The existence of the rifts had been officially discovered and announced by the Star Federation a long time ago.
The rifts were everywhere, and countless changes were taking place.
Even the technologically advanced and influential Star Federation had no way of exploring the rifts.
There were too many rifts.
The space of a normal person's bedroom was no more than a hundred cubic meters, but there were tens of millions of rifts.
They were the ripples caused by the collision of different dimensions, and also the rifts caused by the contact of countless different dimensions.
No one could explain the formation of the rifts.
Over the years, the Star Alliance had tried many different techniques. In the end, they discovered that only living creatures with a complete soul could explore the gap. Only then could they get some information.
Any cloned creatures with incomplete souls, or robots without souls, would disappear completely if they entered the rifts.
Over time, the profession known as Explorer was born.
After years of exploration, the explorers had achieved a certain level of success, so more and more explorers simply formed a guild — the Adventurer's Guild.
Maffey and An Wei were two small fries in the Explorer's Guild.
Maffey put away the knife and looked at the tip. There was a faint purplish black color there. The original silver material had been completely contaminated.
"It's the residual void poison. Be careful, don't let your skin come into contact with anything here!"
She warned in a low voice.
"Got it!" An Wei nodded.
The two girls slowly got up, one in front of the other, and carefully walked through the ruins of the gray buildings.
Based on the decades of exploration by the guild, they had found many rules.
One of the rules was that the Inspector was an absolute existence that could not be defeated.
If they encountered an Inspector in the rifts, the only way was to run or hide.
The Inspector was the name given by the guild to some special individual monsters in the rifts.
Maffey recalled the characteristics of the Inspector.
They had bodies that could not be killed. No matter how many times they were killed, they would quickly regenerate.
They could move at the speed of sound.
Most importantly, the Inspector also had a powerful energy weapon that he could not determine the source of.
Since machines could not enter the rifts, humans could only rely on themselves to explore.
According to the combat rating, even a complete squadron of mechs would not be able to defeat a monster that had reached the level of an Inspector in any rift.
Without external help, humans would be courting death if they wanted to face a monster of this level.
Super speed, terrifying strength, area of effect energy weapons, and an unkillable body.
This was also the reason why the Starry Sky Federation could not explore the rift on a large scale.
The mortality rate was too high.
Moreover, the gaps were everywhere. They were simply endless, and there was no way to explore them all.
"Let's go."
Maffey called out to An Wei. The two of them carefully walked along the corner of the building and headed towards the inner ring of Infinite City.
This was a special city that they had only recently discovered. The space between them was constantly changing, and there were all sorts of strange things inside.
The Federation had once tried to replicate the various kinds of knowledge in the gap. Unfortunately, it seemed that due to the different rules, the knowledge could not be used after leaving the gap. After that, he gave up.
The goal of the two ladies was to find precious high-energy substances.
Their equipment was found in this city.
Since non-living things could not be brought into the Rift, most Explorer teams were of the same gender, or couples.
This was to prevent the awkwardness of the team members entering the gap naked.
Maffey leaned against the wall, maintaining a posture where she was almost touching the wall. She slowly poked her head out to check the situation on the street beside the building.
They were lucky. If they had entered this environment from the beginning, they would have been poisoned to death. Their bodies were cold.
Fortunately, when they first came here, they were at the outermost area of Infinite City, in a ruin that was about to collapse.
Maffey carefully poked one eye out to look at the street.
She could vaguely hear a faint sound coming from the depths of the fog on the street.
But when she looked over, there seemed to be no problem.
"It's okay. The patrollers are walking in front. They just left. This is the safest time for us."
She turned around and whispered to An Wei.
"Then let's hurry up. There are so many shops on the side of the street. We can definitely find something good!" An Wei quickly replied. "I'll turn on the Explorer immediately. Keep an eye out."
The Explorer was something that she had used her basic knowledge to make in Infinite City.
This was the key to Maffey's decision to bring her along.
An Wei was very talented in the field of electronics.
Although the Explorer was a very simple and crude device that could only detect metal objects, it still brought them rich rewards.
The two of them looked around vigilantly. Then, they walked out of their hiding place and began to search the shops one by one.
With the help of the Explorer that An Wei made, the two of them soon had a few small metal utensils in their hands.
Such a harvest made the two of them overjoyed. They continued to speed up the search of metal objects.
However, the two of them didn't notice that while they were searching, a figure suddenly appeared in front of them.
The surrounding black fog was gradually deepening and thickening.
Silhouettes of people in white had appeared at a dead end of the street out of nowhere. Their faces were expressionless as they walked quickly toward the shop where the two of them were.
…
…
Lin Sheng gently reached out and caught a trace of the surrounding black fog.
"I thought it was the Blacktide. It's just ordinary black fog …"
He looked calm as he dispersed the black fog in his hand and slowly walked out of the teaching building.
There was no valuable information found in the entire teaching building.
He had originally wanted to look for books or records of this place. Unfortunately, most of the things in the teaching building were completely corroded and broken.
"It's just that when the Horse King tested the teleportation circle, the teleportation went smoothly. The relevant information I got shouldn't be from this ruined city, right?"
Lin Sheng looked at the deserted city in front of him, puzzled.
Suddenly, his eyes flashed, and a few white figures suddenly appeared not far in front of him.
They were three apathetic human figures that were entirely white in color. There was no soul fluctuation on them. It seemed that they were just pure images.
"Huh? What's that? "When Lin Sheng could not contact his summoned soldiers, he had been on high alert.
Now, something unusual finally appeared in front of him.
"Can you … speak?" Lin Sheng quickly spoke. First, it was the Gourenne language, then the Deviltongue, then the Chaos language, and then the Fairies language …
He had mastered more than a dozen languages, and he quickly tried them one by one.
But the three white figures did not respond.
"Still can't communicate?" Lin Sheng glanced at the two figures' tattered clothes. A look of pity appeared on his face.
"Forget it. Since you've lost consciousness, why don't you come with me first. Maybe I can help you regain consciousness later."
He raised his hand, and a white light immediately flew out, accurately enveloping the three white figures.
The three figures felt something was wrong. Their faces suddenly became ferocious as they lunged at Lin Sheng.
But it was too late.
"Don't worry. I'll protect you." Lin Sheng said solemnly. With a clench of his fist, the white light disappeared, along with the three white figures that were standing on the spot.
