Everyone is fleeing the famine, my items can be upgraded

Chapter 190 Strange Object·Bonfire

The deepest part of the ancient ruins.

The ten-meter-tall heaven-level monster slowly got up, and a terrifying aura was released from it, making other monsters in the entire ancient ruins tremble.

But the strange thing is that the breath of this heaven-level monster seems to be unable to spread out of the ancient ruins, and is blocked by some kind of force.

Only players who enter the ancient ruins can sense it.

At this moment, all the players were running away frantically, each of them looking terrified.

"Is there a heaven-level monster here?"

"How is it possible? Why was there no movement at all before?"

"Run!"

In this ancient ruins, all the players were frightened and ran out desperately.

…

Through the balcony, Yang Yuan saw the heaven-level monster getting up and shot another arrow without hesitation.

Today, he will destroy the sky!

Thinking back on how much effort he had put into killing the Heaven-level Drought Demon, he only let the Fire Frisbee and the Drought Demon perish together in the end.

But now, he is no longer the same person as before.

Seeing the sky-level monster roaring at the center of the ancient ruins, he shot another arrow.

The sub-light speed arrow flashed away, and the monster at that level was unable to dodge and was instantly hit in the face.

The face of that day-level monster collapsed again, and its huge body flew backwards.

At the same time, a terrifying ripple shock wave visible to the naked eye swept across, wildly impacting the ancient ruins and buildings in all directions. Endless sand and dust were thrown into the sky, making the place covered with dust.

"boom--"

The players who were escaping outside the ancient ruins turned around and saw the terrifying shock wave sweeping in all directions.

"What kind of collision of beings is this?"

"I feel depressed even though I'm so far away..."

"At least it's a heaven-level collision!"

"terrible!"

"Why are there heaven-level creatures in the fourth-level continent?!"

All players were shocked and confused.

You must know that this is only a fourth-level continent. They have been adventuring in this ancient ruins for a while, but they did not feel the existence of heaven-level creatures before.

Until not long ago, everyone had a vague feeling of a scalp-numbing fluctuation.

But that time it disappeared in just a few seconds. Everyone thought it was an illusion, and they were not familiar with each other, so they didn't communicate much.

Until this time, that aura appeared again, and even the roar of a heaven-level monster appeared.

Everyone suddenly discovered that there was actually a heaven-level monster here.

"Could it be a monster that was suppressed in the ancient ruins before the world was reshaped?"

"That may be the case. Although the continent is now divided into levels, the levels of monsters in the ancient ruins have not changed..."

"It's too scary, go away quickly, go away quickly, get out of here..."

Everyone did not dare to neglect and rushed to escape from this ancient ruins.

…

The deepest part of the ancient ruins.

The sky-level monster quickly got up, and the wounds on its collapsed face quickly recovered. It fully recovered in less than a second, and an even more terrifying aura emitted.

…

On the balcony of the safe house.

Yang Yuan looked at the monster that had returned to its original state in the blink of an eye, and took out a strange crossbow arrow with an expressionless face.

Although there are not many exotic crossbow arrows left, each one can cause huge damage.

Especially when combined with today's golden arm crossbow.

Yang Yuan quickly loaded the rare object crossbow arrows into the golden arm crossbow and aimed at the heaven-level monster in the deepest part of the ancient ruins.

An extremely strong sense of crisis appeared, and the monster at that level suddenly looked this way, and a dazzling blue light bloomed from its body, forming an energy halo covering a hundred meters in radius.

Is it resisting the halo again?

Yang Yuan was unmoved and fired the arrow directly.

In an instant, a stream of light that made black marks appear in the space flashed away.

The resistance aura of that monster had no effect, and the stream of light directly hit its head.

"Bang——"

The head of the heaven-level monster exploded instantly, and then light flowed through the earth.

"boom--"

A terrifying ripple centered on the deepest part of the ancient ruins and swept in all directions.

If anyone were watching from the outside, they would find that the entire ancient ruins were undulating like water waves, with a circular ripple wildly surging outward from the center of the ancient ruins, sweeping thousands of kilometers across in an instant.

"Boom——"

Many players who had just escaped from the ancient ruins were thrown away.

The entire area around the ancient ruins was plowed by a terrifying shock wave.

After the shock wave, a tyrannical force of creation appeared in the body out of thin air.

Yang Yuan's face lit up and he hurriedly took out the Creation Battery. After his physical body could no longer absorb any more Creation Power, he input the excess Creation Power into the Creation Battery.

At the same time, he put away the safe house and jumped from an altitude of more than 15,000 meters.

"boom--"

He smashed a deep pit into the ground, and before the shock wave swept out, he rushed out of the pit like a cannonball and rushed towards the depths of the ancient ruins.

Everyone outside the ancient ruins only felt a black shadow rushing past them, and the next moment they suddenly felt a strong wind.

Everyone nearby was blown away by the strong wind.

"Holy shit!!"

Some people were yelling and had no idea what was going on.

Yang Yuan can move a hundred miles in one step and shuttle through the ancient ruins at high speed.

In less than three seconds, he reached the deepest part of the ancient ruins and saw the body of the melting heaven-level monster.

The corpse of that level monster quickly disappeared into thin air, leaving only a crystal-clear crystal ball-like core of the spirit floating there.

"Heaven-level core!"

Yang Yuan's face lit up, and in order to prevent accidents, he hurriedly put it into the void ring with a wave of his hand.

Fortunately, there were no surprises.

But it's a pity that maybe the arrow was too terrifying, or maybe it was the game mechanism that prevented the heaven-level monster's body from being left behind.

He killed this heaven-level monster, and in the end, in addition to gaining the power of creation, there was only one heaven-level core as a reward.

Suddenly, the flesh and blood that flew backwards rolled back, and the place was filled with blue light.

Yang Yuan's expression changed, and he turned around and ran away.

He quickly backed up for dozens of miles on the low building of the ancient ruins, then looked back and saw a piece of data appearing where the heaven-level monster had been.

A countdown, 356 days.

There was even a stopwatch on the back, beating every second.

"Could it be that in a year's time, another heaven-level monster will appear here?"

Yang Yuan was confused.

But this has nothing to do with him. One year later, he still doesn’t know where he will be.

‘The difficulty of the ancient ruins is over. Next, we will cross the ancient ruins and go to the Sandstone Castle to have a look. I don’t know if Jiayan and Yiyi will be there. ’

He stopped lingering and quickly rushed outside the ancient ruins in the other direction.

After reaching the late stage of the Earth, his strength has improved a lot, and his speed has been comparable to the limit of the Earth. The speed of the original Dragon Clan Crown Prince Ao Wuming and Luo Clan's Russell and others was almost the same as his current speed.

In less than five seconds, he rushed out of this ancient ruins.

After finding the right direction, he rushed out like an arrow from a string.

"Huhuhu..."

Suddenly the wind picked up, the sky darkened quickly, and the entire sky was covered with sand and dust.

"Sandstorm?"

Yang Yuan frowned slightly, ignored it, and continued running.

But at this moment, a faint sense of crisis appeared.

"boom!"

"boom!"

"boom!"

Suddenly there was a dense explosion all around.

Deep pits suddenly appeared one after another, rocks penetrated the sky, and the place was directly blown into a deep valley.

Yang Yuan frowned and quickly shuttled between the explosions.

"Boom boom boom..."

The bombing became more and more intensive, with thousands of explosions occurring in just a few seconds.

Even the smallest powerful explosion can blast a crater hundreds of meters deep nearby.

The most powerful explosion can even create a huge crater with a diameter of several thousand meters.

Although such explosions could not hurt him, even he felt very uncomfortable being bombarded in succession like this.

"grass!"

Suddenly, a stronger sense of crisis appeared.

Yang Yuan quickly turned around.

"boom--"

A terrifying big explosion appeared out of thin air and blew him away.

A sinkhole with a diameter of hundreds of kilometers appeared directly behind.

The terrifying shock wave swept across the world, causing dust that covered the sky and the sun to appear within a thousand miles.

In addition, there happened to be a sandstorm now, and the dust was blown all over the world.

Yang Yuan used the force of the impact to change direction, and it took him a few seconds to rush out four to five hundred miles, to the outside, and looked at that direction in surprise.

"Everyone, run away, this has become a bombing zone..."

"The imperial bombers are here again, what a fool!"

"Get out of here quickly..."

A player shouted in the distance.

Many unlucky people were killed directly in the previous big explosion.

Those who were lucky or powerful rushed to escape far away.

"Bombing zone?"

Yang Yuan frowned: "Empire's bomber?"

He looked up at the sky, but saw nothing because the sandstorm blocked the sky.

"Huhuhu..."

The wind is getting stronger.

And more and more dust is covering the sky, making the light here darker and darker.

The whole world gradually became dark, and a terrifying hurricane swept through the boundless Gobi, making it seem like the end of the world.

"Boom boom boom..."

The big explosion in the distance is still coming.

Yang Yuan felt a little depressed and annoyed.

I finally found the direction, but now I'm lost again, because the sandstorm has blocked the sky and the sun, and even the terrain has been changed.

The route I had identified before was obviously no longer usable.

Of course, the main reason is that the visibility is too low and it is impossible to continue on the road.

"Boom boom boom..."

The bombing over there is still going on and it shouldn't end for a while.

Yang Yuan took a deep look at the dust-covered sky and quickly left here.

It was getting very late at this time, and the sky, which was already obscured by the sandstorm, quickly darkened.

"Whoosh...whistling..."

The sandstorm took full shape, and strong winds capable of blowing up tens of thousands of pounds of boulders passed by and swept everything away.

There were swirling sand and rocks everywhere, giant trees flying everywhere, and the already desolate Gobi desert was once again blown away by a layer.

Yang Yuan walked in the sandstorm for a long time, completely lost his way, and had no idea where he was going.

He simply stopped and prepared to ask someone when the wind stopped.

The ancient ruins here are definitely closer to the Sandstone Castle, and the players here may know the specific location of the Sandstone Castle.

After all, almost all of these players have lived in the Huangsha Gobi for more than half a year, unlike people like him who have just arrived.

at the same time.

In a sandstorm tens of thousands of miles away from here.

Nine-year-old Jiang Yiyi walked aimlessly in the doomsday storm.

The sandstorm sweeping across the entire continent seemed to have no effect on her. She seemed to be walking in another time and space.

She didn't know how long it took, but she came to a hill and released all her senses, sensing every plant, tree, soil and stone within a thousand miles.

After a while, she couldn't help but sigh again.

"well……"

The little girl's face was full of helplessness.

In the darkness, a seven- to eight-meter-tall sand wolf used the cover of a sandstorm to approach silently. The little girl seemed unaware.

"Ouch..."

Suddenly the sand wolf came and bit hard, but it was all empty.

Its huge body passed directly through the little human girl, and then fell from the top of the mountain because of its strong momentum.

As it fell, there was still astonishment and confusion in its eyes, as well as a touch of fear, unable to understand this situation.

But the little girl seemed to have been used to all this for a long time and didn't even look at it.

She yawned, stretched, and then walked down the hill step by step, continuing to move in the direction she had chosen before.

Suddenly, within the range of her perception, hundreds of kilometers away, a three- to four-meter drone was blown everywhere by a sandstorm, spinning with the sand and rocks.

And above the drone, there was a line of words: Yiyi, Yang Yuan, I am Jiayan, I was the one who released the drone, and I am in Shashi Castle, where the Science and Technology Association is based.

"Sister Jiayan..."

The little girl's eyes lit up and she hurriedly ran in that direction. The apocalyptic sandstorm sweeping across the world had no impact on her, either in terms of strength or vision.

Although it was far away, although the drone seemed to be broken.

But since the drone can fly to this place, it means that the place where the drone is released is not too far away.

…

Yang Yuan did not enter the safe house because he was worried that Jiang Yiyi would not be able to sense him if he passed by nearby.

The safe house has spatial isolation, and he doesn't know whether Jiang Yiyi's perception can penetrate the space. He has never asked before, and has never encountered anything like a safe house.

So, he stayed outside for half the night in the wind, letting the devastating sandstorm sweep over him, but he didn't move at all.

At around twelve o'clock in the evening, the sandstorm finally stopped.

But the weather today is very bad, the sky is covered by dark clouds, there is no starlight, and there is darkness between heaven and earth.

Yang Yuan came to the highest hill nearby.

A thick layer of rocks here has been blown away by the strong wind, leaving only hard stones.

Even the stone seemed to have been polished.

If you ignore the desolate surface, the scenery here is actually quite good during the day.

Yang Yuan stood on the hill for a while and suddenly took out the wood he had received from Wang Jiahui before.

He put the logs together one by one to form a campfire.

Due to the influence of sandstorms, the temperature in this yellow desert Gobi is as high as fifty or sixty degrees during the day, but at night the temperature is as low as ten degrees below zero.

Although he didn't need lighting himself and didn't feel cold, he wanted to use a bonfire to illuminate the surrounding environment.

Soon, the campfire was set up.

He picked up a hard enough stone, crushed it gently, continued to round and flatten it, and compressed the stone.

Under the extreme compression, the stone quickly turned red and hot, and the temperature became higher and higher.

Finally, when the stone turned completely red, he put it in the bonfire made of wood.

Under the astonishing high temperature, the bonfire was instantly ignited.

As a result, something unexpected happened to him. The moment the bonfire was lit, the upgrade data appeared:

[Bonfire lv.1: 0/5 (one-time bonfire, the wood will disappear after burning out; cannot be upgraded)]

Yang Yuan raised his eyebrows, and a flash of suspicion flashed in his heart.

According to his previous experience, only when the object is integrated into a whole can the upgrade data appear.

But now, this bonfire was built haphazardly out of many separate pieces of wood, not integrated into a whole at all. Why does data appear?

'Wait...this flame...'

Suddenly Yang Yuan saw the burning flames, and his heart moved: 'Is it the flames that connect the entire bonfire together and form a whole? ’

It seems like this should be the case.

It can only be like this.

Otherwise, if the scattered parts are put together casually, it will be impossible to form a whole. This is what he has learned from countless previous attempts.

But I didn't expect that flames could also be used as a medium to connect objects.

Yang Yuan waited patiently. He wanted to see what the bonfire would look like when it was upgraded.

About a minute later——

[Experience +1]

Bonfire experience increased a bit.

‘The way to gain experience is to burn time? ’

Yang Yuan understood clearly, and because he was worried that the bonfire would burn out before the experience was fully achieved, he tried to add more firewood.

As a result, after adding firewood, the data suddenly disappeared.

He frowned slightly and picked up the wood again. Sure enough, the upgrade data appeared again.

‘It seems like before, items that have already generated data cannot be transformed again. ’

Yang Yuan waited patiently. Fortunately, the quality of the collected wood was good enough to withstand burning.

Five minutes passed, and the experience limit was reached, while only one-third of the wood in the bonfire was burned.

Without delay, he directly chose to upgrade.

White light appeared, covering the entire bonfire.

About three seconds later, the upgrade ends, the white light disappears, and new data appears:

[Bonfire lv.2: 0/10 (a one-time bonfire, it will disappear when the wood is burned out; the wood consumption rate is slowed down by two times; it cannot be upgraded)]

‘Wood consumption slowing down? ’

Yang Yuan understood in his heart and continued to wait.

Ten minutes later, when the experience was full again, he directly upgraded it to level three.

After reaching level three, other information remains unchanged, but the wood consumption rate slows down four times.

Another twenty minutes later, the bonfire reached level four.

A level four bonfire is still a one-time bonfire, and the wood consumption rate is reduced by ten times.

This is very impressive.

So next, Yang Yuan discovered that although the bonfire was burning all the time, he could hardly feel the consumption.

Forty minutes passed in the blink of an eye, and the bonfire reached level five.

For a level five bonfire, wood consumption is slowed down by twenty times.

Then eighty minutes later, the bonfire reached level six, and the wood consumption rate was reduced by forty times.

When the bonfire reaches level seven, the wood consumption rate is directly reduced by a hundred times.

After Yang Yuan became serious, he almost lost track of time.

The sky got brighter unconsciously.

A player approached nearby and wanted to buy binding props, so he took the time to sell some gathering axes or pickaxes.

But it is a pity that there are no players above level 50 today, or there are no players above level 50 who have purchased props before, so so far, his personal experience is zero.

Until now, only sixth-level rare objects could provide him with personal experience.

Now these players' levels are too low, and the bound props are bound to them and are also restricted by their own levels. Their bound props cannot exceed their own levels.

Therefore, if they want to continue to upgrade bound props, they can only wait for their own level to increase.

Yang Yuan thought that the upgrade speed of these players was not very fast, so after finding Jiang Yiyi and Zhao Jiayan, they might be able to fly to a higher level continent first.

time flies.

It was dark again.

Finally, the night was over, and a touch of white fish belly appeared on the horizon. I finally had enough experience, and the bonfire was successfully upgraded to the rare item level:

[Wonderful object·Bonfire lv.11: 0/10 (Anchored to the ground, an immovable bonfire; a magical bonfire that can continue to burn as long as wood is added. Each piece of wood collected can increase the burning time by one minute; the bonfire's The light can dispel the darkness and bring warmth; the light of the bonfire can restore physical strength and injuries; the light of the bonfire can drive away monsters that appear at night. The current effect is ten meters; it is not afraid of wind and snow, and can be indestructible in any extreme environment. Burning, but afraid of rain; cannot be upgraded)】

‘Regain strength and recover from injuries? ’

‘Driving away monsters that appear at night? ’

Surprise flashed in Yang Yuan's eyes.

Although this bonfire looks ordinary, its effect is quite impressive.

He immediately chose to fully empower himself.

After full authorization, he discovered that the bonfire became his own exclusive item that could be recycled and reused.

At the same time, he also understood clearly that without full authorization, bonfires are public goods and cannot be recycled by anyone. That means they cannot be stored in space storage, let alone moved away.

Because without full authority, this bonfire is anchored to the ground.

Of course, if someone moves the ground away together, that's another story.

Yang Yuan didn't waste time, and immediately put the bonfire into the void ring.

After receiving the void ring, the bonfire extinguished automatically, but it was still a whole. There was an inexplicable force that stuck the half-burned wood together and would not fall apart.

‘It’s a pity that this kind of bonfire takes too long to make, otherwise we could consider selling it. ’

Yang Yuan thought that if he had time in the future, it would not be impossible to sell it.

Because this kind of thing can increase experience as long as it is burned. Although the speed of gaining experience in the early stage is relatively slow, in the later stage, it is more useful than items that require manual experience gain and can gain personal experience faster.

At this time, the sky was already dark.

Taking advantage of someone coming to buy binding props, Yang Yuan inquired about the location of Sandstone Castle.

As expected, the players here know about Sandstone Castle, and they even know that it is the headquarters of the ‘Technology Association’.

However, I heard that something happened at the Science and Technology Association in the past few days, and it may have to be relocated.

Yang Yuan could not sit still, so he immediately put away the printer and shot into the distance like a cannonball.

"Hush-"

It was like a hurricane appeared on the desolate Gobi. Wherever he passed, he brought up a lot of smoke and dust, making nearby players look at him in surprise.

Today, Yang Yuan can reach hundreds of kilometers per second when running long distances.

Even if he encountered ups and downs and some accidents, which caused him to slow down slightly, he was close to the sandstone castle in just ten minutes.

Just when he was less than a thousand kilometers away from Sandstone Castle, he went in the other direction.

Jiang Yiyi's eyes suddenly lit up, and while speeding up, she shouted: "Big brother..."

However, Yang Yuan's speed was too fast and his voice couldn't catch up with him.

Jiang Yiyi was in a hurry, her speed couldn't reach that level.

But suddenly she thought of something and hurriedly shot an arrow in that direction. Anyway, she knew that her elder brother had fire bracers on him and would never be hurt.

"Hush-"

Yang Yuan, who was running wildly, suddenly felt a sense of crisis.

Almost like a conditioned reflex, he pinched it with his backhand, and a stream of light burst out and was pinched by his two fingers.

This was a wooden crossbow. Because the quality was too poor and the kinetic energy was too great, it was annihilated the moment he held it. The terrifying kinetic energy directly blasted him hundreds of meters away, and a ripple spread out with him as the center. go.

"This is?!!"

A light flashed in Yang Yuan's eyes, he stopped suddenly and looked towards the direction from which the arrow was shot.
