"Relic No. 4 is the first choice."

Li Kuang gave his answer, which made Qin Jinnian stunned for a moment.

remains?

"I'd like to hear more about it."

Li Kuang really knew everything and he began to explain it in detail immediately.

As he described, Qin Jinnian slowly understood what the so-called "ruins" were.

In simple terms, relics should be similar to the black market, but the difference is... relics are fixed.

The black market in the city has no fixed entrance or exit locations, and the black substance inside seems to be constantly flowing.

Even after every blood moon night, some black markets would disappear and new ones would appear...

But 'Relics' is different.

The 'relic' is a completely stable 'black market' with fixed entrances and exits.

At the same time, one thing that is different from the 'black market' is that... the 'ruins' are very dangerous.

There are not only a large number of 'monsters' inside. There is also something even more dangerous... the 'Abyss Mist'! "The Abyss Mist is a very scary thing. Not only is the vision greatly limited inside, like me, I can only see 50 meters at most, and the rest is just a dark fog. More importantly, there is also a strong mental pollution inside... If you stay there for a long time, it is easy to make people crazy, and in serious cases, even crazy forever."

"The area of ​​the ruins is usually quite large, and there are a large number of monsters deep inside... The monsters inside are no different from the monsters outside, and they are very scary."

Li Kuang described the horror of the "ruins" very seriously.

Then he added: "There are a total of nine ruins that have been discovered that are relatively close to our Canglan City."

“The Night’s Watch and the military once made great efforts to occupy these ruins… but in the end, they all came out.”

"Because the Abyss Mist is something that cannot be dealt with, no one can survive in it for too long. So since that large-scale attack on a ruins, I heard that nearly 10,000 people died... they have never attacked other ruins on a large scale again."

"But from time to time, I still go in, because there are some very precious abyss materials in the ruins..."

Qin Jinnian was surprised to hear this: "There are still abyss materials?"

"Well, there are rumors that the ruins are likely to be connected to the shallow abyss... but whether it is true or not... only the Night Watchmen and military brass who have actually entered the depths know."

Qin Jinnian nodded, and then said: "According to what you said, the ruins are so dangerous, why do you think it is a good place to trade?"

"The ruins are very similar to the 'black market', and surprisingly... the guide to the 'black market' also works in the 'ruins'."

"There are nine ruins in total, most of which are quite dangerous and have terrifying monsters."

"But Ruins No. 4 is the one that the Night's Watch and the military attacked last time. The monsters inside have basically been cleared out, leaving only the Abyss Mist."

"And the entrance is fixed... Third Master, if you want to trade with the other party, both of you can enter from the same entrance at the same time. After completing the transaction, you can let the other party leave, and then choose a direction to go deeper into the ruins. With the abyss fog, the other party will not be able to find you... After you have dealt with the traded items, you can easily find the way out with the guide... Isn't it extremely safe?"

At this point, Li Kuang also laughed: "To be honest, we occasionally have some transactions that are not easy to show in public... Basically, we choose to do it in Ruins No. 4... There are dozens of entrances to Ruins No. 4, and it is generally not so easy to be bumped into. Even if bumped into, most people are still relatively tacit and will leave on their own... Of course, there are exceptions for those who have other thoughts. However... With the combat power of the Third Master, if someone really has any ideas, it should be seeking death, right?"

Li Kuang said with a smile.

Qin Jinnian suddenly realized, no wonder he was so experienced, it turned out he did this often.

And thinking about it more carefully, according to what Li Kuang said, Ruins No. 4 really meets his requirements.

"How do I get to Ruins No. 4?"

In the end, Qin Jinnian decided to conduct an on-site inspection to see the situation first.

"I have a map of the ruins here. I'll send it to you."

Li Kuang immediately sent a map to Qin Jinnian using his mobile phone.

The two of them became friends because of their own family affairs.

Qin Jinnian did not refuse. He looked down at the map and found that ruins No. 4 was quite far from here.

"Oh, Third Master, to enter the ruins, you need to prepare two passes. I wonder if you have prepared them? If not, I have a few here."

Li Kuang said hurriedly again.

Although the entrance to the ruins is fixed, it still requires the help of a guide to open it.

Qin Jinnian was stunned for a moment. He really didn't expect this.

The Eternal Guide is not with the original body. After all, it is just a clone and will disappear when the time comes. It is naturally inconvenient to carry some precious and important things.

I didn't refuse at the moment and just said thank you.

Li Kuang asked someone to hand over two passes.

Qin Jinnian said he wanted to give money, but Li Kuang quickly refused, saying that it was just a small amount and not worth mentioning.

Qin Jinnian thought about it, didn't insist, nodded, and left.

Li Kuang quickly stood up and said goodbye with a smile.

After bidding farewell to Li Kuang, Qin Jinnian looked at the map and flew to the location marked on the map.

Ruins No. 4 is hundreds of kilometers away from the current location, but for Qin Jinnian, this is nothing. After all, it is flying.

Just half an hour later, he arrived at the place marked on the map.

Looking up, there was an abandoned city in front of me, which should be a city from 500 years ago. The buildings in this city had long collapsed, and the ruins were covered with weeds. There were some monsters wandering in the ruins, occasionally making roars.

A large number of abandoned vehicles have been corroded to the point that only some outlines remain, and they are overgrown with weeds.

There are deep pits on the ground and cracks on the edges of some collapsed buildings... It can be seen that some major battles have taken place here, and even after many years of trials and tribulations, the traces are still there.

But Qin Jinnian had seen some cities like this outside the Iron Dome, so he didn't care. After taking a look, he took out a pass and gently crushed it.

Suddenly, in his eyes, a wisp of black mist extended out, floating and falling into the ruins below.

Looking at the normal ruins in front of him, Qin Jinnian suddenly had an idea.

Directly open the dark pupil that was previously closed.

The next moment, the world in front of him suddenly changed! The various lines that had disappeared in the sky reappeared, and at the same time, a world shrouded in darkness appeared above the ruins that had been sunny just a moment ago...

It looks exactly like the black market I saw for the first time.

Looking up from high in the sky, the ruins in front seemed to be completely covered by the black fog, and the area was much larger than the black market he visited last time!

The black color should also be much thicker.

Qin Jinnian's expression was slightly moved, but after a moment's silence, he decided to enter the No. 4 ruins first to take a look.

The next moment he moved, following the black fog revealed by the guide, and fell into the ruins.

Then he saw the black fog disappear into a pitch-black portal… and only he could see this portal.

Just landed.

Suddenly a roar was heard, and the next moment, several figures rushed out like ghosts, rushing towards Qin Jinnian to attack.

The speed is extremely fast.

Puff puff!

“Ahhh!!!”

A few shrill screams.

Only then did they see that the creatures that attacked them were several monsters that looked like dogs or wolves. They were very large, up to three or four meters long.

But at this moment, their slender, muscular bodies were pierced by several shadow spikes and were directly suspended in mid-air. Blood dripped down.

But even though their bodies were pierced, they were not completely dead. They were still struggling frantically, making "Ahhhh" sounds, trying to break free.

It can be seen that their vitality is extremely tenacious.

But unfortunately, the person they met was Qin Jinnian.

Qin Jinnian's expression didn't even change. The parts of the shadow thorns that pierced their bodies softened, and instantly strangled their necks and heads. The next moment, they twisted hard.

With a few crisp crackling sounds, all the bones in their bodies, especially their necks, were broken.

He could no longer make any sound, only his body was still twitching. But after about ten seconds, his body became motionless and he was completely dead.

Anyway, it's delivered to my doorstep, so I might as well eat it. Qin Jinnian thought about it, and the shadows melted, and their bodies fell from the sky.

The Shadow Devourer was activated immediately, and the corpses sank into the black shadows.

After swallowing all the corpses, Qin Jinnian raised his eyebrows.

Each of the five corpses actually brought him more than 700 attribute points.

This means that these monsters are at least level 4 to 5! An ordinary level 5 super warrior would have a hard time dealing with even one.

But in front of Qin Jinnian, they were killed instantly.

This was just a small episode and Qin Jinnian didn't care about it. Looking at the dark portal in front of him, he crushed the pass in his hand.

Suddenly, a large amount of black fog surged along the road and rushed into the gate, causing the "gate" to open.

A dark world appeared in front of Qin Jinnian.

Qin Jinnian walked in with style...

The sun is shining brightly in the outside world, but inside this world, it is dark.

After entering, Qin Jinnian saw tall buildings.

But these tall buildings are obviously uninhabited and cold.

His vision was not obscured by the dark fog.

Qin Jinnian had known this for a long time.

He is no longer the rookie who had just traveled through time three months ago and knew nothing about the extraordinary.

For example, he later learned that on the night of the blood moon, abyss fog would appear all over the world. Under normal circumstances, ordinary people could only see a few dozen meters away, and the rest of the place was covered in fog.

But he saw it very clearly on the night of the blood moon three months ago, so he knew at that time that it was because of the dark pupil.

After all, Dark Eyes even made it clear in the description… 'Your gaze can see through the mist of the Shadow World'.

So he was not surprised at all that he could see very far at this moment.

The world was silent. After thinking for a while, he suddenly had an idea. His remote viewing perspective rose into the air and he could see through things directly.

Suddenly, everything within a three-kilometer radius, including tall buildings, became transparent and came into his sight. (It was ignored before, but now it was still calculated according to the ability of the clone.) This discovery made Qin Jinnian's eyes light up.

Obviously, when the shadow body reaches level 3, not only does it increase the number of clones from one to four, but it also strengthens the clones' abilities.

Previously, the clone's ability was only half of the original. According to that calculation, the original could see five kilometers using remote viewing, while the clone could only see two and a half kilometers. But now, it is almost three kilometers.

In other words…

From 50% to 60%? This is undoubtedly another huge improvement! If you think about it this way, the improvement of the shadow body's combat power to the main body seems a bit scary.

Maybe the improvement to the upper limit is not that big...but the improvement to the offensive range is quite terrifying.

After all, I can spread out five kilometers at once, which means the diameter can reach ten kilometers.

As for the four clones, as long as they are within three kilometers outside the main body's maximum attack range, they can use the same ability to spread the controlled shadow...that is another range of six kilometers in diameter.

One after another like this...

Four clones can connect a narrow area up to 24 kilometers long and 3 kilometers wide? And in this area, Qin Jinnian can use the "shadow domain" to achieve full coverage? After all, they are all the same consciousness.

After this calculation, even Qin Jinnian himself was a little scared.

If this shadow body continues to rise... and the shadow control continues to rise... I dare not say that the entire world will be covered by the 'shadow domain'.

But covering an equator…

It seems to be just around the corner...

After all, the equator is only about 40,000 kilometers long...

What is this concept? Qin Jinnian was shocked by the sudden thought.

After a long while, he let out a sigh and shook his head.

Don’t think too much about it for now. For now, let’s take a look at the situation of the ruins first.

Thinking of this, he put away his distracting thoughts and looked around carefully.

Then, he discovered that in this seemingly empty world, some figures had indeed appeared...

They are all super warriors, and they are conducting some unknown transactions here.

Some are prohibited items, while others are just ordinary but relatively precious extraordinary materials.

The situation in many places is tense, and people are proceeding very cautiously and on guard against each other.

Qin Jinnian watched for a while but didn't intend to disturb them.

After thinking for a while, he looked into the depths...

The Night Watch and the military had come here for a great battle once. According to Li Kuang, there were many monsters in the ruins, but they were all cleared out.

But Li Kuang said that there were rumors speculating that the depths of the ruins might be connected to a shallow abyss... This made him curious.

So he decided to explore what the ruins were all about.

Is there really some shallow abyss deep inside it?

Thinking of this, Qin Jinnian did not hesitate. He moved his body, and huge black wings spread out. He broke through the air and went deep into the ruins.

Hidden in the mist of the abyss, no one could see his figure...
