Chapter 38: Fully Mirrored Map

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Looking at the map in front of him, Liao Fan fell into deep thought.

He had a determined expression on his face.

Liao Fan looked out of the window.

The fog was really filled with mysteries.

If he wanted to discover the truth, he needed to thoroughly explore this world.

Liao Fan picked up a pen that was made of a sharpened black crystal block.

He sat down and continued to study the map.

Meng Fei’s map and his own map were drawn based on the same scale.

As for the marks, they were personalized.

Liao Fan turned Meng Fei’s map upside down.

His eyes widened.

‘It’s the same!

‘This map is exactly the same as mine!’

If this map was not fake, then there was only one conclusion.

They were in the same area.

The Ruins was situated just opposite the river!

Without wasting any time, Liao Fan calculated the width of the river.

‘Seventy-five foot!’

A river of this side was not considered wide.

One could even swim across.

However, Liao Fan had no plans of doing that. 

He did not exactly know what was in the river.

At the same time, he did not know the length of the river, so it was almost impossible to go around it.

If the river was too long, he might encounter an unfavorable situation along the way.

The compass might save him from getting lost, but not from an accident.

Liao Fan could build a boat instead.

However, it required a lot of materials.

[ Wood *50 + resin *50 + alloy metal *10 = Boat. You can try to drift in the river if you have the skills. ]

It was not worth it.

Moreover, he did not have any alloy metals.

Meng Fei previously mentioned that he had also marked the location of his territory on the map.

His territory was not far from the river and the layout of their environments was almost the same.

In other words, they were on both sides of the river. 

That was why the map provided by Meng Fei was a mirror match.

‘A Ruins might be on my side as well.’

According to the map, the Ruins should be about two and a half miles away from Meng Fei’s territory.

It would take about twenty minutes on foot!

The distance was not very far.

However, if Liao Fan could not find anything useful in the Ruins, it would become a waste of time.

He took a deep breath and thought about this for a long time.

In the end, he decided to search for the Ruins in his own area.

Even if he could not discover it, at least his exploration area would increase.

Two and a half miles should equal about ten percent of the area.

This idea was not too bad.

Moreover, Liao Fan did not have the materials to make a boat.

Regardless, he still needed to make sufficient preparations. 

This will be his first time entering the Ruins.

Who knows what he would find in there.

‘I hope there are a lot of treasure chests.’.

In total, Liao Fan had discovered two treasure chests. 

One was made of wood and the other was a silver chest.

Both treasure chests had given him items of great value. 

For the sake of treasure chests, the Ruins was a place worth exploring.

Liao Fan held the stone die in his hand.

All six of its sides were all filled with mysterious characters.

There might be a hidden message in these characters but he could not decipher it. 

The system did not help to translate them either.

Liao Fan glanced at the remaining materials in his inventory.

[ Water: 5 liters. ]

They were stored in five bottles made of rubber. 

[ A Box Of Bread. ]

This bread was enough to feed them for more than ten days.

There was no need to worry about stockpiling food.

Next, there was combat power.

The second villager had become very strong ever since he evolved into a ‘Super Alloy Shield Soldier’.

He could actually face multiple wild boars head-on.

If Liao Fan did not have the protection of the second villager when they were retreating, he would probably be long dead.

In comparison, the first villager was much weaker.

Liao Fan did not plan to bring the first villager with him for his exploration tomorrow.

There was a stone mine near his territory. 

He wanted the first villager to mine for stones, catch some fish, and grow vegetables.

There were also a lot of leftover torches.

It was enough to keep the first villager safe.

As for himself, Liao Fan did not need torches.

He had the tri-colored light platform. 

The fog would not be able to harm him.

All these factors gave Liao Fan the courage and confidence to go out and explore.
