Lin Fan and the others, with firm beliefs, were like a group of fearless warriors, continuing to embark on the long journey full of unknowns and challenges. Along the way, A Xing's playful nature was like an unquenchable flame, burning brightly. He would imitate the fierce monsters they had encountered before, baring his teeth and brandishing his arms, making all kinds of fierce and menacing movements. The appearance was so vivid that it seemed as if a real monster was rampaging in front of them. Then he would mimic some strange characters, twisting his waist, pinching his throat, and speaking in a strange and affected tone, making everyone burst into laughter. The laughter echoed on the empty road, one after another, like a lively and cheerful melody. It also gradually eased the originally tense atmosphere, like the haze being dispersed by the sun, adding a unique touch of brightness to this arduous journey.
As they walked, they discovered an ancient and mysterious ruin ahead. The ruin was like a giant who had been sleeping for thousands of years, standing there quietly, emitting a mysterious and awe-inspiring aura. The gate of the ruin was tightly closed, and it was engraved with all kinds of strange symbols and patterns. Those symbols were like codes from ancient times, mysterious and unfathomable. Each line and every shape seemed to tell a story that had been buried by the years, attracting everyone's attention and arousing their endless curiosity.
"Wow, this ruin looks so mysterious. Could there be any treasures or powerful forces hidden inside?" A Xing curiously approached, his eyes shining with excitement, like the twinkling stars in the night sky, bright and intense. His body leaned slightly forward, his neck stretched out long, eager to find out. His impatient appearance was like a child about to open a mysterious gift.
Da Gu carefully observed the symbols on the gate, his brows slightly furrowed, and his eyes revealed concentration and thought. He said, "These symbols look very old and seem to hide some secrets. We have to be careful. There might be danger inside. This could be an unprecedented challenge, and we can't afford to be careless." His voice was deep and steady, with a hint of caution, as if he had already sensed the potential crisis lurking in the ruin. His serious expression seemed to tell everyone that this was not a place for casual play.
Lin Fan also nodded, his expression serious and determined. He said, "Yes, everyone, be on high alert. We don't know what's waiting for us inside, but as long as we are united, nothing can defeat us." His eyes were full of confidence and determination, like a bright light, illuminating the way forward for everyone, making them feel more confident when facing the unknown.
They carefully pushed open the gate of the ruin. The gate opened slowly, making a dull and long creaking sound, like the low moan of the ancient ruin. A stale smell rushed towards them, a mixture of the dust of the years, the smell of rotten wood and ancient stones, making people recall those distant historical times, as if they had instantly traveled back to that ancient and mysterious era. It was dark and damp inside, filled with a faint mist. The mist was like a light veil, making it impossible to see the distant scenery clearly, as if they were in an illusory dream. The walls were flickering with a weak light, which was sometimes bright and sometimes dim, like the twinkling fireflies in the night sky, or as if the ruin itself was silently guiding them forward, adding a strange and charming atmosphere to this mysterious space.
The group slowly walked along the passage, being extremely cautious with each step, for fear of triggering some mechanism or disturbing the unknown existence hidden in the dark. Suddenly, a low growl came from the depths. The sound echoed in the silent ruin, like heavy hammers, hitting everyone's hearts hard, making people's hair stand on end and a chill run down their spines.
"Not good, there's something inside!" Lina nervously tightened her grip on the weapon in her hand. Her hand was slightly trembling, and her eyes revealed a hint of fear, but more of it was firmness and bravery. She closely followed Lin Fan, like a loyal guardian, ready to step forward to protect everyone at any time.
They quickened their pace and walked towards the source of the sound. The sound of their footsteps echoed in the passage, intertwined with the growl, forming a tense and exciting symphony. In a spacious hall, they saw a huge mechanical monster. The monster was made entirely of metal, and the metal was shining with a cold luster in the weak light, like a fortress made of steel, impregnable. Its eyes were flashing with a red light, like two burning flames, revealing its fierceness and brutality, as if it wanted to devour everything that dared to approach. The parts on its body were constantly operating, making a clicking sound, like the mechanical heartbeat,
