Chapter 1130 - Secrets of Ancient Ruins (2/2)
After Erin wreaked havoc on the moon, everyone began focusing their attention on the ruins, which explained why various countries dispatched experts to conduct investigations. The excavation job on the fifth ruins that was stopped earlier was once again put back on the agenda. And now, Orchid Heart was here to ask Rhode if he wanted to join them for the excavation.
Without needing further explanations from her, Rhode reckoned that the fifth ruins was built by the Creator Dragons’ subjects who were sent to Earth. It seemed like they had intended to treat this place as a colony, but as for what exact trouble they faced afterward, why they abandoned this place, scattered the Door of Akasha, and retrieved and hid the key, it went to show that something was wrong.
“What’s the specific situation?”
After hearing the news from Orchid Heart, Rhode pondered grimly and asked. The young lady answered quickly.
“For safety, we will be sending out a joint experts investigation team, with the intention of conducting an investigation on the fifth ruins. They will set off in a few days.” Orchid Heart spoke casually.
After hearing her response Rhode thought about it and said, “… so then, there shouldn’t be any issues for us to join the investigation team, right?”
“All of you?”
Upon hearing his answer, Orchid Heart widened her eyes in doubt, before restoring her half-asleep look.
“It isn’t impossible, but it is somewhat difficult. Besides… This investigation team is formed by various countries… There should be no problems if two or three of you were to join them. But any more than that…”
Even though Orchid Heart didn’t complete her sentence, Rhode understood her hesitation. After all, Rhode’s group was too young and mostly females who didn’t seem like scholars, researchers, or militants. This investigation team involved a human crisis and wasn’t formed for an outing. It was surely impossible for his group to not stand out like a sore thumb and gather suspicions.
“I honestly suspect something terrible may happen in those ruins. I suppose I can guess some of the origins of those ruins. Logically, they shouldn’t be what they are now, so I reckon the people who built the ruins must have met with some mishaps, just like how we faced the shadowy creatures on the moon. For the sake of safety, I think it’s best for all of us to join them. I’m sure you’re aware of the consequences of newbies heading into a high-level dungeon, Senior Heart. Even with veterans leading the team, they face a high risk of being killed.”
“…”
Orchid Heart revealed a dignified expression. She was apparently present to observe the fight between Rhode and the shadowy creatures. If it was just like what he mentioned and such creatures existed on Earth, there would be huge troubles ahead. Due to this reason, she lifted her head after a short period of consideration and nodded slightly.
“Alright, I will try.”
