Chapter 570

They have now been transported to this level by the deck, which is the first level.

And there are many forks in the road on each level.

Relli looked at Nokote.

Meanwhile, Nokote was using the 'Special Mecha Dragon' to analyze the safest route.

Then, based on Nokote's analysis, Luo Mio and the others also headed towards the stern of the first level.

After walking for a while, the group also came down the stairs to the second basement level through the stern of the ship on the first floor.

Upon arriving here, the group found themselves in an area surrounded by dense forests.

The room was covered by a glass-like material, and the ceiling was hemispherical.

Judging from its appearance, this place must have experienced a fierce battle, which completely destroyed the ecosystem that was maintaining it, causing it to cease functioning altogether.

At this moment, Airi also spoke.

"In order to find the right route forward, we will have to split up into multiple groups."

Since there was no aura of the mythical beasts around, in order to advance the investigation, the group had to split into multiple teams and investigate separately.

The investigation team was quickly selected.

The group consists of Lux, Nokote, and Airi.

Philphi, Tirfa, Relli in one group.

Lisha, Kurokushifa, Sheris a group.

Luo Mio and Celestia were in separate groups.

After parting ways with the others, Luo Mio went to a certain place in the ruins alone, and then used the properties of the 'Blade of Immortality' to cut open the space and arrive at the deep interior of the ruins.

Looking at the dilapidated buildings around her, Luo Mio frowned slightly.

"It seems that when Poseidon released it from here, it caused indiscriminate damage to the entire ruins."

After a moment of silence, Luo Mio spoke.

"Ai-chan".

"Understood, boss!"

In her mind, Ai-chan remained silent for a moment, and then spoke to Luo Mio.

"Boss, when you've gone about 5,000 meters forward, descend two levels into the space below, then turn left and go 10,000 meters forward to reach your destination."

"Um."

After listening to what Ai-chan said, Luo Mio nodded slightly, then wielded the 'Blade of Immortality' and cleaved open the space.

Then, following the route Ai-chan had indicated, they slowly walked towards their destination.

Finally, Luo Mio arrived at the door of a room.

Luo Mio's destination was the library, the room in the entire ruins that managed ancient documents and books.

After entering, Luo Mio narrowed her eyes slightly.

"It seems that only this place has escaped the impact of the battle."

As she spoke, Luo Mio walked to the bookshelf and looked at the books that recorded ancient documents.

With Ai-chan's help, Luo Mio directly found ancient books about 'Oroboros'.

However, unlike the "Sixth Ruins: The Little Garden", it contains damaged documents.

Because it has been in the abyss for many years, the "Third Ruins - Ark" remains intact except for some important areas that were destroyed by Poseidon.

Looking at the contents, Luo Mio narrowed her eyes slightly.

'Changing Machine Dragon.'

This was the first time Luo Mio had heard this term; it didn't seem like any other name for the Divine Machine Dragon or the three General Purpose Dragoride.

Luo Mio looked down.

'The Zeroth Ruin - Changing Machine Dragon...'

"The Zeroth Ruin..."

Upon seeing this, Luo Mio's azure eyes flickered slightly.

It's worth noting that only seven ancient ruins have been discovered worldwide so far.

And this Zeroth Ruin...

Luo Mio said thoughtfully.

"So that's how it is. The so-called Zeroth Ruin, or the Changing Machine Dragon, is actually 'Oroboros' itself..."

Although there is no record of the origin or secrets of the Zeroth Ruin, according to Luo Mio's intuition, Ouroboros, who possesses the name of infinity, is definitely related to the Zeroth Ruin.

Then, Luo Mio also looked down.

However, there was no further content below.

She let out a soft sigh, and Luo Mio's azure eyes fell into deep thought.

'Looks like I'll have to find an opportunity to go to the Yumir Theocracy.'

At that moment, Ai-chan's voice suddenly rang out.

"Boss, go take a look at the book in the third row, fifth column on your left."

Upon hearing Ai-chan's words, Luo Mio looked in the direction Ai-chan indicated.

After taking a book from the bookshelf, I opened it.

Luo Mio's eyes also flickered slightly.

"This is..."

The book contained detailed information about all the mythical beasts.

All I heard Ai-chan say.

"The seventh floor of the 'Third Ruins - Ark' is a production area specifically for producing Divine Beasts; all Divine Beasts originate from this production area."

Luo Mio nodded.

The book features a series of mythical beasts familiar to Luo Mio, such as gargoyles, Diablos, slimes, and Titans.

In addition, there are other mysterious mythical beasts that have never been recorded in any other books.

At this moment, Luo Mio's gaze fell on the bottom.

'The Finality Godbeast...'

Looking up, one could see seven Finality Godbeast depicting seven ruins.

Poseidon, destroyed by Luo Mio, and Yggdrasil, which was given the name of the Yggdrasil...

However, Luo Mio's gaze fell on the lowest level.

'The annihilation weapon that will lead the world to destruction—the humanoid Finality Godbeast, 'Holy Eclipse'.'

"Human form..."

"Annihilation weapons..."

Luo Mio's mind began to work rapidly.

"So you mean... the seven Finality Godbeast the Seven Ruins are actually the so-called 'annihilation weapons'?"

"No..."

Luo Mio's azure eyes flickered slightly.

"Should we say... that the seven ruins themselves are the real weapons?"

"The Finality Godbeast should only be a weapon to protect the ruins and annihilate intruders."

And at that very moment—

"Beep beep beep beep beep—!"

A sharp, urgent alarm suddenly rang out in the ruins.

Upon hearing the voice, Luo Mio slightly raised her eyes.

Upon exiting the library, one would see that the blue and white lights that once illuminated the corridor had now turned into a shimmering bright red.

At that moment, through the dragon's roar, Kurokushifa's voice reached everyone's ears.

"Attention everyone! The Ark is now on high alert and will release three mythical beasts!"

"The first one will attack the target that issued the alarm! The second one will patrol the entire ruins! The third one will run outside the ship and attack the surrounding area!"

Everyone who heard the news wore a very solemn expression.

"Lisha asked."

"How did you find out about this, Kurokushifa?"

I'll explain about that later.

At that moment, Luo Mio's voice suddenly rang in everyone's ears.

"Unfortunately, I seem to have encountered the second and third ones as well."

Chapter Thirty-Eight: Happy New Year!

Luo Mio said calmly, her gaze fixed on the two phantom beasts that had appeared ahead.

One of them Diablos, a winged humanoid phantom beast that Luo Mio was very familiar with and had encountered in the "Sixth Ruins: The Little Garden".

The other one, however, has a very peculiar appearance.

From its appearance, it is a huge wolfhound, its body is so huge that it completely exceeds the scope of the animal species. Judging from its body, it is at least as big as a house.

Its entire body is covered in purple fur that is almost black, and it has sharp eyes that contain a murderous and crazed gaze.

Its ferocious mouth contained perfectly aligned, seamless teeth, as sharp as knives and daggers.

Most importantly, it has two heads!

And it also has seven constantly writhing snake heads on its back.

Despite its enormous size, half the width of a corridor, it was exceptionally agile.

While dodging Diablos's attacks, Luo Mio kept her eyes on the canine mythical beast.

The new mythical beast Luo Mio before her eyes was one she had seen in the books in the library earlier.

'Orthrus'.

"Jiga..."

Diablos roared at Luo Mio, and his sharp demonic claws lashed out at Luo Mio.

Seeing this, Luo Mio calmly held the blue 'Star Abyss Phantom Spear' and slashed fiercely at Diablos who was attacking!

"Call out----!"

Fortunately, Diablos was also very perceptive and quickly sensed the aura and sense of danger emanating from Luo Mio. Then, his demonic black wings flapped, and he suddenly flew upwards, successfully dodging Luo Mio's attack.

But in Diablos's eyes, a dazzling Golden radiance flashed.

In the next instant, Luo Mio, wearing 'Star Armor', arrived in front of it with lightning speed.

The 'Star Abyss Phantom Spear' in his hand also turned into a brilliant and dazzling gold.

Then Luo Mio gently moved her hand, and the 'Star Abyss Phantom Spear' in her hand suddenly thrust forward.

"Pfft—!"

A very clear sound of a body being pierced was heard.

Then, on either side of Diablos, two more dazzling 'Star Abyss Phantom Spear' appeared and pierced through Diablos' body in a crisscross pattern.

—"Phantom Flame Spear"!

As the rift pierced Diablos's body, brilliant golden flames gradually seeped out.
