Yiwen closed his eyes and slowly consumed the information he had just sorted out, then slowly opened his eyes and shook his head regretfully:

"Combining the final outcome of the Asir people and the battle video I just saw, it seems that their ultimate weaponry still can't defeat Biyana. Even the power of the three combined gems... still can't match the power of the apostles... This It's a pity that such an effort ended in utter futility."

Although gathering the three gemstones is still no match for the power of the apostles, the gap is no longer unreachable.The bronze giant gave Ivan the feeling that it was not even the Immortal King, but after he was equipped with the Judgment Gloves, he could barely fight the apostle.

If it's me... Maybe it's a [-]/[-] split with the apostle!

Based on this situation, Yiwen is even more determined to collect the other two gems, trying to restore the new Judgment Gloves.

Chapter 237 Death Relic

Regarding the traces of the other two gemstones, there is no record in the information of the Tree of Wisdom. It is estimated that the Ancient Menesians did a good job of keeping secrets and did not leak any information.This attitude of strictly prohibiting work also indirectly deceived their descendants, so that when Ivan wanted to collect gems, he had no clue at all.

But there is one thing that he can be sure of - the soul gem and energy gem are indeed staying on Heberen.

Because the Asa survivors said that they can often feel the resonance of gems: the three sacred stones can only resonate if they are not far apart, so there is a high probability that the soul gems and energy gems will remain in Heberon star.

It's a pity that the two gems can't resonate together, otherwise, Yiwen can find the other two gems as long as he wanders around the world with the time and space gems.

But it doesn't matter.

With the current exploration efforts, all the ruins of Hyperion will be explored in less than 10 years. Are you afraid that you won't find two gems by then?

……

In many cases, a certain attitude adopted by the government can easily be passed on to the public.

The same is true for the super-engineering of the relics exploration this time. Under such a mobilizing exploration and excavation, the folks have also been aroused a similar atmosphere.Many rich men who are collectors like to pay high prices to buy one or two pieces from the collection of ancient ruins as family heirlooms, or bury them in the cemetery to accompany them to sleep forever.

As the saying goes, where there is demand, there is a market. The needs of these wealthy people have supported a group in disguise: a criminal group specializing in underground exploration and searching for ancient ruins.

In the underground world, these people are called rangers or explorers, which is a profession with both risks and benefits; they usually act in small groups, and have some professional exploration knowledge, and can learn from the specific knowledge of mechanical engineers. During the operation, the location of the ancient ruins was inferred.

Once the ancient ruins that have not been excavated are found, the ranger will take action on the ruins before the official action, take some relatively light things, and then bring them back to the black market and sell them to wealthy people in need.

Of course, at best, they only dare to steal unexcavated relics, and these rangers are afraid to avoid any ancient relics that have been discovered by the authorities.After all, the majesty and power of the Sun King are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Even the powerful enemies outside the sky dare not openly make enemies with that majesty. Naturally, these aborigines have to show more humility.

In addition to making money, there are some rangers who don't come here for money. These people are all strong men with good strength, and money means little to them.The reason why they are willing to do this kind of thing is that they hope to seize some treasures from the ruins to strengthen their strength.

This group of people belonged to the radical faction among rangers. Apart from respecting the rules of the strong, their legal awareness and moral awareness were also weak.Even the respect for the Sun King is based on the law of the jungle.

——You are the strongest person in the world, so we respect you, and we avoid all your territories.But those unowned things, each according to their own ability, first come, first served!

For the rangers who have been on the edge of society for a long time, as long as they can see the hope of improving their strength, they are willing to fight with their lives.As for things such as prohibition laws, they basically treat them as air-if they are caught, they will admit to death, and if they cannot be caught, they will continue to live happily.

one-one-one-one-one

The eastern part of the empire, the land of quicksand.

The afterglow of the setting sun painted the desert a layer of dark red, and the scorching high temperature was slowly subsiding, replaced by a bone-chilling chill.The dim sky that slowly opened covered the entire desert, and the evening glow was fleeting, and the sky receded, and soon fell into darkness completely.

Under the night, the faint fire flickered in the desert, and the green smoke curled up.

Beside the jumping bonfire, three rangers are sitting together, comparing the map to observe the surrounding terrain.

All the members of this small group of rangers are male, and everyone has a certain combat capability. From the perspective of weapon types and equipment, it is also a relatively common combination of melee, long-range, and auxiliary.

The thick bearded man on the left, wearing leather armor, was named Rosen. He used to be the priest of the Temple of Storms. Later, he resigned because he couldn't stand the rules and regulations. Profession.

The thin, long-legged and tall man on the right, with his lips pursed all the time and looking sullen all day long, is Miranda; the former demon hunter suffered from post-war trauma syndrome after the demon disaster , mentally tense all day long, unable to return to a normal life, so he simply became a ranger.

Between the two, sat a silver-haired boy who seemed to be still in puberty. He was covered in a dark robe with some light green patterns on the surface; the dark cloth reflected his skin slightly pale, and the hood So deep that you can barely see the pointy chin.

But a pair of red eyes shone in the depths of the shadows. It was a dangerous and cold light like a beast, and one couldn't help but think of hungry wolves or even more cruel beasts.

"No mistake! We are now at the edge of the ruins! There are still about 24 hours to reach the center of the ruins! By then, there will be a batch of ancient treasures that have been dusty for thousands of years waiting for us to use !” Rosen held the map in his hand and said with confidence.

"Don't be too confident. This so-called treasure map is probably forged by those profiteers. They dare to do anything to make money... It was agreed in advance that if we can't find the ruins tomorrow, we will evacuate here immediately. I hate the desert ...This place always reminds me of the Demonic Disaster Battlefield...Damn Mount Sinai!" Miland seemed not optimistic about this operation, so he kept retreating.

"Rest quickly, this desert is not safe. We must find the ruins before those machines... We don't have much time left." The silver-haired boy fiddled with the bonfire a few times to make the fire burn a bit more vigorously, Then he turned and got into his tent.

……

Before dawn, the ranger trio boarded the desert motorboat and galloped towards the core of the ruins.

The jet of air from the motorboat dragged across the sand, leaving a deep trace.The wind of the desert whizzed and rolled towards him, passing by his ears and turning into a whistling sound; although the daytime in the desert was unbearably hot, it was shiveringly cold at the moment, and the hot air from the corners of his mouth turned into white mist in an instant.

During the silent trek, I don’t know how long it took, the sky was finally slightly bright, and the desert was still stretching endlessly; in the yellowish dust, the cactus trembled with sharp thorns all over its body, and there were a few black shadows under the blue sky. Flying at an astonishing speed - that's a vulture foraging in the desert.

Time passed unknowingly in the desolate wind and sand.

Night had fallen again, and the rangers had been marching eastward for a day and a night; the dunes grew larger and larger, pressing down on them as if to fill the sky.

"According to the markings on the treasure map...the ruins should be around here...we have to look for it! Miranda, I'll give you the steering wheel, and you can help me drive for a while."

Speaking, Rosen handed over the steering wheel to his companion, raised a telescope himself, stood up from the motorboat and looked around.

"It's been said that the treasure map is fake. How could people from hundreds of years know that there are ancient ruins here!? I advise you to give up and get out of this damn desert... I miss the moist air and bath water. "Miland drooped his head feebly, complaining ramblingly.

At this moment, the motorboat slammed to a sudden stop, and plunged into the sand, almost throwing Rosen out.Even though this man was agile, he still hit his head on the steering wheel, causing a big bump on the spot.

"Miland, what the hell are you doing? If you want to go back, you won't kill me, right?" the man roared angrily.

"It's not me...I don't have...the motorboat fell down by itself." Mirand raised his hands innocently and eagerly argued.

"Nonsense! You did it on purpose!" Rosen sneered at his argument.

"Miland didn't lie... In the situation just now, the desert stopped the speedboat. To be precise, there was a force deep in the desert that stopped our speedboat!" Excited, so that the voice is slightly hoarse:

"We found it...the ruins must be nearby!"

As if to confirm his words, the yellow sand near the motorboat boiled like boiling water!

The desert at night was originally silent and boundless, but at this moment, it seemed like the sea under a storm, and there was an uproar—with the motorboat as the center, the sand was churning, and it was just the sand nearby. However, it seemed as if the waves of water were rippling round and round, and the scope of influence rapidly expanded. In the end, the entire desert was surging like boiling water!

Such a strange scene made the three of them hold their breath, and they looked at each other with ecstasy on their faces.

"The treasure map is indeed real, it didn't cost me [-] deben in vain!"

Rosen couldn't help grinning, and at the same time pressed the emergency button, activating the protective device of the motorboat; accompanied by a dizzying burst of disassembly and reassembly, the open motorboat instantly transformed into a light submarine .

During this process, the quicksand sank quickly, and flowed like a vortex into the deepest darkness—as if a huge mouth of an abyss suddenly opened on the ground, swallowing the submarine.

……

Under the desert, the submarine sank about 1500 meters and finally fell into a dark tunnel.

After confirming that the air in the tunnel was non-toxic, the trio restored the submarine to a motorboat and turned on the searchlights.
