Chapter 460: Chapter 460 – The Lost Woman

Within a few days, Chen Heng left the area he was in charge of and headed to another area. To him, this wasn’t too difficult of a task. The Guardian’s duty was to guard the safety of an area, but this didn’t mean that a guardian couldn’t leave the area he was in charge of.

Strictly speaking, normal behavior was fine as long as there were no violations of the rules and bad consequences. Generally, there would not be any problems for Chen Heng to leave the area that he was guarding.

Of course, if something happened to the area he was guarding during Chen Heng was away and caused bad consequences, that was a different matter.

However, the probability of such a thing happening was not high. Unless one was too unlucky, it was unlikely to happen. Chen Heng was the same.

Before he set off, he had already looked through the area he was responsible for in detail. Those places that were risky and prone to causing trouble were basically all shoveled by him and his men. In a short period, the problem should not be too big.

Chen Heng’s trip out this time was only to explore a ruin. The time he would need to spend should not be too long. Of course, Chen Heng could not do anything about it even if there were problems. After all, this ruin was too important to him.

The Ancient Mecha was the most precious treasure in this world. Even if it were the Black Dream Group behind Chen Heng, they probably would not be able to possess such a precious thing. For things like this, based on Chen Heng’s current situation, other than this opportunity, it would be very difficult for him to encounter it again.

Hence, Chen Heng couldn’t miss this opportunity. If he missed this opportunity, he would be at a disadvantage in future battles. After all, if he calculated carefully, Chen Heng discovered that the opponents that Lu Yao would encounter would all have powerful Ancient Mechas in the future.

For example, the Ancient Mecha in the ruin before him were only standard equipment, while the mecha under the five knights were considered top-notch even among the Ancient Mechas.

If Chen Heng did not have his own mecha, then he would be at a great disadvantage in the future. It was precisely because of this that he could not miss this opportunity. He left his base and sneaked to another area with this thought in mind.

It was a large plain with very few people living in it. According to Chen Heng’s understanding of the situation, this area was very barren. Due to the high altitude, harsh living conditions, and other reasons, the development of this area was not very good.

The same was true for the economy. The group of people who originally lived there also went out to work as time passed, leaving very few people behind. However, in the history of this world, this place was very famous. There were many famous stories and myths.

And that ancient ruin was located here, in one of these locations. The discoverer of that ancient ruin was an unknown small archaeological team. This archaeological team dug in this area and finally found traces of that ruin. However, in the beginning, no one could imagine what was in this ruin. After all, even if it was a ruin, there were different grades.

In this world, there were a lot of useless ruins. Some ruins could be excavated to find secret realms and secret treasures left behind from ancient times, but some ruins had nothing and only had a certain archaeological value.

Those ancient ruins that truly possessed secret treasures or even complete secret realms were rare. It was often not up to these small archaeological groups to excavate them.

It was also because of this that no one knew how much value this ruin had in the beginning. It was only after a period when the things in this ruin were gradually exposed that this ruin would slowly be taken seriously.

In the original trajectory of destiny, Lu Yao had originally taken advantage when this ruin had not been taken seriously by others. She had sneaked in and used this opportunity to avoid the authorities’ power, thus obtaining the Ancient Mecha.

And at this moment, this was exactly the idea that Chen Heng was prepared to have. Moreover, compared to Lu Yao in the original trajectory, Chen Heng had come earlier because he had already made early preparations. He could easily avoid some of Lu Yao’s troubles in her original path. This was a great advantage for him.

“Is this the area?”

In a desolate area, a car slowly stopped, and Chen Heng walked out from it. He looked at the area in front of him before he confirmed it a while later.

This should be the right place. It had been several days since Chen Heng came to this area. During these few days, Chen Heng had been exploring everywhere, searching for all kinds of information and comparing it with what he knew in order to find the exact location of the ruin.

According to what Chen Heng knew, the area of this ancient ruin was very large, and the area of excavation was also very large. After discovering it, people from all sides kept coming to dig.

However, there was only one place in the huge excavation area that was the real entrance. The reason why Chen Heng lingered around the outer area for such a long time was to confirm the location of the entrance. And now, he finally had some clues.

Chen Heng raised his head and looked forward. At this moment, tents and small wooden houses had been set up in the area in front of him. There were even many security guards stationed and police officers around the ruin, chasing away the people around the area, not allowing them to enter.

An outsider like Chen Heng would not be able to enter under normal circumstances. Of course, this did not matter.

In any case, Chen Heng did not intend to enter in front of other people. He stood there for a while and quietly watched for a long time. Then, he silently turned around and left the area. As the car neighed, the car left and disappeared into the area.

At night, the moonlight was just right. The sky looked pretty good. There were no clouds in the sky, and the Moon on the horizon looked very bright. The moonlight scattered across the land, looking especially pure and clear.

Chen Heng’s figure came to this place again. Unlike the lively scene during the day, this place was quiet at night. Many places were not as noisy as during the day, and it was much quieter. But even so, there were still many busy people. It looked like they were still working overtime, trying to get some results.

Chen Heng directly ignored these people and silently walked in. The guards were naturally still stationed at the periphery of this place, but Chen Heng just walked in openly, and no one noticed him. He walked right under their noses, but they still acted as if they didn’t see him.

Of course, it was true. Using spiritual power to distort the perception of others was the basic operation of spiritual power. It was even easier for Chen Heng, who used to be a wizard. If he really wanted to, it was not difficult for him to control the nearby guards and make them listen to his orders. It was just that there was no need to do so. He walked in as if there was no one there and silently went deeper.

“Where is the entrance?”

Walking around aimlessly, Chen Heng secretly frowned as this thought flashed through his mind. Even though he could roughly determine that the entrance was in this area by comparing layers of information, it was still a difficult question as to exactly where it was.

After all, the information Chen Heng knew wasn’t that detailed. It was just a general introduction to the matter. He wasn’t clear about the specific details. This would require him to go over and explore it himself.

The exploration process could be considered very long and required a lot of patience. Chen Heng explored this area for two to three days before he finally had some clues. In the process of exploring a region, he unintentionally felt some strange fluctuations. Then, he came to a realization.

“So that’s how it is.”

He silently closed his eyes and spread his spiritual energy outward like water waves. Under the full attention of his spiritual energy, he could feel the situation in the surrounding area. And under Chen Heng’s spiritual perception, the surrounding area seemed to have a faint feeling of disharmony.

It was as if space had been misplaced. Along with this inexplicable feeling, there seemed to be a female voice whispering in his ear.

“Who… can save me…

“Am I going to die… ?”

Waves of soft murmurs continued to ring in his ear. At this moment, they entered Chen Heng’s ear intermittently. This kind of situation made people feel that it was somewhat strange.

Chen Heng stood where he was and was silent for a long time. Then, he slowly opened his eyes.

“I found it…”

This thought flashed through his mind. Then, his body disappeared from where he was and quickly flashed past, becoming blurry.

“Am… am I going to die?”

Under the old tree, a figure was lying on the ground, mumbling to herself.

It was dark at that moment. In the sky, the faint silver moonlight was extremely bright. It could even be said that it was strangely bright. Under the illumination of the silver moonlight, the figure’s appearance slowly appeared. It was a woman who looked to be in her early twenties.

The woman looked ordinary. She was wearing a white shirt and jeans. At this moment, she was lying on the ground. Her face looked particularly pale. If one looked carefully, one would see that the woman’s body was stained with blood and her thigh was a bloody mess.

In the distance, with the breeze blowing, there were the occasional roars of wild beasts. The woman shrank her body in fear. An ominous premonition arose in her heart. She could not help but reveal a bitter smile, feeling that she might die here today. Regarding this, she already had a premonition, but her heart was still filled with fear.

In the distance, waves of violent sounds could be heard. It was as if a wild beast was attracted by the smell of blood and was about to walk over. Hearing this sound, she subconsciously began to tremble. She was a little afraid of what would happen next. However, the situation around her was a little strange.

As the sound rang out, the sound of the beast immediately disappeared. Then, it was replaced by a regular and calm sound. It was like the sound of a person stepping on a leaf. It was very loud. Then, a sound seemed to come out from the forest.

The woman could not help but widen her eyes and look in that direction. This time, she saw it very clearly. The person who came out from the forest was indeed a person. And it was a very young-looking youth.

“I’m saved!”

Immediately, her face revealed a look of pleasant surprise.

“Is it a living person?”

On the other side, the youth looked at the woman lying on the ground and couldn’t help but feel a little surprised.

A moment later. Chen Heng finished the fire in another area and handed the freshly roasted meat to the woman beside him. After spending some time together, Chen Heng already knew the woman’s name.

The woman’s name was Tang Rou. According to her, she seemed to be a member of the archaeological team outside. In the past, the archaeological team had first discovered this ruin.

“So you walked through a door one night and then found yourself here?”

Sitting in front of the bonfire, Chen Heng looked at Tang Rou and continued to ask.

“Yes.”

Facing Chen Heng’s gaze, Tang Rou nodded and then continued to say: “At that time, I didn’t know anything. I just woke up in the middle of the night and wanted to go to the toilet in a daze, so I came here.

“Now that I think about it, that door really wasn’t right. It wasn’t the door I usually walked through.”

Even though some time had passed, when she talked about this matter, Tang Rou still couldn’t hide the fear on her face. It seemed like she still had a lingering fear.

But this wasn’t surprising. The door suddenly appeared in the middle of the night, and the strange world behind it. No matter how one looked at it, this story seemed to be developing into a strange story. But fortunately, this world didn’t have such a background.

As a result, Chen Heng quickly analyzed the reason for Tang Rou’s encounter. It should have been a misalignment of space. This ruin should have existed in the form of a secret realm, and there was a certain degree of spatial overlap with the ruins in the outside world.

This situation was not strange. It was found around many secret realms. Those secret realms relied on this method to stabilize themselves and not shift their positions or even collapse their structures.

The reason why the woman suddenly came here should be where she lived. She should have been very close to the spatial weakness of this ruin, so at a special time, she opened a hole on her own, she was allowed to walk in.

This was also the result of their excavation of the ruin. After all, if they did not excavate, the spatial coordinates of this secret realm would be extremely stable. Naturally, this situation would not occur..
