Looking at the small triangular crystal cone struggling between his thumbs, Gu Ran fell into deep thought.
"You're craving?"
Gu Ran said softly.
Of course, the triangular crystal cone could not answer Gu Ran's question, but it was still struggling.
"You are a mermaid... No, maybe you are not a mermaid..."
Gu Ran let go of the triangular crystal cone.
The triangular crystal cone emitted a faint fluorescence and flew towards the Dragon Blood River.
Gu Ran followed behind.
This was a compromise that Gu Ran came up with. If he just left, he might miss some adventure, but if he went into the river right then and there, it would attract too much attention, and he was not sure if he would encounter any crisis. So after thinking it over, he decided to follow the triangular crystal cone at night, not going into the river himself, but just watching from a distance.
If it was a trap, he would leave immediately and he would not want the triangular crystal cone anymore since it was not his anyway; if it was an adventure, he would accept it reluctantly.
Gu Ran followed the triangular crystal cone through the slums and came to the Dragon Blood River.
The triangular crystal cone was not moving very fast, as if it was waiting for him. After leaving his hand, the triangular crystal cone no longer glowed, but merged into the night.
However, Gu Ran possesses the highest authority over the triangular crystal cone and is able to sense it, so he is able to follow behind without losing it.
When he arrived at the river, the voice rang in Gu Ran's ears again.
"You are here... You are indeed the destined one... Take what belongs to you..."
The triangular crystal cone immediately sank into the river.
The next moment, Gu Ran felt that the energy of the triangular crystal cone seemed to be increasing...
It's like a triangular crystal cone is plugged into a socket and starts charging.
If it were daytime, you could see the Dragon Blood River changing from light blue to blood red, and the blood red was slowly condensing into a vortex, with the triangular crystal cone at the very center of the vortex.
When Gu Ran saw this scene, he felt it was very weird and very much like the sacrificial rituals of some evil cults, which made Gu Ran highly alert.
Suddenly, a dragon's roar broke through the dark night.
The sound was clear and powerful, and it spread all over the place.
Gu Ran's face changed.
With such a big commotion, the ruling center of Canglong City will definitely send people over quickly, and other powerful people in Canglong City will definitely be alarmed.
It’s not a good place to stay for long!
However, the triangular crystal cone in the river seemed to be absorbing something happily and had no intention of returning to his hand.
Gu Ran felt a little anxious, and at the same time, he fully exerted his abilities to blend in with the environment within a radius of several thousand meters.
As long as a strong man enters this range, he will be able to sense it, and at that time, no matter whether the triangular crystal cone has absorbed everything or not, he will retreat. Otherwise, if he is entangled by the strong men of Canglong City, Gu Ran doesn't know whether something bad will happen.
As for the triangular crystal cone, Gu Ran was confident that even if he sent it to Canglong City, he would not be able to figure out anything from it.
This is not a doubt about the scientific research capabilities of Canglong City. Canglong City's scientific research capabilities are already the best in the Human Alliance. It's just that the technology contained in this triangular crystal cone is so magical that Gu Ran can be sure that it is impossible for humans to conduct effective research on it with current capabilities.
Unless he studies it himself, with the highest authority he holds, he might be able to come up with something useful.
Soon, Gu Ran felt that many powerful people were rushing over from the inner city of Canglong City.
However, there was no strong man with fast speed, so Gu Ran did not retreat immediately.
"What on earth has it absorbed? It hasn't absorbed all of it yet... Could it be the energy accumulated by challengers over the years..."
Gu Ran suddenly had a bad guess in his mind, but he felt that he seemed to have guessed the truth.
117. Lanxin University scientific expedition team, Xue Xiling and Gu Ran's first meeting! 4k
Dragon Blood River The Dragon Blood River may contain more than just "dragon blood". The blood and flesh energy of the various creatures that previously drowned in the river may not have disappeared in the long river of time, but have instead accumulated.
Just like stored “energy blocks”, waiting for the “destined person” to absorb these “energy blocks”
No, that's not right. These stored "energies" are not waiting for him, but for the triangular crystal cone!
Gu Ran suddenly felt that he had discovered a blind spot.
Is it because of me that the triangular crystal cone has the opportunity to come here and absorb these "energies", or is it because of the triangular crystal cone that I came here
Gu Ran couldn't help but recall his past, wondering to what extent his decisions were influenced by the outside world. However, after thinking about it, he had no clue for the time being, and his thoughts returned to this ability itself.
"This evil ability... is it some kind of supernatural power or some kind of technology?"
The situation in the Dragon Blood River looks more like an extraordinary phenomenon, but the triangular crystal cone seems more like some kind of technological product.
Did he just happen to get the triangular crystal cone and then happen to come to Canglong City, or were all his accidental actions inevitable
The destined person
What fate? Who determined it
Or was it just a prophecy? Not specifically directed at him
With thousands of thoughts flashing through his mind, Gu Ran immediately took two steps back. Seeing that the triangular crystal cone seemed to still be absorbing the "energy" in the river, he pondered for a moment, then immediately left and headed towards the wilderness outside the city.
He doesn't want the triangular crystal cone anymore!
Along the way, Gu Ran didn't even look back to see if the triangular crystal cone was following him, as if he had made up his mind to abandon it.
Suddenly, a long moan was heard from the Dragon Blood River.
However, this time the long chant was filled with a sense of decadence, and the sound was even gradually fading, as if it was slowly walking out of time and finally returning to eternal silence!
Gu Ran left even faster, he seemed to be flying in the air, his body was very light, but his feet were firmly on the ground.
Gu Ran's speed had already surpassed that of most human vehicles. In just a dozen minutes, he had passed through the slums and arrived in the wilderness.
The world fell into silence. Not only was there no more dragon roars, but even the chirping of insects and roaring of beasts could not be heard. It seemed that they dared not make a sound under that long roar.
But even when they arrived in the wilderness, Gu Ran still did not stop, but continued to move towards the depths of the wilderness.
Gu Ran didn't even bother to identify the direction, he just chose a direction at random and kept moving forward.
After walking for another ten minutes, Gu Ran finally stopped.
After stopping, Gu Ran found a relatively clean and soft piece of grass, sat on it, closed his eyes and waited.
After a while, Gu Ran opened his eyes.
In front of him was the three-sided crystal cone that he had brought out of the ocean.
The small triangular crystal cone seemed to be no different from the original one, but Gu Ran, who possessed the highest authority over the triangular crystal cone, could feel the surging "energy" inside.
However, this surging energy still did not fill the triangular crystal cone. Gu Ran could feel its strong "hunger and emptiness".
Although it was not full, Gu Ran felt that the triangular crystal cone seemed to have a new function.
Storage.
For Gu Ran, who once possessed spatial powers, this newly added function of the triangular crystal cone was extremely familiar to him.
He could feel that there was a small, self-contained world inside the triangular crystal cone, and this small world seemed to have functions that were very worthy of subsequent development. It had not yet been revealed, and its only use now was to receive and store items from the outside world.
I have to say that although this is only a small function of the triangular crystal cone, it is very practical.
Using spatial abilities for portable storage, Gu Ran had thought about this problem before when he had spatial abilities. However, at that time he could not create a small world on his own to store items, so he gave up temporarily.
However, he did not expect to get such a treasure now. Gu Ran became more and more curious about who created this treasure.
"I wonder if Leng Feng can create a portable treasure for storage with his strength." Gu Ran thought.
Although the triangular crystal cone became more attractive after the "upgrade", Gu Ran seemed somewhat indifferent.
He just looked at the triangular crystal cone without making any movement.
The "semi-intelligence" of the triangular crystal cone seemed to have become a little smarter. It found its own way and returned to Gu Ran's pocket.
"It seems that it has identified me."
Gu Ran did not refuse the triangular crystal cone returning to him.
He was just doing an experiment, or a test, to see if this triangular crystal cone could escape danger, find him, and come back.
The final results proved that the triangular crystal cone could indeed escape on its own without attracting any other strong men, and could indeed find him and return to him.
Gu Ran looked at the night sky and left without waiting for dawn. He identified the direction and left directly.
He had no intention of going back to see what had happened. Needless to say, after the two dragon roars, the area around the Dragon Blood River must be full of powerful people from Canglong City who were investigating the truth of the incident. If he went back to see what had happened to the Dragon Blood River at this time to satisfy his curiosity, wouldn't that be walking into a trap
Gu Ran traveled towards Suzaku City overnight.
Gu Ran, who traveled day and night, had no idea how far he was from Canglong City. He did not stop until the sky became light, then he started to prepare breakfast.
After taking out the fire starter he had snatched from the bounty hunter and lighting a bonfire, Gu Ran began to look for his prey.
Gu Ran didn't mind whether it was an ordinary wild beast or a mutated ferocious beast. Now he just wanted to fill his stomach and continue on his way.
Suddenly, Gu Ran frowned slightly, he felt a battle happening not far away.
After thinking about it, Gu Ran walked up and prepared to observe before deciding what to do.
In the vast wilderness, a convoy was surrounded by a group of ferocious beasts.
"Lyceum University?"
