Chapter 141: The Rules of the Forbidden Lands
"The Kamidai Family is escaping."
"It is certain that the Firepit troops have appeared. There might be Level A elders there, and it is very likely that a mind-control totem is also involved."
It was very strange to see troops from Firepit appear here, and it was more abnormal to have a Level A among them.
"The Kamidai Family\'s convoy is falling apart. The members are using Kamikaze tactics to fight at this point. Only Kamidai Josuke\'s vehicle has escaped from the chase. It seems like there\'s a hidden master in that vehicle.
After reporting, Xiao Gong quickly guided the drones to leave the battlefield and return to their convoy.
If he stayed longer, he would risk the drones being shot down by the wilderness men.
Before that, he had been using his radio to broadcast what he saw to the other vehicles. It wasn\'t that it was important information, but the playboys in the autumn hunting team all liked to listen to these.
These people didn\'t have many skills themselves, and they would always find enjoyment in listening to these exciting battles.
Li Yinuo said to the radio, "Xiao Gong, your broadcasting skills need to be improved."
Xiao Gong replied calmly, "Yes, Miss Yinuo. I will do a better job next time."
At this very moment, an unfamiliar voice sounded in the radio, "Next time? Will you be coming after us next time? After we return to Firepit this time, I will be rewarded by the gods and become stronger."
The voice was hoarse. The speaker must be in his forties.
Li Yinuo looked behind her. Their encrypted radio was deciphered by the wilderness men!
"Xiao Gong, Wang Bingxu," said Li Yinuo as she switched to the alternate encrypted channel, "Head straight for Forbidden Land 002. We\'ll play with them after we get there!"
They were already very close to Forbidden Land 002!
Countdown 115:00:00
5 AM.
In the sky, a light suddenly appeared in the east.
Everyone in the autumn hunting team saw that a dense forest appeared on the horizon.
The extent of the forest was unimaginable. From a distance, it looked like a green blanket covering the ground. By looking at it, it was difficult to notice any gaps between the trees.
Most surprisingly, there was a towering tree growing in the deeper part of the forest, much like a tower leading to the sky.
Qing Chen could swear that he had never seen a tree of that size, just like he had never heard of a blue whale that was several kilometers long.
All this seemed to exist only in myths and legends.
It was as if the Classic of Mountains and Seas was suddenly placed here.
That tree was taller than the mountains. Its canopy was like the clouds, supporting the sky.
The sense of vicissitudes and eccentricity that rushed to their faces made people feel some inexplicable yearning.
That was something truly out of the ordinary.
"Teacher," Qing Chen said in a low voice, "will there be one day when the Forbidden Land expands to completely cover the entire world, when ancient myths become a reality, and those mythical beasts recorded by our ancestors reappear in this world?"
That scene shocked Qing Chen, making him quite speechless.
Li Shutong smiled and looked at his student, "What you said might one day become the reality, and human beings will no longer be the masters of this world. The world will be once again back to its natural state. While appreciating the beauty and magnificence of that, just keep in mind that it can also be very dangerous."
Qing Chen said quietly, "Teacher, there are myths in the Outer World that after the god who created the world died, his eye turned into the Sun and the Moon, his teeth into metals and rocks, his bones into the trees and the mountains, and his blood into the rivers and oceans… Would you say that it\'s quite similar to how the Forbidden Lands are being formed?"
Li Shutong thought about it and said, "That god in your myths… is he quite obese?"
Qing Chen, "???"
How did we get here? I\'m being serious!
Li Shutong smiled and said, "But this myth is really similar to the formation of the Forbidden Lands."
"Then how powerful of a superhuman would it take to make a tree that large?" asked Qing Chen.
"Oh, that tree is not made by anyone. It is a superbeing itself." Li Shutong said, "It was here even before the Forbidden Land formed. Hmm… that\'s not exactly right either. It was said that a nuclear bomb landed on where the tree was in the past era. That nuclear bomb destroyed an entire city. Either due to the radiation or some other powerful being in the city, the soil here was fertilized."
Qing Chen was curious, "Everyone is talking about the dangers of the Forbidden Lands. Is it because the creatures inside have already evolved to threaten humans? Will they attack humans?"
"A Forbidden Land is much like a Forbidden item. It has its own rules, so if you break its rules, everything in it will become a whole and try to kill you. At that time, even a flower can kill you."
"Just like the Forbidden Item ACE-089, it will kill anyone who sings in front of it. It can\'t be destroyed and can hardly be stopped. Even if it was stopped, it would kill its target at once as soon as it was freed. A very vengeful item… Right now, it should be kept in a sealed, soundproof metal box by the Forbidden Tribunal."
"How do you know about this Forbidden Item?" Qing Chen asked curiously.
"Oh," Li Shutong explained, "There used to be a B-level superhuman who was getting old, so the Taboo Tribunal was worried that he would create a new Forbidden Land after he died and wanted to capture him. However, when they went out to hunt him down, he hid away. The Taboo Tribunal played ACE-089 a soundtrack of this person singing, and the Forbidden Item defied all laws of physics, traveled over a thousand kilometers, and finally killed the superhuman. God knows how the Taboo Tribunal got the soundtrack of him singing.
"So, that\'s how the Forbidden Item works. But what about the Forbidden Lands?" Qing Chen asked.
"It can do whatever it wants," Li Shutong said with a smile, "I\'m not exaggerating at all. Of course, there is a general rule: don\'t tell others in the Forbidden Land, the rules of that Forbidden Land."
It wouldn\'t like other people talking about itself.
