Mecha Star Wars.

Chapter 1318 Return to the Ancient Times

With the new point reference, the GPS on Noah finally came into play.

Lin Fan was lucky, as his first target was a desolate mountain forest with few people.

Tall trees are lush and green, their dense canopies connecting overhead. Sunlight filters through the leaves, shimmering through the gaps between the tender green leaves, creating a dreamlike beauty.

Because no one visited, the bushes below grew wildly, blocking the ground into an impenetrable green sea, making it impossible to step.

Fortunately, Lin Fan and the other two were flying on swords, so they didn't have to go into the bushes that were as tall as a person and cut a path with their bare hands.

Even with voice prompts, it is still difficult to identify the forest because it is wrapped in a large amount of shrubs and has lost its original shape.

After spending some time and burning some green plants, Lin Fan finally found the entrance to a cave hidden deep in the dense forest at the foot of a mountain.

The fire burned its way through, reducing the weeds that had clogged the cave to ash. Smelling the scorched air, the three men found the fire-blackened stone door at the bottom of the cave.

"It's hidden so deep, no one can find it except us, right?" Antonio half blocked his nose with his wrist.

Lin Fan took out the slime key, sized up the cave, which was no more than two meters in size, and said to Antonio, "I can't use it outside. I'll embed the key and transform the moment I'm sucked into the light. But if that light channel is in the ancient world, it might be exposed to some radiation."

"Small problem!" Antonio made an OK gesture. "It's just one second of radiation at most. Even if we eat it, we can digest it. Don't worry."

Lin Fan thought about his previous experience with radiation and felt that it was not a problem, so he turned to Le Zheng Yuanqing.

"Elder brother..."

"I'll wait here," he said, brushing off some ashes from the ground before sitting down cross-legged. "You guys go do your own things. If you come out from somewhere else, let me know."

On his knees was the Lingxi third generation that Lin Fan had rubbed with his hands while recuperating in Yinyuewu.

The third generation of Lingxi, forged and improved with black crystal meteorite, only has voice and text functions, but its signal is much better than the second generation that would lose signal at a distance.

Chengkong even took one away to help her test it. Almost all offices across the entire Apollo World were able to communicate with Changtianmen without any obstruction.

It is indeed a bit of an exaggeration to say that it is globally available, but at least there should be no obvious signal vacuum areas in the entire continent.

Lin Fan spent most of his time exercising, and he didn't produce many third-generation Lingxi skills.

Apart from those who remained in the hands of her master Chengkong, the only ones she had were Le Zheng Yuanqing, Antonio, Wu Yi, Guan Ying, and herself.

Compared to high-tech communicators that would emit energy waves to the Noah during communication and thus might be discovered by the Changtianmen boss, Lingxi's way of conveying messages through the "intranet" signal of the Bolun world is much more reassuring.

I just wonder if the improved Lingxi Third Generation can communicate through the barrier between the two worlds? Coincidentally, Lin Fan also planned to take this opportunity to give it a try.

Seeing that Le Zhengyuanqing had no intention of going in, Antonio said quickly, "What's the point of you staying outside? What if we really get into danger and are dying? You won't be able to save us in time!"

He didn't really think Le Zhengyuanqing needed to help him, he just couldn't bear to see him sitting idle. His mouth was itching, so he couldn't help but grumble a few words.

Le Zhengyuanqing had already closed his eyes, frowned, and said to him bluntly: "If you go in with your mecha body and die inside, you might as well die inside."

"Then, Senior Brother, let's go in." Lin Fan grabbed Antonio, whose eyes were as big as copper bells and who only cared about food and not beatings, said hello to Le Zheng Yuanqing, and pressed the key on the door.

In an instant, a bright white light seemed to cover the entire world, and a suction force came over.

Lin Fan felt his feet leave the ground, and the moment he was in the path of light, he let go of Antonio and transformed into a star.

Even with the mecha on his body, the suction force around him did not decrease.

However, the river of light that was originally seen by the naked eye had gaps when viewed from inside the mecha - white light strips were quickly moving back and forth at a speed that could not be distinguished by the naked eye, occasionally revealing a gap that could not be covered, but was quickly submerged by another light.

Lin Fan didn't see the figure nearby. He stared at the data on the panel and called out, "Anton?"

"I'm here!" Antonio's voice was full of joy. He turned around and put aside the unpleasantness just now. "This is my first time here. Hey, you say..."

Before he could finish, the white light in front of him suddenly spread out to both sides, and the scenery in the middle at the end suddenly enlarged and appeared in front of him in the blink of an eye.

Lin Fan felt his body sink, and he was already in the familiar light and shadow.

The wings spread out, and the huge white mecha hovered in the air.

When I turned my head, I saw the black figure of Apollo, twisting and turning around, having a lot of fun.

"Oh! I'm dying of suffocation!" Antonio was like a wild horse that had finally been released from its cage. After making a few big turns, he rushed to Xingchen and slowly descended with her.

Antonio had been with Le Zheng Yuanqing for so long, with no use for his mecha, and was constantly suppressed by him. His dissatisfaction had long since overflowed. However, in front of Le Zheng Yuanqing, he had to be humble and endure it.

He is the dignified mecha warrior Apollo. Excluding that damn man, he is one of the strongest fighters on the Noah. His life has been so frustrating for more than a year!

It’s still better here. There’s no annoying guy here, and there’s no need to worry about various reasons. Let the mecha that seems to be rusting out come out to breathe.

Lin Fan looked at the familiar dark red sky. The barren land was barren, with no grass growing. The air was filled with a foul smell mixed with salt and decay...

"Is this the ancient time?" After Antonio got over his excitement, he felt that this desolate place might not be as interesting as he thought.

"It should be ancient, right?" Lin Fan looked at the detection system on the mecha panel. The radiation level was always exceeding the standard and flashing red.

Although the environment is not exactly the same as that in the swamp, the two secret realms are separated by tens of thousands of miles after all, so it is normal that they are different.

Just looking at the amount of radiation, the entire Perun planet, except for the ancient world, should not be considered by him.

Lin Fan tried to use Lingxi to send a message to Le Zheng Yuanqing, but as expected, the message failed.

It's normal to think about it. The barrier that can block radiation is naturally not easy for signals to penetrate.

Antonio also joined in the fun and used Lingxi to send a message to Lin Fan, and it actually worked.

Lin Fan immediately thought: "The Lingxi signal is transmitted through the roots of the World Tree. The World Tree was still alive and functioning in ancient times."

"But the world trees of the ancient world and the new world are not connected. They belong to two independent local area networks?" Antonio looked around the barren wilderness and did not see a single weed, let alone a world tree.

"When I was exploring the underground spiritual veins, I felt that the roots of the world tree in the new world were a bit too cramped compared to the world trees in other worlds. When I explored deeper, I couldn't detect any vitality." Lin Fan said.

"At the time, I simply thought that perhaps because the Ancient World was abandoned, the World Tree, which had been exposed to radiation, was also cut off along with the Ancient World. The part that remained in the Ancient World was struggling to purify the radiation damage, while the newly separated part supported the New World. Therefore, the lack of spiritual energy made sense."

"Now that the LAN is working smoothly, does this mean that the World Tree below has more power than we thought?" Antonio asked. "What should we do next?"

Lin Fan said, "The original plan remains unchanged—collect radiation samples, survey the map as much as possible, and don't deliberately search for any trace of Pine. Now, let's add two more. If we can find the World Tree below, I'd like to see the data inside."

"Okay, what about another one?"

Lin Fan paused and sighed softly, "If I can successfully explore the swamp forest, I want to find Jin Tong's body. The situation was urgent at the time, and I didn't take care of her. She was brutally killed by Ao... Now that I'm back, I have to get the little girl out..."

Antonio watched as Xingchen's head drooped slightly. He could almost see Lin Fan's melancholy through his mask and quickly agreed, "Okay! Let's go find him together and bring him out."
