To be precise, the "Handbook of the Ruined City" is not just a simple map, Chen Shi turned the second page, it was a dense text, these words are relatively sloppy, and they are not Chinese characters, Chen Shi looks even more laborious, and it took effort to read the first page and a half that he didn't understand.

"Explorer?"

After reading the first page, Chen Shi roughly understood the identity of the owner of the book.

This book is actually a synthesis of diaries and notes, and the owner of this diary on the first page has made a lot of complaints and complaints, 70% of the content is nonsense, and the remaining 30% is useful information.

He didn't say his name in his diary, and it's right to think about it, and the general diary will not specifically mark the owner's name to remind him repeatedly, this nameless diary owner is an explorer, the so-called explorer, that is, to go deep into the "ruined capital", this civilization ruins left behind at some time, looking for treasures, relics, and everything of great value, and then return to the ground to sell.

Speaking of explorers, in Chen Shi's view, it is more like a group of tomb robbers and robbers, just because of the diary on the first page, the nameless explorer complained about himself, because he encountered other explorers, was robbed of the relics he found, and almost lost his life.

The nameless explorer complained about his bad luck, but not much resentment against the group of explorers, so it can be seen that in this "ruined city", black eating black should be an extremely common thing.

For the sake of treasure, for the sake of wealth, unscrupulous means, is the code of conduct of this group of explorers.

Turning the second page, although there are still diaries in the content, most of them are related to what they have seen and heard along the way, and these contents are the most beneficial information for Chen Shi, so I can't help but read them carefully.

"Well, those words...... It's too sloppy, isn't it? ”

Chen Shi looked at it for a while, and couldn't help but feel dizzy, these scribbled handwriting reminded him of the doctor's diagnosis list in the past, sometimes no matter how carefully he tried to identify it, he could hardly read those handwriting, and now the handwriting written by this nameless explorer gave Chen Shi such a feeling. And there are traces of smearing in many places.

"Well, maybe it did it on purpose......"

Chen Shi suddenly had an idea, such scribbled handwriting and smeared traces, maybe this unknown explorer deliberately, since the "ruined capital" is full of ruins and treasures, then an explorer's diary is equivalent to an alternative treasure, and the value must be not small.

In order to prevent the diary from falling into the hands of someone else and subsequently being identified and flipped, it is not an inconceivable manipulation to deliberately scribble the handwriting so that others cannot read it.

Realizing this, Chen Shi frowned slightly, and the handwriting was sloppy, if his guess was correct, and the nameless explorer even maliciously misled the pickers in the diary, it was also very likely.

Thinking of this, he no longer struggled to identify and speculate word by word, but to search for the keyword, that is, the information of the ninth layer.

Flipping through the pages quickly, Chen Shi's eyes kept browsing the parchment, and it was not until the last few pages of the entire manual that he finally found the relevant information on the ninth floor.

"The ninth layer, the name of the place, 'Endless Abyssal Sea'...... On the ninth floor of the Ruined City, there is an endless cave abyss, this huge cave, surrounded by cliffs, and the miraculous thing is that on top of these cliffs, there is actually a circle of stairs that surround it, which is really incredible......"

In the middle is another scribbled mark, and the legible handwriting is already in the third row.

"Over the past few hundred years, more than 170,000 explorers have been registered in the 'Ruined Capital', and the number of corpses left behind by explorers who have not been registered and entered without permission is ten times that number. But I've been in the 'Ruined City' 19 times, and I never imagined that one day, I would actually reach the legendary ninth layer, the 'Endless Abyssal Sea'. How many years ago was the last explorer to reach the ninth level of the 'Endless Abyssal Sea'? I think, well, it should have been 47 years ago...... If I make it out alive, I will be famous, and the king may receive me and present me with the highest medal of honor. ”

When Chen Shi saw this, his frowning brows relaxed, the cave used by the "behind-the-scenes" was obviously the "tower pillar" leading to the upper realm, and the intelligent life in the upper realm actually found the "tower pillar" and explored it, which is not at all different from the "new people", the "new people" let alone explore the "tower pillar", they didn't even find it.

However, it can also be seen from the text here that it is quite dangerous to explore the passage of the upper and lower realms, if this nameless explorer is not wrong, nearly two million people have entered the passage of the upper and lower realms for hundreds of years, but most of them have only left corpses, and the danger is not strong.

However, as long as intelligent life has a social form, then the pursuit of wealth will become fanatical, and for the sake of wealth, knowing that the "ruined city" is full of dangers, there are still countless people who come in one after another, and in this respect, they are no different from human beings.

"There are very few people who have reached the ninth floor...... No, there shouldn't be many. ”

Chen Shi smiled, no wonder this nameless explorer wrote this paragraph in such detail, this is for fear that he will die, and no one knows about the "great cause" he has done, and now he leaves this text, in case a successor arrives in the future, he can spread his deeds, in the final analysis, it is still for fame.

But this is normal, and those who can see through the fame will not take a huge risk to come here. If you are taking a risk to come here, you must have your own desires.

He continued to look down over the scribbled and scribbled sections.

"Legend has it that the last two floors of the 'Ruined City' have almost never been explored, and there are countless treasures waiting for explorers to arrive, but unfortunately, there are very few explorers who can reach the fifth layer, and how can the eighth and ninth floors be expected? But I was different, I made it through the eighth floor by tricks...... The ninth floor, I have finally arrived, the ancient explorer's diary states that the ninth floor can see the truth of the 'Ruined Capital', know the true origin of the 'Ruined Capital', I am not very interested in treasures, relics or anything, I just want to know where we came from in my lifetime? Where will the future go? Who created us? ”

The one who created us, the handwriting ends here.
