Chapter 1175 The Mo Group in the Spring-autumn Era?

“Pow! Pow! Pow!”

These savage wooden puppets, which seemed to have been equipped with human consciousness, assaulted the people near them before everyone could react.

The crowd had just arrived.

Everyone was curious about everything inside, and they wanted to conduct the search alone in case others would snatch their treasures, so the group had separated from each other from the beginning.

It would have been much safer if they had gathered together.

As these people strayed away, the sole person left had to fight singly against several wooden puppets.

“Hmm?”

Unlike the others, Fang Qiu observed and deliberately avoided those wooden puppets, while making his way to the pavilions.

He didn’t sense any premonition of danger.

Fang Qiu only felt it was definitely not a good thing to have so many wooden puppets placed in such a mysterious place. Even if it were an ancient relic, the precious items here would be in the buildings instead of in these wooden puppets.

As a result, Fang Qiu didn’t pay too much attention to the wooden puppets. When these wooden puppets were activated, he was able to avoid their unexpected attacks.

Almost all the people around him were trapped by the wooden puppets.

Only then did the few wooden puppets beside Fang Qiu walk up to him.

He took a closer look.

These puppets were made precisely in the same forms as humans!

Each of them had a head with ears and eyes. There were even teeth in their mouths! Beyond these vivid facial features, the joints of their arms and feet were the same as that of humans. By combining this excellent craftmanship with modern technology, perfect copies of humans could be produced!

“The strength of these wooden puppets is considerably strong.”

When these artificial puppets came near, Fang Qiu found that several force leaders became a little flustered when they were besieged by three or four wooden puppets. They had a hard job fighting back though they eventually won.

“Bang!”

The wooden puppet who rushed toward Fang Qiu struck a hard blow to his face. Its movement was fast, and the angle of its attack was very strange. The puppet acted the same way as a human being, not mechanically at all.

Fang Qiu was startled.

“They’re made of wood! How could they be so true to form?”

Of course, Fang Qiu understood.

Their movements and postures were natural and smooth, and they could attack from various angles. It was a challenge to make those wooden puppets, but not impossible!

At the very least, he needed to plant dozens of gears in this wooden puppet’s arm. Beyond that, he would have to add many ingenious devices to the joints in the arms!

“How could these ancient experts be so intelligent to design a wooden puppet that looks and acts like a human?”

The more Fang Qiu thought about it, the more concerned he became.

These sophisticated methods were comparable to modern machinery manufacturing technologies.

It was unthinkable that these wooden puppets were made during ancient times!

This discovery struck fear in him.

Fang Qiu threw a punch, colliding violently with the hard fist of the puppet coming at him.

“Pa!”

There was a crisp sound.

Their fists smashed together.

Fang Qiu looked even more shocked.

In the collision, he felt the strength of this puppet was so immense that it was hard for him to accept the truth. Merely in terms of strength, this puppet was at least at ninth-class with one opened meridian!

No wonder the few leaders had to exert such strenuous efforts to repulse their attacks;

After all, the cultivators below the average level among this group that came with Fang Qiu had achieved the ninth class with two opened meridians. Not many people had reached the Half-step Guru Realm, and only five of them were at the Guru Realm.

“Damn it, why are these wooden puppets so strong?”

“They are all made of wood. How could they move so flexibly and have such strong powers?”

“This puppet looks very advanced. If there is a chance, we’d better take one back to study it carefully.”

“Even dummies made of wood can make skillful moves, which is something to be expected from items found in an ancient relic!”

“They are equipped with not only enormous strength but also incredible speed. In particular, these puppets fight in no systemized ways, simply meeting force with force!”

“Everyone, let’s not destroy them. We should make a thorough study of them. They’re of some research value.”

There were a lot of comments about these wooden puppets.

Fang Qiu also began to observe these wooden puppets carefully.

But…

The wooden puppet was made of wood from head to toe!

It was hard to tell even from close observation.

Fang Qiu was also very curious about how these wooden puppets could exert so much strength. If they just swung their arms mechanically to exude their power, it was impossible for them to release a great deal of force.

That was to say…

All these wooden puppets must have a source of power.

But…

The wooden puppet was not transparent, so he could not see what was hidden in its body. No matter how long he stared at it, it would be futile.

After observing for a long time, Fang Qiu found nothing useful. Thus, he immediately sped up and knocked the wooden puppet back with one palm.

Then, he turned to see the pavilion in front of him.

Among all the things falling from the sky, the whole interior of the pavilion was the only part that Fang Qiu couldn’t see with his naked eye, while everything outside could be seen clearly.

Now, Fang Qiu could rest assured that there was nothing else outside except these wooden puppets.

Then, there was only the pavilion left.

He was about to go in…

“Swish! Swish!”

Suddenly, two wooden puppets dashed toward Fang Qiu and dealt him twin blows as they blocked his way.

Fang Qiu made his move.

While fighting with them, he secretly shifted his position.

At the same time, he was also observing the others.

With a tacit mutual understanding, the others secretly supported him by concentrating on these wooden puppets during their fights. All of them began to study how these magical wooden puppets worked.

Seeing them like this, Fang Qiu cast a glance at the pavilion.

He found that he was the closest to it.

“Boom! Boom!”

He beat back the two wooden puppets by launching two palm strikes in a row. After that, Fang Qiu flashed aside and rushed straight off to the pavilion.

The sound of something rapidly dashing through the air could be heard.

It immediately attracted the attention of all the others.

Everyone looked over.

John Doe was rushing toward the pavilion at a dizzying speed. Almost at the same time, the rest shook off the wooden puppets beside them without hesitation and followed John Doe toward the pavilion.

They feared John Doe would collect all the good stuff if they were left behind.

As Fang Qiu rushed into the corridor on the first floor of the pavilion, he turned around and found that the puppets close behind him had stopped at the other end of the passage. Then they turned around and started to attack the others.

“Bravo.”

Fang Qiu burst out laughing.

Taking advantage of the time when the puppets ran to block the others, he quickly swept through the rooms of the pavilion.

But after going into three rooms at one go, he found nothing.

Each room was empty, and there was not even a speck of dust anywhere in the room.

Even the doors of some rooms were not closed.

Over at the site, the others also rushed into the pavilion and began to search.

In a short time, they finished scanning all the rooms in the pavilion, only to find that all the rooms were empty. There was nothing.

In this case, everyone was vastly disappointed, but had no choice but to return to the living room in the center of the pavilion. Its center door was wide open.

Fang Qiu was the first one to enter the living room.

He inspected the hall carefully, paying attention to the smallest details.

In his eyes, this hall was the same as the other rooms. There was nothing in it either, not even a chair for guests. It had nothing but bare walls.

There was only one solo item there.

It was a huge picture that hung on the innermost wall with the character “Mo”.

Fang Qiu took a closer look.

The painting was coated with a layer of dust.

The others also arrived at the scene.

“John Doe, you are so unkind, aren’t you? As a young man, don’t you know you should always give priority to seniors? How could you go ahead of us?”

“Alas, why are young people nowadays so insidious?”

They complained one after another.

They could have stayed outside a bit longer to study the puppets. However, after John Doe’s sudden dash, everyone was busy going after him the most important thing was that there was nothing in this pavilion. This trip was totally a waste of time.

However, Fang Qiu carelessly shrugged his shoulders and didn’t say anything.

He continued to observe the picture.

It was a very long and large one.

The size seemed to be specially designed for the prominent character.

The character “Mo” in the picture was well written, and there was a vigorous but graceful style to the calligraphy. Its strokes were not lightly or carelessly written. On the contrary, it appeared dignified and magnificent.

“Mo, Mo… wooden man, machine puppet…”

While looking at it, Fang Qiu was suddenly stunned.

“Could it be the Mo Group in the ancient spring-autumn era?”

Thinking of this…

Fang Qiu became more and more curious about this place.

If this place belonged to the Mo Group, how could there be nothing? Was it just a dwelling place abandoned by the Mo Group?

Beside him, after everyone took a good look, their eyebrows furrowed in frustration.

There was indeed nothing in the hall.

“It’s strange. How could this place be absolutely empty?”

“Is this the ancient relic?”

“Is there anything else that we haven’t yet discovered?”

“Impossible. There are so many wooden puppets outside, but there is nothing inside. Then what are those wooden puppets guarding?”

“Are those wooden puppets the most valuable treasures here?”

Everyone was very puzzled and curious.

This kind of situation was really mind-boggling!

Their questions reached Fang Qiu’s ears.

Seized by a sudden inspiration, he released his Divine Consciousness.

He scanned the surroundings with his Divine Consciousness.

Sure enough, he found something special.

While sensing everything with his strong Divine Consciousness, Fang Qiu felt that the Qi of Heaven and Earth in the whole area fluctuated a lot, and the most significant change happened in the center of the oasis lake on the side of the pavilion.

Clearly, no one noticed it.

Moreover, Fang Qiu knew everyone had used their spiritual force to investigate, but none of them seemed to have found anything unusual in the lake.

The most likely explanation was that their spiritual force was not strong enough.

With that thought in mind, Fang Qiu immediately withdrew his Divine Consciousness.

“What should I do to get rid of these people?”

Fang Qiu thought to himself.

“There’s nothing here. I’ll go and check the other rooms.”

After saying that, Fang Qiu left the hall and walked to the other rooms.

One after another, they followed suit and went to re-examine each room.

After another round of investigation, they still couldn’t find anything.

Everyone felt truly disappointed.

“Damn it, isn’t this place excessively barren?”

“There is indeed nothing here?”

“This desert region is far inferior to a tourist attraction!”

“Although nothing worthwhile can be found here, there is plenty of Qi of Heaven and Earth. Even if we can’t find any treasure, it’ll be nice for us to cultivate here.”

“Right, it helps increase the overall strength of each force.”

After exchanging some ideas, these old guys began to discuss how to cooperate with each other by taking this place as a new base.
