Chapter 100: Historical Remnant and Sorcerer

"Am I… going to die…" Under the massive historical remnant, Chen Heng pressed his hand against his chest and thought to himself.
He was in a terrible state.
Using Life Ignition was incredibly bad for his body. Even if he was at his peak, it would greatly damage his body and cause him to fall into a bad state.
Chen Heng could feel his energy dissipating and his body gradually weakening.
He was going to die soon.
"Krudo, looks like our journey ends here." He turned around with great difficulty and gave a bitter smile.
Not too far away, Krudo's corpse was silently laying on the ground, completely lifeless.
Chen Heng sighed, but he was not too sad.
After all, everyone died sooner or later.
For a Knight like Krudo, dying in battle was better than dying slowly on a bed.
He was confident that Krudo would be quite satisfied with his end.
However, now…
Chen Heng forced his eyes open and used his remaining strength to stagger forwards.
The historical remnant in front of him was very strange and was hidden in a secretive and dangerous location.
There were ancient legends that this historical remnant was left behind by a sorcerer who had a mysterious power.
All who entered did not come out alive.
After Chen Heng and Krudo had entered, they discovered the guards here—they looked like puppet-like creatures.
These puppets were incredibly powerful, and each one of them could rival a Knight. The most powerful among them was close to even the strength of a Great Knight.
Killing these puppets used up almost all of Chen Heng's strength.
After this battle, even if nothing else happened, he would die just like Krudo.
However, before that, he still had some things to do.
"Sorcerer…" Chen Heng walked with great difficulty as he muttered, "let me see what the so-called sorcerers are like…"
Despite being a Great Knight, Chen Heng never forgot the name of this world.
This world was called the Sorcerer World.
Just from the name of this world, it seemed like the mainstream of this world were sorcerers.
This was why Chen Heng had headed here when he heard that this historical remnant was related to sorcerers.
After three simulations, which added up to over 100 years of experience, Chen Heng had finally found a trace about sorcerers. Perhaps he could truly understand this world's secret.
This kind of opportunity was quite rare, and Chen Heng definitely would not let it go.
If he missed this opportunity, even if he could enter a simulation again, he would not know when he could encounter something related to sorcerers again.
As he walked, Chen Heng thought about all kinds of things.
After killing the guards, he was able to walk into the historical remnant.
A faint light flashed out, illuminating the historical remnant.
What surprised Chen Heng was that within this historical remnant, there seemed to be an electric circuit system that was activated when he entered.
Faint white lights illuminated the entire historical remnant.
This scene made Chen Heng feel as if he was not in the Sorcerer World but in his modern society.
He soon came back to his senses.
"They have access to advanced technology?" Chen Heng thought to himself.
From the scene before him, the owner of this historical remnant evidently grasped much more advanced technology than outside.
From this, Chen Heng guessed that the Sorcerers were much more advanced and powerful than the humans of this continent.
As he thought to himself, Chen Heng continued onwards.
On the way, he was incredibly wary and careful.
His status was very bad, and let alone those puppets from before, even some ordinary warriors could kill him.
Of course, at this point, he did not care about life or death that much anymore.
It was just that before he died, he hoped to be able to gain something more.
It had been quite difficult for him to come to this historical remnant, and he did not want to die before he obtained anything.
As such, he was very cautious on the way, looking out for any traps.
Fortunately, it seemed that this historical remnant's only danger were the guards outside; on the inside, Chen Heng did not see anything dangerous.
Soon, he was able to successfully make it to the central area.
It was a sparse room, and at the center of the room, there was a faint black crystal ball. It looked just like an ordinary crystal ball, and there did not seem to be anything special about it.
"That's it?"
Looking at the crystal ball, Chen Heng instinctively frowned.
Before coming here, he had examined the other areas too.
It was a pity that perhaps it had been too long, but most of the things in here had already stopped working or had decayed.
This meant that Chen Heng did not gain much this whole way.
Of course, even if he did find anything, it would not be much use to him; after all, he was essentially a dead person. Even if he could obtain a Sorcerer's treasure, so what?
He just wanted to find something related to the secrets of Sorcerers in this historical remnant.
Who were they? Where did they come from? Where did they go?
What kind of history and civilization did they have? What kind of power did they have?
After knowing about the existence of Sorcerers, these questions appeared in Chen Heng's mind.
It was a pity that even though there were some books here, they had greatly decayed over time and were unreadable.
This was the final place that Chen Heng had not yet explored.
"This should be the center of the historical remnant…"
Chen Heng was breathing raggedly by the time he arrived here, "If there is anything important, it should be here."
Chen Heng thought to himself and continuously coughed a few times.
An unprecedented feeling of weakness and strengthlessness eclipsed his body.
After coming to this world and becoming a Knight, he had never felt so weak before.
Immense pain and feelings of weakness racked his body, making him feel incredibly uncomfortable.
If it was not for his incredibly strong willpower, he might have fallen already.
He slowly walked forwards to that crystal ball.
Standing there, he hesitated for a moment before picking up the crystal ball.
What surprised Chen Heng was that the moment he picked up the crystal ball, a unique feeling rose up.
It was like coming into contact with electricity, accompanied by violent pain.
