"Stop, don't leave." A great magician stopped Lin Xu who was about to leave, and aimed the explosive bombs gathered in his hands at him.

Magical guidance marked Lin Xu, and explosive flame bombs were launched.

The great magician skillfully completed this process that he had practiced thousands of times.

At this time, the explosive bomb has been completed and has just been launched. There is no possibility of failure at all.

However, something he didn't expect happened.

Just when he marked the figure with magic guidance and was about to launch the explosive bomb in his hand, the explosive bomb suddenly went out of control.

what happened? Isn't this magic?

The great magician didn't understand what was happening at all, just like you saw a rabbit one day, suddenly grew wings and flew away. Such an unmagical thing could never happen.

But it just happened.

The explosive bomb went out of control at a moment when it was impossible to lose control.

With a bang, the exploding flame bomb directly confused the great magician's face.

Fortunately, this great magician has a good habit of opening a magic shield before fighting.

Therefore, under the defense of the repulsion field, the magic shield only shook for a while and did not cause any substantial damage to him.

But this incident made him stunned for a moment, because at that stage, it was impossible for the Explosive Flame Technique to fail. Let alone him, even a novice, it was impossible for him to finish the Explosive Flame Bomb when it was about to be thrown out. Failure.

However, such a life-threatening thing only made him shaken for a moment, and then he came back to his senses and began to release the second offensive magic.

Lin Xu, on the other hand, ignored him the whole time and left with Miss Qiu as if he didn't exist.

Until the great magician, who had been left behind by Lin Xu, completed the second magic in his hand as quickly as possible, shooting a big splitting spell behind Lin Xu.

But it was still the same as before, the moment the magic was about to take action, it suddenly became unstable.

Then there was a bang, and the so-called Great Disintegration Technique, which was a high-energy plasma beam, exploded before being launched.

But this time, the magic shield on his body shook and shattered, and then the Great Disintegration Technique acted directly on him, tearing his entire body into pieces.

And his last thought in the last stage of his life was that the magic shield shouldn't be broken so easily.

But what he didn't know was that the nanorobots he controlled in his body, his magic power, gradually began to get rid of his control when he aimed at Lin Xu.

As a result, the defense power of his magic shield was much lower than usual.

That's why it breaks so easily.

It's a pity that he no longer knows this.

Lin Xu also met many magicians like him along the way.

Someone noticed that the magic power was gradually out of control, and quickly stopped to stabilize his own magic power. As Lin Xu left, the restlessness of the nanorobots in the body stabilized, and he regained control of the magic power and saved his life.

Some people did not notice this and continued to attack Lin Xu, even if they were not killed by their own magic. As the magic finally got rid of control completely, it went berserk directly in the magician's body.

The result was that the magician was bleeding from seven orifices and was half disabled even if he was not dead.

Even if he could slowly regain control of the magic power in his body later on, he would still be half disabled.

Lin Xu and Miss Qiu left the palace in a swaggering manner.

Then he removed his power armor and returned to the hotel.

But they didn't plan to stay in the hotel any longer.

Instead, they called Miss Elf and took advantage of the night to take the anti-gravity suspension vehicle sent by Qingfeng to pick them up and left the City of Glow.

Lin Xu couldn't wait to see the laboratories left by humans.

About a hundred kilometers away from the City of Glow, to the south, are the continuous cloud and mist mountains.

It is shrouded in clouds and fog all year round, is cold and humid, and has no sunlight, so few people live here.

On the contrary, it has become a paradise for adventurers because it is dotted with many ancient ruins.

It is said that three or four thousand years ago, the climate here was not like this. At that time, because the mountains blocked the cold wave, it was like spring all year round. Countless people thrived here and built more than one ancient city.

Later, as the climate changed, it was gradually abandoned, and the ancient city became a ruin. The magic tower and various laboratories established by magicians became ruins. It is said that there are ghosts wandering among them.

So until now, only adventurers still appear in this place occasionally, looking forward to discovering something from a certain ruins.

For example, after getting a commission from Lin Xu a few days ago, paying off the debt and sending it home, he turned around and joined a team of adventurers and came here to Luke.

Of course, Luke is not here for adventure, but the noble young master who organized this team of adventurers. The commission given him was too much, so he came here.

Luke couldn't say whether he liked or disliked the aristocratic young man who wanted to play the adventurer game, but since he had received the money, he would work seriously.

So at night, Luke and another hired adventurer kept vigil.

The noble young master was resting with his two servants.

I have to say, it’s great to have money. Their five-person adventurer team flew all the way here in a magic airship.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to cover hundreds of kilometers in just a few days.

This airship, which uses magic crystals to arrange a floating magic array, is not very fast, but it is smoother and can carry a lot of supplies.

Seeing the aristocratic young man packing large and small packages in the airship, Luke wanted to sigh, this was not an adventure, it was more like a trip.

There was a bonfire on the ground, and an airship the size of a carriage was parked next to it. Luke was leaning on the airship, staring at the stars in a daze.

The noble young master was resting in the airship. His two servants and another adventurer were all sleeping wrapped in blankets around the campfire.

Luke thought that this night would also be a peaceful night. After all, a noble young man would not really choose a particularly dangerous place when he went on an adventure or travel, so Luke was still very relaxed.

Until it was late at night, Luke was about to wake up another adventurer, and the two of them changed shifts.

But suddenly he discovered that the starry sky above his head seemed to darken suddenly.

Confused, Luke opened his eyes and stared at the sky carefully, but the expression on his face gradually turned to horror.

Because he saw a behemoth-like thing of unknown size falling from the sky, directly covering the entire sky above his head.

For a moment, it seemed as if the sky had collapsed, and the whole sky was suppressed. Luke made a loud sound in his throat, but he couldn't scream out.

Until there was a frightened cry next to him. It was another adventurer who had woken up and was about to change shifts with him.

"Master, we have arrived at the target location. Will the autonomous machinery start working?"

"Start working."

"Yes, we found traces of suspected adventurers. Do we need to drive them away?"

"Will it interfere with the construction?" Lin Xu asked.

"It's not within the scope of construction and there will be no impact."

"Then don't worry about it." Lin Xu said nonchalantly.

As a result, dozens of aircraft carrier-sized autonomous mechanical aggregates landed on the ground, transformed and combined into various ground excavation equipment, and excavated underground amidst earth-shattering roars.

Explore the ruins bit by bit like an adventurer? nonexistent.

Digging directly into the ground is the romance of the industrial age.
