My Items Can Upgrade-Chapter 364 - 187: ‘Love’ Like the Tides

After Yang Yuan left.

In the shadows, a phantom slowly materialized.

"I told you, trying to win him over, don’t use such a foolish method. Helping in the nick of time? Haha, truly idiotic."

Lu Mei said lightly, "This man used to have two girls by his side, which kept him restrained. He often gave off an impression of being a good-natured, easily bullied person. Now that those two girls are not around him, it’s likely his violent nature will be triggered. If he wants to court death, don’t drag me along."

"Two girls? Who are they? Can we use those two girls to threaten him?" someone in the shadows spoke.

Immediately, Lu Mei sighed, "This is the church? Truly... disappointing! You’re on your own!"

She left directly.

She originally thought she had found a qualified partner.

But it turned out to be a group of idiots, and conceited ones at that.

...

On the desolate desert.

Yang Yuan strode across kilometers with each step.

Although he couldn’t fly here, his physique and strength were too strong. If he really wanted to travel quickly, it wouldn’t be difficult.

However, without a destination, he generally was too lazy to speed up. After all, no matter how fast, without a target, it’s just a waste of effort.

"Where are Jiayan and Yiyi?"

He frowned secretly, having become an NPC, he’d waited in place for three days, but Zhao Jiayan and Jiang Yiyi hadn’t come to find him.

Either they hadn’t discovered him, hadn’t recognized that the Marvel Supplier was him.

Or they weren’t on this continent.

Of course, there were other possibilities, perhaps they were entangled and couldn’t get away temporarily.

"Mr. Yang Yuan..."

Suddenly a voice rang out behind him.

Yang Yuan paused, turned around, and saw a shadow slowly materializing from nothing.

The visitor was Lu Mei, who’d been freed from the Mountain God Mountain, but now she seemed to be having a hard time.

"Was that black-robed man earlier one of your people?"

Yang Yuan asked lightly.

"Mr. Yang Yuan, you misunderstand. That’s someone from the church. They want to win me over, but I’m still observing. This time they discovered your existence, wanting to win you over. I was going to see what method they used, but it was disappointing."

Lu Mei said, "Those people have no value for collaboration. I’d rather work with you than with them."

Yang Yuan didn’t engage with this topic: "Weren’t you going to find the authority buildings? It seems you failed."

"It’s a long story."

Lu Mei sighed softly, "Before I reached my destination, the world changed dramatically."

After a pause, she suddenly said, "If you go in that direction for a hundred thousand miles, there’s a fortress called Shashi Fortress, stationed by the Technology Association. If you’re looking for people, perhaps there you might find news."

Shashi Fortress?

Yang Yuan nodded, "Thank you."

Lu Mei forced a smile, though her whole body was pitch black, making it hard to discern.

"Do you believe in reincarnation or resurrection, Mr. Yang Yuan?"

Suddenly she asked, "Now that the world has become a game, even if just a half-finished one, do you think those who have died have hope of being revived?"

Yang Yuan was taken aback, then said, "I did encounter someone with Identification System abilities before, in a cave about fifty kilometers back, though it’s not necessarily the same person."

"Thank you."

Lu Mei still expressed thanks, her body turning transparent once more, leaving silently.

Revival? 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

Yang Yuan stood there pondering this question.

Can this half-finished game allow people to be revived?

Or even, could the real game created by the Game Government allow for revival?

However—

It might not even matter because Yan Chenggong died before the game was completed.

"Truly a passionate woman, but even if Yan Chenggong was alive, he might not appreciate her feelings."

He stopped thinking about it, turned, and left.

"Shashi Fortress, huh? Let’s go see, hopefully, I can find useful information there."

It was already the latter half of the night, and the sky was moonless but studded with stars.

Yang Yuan continued forward swiftly by striding kilometers with each step.

After traveling about a hundred miles, an Ancient Ruins stood before him.

The Ancient Ruins looked old, with many low, heavily weathered buildings inside.

Inside the Ancient Ruins, a clawed monster could be seen wandering aimlessly.

The monsters had humanoid bodies, with long, sharp, black claws, and blue liquid occasionally dripped from their bodies.

Every time the blue liquid dripped onto the ground, it sizzled with corrosion.

On their chests, blue light emitted, giving off a creepy vibe.

Yang Yuan sensed it from afar, realizing those monsters were only level fifty.

Not very strong, at least not threatening to him.

However—

Who knows if there are other traps within the Ancient Ruins?

Having been trapped in an Ancient Ruins for a time, he’s very cautious of them.

And who knows how big this Ancient Ruins is, trying to bypass it may easily cause a wrong direction, losing the way to Shashi Fortress.

"Huh? Someone’s inside?"

Suddenly, Yang Yuan noticed some people moving among the Ancient Ruins, hunting the monsters inside.

However, those monsters were strong, needing multiple people to manage to kill them.

Moreover, it’s not just an isolated instance; this kind of situation was happening in many places.

Yang Yuan saw some people coming out from a distance, quickly vanishing into the dark, indicating that the Ancient Ruins didn’t seem to have any Spatial Barrier-like things.
