Chapter 1721 The Secret of the Main World? (Long Chapter, Requesting Monthly Tickets)
Therefore, what the people of the main world perceive as the call of the 'ruins' is actually a 'warning'?
Did the entity behind the scenes completely reverse the meaning of the entire call through simple 'interference' and by prolonging the rhythm?

The true meaning of this 'call' might be, 'Stop loitering around here, there's nothing good here, run for your life!'

After being isolated, it became '...look around here...there's something good...'

So this is how you can play with the occult?

He shook his head and sighed softly.

If he hadn't become a martial angel and possessed such a strong ability to sense the essence of the world, even if he had become an angel, he probably would never have discovered this.

His ability to remember things wasn't in perceiving the world, and even with the help of the Eye of the World, he couldn't descend to such a deep level of the world.

He Ao glanced at the fragment of the Eye of the World in his hand, its brilliance now diminished.

In the instant he entered the world, he could vaguely sense that the sound did not come from the relic passage, but from the 'main world'.

To be precise, when the main world was disturbed by the relic passage, a certain occult structure deep within it was triggered, broadcasting this 'warning message'.

Just like a smoke detector, it will definitely sound an alarm when smoke is triggered.

However, the premise of having a smoke detector is that there is indeed a 'fire' risk here, and someone 'installed' a smoke detector.

Under normal circumstances, there could not be such a mysterious structure resembling an alarm device in the depths of the world; it must have been artificially created.

Furthermore, the deity who created the passage to the ruins seems to be well aware of the existence of this alarm structure, otherwise He would not have 'affected' it.

This suggests that the 'encounter' between the ruins and the main world is a highly probable event.

The 'person' who created the alarm device in the main world seemed to have 'foreseen' this situation long ago, and the gods in the ruins also knew that some kind of alarm structure existed in the main world.

Both sides have some understanding of each other.

Beyond the passage to the ruins, there is likely some deeper mystical connection between the main world and the ruins.

Moreover, since someone can set up such a mystical structure deep within the main world, he must be of very high status and have a high level of mystical expertise.

So where has he gone now?
It seems there are quite a few secrets in the main world as well.

He Ao rubbed his temples.

Moreover, the secrets of the main world are more abstract than the secrets of the ruins, and there is absolutely no clue about them.

However, judging from this connection, following the trail of the ruins should lead to some clues about the main world.

Dispelling the thoughts in his mind, He Ao looked up at the sky.

The 'call' that resonated in his heart grew even stronger.

It seems to be calling people to hurry up and search for treasure.

But faintly, He Ao seemed to hear the 'urgency' and 'urging' in the voice.

It was like an alarm bell, growing more and more urgent.

He raised his hand, signaling the surrounding staff to leave the area.

As everyone was leaving, the invisible 'call' seemed less urgent.

“This time the ‘calling’ sounds a bit off,” a researcher next to He Ao said with some doubt. “In the past, as the ruins were opened, the sound should have become more and more urgent, but this time it seems to have become calmer.”

"Perhaps it's because we've always had people enter the passageway, but we've never tried letting people leave," He Ao casually remarked.

Then he glanced around and saw that the crowd was already leaving quickly, moving out of the area covered by his calls.

It has also left the area covered by the ruins passage.

He Ao raised his hand, and a blurry figure emerged from the illusion and walked towards the central area of ​​the ruins passage.

That was an avatar he had just created. It was indeed easy for the Martial Angel to create avatars, and he could even briefly descend upon a soul. He was getting more and more adept at it now.

The surrounding researchers also picked up data recording instruments and watched the area in front of them intently.

Just then, the dim fragment of the Eye of the World in He Ao's hand began to shimmer with a faint light once more.

He Ao paused for a moment, then looked up at the west.

Ika Republic, Mote City
Yan Yue stood atop a high-rise building in the city center, holding a walkie-talkie in her hand, nervously gazing down at the entire city.

"This is Squad 19, we've received your call," a somewhat tense voice came through the walkie-talkie as a cold wind swept across the sky.

"Arrange for the evacuation of personnel immediately, according to the original plan," Yan Yue shouted without hesitation.

Her tone was calm, and she seemed confident and composed.

"Received!" came the voice on the walkie-talkie.

"Squad 27, calling our voices." Almost the instant the walkie-talkie finished speaking, a new voice rang out.

"Execute according to plan!" Yan Yue said quickly.

At the same time, she pressed the broadcast button directly, "All squads, listen up. If you hear any calls for help, do not report. Immediately proceed with the evacuation plan."

"Yes!" A series of voices rang out from the walkie-talkie.

Yan Yue lowered her head and looked down at the street below. She could vaguely see some busy figures moving about in the street.

She turned to her secretary, who had been hesitant to speak, and asked, "How are things in other parts of the West?"

“We’ve received numerous messages from various countries saying they’ve heard the call,” the secretary said quickly. “Fortunately, we have the Knights’ help, otherwise we definitely wouldn’t have enough manpower.”

"Delayed efficiency is always reliable." Yan Yue breathed a sigh of relief and continued to look at the street outside.

She placed her hand on her chest, feeling her heart pounding, thinking, "If I can save one, I will."

Elen City, Republic of Rhodan
Figures in uniforms moved quickly through the streets, dispersing the people who were still on the streets.

At the end of the street, two figures peeked out from the alleyway, watching the people dispersing the crowd ahead.

The man on the left was thin with prominent cheekbones. He stared at a fountain in the center of the street and said quickly, "See that? That should be the fountain. The divine guidance is right there."

"They seem to be driving away the people around them," said a shorter man with freckles on his face on the right. He sneered, "These bastards definitely want to hoard the treasures of the secret realm for themselves."

“That’s just how these people are,” the skinny man on the left said in a low voice, his voice hoarse with laughter. “Once we enter the secret realm this time and bring back the treasure, we can also act like tyrants in this city.”

“Hahaha, that’s right,” the shorter man on the right paused, looked at the fountain, and asked in a low voice, “Do you think there’s really treasure there?”

“We are chosen by the gods,” the skinny man on the left sneered. “Have you forgotten the lottery wins we’ve had, and the money we found on the street?”

He raised his hand, pulled a piece of paper from his pocket, glanced at the harsh words on it, and said, "The gods will guide us to become rich, and from now on, the world will revolve around us."

"Okay, okay!" the shorter man replied excitedly. He looked up at the street ahead, where most of the crowd had dispersed. "When do we make our move?"

“Don’t rush, wait a little longer,” the skinny man on the left said, watching the crowd gradually empty out ahead. “We need to find the right opportunity, and we must prevent others from sneaking in and taking a share of our treasure.”

"Yes, yes, yes!" the short man nodded excitedly.

The crowd on the street dispersed more and more quickly, and soon the street was almost completely empty.

The knights gradually dispersed from the center of the street, keeping the crowd outside.

Just then, two figures suddenly rushed out from the alleyway and headed towards the center of the street.

A young member of the knight order saw this and quickly reached out to try to stop the two figures rushing out.

boom--

The only response he received was a sharp gunshot.

The bullet struck his chest with a muffled thud. He looked down in a daze, pulled open his collar, and saw the marks on his bulletproof vest.

He looked up at the two figures rushing into the street.

The shorter man on the right was holding a gun, pointing it at his chest, and laughing loudly, "Hahaha, you bastard, don't even think about ruining our good time!"

As he spoke, he prepared to fire again.

Just then, another older member of the Knights, standing next to the younger member, pulled out a submachine gun from behind him.

"Don't fucking interfere!" The skinny guy on the left immediately grabbed the shorter man, and the two of them sped up to the fountain in the center of the street.

An invisible yet urgent call echoed in their ears.

"Hahaha, we're going to make a fortune!" The short man looked at the knights around him who had already taken out their guns, and seeing their indifferent expressions, he laughed loudly.

"Until we meet again, everyone!" The skinny man raised his hand, pulled his companion, hid behind the fountain, and smiled at everyone.

The next instant, some invisible force spread throughout the street, enveloping the two of them, and they suddenly disappeared from the spot.

Central Earth · Eastern Capital
Standing on the side of the park, He Ao watched as his clone was enveloped by an invisible force and disappeared into the center of the park. He slightly raised his eyes and felt the rhythm of the entire main world's bottom layer.

At this moment, the turmoil at the bottom of the world finally came to a temporary halt.

He Ao raised his hand, holding up the fragment of the Eye of the World, feeling the gradually fading radiance of the fragment.

He vaguely realized the fundamental principle behind the Eye of the World's fragments 'sensing' the opening of the ruins.

That is by sensing disturbances at the bottom of the world.

The presence of disturbances indicates that the passage to the ruins is about to open.

Previously, opening the passageway to the ruins required a lengthy preparation process.

Therefore, the fragments of the Eye of the World can always sense the opening of the passage in advance and accurately anchor their positions.

It looked like a 'prophecy'.

It's even more accurate than prophetic tools.

However, this time, the Eye of the World fragment did not sense the opening of the relic passage in advance.

Because there wasn't much time to prepare for the opening of the relic passage this time, the passage was opened completely in a very short time.

Even though the fragments of the Eye of the World can still sense the disturbances at the bottom of the world, because the duration of these disturbances is so short, their predictive effect is almost nonexistent, and they can only be used as a locator for the approximate opening of a passage.

But why did it take so long to open the passage to the ruins before, but not anymore?

Was it because that deity bestowed more power? Or because the continued opening of the ruins' passages created a sufficiently strong mystical connection between the main world and the ruins, leading to a qualitative change from a quantitative one?
Or perhaps both are true. The connection between the two may have been at that critical juncture of qualitative change, but the deity, who seemed to be the god of machinery, gave them a sudden push from behind, causing them to cross that threshold and accelerate forward under the deity's manipulation.

It sounds like a long-distance race, where most of the distance is spent building up energy and accumulating strength, running slowly.

Finally, as we approached the finish line, we began our sprint.

However, why wasn't the God of Machines in a hurry before, but is he suddenly in such a hurry now?

Is it really time to enter the final sprint?

The reason for sprinting in a race is usually because there are other competitors.

Does the God of Machines also have other competitors?

While pondering, He Ao withdrew his gaze.

Another perspective unfolded in his mind.

It was a desolate, ruined city.

At this moment, his avatar has entered the world of the ruins.

Around him, figures appeared one after another.

They appear to be people who entered through other passages in the ruins.

However, there were very few of these people, only a handful scattered around.

The closest ones are a skinny guy and a short guy.

He Ao quietly watched these figures.

He remembered that in the past, except for the time he entered the Navigator, explorers basically never encountered anyone else when they entered the ruins.

This must be the way the ruins' passageways are consciously separating everyone, allowing them to explore the ruins freely.

This may also be part of the ritual, in order to increase the 'interaction' between the two worlds and to strengthen the mystical connection between them.

Of course, having the explorer bring the items back to the main world was a clear example of occult interaction.

But this time, the passageway in the ruins did not separate everyone; instead, it brought everyone together.

It seems that this 'ruins opening' is indeed different.

"So this is the secret realm the gods spoke of! There really is a secret realm here!" While He Ao was pondering this, the skinny man and the short man in front of him were excitedly looking around. "Where exactly is the treasure the gods spoke of!?"

At this moment, He Ao raised his head and looked up at the sky.

At this moment, it is daytime at the ruins, and an artificial sun hangs in the sky, illuminating the heavens.

And in the sky above, faint, dazzling lights shone out—those were the twinkling stars.

The light of the stars converged to form a gigantic, sky-covering human figure.

At the same time, the whole world seemed to tremble slightly.

In the next instant, a tremendous force swept across the void, and the bodies of everyone standing around were instantly shattered.

He's incarnation lasted a little longer.

Before his avatar completely shattered, he vaguely sensed some kind of unseen gaze sweeping over everything in the world.

That gaze did not seem to come from the starlight and figures in the sky.
