Su Qi and a group of people had already reached the outside of the deep pit, facing the monochrome of the Old Days inside, they extended their hands holding the chips.
It had been tested before, and these chips indeed allowed them without using the power of the World Tree Leaf to enter below.
"This chip... truly is a product of wisdom." Otto was also following the team behind, not allowed by the others to enter, he just waited outside for support.
Otto admired somewhat, "Not only can it contact and communicate above, but it also possesses... a real-time map, battle strategies, weakness probes, and other functions."
"I knew you were no ordinary fellow..."
Su Qi waved his hand, "I’m just an honest and ordinary person who came out from the mountains, with no background or connections."
Luo Shenfu in the ring didn’t believe a word; he had watched in these past few days Su Qi cleverly manipulate everyone around, utilizing endlessly emerging tactics.
He now could no longer see through Su Qi.
Initially, he thought... to inherit the Immortal Path Stele, a fresh blank slate of a Low-level Sequencer.
Numerous mysteries, he could slowly teach him to grow.
The more time they spent together.
The more Luo Shenfu felt... this guy was hardly a blank slate but more of an old fox.
Not only possessing various tactics but even as a Low-level, in various other domains, he was filled with talents, easily manipulating everyone.
But he didn’t believe it.
Others did, after all, most among them were from strong backgrounds and lineages, and some... possessed extraordinary chances but had also seen the world, step by step to Sequence 6.
And while they were surprised at Su Qi’s abilities, they could still accept it.
"You shouldn’t belittle yourself," Deep Blue gently said, "Even without a great background, you have your own opportunities!"
Deep Blue revealed a smile, "Being able to enter here, you can already be called a companion."
It wasn’t just the recognition of the World Tree Leaf, but also the shared life-and-death battles.
Moreover, Su Qi had been crucial in assisting them.
Of course... including all those debts, Contracts... if they really had to leave, everything wagered before would be locked in because none of them were people who would break their promises, and the contract papers they signed had spiritual energy verification.
"Alright, less chit-chat, let’s discuss some strategies before entering here."
Deep Blue looked at Su Qi, "Actually, it’s mainly to remind you, since we all have entered before, we didn’t want you to know too much initially, considering that probing into the Old Days would taint you with Ominous, the more you are tainted, the harder it is to leave."
"But, now that we’ve decided to enter together, there are some things you must be informed about."
The sword-wielding man in black nodded gently, quietly saying:
"That being in the deepest part is an Old Days Life, the power of an Old Days Life is totally different from ours."
"They act like enforcers of some rules, ignoring everything... once you step into the Old Days, they will come to devour everything, every trace, every existence."
Su Qi stroked his chin, although already familiar with the Old Days, knowledge is always renewing.
Regarding the positioning of the Old Days, Su Qi had a guess... if he had to summarize it in a simple way.
Su Qi only had three words.
It acted like a recycle bin that deletes everything, dealing with all redundancies, unnecessary, collapsing items, even... those affecting system stability.
Could it be for this reason that various old hubs existed?
Like running too many software applications, more than memory can bear?
The Black-clothed Swordsman said gently, "That being below, although its combat strength is quite strong, it’s still within our understanding."
"And most importantly, its core ability is a camera; whatever it captures... will directly be locked into the photo, becoming a part of the picture hanging on the wall."
"You might not know how densely packed those frames below are, so once you see it raise the camera, you must be careful."
The youth slightly smiled, "But don’t worry, your safety isn’t a big issue, after all, no matter what, a few of us will protect you."
Su Qi paused slightly.
Then he noticed Divine Eye, "Old Five" and the short-haired woman all standing together.
"We three mainly assist," Divine Eye shrugged, "Not as fierce in combat as they are, but keeping you safe is no problem."
Old Five also smiled, saying, "Don’t worry, you won’t even have to join the battle, just stand far back."
"Because all those chips are linked to you, you are our key opportunity for success."
"Alright, no problem, then you all better keep up with me."
Su Qi smiled slightly, though he didn’t refuse, since once they went down, it was no longer under their control.
Also, after going down, Starfire Chips had already been set up, even in Old Days it would allow short-distance transmission.
"By the way, what is our ultimate goal? What was it...?"
Deep Blue gently replied, "World Tree Seed, hidden among the picture frames below; we need to simultaneously battle that Old Days’ being and find the seed among those densely packed picture frames."
"It does sound straightforward."
"But in reality, it is not that simple, not to mention the terrifying, bizarre nature of that Old Days’ being, just finding a hidden World Tree Seed in those densely packed frames... is like finding a needle in a haystack..."
