Chen Heng looked at Tang Rou and didn’t say anything about his many thoughts. Beside him, Tang Rou took the freshly roasted meat skewer and chewed it. It looked like she had been hungry for a long time.
It wasn’t surprising, and she had already been in this place for quite some time. Coming from an unfamiliar place to this secret realm, it was already not easy for her to survive until now, not to mention anything else. After all, she was only an ordinary person, not a Martial Artist or a Beastmaster. Naturally, she didn’t have much strength.
In fact, if Chen Heng hadn’t heard her call and accurately arrived at this location, she might have died today. Chen Heng recalled a related matter. It seemed that there was a news report of a missing person’s skeleton being found in the original trajectory of destiny.
Now that he thought about it, the missing person who had been found in the original trajectory was mostly Tang Rou. But this was something that had only happened in the original trajectory of destiny. Now, because she had met Chen Heng, her destiny trajectory had changed, and the tragedy had been avoided.
“Let’s go after you finish eating.”
Chen Heng glanced at her, looked at the wound on her leg, and then silently stretched out his hand. A magical change began to happen. A pure power blossomed from the woman’s body. Then, a faint numbness appeared on her body.
The previously injured part of her body was healing. The wound on her body was disappearing at speed visible to the naked eye. Sitting on the ground, looking at this miraculous scene, Tang Rou couldn’t help but be stunned: “This is…”
“I’m a Beastmaster. I can barely use some healing methods.”
Chen Heng said softly. Looking at Tang Rou in front of him, he said lightly: “If you feel better, then let’s move on.
“Follow me.”
He said softly. Then, he stood up and silently walked into the distance. Beside him, Tang Rou sat on the ground and stretched out her legs. Her muscles began to react. Her leg, which had been severely injured, didn’t feel anything at all. It was as if it had never been injured before.
It was exceptionally magical. Could a Beastmaster do this? Tang Rou couldn’t help but feel puzzled.
The so-called Beastmasters and Martial Artists were indeed very powerful from her knowledge. But the true strength of these professionals should be their exuberant vitality and destructive power. In terms of healing, there shouldn’t be anything special about them.
She was puzzled, but she didn’t hesitate in her actions. She directly strode forward and caught up with Chen Heng. At this moment, Chen Heng was her only hope of survival.
Although this area was a secret realm, it was also filled with wild beasts. It was almost as if she was in the wild. If there were no one to protect an ordinary person like her, she would probably be killed by wild beasts in no time. Her previous experience had clearly proved this point.
This was why she didn’t hesitate and immediately chased after Chen Heng. In front of her, Chen Heng didn’t walk too far. He didn’t have any special reaction to Tang Rou’s actions. Since he had already seen her here, if he could save her, then he would save her.
Chen Heng still had this bit of mercy. Of course, for Chen Heng himself, this was also part of his usual disguise. After all, it was better to disguise himself as a good person than to directly reveal that he was a bad person. Therefore, Chen Heng would normally not reject such a kind act.
After passing through the area in front of him, he came to the other side.
“It’s so realistic…”
Walking on the road, Chen Heng looked at the scenery around him. Old trees were growing around him, and they looked huge. Around the jungle, there were many tiny living things. There was a perfect biological system in this secret realm and a lot of ordinary life in it. There was even a moon.
Chen Heng raised his head and looked at the sky. Under his gaze, the appearance of the silver moon in the sky was so clear and eye-catching. At his first glance at this silver moon, Chen Heng was sure it was fake. However, the moonlight was real and contained real energy.
“The complete simulation of the secret realm has almost completely restored the real world.
“The civilization that built this arcane realm back then had very advanced technology…”
It was like opening a secret realm and building it into a complete small world. Chen Heng could actually do something like this. However, if he wanted to create a secret realm that was as detailed and real as the outside world, then he wouldn’t be able to do it. This also proved that he still had a lot of room for improvement. He could study harder.
As he moved forward, they unknowingly arrived at another place. It was a huge city. The area of this secret realm was not small. In fact, it was huge.
However, even such a huge secret realm had extremely conspicuous coordinates, just like this city in front of them. In this secret realm, this city in front of them was the absolute core. No matter what region you were in or where you were, as long as you looked up, you could faintly see the shadow of this city.
It was so eye-catching. Without a doubt, such a city was also the core of this secret realm, so there wouldn’t be many surprises.
“It’s directly located here?”
Chen Heng couldn’t help but be a little surprised when he actually walked to that city. It seemed that there weren’t too many empty things in this secret realm. The people who built this secret realm didn’t have the intention to hide the things but to display them openly.
“Only those who can bear the will of a hero can succeed in the Hero’s Trial.”
When they reached the city, the information entered Chen Heng and Tang Rou’s minds. Chen Heng wasn’t surprised by this. On the other hand, Tang Rou’s face revealed a look of shock.
“The Hero’s Trial…”
Standing beside Chen Heng, her face revealed a look of shock. At this moment, she seemed to have thought of something: “This is the Inherited Land of the Ancient Heroes?”
As soon as she said this, Chen Heng’s gaze fell on her, with a hint of surprise.
“What do you know?”
Looking at Tang Rou, Chen Heng was a bit surprised and then said softly.
“Just… just a rough idea… …”
Tang Rou hesitated for a moment and then considered her words before saying: “I once saw some ancient books, and there were some things written on them.
“Legend has it that the heroes of the ancient civilization would leave behind treasures that had forged their hearts and wills and place them in a suitable place, waiting for someone to inherit their will in the future.
“Such an inheritance is called a Hero Inheritance…”
“Continue.”
Beside her, Chen Heng’s expression was calm as he listened to Tang Rou’s words. He didn’t change much and only spoke softly.
“The so-called Hero Inheritance seems… to be related to the so-called mecha.”
Standing on the spot, listening to Chen Heng’s words, Tang Rou first nodded her head. Then she hesitated for a moment before continuing, “It’s said that the oldest mecha was excavated from the Ancient Hero Inheritance.”
This was all she knew. As for more, she didn’t know.
“The things in this ruin are indeed related to the mecha.”
Chen Heng, who was next to Tang Rou, nodded his head when he heard Tang Rou’s words. Then, he said softly: “The information you read is true.”
Tang Rou’s words also gave Chen Heng some gains. If the information she said wasn’t wrong, then the so-called Hero Inheritance should be a trial to obtain the Ancient Mecha.
Did the people of the ancient civilization view the person who controlled the Ancient Mecha as a Hero? It seemed to be very appropriate. As for the test of willpower, this made Chen Heng feel a little surprised. Could it be that the Ancient Mecha had a requirement for the willpower of the operator who wanted to make use of its power?
Wait a minute… Chen Heng thought of a person he had met before.
Liu Sheng. He was Chen Heng’s opponent in the Qika League. He had the unique ability to strengthen himself continuously. And his power seemed to be related to faith. It seemed like the simpler his will was, the purer his faith was, and the more powerful the power he could unleash.
“So that’s how it is?”
Standing where he was, Chen Heng was somewhat enlightened. At this moment, he had a vague feeling of understanding. Unintentionally, he seemed to have solved one of his previous doubts. If things like Ancient Mecha really had something to do with willpower, then Liu Sheng was very likely to have something to do with Ancient Mecha.
It was very likely that it was the core of an Ancient Mecha. This could explain his strange behavior earlier. Things seemed to be getting more and more interesting.
Chen Heng raised his head and looked not far away. Many corpses were lying on the ground, and the number was not small. The appearance of these corpses was not the same. Some looked like skeletons, some had turned into dried corpses, and some even retained their appearance when they were alive.
Their faces were ferocious, and they looked like they were in great pain. There were also people with broken expressions on their faces, which was exceptionally clear. These seemed to be the people who had died in this place in the past.
“It doesn’t seem like they died from external injuries.”
Chen Heng stood where he was and looked at the corpses in front of him. All sorts of thoughts flashed through his mind. “If I didn’t pass this trial, could it inflict me some sort of injury?”
This possibility was also possible. However, it didn’t matter. Chen Heng silently turned around and then looked in front of him as he walked out.
“You…”
To the side, Tang Rou’s expression was a bit surprised when she saw Chen Heng’s actions, but it was already too late. In front of her, as Chen Heng took a step forward, his figure also disappeared, directly disappearing from the spot.
The huge city in front of her was like a huge beast, directly swallowing Chen Heng in one gulp and disappearing into nothingness. Only Tang Rou was left on the spot. A gentle breeze blew around her, bringing a hint of coldness to her body.
Suddenly, she shivered. After hesitating for a moment, she took a step forward and walked over. After taking a step forward, her figure also disappeared. A strange feeling appeared.
One second ago, she was still outside the city, but she was teleported away to a completely unfamiliar place the next moment. The place in front of her was a spacious space. The surroundings were very bright, and a faint light shone on it. It was very eye-catching.
However, the only thing that made Tang Rou feel lucky was that Chen Heng was still in front of her. When she saw Chen Heng, she let out a sigh of relief. Then, she walked forward.
“Please enter your name.”
A mechanical voice sounded in her ear. Then, a screen appeared in front of Tang Rou. She was stunned for a moment. It took her a while to react. To her, the screen in front of her was like the interface of a tablet computer. It was very clear. There were only a few options.
“Please enter your name.”
In front of her, the light prompt was still appearing. Standing on the spot, Tang Rou came back to her senses. “Tang Rou.
“Dear Miss Tang Rou, would you like to begin your trial?”
After entering her name, the mechanical voice in her ears immediately changed into a gentle girl. She addressed Tang Rou as Miss.
“If you want to participate in the trial, please choose Yes. If you don’t, you can choose to give up and watch from the side.
“The trial may have a certain amount of risk. Please choose carefully. If you have a disease or other condition that the Empire thinks isn’t suitable for you to participate in the trial, please choose to give up. Don’t take the risk.
“Your health is the most important and precious thing to us.”
“You’re quite smart…”
Hearing this inexplicable hint, Tang Rou couldn’t help but twitch her lips. She couldn’t help but hesitate for a moment. But after hesitating, she finally couldn’t resist and chose to agree. By now, she had probably figured out what was going on in this place.
Without a doubt, this should be a training ground set up by the ancient civilization. If she passed the training, she would be able to obtain the secret treasure left behind by the ancient hero, the legendary Hero Mecha.
The young man beside her must have come for this. The temptation was undoubtedly very great. Under the circumstances where she had the chance, Tang Rou felt that if she didn’t even try, she would definitely regret it in the future.
Thus, she ultimately chose to agree.. At this moment, she didn’t know that if nothing unexpected happened, she would soon regret her choice.
