Chapter 509 Drones Can Solve
"The Hong family is one of the five ruling powers in the Demon City, and the only one that still insists on exploring the forbidden area."
The Hong family's power stemmed from the presence of a patriarch at the Mahayana realm.
Only today will this patriarch accompany us.
"So there won't be any casualties today, right?" Long Yuan pointed to the people around him who had come to apply for the job, just like them.
Xuanyuan Jinmo smiled without saying a word, but the confidence he exuded said it all.
When they left the forbidden area in their previous life, only one in ten of those who had enlisted survived, and even the Hong family lost an elder who was at the Integration Realm.
But whoever dies, that person won't let his men die.
I wonder what's in this forbidden area that would make the people of the Demon City so reckless.
At night, the group, along with other recruits, followed the Hong family's procession to the entrance to the forbidden area.
Mu Zhen and the others rarely communicated with each other.
Although Little Giant Pit said that the others didn't take them seriously at all, and didn't even send a single divine sense to them.
However, the necessary caution should still be exercised.
There's not much to talk about.
Anyway, Xuanyuan Jinmo has his own plans. They should just treat it as an opportunity to broaden their horizons, say less and do less, and just follow along.
“It’s certain there are no time travelers!” Mu Yunfei returned from outside and sat down in front of the fire.
He habitually picked up his portion of crispy, golden-brown spirit beast meat from the grill and handed it to Mu Zhen.
Mu Zhen gave him half of her food, saying, "You've been hungry all afternoon, eat quickly."
[We're surrounded by experts; everyone needs to be at their peak during this period. Little brother, you can't go hungry.]
Mu Yunfei was now dressed in an ancient-style black robe. Putting everything else aside, Mu Zhen was increasingly pleased with her slender waist cinched by a belt.
I never noticed before that my little brother had such a slim waist. I have great taste!
Look at this ancient costume I picked for him! He looks even better than that imperial advisor on Tongxin Road!
Two suspicious blushes appeared on Mu Yunfei's face, and she quickly lowered her head to concentrate on eating.
What kind of talk are these?
Is this how you use the word "awesome"?
He used to be quite satisfied with his appearance. Like mother, like son, his maternal grandfather said he looked a lot like his mother. Even though he was often mistaken for a girl, he never got angry.
The only annoying thing is that when they talk about Long Yuan and the others, they all describe them as dignified, handsome and charming.
When it comes to herself, it's all about how beautiful she is, even prettier than a girl!
How can a man always be described as handsome?
Growing my hair long is purely a habit and has nothing to do with any other factor.
In order to change his image, Mu Yunfei plans to take some time to cut his hair.
Looking back now, it seems like keeping it was a good idea.
So what if people say I'm pretty? What does it matter what others think? As long as some people find me pleasing to the eye, that's enough.
Huangfu Zique and Long Yuan both scoffed at the same time, "What's so interesting about this girly talk?"
Her cold, phoenix-like eyes lazily swept over the two of them.
Huangfu Zique and Longyuan: ...
Those who know when to yield are the wise ones; some shrug it off, others flip the meat over, and no one dares to provoke them anymore.
A slim waist doesn't mean a lack of explosive power. They can't afford to mess with this kid right now. He's elusive and unpredictable. The Golden Dragon can protect its master in times of crisis, but can it be faster than teleportation?
Long Yuan waited, waiting for the number of teleportation attempts to run out, and then he would see how arrogant he could be.
"What's going on with the Hong family? Why did they send several children along?"
"I don't know. The person in charge said it was their ancestor who agreed."
"Damn it! Don't even think about me caring whether they live or die."
Around another campfire, several burly men were drinking and chatting, expressing their dissatisfaction with the Hong family bringing along several children.
It's said that the ancestor agreed, so isn't it obvious that he took care of her?
In a purplish-red open-air vehicle, a man with waist-length black hair and a thick beard, which was neatly trimmed to match his neck, gave him a standard long, rectangular face at first glance.
Their aesthetic sense is truly appalling.
"Ancestor!" A sprightly old woman with white hair approached the sedan chair and asked, "We're going into the mountains tomorrow morning. Should we take those seven people with us?"
The long-faced old man didn't even open his eyes, only uttering a faint "hmm".
The old woman asked, puzzled, "How could a junior like me know the reason?"
"Descendant of an old friend!"
The old woman hesitated, but ultimately didn't dare to voice her objections and obediently retreated.
Descendants of the deceased? Wasn't our ancestor from the spirit world?
But Xuanyuan Jinmo claims to be from the cultivation world. The ancestor has never been to the cultivation world, so where would he get an old friend from such a place?
Xuanyuan… Hiss! Could he be a descendant of the Xuanyuan family in the Spirit Realm? I heard that the ancestors of the Xuanyuan family ascended from the cultivation world.
Sigh! I hope these seven kids won't be too much of a burden!
The next morning.
The mountain air was fresh and pleasant, and a few rays of sunlight pierced through the treetops, casting dappled light. Nearly two hundred people, led by the people in the car, stood together in front of a three-zhang-tall stone tablet.
"Crossing this stone tablet means entering a forbidden area. There is no spiritual energy inside, and it is filled with malevolent energy, which may make it difficult to breathe..."
Before Xuan Yuan Jinmo could finish speaking, Mu Zhen hurriedly interrupted him: "Wait a minute!" Pointing to the strangely shaped bushes ahead, she said, "This doesn't look like a good place at all."
Why insist on sending someone in to investigate? Couldn't we use a flying magical artifact?
Even before he went inside, he could smell a pungent, strange odor. It must be a harmful substance, and even the plants and trees had mutated.
They were currently on a mountaintop, and could see that the forest below was all dark purple, with only a few scattered patches of green.
To get to their destination, they first had to pass through that large forest, and then to that darker mountain range further away.
Look at the extent of the mutations in those trees; even nuclear radiation couldn't have caused such damage.
After the results are confirmed, will everyone experience any health problems?
Don't you dare mutate me!
"Tch!!" The young man who was eighth from the bottom in cultivation level and was standing nearby rolled his eyes, his attitude full of mockery: "Ignorant brat!"
Who doesn't know that the Demon City's forbidden area is a place devoid of spiritual energy? Even magical artifacts are useless here; what magical treasures in the world could possibly be used to explore it?
"Those malevolent energies will also actively retaliate against the probing of divine sense."
"Once inside, our dantian will be sealed, and the spiritual energy in our bodies will disappear instantly. We can only enter on foot."
Some good-natured people don't mind giving the younger generation a few pointers so they don't hold them back, since they are the people the Hong family patriarch is going to take with him.
The six people rolled their eyes and looked at each other's faces.
Then let's use something that doesn't require spiritual energy to operate?
The people here really don't understand technology.
For his own life and to help Fu Tingyu obtain the sacred fruit, Huangfu Zique took out the drone without hesitation.
Mu Zhen swiped her phone to start the connection.
"Let's go, what are you doing?" The old woman from the Hong family said unfriendlyly when she saw that everyone had walked quite a distance away, but the younger generation still showed no sign of leaving.
How can you have no self-awareness at all?
Fu Tingyu bowed slightly and nodded, saying, "Senior, if we have a way, we can conduct a preliminary investigation here first."
The others who heard this laughed and mocked, but they didn't bother to argue with the younger generation and continued on their way.
