Wasteland Love Game

Chapter 174 168. The man was late but arrived
As the large army continued to advance, everyone could faintly see a large area of ​​desolate city ruins in front of them.Just from the first impression, the ruins come from an ancient city that flourished for thousands of years, but was destroyed by supernatural disasters.

This meant that they were about to cross the "Hill of Death".

According to the map, the army only needs to pass through two more areas to reach the "temple" where the target location is located.

Chen Entropy, who was following in the team, yawned and said to himself:
"The army cultivated by the chaebol is really not to be underestimated. If I am alone, I will definitely not be able to deal with that monster."

"Good evening, Xiao Chen~" At this moment, the message of Hekalis suddenly appeared in Chen Entropy's mechanical helmet.

"Heikaliss, what's going on with you?" Chen Entropy raised his brows and asked.

"Cyberwarlock beat me, but I didn't let him take advantage of it. I blew up all his equipment systems with my backhand." Hekalis replied.

"As expected of you, how is the situation at the expeditionary army headquarters?" Chen Entropy asked.

Hekalis replied: "I have paralyzed the communication system of the expeditionary force. Now their headquarters can't contact the troops, so they can only send people to chase them. And I have some good news to tell you."

"Normal, I expected this too." Chen Entropy showed curiosity: "What good news?"

"The one who came to chase you is the young master Xu whom you have been thinking about~" Hekalisi smiled and said, "Isn't this good news?"

"Don't be so gay, he is not worthy of my heart and mind." Chen Entropy chuckled:
"It seems that I accidentally caught a big fish this time~ Don't worry, I will take care of it."

"Then you don't need my help from now on? I have nothing to do, I'll go to rest first." After finishing speaking, Hekalis was ready to go offline.

"Oh, by the way," Chen Entropy said again suddenly.

"What's wrong?" Hercaris asked.

Chen Entropy thought for a while and said, "You have worked hard this time, so take a good rest."

As the planner of this game, Chen Entropy certainly knows the power of the cyberwarlock, and also knows that Hekalis must have paid a heavy price in order to deal with the warlock.

"Fuck, don't be so nasty, it sounds weird!" Hekalis suddenly became a little at a loss, and quickly replied:
"It's okay, I'll go down first, let my mother come back alive~"

"Hey, you want me to die in the abyss, right?" Chen Entropy couldn't help laughing.

After the two privately communicated, Chen Entropy followed the large army into the city ruins area.

Brick and stone buildings are arranged neatly and orderly along the street, which is quite classical.Even after years of corrosion and weathering, Chen Entropy can still imagine what a glorious city this place used to be.

The only thing that makes people feel a little uncomfortable is that there are countless stone sculptures scattered on the ruined streets.

These sculptures are all in different shapes, including running children, women carrying vegetables and milk, men pulling carts, and old people resting peacefully on chairs. Time is fixed here.

"Here... what happened?"

Chen Entropy quickly looked at a stone sculpture of a woman who was cleaning on the street, and found that the sculpture craftsmanship was very realistic, as if turning a person into a living stone.Whether it is the material of the clothes or the texture of the skin, even the stunned expressions on the women's faces are restored to life.

After entering the ruins, a soldier glanced at the statue of a child next to him and muttered in a low voice, "Speaking of which, do you feel that someone is watching us?"

"I also feel like being stared at by these statues." The soldier on the side echoed, turning sideways to avoid the statue in front of him.

And just after the two left, the child's stone statue's face suddenly twisted slightly, the corners of its mouth curled into a strange arc, and its expression gradually became terrifying.

At the same time, a line of system prompts for the collapsed core appeared in front of Chen Entropy:

[Because you have explored a new area, the "Abyss Map" has been updated, do you want to check it? 】

Chen Entropy clicked on the "Abyss Map" in the system, and sure enough, he found a new area lit up on the map, which required points to unlock.

After spending 500 Honkai points, the icon symbolizing the ruins of the ancient city on the map was lit up, and a string of words appeared in Chen Entropy's mind:

[Area Code 0199: City of Disasters where Divine Punishment was cast down by the Master of the Stone of Life and Death]

[Introduction: As a god who is hostile to human beings, the Lord of Life and Death Stone will use various reasons to send divine punishment to human towns, turning all living people in the towns into stones.

And the souls of these living people turned into stones will be imprisoned here forever.Over time, there will be resentful spirits condensed in the stone carvings, and they will attack all living creatures that pass by indiscriminately. 】

"What a god of wicked taste." Chen Entropy commented.

At this moment, there was a strange sound of stone breaking suddenly from the ruins.

The stone sculptures located in the ruins cracked one after another, and the jet-black liquid seeped out from the cracks in the stones, gradually condensing into strange-looking monsters.

These monsters have an appearance similar to that of humans, but their whole bodies are composed of these black substances.If you want to use a occult metaphor, they are like humanoid ghosts transformed from shadows or black mud.

"You witnessed a wraith emerging from the stone carving, make a mental check."

The same words of blood appeared in everyone's mind at the same time, but fortunately, these are only 1d10 level monsters, so basically no soldiers went crazy.

Sensing the presence of the enemy, the soldiers immediately formed their own formations and fired at the monsters.

Although the wraith monster looks intrusive, it is actually no match for guns and artillery.After the monster was shattered by bullets, it melted back into a pool of black mud, showing no signs of regeneration.

The wraith monsters that emerged from the stone carvings were killed by the soldiers with intensive gunfire, and they didn't even have any power to fight back.

The soldiers quickly pierced through the ruins of the city and came to the next area.And Chen Entropy also quietly followed the team, using them to help him open the way.

At the end of the ruins, everyone saw a vast and endless harbor.The sea water shimmered under the moonlight, and there was a solitary wooden boat docked on the edge of the harbor.

Another reminder came from the core system, showing that there was an additional unlockable area in the "Abyss Map".

According to the map, what he saw in front of him was a vast sea area called "Sea of ​​the Guardian", and the temple was located on the island in the middle of the sea area, and he was only one step away from the temple.

After Chen Entropy consumed 500 points, he unlocked the information of this sea area:

[Area Code 0002: Sea of ​​Guardians]

[Introduction: This sea area surrounds His temple.There is an extremely terrifying existence in the sea, both to protect him and to monitor him. 】

The commander of the expeditionary force and several non-commissioned officers were standing by the sea, thinking about how to cross the sea, while all the soldiers were resting on the spot.

"It's finally here..." Chen Entropy sat on the shore and couldn't help stretching.

The goddess of the abyss who has been pestering him for a long time is on the other side of the sea.

What is the goddess longing for?What kind of impact will His existence have on this world?And whether he can abide by the agreement and be used by Chen Entropy?
Although the journey was full of twists and turns, when he met the goddess in person, all his questions would be answered.

"Wait a minute, everyone!"

At this moment, everyone heard a young man shouting loudly behind him.

But I saw a man wearing mechanical armor, with blue flames spraying from the bottom of his iron boots, flying towards them at high speed, followed by a dozen security soldiers flying with him.

"Who is the leader here?!" The figure in the mechanical armor landed among the soldiers, and then took off his helmet, revealing a handsome young man with short yellow hair.

"Master Xu?" An officer immediately recognized the person who came, and greeted him respectfully:
"It's so dangerous in the abyss, why did you come here?"

"I'm here to tell you guys." Xu Qing glanced at the surrounding soldiers with rather hostile eyes, and said loudly:

"The order you just received is false, you have been deceived!"
