Mythological Revival Begins with Sanxingdui

"Mental strength?"

"Yes, you can also think of it as a magnetic field."

Jiang Ran nodded.

"Since fish are afraid of magnetic fields of a certain frequency, could we create a device to interfere with them?"

Gu Changsong made the suggestion.

"Wouldn't this be too much trouble?"

Creating a magnetic field that emits a special frequency is not something that can be done overnight; it's not as fast as imitating it with his mental power.

"It is indeed a bit of a problem, but have you thought about what will happen to the others when you're not around? And who can guarantee that we won't encounter other creatures of this type in the future?"

Gu Changsong's thinking was quite profound.

This is the first unusual creature they've encountered, but it certainly won't be the last.

Since we're searching for ancient civilization relics, similar things are bound to happen again. We can't keep letting Jiang Ran follow them around forever, can we?

"The teacher is right, it was my oversight."

Jiang Ran lowered his head in shame, like a student who had made a mistake.

"Although your brain has been genetically optimized and developed, it's been too short a time and you haven't fully adapted yet. Once this busy period is over, you must take some time to reflect and prepare. Sharpening your axe before chopping wood is essential; some things can't be rushed."

Gu Changsong sighed.

Although Jiang Ran strengthened his brain, the time was too short, and he was not able to adapt to his own abilities.

He had no idea how terrifying he was right now.

"Bang!"

Just as the group was talking, a splash of water suddenly erupted from the water in the distance.

Then came the second, the third...

"It's a ichthyosaur!"

As soon as Jiang Ran turned his head, he saw the fireflies shimmering on the water.

"So many?"

Sun Ming finally understood why Qiu Yaqin and the other woman were in such a sorry state.

The fish-duck is two meters long and incredibly strong; there are now over a hundred of them.

They all rushed towards them, and from a distance, it looked like countless speedboats charging forward.

"Hurry up and go."

Gu Changsong's expression changed drastically, and he quickly told everyone to leave.

He wasn't afraid of the other party, but he didn't want a conflict to break out here. If someone saw it, it would definitely cause a huge uproar online.

"You go first, I'll cover the rear."

Jiang Ran adjusted the magnetic field frequency again and launched an attack.

An invisible shockwave spread outwards from him in all directions, and the fish and ducks affected by the magnetic field froze in place.

The group took the opportunity to leave.

Back at the hotel, everyone looked rather grim.

After all, this was their first time working together as a group, and encountering such a setback would be unacceptable to anyone.

"Teacher, look! Someone posted about what happened here online."

Sun Ming, who was searching for information online, suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

Everyone quickly gathered around.

It was a short video, only a dozen seconds long, but it garnered over a million views.

The scene being filmed was the one where the fish and geese charged forward together.

"This is bad."

Gu Changsong's heart sank after seeing the video.

Although the video did not capture the fish's specific appearance, its sheer size will certainly attract the attention of local authorities.

It is estimated that a professional team will soon go underwater to explore.

"I'll go back into the water tonight. If I don't find any remains, I'll leave first thing tomorrow morning."

Jiang Ran pondered for a moment before speaking.

"I'll go with you."

Qiu Yaqin, having recovered, walked over.

"Sister Qin, your injury hasn't healed yet, so don't come with me this time. I'll be fine on my own."

Jiang Ran shook her head and refused.

Although Qiu Yaqin was able to move freely in the water, she was injured after all, and it would be inappropriate to drag her into the water again.

into the night.

The afternoon video incident caused a surge in tourists, with many people gathering around the lake with flashlights, hoping to catch a glimpse of the legendary "lake monster."

Jiang Ran found a secluded spot and quietly submerged into the water.

Time was of the essence, and he dared not delay for a moment. As soon as he entered the water, he went straight to the place where he had encountered the fish-woman.

The familiar pain returned to my wrist.

A dozen or so fluorescent lights suddenly appeared in the dark water.

This time, Jiang Ran did not choose to avoid it, but took the initiative to meet it.

"Each bionic beast has its own logic code. If I can successfully hack into their core, I can say that I might be able to control them."

Jiang Ran first used a special frequency to disrupt the opponent's movement, and then began to quickly analyze their underlying code.

Various data flashed before his eyes.

ten minutes later……

"It's a success!"

Jiang Ran's face showed delight.

He reached out and beckoned, and a merganser quickly swam towards him.

At this moment, Jiang Ran could clearly perceive the other person's thoughts. Although they could not communicate, the other person could understand him instantly with just a thought.

"Could this be the mythical art of beast taming?"

Ancient myths often feature powerful beings who tamed exotic beasts to serve as mounts and pets. Now it seems that perhaps they, like myself, used some special frequency to communicate with each other.

After taming the fish-woman, Jiang Ran also found the location of the ruins through its memories.

Without hesitation, he immediately had Yu Fu take him to the ruins of the ancient Dian Kingdom.

The fish-like creatures are extremely fast, darting through the water like torpedoes.

Soon, they brought Jiang Ran to a crevice.

The fish skillfully scurried into the crack.

The moment he entered, the watch on Jiang Ran's wrist vibrated violently.

"Buzz~"

The scenery before my eyes changed in an instant.

The original stone wall disappeared, replaced by a palace shimmering with blue patterns.

[Beep beep beep... Alarm, intruder detected!]

A piercing alarm sounded.

A beam of red light enveloped Jiang Ran.

[Clearing system activation, starting the target removal process.]

[Beep beep, alarm! Clearance failed...]

The red light swept back and forth across Jiang Ran's body, but it did not cause him any harm.

This wasn't the first time Jiang Ran had encountered something like this.

They had previously tried to kill Jiang Ran with the stone statue at Qin Shi Huang's mausoleum, but their attack was ineffective against him.

I later learned that this was an ability resulting from genetic optimization.

If he was human before genetic optimization, then he is more like a set of data code after genetic optimization.

Unless the other party's erasure program exceeds his code level, these erasure programs are useless to him.

It would be more effective to use physical attacks.

This is why, even when technology reaches a certain level, some people still resort to physical means of attack.

Because, given equal levels of civilization and technology, physical attacks are the most effective means of attack.

After breaking through the ruins' defense system, Jiang Ran successfully entered.

"Lu Shu, I have entered the ruins of the ancient Dian Kingdom. Can you help me analyze it?"

After entering the ruins, Jiang Ran did not touch anything randomly. Instead, he contacted Lu Shu and asked him to analyze the technological civilization here through projection.

The watch quickly replicated the surrounding environment and transmitted it to Lu Shu.

A moment later...

[Master, this should be a branch of civilization from the lineage of Lord Bingzhu.]
