked weak and powerless, as if it could be pierced by a hand, slowly rose from the ground.
Like a pattern, the fragile shield was glittering with some brilliant runes and small sparks of pale gold or pale white. Rather than a defensive measure, it looked more like a delicate and fragile work of art. It was constantly trembling under the biting cold wind outside, with that little tenacious flame burning stubbornly in the face of the cold wind. It was like a gentleman's wall without any lethality or defensive power, existing only to prove its existence.
'But does this defensive measure make sense?'
Tentatively reaching his hand in, Leng Feng only felt his body warm up, the mark on his wrist lightened slightly, and then he successfully passed through the protective shield and walked into the dazzling ruins. The whole action was no more difficult than walking towards the automatic sensor door in a supermarket, and it was so easy that it was a little hard to accept.
Looking at the pale white sparks that flew around him, Leng Feng had no idea what the mindset was behind the establishment of these facilities. What could such a tiny flame do? To please the enemy and make them laugh? That tiny flame looked like it couldn't even light a firecracker. What principle did it use to work until now? Could it be that the energy of the entire ruins had been exhausted because of the long time?
However, as Leng Feng watched the crystal lamps and rune arrays gradually light up as he entered, and the entire obelisk began to tremble, he quickly overturned his guess. The entire ruins was like a sleeping person reviving with the arrival of this intruder. In the howling cold wind, the entire obelisk silently split from the middle axis and then bloomed to the surroundings. It looked like a person opening an umbrella in his hand. Several basic skeletons and light films supported the entire rune structure. Some crystal clear and beautiful architectural arrays bloomed from the inside of the obelisk and were reconstructed in a certain order.
This deformation did not make any sound, but it roared in Leng Feng's mind, using an inorganic prompt sound to remind him of what exactly existed in this place.
'System self-check completed. Frontline position Z315D12D2 starts operation.'
That’s awesome.
Listening to the cold inorganic voice echoing in his mind, the player who was still in a state of eating raw meat and drinking blood was suddenly stunned by the high-tech style of Holy Light.
Where was the fantasy background of Les Miserables? We were still playing A Song of Ice and Fire, but Star Wars was playing overhead? However, this also completely made Leng Feng abandon the idea that the Holy Light system might be a weakling. After all, anyone who could come up with such an AI and cool sci-fi development could not be a weakling, logically and rationally.
However, the gradually blossoming obelisk gave him more than just this shock. Those illusory buildings condensed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and those runes quickly transformed into entities. The huge energy that even Leng Feng felt was a bit terrifying was inside the obelisk - oh no, now it should be said that it was an entire polygonal base that looked like a flower - conducting a creepy patrol surveillance and signal upload.
"Detecting special signals——The Pale Expedition has been activated again, and is now receiving battlefield data——"
"Basic matters have been analyzed. Local data is being uploaded and connected to the core database. We are starting to search for the nearest Holy Light Fleet information sub-ship—"
'No trace of the mothership was found within fifty units of the event boundary unit. Now we are tracing back to the Holy Light Fleet's senior command unit. We are tracing back the Holy Light Fleet's squadron broadcast... Tracing failed. Pale Expedition event was confirmed again... Confirmed. Confirmed that the heir inherited the Holy Light for the first time. Confirmed that the situation is urgent at this time. AI defaults to switch to the military system channel...'
'The Holy Light Fleet channel message has been captured. The closest to your location is the preaching fleet 'Drifter'. This fleet will arrive at the world where the heir is in three hours. Please be careful with your words and your image, and do not bring shame to the Holy Light. During this period, you can read the records left by other warriors in this base and the corresponding epic biographies to pass the time. We will do our best to help everyone. Until we die.'
“…”
Wow, that’s really amazing.
Looking at the large-scale architectural structure that had completely condensed and formed in front of him, which was as dazzling and exquisite as a petal, Leng Feng only felt that his normal gaming senses were strongly shocked.
