Chapter 283 First Shot, First Kill
Chapter 283 First Shot, First Kill
Before entering the ruins, Lin Feng had already gripped the hilt of the Demon Spirit Blood-Drinking Sword and begun to charge up his power.
After Lin Feng stepped into the ruins, the gate slammed shut.
Inside the ruins is a circular metal hall, over ten meters high and thousands of square meters in size, with walls and ceiling gleaming with a blue metallic luster.
After everyone entered the hall, the lights on the ceiling flickered, drawing everyone's attention.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Lin Feng unleashed a powerful slash, targeting the four people from the Dai family who had entered the ruins from the side of the crowd.
The innate shadow guard among the four members of the Dai family reacted extremely quickly. He pushed out the three Dai family assassins beside him to block Lin Feng's sword energy, while he himself lunged to the side.
The blinding light of the sword illuminated the entire hall, making it impossible for anyone to open their eyes.
The sword light flashed and disappeared in an instant, turning the three assassins of the Dai family into ashes.
The Innate Shadow Guard's face was as pale as paper. His right arm had just been grazed by the sword light, and he had decisively cut off his own right arm, suffering a serious injury.
A beeping alarm sounded in the lobby, and red lights on the lobby walls flashed rapidly.
Anyone can see that this is a bad sign.
Lin Feng was somewhat better off, at least he was familiar with the modern artifacts in the ruins.
The other martial artists were so frightened that they stood rooted to the spot, too afraid to move.
Ji Yunyi, standing in the crowd, looked at Lin Feng with astonishment. He had told this man not to fight in the ruins, but the man hadn't listened at all and started killing as soon as he entered.
Lin Feng did this to guard against unknown dangers.
This ruin belongs to the Dai family, and the Dai family members are certainly more familiar with it. How can we explore it with peace of mind without killing the Dai family members first?
Lin Feng originally intended to kill everyone who came in, but he changed his mind after meeting Ji Yunyi.
Someone always has to go ahead and scout ahead; killing them all might not be a good thing.
However, the innate shadow guard from the Dai family was clearly prepared and managed to dodge his fatal sword strike.
The red lights in the hall of the ruins flickered for a moment.
Something resembling a probe appeared on the wall and scanned the entire hall 360 degrees without any blind spots.
After the scan, a series of chattering sounds filled the hall.
On the wall, a screen lit up, displaying a large amount of unknown text.
Lin Feng couldn't understand the text, so he activated his eye scanner and tried it out. He was surprised to find that he was actually able to understand the meaning of the text.
This is a wonderful surprise. Understanding these texts can help avoid many risks and make exploring the ruins much more efficient.
The gist of the text is, "Humans from China are prohibited from using force in the ruins; this is only a warning."
If anyone resorts to force again, they will be subjected to a psionic attack.
Lin Feng looked up and noticed many tubular objects resembling gun barrels on the ceiling of the hall.
The others in the hall were trembling with fear.
Seeing that the shadow guard was looking at him with resentment, Lin Feng frowned and a bold idea came to his mind. He took a step and slowly walked towards the innate shadow guard from the Dai family.
Everyone stared at Lin Feng, horrified. This man was too audacious; why wasn't he acting according to his past experience exploring ruins?
This time, I'm definitely going to be killed by Lin Feng.
When the shadow guard from the Dai family saw Lin Feng walking towards him, his heart began to race.
He was almost killed by Lin Feng with a single sword strike.
Lin Feng's actions caused the ruins to react abnormally, and he still wouldn't give up, he even tried to kill himself.
The Shadow Guards were also assassins, and they were not afraid of death, but they were worried about not being able to complete the task assigned by the patriarch.
As Lin Feng approached, the shadow guard felt an overwhelming killing intent wash over him, and he involuntarily retreated step by step.
Lin Feng only dared to use his killing intent to intimidate, and dared not make any attacking moves.
He wanted to use the rules of the ruins to force the Shadow Guard to attack him, so that the ruins would launch a psionic attack on the Shadow Guard.
The shadow guard kept retreating until he finally leaned against the cold metal wall inside the ruins.
Rumble.
Just then, the metal wall slowly rose up.
This wall used to be a large door.
All eyes were focused on the door behind the shadow guard, eager to enter and explore.
However, Lin Feng, exuding murderous intent, stood between the crowd and the gate, and for a moment no one dared to make a move.
The shadow guard stood close to the gate, and after the gate was raised, a fierce glint flashed in his eyes.
The shadow guard raised a hidden weapon and shot it at Lin Feng, then turned and rushed into the gate.
The result was a sudden and unexpected change.
Blue beams of light shot out simultaneously from more than a dozen holes in the hall.
These beams not only pierced the chest of the fleeing shadow guard, but also knocked down all the hidden weapons he threw.
The shadow guard looked down at the fist-sized hole in his chest and collapsed in despair.
Lin Feng breathed a sigh of relief, thankful that he hadn't made another move.
Otherwise, he might have died on the spot like this shadow guard.
Lin Feng glanced at the large hole in the Shadow Guard's chest and noticed a faint blue halo around the edge of the hole.
This doesn't seem to be a laser, and the lighting in the ruins hall is also strange; it's not the kind of electricity I'm familiar with.
The word "psychic energy" appeared on the screen that just displayed the text. Could it be that the civilization that built the ruins used a kind of psychic energy?
But what is psychic energy?
We can only wait and explore it ourselves.
When the Dai family's innate shadow guards died, several people in the crowd behind Lin Feng lost their color and seemed to feel a sense of sorrow for the dead. However, they quickly regained their composure and their expressions turned into the same shock as the others.
Lin Feng looked up and saw a flat road about two hundred meters long and twenty meters wide behind the newly raised gate.
The road is slightly sunken, and at its end there are ten statues of figures spinning in place, with a narrow door behind them.
These statues are about two meters tall and resemble smiling, silent children, with their eyes shining a faint blue light like spotlights.
Lin Feng observed carefully for a while and found that the statues rotated at different speeds and at different angles.
Lin Feng suddenly remembered a game he used to play as a child called "Red Light, Green Light."
However, Lin Feng was unsure and did not know the specific rules.
Lin Feng did not attempt it rashly, for a mistake could cost him his life.
Lin Feng stepped aside and said to the people behind him, "I will only kill members of the Dai family; others are free to explore the ruins."
The group looked at each other, then walked together to the door, looking at the wide road and the statue at the end of the road.
A sharp-eyed person pointed to the door behind the statue and said, "Go through this area to enter the next door and continue forward."
The other person said, "It's obvious to everyone, but we don't know what kind of traps or mechanisms are hidden in this area."
Ji Yunyi walked to Lin Feng's side and said, "Senior Brother Lin, I've figured out a trick. When you walk forward, you can't be hit by the light in the eyes of those statues. You have to stop immediately when the statues turn to look at you."
Lin Feng asked in confusion, "How did you know?"
Ji Yunyi smiled and said, "It's just experience."
The others' eyes lit up when they heard what the two said.
Lin Feng hadn't originally planned to hide the way to pass the level. The more people who survived, the better, as he would need people to explore the way for him in the later levels.
A bold martial artist pushed through the crowd and stepped onto the wide road in front of the door.
A series of rapid beeps sounded.
Two unknown characters, one large and one small, appeared on the wall above the statue's head, constantly changing.
Lin Feng activated his scanning ability and immediately felt a sense of unease.
