A mysterious smile curled up at the corner of Lu Xiao's mouth, and he ordered Alethea to temporarily erase her eternal innocence from Focus's signal.

'Shh~'

Raising his fingers in front of his mouth to make a silent motion, Lu Xiao and Yongzhen quietly moved away from Aloy's side.

"Hey~"

Seeing Lu Xiao's movements, Aloy, who had a very flexible brain, immediately understood what he meant.

"Cyrens, are you so fond of peeping at other people's Focus?"

"Oh? Interesting. ”

Cyrens said with some surprise, "I didn't expect you to find out about my invasion. ”

"You should be near the ruins of Gaia, hurry up, Siris has begun to march towards the territory of the Calga Kingdom."

Aloy's face changed when he heard this: "So fast? ”

"What do you think?"

Cyrence sneered: "Ciris is not a man of mud and water, as long as he is prepared, he will complete the set goals with the highest efficiency." ”

"That's all for gossip, I'm waiting for you at the ruins at the top of the mountain."

"Hey...... Bastard! He hung up again! ”

Aloy was so angry in the snow that she couldn't catch Cyrens that she was annoyed.

Lu Xiao and Yongzhen walked over from a distance, and Yongzhen rubbed Aloy's hair comfortingly.

"Don't worry, this contact is too short for us to capture his specific location, and after entering the ruins of Gaia to maintain long-term contact, we will capture Cyrens in front of you."

Judging from Cyrens' tone, attitude, and experience, Lu Xiao thinks that he is the kind of arrogant person who thinks that only he is the smartest and everyone else is stupid.

In this age of ruins, the brilliant Cyrens may indeed be qualified to despise the ignorant and superstitious primitives, but his attitude will undoubtedly make people feel very uncomfortable.

Lu Xiao plans to teach others that there is a truth outside the sky, and he will engrave this truth into the depths of his mind that he thinks he is unparalleled.

……

Trying to avoid the mechanical beasts along the way, Lu Xiao and the three of them finally arrived in front of the Gaia ruins before dark.

A huge hole was blasted open in the center of the mountain, revealing the ancient facilities buried underground.

A large part of the underground ruins have been completely submerged by the wind and snow, and almost no life can survive in the extremely cold climate of more than -30 degrees Celsius.

"Hiss~"

Although Aloy wears a thicker garment, it is impossible for her to wrap herself in a polar bear in order to be flexible in the wild.

The cold climate made Aloy rub her hands and stomp her feet, and Lu Xiao and Yongzhen, who were not afraid of the cold and heat, still looked the same, which made Aloy somewhat envious.

Looking at the climbing path ahead that had already been prepared by someone, Lu Xiao had a meaningful smile on his face.

Yongzhen patted Aloy on the back and encouraged, "Go ahead, we will support you in the rear, remember to be vigilant at all times." ”

"Hmm!"

The rapidly dropping core temperature of her body made Aloy anxious to move, and after Yongzhen and Lu Xiao retreated into the shadows, she immediately swung her sturdy legs and began to run.

Seeing Aloy flexibly climb on the fortifications prepared by Cyrens, Lu Xiao instructed Althea and Consus to cooperate.

As soon as Cyrence hacks Aloy's Focus again, they will immediately begin to capture Cyrens' whereabouts in reverse.

"Today I'm going to let you know what it means to crawl along the network cable and beat people."

Unsurprisingly, when Aloy entered the upper level of Gaia's ruins, Cyrens contacted her again.

"This is one of the studios I built, and I've lived here for months to study the ruins."

Aloy's eyes were filled with a small room that was well sealed all around, and the door to the entrance was closed, and Aloy finally escaped the extreme cold wind and snow.

In front of another gate leading deeper into the ruins, a holographic projection of a middle-aged black man appeared.

Aloy clenched her fists, barely resisting the urge to smash her fist on the bridge of her opponent's nose.

"So, you're Cyrence?"

"That's right."

The black man's arms and chin were embellished with fluorescent pipes, and his shoulder-length sleeveless raw-trimmed top looked mysterious.

Lu Xiao, who was shocked by Aloy's Focus, thought that he had seen a shaman from a certain tribe.

The conversation between Aloy and Cyrens can be described as a bull's head and a horse's mouth.

Aloy has been testing Serens' identity, but the other party has been talking about his Tai Chi.

Aloy, who was still inexperienced, was no match for the old fox Cyrens in verbal confrontations, and was finally persuaded by him to explore the ruins first.

"Oh, yes."

Cyrus' projection pointed to the workbench, on which sat a sharp metal spear with an overclocking part strapped to its tail.

"This is the spear I used before, it has some special functions, I don't need it anymore, give it to you."

Aloy picked up the spear in confusion, and the moment he got his hands on it, the spear was connected to Focus, and the surface of the spear shimmered with a faint blue light.

Aloy asked, puzzled, "What is this?" ”

Cyrens shrugged his shoulders and said, "You can study it yourself, maybe I haven't been able to fully discover the power of this spear." ”

"Don't waste time, hurry up and go deep into the ruins, after reading the information you transmitted, I can't wait to know all the truths of the past."

Under Lu Xiao's instructions, Aloy had transmitted the information obtained from Cradle 9, Vault 53, and the ruins of Sunset Fort to Cyrens a few days earlier.

In the past few days, Cyrence has been reading information almost all night, and he finally figured out why Hades had the idea of destroying the world, which was his innate mission.

But like Lu Xiao, Cyrence didn't know the real reason for Hades' mutation.

Aloy angrily took the spear behind him: "Since you are in such a hurry, why don't you go in and explore by yourself?" ”

"Hey~"

Cyrence patted his forehead speechlessly: "Aloy, don't say such stupid things, okay?" ”

"If I can enter the ruins, why wait for you to come?"

Raising his hand and pointing to the gate behind him, Cyrens said helplessly: "I tried all known methods to destroy this gate, but in the end, in vain, even the heavy machine gun of the Deathbringer could not hurt a single bit. ”

Lu Xiao, who was watching from behind the scenes, pouted: "Isn't this nonsense, this is the last fortress of human beings in the old era, and the best materials must have been used in the construction process, and the most rigorous protection was designed." ”

Cyrens continued, "Only you with the DNA of Dr. Elizabeth Sobek will be able to open the doors to all the ruins, which is the special permission that Gaia gave you before he self-destructed. ”

"Tsk~"

Aloy unhappily passed through Cyrens's projection, and the authentication system similar to the ruins of Sunset Keep passed Aloy's permission test without surprise.

The door that had plagued Cyrence for months opened. At the anxious urging of Cyrens, Aloy began an expedition to the ruins of Gaia.

In a cave outside the ruins, Alethea and Consus, who had been busy, spoke at the same time.

"We found it."

Aletya's tone was a little weird: "Should I say that he is a master of art and bold?" Or is it taking advantage of the human habit of being dark under the lamp? ”

"Cyrens was hiding in the hidden room next door to the studio, and at the nearest point, he and Aloy were less than five meters away in a straight line."

"Heh~ It's really an old fox."

Lu Xiao stood up from the boulder and moved his body: "Let's go, catch this strange uncle who likes to peep into the girl's privacy." ”
