Transcendent Ember

Chapter 336 Trojan Horse

Are you a time traveler?

A frivolous question made Zhang Jichuan stiffen uncontrollably for a moment, and for a moment, there were countless problems in his heart: "This lady is too direct, how can she ask the core secret as soon as she comes up."

Xu Lingshan seemed to understand his expression, and explained: "I am introverted and not good at communicating with people, so I speak a bit straightforwardly. If you don't want to answer, you don't have to answer."

If I tell you directly that I don't want to answer, wouldn't that be equivalent to acquiescing? Another point flashed, and Zhang Jichuan shook his head: "It's okay, there's nothing you can't say, I am."

"Oh."

Oh? ? ?
finished?What's next?Don't you keep asking?Zhang Jichuan was a little dumbfounded for a moment. He originally thought that after the first question, there would be a series of questions, but they disappeared.
Xu Lingshan didn't respond as if she didn't ask him any questions.

This made Zhang Jichuan a little bit confused, and his heart was full of complaints: "I am a dignified traveler, so I don't have a face? Is it not worth your condescension to ask me a few questions? You don't want to know the last season The truth about civilization?"

I must be the worst time traveler, not only the secret of time travel is known to the whole world, but the key point is that everyone is not interested in me.Ah, no, at this moment when someone is still interested, Zhang Jichuan misses Mudi from Xinhua University very much.

If I can still time travel in this life, I will definitely sum up my experience carefully and never show my feet again. But having said that, after traveling to a completely strange world, it would be hell if I can keep the secret. Zhang Jichuan thought like a horse racing in his heart.

At this time, Xu Lingshan had already pushed open the heavy metal gate of the White Tower and led him into it.What surprised Zhang Jichuan was that the third time he walked through this door, he saw a completely different scene.

Gone is the familiar rotunda, as if it never existed, replaced by a quiet room filled with ancient books.
What the hell, is this Schrödinger's White Tower?Zhang Jichuan thought subconsciously.

"Come here?" An old, dead, decayed voice sounded. Zhang Jichuan didn't understand how so much information could be contained in three simple words, but when he heard this voice, At that time, he could feel the years passing by before his eyes.
He saw an old man, an old man with almost lost hair and teeth, sitting at the table, flipping through a book awkwardly and slowly with the faint light of an oil lamp.

Doesn’t the White Pagoda have electric lights? Zhang Jichuan once again complained in his heart.

"Here we come." Xu Lingshan replied, "I brought it for you, so I'll go first."

After all, she was about to turn around and leave.

But the old man took the book and said: "It's okay girl, you don't have to go, it's not too important, just listen to it."

"Oh." Hearing this, Xu Lingshan sat down on a bench next to her, quietly like a girl next door, not at all the prestige that a person who is talking about the ancestor peak should have.

Hey, to be able to talk to the person in charge of the ancestor peak like this, the old man's seniority is astonishing! Zhang Jichuan's eyelids trembled, seeing the old man's gaze moving towards him, he quickly bowed and said, "Zhang Jichuan has met senior."

"Don't be restrained." The old man shook his hand holding the scroll slightly, and said with a smile, "Zhang Jichuan? Good name."

"On behalf of my parents, I thank senior for the compliment." Zhang Jichuan said.

"Hehe." The old man smiled, and asked a question casually, "Zhang Jichuan, have you met Lear?"

Lear?

Zhang Jichuan was taken aback for a moment, and the scene of meeting Lear in the same boat space automatically turned up in his mind.It was on the former island of disorder, Zhang Jichuan, who was in the upper reaches of the long river of time, saw Lear who came with a sword in the same boat space under the control of the spiritual practice society.
Lear once gave me a look that made me feel that I was exposed to him without any secret at all.Moreover, Lear was also the spokesperson of the Ancestor Peak. Zhang Jichuan stringed together many clues in an instant, and guessed the purpose of the old man in front of him when he met him.

So he nodded: "I have seen it."

Surprise flashed in Xu Lingshan's eyes, but the old man nodded as expected, and said with emotion: "The extraordinary world is really wonderful. A person who has been away from civilized countries for hundreds of years has met people from this era. Now, where is the reasoning here?"

Hundreds of years away from civilization?Did he mean Lear?Did Lear also go to the depths of the earth? There are many question marks in Zhang Jichuan's mind.

What is there in the depths of the earth?Why do gods and demons in the ignorant age, and legendary archaeologists like Lear go deep into the earth?Even the 'boundary' where the Fire Demon King went is suspected to be deep in the earth
Tama, who was resurrected in the Ice Crystal Mountain, should also be in the depths of the earth.
Zhang Jichuan couldn't understand it.

The old man continued: "It's rare to see a person like Lear. Since you have met him, you can't just see that he has something for you to do."

There is something I want to do. Zhang Jichuan had some guesses and asked, "Could it be something about the Spiritual Society?"

"Yes." The old man nodded, showing a satisfied smile, affirming his guess.

Xu Lingshan's eyes moved again, and she suddenly said: "Last year, the Spiritual Practice Society was established in the form of a company and an organization in Xishan Province of Gu Yue Country, and recruited people aggressively. At that time, you didn't let us take any action because Li I have already made arrangements."

The old man nodded again: "Yes, Lear has made arrangements, why do you care about them?"

Xu Lingshan frowned slightly, but immediately relaxed, and nodded, agreeing to this statement.

No wonder the Spiritual Retreat was recruiting people openly in Xishan Province, but Ancestor Feng did not respond. Zhang Jichuan also understood the reason, and his feelings still had something to do with him, but
"Senior." Zhang Jichuan asked, "What does Lear want me to do? I'm just an ordinary second-rank extraordinary, but the Spiritual Society has a powerful organization with sixth-rank extraordinary."

The old man snorted, and said with a sneer: "What's the use of being strong? Back then, Lear had already touched the threshold of the eighth-rank extraordinary, and the ninth-rank extraordinary is not hopeless, is it strong enough?

"The result? He claimed to have sounded the death knell for the ancient spiritual society, but the centipede was dead but not stiff. Didn't the ashes of the spiritual society revive soon?

"He still wanted to continue hunting, but at that time, he had to leave.
"So, this kind of thing can't be tough, you have to rely on your brain."

Zhang Jichuan's face turned blue, he probably guessed what Lear wanted him to do.

The leader of the spiritual retreat at that time mistook him for Odysseus, and Lear probably wanted to take advantage of this and let him go to the spiritual retreat as an undercover agent!
Then disintegrate the enemy from within.

Otherwise, what can a second-grade superhuman do?

Zhang Jichuan blinked, and asked expectantly: "Senior, can I refuse?"

"Yes." The old man smiled again, very happily, and pointed to Xu Lingshan, "I will tell these children tomorrow that you refuse Lear's request."

Let me go, this bad old man is too bad. Zhang Jichuan's face turned from green to green, and Li Er was once the speaker of the Ancestor Peak. In this way, he can be regarded as the ancestor of Xu Lingshan, Luo Huan, Weimo and others. .

If these people know that Zhang Jichuan rejects their master's arrangement.
In the entire system of the Association of Archaeologists, Zhang Jichuan is at the end of his game. When the time comes, expulsion from the Association and the abolition of the three major secret methods will be trivial matters, and it will be sad to wear small shoes everywhere.
"Senior, don't talk about it, I'll take it." Zhang Jichuan immediately patted his chest and promised, "Last time I saw the Spiritual Society buying and selling people for experiments, this kind of organization that cannot be tolerated by nature, it's Zhang Jichuan's job to get him .”

Xu Lingshan looked at him slightly in astonishment.

The old man smiled like a fox: "Well, he is indeed a good young man with a sense of justice."

After a pause, the old man continued: "But you don't have to panic, Lear won't let you die in vain, he left you something."

After finishing speaking, the old man stretched out his hand to grab it in the void, and a wooden horse appeared out of thin air.
Trojan horse, it shouldn’t be. Zhang Jichuan’s heart was pounding, he took the wooden horse sent by the old man, swept it with the power of his soul, and got its message:
"Trojan horse, first-rank extraordinary item of literature and art (up to fifth-rank), unbound!

"That year, the Greek coalition forces had been besieging Troy for ten years, and Odysseus came up with the Trojan horse trick, which brought an end to this protracted war.
"Extraordinary ability 1: Trojan horse trick - after activation, the host can sneak into any location without making a sound.

"Extraordinary Ability 2: Scourge - When this extraordinary item is shattered, the attacker will suffer the scourge.

"Extraordinary Ability 3: Extended Meaning - After activation, this extraordinary item can be turned into a virus, invading the enemy's extraordinary item.

"Negative ability 1: unable to enter the city - after binding, the host cannot pass through any physical door.

"Negative Ability 2: Sacrifice - After binding, the host will become a sacrifice from time to time, attracting some kind of terrible existence to devour the host, please be careful.

"Is it bound?"

It was really a 'Trojan horse'. Zhang Jichuan looked at the old man with bright eyes: "Is this for me?"

The old man nodded and affirmed: "This is the supernatural item that Lear killed a member of the spiritual group and exploded. You should know the code name of the member of the spiritual group, right?"

"Odysseus!" Zhang Jichuan said immediately.

He finally understood why there was an Odysseus in the Spiritual Society. He must have joined the Spiritual Society after getting the 'Trojan Horse', and the Spiritual Society also had the habit of using code names.

So the man called himself Odysseus.

Thinking about it, the member of the Spiritual Society codenamed Odysseus should have had conflicts with the leader of the Spiritual Society and did not respond to the call of the Spiritual Society leader for a long time. During that time, he was killed by Lear.
Later, when Lear sounded the death knell for the ancient spiritual society, the leader of the spiritual society called Odysseus again, and at that time, Zhang Jichuan returned from the island of disorder to the upper reaches of the long river of time. That meeting between him and Lear.
