Chapter 290: Treasure Hunt

As they spoke, the rings on their hands emitted light at the same time.

"Congratulations, mission accomplished!"

"You will have one hour to search for treasure."

Two lines of text come into view.

Fang Zhixing blinked and said, "Treasure hunting?"

Fan Qiulai smiled happily and said, "We don't work for nothing. We will be rewarded after completing the task."

He tapped the ring on his hand and said, "This reward is that we can go anywhere we want. As long as there is a treasure nearby, the ring will give us a hint."

He stood up and said excitedly, "Hurry up, the time limit is one hour, after which the ring will not give any more prompts."

Fang Zhixing suddenly realized what was happening and asked, "Where are we going to meet in an hour?"

Fan Qiulai waved his hand and said, "When the time comes, the ring will guide us to leave here. There must be more than one exit. It depends on our fate."

Fang Zhixing understood and said, "You go first."

"Then I'll go this way."

Fan Qiulai didn't say anything polite and ran towards the woods on the right.

Fang Zhixing was just about to leave.

Suddenly, Fan Qiulai came back and said with a smile: "I almost forgot, let's touch the rings, so we can contact each other anytime in the future."

Fang Zhixing remembered that Tianyin had said this and stretched out his hand.

The two rings touched each other.

"Let's go!" Fan Qiulai turned and left without saying anything more.

Fang Zhixing glanced at the ring and said to himself, "Fan Qiulai has the power of fire, and his personality is as impatient as fire. He does things in a rush."

He thought to himself and turned back to the villa.

"Is it over?"

The thin dog ran over and asked cautiously, "Hey, where's Fan Qiulai?"

Fang Zhixing rolled his eyes and said, "Are you afraid of him?"

The thin dog's ears drooped down, feeling a little aggrieved, and he said helplessly: "That guy is of the fire element, and the heat wave is overwhelming. I'm not afraid of him, I'm afraid of the heat!"

Fang Zhixing was speechless for a while and briefly explained the situation.

"Treasure hunting, huh? I'm good at that!"

The little dog became excited and kept panting with his tongue sticking out.

As soon as the danger was over, this guy became more energetic.

Fang Zhixing was too lazy to complain, so he waved and said, "I'm tired, please carry me on your back to go treasure hunting."

“…”

The thin dog bared its teeth, unwillingly.

The reason why he carried Fang Zhixing on his back before was because Jun Yao was there.

He wanted to carry a beautiful woman on his back.

You Fang Zhixing, a cheater, don't you have legs? Although Xigou thought about it, he didn't dare to disobey Fang Zhixing, so he gritted his teeth and grew bigger.

Fang Zhixing raised the corner of his mouth and rode on his back.

"Hello~"

He uttered a yo.

Xigou was almost mad and said angrily, "That's enough."

"Hurry up, time is running out..."

Fang Zhixing patted the dog's butt.

The little dog couldn't help feeling ashamed and ran away.

[Go left for seven miles, and you will find a silver vine in the weeds.]

“Got it!”

Fang Zhixing was overjoyed and quickly directed the little dog to run over.

Soon a wasteland came into view, and at first glance, it was overgrown with weeds.

"Silver vine, if I remember correctly, it is a rare flower and herb, its body is like silver, and it can be used to make medicine."

"Rarity: High!"

"Silver vines can also be found in certain Level 4 restricted areas."

Fang Zhixing thought about it.

He had consulted a lot of information before, had rich experience, and mastered a lot of knowledge.

"Silver vine has value, but not much."

Fang Zhixing grasped the Ten Thousand Swords and swung them out.

The sword energy swept across, bringing with it a strong wind! The flowers and plants on the ground were broken and blown away by the strong wind.

In an instant, an old silver vine appeared in sight.

Fang Zhixing cut the root with a knife, pulled up the silver vine and stuffed it into the bag.

"Walk!"

The man and the dog randomly chose a direction and ran away wildly.

[Twelve miles to the right, under the waterfall, there is a crystal bead. ]

"Hey, this crystal bead is a level 4 forging material, right?"

Fang Zhixing was cheered up. If some weapons were inlaid with crystal beads, the power of water attribute would be greatly enhanced.

For example, the "Water-Breaking Sword Technique" of the Shen family, one of the eight major families in Qinghe County.

If the Shen family had a fourth-level sword and it was blessed by a crystal bead, the power of the sword would definitely be further enhanced.

That’s not all.

Fang Zhixing practiced Crazy Blood, and his blood also contained water.

Well, although inlaying the crystal beads into the Ten Thousand Swords cannot improve the grade of the Ten Thousand Swords, it will definitely enhance the power of the Ten Thousand Swords.

"It's OK, take it!"

Fang Zhixing rode the dog and quickly found the waterfall.

He jumped under the waterfall, and against the impact of the waterfall, he touched three crystal beads at the bottom of the water.

If you look closely, you will see that the crystal beads are sparkling, crystal clear and beautiful.

When Fang Zhixing held it in his hand, he felt that his skin was much more moisturized and no longer felt dry.

"Women should really like crystal beads."

Fang Zhixing smiled and put it in his pocket.

They continued running forward.

My luck wasn't very good afterwards. I ran for about a cup of tea but didn't find anything.

"Let's change direction..."

Fang Zhixing curled his lips, ordered the dog to turn around and run towards a deep forest.

With this change, things quickly turned around.

[Walk eight miles to the right, there is a cave with a corpse inside. ]

Fang Zhixing blinked and asked in surprise, "Is the corpse also a treasure?"

The dog transmitted the message: "Maybe there is a treasure on the corpse?"

He pondered for a while and guessed: "That corpse is most likely the remains of a powerful person."

Fang Zhixing also felt that this was a possibility, and couldn't help but look expectant.

The man and the dog ran away, quickly passing through an ancient forest.

After a while, they stopped at the foot of a cliff.

[You are still three meters, two meters away from the cave...]

When Fang Zhixing looked up, he saw a rock wall in front of him with no entrance.

He raised his hand and touched the rock wall, clenched his fist, and hammered it.

Boom! The rock wall cracked and rubble scattered all over the ground.

Then, a dark cave appeared.

The entrance to the cave was a bit small, so Fang Zhixing could only walk in sideways.

After passing through a narrow corridor, the road ahead suddenly opens up.

Fang Zhixing entered a spacious cave with stalactites hanging upside down from the ceiling.

He lit a tinder, illuminated the cave, and looked around.

On a relatively flat wall, lines of words were carved.

At the bottom of the wall, there lay a complete skeleton. The clothes had not yet completely rotted away, and one could vaguely see that it was a green robe.

A long sword was stuck next to the bones, and the hilt and scabbard were covered with a thick layer of dust.

Fang Zhi walked over, raised the tinderbox and looked at the wall first.

The handwriting read: "My name is Chang Jingli, from the Mechanical Empire..."

Fang Zhixing's eyes widened instantly, and he said in shock: "What, Mechanical Empire?!"

Xigou also exclaimed: "Damn, no way, is there a mechanical empire in this world? How come I have never heard of it?"

Fang Zhixing held his breath and continued reading: "Humans are weak and frail, and they are oppressed by the mechanical race. They are suffering terribly. I and a group of like-minded people fought back, but we were too weak and were hunted down by the mechanical race. We were forced to flee into the Level 5 restricted area."

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Xigou was shocked when he heard this. He blinked and said, "From what I heard, there are still humans living in the Mechanical Empire, but the machines are the rulers."

Fang Zhixing nodded and read the next line: "My death is not a pity, but I want to leave a glimmer of hope for the human race.

According to my investigation, the machines are controlled by the celestial beings. When the celestial beings are overcoming the calamity, the decaying aura they release has a strong corrosive effect on living metals. "

Fang Zhixing paused, thinking, "As expected," he said, "Those mechas rusted as soon as they came into contact with the air. It turns out that what they fear is not the air, but the decaying aura of the gods."

Xigou suddenly realized: "Mechas are afraid of celestial beings. No wonder every time the Luo family and the Lu family send people to kill you, the mechas are the first to attack."

Mechas are all younger brothers in front of celestial beings!

Fang Zhixing continued reading: "In the deep sea, there is a mysterious continent. There are celestial beings who have established a huge empire called the Great Zhou Dynasty!"

As soon as these words came out, Fang Zhixing and Xigou looked at each other, feeling as if they were eating a melon.

"Mysterious Continent, Great Zhou Dynasty, they are talking about us!"

The dog was quick-witted and reasoned, "In other words, the Mechanical Empire is on another continent."

Fang Zhixing pondered and said, "From what I heard, our continent is independent and a continent of its own, a bit like Australia."

The dog's curiosity was aroused, and he asked, "Anything else? Read it quickly!"

Fang Zhixing said: "The Great Zhou Dynasty is ruled by heaven and man, and treats humans well. The human race thrives and prospers. It may be the last hope for the human race."

Finished reading! However, this last sentence made Fang Zhixing and Xigou look at each other in bewilderment.

The words "be kind to humans" are simply ironic!

The humans of the Mechanical Empire seem to particularly worship the Great Zhou Dynasty.

But they didn't know what the Great Zhou Dynasty looked like specifically, and only used their imagination to outline the ideal appearance of a human tower.

Fang Zhixing was silent for a moment, and analyzed: "Chang Jingli came from the Mechanical Empire, but he was also able to come to this Level 5 restricted area.

This means that people can enter the same restricted area even if they are separated by two continents.”

Xi Gou Lian said: "In level one to level four restricted areas, we can see the outer contours of the restricted areas with our naked eyes, but the level five restricted area is completely different, as if we have traveled to another world."

Fang Zhixing agreed with this and nodded, saying, "The Level 5 restricted area is like a network platform. People from different regions can log in, or be teleported to this platform."

The dog looked left and right and said, "After all this talk, where is the treasure? Could it be this long sword?"

Fang Zhi walked over, raised the Ten Thousand Swords, hooked the sword guard, and lifted it up.

There was a loud clanging sound!

The sword is unsheathed!

Fang Zhixing's face changed when he found that the long sword was actually broken and was just a broken sword.

"rough!"

The dog was speechless, "You call this a treasure, but no one wants it even if it's trash."

Fang Zhixing frowned slightly, picked up the broken sword, and tried to break it with force.

Crack, crack, crack~ The broken sword was vulnerable to a single blow and broke into pieces, falling to the ground.

Fang Zhixing turned his head, looked at the skeleton on the ground, lifted up his clothes and searched around.

Suddenly, Fang Zhixing made a discovery.

He turned the skeleton's head over and looked at the back of it.

Then I saw a crystal that looked like a diamond, perfectly embedded in the skull.

When Xigou saw the thing, he shuddered suddenly and exclaimed: "Is this thing a brain-computer interface?"

Fang Zhixing couldn't be sure, so he reached out and took the crystal off.

"Whatever this crystal is, put it away first."

Fang Zhixing sighed softly.

The man and the dog walked out of the cave and continued to explore.

"Time is almost up, we have to hurry up..."

Fang Zhixing glanced at the system panel. Conditions 4 and 5 required "Black Jade Lotus" and "Resurrection Grass" respectively.

I'm afraid these two rare and precious herbs are not available in the outside world.

The only hope of finding it is to search in the Level 5 restricted area.

"At least let me find one!"

Fang Zhixing was looking forward to it.

Running...

The thin dog suddenly braked, with its mane standing up, as if facing a powerful enemy.

Fang Zhixing's expression became serious and he looked forward.

Hiss, hiss, hiss~ A creepy sound of a snake spitting out its tongue was heard.

Immediately afterwards, a huge snake head rose up.

A giant snake suddenly crawled out from a low-lying area.

The snake's body is covered with colorful scales and there is a sharp tentacle on its head.

The giant snake was over a hundred meters long. It opened its mouth, showing its fangs, and spewed out pink mist.

"The fog is poisonous!"

The thin dog retreated violently, its body trembling uncontrollably.

The giant snake was obviously a level five alien beast, extremely ferocious and gave him a great sense of oppression.

"Oh, what bad luck..."

Fang Zhixing curled his lips and said in a voice transmission: "No more fighting, run!"

The little dog didn't hesitate at all, turned around and ran away.

Boom!

Suddenly, a muffled thunder was heard.

Accompanied by a twisted and dazzling arc of lightning!

There was a flash of light! As soon as the poor dog turned around, it was hit by lightning on its butt.

The thin dog froze all over, as if struck hard by lightning, and was unable to move for a moment.

Fang Zhixing jumped up quickly and avoided the damage caused by the lightning at the critical moment.

The thin dog fell down with black smoke coming out of it.

Fang Zhixing's eyes turned cold and he stared at the giant snake.

The giant snake slowly raised its head, its tentacles still shining and surrounded by thunder.

Apparently, the giant snake is able to release lightning from its tentacles.

"A level five alien beast, it's really not simple!"

Fang Zhixing took a deep breath.

The next moment, the giant snake pounced over, opened its bloody mouth and bit the thin dog.

It actually wanted to swallow the tiny dog ​​in one gulp.

"Am I being ignored?" Fang Zhixing immediately swung his sword.

Shua! A huge knife shadow fell down.

The giant snake suddenly turned its body and fled away...
