Chapter 162: Epochal Ruins! Three Large Organizations!
Seeing Link’s firm eyes, Yang Xuerou could only nod her head in the end and stopped advising him. Perhaps, it is exactly this persistence and fearlessness that created this young man in front of me.
“I understand. By the way, these past few days, Lu Da led some researchers and made some practical props based on the research data you brought back. Remember to bring these props tomorrow when leaving.”
Yang Xuerou clapped her hands while talking, and two subordinates carried a large box up the city wall.
“The progress is pretty good.” Link smiled.
In Unfallen City, there was a special research institute called the Research Department, which mainly engaged in the research and development of equipment and some special items. The Research Department’s creation was also a result of Link’s doing.
Although many electrical appliances had lost their function due to changes in the world’s nomological rules when the apocalypse descended, it didn’t mean that mankind’s study and development of science and technology were in vain.
At this stage, the Research Department was researching how to combine the still usable human technologies with magic.
“What good stuff is there?” Luo Xinghe looked at the box expectantly.
Xue Linglong, Qiao Ruowei, and the others also cast their gazes over.
The box was soon opened. There were a few weapons inside, as well as a wristband-like bracelet and things that looked like grenades.
At a glance, Link could tell that all these items were aberrated weapons. However, they had all been purified and wouldn’t cause terrifying pollution to humans. Relatively speaking, these weapons’ power was reduced due to being purified, but the burden on their users would also be much smaller.
Link casually picked up a pitch-black spear and saw that it was covered with mysterious lines that looked like dragon scales. This weapon had a domineering appearance, and the spear’s sharp tip was spat out from the dragon’s mouth!
Under the sun’s sunshine, a black light circled the spear. Its appearance truly wasn’t bad, and it was Gold-grade at least. Just nice—it was suitable for Xue Linglong’s usage after he blessed it.
Two long blades and a bow were also inside, and all of them exuded awe-inspiring auras!
“These weapons’ materials were all taken from aberrated monsters. They are more powerful than ordinary weapons.” As she said this, Yang Xuerou took out the wristband-like bracelets in the box and distributed them to everyone.
A picture of a sword breaking through the sky was engraved on the bracelets, looking domineering and awe-inspiring. The overall design also carried a bit of the cyberpunk style.
“This is for communication; a spell formation is engraved within it. It can also be used to check the time. Most of the communication methods are invalid now. With this, your operations will be more convenient.”
As Yang Xuerou injected magic power into the bracelet, a light screen appeared above the top of the bracelet, displaying the current time and everyone’s name on it.
As long as the user controlled it with their mind, they could contact the other bracelets’ owners.
“This thing is indeed not bad.” Zhao Yongkang couldn’t help but praise the bracelets.
“Sister Yang, are these grenades? Hasn’t most of the technology-type weapons become unusable?” Luo Xinghe asked.
Yang Xuerou took out a grenade and spoke with a smile. “These grenades are made of special materials, and spell formations are also engraved inside. As one-time consumables, they store a large amount of energy inside. Although they aren’t as powerful as a Forbidden Curse, they can also cause damage to Stage Four powerhouses.”
As she spoke, she activated a grenade and threw it out of the city!
They heard a loud explosion, which was followed by flying sand and rocks. A terrifying, deep pit also appeared on the ground, and electric currents were flashing around it—which were quite powerful too.
“This one can paralyze and shock the enemy. In addition, there are smoke bombs and incendiary bombs. But since they are made of special materials, the number of grenades made isn’t high. If it’s to equip the five of you, each person can get ten of such grenades.”
Everyone nodded when they heard this, and they exclaimed with praise.
If this thing was suddenly used in a battle, it could definitely surprise the enemy. No matter how poor the result was, it could still disrupt the opponent and create opportunities for them!
Link also said that they weren’t bad.
Although these pieces of equipment weren’t of much use to Link, they were very suitable for Xue Linglong and the others.
With these items—coupled with Xue Linglong and the others’ extremely outstanding combat power among Stage Four players—they would also be able to pose a threat to Stage Five Star-rank powerhouses!
This would undoubtedly make Link more confident in dealing with the dangers that might exist in the Epochal Ruins.
…
At the same time, Bright Sun City.
A towering city wall stood here. This was also a human home city that had won the siege war, and the light of Order shrouded it.
In the magnificent and wide City Master’s Hall.
A group of Temple of Light Elders gathered together and respectfully stood in the hall.
Ou Mingcheng, the Temple of Light’s Lord, sat high on the City Master’s throne. His facial features were cold and hard, seeming as if they were carved using a knife or axe. He looked very majestic, giving people a feeling of majesty.
A middle-aged Elder said in a deep voice, “Lord, by now, many forces are gathered in the wilderness to the south of Unfallen City. It’s said that there are relics from the previous era in the Forest of Darkness’s depths. All of these factions want to get a share of it.”
“And after we checked the ancient books handed down, there are also sporadic records in this regard. The news should be true.”
“Oh,” Ou Mingcheng responded insipidly, and a meaningful smile flashed across his majestic eyes. “Which factions are involved?”
“Powerhouses from Quicksand City, Huge Deer City, Sword Weapon City, Colored Glaze Fortress, and other cities are involved. However, these cities should’ve only been instigated and rushed over upon hearing the news. The ones who spread the news to complicate the situation should be the factions behind these cities.”
“According to the information obtained by the spies, it can be preliminarily determined that there are three large organizations—Martial God Hall, Ancient Martial Alliance, and Evil Sect.”
Upon hearing these large organizations’ names, Ou Mingcheng’s eyes flashed obscurely, and he slowly said, “It’s really lively.”
The Temple of Light was also a faction with a rich heritage and long history. It had many ancient books and secrets. Before the apocalypse descended, they had already expected and prepared for it.
After the apocalyptic world descended, the Temple of Light actively built intelligence channels and sent several elite teams to explore the surrounding areas.
Ou Mingcheng was no stranger to these three factions.
Martial God Hall was an organization that believed in Chinese gods, and it was said that ancient Qi Refiners were even among them.
Ancient Martial Alliance was an organization co-founded by a group of ancient martial art inheritors. Among them were many powerhouses, most of whom excelled in melee combat.
Compared with the other two large organizations, Evil Sect appeared to be more strange and heterogeneous. Most of its members used various kinds of evil methods—very unpredictable and hard to defend against. It was akin to a demonic organization.
These three factions could all be called giants on the land of the Chinese!
After the apocalypse descended, they were like fish in the water because most of their members had awakened hidden professions. They quickly adapted to the new world, and not a single one of them was easy to get along with!
Some of them even controlled more than one human home city secretly!
These powerful factions had all taken part in the event this time. Although they didn’t appear openly, a terrifying storm was still brewing!
The Elder spoke again. “Lord, should we also go to the Forest of Darkness and contend for the Epochal Ruins?”
