As the war weapon of the angels, the floating city is of course the most important thing for the demi-humans. Considering that the "Lucky Eye" is still sitting there, Lu Ning cannot quietly touch it with his own ability.
In terms of combat, she is not afraid of any hero, but when it comes to reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance, she is not yet capable of overpowering an investigation expert. However, Jun Ying obviously took this into consideration and sent Chang Zaihao and Liuye over to Lu Ning.
These two people did not serve as commanders of the army like Lu Ning and Ling Xiaochen. Chang Zaihao still stayed in the research institute. He could already replace many of Yu Wenbin's tasks in design and manufacturing, while Liuye was assigned to take charge of it. Logistics, in cooperation with Sita, I heard that good progress has also been made in soil pollution control and breeding.
Lu Ning was a little curious about how the two of them could help.
"Hey, I heard that you encountered some trouble here?" Chang Zaihao greeted Lu Ning with a smile. He has completely adapted to this world and has become good friends with many people in the institute. The level is considered to be the highest among the four.
"Lucky Eye, you should also be able to see her information. Among the two heroes currently stationed in the floating city, I have fought with Lixila. He is not my opponent. The problem is Lucky Eye Moss's detection ability It's so powerful, I don't have any reliable counter-reconnaissance method to bypass her." Lu Ning said, looking at the two of them to see if you have any good ideas.
"Find a way to earn her out?" Chang Zaihao touched his chin, "Then you went in and stabbed Lixila, and then everyone took down the floating city side by side?"
"We are an army after all, how can you talk like bandits..." Liuye twitched the corner of his mouth, "If that Moss's detection ability is really that strong, anyone who breaks in will be noticed, then there are two It’s better to find a way.”
"Which two types?" Lu Ning asked.
"Use a long-range strike that exceeds her detection range, or directly break through using a method that exceeds her reaction speed."
"Didn't you two come here together to make fun of each other?" Lu Ning looked at the two people, "Jun Ying sent you here with a bad idea?"
"She just asked us to come and help you..." Liuye shrugged.
"Wait, wait." Chang Zaihao raised his hand, "You mean Jun Ying asked us to come over to help you? Did you say that clearly?"
"Of course, I mentioned to her the biggest problem that may be encountered in the floating city, and she said that she would let you two come over soon, and you can help me."
Chang Zaihao's expression twisted, and then he glanced at Liuye.
"Does Jun Ying even know what research we are doing in private?"
"It looks like it is. This is a blow to both of us." Liuye looked helpless.
Lu Ning immediately understood what was going on: "You two...are you really doing some research on your own?"
"Isn't it like following the instructor in everything and not earning too many points in the end? You have also been promoted all the way. It is normal for tourists to leave some backup for themselves." Chang Zaihao said matter-of-factly, "We are It’s not that I want to rebel, at most I just want to leave something for myself.”
"Then maybe Jun Ying doesn't care what you think at all." Lu Ning said.
"It's also possible." Liuye nodded.
According to Lu Ning's opinion, Jun Ying might just know about this, so he drove the two of them over this time just because he thought it would be useful. She didn't know why, but she always felt that if Jun Ying really cared about this kind of thing, these two people wouldn't be able to stand in front of her properly.
"Let's get back to the point, can you help me?" Lu Ning asked.
"Help, just give it a try." Chang Zaihao said simply.
These two people are not mediocre, and since Yu Wenbin adopts a strategy of teaching students in accordance with their aptitude, they have already mastered the knowledge of their own research routes. Chang Zaihao took out a set of individual combat armor, while Liuye took out a bottle of green-looking potion.
"You will never guess how we use this thing." Chang Zaihao said confidently, "With the two of us working together, there won't be any obstacles for you to go to the floating city."
"Introduction?"
"This set of armor is the 'self-replicating machine' I researched." Chang Zaihao picked up the equipment that didn't look very heavy and gestured, "It has the ability to record a person's combat data. As long as he wears it, After it has participated in a battle, it can imitate the person wearing it, whether it is a magic signal or something else. Unless the other person comes to see it with his own eyes, I guarantee that he will not be able to tell the difference."
"You want to use it to imitate me?"
"After all, Lucky Eye uses magic detection. This thing actually copies your magic signal. For those who are familiar with magic detection, this method of deception has never appeared before." Chang Zaihao said proudly. Said, "This set of armor allows us to quickly spread elite-level combat capabilities to ordinary soldiers. As long as I find a way to increase the production scale, it will be possible to install it on a large scale. Moreover, it can be streamlined without hindering its use." Other weapons."
"The problem is, even if someone dresses up as me, they are just hanging around in the periphery, and my own magic signal cannot be hidden. Even if I use this armor to replace it with someone else, it will be the same."
"That's my business." Liuye shook the medicine in his hand, "Naturally dissolving medicine, like a chameleon, allows you to become part of the natural environment within a certain period of time."
"What do you mean? Do you want me to turn into some kind of animal? I'm afraid this method won't work either. Mousse probably won't let go of such a target."
"No, no, no, you don't understand what I mean. It can make you like a chameleon, but not only the color, but your whole body will assimilate with the surrounding natural environment. For example, you can directly turn into soil or trees ,even……"
"Understood." Lu Ning interrupted the other party's introduction and took the potion over, "You two have really worked hard to create a lot of things. Then the last question, who is the one who puts on the armor and imitates me?"
"I'll go, anyway, I just walk around the outer area to attract attention." Liuye said.

The plan was executed smoothly. After all, the tourists' fantastic ideas were things that had not appeared in this world before. Chang Zaihao and Liuye's research was in a sense unique.
Lu Ning quietly approached the area. It was not difficult for her to find a location, because the damage caused by the "famine" to Lixila was still there, and it was not easy for the other party to cure the disease.
Following the induction, Lu Ning turned into a puddle of mud and slid into the depths of the swamp. She was indeed not discovered this time, because Liuye was too blatantly wandering in the distance. Moss had focused most of his attention there, and Lixila was also on guard - he recognized Lu Ning's magical characteristics.
In this state, it wouldn't be a big problem for Lu Ning to approach quietly. However, Liuye also warned her not to use spells, as any method of mobilizing magic power would render the potion ineffective.
Lu Ning finally saw the floating city, or rather, the remains of the floating city.
Most of it has sunk into the ground, with only some of the taller buildings in the city poking out from the ground. Swamps have slowly covered the surface of the city, and the original glory of the dilapidated city is almost gone.
The demihumans are currently exploring this city. As discussed before, the demihumans did not control the floating city, and they did not even dig out many things. The great purifier may be the most valuable thing they found here, so they paid so much attention to it.
Lu Ning drilled into a section that was being excavated.
There are several spire-like buildings emerging from the ground here, so the demihumans also use this as a major excavation area. After all, most of the city has sunk into the ground. They are not sure where to find valuable things at all, so they might as well start with some marked directions.
Now, many of the main parts of the building have been dug out here.
The war that year caused a lot of damage here. At least in Lu Ning's opinion, there were a lot of signs of corrosion on these minaret buildings. But the strange thing is that this place does not have much residual pollution from gods or demons. Compared with the surrounding swamps, the environment is quite pleasant.
The demihumans used magic and tools to solidify and peel off the mud, revealing the walls of the building. There are many patterns left on it, some of which look like magic, and some of which are simply decorations. The interior of the building was also accessible. Since it was entered from above, Lu Ning could clearly see that this place was not decorated like a church, nor did it look like a military factory.
She adjusted her posture and began to drill down into the quagmire. This process was not particularly smooth, because after all, she couldn't really just treat herself as a puddle of mud. After spending a certain amount of time, Lu Ning arrived at what was supposed to be the first floor of the building.
Without a field of vision, Lu Ning could only rely on some sense of the surrounding quagmire to investigate the place. The excavation work above was coming soon, and she didn't want the demihumans to suddenly pull out something stronger than a large purifier.
Emptyness - this is Lu Ning's most intuitive feeling.
The demihuman's judgment was correct. The bottom of these spiers was actually the same building, and the bottom was completely connected. It looked like a building made up of complex geometric figures, with a regular hexagon in the center. However, this The central hall is very empty, with nothing except the swamp that has filled it.
If something goes wrong, there must be a demon. How could the angels leave an empty room here?
Lu Ning began to feel the walls and the ground more carefully, and finally she found something similar to a switch.
She didn't try to touch the switch. In a state where she didn't understand anything, it was the most basic rule not to be mean. She sensed her surroundings and found that there was indeed space below, and some soil had seeped in, but compared to this When the top is completely filled, there isn't much at the bottom.
"Confined space?" Lu Ning was a little confused.
It's a pity that she can't go any further to sense it. At this moment, she already knows that the purpose of this building may be a bit special. Do the Ya people have such preparations?
Wait a minute, did she sigh just now that the pollution level here is very low, and the environment is already very good compared to the swamp outside?
So why is pollution so low? After diving and investigating, Lu Ning was absolutely sure that the soil here was from the same source as the soil outside, so there could only be something absorbing the pollution. And pollution is something like this for the aborigines of this world. If we describe it more accurately, their essence is the exclusive energy of divinity and demons!
"Underneath-"

On the ground, Lan Wu wiped the sweat from her head. Even though she had plenty of energy, she was still very tired from digging these days.
"Captain, how long do we have to dig here? The launch silo we dug before is nearly a hundred meters deep. Although this place is a building, it must be at least thirty or forty meters high, right? And this time The area is bigger." One of her team members sat down in the mud, not caring about the dirt.
"What can I do about the decision made by the heroes? Besides, this is the angel's battle fortress. If we can dig out some useful things from it, it will be enough for us to use it for a long time." Lan Wu doesn't know much about long-term things. , but she is the captain, and she can't explain to the team members that she doesn't understand.
"There is no good news about the large purifier in the launch silo last time." The team member looked dejected. "I don't think these angels will consider our use when they build things. When I was homeless, It’s also because the angels don’t care about demi-human transactions at all…”
"You have been talking about this for ten times in the past. How many of you are from good backgrounds? Except for Mr. Lixila, most of them came from the bottom, right? A war has set us free." Lan Wu shoveled the shovel in his hand into the mud, took off the water bottle and drank a sip for himself, "Now is a great time for us to rectify our own name, and let them see the power of demi-humans. What happened to the angel?" As long as we can use it, who can say it’s not ours?”
The team member scratched his head and smiled.
Although the work here is tiring, there is not so much pollution that erodes the body all the time. It is better than the work of external exploration, so although he complains, he actually prefers this job.
Moreover, the demihumans were willing to dig out quickly. Moss and Lixila did not force them to work all the time. He just felt a little bored during the digging process.
"Have you rested? After resting, we will dig for a while, and then we will eat. In a few days, we will go back in shift, and the patrol task will not be easier than this." Lan Wu smiled at his team members.
"Okay, oops, the mud is stuck, captain, give me a hand."
The demi-human sitting in the mud stretched out his hand, and Lan Wu grabbed his palm and pulled hard.
She staggered, grabbed half of her arm, and almost fell down in the mud. The smell of blood spread into her nasal cavity, and her survival instinct immediately issued a warning. Lan Wu raised his head with the loudest voice and roared out——
"Enemy attack!"
Bright golden light penetrated from the ground.
