Start-up rebate: become stronger by brushing missions

Chapter 142 The Shadow
"It's very old, very old, and it's just a matter of time before it dies."

Zhang Rui sighed deeply, the soul of the black dragon was still in his body, one with him.

Its last wish has been half completed by itself, and the remaining half will be completed soon.

"So you should understand that my enemy is not something you can resist. I can only fight against it with the help of the Extraordinary Administration, the country, and the power of the world, and I may not necessarily win."

The Lancet civilization of the fourth-level civilization has the power to destroy a planet at any time. The vanguard troops that came this time were not strong, but Zhang Rui suffered a lot.

What level of master will the enemy come again later?

Zhang Rui didn't dare to think about it, and he didn't want to think about it again. I'm afraid that by then, no one on earth will be able to compete a little bit, right?

"Stop talking, I understand your concerns."

Bai Ze gently held Zhang Rui's hand, and his black eyes were shining with infinite brilliance at this moment, which made Zhang Rui feel at ease.

He nodded imperceptibly, and let Bai Ze hold his hand, never letting go.

Not long after, the food and drinks were brought up, Zhang Rui got drunk, and finally returned to his home with Gu Honglei's support.

There is only so much he can do, eat with everyone and laugh.

"Sometimes it's really hard for me to imagine how you train and how your strength improves so quickly."

Gu Honglei sat beside Zhang Rui's bed, watching Zhang Rui's consciousness recovering gradually, and said.

Zhang Rui supported the edge of the bed and sat up. His head was still a little dizzy, but it didn't hinder his thinking and talking.

"When you have such a big hidden danger, I think you will work harder than ever."

Gu Honglei nodded. If the enemy behind him was so powerful, he would probably save his sleep time for exercise, right?
"Then when are we going to Atlantis?"

he asked seriously.

"Tomorrow, but before that, I have one more thing to do."

"what's up?"

"I'm going to school."

Zhang Rui didn't say clearly that he was going to transfer some abilities to Chen Xing so that he could live better in this world.

As for whether he can live in the same world in the future, he doesn't make too many demands, he just hopes that he can live a good life, and that's fine.

Early the next morning, Zhang Rui ran downstairs to Chen Xing's house and knocked on the door.

"Who?"

Chen Xing rubbed his sleepy eyes and opened the door.

"Zhang Rui? Why is it so early? Isn't today the weekend?"

He thought Zhang Rui had come to ask him to go to school with him.

"I have something to tell you."

Zhang Rui raised his hand and stroked his head lightly. Before the latter could feel anything, Zhang Rui withdrew his hand.

"Okay, I should go."

After doing all this, Zhang Rui left without looking back, making Chen Xing look puzzled.

"Um, goodbye."

Since there was nothing to do, Chen Xing didn't want to think about it, so he went back to bed and continued to sleep.

Gu Honglei stood in the distance and silently watched Zhang Rui's movements. He could feel the changes in Chen Xing.

"Aren't you afraid that this will hurt him?"

"It's just a little bit of ability, and it won't have any impact on his life."

"I really didn't see that you still have such a side."

"Hehe, someone once said that I am a good person!"

"LOL, really?"

……

It was the same pier as last time, Zhang Rui kept everything simple this time, and drove him and Gu Honglei in a small speedboat to the depths of the Pacific Ocean.

There are two sets of diving suits and oxygen cylinders on board, enough to support them for three 10-minute activities.

Zhang Rui didn't need these, so these equipments were enough for Gu Honglei to use for an entire hour.

Half a day later, when the sky was about to darken, they finally arrived at the sea area where they were last time.

The lonely airship looked very small in the boundless sea. Zhang Rui and Gu Honglei put on diving suits, helmets and oxygen cylinders, and plunged into the sea.

At a depth of tens of thousands of meters in the deep sea, not everyone can withstand the huge water pressure. Zhang Rui seemed very comfortable with the previous experience.

After Gu Honglei got used to it for a while, he didn't think it was such a big problem.

They followed the memory parade all the way, and after spending more than two hours, they found the lost continent again.

"Is this Atlantis?"

Gu Honglei saw a vague outline with the detector in his hand, which was a huge underwater city.

"That's right, Atlantis is lost here."

Zhang Rui said that he could see everything on the bottom of the sea clearly, but he didn't know how much Gu Honglei could see clearly.

"It's really magnificent! It's unbelievable that the lost civilization thousands of years ago has developed to such an extent!"

Gu Honglei sincerely sighed, who would have thought that Atlantis would look like this?
"To put it bluntly, the technological level of Atlantis exceeds that of the current Earth for thousands of years."

Zhang Rui swam forward slowly, and he was less than a hundred meters away from the city.

"Thousands of years? Probably more than that!"

"I'm just a conservative estimate. Strictly speaking, it exceeds the development of earth civilization by at least millions of years or even more."

Atlantis is the ruins of the Morse Civilization, a third-level civilization. Even if there is only a little bit of its technological level left, it is not the current earth technology that can see the whole picture.

The reason why it is said that it exceeds the millennium on the earth is because it is only a trace of the Moss civilization, which is not enough to represent its integrity.

"What level of civilization is it?"

After so much, Gu Honglei also roughly knew that there are seven levels of civilization in the universe, and the earth barely reached the boundary of level one civilization.

"The ruins of a third-level civilization."

Zhang Rui didn't have reservations about this, but Zhang Rui selectively concealed some things that were inconvenient for him to tell him.

"That's great too."

Just when the two were about to enter the city, Zhang Rui felt a black shadow suddenly disappear behind him.

"Who?"

He shouted, there was nothing when he came last time, how could there be a change this time?
"Where is anyone?"

However, Gu Honglei didn't notice anything. In his perception, there was nothing left except for the endless darkness.

"Just now, I saw a black shadow flash past."

Zhang Rui also wondered if he had seen it wrong, but under his sight, everything around him was no different from the daytime, and the shadows were still very obvious.

"Where is there any dark shadow, could it be that you are dazzled by seeing it."

Gu Honglei shook his head and stepped into the city. At this moment, a dark figure came to him.

Under the attack of this black shadow, he was knocked away several meters, felt a sharp pain in his chest, and his ribs were almost broken.

"There are real people!"

Now he has to believe it or not.

After doing all this, the black shadow that attacked him disappeared again, as if what happened just now was just an illusion.
