Doomsday Code

Chapter 394 Desire for Power

"Things are almost done here. Let's rest here tonight and set off early tomorrow morning."

Chen Cheng sighed heavily and said:

"I just hope nothing unexpected happens before we enter the ruins."

Huidun patted Chen Cheng on the shoulder and said:

"Actually, this isn't necessarily a bad thing. At least it lets these young men and women know what danger is. Besides, the development value of this ruins is much higher than what we discovered beforehand."

Chen Cheng knew that Huidun was attracted by the special characteristics of these orc rats. They were able to gain power comparable to that of the strong warriors without the help of fighting spirit and magic power.

And precisely because of such considerations, Chen Cheng did not ruthlessly formulate any extermination plan.

At night, there are glowing crystals on the walls of this cave world, each one as bright as the little stars in the sky outside.

And the round ball that was originally the sun has now turned into a crescent moon.

After the last sneak attack by the moles, the camp’s defense measures have been improved by several levels.

The younger generation from these big families may not have that many trump cards to save their lives from enemies, but they have endless means of sensing danger around them.

According to Monet, in these ancient ruins, no matter how strong you are, you are still a rookie, and what they need is to be able to survive and reach the real opportunity place to obtain the ancient opportunities inside.

So a lot of trump cards such as those for sensing danger are prepared.

I had just arrived in this cave world and my mentality had not yet changed. I thought that the real danger only existed in the ruins.

"Go to bed early. We have to hurry up and travel tomorrow."

Huidun reminded Chen Cheng.

They had wasted a lot of time these days, so there wasn't much time left for them to travel.

The opening of this relic is time-limited. People will only be allowed in from the outskirts of the relic when there is an abnormality in the tokens they obtain.

The longest period of time between them will not exceed two months.

Once we fail to crack the ruins or get out of them, once the time comes, there will be no news of the people inside anymore.

The sun rose as usual, but today there were thick clouds in the sky over the cave.

Looking at this magical underground wonder, everyone couldn't help but marvel.

At this time, the Rat King found the leader of the Rat Tribe, Mo Donik, and said:

"Looking at the weather, the rainy season is about to arrive. You are not familiar with the terrain here. I can be your guide."

Mo Duonik raised his eyebrows and said:

"What do you want, then?"

He didn't laugh it off with the Rat King, as he didn't want to get into trouble before he figured out the matter.

The Rat King also said very straightforwardly:

"I know you are going to the ruins of the ancient gods. I just hope that you can take me and my men with you when you go in. Of course, you can leave the guards along the way to us, and we will obey your orders after entering the ruins."

The conversation between the Rat King and Modognick was not hidden from anyone, and when others heard it, they all said that the Rat King was daydreaming.

Not to mention that the opportunities are limited, the family has put in a lot of effort for them to be able to participate, just take the matter of the identity token as an example.

Without this token, he couldn't enter the ruins.

Mo Donik asked everyone to shut up, and then he did not hide it from the Rat King and told him what he knew about the requirements for entry.

"If you still agree, then please lead the way for us."

Mo Duonik This is also carefully considered.

The ruins they are in now are very different from the ruins they knew before. This is a huge cave world, unlike other ruins which are just a small cave with a radius of only a few dozen miles.

Therefore, the complexity of the situation here is far greater than that of other ruins he is familiar with.

We had already been delayed for a few days before. If we could get help from the natives of this cave world along the way, it would obviously be possible to avoid a lot of trouble.

As for what other plans the Rat King and the others have, that’s not important.

Their purpose is to enter the ruins and explore.

The Rat King also considered it for a while, and then nodded solemnly:

"I promise."

Ever since he was captured and saw his people being defeated so easily, he developed an unprecedented craze for power.

He wanted to gain powerful strength to protect his people so that they would never be in danger like now again.

It can be said that the Rat Tribe was able to be safe this time, thanks to Huidun and his men who had no intention of ruling over the Rat Tribe, otherwise the Rat Tribe might have become slaves of others.

Seeing that the Rat King nodded in agreement, Moduonik asked him to send someone back to tell his tribesmen.

Then let him lead the way with his men.

The group descended from the high ground, and then followed the Rat King along the flowing stream into the distance.

The gopher who stayed behind to report watched them go away, then turned and headed towards the canyon.

When he returned to the canyon, there were even more gophers gathered there, but looking at their large and small bags, it seemed that they were about to migrate.

When the gopher elder in front saw the gopher coming back, he quickly grabbed him and asked about the situation.

When they learned that Chen Cheng and his companions had left, and that the Rat King had also left with him to the ancient ruins in order to gain power, these Rat elders all covered their faces and cried.

In their view, their king became a prisoner of Chen Cheng and his men just to ensure their safety.

Then the crying sound spread to the entire mole tribe like a plague, and in an instant the whole canyon was filled with crying sounds.

"Elder, are we still migrating?"

At this time, a mole captain asked.

Elder Gopher shook his head and said:

"No, we won't leave. We'll just wait here for the king to come back."

When the mole captain heard this, his expression immediately became excited and he said:

"Yes, we will not leave. We will wait here for the king to return. I believe that the king will achieve his goal and return with absolute power."

After the mole finished saying this, he also mentioned what Chen Cheng had said yesterday about the cotton seeds and other things.

Then these gophers returned to their own caves and continued to reproduce here.

The originally gloomy sky seemed to have heard the roar of these gophers. Thunder rumbled, and then heavy rain poured down.

The original drainage system of the mole tribe was damaged a lot because of Huidun's shot, but fortunately it was only a small part. These moles worked hard to repair the drainage system before the flood came.

As for Chen Cheng and his team, several days of heavy rain slowed down their progress, but fortunately they had a local, the Rat King, to lead the way, so they didn't have to take any more detours.
