Chapter 1416 The Wasteland
Chen Mu's thoughts are simple and kind.
Going to eerie scenes is, after all, a bit dangerous and tiring.
Tian Shih-han had just gotten up and was responsible for the defense of the Desert Black Hole. How could I possibly drag her over to be a laborer?
It's like when someone politely asks, "Do you need any help?" Of course, you'd say, "No, no."
Chen Mu didn't notice that after saying those words, a hint of disappointment flashed in Tian Shihan's eyes.
Chen Mu assumed that Tian Shihan had just woken up and happened to open the door and bump into them.
However, Chen Mu hadn't considered the possibility that Tian Shihhan hadn't slept at all that night. Moreover, after Xiao Ye arrived, Tian Shihhan hid behind the door, eavesdropping on their conversation.
Just as the two were about to leave, Tian Shih-Han happened to open the door and bump into them. She then made a casual invitation, asking, "Do you need my help (take me with you)?"
However, Chen Mu had never even considered this possibility.
After all, anyone with a normal mind knows that going to eerie locations is mostly arduous, tiring, and dangerous.
Chen Mu didn't think that he had such great personal charm that others would want to go to strange places with him.
Therefore, Chen Mu waved to Tian Shihan and then left with Xiao Ye.
Tian Shihhan stood on the grass in the yard, watching Chen Mu's departing figure.
On the other side, Chen Mu and Xiao Ye moved with exceptional speed.
The two quickly burst out of the atmosphere and, in the blink of an eye, broke through into the dark outer space.
"Kizuki-hime, send me the location of the spaceship." On Xiaoye's wrist was a watch from the Tribunal, which allowed her to communicate with Kizuki-hime via satellite.
The next second, the coordinates of the stationary spaceship were sent to Xiaoye's watch.
"Boss, come with me, I'll lead the way," Xiao Ye said efficiently.
Chen Mu followed behind, a relieved smile on his face.
It seems that Xiaoye has indeed grown a lot over this long period of time.
From previously simply following behind me, I've now become more proactive and can share the burden of my own work.
Guided by Xiaoye, half an hour later, the two finally spotted the stationary spaceship in the vast expanse of space.
After Chen Mufei got closer, he discovered something that surprised him.
The bow of the spaceship had already partially disappeared.
It looked like someone was taking a knife and cutting off a corner of an oval-shaped bread.
Chen Mu went to the other side of the cut surface, and from there, he could even see the parts of the spaceship's cut surface.
All the parts were intact, except that some of them disappeared along with the spaceship.
The cut surface is smooth and rounded, with no visible signs of damage.
Xiao Ye also came over at this moment, "Boss, I confirmed with them an hour ago that the spaceship is intact."
It now appears that, over time, the spaceship, which was stuck in the bizarre scene, is slowly being swallowed up by it.
Chen Mu nodded. He could see that the spaceship was sliding into the bizarre scene at a rate of 1 centimeter being swallowed up every minute.
"Let's go in and take a look."
Chen Mu led the way by opening the hatch and entering the spaceship, with Xiao Ye following closely behind.
As expected, it was just as described.
When the two entered the spaceship, what they found before them was not the spaceship's interior environment at all, but a moss-covered tombstone in the middle of a forest.
Chen Mu walked on the ground, his feet crunching on the vines in the forest.
"Search carefully and see if you find anything," Chen Mu said.
Both of them were top-tier experts, and they weren't afraid at all in such a terrifying environment.
The two then split up and began to explore the forest.
Chen Mu walked eastward for about five minutes until he found himself facing a huge abyss.
To the left of the abyss is a forest, and to the right it stretches infinitely into the distance.
"If I'm not mistaken, this should be the 'invisible wall' of the eerie scene. This eerie scene is quite small; you can walk through it in five minutes."
Chen Mu muttered to himself, adding a casual complaint.
He continued walking along the edge.
After walking for about ten minutes, Chen Mu realized that he had circled back to the starting point.
"We've come full circle, which means the edges of the eerie scene are circular. It's a circular forest, and judging from its size, it's probably only a long-level eerie scene," Chen Mu analyzed. "At most, it's no more than a king-level eerie scene."
The bizarre scene appearing in space was actually just a minor, eerie event?
This left Chen Mu somewhat disappointed; he had thought it was some kind of ancient relic left behind by a top-tier expert.
However, this only made Chen Mu more puzzled.
Even a treacherous creature wouldn't possess the ability to traverse space, would it?
How did that guy manage to take such a bizarre scene to outer space?
Chen Mu felt that there must be some secret hidden behind this.
Chen Mu went around in circles but found nothing.
He then returned the way he came, intending to go and check on Xiaoye.
As soon as Chen Mu returned to Xiao Ye's side, he heard Xiao Ye's voice.
"Boss! I've found something here!"
Chen Mu turned his head and looked, but did not see Xiao Ye.
"Where are you?"
“Boss, I’m here, at the tombstone,” Xiaoye said.
Chen Mu walked over with a puzzled look in his eyes. As soon as he got close, his eyes widened.
He pointed to the torn-away tombstone and asked, "You dug up someone's grave?"
No... In the short time I was wandering around, Xiaoye actually managed to dig up the grave of that eerie scene so quickly.
"Boss, it's not a big deal. As for the eerie scene, this tombstone is probably just a prop."
As Xiaoye spoke, she crawled out from underground.
He was holding a golden box in his hands.
"Boss, what do you think? I've found something. I found a golden treasure chest deep underground." Xiao Ye chuckled. "That weird BOSS hid it so deep, it must contain something good."
Chen Mu looked at the box; judging from its ornate appearance, it was indeed a treasure chest.
"Be careful, in case there are any traps," Chen Mu cautiously reminded him.
"Boss, don't worry. This eerie scene is abandoned. We both came in with our original strength intact. With the two of us working together, what's there to be afraid of?"
As Xiaoye spoke, she reached out her hand, preparing to open the treasure chest.
Chen Mu didn't stop him, after all, the treasure chest was right in front of him, and he wanted to find out what it was all about.
The key to the treasure chest was sealed with eerie energy.
However, Xiaoye didn't have to exert much effort; with a little force, she opened the lid.
The two leaned forward and looked down curiously.
Inside the opened treasure chest lay a pile of ghost money.
