Chapter 952: Production Thread 2

The three giant wolves ran for multiple hours before the white abandoned stone structures appeared on the horizon. Some of the structures had cylindrical column and some walls were already broken. There was also a lot of toy-like rubbish that was spread across the floor. The ruin looked extremely old.

They eventually entered the inner regions of the ancient ruins as the wolves kept pressing on.

Surrounding that area, abandoned building structures became more and more as they entered.

“Be careful. This ancient ruin is different from the other ruins. Rumor has it that people often encounter a frightening scene. Those who do not encounter it would return safely while those who encounter the frightening scene had all disappeared and they never returned.” East Perrin stopped in his tracks as the intensity of the radiation would be unbearable for him if he were to keep moving forward.

“Relax. We will come out the moment we find the Production Thread that can be used to create the Chip Element. We just need to get our hands on the main item, the Control Terminal and the remaining parts of the Production Thread can be sourced elsewhere. There are many replacement parts that can produce the same precision,” Fanny smiled as he comforted, “wait for our good news here.”

“Yes, it’s fine. Don’t worry about us and wait for our news back home,” Garen nodded as well.

“Alright then.” East Perrin walked towards one of the broken walls and squatted down as he got down from the wolf’s back. “I will hide here while I wait for the two of you. Come back soon.”

Garen and Fanny gave an okay gesture with their hands as they rode the wolves and entered deeper into the Seventh Ancient Ruins.

The entire Seventh Ancient Ruins was like an abandoned mechanical factory. Some areas looked like a broken grand theater that had not been used for a long time. The exquisitely decorated stage and machines in the area were all broken.

The black machining tools, cutting platform, and heavy-duty roller were neatly arranged just beside the grand theater. It looked extremely strange as if someone had done some performance with the heavy duty roller.

Frankly speaking, who would really use a heavy-duty roller as a part of their performance?

Garen and Fanny walked passed a Ferris wheel. Instead of having seats on the red Ferris wheel, there were sharp blades and the Ferris wheel would squeak about as the wind blew gently.

Both of them looked around as they searched for the much-needed machining tool. The current radiation they were experiencing was thrice the amount compared to outside. Garen had started releasing his Cold Radiation to cancel off to restrain the exposure from the high-intensity radiation. Fanny showered himself within the Cold Radiation and wasn’t affected by it at all. This was all thanks to the modified Distorted Seed.

Wa wa wa…

Suddenly, a child-like cry could be heard from their side.

Growl… The giant wolves stopped their footsteps and started to growl.

Garen and Fanny looked around and saw a few alarm clocks with limbs flying in midair, running away from them, though they weren’t too far away. They then disappeared, as if they were like some meddling kids fooling around.

Beep beep beep… Click click…

A sudden noise came from the other side as a few gears with butterfly wings flew past them.

“What is this!” Garen immediately picked up a pebble and threw it at one of the gears. The palm-sized gear was hit straight at the center with great precision.

The pebble pierced through the gear and surprisingly, blood started bleeding out from the center of the gear, just like a human would. It then dropped to the ground and disappeared the moment it touched the ground. The remaining gear butterflies seemed to be shocked by the event as they flew about randomly until they gradually vanished.

Then, an innocent laughter of a child filled the entire area.

“Let’s hurry up. Something strange is going on here.” Garen felt that the soul of the Nine Headed Dragon deep within him was on guard. His face turned serious. He knew that if something could threaten the Nine Headed Dragon, it was definitely something dangerous.

“Alright,” Fanny felt something strange going on as well.

Both of them ushered the giant wolves to run inside while they kept looking around for the Production Thread they wanted.

The black factory equipment, white abandoned buildings, and the red stages were everywhere. Occasionally, the Ferris wheel and wooden carriage were stuck in between them.

Lalala… Lalala… Suddenly, towards the front-left side, a rectangular silver machining tool with four of its limbs was skipping about while humming a song.

“What the hell! I just saw a machining tool taking a stroll!” Fanny was speechless as he stared at the bloated machining tool twitching its stomach about. It was walking around happily.

“What’s troublesome is that thing on it.” Garen didn’t pay attention to the strange machining tool but rather the brown bear puppet on it.

The small bear puppet looked very cute with its two black eyes, white mouth, and nose. Its limbs were holding onto the machining tools. Suddenly, as if it had noticed their presence, it turned its head around. Its lips then arched upwards, revealing a very cute smile.

Suddenly, its lips cracked open and the bear’s mouth was extended to its ears! It revealed a sinister smile, as well as its sharp fangs.

“F*ck me! What is that thing!?” Fanny’s jaw dropped as he saw the bear puppet pounced towards them with its wide mouth open. As that happened, its body grew bigger and bigger.

The inside of its mouth was blood red and it kept giving off a stench that no word could describe. Its mouth expanded quickly from the size of a palm to a meter, two meters, three meters, and five meters wide before it pounced towards them!

By the time it was in front of them, that mouth was already six meters wide!

Roar!

A deep and fierce growl came from Garen in which this shapeless roar stunned the bear.

Poof!

The bear immediately turned around and fled like a deflating balloon as it flew far away. Within seconds, it had disappeared from their sight.

They regained their composure after that.

Fanny was drench in cold sweat and he didn’t even have the intention to evade it at all! He knew that he was in danger but he had no intention of evading or attacking. All he did was stare at the bloody big mouth that was coming towards them.

“I’ve… seen a ghost!” He muttered.

Garen’s face was gloomy as well.

It was an evil force that involved the soul, the dream world, illusions, and a lot of other stuff. All these while he had thought that the force didn’t discriminate evil or justice but used the nature of the user. However, when he sensed the aura of the little bear, he finally understood what a real evil force was!

“Bring that machining tool along and we’re leaving!” He said.

By the time Fanny looked at that tool again, it had already turned back to normal, standing firmly on the ground. He didn’t even know how he came out alive from that incident.

The tool no longer had long legs, a bear puppet or even taking a stroll on its own. Fanny felt that what he just saw was just an illusion.

“Did I just witness an illusion?” He whispered.

“If you think that it is an illusion, then it is. If you think that is real, then it shall be real,” Garen replied coldly. Since he had some knowledge of the Witch’s aspect of the Dream World and its system, he knew how profound the system was. The damage done in the Dream World would often leave its mark in the Material World as well.

The duo brought the giant wolves along to the machining tool to take off the control terminal and a few high precision main parts. They then put them into the parcels that they brought along.

“Let’s leave immediately!” Garen didn’t want to stay here any longer before the evil aura started to gather once more. It was formless and seemed to be a pure illusion of evil energy. Inside it was a combination of pain, evil thoughts, jealousy, tyranny, innocence, and cuteness clustered together into an entity.

Both of them immediately left the area with the main parts of the machining tools.

A few palm-sized soybeans with nose, eyes, and mouth started singing as it rolled beside them, floating in the air.

Choo choo! Choo choo! Choo choo choo choo!

It mimicked the noise of a train as they kept on rolling.

“F*ck off!” Fanny waved his hands as he felt that the sound was making him dizzy.

However, he couldn’t touch these soybeans with his hands.

Then, the gears with butterfly wings started to appear once more as it kept flying around and above their heads.

“Hurry!” Garen felt that that evil energy was getting stronger. If not for the consciousness of the Nine Headed Dragon that was threatening them, they might have already been swallowed by this energy.

He wouldn’t be able last long as the consciousness of the Nine Headed Dragon wasn’t something he could control at will unless he had mastered his Secret Technique.

The duo ran for their lives as they followed the path they came from.

As they ran, the ground started to move, causing them and the wolves to not be able to stand firmly.

“It’s trying to… stop us… from leaving…” Garen turned his head around and his voice seemed to have slowed down, making it sound deeper and slower just like a movie being played in slow motion.

“Run…” Fanny realized his voice became very slow and deep as he shouted.

Moreover, Fanny’s ears, nose, and eyes started bleeding. Red blood slowly flowed down his cheeks.

He wiped off the blood out of fear. As he tried to increase his pace, the giant wolf underneath him started to behave strangely. It kneeled down and refused to run any further.

“Run!” Suddenly a powerful force pulled along his collar and threw him out.

Fanny could only feel that the sky was spinning around as he was thrown very far away. The next thing he felt was a heavy crash onto the field outside of the Ancient Ruins.

Boom!

Ouch… As he regained his consciousness, he saw Garen flying out behind him and started running once more the moment he got to his feet.

Two giant wolves were left behind. They were instantly swallowed by the invisible force and they vanished.

“Run!” Garen shouted as they, including East Perrin who was hiding, started running away from the Seventh Ancient Ruins.
