Chapter 2247 Suspicious Building Ruins

On the second day, near noon, our group finally arrived at our destination.

This is a very common-looking building ruins, with broken walls, rubble and collapsed walls, and signs of dilapidation everywhere.

The vines that covered the ground and walls had long since dried up and died, leaving only a piece of inorganic matter as hard as fossils.

Break off a small section of the vine fossil and rub it with a little force. The hard dark green fossil turns into fly ash, which is dissipated in the empty ruins with the breeze blowing by.

"No one has been here for many years." I clapped my hands and said to Kailan: "Otherwise, the vines here would not be so complete."

"Even if someone comes, they won't pay attention to these worthless vine fossils," Kailan retorted.

"That's not necessarily the case." I shook my head and smiled: "Human curiosity and desire for destruction are powerful. Once human adventurers successfully arrive here and face the ruins of ancient buildings, what do you think they will do?"

Kailan thought for a while: "Start a thrilling adventure game?"

"Your idea is correct, but the description is very euphemistic." I sneered: "Once human adventurers set foot here, they will eagerly enter the building and sweep away valuable things, worthless things, or seemingly Worthless things will be ruthlessly destroyed by them, and in the end, they may even set a fire to burn these words, the vines, and the entire ruins into ashes."

"You think humans are too vicious," Kailan muttered dissatisfied.

"Vicious?" I continued to sneer: "Human beings are more vicious than that. Persecution, killing, burning bridges, and betrayal are all methods that humans are born with. Besides, it is just burning a ruins, so how can it be considered vicious? You have no access to historical documents, and all you hear are historical passages that have been beautified by others. Real history is crueler than you imagine, and real human beings are also worse than you imagine. Let me give you the simplest example. A certain city lord, in order to conceal his identity, surrounded and killed an entire village of innocent residents. This is a true case recorded in historical documents."

"How do you know it's real?" Kellan retorted.

"It's very simple. The author of that historical document is the grandson of the last goblin emperor Fred Rupert - His Majesty Fred Alexander, who is known as the Holy King by the world. I know this person quite well. He He is a pragmatic monarch who never lies, and because of this, I trust most of what he said and most of the history he recorded."

"The name Philed Alexander has been circulated among the people. It is said that the first monarch of Airey City, Carter Adams, once set an ancestral precept, requiring all successors to the monarch to obey the legendary monarch. The period of melee was the most famous The benevolent king, Fred Alexander, studies, works hard, and keeps making progress."

"Wait a minute," I quickly interrupted Kailan and asked, "How do you know the ancestral precepts of the Carter family?"

"It's rumored among the people," Kailan said, "You have lived in Airui City for a long time, haven't you heard of it?"

I was a little embarrassed and shook my head.

When I was living in Ai Rui City, I was either running for a living or mediating the conflict between Phoenix and Barbara. How could I have time to deal with that stuff!

After walking around the ruins for more than half an hour, I returned to the starting point. I asked Kailan: "Can you point me in the direction? Which building should we start exploring first?"

Kailan stared at me with a smile: "Are you planning another bad idea?"

I cried out that I was wronged, but I just felt that since this is the site of the Sky Clan Research Institute, and Kailan is a descendant of the Sky Clan, the first exploration target should naturally be chosen by her, which can be regarded as a kind of care for her identity.

Who would have thought that this woman doesn't know the heart of a good person and thinks I'm playing some conspiracy!

Stop making trouble, okay?

I have nothing to do with my fiancée. What kind of conspiracy is this?

Seeing that my tone was strong and my attitude was sincere, she watched me for a few seconds, rolled her eyes a few times, and then she said, "Let's start from the nearest one."

The ruins of the building she was pointing to had long been dilapidated, with only two walls remaining, and even the roof was missing. There was no need to go inside to see, standing outside the house could see everything inside - unless it was dark. Door secret room.

Sighing, I took the lead in stepping into the broken house, looking around, groping around, knocking on the walls and smashing on the ground.

Leaning on the only standing door frame, Kailan shifted his gaze from the mechanical bird on his shoulder to me, and said with a smile: "I understand you groping and tapping on the ground, but why do you want to Knock on the wall? There are only two lonely walls left, and the walls are so thin, you don’t think there can be any mechanism hidden inside, do you?”

"Whether it is hidden or not can only be known after testing."

As I said that, I pulled out my Odachi, focused my killing intent, and aimed at the two walls with a few extremely fierce swords.

Although this wall is very thin, it is only a fraction of the current wall, but it is very strong. The feeling of cutting on it is not much different from the tactile feedback given to me when cutting stones.

In other words, the wall is as hard as a stone.

"Not bad, it's pretty hard." I praised, and used my strength again to cut out a square half a meter long and half a wide from the solid wall, and handed it to the expeller.

Kailan on the side looked a little dazed. After a while, she said: "You don't want to cut down the wall and move it, do you?"

"Yes." I nodded: "These walls are of a type I have never seen or heard of. Although they are thinner, their hardness is much greater than today's walls. If they can be If the components are analyzed and copied and purified, I think the dwarfs' architectural standards will be raised to a higher level."

"You can really think about your father-in-law!" Kailan's tone was a bit jealous.

"I just want to think more about my family, but I don't have any personal feelings of favoritism."

"Uh-huh~ Is that really the case?" Kailan smiled like a little fox.

"What do you think?" I asked back: "If I was really biased, I wouldn't have accompanied you here to take risks. But don't think that my purpose is just to possess the technology of the Sky Clan people. In fact, I hope Through this trip, you can find a true sense of belonging that belongs to you, and let you understand that as a Tian Clan member, you are not alone, because there are still many Tian Clan people who left behind, and they are accompanied by the essence of technology that has been condensed to the extreme. With you."

Before he finished speaking, there was a crisp click, and then the ground of the entire house began to tremble, as if he was in an aftershock.

"What's going on?" Kailan quickly left the door frame and ran to me in a few steps, with a look of horror on his face.
