Depressed

Chen Hao asked Xiao Mei in his mind out of frustration, "Xiao Mei, can you control this lousy place?"

"Master, I just tried. Although I can hack it, the advanced artificial intelligence here has a very high level of evolution. If I try to crack it, it will take more than an hour, and I'm afraid the base's artificial intelligence will directly initiate the self-destruct system."

Chen Hao felt somewhat unwilling. "Could it be that we can only slink away from here?"

Xiao Mei's mood dipped. "I'm sorry, Master. I couldn't help you. Xiao Mei only managed to copy some data from inside."

Hearing this, Chen Hao was startled for a moment. "Wait, Xiao Mei, when you said you copied data, does that mean all the data could be copied?"

"Yes, Master. When those crystal ropes wrapped around Master, I already used these transmission lines to copy the data of the entire ruins."

"Hahaha, Xiao Mei, well done, you are simply amazing! Who says you couldn't help me? Didn't you just copy so much data? Among the data here, there must be cultivation manual methods for martial artists and spiritual thought masters, right?"

Hearing Chen Hao's praise, Xiao Mei's mood instantly recovered. "Mm, yes, Master. Inside there are Spiritual Thought Master 312 Forms, Martial Artist Basic 256 Forms, Secret Art Duntian, Secret Art Arc Blade, Secret Art Breaking Void... In total, there are 36 spiritual thought master secret methods and 72 martial artist secret methods."

Chen Hao no longer dawdled and directly entered the passageway.

About 300 meters away from Chen Hao in a fork of the passageway, on the path tangled with black tree roots, a blurry figure appeared. The figure dropped like a water droplet onto the floor of the fork, gradually solidifying into a black-robed person wearing a silver-gray mask.

The black-robed person rapidly ran along the fork toward Chen Hao's direction. Upon seeing Chen Hao, his eyes immediately filled with murderous intent as he charged toward Chen Hao. This was a special assessment puppet with the strength of an invincible war god.

Chen Hao's originally good mood was instantly ruined by the appearing puppet. "Who are you looking down on! There's only one lousy puppet, what a trash ruin! (ò_óˇ)"

He drew his S-Grade Battle Blade, then unleashed the fourth heavy form of the Nine Heavens Thunder Blade, flashing forward and slashing toward the opponent with a single strike.

Seeing this, the puppet crossed its fists over its head, but unfortunately it was directly cleaved into two halves by Chen Hao's 3.5-times invincible war god attack. "Bah! Pfft, trash!"

Walking past the passageway, Chen Hao saw a bracer-like piece of equipment placed on the platform ahead. Without even looking at it, he casually grabbed it, then walked out through the opened passageway door.

As he walked, he muttered under his breath, "Damn it, miser! Sightless piece of trash! I hope you get slapped to death by someone the moment you revive."

After Chen Hao went out, a beam of light and shadow appeared on the platform, finally forming a bald crystal person whose expression was somewhat puzzled. "Shouldn't one be very happy to get the reward? Why did he look so reluctant when seeing the other person? It's a pity that the other person's brain-domain width is only 17, falling just short of reaching..."

While the people in the hall were guessing whether this war god could succeed, the passageway door opened.

Then this war god walked out carrying a pair of gloves with a gloomy expression, radiating an aura that kept living beings at a distance.

Seeing Chen Hao come out, the red-robed elder asked, "War God Chen Hao, did you succeed?"

Originally, the red-robed elder also wanted to ask Chen Hao why he came out so quickly, but when he saw the bracer held in the other person's hand, he became extremely shocked because he recognized that it was a state of the Black God Set before master-recognition.

However, the speed at which the other person passed through was simply too fast. This should be the fastest in the history of the ruins opening, and he thereupon hurriedly notified the Yao Rao elite guard who had just left.

"Send me away." Chen Hao didn't offer much explanation and directly requested to leave. Not daring to ask too much, the red-robed elder accompanied him to the surface.

As soon as the two of them arrived at the surface, a figure dropped from the air. Yao Rao looked at Chen Hao with great curiosity. "You were so fast?"

Chen Hao's mouth twitched. "It's just this fast! A trash-like ruin."

"You should have successfully cleared it, right? Why do you feel so resentful? Haven't you already obtained the Black God Set? Don't tell me you insisted on getting hurt first!" Yao Rao was somewhat puzzled by Chen Hao's lingering resentment.

Chen Hao sighed, unable to explain it to her. Should he tell the other person that this time he had prepared to fight a protracted war, and even planned to stay in the ruins for the full three years before coming out? You must know he had brought all the classic texts of Earth with him, yet he had only been inside for three minutes before being kicked out!

Fortunately, there was the copy harvest from Xiao Mei, otherwise it really would have depressed him to death.

Watching Chen Hao's depressed expression, Yao Rao did not ask further. She brought him flying onto the Qiankun Fighter and then headed toward the headquarters.

"What is your relationship with Jiang Fang?" Yao Rao asked with some curiosity. "Don't tell me you have nothing to do with each other. If you had nothing to do with her, she wouldn't have told me about your situation and asked me to help you strive for the rights and resources you deserve."

Chen Hao shook his head. "Sister Fang and I really don't have anything going on. Sister Fang just thinks she owes me a favor, that's all."

Is that so? Yao Rao was clearly somewhat unconvinced. "Originally, I thought you would need some time to go through Site 9 this ruin. When you came out, Jiang Fang might have already become a Councilor-rank powerhouse. Now it looks a bit doubtful, you came out much too fast."

Chen Hao was somewhat nonchalant. "Who knows, maybe."

Seeing Chen Hao's attitude, Yao Rao felt strange inside, as if Chen Hao was certain Jiang Fang would succeed, which aroused her extreme curiosity.

Ever since she learned about the other person's data, Yao Rao had developed immense curiosity toward the rise of this little man.

The other person's rise was too fast, like a shooting star. In a mere month, he went from an ordinary person to a powerhouse of the invincible war god level, even faster than the Chief Hall Master's rise.

Protagonists of novels before the Great Nirvana wouldn't dare to write like this. Yet Chen Hao's external signs indicated that he was merely a spiritual thought master with talent.

No abnormality was the greatest abnormality. Not only herself, but probably even other councilors and countries were filled with curiosity about Chen Hao, hoping to obtain the secrets on him.

However, Chen Hao's strength improved so rapidly that estimatedly no country was willing to offend a powerhouse at the invincible war god level.

Perhaps the only ones who could bring him danger were those powerhouse figures at the councilor rank.

"After going back this time, you probably won't stay at the headquarters. But no matter where you go, you must be careful. Not all councilors are as harmless as the headquarters side. Actually, your best choice is to stay here at the training camp headquarters as a teacher. That way, no one will dare to come here and touch you."

Chen Hao smiled. "Thanks for the reminder from the Yao Rao elite guard, I will be careful." In his heart, however, he sneered, What if they are councilor-rank powerhouses? If they dare to look for trouble with your daddy, I'll slaughter them all the same.

The reason Chen Hao thought this way was not because he had gotten full of himself, but because of a telekinetic weapon he had previously synthesized to use as a trump card.

As a first-grade telekinetic weapon synthesized from S-Class Flying Knives, the Nine-Blade Disc actually bore a layer of secret markings on the weapon.

Once activated by mental power, it could easily slice through the defense of a first-grade force battle suit unless the opponent's telekinetic battle suit also possessed a layer of secret markings and could be driven for defense.

Although it was only the most basic secret marking, it directly made his Nine-Blade Disc the top-tier first-grade telekinetic weapon.

The most important thing was that it only required nine times psi amplitude to drive it, making the usage requirements extremely low, and its value was no lower than ordinary second-grade force weapons.
