Of course, Gus did not disappoint Li Hongshen. To be fair, after Li Hongshen's transformation, Gus was like the protagonist who won the golden finger, with an old grandfather standing behind him.
He exposed himself in the second month of his advance, but it didn't matter, all those who came to obstruct his assassination were dealt with by him like chopping melons and vegetables.
Even Gus did the reckless thing of charging a formal army of 500 people on his own. The big sword used for training had already been broken, but he picked up two sabers from the ground, raised them with his hands and dropped them, and raised them with his hands. When the knife falls, cut from south to north on the battlefield, and then from east to west.
At the end of the battle, only a dozen soldiers survived, but they were all frightened crazy by Gus.
After the battle ended, Gus never encountered any obstacles when passing through the territories of various nobles, and arrived at the royal city of the kingdom almost unimpeded all the way.
Immediately afterwards, Gus let Li Hongshen see an aristocratic mess from the Middle Ages. A perverted king who likes his daughter wants to kill a handsome general who is loved by the princess. The subordinates want to save the general.
In the end, the king died, the handsome general was abolished, the Legion of Glory was disabled, and the princess became the queen.
Then General Junmei went crazy, the team broke up, and most of them had to leave. As a result, the crazy general found an ancient wizard ruin, repaired himself by sacrificing his teammates, and brought a green hat to his friend by the way .
Now Jiyou, who was originally disabled and escaped, faced life and death, came back with the power of a transformed dragon, and stabbed the general right through.
As a result, the general did not die, and fell into the depths of the wizard's ruins, and was bent over by the ancient wizard who was dying, and became the key to his recovery. Seeing this, Li Hongshen couldn't help but wanted to take action.
He didn't care about Gus's life or death, but that under the ruins was a completed mithril vein, the kind that could be moved to the territory, which was really unbearable.
Chapter 268 The Ruins
Gus is like a blood man, with hundreds of wounds, large and small, on his body. He sits under a big tree and looks at the ruins hole not far away, panting heavily, with blood dripping from his body.
Obviously he had pierced the fallen man, but before he came out, the fallen man crawled out from the depths of the ruins, and became even more terrifying, the whole ruins were like his home field.
If Gus himself hadn't been transformed by Li Hongshen before, and had activated the dragon blood mode during the battle, he might have died just after the fight, let alone being knocked out of the ruins by that fallen man.
It's ridiculous to say that after the fallen man beat Gus out of the ruins, he couldn't get out of the ruins himself, which gave Gus a chance to breathe.
After a brief recovery, Gus stood up a little wobbly, and then his skin began to turn red, his eyes turned into vertical pupils, and mist rose from his nose and mouth.
Then scales appeared on the body, and the wound began to heal quickly, leaving behind shallow scars. After recovering completely, Gus breathed a sigh of relief and leaned against the tree again.
He was panting violently. This method of quick recovery would consume his physical strength and vitality. He could clearly feel his body crying, and he took out a box from his arms tremblingly. , took out an emerald green potion from inside, and poured it into his mouth all at once.
This was the last bottle of recovery potion he brought out from Li Hongshen. As the potion took effect, his trembling body returned to calm again, and then his eyes became fierce.
"I'm sorry, Master Wizard, I may not be able to fulfill my promise."
Pulling out the broken blade at his feet, Gus wanted to enter the ruins again and give his fallen friend a good time.
But before he could move, he suddenly rolled sideways quickly, only to see a blue space door open beside him, and Li Hongshen walked out of the space door gracefully.
Looking at the shocked Gus, Li Hong nodded with a deep smile,
"Long time no see, it seems that you are doing well."
After speaking, he threw a box to Gus by the way. After Gus took it, he was a little silent. In just a short moment, he wanted to understand some of the reasons. At the same time, he also knew why Li Hongshen would let him go so casually.
He even thought about it deeply, whether it was his intention that he met Li Hongshen, or it was Li Hongshen's deliberate contact.
At the same time, Li Hongshen's purpose of transforming him was for the so-called biological experiments, or for what he had encountered, to explore the ruins of the wizard.
Of course, Gus was just turning around in his heart, and didn't ask Li Hongshen, but kept silent and walked in front of Li Hongshen, leading him the way.
As Gus walked into the ruins again, Li Hongshen could see that it was a secret art garden at the beginning. Looking at the messy debris of vegetation on the ground, Li Hongshen shook his head regretfully.
Squatting down slightly, he grabbed a handful of soil from the flower bed, rubbed it in his hands carefully, and put it in front of his nose to smell it.
Afterwards, he raised his eyebrows, looked around for a week, and directly opened a space door in the sky, using the hands of a mage to scoop up all the soil in the flower bed.
Looking at the dumbfounded Gus, Li Hong explained with a deep smile,
"This is nearly a thousand years of spiritual soil. It has been in the internal circulation before, so the energy in the spiritual soil has been preserved almost intact. It is a very precious existence."
After Li Hongshen searched all the spiritual soil in the secret art garden, he also dismantled the base formation in the center of the secret art garden and threw it into the portable space.
When Li Hongshen and Gus passed through the Secret Art Garden, they were greeted by a dilapidated corridor with some broken stones on display.
Seeing that Gus's eyes had reflected the green light, Li Hongshen smiled slightly, and a layer of golden light appeared on his body surface, illuminating the entire passage.
"There are some roving puppets here. They can float in the air and then emit light beams. They are powerful and terrifying."
Gus walked in front, walking carefully, and at the same time did not forget to inform Li Hongshen of the relevant information.
Li Hongshen nodded and did not reply. Unlike the blurred picture in the projection, now he can see the lines on the wall more clearly, and perceive the energy released from the lines.
The more he perceives it, the more he feels that this kind of technology seems to have been seen somewhere. Unlike the array, this is like an ordinary energy circuit. Except that there is energy in it, which is broken and emitted, the other has no function.
Along with the advance, when Li Hongshen and the others passed through a cave formed by the collapse of several stone walls, several puppets flew out of it danglingly.
These puppets are like starfish, with whiskers behind them. There is a blue gemstone in the middle of the starfish, surrounded by a circle of red gemstones.
When these flying puppets found Li Hongshen and others, first the blue gems lit up, and then the red gems began to flash, and the originally opened water chestnuts also closed to form a triangular cone-like object. The beard began to glow, and a purple light was shot from the front end towards Li Hongshen and the others.
But before the light came to Li Hongshen's side, Gus moved quickly, knocking several flying puppets upside down with one punch, and then grabbed two flying puppets like a sledgehammer, and smashed them at other puppets .
Of course, before Gus could destroy these flying puppets, he was stopped by Li Hongshen. With the wandering of the golden thunder and lightning, these puppets trembled in mid-air, then emitted black smoke, and finally fell to the ground .
Several golden threads emerged in mid-air, dragging the falling flying puppet into mid-air, and then quickly dismembered it.
After the complete disassembly was completed, Li Hongshen watched it in detail for a while, and his originally relaxed and cheerful expression became serious.
He had seen this kind of flying puppet in the projection before, but he didn't recognize it immediately, but now he was a little surprised when he saw the real thing.
The core of the flying puppet in front of me turned out to be a small piece of Laputa floating stone. At the same time, these puppets have simple consciousness and can identify the enemy and the enemy. The intelligent core is a small piece of soul fragment. This is a very evil puppet refining method.
And the circle of red gemstones around the Laputa floating stone, together with several starfish-like water chestnuts, depicts a powerful spell-casting alchemy array, which can make the energy accumulated in the puppet's body form a beam of light waves, which is very powerful.
As for the tentacles behind the alchemy puppet, they are like energy receivers, absorbing energy from the surrounding walls and supplying it to the inside of the puppet. After this set, it can be seen that this is a very powerful puppet.
Such a unique puppet, plus the extravagant way of using floating stones for the puppet, reminded Li Hongshen of a floating city that disappeared mysteriously thousands of years ago.
The floating city disappeared mysteriously after its owner Graniford, the black-robed wizard of the seventh ring, failed to attack the eighth ring.
The floating puppet can be said to be the business card of that floating city, and it is the alchemy product of the great wizard Graniford. Li Hongshen didn't know whether he should be happy, uncomfortable, or frightened when he found such a thing.
After discovering the source of the ruins, Li Hongshen's expression was a little gloomy and uncertain. It is impossible to say that he is not interested in the ruins of the floating city here.
This is not talking about technical resources, but the most basic product resources, such as Mithril mines, which can make Li Hongshen a lot of money, and he can't help but want to take risks.
However, Li Hongshen didn't know what to do because of the risks he would face if he continued to go deeper. However, Li Hongshen just gritted his teeth, and after thinking for a while, he was ready to go deeper.
A floating city with seven rings of wizards that has fallen for thousands of years, plus a whole mithril mine that is known to exist at the bottom of the ruins, these are all worth his life. Facing the huge temptation in front of him, he really doesn't want to let go just like that.
Of course, if you want to go deeper, you still need to make some preparations. Taking the current level of the body as an example, it is very likely that it will not be able to cope with the next battle.
