Chapter 213: Chapter 213: Ancient God Relics – Five Connected Pools (Fourth Watch)
Translator: 549690339
Five Connected Pools was located a thousand miles further north from Ice City. The area was originally a group of volcanoes. The volcano lakes atop five peaks were interconnected, hence the name Five Connected Pools.
When the Leo meteor shower descended, the Five Connected Pools became a disaster area, bombarded by countless meteors that left the landscape riddled with holes and created many unique climate features.
In this volcanic region, two volcanoes erupted year-round, and the climate was extremely harsh, with violent storms. The area was also shrouded in thick smoke and volcanic ash, so no one approached it. Over time, the many mutated creatures that lived there formed a unique group.
The original creatures here were poisonous insects that had adapted to the conditions and remained within their territory, not venturing into the outside world. Likewise, creatures from the outside were unwilling to enter. The ancient ruins were thus formed in a state of isolation.
Very few people came to the Five Connected Pools, due to not only the challenging climate but the most crucial reason being the absence of Star Artifacts.
Star Artifacts were brought to Earth by meteors. Lin Zhen knew that a planet had shattered, bringing many extraterrestrial objects to Earth. However, none had reached the Five Connected Pools, so no War Gods came here to seek trouble.
Once, an unbelieving team of War Gods entered the Five Connected Pools through its entrance and crossed four volcanoes. In the end, only one of the ten War Gods survived and returned empty-handed. That was when the ominous reputation of the Five Connected Pools began to spread, known as the most useless ancient ruins.
However, Lin Zhen knew for a fact that not long before the fall of Ice City’s Base City in his previous life, the secret of the Five Connected Pools was discovered. The Technology Department found that the creatures here had a unique trait: combining the crystals in their brains with another drug, a powerful dark energy could be produced, serving as a replacement for the Dark Energy Stone that War Gods used.
