Real Game: I Exposed the Old Ones

What's the reward?

“Money you’ll never spend in a lifetime.”

Zhou Cang spoke with almost no time to think.

A slightly sarcastic smile appeared at the corner of Zhu Zheng's mouth: Do you think I am short of money?

Zhou Cang was speechless.

He witnessed Zhu Zheng forcefully kill the ancient one.

With the strength of the other party, I am afraid that he has already transcended the pursuit of money.

However, Zhou Cang also had doubts in his heart.

If you were not short of money, why did you accept my commission and come to the Antarctic?

Could it be

Zhou Cang seemed to have figured out something, with a wry smile on his face: I understand.

A stack of paper materials was delivered to Zhu Zheng.

[Investigation report on the disappearance of Conrad’s polar scientific expedition team. 】

Zhou Cang believed that Zhu Zheng also came for this information.

Know that the situation is stronger than the person.

He chose to cooperate very much.

Zhu Zheng likes this kind of guy who is good at self-help.

He looked through it unceremoniously.

The Conrad Polar Science Expedition Team went to Antarctica to conduct scientific research operations. Its main purpose is to develop and utilize new energy.

This is related to the next strategic deployment of the Conrad Consortium.

Unexpectedly, this unfortunate scientific expedition team encountered a once-in-a-century blizzard. They lost their way and accidentally ran into a snow ditch to take shelter.

Through encrypted wireless messages, they passed what they saw near the snow ditch to a nearby scientific research station, and then passed it back to the Conrad Consortium.

In the wireless message, the scientific expedition team members briefly described the situation in the snow ditch and decided to investigate in depth.

Then, not surprisingly, the scientific expedition team mysteriously disappeared.

When the Conrad Consortium translated the encrypted message, everyone was surprised.

You would never imagine that the polar scientific expedition team found the remains of a prehistoric civilization. What's even more wonderful is that it is still some distance away from the dangerous polar circle, just outside the Crazy Mountains.

In order to obtain priority for investigation, I used many means to defeat other competitors and organize this scientific expedition.

Zhu Zheng slightly said jokingly: What are the ruins? Could it be that there are gold mines hidden there?

Gold mine? No, we are interested in the technological creations in the ruins.

According to the data recorded back in time, the technological level in the city's ruins is at least hundreds of years ahead of us. If the Conrad Consortium gets those things, it can achieve a qualitative leap!

And I can also become the leader of the consortium, but I didn't expect it.

Zhu Zheng knew what Zhou Cang wanted to say.

But he didn't expect that the journey to Antarctica would be dangerous.

Shoggoth.

The ancient ones.

Attacks continued along the way, causing the team to continue to dwindle.

And the bodyguard he had high hopes for was completely unavailable.

Zhu Zheng could understand Zhou Cang's mood.

At this time, a line of text appeared in front of his eyes.

[World view cracking degree: 19%. 】

The value increased by a full 3%.

Zhu Zheng had a smile on his face.

I can accompany you to the Snow Ditch and ensure your safety, but I have a few conditions.

Zhou Cang was shocked: Say it.

The team was streamlined again.

At Zhu Zheng's request, Zhou Cang informed him of the trip's final destination.

When they heard that they were about to enter the edge of the Crazy Mountains, everyone had ugly faces.

Several people on the spot expressed their intention to withdraw from the operation.

They are just members of the public who join the scientific expedition team based on their hobbies or work, and they are not here to work hard.

In the end, only four black sunglasses, one mercenary, Yan Gang and Zhou Cang were left.

After the break.

They continued on to their destination in three snowmobiles.

On the way, Zhu was sitting in the back of the snowmobile, playing with the azure crystal found in the ancient man's corpse.

[Crystal of the Ancients: A crystal storage device made by the Ancients. It contains energy bearing the brand of the Ancients and can be used as a container to store energy. 】

It's no use thinking about it.

Seeing Peanut's salivating expression, he simply threw the Ancient One's crystal to Peanut as rations.

Peanut hugged the ancient crystal thrown over.

The body struggles to open enough gaps...

Trying to get the crystal into your body.

finally.

After spending a lot of effort, Peanut finally digested the Ancient One Crystal.

The effect is very obvious.

He has grown a lot taller, and all his abilities have been significantly enhanced.

When Peanut turned into [Devil's Hand] again, the extended range of the gloves spread to the forearm.

Zhu Zheng also discovered an interesting phenomenon.

Peanut has the ability to disguise himself as an ancient being.

If you just look at the [Devil's Hand], you will definitely mistake it for the arm of an ancient being.

Interesting change.

Zhu Zheng muttered to himself.

Maybe it’s the end of all hardships.

The rest of the trip was smooth sailing.

The snowmobile rode through the blizzard, heading towards the face-faced snow-capped mountains called the Crazy Mountains.

“What’s behind the Mountains of Crazy?”

Zhu Zheng wanted to hear Zhou Cang's answer.

He is from the Conrad Consortium and should know a lot of information that ordinary people don't know.

It was a battlefield.

You should know about the secret agency. In fact, there are secret agencies stationed in the polar circle inside the Crazy Mountains.

Legend has it that there is a torn space rift in the core of Antarctica, which is connected to a terrifying world. From time to time, monsters come to our world from the space rift.

The duty of the secret agency is to station in the core of Antarctica, kill all monsters, and defend our world.

Zhou Cang's answer surprised Zhu Zheng.

He didn't expect that the secret agency would have a station here.

And the work content is so bad.

Zhou Cang said with certainty: The reason why the Crazy Mountains are dangerous is that there may occasionally be escaped monsters hiding in the mountains, but Secret Opportunity will also regularly organize investigators to sweep the Crazy Mountains, so there is generally no danger.

Zhu Zheng said hehe.

He glanced at Zhou Cang.

The eyes seem to say

Little brother, you have encountered many dangers along the way.

Of course, he has no awareness that he is the culprit...

Zhou Cang felt depressed.

He simply kept silent and concentrated on driving according to the coordinates left by the missing expedition team.

Here we are.

About two hours later, Zhou Cang parked his car in front of a narrow snow ditch.

Several people got off the snowmobile and looked into the snow ditch.

The inside of the snow gully is condensed into a thick and hard layer of ice.

Like a skeleton, it supports the existence of the snow ditch.

Looking inside, you can't see the end of the depth, but you can feel that the interior space is huge, and there is a faint breeze flowing.

It seems that the inside of the snow ditch is not a dead end, but is connected to a spacious space somewhere.

Everyone took off the lighting equipment and materials prepared in advance from the snowmobiles, connected them with traction ropes, and walked down the snow ditch in a line.

Zhu Zheng took the lead.

Under the light of the searchlight, the snow ditch slowly opened up to him, an area full of secrets.

Zhu Zheng was filled with emotion.

No wonder the missing expedition team said this is a city ruins. It's so neat here.
