Chapter 1287

~5 min read 850 words

His spirit was like a revolving lantern, and within the inheritance light orb he saw almost every inheritance there was, yet his spiritual power seemed to carry some kind of inherent isolation, so those inheritances remained utterly beyond his reach.

Afterwards, Lin Cheng found Ma Keboluo's inheritance among them, and in a fit of pique attached it to the already-crafted double revolvers.

Instantly, the double revolvers as a whole emitted a strange white light; after a few seconds the white light quickly dispersed, and they returned once more to their plain and unadorned appearance.

But now, Lin Cheng clearly sensed a feeling of being watched, and this sense of surveillance came from the double revolvers right before his eyes; it was a very strange feeling, one that did not send a chill down one's back.

Nor did it make one feel comfortable — in short, it was simply a feeling of being watched.

Perhaps it was psychological, making him feel a little uncomfortable.

"Holy shit, who the hell is talking?"

The system's voice didn't sound like this either.

"Buddy, I'm right here in your hand."

As if in response, the double revolvers in Lin Cheng's hand suddenly emitted some light.

"Damn, you've actually become sentient?"

Only now did Lin Cheng clearly see and hear that the glowing double revolvers in his hand were actually talking, and he nearly tossed them out.

"It doesn't really count as becoming sentient — this is just a wisp of my remnant soul. After all, my family did inherit..."

"... one of the lineages of the Power of Miracle. The Power of Miracle let my remnant soul linger on until now." The voice of regretful sighing rose once more in Lin Cheng's mind, and the other party's words of emotion reminded him of someone!

"You wouldn't happen to be the Wandering Gun, Ma Keboluo, would you?"

The voice admitted it without the slightest hesitation.

"Yes, I don't know how long it's been — ever since the King Continent was destroyed, it's been ages since I heard anyone address me like that."

"The King Continent was destroyed? What happened?" Lin Cheng frowned as he asked; comparatively speaking, he was more curious about how the King Continent had been destroyed.

"Don't you know? As the last hope of the many Divine Vessels..."

Lin Cheng shook his head, completely unaware of the reason.

"If he had known, he wouldn't be asking this remnant soul of Ma Keboluo here. Ark core authority — what level have you raised it to?" Ma Keboluo did not answer directly, and instead asked the system.

Within his remaining memory fragments, some incomplete images flashed by, as if he had recalled something? But it seemed he could not for the moment remember what those images actually represented.

To tell the truth, Lin Cheng actually had no real interest in the true reason for the King Continent's destruction — it was just a passing whim.

Since Ma Keboluo had brought it up, he was only briefly curious.

"The Ark core is right — once you raise your authority, you'll know why the continent was destroyed." The voice that came from Ma Keboluo carried a certain teasing tone........

To Lin Cheng's ears it seemed to carry a mocking intent; his gaze instantly cooled. Ma Keboluo had suddenly brought up the topic of the King Continent's destruction, yet he didn't want to tell him — hemming and hawing like this, stirring up his interest only to snuff out that spark of curiosity.

Was he toying with him?

"Don't you know?" The cold voice carried a hint of impatience.

The sharp-eared Ma Keboluo immediately noticed Lin Cheng's impatience.

"Huh? What did I just say? Why can't I remember what I said a moment ago?" When Ma Keboluo spoke, a certain indescribable sound clearly appeared for a brief instant, as if his words had been forcibly altered by some power, preventing Lin Cheng from learning more information.

Now Ma Keboluo seemed to have lost his memory, unable to recall what he had said just a second ago.

Lin Cheng couldn't read any facial expression on the two guns, so he remained skeptical.

How did he let this secret slip out — really, getting old, body not what it used to be. Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

At the border between the Tianwu Empire and the Chirperi Kingdom, the Third Imperial Prince Li Chun and two legion commanders led an army of four hundred thousand troops out under cover of darkness, arriving almost without a sound at the entrance of the Natural Danger Canyon.

The Natural Danger Canyon nominally belonged to the Chirperi Kingdom, but in reality this canyon was the bottom line for both sides and did not belong to either party; on this side of the Natural Danger Canyon was the Tianwu Empire, and on the other side was the Chirperi Kingdom.

Trade between the two nations also had to pass through this shortcut, and this shortcut was also the only passage through which the Tianwu Empire made contact with the various western kingdoms.
