Chapter 60: Entering the Ruins
After obtaining permission to enter the no.9 ruins, Qin Mu did not do anything special but continued to study in the laboratory of Jiangnan First Military Academy. To be able to adjust Zerg units as soon as possible, Qin Mu focused most of his energy on learning about gene editing and restructuring.
It must be said that due to the upgrade of the laboratory's level, those who could stay in the laboratory now were all top-tier experts. Whenever Qin Mu had questions that he didn't understand, he could get answers by asking anyone.
Although he was very talented, he had been studying for too short a time, and compared to these senior researchers who were at least 40 years old, there was still a significant gap.
Perhaps because Professor Zhou had spoken on his behalf, or because of Qin Mu's powerful strength, and also because he had provided a primary Horde Leader swamp newt for the regeneration potion, everyone in the laboratory had a good impression of him. Whenever he had something that he didn't understand, he could ask anyone for help and receive a warm response.
Every day was spent either learning in the virtual space or participating in experiments everywhere, accumulating experience.
Until the evening of the 28th, Qin Mu stopped his frantic learning and rested for a night, preparing to enter the no.9 ruins the next day.
The next day, Qin Mu arrived at the military's gathering point riding on the Golden Flame Eagle. When he arrived, two military Wargod experts had already been there.
"As expected of the newly promoted Invincible Wargod, just this Golden Flame Eagle alone is enough to make you the strongest beast tamer on Earth."
One of the military Wargods looked at the Golden Flame Eagle with a wingspan of over fifty meters, leaving at eight times the speed of sound, with a look of shock in his eyes. Relying solely on speed, the Golden Flame Eagle was among the most powerful in the high Horde Leader level monsters.
"You flatter me, it was just a lucky taming."
Qin Mu did not put on airs and chatted with the two of them. They had met when he was joining the Palace of Wargods, but this was their first meeting in reality.
For Qin Mu's modest words, the two of them naturally did not take them seriously. They knew that the monsters Qin Mu had tamed were far more than one, and he could even afford to give a primary Horde Leader monster to the military's laboratory.
This time, only the three of them from the military would enter the no.9 ruins. When everyone was present, they boarded a smart fighter jet arranged by the military to proceed. Under the guidance of a soldier, the three of them went to a lounge to prepare for boarding.
When Qin Mu entered the lounge, there were already several people waiting inside. One of them was a middle-aged man with a hint of white hair at his temples, but he stood there like a sturdy pine, with eyes sharp as a hawk. When he saw Qin Mu and the other two enter, his gaze softened a bit.
This person was Li Dawei, the highest commander of the Southeast Military Region, and the email Qin Mu received was sent by him.
Another person standing at the head, wearing combat gear and with a lean physique, was Jia Yi, the strongest person in the military.
"You're here. This time, only the three of you from the military will enter the no.9 ruins, led by Jiang Long, and board the smart fighter jet."
Li Dawei looked at the three of them, especially pausing when his gaze shifted to Qin Mu.
"The two of you are fine, you've been wargods for many years and have rich experience. But Qin Mu, I originally didn't agree with you entering the ruins. You're only nineteen years old, and you've only been a fighter for three months, still in the explosive period of strength improvement, with a great chance to become an above Wargod powerhouse. You are the most talented Invincible Wargod in our military, and the future heavy responsibility of the military may fall on your shoulders. In my opinion, there is no need to take risks at all."
Li Dawei paid special attention to Qin Mu and spoke without reservation. In his view, just for a set of Black God Suit, Qin Mu had no need to risk entering the ruins.
He had experienced the Great Nirvana period, gone through countless wars, and to defend against the invasion of sea monsters, he had been stationed at the frontline base of the Huangpu River for many years.
Unfortunately, he had taken the wrong path in his early years, and his strength had stagnated at the level of a mid-level warlord. Therefore, he could only pin his hopes on the next generation, among whom Qin Mu was the one he valued the most.
Speaking of which, Qin Mu actually had some connection with him, because Qin Mu's father had originally been a soldier under Li Dawei's command. Knowing this, Li Dawei felt somewhat guilty and paid even more attention to Qin Mu's every move, even taking on the role of an elder.
"But Jia Yi said that fighters should be brave and diligent, pursuing the limits of life, even if there are numerous difficulties, they should go against the current. On the path of martial arts, I am not as good as Jia Yi, so I will not stop you, but I hope you will be cautious and come back alive."
Originally just standing to the side, Qin Mu was taken aback by Li Dawei's words and confidently said,
"I will be cautious and definitely come back alive." Knowing the true nature of the no.9 ruins, Qin Mu was naturally confident.
Jia Yi, hearing Qin Mu's confident words, revealed a smile on his originally serious face. "You seem very confident, actively applying to enter the ruins to explore the unknown. Pursuing strength is a good thing, and the military will certainly not stop you."
Jia Yi also had high hopes for Qin Mu and was clear about his talent. He had even privately given Qin Mu a Spirit of Nature. He knew that to go further on this path, just having good talent was not enough. To achieve great success, one needed great perseverance and great courage.
During this time, he had also been paying close attention to Qin Mu. After becoming a fighter, even an Invincible Wargod, Qin Mu had never indulged in pleasure but had devoted himself to studying and cultivating, fighting monsters, almost like an ascetic.
Good talent, strong strength, courage, perseverance, and a single-minded focus on cultivation, and coming from a standard military family.
Jia Yi, born into a military family, was himself a legend. His father, and even his grandfather, were all soldiers, participating in almost all the wars big and small since the founding of China. He himself was also a protagonist-like character, of the trash-to-treasure type.
He was weak and sickly, with a small physique since childhood, but he rose against the heavens during the Great Nirvana period. When the martial arts system was not yet mature, he relied on his own exploration to become an above Wargod powerhouse, saving countless Chinese civilians. Afterward, he took up the military banner and became the pillar of the Chinese military. He was practically a standard protagonist template.
"I believe you can pass the assessment smoothly."
After encouraging the three of them a few words, Jia Yi did not say much more and arranged for the three of them to board the plane to the ruins. He was also very busy and had specifically come over this time just to meet Qin Mu.
Inside a blood-red disc-shaped fighter jet, a tall and sturdy man looked at Qin Mu with some emotion.
"Jia Yi previously asked me to pay attention to your cultivation, but in such a short time, your strength has directly surpassed mine."
Qin Mu was removing the control of the Black God Suit. The ruins did not allow the use of the Black God Suit, and removing the control was a bit troublesome, requiring actively controlling the Black God Suit to expel the absorbed blood.
"Captain Jiang, the reason my strength could improve so quickly was entirely due to the Spirit of Nature given by Jia Yi. It wasn't because of myself."
This statement was indeed correct. Without that Spirit of Nature, Qin Mu's strength would at most be that of an intemediate Wargod spirit master.
"That's also because you have good talent. Ordinary people who consume it cannot become Invincible Wargods."
Jiang Long shook his head and manipulated the combat watch on his wrist, sending some information over.
"This time entering the ruins, Lu Dun and Dong Xingchen, you two will enter the A-type channel. Qin Mu, you will enter the B-type channel. Here is the detailed information we have collected. You should take a close look at it first."
After expelling the Black God Suit, it turned back into a bracelet. Qin Mu picked up the bracelet and handed it to Jiang Long to keep for him.
Qin Mu had joined the Huashan organization and was part of the second group, with Jiang Long as the group leader. They had had many interactions over these days, and it was no problem for him to keep the equipment.
"Alright, I'll take another look." Qin Mu had seen this information before, but he still took another look.
"The no.9 ruins is a type of assessment ruins. After entering the depths of the ruins, everyone's experiences will be different. The difficulties are also different, and even Invincible Wargods will encounter crises." As Jiang Long spoke, he operated the smart watch.
"The information I just sent you includes a translation software. The language and characters in the ruins are different from any on Earth. With the translation software, it can save you a lot of time and increase the chances of passing the assessment."
While Jiang Long was arranging the matters of entering the ruins, the blood-red disc-shaped fighter jet flew towards its destination at a speed exceeding ten times the speed of sound. At such a speed, even the Golden Flame Eagle was far behind. By the time Qin Mu and the others had carefully reviewed the information, the fighter jet had already arrived at its destination.
The blood-red fighter jet hovered and landed, and the cabin door opened. Under Jiang Long's lead, Qin Mu and the others walked out of the fighter jet. The area around the fighter jet did not look like a military base but was a piece of wasteland, with a dense forest further away.
A sound of metal interlocking came, and the ground split open, revealing an underground passage that was five meters wide. An old man in a red robe rode a silver elevator up to greet them.
"Wargod Jiang Long, welcome. This time, the military has a total of three people entering the ruins, right? People from other forces have already gone in. The ruins will close in three hours. Let's enter the ruins first."
Jiang Long nodded and did not say much.
The group took the elevator down and, after passing through a black corridor made of alloy and a total of nine checkpoints, arrived in a spacious hall. There were nearly a hundred technicians in the hall. When they saw Qin Mu and the others, they greeted them. Everyone in the base was congratulating them. Life underground was very monotonous, and they might not see outsiders for a year. The ruins were not entered every year either, as they were too dangerous.
"Are you ready to enter the ruins?"
All of them nodded.
"Very good, open the entrance channel." the old man in red ordered.
The alloy wall in front of the hall split open, revealing a round passage. This round passage was made of alloy for the first two or three meters, but further inside, it was a strange dark brown color, as if formed by the entanglement of roots. At the end of the passage, light was constantly emitting, like some kind of teleportation channel.
Everyone was shocked by this scene, which was definitely not something Earth's current technology could achieve.
"Is this the assessment base of the Yun Mo Planet Sect?"
"After multiple strength feedbacks from the Zerg and the use of a Spirit of Nature, my spirit amplitude has reached 36 times. My brain width should have reached 18, allowing me to trigger the elite channel assessment."
A flash of light appeared in Qin Mu's eyes, and without further delay, he strode towards the ruins.
This moment, he had been waiting for a long time.
