A Sorcerer’s Journey

Chapter 1160: Chapter 1161: Ruins World

”This world is indeed extraordinary.”

At the center of the forehead of the Face of Truth, the Eye of the World continuously blinked.

The world’s insight in Green’s eyes had already surpassed the World Master level. At this moment, to Green, the Ruins World seemed like a scroll unfolded in the Endless Void, with countless rune rules traversing the surface of the scroll.

What caught Green’s attention even more was the large areas of damage along the edge of this scroll, seemingly like burn marks; this was not a complete world.

At the very least, there had been some major incident that thoroughly injured the world’s source.

Due to using the Self-sealing Technique last time, Green had been weak for a long period. Even after a hundred years, no significant foundation was accumulated. Therefore, even though he unlocked the Seven-Colored Rune Seal of the Robe of Appearances, it only released thirty percent of his suppressed power, with no enhancement.

Using the Robe of Appearances, Green continuously approached this mysterious, unknown, and damaged world. With a thump, it was like a crisp musical note as a tiny ripple spread on the surface of the World’s Veil, its runes instinctively protecting this world.

Sizzle!

Compared to the vast world, Green was insignificant. The world-protecting runes seen from afar, seen up close, were formed by countless finer runes traversing inside and outside the World’s Veil in multiple layers.

They were the rules of the world.

Through these rune rules, one could faintly see a land covered with ravines, large meteor craters, and mechanical debris occasionally visible, along with some metallic city ruins hidden between the mountains.

These city ruins were extremely hidden, with buildings mostly made of metal and composite materials, seemingly of quite a high level of intelligent civilization, unlike any ordinary barbarian world.

”Xiahe Civilization? No... no, based on observations of Xiahe Civilization relics in the Tidal World, the building scale is either extremely small and delicate or built for titanic giants. Compared to Xiahe Civilization relics, the civilization here is clearly much more backward.”

Green kept speculating about what secret this world might hold.

”Could it be a hidden large base of the Metal Destroyer Civilization?”

Murmuring to himself, Green gradually blended into the World’s Veil’s rules.

The world rules rotated like a giant vortex around Green’s body, watching as Green gradually sank into the World’s Veil’s rules, silently and seamlessly integrating into this decay-filled ancient and mysterious world.

.......

Within the Ruins World.

Swipe!

The crisp sound wave, processed with noise, had a precise metal device at the bottom, with the upper half a translucent crystal cover. Among the guard robots living outside, this mechanical device floated in defiance of gravity, ten meters above the ground in this not-so-large metallic ruined city after being dropped from the Void Mothership.

The howling wind sounded like a devil’s sob, and the sky was dark and gray, filled with toxic particles. The wind stirred the heavens, continuously rolling.

The city ruin’s metallic buildings stood in rows, showing signs of age. The alloy windows were warped and twisted by compression, the tall metallic chimneys bent by the wind, and the metallic building walls were etched with countless small dents by gravel and sand, along with some ancient giant turret towers.

”Angel, oh, it’s unbelievable that our ancestors, using the Space-Time Wormhole Device, developed the Hua Emperor Quantum Technology here and, after returning to the Great Universe World, defeated Skynet. Without Hua Emperor Quantum Technology, without defeating the Skynet that brought such disaster to the Old Humans, who knows how bad the world would be, maybe we would have been extinct.”

Suddenly, on the crystal glass cover of the mechanical device, a 3D hologram displayed another male new human, who was bragging.

It’s indeed strange; face-to-face communication seemed so cold, like an invisible barrier between people, but conversations via Skynet or metal robots made relationships very harmonious.

”Yes, it’s unbelievable, but we should be grateful that in the end, we humans won and successfully integrated with Skynet, establishing our new era.”

Inside the mechanical device, a woman with smooth body lines smiled at the 3D screen, her slender limbs extremely delicate, with a large head, as thousands of electronic light spots rapidly spun inside the translucent back of her head.

”I really want to become a Light Brain ID right now, to make the indigenous species feel our greatness, to let all worlds no longer be wild, and to bring a more advanced civilization into life with Hua Emperor Quantum Technology.”

The man was captivated, sunk into a sort of visionary frenzy.

”Mark, I heard a new powerful species has emerged in the new dark map area opened by Skynet, called Wizards. Wizards are stronger than all previous species combined, with a longer history and have established a barbaric ruling regime. Light Brain Players are now experiencing a difficult mainline story.”

Anier sighed towards the 3D hologram: ”Oh, I really fear that those doomsday legends will come true.”

On the 3D hologram, Mark smiled reassuringly.

”Hmph, Angel, don’t mind those alarmists. Those guys should have their second-class citizen status revoked. Skynet has the strongest computing and coordination abilities, plus the randomness of Light Brain Players, how could we fail? We’ve connected the Great Universe World with the entire colony as one; those Light Brain Players and Skynet are the brain, the colony is the digestive system, Terminators, Destroyers, and Void Motherships are the fists, and we are the new cells, the hope of new humans, sizzle sizzle...”

The 3D hologram suddenly blurred briefly and then restored, with Angel slightly panicked and Mark seeming comforting.

”It’s just how things are here, get used to it. The Old Humans who came through the wormhole set up many signal jammers to fight Skynet. Hahaha, without that wormhole device, maybe we would have... sizzle sizzle...”

The 3D hologram turned into a complete static signal.

People had gotten used to communicating with the outside through Skynet, and now losing Skynet, Angel felt almost like suffering from claustrophobia, incredibly frantic.

”Little YY!”

Following Angel’s call, a robot outside sensed it and approached, speaking through the crystal glass screen: ”ID SXY1378438726 second-class citizen, pleased to serve you, what can I help you with?”

”Why is there no Skynet signal here, I... Ah! What’s that?”

Suddenly, Angel noticed a fleeting dark shadow on the ground.

Without Skynet’s systematic detailed explanations or prompts, Angel was filled with fear of the unknown.

”No need to panic; a large number of native Mutant Beasts inhabit the Tramay Ancient World. The Old Humans once used them as food to reproduce and develop in this world. Understanding them is also part of your task to experience the glory of Hua Emperor Quantum Technology ancestors.”

Still shaking, Angel forced herself to endure the torment of having no Skynet connection, like a single cell isolated from the body. That feeling of isolation made every breath feel maddening.
