No. 9 Ancient Civilization Ruins!

Over the Pacific Ocean, a dark blue fighter jet is flying at a speed of Mach 16!

After learning the details of Luo Feng's accident from Jiang Fang and the others, Luo Zhe immediately obtained the address of the No. 9 Ancient Civilization Ruins Jiang Fang related precautions from them. He then hurriedly boarded a fighter jet and headed directly to South America.

No. 9 Ancient Civilization Ruins are located deep in the Amazon Rainforest of South America. They are ancient Ruins used for "selection and elimination" trials and are considered one of the less dangerous Ancient Civilization Ruins. In the past, some Spirit Reader, especially High-level War God -level Spirit Reader, have failed when they entered, but there has never been a precedent of death.

Inside the cabin.

"Master, this so-called No. 9 Ancient Civilization Ruins is very likely a special site set up by some alien force to select peripheral disciples." Xiao Qi quickly drew this conclusion based on the available information.

"Oh? Is there any basis for that?" Luo Zhe asked curiously.

Xiao Qi, with Crystal Core nestled within the Black Bracer, analyzed earnestly. "First of all, every War God who successfully enters this No. 9 Ancient Civilization Ruins receives a set of Black God Set. You must know that the Black God Set is one of the most suitable combat suits for Planetary Level beings in the universe, and it's incredibly expensive. How could an ordinary Ancient Civilization Ruins be so generous as to give it away?"

"Furthermore, this No. 9 Ancient Civilization Ruins ruins particularly favor Spirit Reader. According to existing data, the success rate for Fighter is less than 30%, while the success rate for Spirit Reader is nearly 50%, and the injury rate for Spirit Reader is also much lower than that for Fighter."

"Based on this, we can infer that this is the Ruins an alien force selected its peripheral disciples, and this alien force seems to place a greater emphasis on Spirit Reader," Xiao Qi said.

Upon hearing this, Luo Zhe lowered his head and fell into deep thought.

After a long pause, Luo Zhe raised his head, his eyes burning with determination, and said, "No matter what, even if I have to turn this Ruins No. 9 upside down, I will find Luo Feng. I really don't believe that a mere Ruins can cause Luo Feng to suffer an unexpected setback."

At the very least, we need to see the person alive, or at least their body!

After nearly three hours of flight, Luo Zhe's intelligent fighter jet finally came to a stop over the Amazon Rainforest in South America.

After stepping out of the hatch, Luo Zhe couldn't help but frown. The area around Ruins No. 9 was actually a wasteland, and the wasteland was surrounded by an endless jungle, where monsters could be seen from time to time.

"It seems that this Ruins No. 9 is rooted underground," Luo Zhe said after glancing around.

Sizzle~

Suddenly, the ground shook, and the ground split open to both sides, creating a passage five meters wide leading underground.

Beep!

A silver-gray elevator suddenly rose directly to the ground, and then the elevator doors opened, revealing an elderly man in a red robe.

"Councilor Luo Zhe, hello. I am Jason, the head of the human settlement base at No. 9 Ancient Civilization Ruins." The Red-Robed Elder bowed slightly.

"Hello, Jason."

Luo Zhe nodded. "The entrance to Ruins No. 9 is underground?"

"Yes, Representative Luo Zhe."

Jason, the Red-Robed Elder, hesitated for a moment before tentatively reminding him, "Councilor Luo Zhe, the opening period for No. 9 Ancient Civilization Ruins has ended for this year. May I ask why you came here this time...?"

"I know that. Take me to the entrance of the Ruins." Luo Zhe waved his hand and said.

Jason hesitated slightly, seemingly unsure whether to offer further advice, when he suddenly felt Luo Zhe's gaze scrutinizing him like that of a powerful, King-level monster. His hair stood on end, and he quickly and respectfully replied, "Yes! I understand! Please follow me."

However, Jason was secretly thinking to himself, "It's common knowledge that even powerful councilors can't enter the No. 9 Ancient Civilization Ruins. Even the First Speaker Second Speaker can't do anything about these Ruins. What are you, a newly appointed councilor, doing here?"

But the Red-Robed Elder was quick on his feet, pressing the button as soon as Luo Zhe entered.

Drop!

The elevator doors closed, the elevator started moving, and it descended rapidly.

Whoosh! A moment later, the elevator doors opened, revealing a black corridor made of cast alloy, with blinding incandescent lights shining brightly from the ceiling.

After passing through nine checkpoints in the black corridor, Luo Zhe finally arrived at a spacious hall of several hundred square meters. He glanced around and saw nearly a hundred humans from all over the world gathered in the hall, most of them sitting in front of computers playing entertainment games.

The arrival of Luo Zhe and the Red-Robed Elder Jason caused quite a stir among the surrounding staff.

"Hey, didn't the Ruins open for the year? Why are people still here now?"

"Wow! Look at how respectful Jason is, could he be a congressman?"

Shh! They're coming this far, watch your manners!

This base was built jointly by various forces on Earth. The Five Great Powers, the Two Great Dojos, and the HR Alliance are all qualified to send people into the No. 9 Ancient Civilization Ruins. The many members here also come from different forces.

"Where is the entrance?" Ignoring the commotion, Luo Zhe scanned the surroundings but didn't see any passage resembling an entrance to the Ruins. He then asked Jason, who was standing respectfully to the side.

"Open the entrance!" Jason winked at the crowd and shouted.

After receiving Jason's coded message, even though everyone was a little confused, they didn't object and obediently did as he said.

Click click click--

Before long, the curved alloy wall at the front of the hall cracked open, revealing a circular passage.

This is the passageway to the No. 9 Ancient Civilization Ruins. If it is not opened manually, the passageway will only open automatically after the War God walks out.

Luo Zhe looked into the passage. The first two or three meters of this circular passage were made of alloy, but further in... it turned a strange dark brown, as if formed by intertwined tree roots. And at the end of the passage was a mirror that constantly emitted a strange brown light. Perhaps it was a mirror?

Jason explained, "Congressman Luo Zhe, the entrance to this No. 9 Ancient Civilization Ruins is right there. Just follow the passage forward and enter the glowing mirror. When the Ruins's passage is open, the mirror shines a dazzling bright white; when it's closed, it emits a brownish light. You..."

"Thank you." Luo Zhe nodded, indicating that he understood, and then walked straight towards the passage.

"Click click click~~"

The alloy walls of the passage behind it are closed.

After Luo Zhe disappeared, the hall erupted in chaos.

"Jason, wasn't the passage to the Ruins closed this year?"

"Is this a newly appointed councilor? Doesn't he know that all councilors are barred from entering Ruins No. 9?"

"Everyone should be prepared to suffer. Who knows, after this councilor gets his comeuppance at the entrance to the Ruins, he might take it out on us."

The staff present chattered amongst themselves. Jason in his red robes, looking at the closed passage, couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, "Judging by how young Councilor Luo Zhe is, he must not have experienced any major setbacks. Well, after this humiliation in the Ruins passage, he'll know there are always people more capable than him, and the world is vast."

"Alright!"

Jason shouted, "Mind your own business! What right do you have to discuss the affairs of the councilors?"

Inside the strange passage.

Luo Zhe's feet stepped onto the ground formed by the tangled dark brown tree roots. A strange smell permeated the air. Luo Zhe's nose twitched slightly as he sniffed, "Hmm? This smell is coming from these tree roots. It's somewhat similar to the scent of the Black God Set." Only when you get very close can you detect a faint but persistent scent from the Black God Set.

"A mirror of light? This is the entrance to the Ruins." Looking ahead, there was a round mirror emitting rays of brown light.

"Xiao Qi, begin the reconnaissance!"

Luo Zhe waved his right hand, and the dark blue light from the black Bracer on his hand swept across the mirror.

Ahem~ First update. There was a small problem with the previous chapter, which has been corrected.
