"Everyone who enters Ruins will be randomly placed anywhere in Ruins, which covers an area of three million square kilometers. Most of the time, it is almost impossible for two people who enter Ruins to meet each other. At least based on our current experience, there has never been an example of two people being thrown into the same area."

With the morning sunshine, Zhang Anxia put his hands on the steering wheel and drove the car on the road to the airport.

He Ao looked back at the brand new small door and the Mental Hospital signboard that were gradually going away, and then moved his eyes to the side.

Next to him is a box made of mithril. Inside the box is the Sealed Item "Magician's Hat" he obtained before.

Next to Mithril Box, there is an open small Metal Box box, with mithril test tubes filled with black and purple solution neatly stacked inside.

This box has three floors in total, with six mithril test tubes placed on each floor, for a total of eighteen mithril test tubes.

He Ao had only fifteen Corpse Flower flowers before. Zhang Anxia heard that he needed them, so he took out the three Corpse Flower flowers that West Capital Research Institute had in stock and prepared a solution for him.

These mithril test tubes and Mithril Box containing Magician's Hat were all "lent" to him by Old Zhang.

He Ao originally wanted to reject these things, but Old Zhang just patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile,

"You are now a Research Institute person. You represent West Capital City Research Institute. You can't be too shabby."

So He Ao was not polite and accepted it directly.

After all, there is indeed danger in Ruins, and he does need these things, so there is no need to be coy.

With these eighteen Corpse Flower solutions in hand, he can try to kill even a C-level player.

The worst thing Old Zhang can do is help him if he needs it in the future.

There are comings and goings, and this is how people's relationships are built.

In the past, when he was in the most difficult situation, Lao Liu often gave him more money overtly or covertly, and he was not polite.

Later, he also handled many cases for Lao Liu. Although he received money from them, Lao Liu was also promoted.

It is not far from West Capital City Third Mental Hospital to West Capital Municipal Airport.

Soon they arrived at the airport terminal.

Old Zhang bought two tickets, departing from West Capital at nine in the morning and arriving at East Capital at twelve noon.

When they arrived, they were about to board the plane, and they went straight through the security check.

He Ao was worried that Mithril Box wouldn't be able to pass the security check at first, but he passed normally.

Then he followed Zhang Anxia all the way into the waiting area, checked the ticket for the stewardess, and got on the plane.

"First time flying on a plane?"

Zhang Anxia looked at his somewhat reserved and curious look and asked softly.

"Yeah."

He Ao nodded slightly.

Central Land's air tickets are actually not expensive most of the time, but He Ao had no need to travel far before.

In Ander's memory, he has the experience of riding an aerostat, but there is still a big gap between Copy World's aerostat and Main World's plane. Moreover, after returning to Main World, He Ao's memory of the characters in Copy World will gradually become blurred, and it will not be as clear as in Copy World.

"It's okay. It's just like other means of transportation. It may bump a little when encountering air currents. Just get used to it and it'll be fine. There's no other problem."

This is the first time Zhang Anxia sees curiosity about unknown things in He Ao's eyes.

It was at this time that Zhang Anxia felt that He Ao looked like a child who had just turned eighteen.

"Yeah."

He Ao followed Zhang Anxia and sat in the middle seat by the window.

Old Zhang bought two economy class tickets, and it was not easy to continue talking about Ruins at this time and place, so he became quiet.

As for why I bought economy class tickets.

Because economy class can be reimbursed.

Liu Nan is not with them. The official researcher and Special Appointed Researcher themselves are separate. Because many Special Appointed Researcher have the need to hide their identities, the privacy will be higher.

Of course, she doesn't go with the regular researchers either.

Private Plane, who was sitting on Liu Zhengyun last night, passed first and sent a message to He Ao when she left.

"What's wrong? If you want to take pictures, you can take them after the plane is in the sky. The scenery in the sky will be much better."

Zhang Anxia looked at He Ao staring blankly at the wings outside the window and asked softly.

"I remember reading the information about this glass before. It is three-layered." He Ao knocked on the airplane window. "I was wondering, how much force would it take to break it? Is it legal to break this thing? It should be illegal, right? If you break this thing to escape when you are in danger, is that legal?"

If you think about how to hijack a plane, it should be normal.

Zhang Anxia's brows jumped, and he began to wonder if he was getting older and couldn't keep up with the thinking of young people.

The three hours on the plane passed quickly.

He Ao didn't actually break the airplane window to see if it was legal. Instead, he quietly turned on his phone and looked through the magic books he had downloaded offline.

As his understanding of magic deepened, he began to think that the Miracle Magic he needed might not be too complicated.

Some simple blindfold magic, if implemented, can actually achieve some kind of miracle, which can be very helpful in life and combat.

During the flight, we also encountered turbulent airflow, causing the aircraft to rock up and down.

Zhang Anxia originally wanted to remind He Ao not to panic, but when he turned his head, he found that He Ao was still reading the e-book calmly, as if the violent shaking of the entire plane had no effect on him.

After arriving at East Capital, the two went out to have lunch.

Then Zhang Anxia continued to tell He Ao about the rules of Ruins when no one was around.

To sum up, it is actually very simple.

First of all, the channel opened by Ruins has no actual shape.

It does not show a vortex or a door like the film and television works.

It is in a specific position and will not cause any changes in this position, but as long as someone comes close, you can sense a certain "call" that sounds in the subconscious.

This description reminded He Ao of the "noise" that would ring in Hyper-memory's mind when he started up Hyper-memory after he advanced to D level. However, there is a difference between this active, conscious "calling" with information and the chaotic background noise.

But speaking of background noise, after He Ao returns to Main World, and then starts Hyper-memory, the messy background noise is basically inaudible.

I don't know if it is isolated by something.

Let's get back to the subject, back to Ruins.

There is actually a limit to the number of people who can hear the "call" of Ruins.

According to Old Zhang, at first only ordinary people could hear these calls, and only ordinary people could enter Ruins. As time went on, the level of people who could hear the "calls" became higher and higher.

Rank F, E-class, even D-class can hear the call now.

Research Institute speculates that this may mean that Ruins is "getting closer" to Main World on some level.
