Chapter 91

Gorman's battle may last for quite some time.

According to Jin Qidong's original words, it is not surprising that it can be as short as two or three days, and it can be as much as one week. He needs to provide the former with energy to survive during this period and observe his physiological state at any time, without having a place or the heart to entertain Lu Jing and others.

Realizing that forcibly staying in the clinic is not only not helpful, but it may attract the attention of others around you because of the movements when there are too many people entering and leaving.

Besides, Gorman is one of the few "black and white" celebrities on the entire Anling Island. If someone finds it here, no one can save it. It is the same whether Lu Jing and his group are there or not.

Therefore, after asking them to contact them at any time if they need help, Lu Jing and his group did not stay in the Jin Clinic for too long. They just left a voice transmission conch and returned to Bianlan Street from the back door.

Lu Jing was not in a hurry to go to Glens's house. It was noon soon. The three of them were about to eat outside before going over. He didn't want to visit others while they were having lunch, and he might even be treated as a free meal.

The three of them walked along the street and chatted.

The bright sunshine crossed the rooftop of the building on the right and landed on the street on their side. In conjunction with the already refreshing breeze of autumn, even the chaotic thoughts caused by the will through the space through the potion were obviously relieved.

The bustling crowd heard bursts of laughter and joy, mixed with the sound of lightness floating from somewhere.

Liuli ran back and forth around the street, sometimes standing on the bench and flower beds, smelling the fragrance of flowers in the air, sometimes shuttled back and forth between Lu Jing's legs, jumping and rubbing his trouser legs, waiting for the latter to bend over and hold it in his arms and then jumped out again, "sucking" twice.

Xu Zhuo looked through the travel guide on Anling Island as usual, looked at the comments on various restaurants above, and asked about the tastes of the other two people from time to time. Fu Ju, beside him, drove a painting book bought in a street shop with his left hand, and held a pencil in his right hand, and quickly outlined some lines on the drawing paper.

"The street lights in the Lost World are made of metal, and the top should be glass lampshades, such as gas lamps. I didn't observe carefully. There are still buildings, which are basically not from the Shuoming Dynasty... No, the distance between buildings is a little narrower, and there are towers, not the octagonal pagoda we have here, but from cylinders."

Lu Jing looked at the image on the painting book, curled his lips, and corrected the words. Fu Ju pulled the paper, drew another cylinder and added eaves to the surroundings.

"If you don't have these corners, you're just a cylinder, and then you can use it to put things on the top. That thing looks like a turret..."

"Isn't that a watchtower?"

A cannon was drawn on the tower. Fu Ju suddenly turned his head and asked,

"What kind of city will build such fortifications between streets that should appear on the front line, are you mistaken?"

"Only God knows, in short, that city is very strange... In fact, compared to this kind of fortification, I am more curious about why Gorman was able to come to it after communicating his own bloodline. Is it a city that really exists in a certain place or is it just a product of thoughts? This is more peculiar than the 'palace' I met on Qingle Island before, and I also felt something extremely unusual in it."

With his hands wrapped in his pockets, Lu Jing recalled what he had seen and heard in the lost world before, shrugged his shoulders, and glanced at a tall beauty not far away, and continued to say,

"There are also scarlet silk threads that connect those monsters, in which I can't even summon water flow. What is their energy source?"

"Maybe it is a secret realm or an ancient ruin?"

Turning the travel guide in his hand to a certain page and handing it to Lu Jing, Xu Zhuo expressed his opinion.

"This roasted lamb leg looks pretty good, just this one...what is the ancient ruins?"

Staring at the introduction of the paper with a full range of colors and smells, Lu Jing swallowed and asked without looking back.

"The city we entered just now has been obviously abandoned for a long time. Judging from the degree of damage to the building, it is definitely not something that can be achieved in ten or twenty years. In addition, some mysterious forces are involved in the city, which is very consistent with the description of ancient ruins in some books. The ruins I am talking about here are not left by our era, but from the last era, that is, the Ember Era."

Xu Zhuo's words quickly reminded Lu Jing of some classics about the history of the Wuyin Sea that he had read some time ago to pass the time.

All of these books inevitably mention a noun in Lu Jing's words just now: Ember Age!

Why call it an ember?

Because although the embers have no meaning to survive, they can still transmit fire!

Legend has it that before a disaster that spreads all over the world, this world was not a vast ocean, and the continent was the center of this world.

At that time, the exchanges between human countries were not as difficult as they are now, and even a unified large empire appeared for a time. The process of establishing the empire was long turned into scattered fragments in the long river of history, but there is no doubt that the human population has developed greatly as a result.

Regardless of the rest, what has been recognized by all countries now is that the human technological level during the Ember Age has reached a level that is almost a miracle to the current people.

The simplest example of this is a strange thing that is spread throughout the vast sea, with different functions but without exception being sought after by countless people.

The treasure hunt compass in Lu Jing’s hand and the digital encoding on the air balloon are the best proof, and the source of these things is the ancient ruins that have been preserved from the Ember Age to this day!

There is almost a consensus on whether it is the expedition teams of governments around the world or the private fleets that spontaneously form sea adventures.

Ancient ruins are equivalent to treasures!

As long as you can find one, you will basically start without worrying about eating and drinking for the rest of your life. If you accidentally discover strange things or technology left by the Ember Age, you can get the benefits... The biotechnology owned by Blue Star Conch Group, which is now a giant in the communications industry, really think they developed it themselves?

Of course, the premise of all this is to be able to keep this treasure.

Back to the point, Xu Zhuo's reminder made Lu Jing quickly realize that the ancient ruins may be the best explanation of the details of the lost world they saw.

Ancient buildings and advanced technology can only be seen in ancient ruins!

"If the blood in the body of a beast-like patient like Gorman comes from that ancient ruin... Do you still remember what Jin Qidong said? The ancient ruins are hidden in the ruins. It is a remnant left by the divine clone. For example, this kind of ruins, is the Holy Blood Sect on Anling Island really qualified to master it?"

As the problem deepens, Lu Jing's mind is becoming more and more confused. You should know that any ancient ruin represents huge interests. Once discovered, the outcome will basically fall into the hands of the country where the ruins are located, let alone such special ruins.

"And this travel guide clearly states that the Holy Blood Cult is the sect with the largest number of believers on Anling Island... To a certain extent, they already dominate the religious community of Anling Island, and it would be fine if they didn't find a way to consolidate their reputation. Why did they think of training so many hunters through methods that are almost cult-like, or if they know that many of those people are only temporarily and must fall into madness after a period of time."

"No, I don't think the Holy Blood Cult has mastered that ruin. If they could enter and exit at will, wouldn't Gorman go in and die alone?"

Fu Ju asked without raising his head and perfecting the details about the lost world in the painting book.

"Tsk, your words make sense... We know too little information now. The only thing that is certain is that the Holy Blood Sect and the Governor of Anling Island should have a close relationship. The Artifact Refiner Association where Glens is located has a good status on Anling Island and has daily contacts with the government. Perhaps we can learn about this sect through him later."

If it were other things, Lu Jing might not have the intention to investigate, and it happened that it involved the upgrade issue of the Sea Guardian. It would be fake to say that he did not want to take his core card further, but this process is probably very difficult.

As for why Lu Jing is so sure that the Holy Blood Sect is related to the Governor's Office on Anling Island.

The reason is very simple.

Earlier, Kim Ki-dong burned the information in front of Gorman, naturally not because he was itchy for a moment.

Compared to Gorman, Kim Ki-dong obviously has a more thorough understanding of this matter.

If Gorman lost in the confrontation with the lost world, then this information would not be of any use even if it was a hundred times detailed, because in many incidents that have occurred in recent times, the Governor's Office of Anling Island has been on the side of the Holy Blood Sect from beginning to end, and they would not care about evidence from criminals at all.

In contrast, if Gorman successfully resolves his target, the reliance of the Holy Blood Sect in establishing the Sect will collapse. Once they have no things in their hands that can threaten the hunters, this information will not be available at that time.

Because the government does not take action, the resurrected hunters will allow some people within the Holy Blood Sect to understand what the real hell on earth is!
