Purgatory Artist-Chapter 172: Hide and seek

The wind and snow roared.

Other than white, there were no other embellishments between heaven and earth.

At the end of the thick snowfield.

Liu Ping and Zhao Chanyi sat in front of a cliff and looked down together.

Below them was a transparent layer of dark ice.

With their eyesight, they could naturally see through the layer of ice and the large buildings below.

These buildings were all frozen in the layer of ice.

Liu Ping even saw a brand new steel machine, flying above the buildings like a bird.

But it was frozen.

"A combat ... aircraft ..." He whispered.

"It's a technological iron bird!" Zhao Chanyi said excitedly.

"According to the historical records that I know, the Kingdom of Ceylon appeared a hundred years ago and only existed for a short period of a hundred years. It was not recorded in the history books that they developed aircraft ... They must have brought something from Purgatory, otherwise it would be impossible for them to reach such a level of civilization."

After Liu Ping finished speaking, he gently picked up the snow and sprinkled it on the deep blue ice below.

A line of small burning words quickly appeared:

[You have seen an incomprehensible frozen world with your own eyes.]

[Your Role points have increased.]

[Current Role points: 5/10.]

The sequence had already admitted that the scenes he saw were a secret.

But the people of all classes in the entire empire did not know about this, and there were no records in various books.

Wait.

When did the Kingdom of Ceylon perish?

Two years ago.

Or a year ago?

Damn it, why was there no detailed record of such recent history?

Perhaps ...

The fifth expedition team was the first official expedition team?

How could this be?

In fact, after all these years of development, the borders of the entire empire had gradually extended outwards.

The reason the border couldn't be pushed forward was that there were unknown things beyond every border. The vile environment of Evernight was filled with dangerous ruins.

The Kingdom of Ceylon was just a corner of the border.

Compared to the immediate danger of the Sleepers on other borders, this place did not have the urgency to be explored and treated first.

No one would have thought that this civilization was so shocking.

So the fifth expedition team was silenced?

Liu Ping took out the Naturalist emblem, but found that it did not move at all.

Outside the empire, it could not be connected to the war sequence.

Zhao Chanyi suddenly frowned, "That terrifying guy is still chasing us."

"It's really persistent. We've already used all kinds of escape techniques to open up the distance between us. Why is it still chasing after us?" Liu Ping murmured.

He turned his gaze to the void of space.

Lines of burning words had already appeared there:

[Your life force has been locked onto.]

[The lock-on cannot be removed this time. As long as you are still alive, the other party will be able to sense the life aura emanating from your body and find your location.]

It was rather tricky.

Liu Ping narrowed his eyes slightly and seriously thought about countermeasures.

"It's so persistent in chasing after you. Is it because you're a healer?" Zhao Chanyi tilted her head and asked.

"No, if every healer had to endure this level of pursuit, it would have alarmed the entire empire," Liu Ping said.

"What do we do now? We might as well fight it to the death. "Zhao Chanyi said.

"No need ... As long as it loses track of me, it will immediately give up this chase," Liu Ping said.

"Why?" Zhao Chanyi was puzzled.

"Time cost. After all, I'm just a newly promoted Level-3 Knight, and "It" is a God. It must have a lot of important things to deal with. For example, the religion in its hands is about to take root in the empire. If I were It, I wouldn't have so much time to specially look for an ant," Liu Ping said.

He was silent for a moment, then said, "Unless I'm worth it, then there's only one thing left."

"I've taken over the mission of the fifth expedition team and started investigating the ruins of the Ceylon Kingdom again."

"... Yes, that's the answer."

Zhao Chanyi took out a pill and ate it. She said vaguely, "Then we'll continue to waste time with it?"

"This is already the end of the ruins. If we continue forward, we'll cross the ruins of the Ceylon Kingdom and enter an unknown area that's completely unrecorded. Actually, that's even more dangerous. We'd better think of a way to get rid of that monster first" Liu Ping said.

Zhao Chanyi said, "Back then, before the final battle on the Grand desolate Plain, I' had already made all the preparations. I knew that if I chose to enter the unknown world with you, I would face all kinds of dangers."

She was suddenly stunned. She took out the storage bag at her waist and said, "Speaking of which, I thought that you might have been busy with the final battle and might have neglected some small things, so I made some preparations for you."

"You made preparations for me?" Liu Ping asked subconsciously.

"Yes."

Zhao Chanyi took out a string of copper coins, a pill furnace, a pot, a formation plate, a few bundles of blank talismans and talisman brushes from the storage bag.

"There are too many things needed to refine weapons. Actually, I've also brought them. If you want them, I'll take them out," she said.

Liu Ping's gaze swept across the items and said, "There's no way to get rid of it with these things."

Zhao Chanyi patted the storage bag and took out a silver suitcase and placed it in front of Liu Ping.

"What's this?"

Liu Ping opened the suitcase.

He saw two rows of twenty metal boxes neatly placed inside.

"I heard it's a type of bomb. I noticed that you like these little things that can explode quite a bit" Zhao Chanyi said.

"It's an inductive type, not bad. But these things are useless against that monster, they can't even scratch its skin." Liu Ping smiled and shook his head.

"That's true ... seems like we have to think of another way." Zhao Chanyi said disappointedly.

Liu Ping suddenly paused and murmured,

"Since we're about to be caught, let's give it a try."

"Try what?"

"That monster definitely knows something. We have to think of a way and see what it'll do."

...

A black light was flying freely in the endless snowstorm.

As if it sensed something, it was like a black bat. After a few flashes, it landed in a pile of rubble.

Boom.

Flames shot up to the sky, a loud explosion resounded throughout the world.

A few breaths later, all the sounds were drowned out by the howling snowstorm.

A deep hole in the snow appeared on the ground.

The monster that was covered in a layer of black light was covered in snow, looking a bit haggard.

This kind of attack couldn't hurt it at all, but it looked like someone was humiliating it. It was like saying.

Look.

You've been fooled.

The monster reached out its pale white bony claws and gently pinched a few metal shards.

"Technology, bombs ..."

It spat out.

The next moment.

As if it sensed something, it flew towards a certain direction.

A few minutes later.

Boom!!!

A loud explosion came from somewhere in the snowstorm again.

The monster stood in the empty snow, shaking off the dirt and snow on its body.

It didn't make a sound and continued to run towards the next location it sensed.

Then, there was another explosion.

In the snowstorm, the sound of explosions could be heard again and again.

Finally.

The last explosion sounded.

One breath.

Two breaths.

The snowstorm replaced the explosions and once again ruled the world.

The monster stood at the edge of the cliff.

It shook off the snow on its body and looked down.

"The connection was cut off ... did they enter the ruins?"

It looked around again.

A silver box was randomly opened, inside it was a bomb that hadn't been used.

Then, there were some trivial human tools, such as a sled, a food bag, a water bottle, a tent and a set of winter clothes.

These were all very common items.

Obviously, this is where the human was last, and then he disappeared from here.

Then there was only a single answer.

That human really did enter the ruins.

The monster muttered: "How is that possible ..."

"To enter this Space-Time, one must be recognized by a Sequence. Last time, it was a group of scholars, but this time, a single human was able to do it?"

No one answered it.

The snowstorm continued to howl without stopping.

The monster stayed silent for a few moments, then reached out its bony claws from under the black glowing robe and pointed at the sky.

The void of space opened.

"I don't have time to waste with an ant ... if he's lucky enough to survive, I'll catch him when he return to the Empire ..."

The monster lightly flew up, entered the void of space, and quickly disappeared without a trace.

On the snowy plains.

The snow continued to fall without stopping.

The items on the cliff were slowly being buried by the snow, no longer visible.

10 minutes later.

The void of space suddenly opened.

The source of this c𝐨ntent is freёnovelkiss.com.

The monster silently landed, looked around, then swept away the thick layer of snow with its hand.

Only to see that the items that were originally scattered all over the place were still there, and no new traces could be seen outside the cliff or on the snowy plains.

The monster sensed for a few moments, then muttered: "He still hasn't returned, nor are there any traces, so he really was transported inside"

It flew up and disappeared without a trace.

After that, it didn't appear again for the next few moments.
