131: Chapter 131 A Last Will from a Previous Civilization: Leave!

"The injuries aren't severe; it's mostly mental trauma."

Zhao Ran concluded after examining Tang Hua.

Upon hearing this,

Li Fan and the others breathed a collective sigh of relief.

Judging by Tang Hua's appearance, she had likely suffered quite a bit over the past few days.

However, in a sense, it was a miracle that Tang Hua had managed to survive alone in this secret realm for so long.

Soon after,

after being given healing medicine,

Tang Hua slowly regained consciousness.

After waking up, it took Tang Hua a good while to process the fact that she was finally safe.

Subsequently, Li Fan and the others learned of Tang Hua's ordeal.

As soon as Tang Hua entered the secret realm, she was teleported to an enclosed space similar to a basement, and it took a tremendous effort to escape from there.

Just as she was about to reach the surface, she saw through a crack a large group of Saint-level fierce beasts entrenched above.

That's right.

Her luck was absolutely abysmal.

She had been teleported directly beneath a nest of Saint-level fierce beasts.

During that time, she searched for any passage leading to the outside world but found nothing.

The only exit was through that beast nest.

So, for the sake of survival, she had stayed in that sunless underground space all these days.

As for how she managed to get out,

she actually had Li Fan to thank.

It was because after Li Fan put away the spaceship, the collapse of the mountain caused a massive noise, triggering a stampede of fleeing beasts.

The group of Saint-level beasts above Tang Hua had also fled at that time.

Afterward, once Tang Hua emerged, she spent her time hiding and moving until she discovered Li Fan and the others shortly after.

Listening to Tang Hua's experience,

the entire group found it both tragic and comical.

Talk about incredible luck!

However, calling it purely bad luck wouldn't be accurate.

At least by staying there, her life was preserved.

Had she been outside, she might have perished long ago.

Once Tang Hua had calmed down slightly, she suddenly remembered something and immediately took out over a dozen capsule-like alloy boxes from her space ring.

"I found these in that basement. I don't know what they are. I've been busy avoiding beasts since I got out and haven't had time to study them," Tang Hua said, scratching her head.

Seeing this,

everyone immediately gathered around.

However, even after a thorough observation by Zhao Ran and the others, they couldn't see anything special about them.

But while Zhao Ran and the others were clueless,

Li Fan was not unfamiliar with them.

Because they looked a bit like the time capsules from Li Fan's previous life.

A so-called time capsule was a high-quality metal box used to preserve messages, buried deep underground or given to an organization to be left for one's future self or for people in the future.

Then,

Li Fan picked up one of the metal boxes and directly twisted it open with brute force.

"Li Fan, you..."

Li Fan's action truly stunned the people beside him.

Such a violent disassembly—what if there was something dangerous inside?

However, Li Fan's hypothesis was soon proven correct.

Once opened, what was sealed inside was indeed a letter.

Thus, Li Fan began to explain, "This is a time capsule. It was likely left by people who used to live in this city, probably containing information for future generations. This method also existed in my hometown, though it was relatively niche."

Hearing this,

everyone was slightly surprised and then chose to break them open with brute force one by one.

To be honest, they were also very curious about this city.

Because the script of this city was different from any country currently on Blue Star, as if it belonged to another civilization entirely.

What kind of information did the people back then leave behind?

After explaining to everyone, Li Fan slowly picked up the letter.

The script on it was still unfamiliar to Li Fan, yet for some reason, he could still understand it.

"Greetings, future descendants:

I am your ancestor, my name is Zheng Yang.

I am twenty-nine years old this year, and this letter was written in the 83rd year of the Wanxia Calendar.

Two years ago, the matter of the Civilization Assessment was made public by the human high command. I was fortunate enough to be selected for the list. After two years of arduous cultivation, in one month, I will battle those fellows from the seabed.

My companions and I are very confident in this assessment, and we firmly believe our elders will achieve victory. Our humanity will surely step into a primary civilization in one leap and go to that vast starry sky. I am absolutely convinced of this!

But of course, I certainly won't be around then, because my strength isn't very high among the seniors; I'll likely die in battle. But I am not sad, because I know my death has meaning. My tombstone will be buried in the Blue Star Cemetery, where the birds sing and flowers bloom, and I'll likely receive some flowers every year.

Anyway, let's talk about the important stuff. You can now enter the universe and have come into contact with the real cosmos, perhaps even leaving a significant mark on universal civilization. For this, I, your ancestor, am very gratified. But I must say, I also long for it, so please take some videos and photos and place them before my tombstone...

..."

Li Fan looked at the letter, then looked up at the surrounding ruins of the dilapidated city.

For a moment, he fell into silence.

Rather than a time capsule, it was more like a suicide note.

From the contents of the note, Li Fan could infer a lot of information.

A long, long time ago, Blue Star must have experienced one or even several civilization cycles.

And during Zheng Yang's time, the Oceanic Alien Race had claimed victory.

The person who wrote this letter, Zheng Yang, was precisely a prodigy of that human civilization.

It was exactly the same as the position they were in now.

In that prodigy's vision, humanity had already entered the starry sky, which is why he wrote such a letter.

But unfortunately, Zheng Yang and the others met with failure.

They also became the last batch of humans in their civilization.

Overall, it was incredibly moving.

On the other side,

Zhao Ran and the others had already opened the other time capsules.

The information inside was actually not much different from Zheng Yang's.

They were all young prodigies of that civilization.

Unfortunately, the failure of the Civilization Assessment meant their suicide notes could only remain in that sunless basement.

"Sigh."

At this moment, a sigh couldn't help but escape Zhao Ran's lips.

One could see that the rest of the group also had solemn expressions, with a lump in their throats, unsure of what to say for a moment.

But it was clear from their faces

that they were faintly worried they would become the next Zheng Yangs.

Seeing the morale so low,

Li Fan finally couldn't take it anymore.

"Who the hell writes a suicide note if they're a normal person?"

"Everyone, this time, we will definitely enter the starry sky!"

"They're just a bunch of stinking fish and rotten shrimp from the sea, let's screw them over!

Even if we don't succeed in the end, we have to take a few of them down with us!"

Li Fan's words were very confident and filled with youthful vigor.

In an instant, it quickly infected everyone present.

"Li Fan is right, let's screw them over!!"

"That's right, just because the previous civilization failed doesn't mean we will too!"

"To hell with suicide notes! We will definitely win this time!"

...

And just as the group was reinvigorating their spirits,

blue vortex gates suddenly appeared all around them.

Following that, the ground actually began to crack, and terrifying black streaks appeared in the sky.

That's right.

The secret realm was about to close.

Seeing this, everyone stepped into the blue vortexes without any hesitation.

Looking across the secret realm at this moment,

such blue vortexes had appeared beside all the humans and Alien Race Prodigies inside.

Once all the humans and aliens had entered the vortexes,

everything in the secret realm began to collapse.
