Chapter 56: The Night of the Ferry
"And how do you spend these days?" Jorim had lost his left arm since the first day, and it was hard to imagine how he had survived in his previous days. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
ā¦ā¦
"Where am I?"
It was so quiet, there was no wind, no dazzling sunlight, no sound of air moving, no strength in his body, fear made him gradually open his eyes, the high woods that could not see his head made his breath suffocate, and then the calmness that appeared in his brain was unprecedented.
"It must have been an earthquake, yes. Jorim found a shard of glass from under him, stained with some blood that had not yet coagulated, "Not my blood?"
The density and humidity of the surrounding air have changed dramatically, and the air conditions in the Eastern Hemisphere are definitely not like this, and now it can be concluded that they are not in the Eastern Hemisphere, and the surrounding area looks like some extremely primeval forest, but the primeval forest does not have such towering trees.
"The average height of these trees is about 200 meters, how can it be ......" Jorim visually measured the height of the trunk next to him, it is impossible for a tree of this height to exist, you must know that the world's tallest Australian almond eucalyptus is only one hundred and fifty-six meters!
"My school bag. Jorim stood up and moved his body, he didn't know how long he had been lying in this place, his limbs were a little numb, he bent down and picked up the bag, which contained a lot of things, and the moment he stretched out his hand, a black ring on the middle finger of his right hand caught his attention.
"Can't you take it off?" Hearing the news that the ring couldn't be taken off, Jorim hurriedly took out another instrument from his backpack, and at the same time turned on the computer and connected the data cable, "Let me see what this thing is." ā
The instrument was like a stapler, with a not-so-sharp scanner on the front, and Jorim clipped the two scanners to the ring one by one, and the data inside was gradually read on the screen, although it was a bunch of garbled characters, but in his opinion it was a treasure map.
"Such a complex encryption system, I don't know if my brother can crack it. Jorim kept trying to match the correct numbers and characters, and it was a long time before he broke through the ring's cryptographic defenses.
Ten minutes later, the auto-matching system finally found the right breakthrough, and during this time, Jorim also studied the world carefully.
First of all, the time on the phone is the opposite of what you see in front of you, which means that you have been asleep in this place for at least a day, because the date and time of the phone do not change with anything.
Secondly, this is not in any service area of the earth, and even GPS cannot be positioned normally, so I make a bold conclusion, what if I am now in another world outside the earth?
"Let's start invading. Jorim tapped quickly on the keyboard, his eyes catching important information on the screen at an unusually fast pace, and finally locked on to a string of characters shortly after, and from the ring he seemed to find something like a map, he intercepted the string of code, and after reading it, he searched for a weak signal source on the simulation software, and the signal source was the ring on his hand.
It was said to be a map, but it was pitch black all around, and only here were some points of light barely visible, it seemed that this was where he was now, and I don't know if the signal could be amplified to detect the surrounding environment.
Jorim tried to adjust the ring's signal source to the maximum, and the screen gradually relaxed, sure enough, this worked, there are still many weak signal sources scattered in different places in this world, they are quietly staying in the distance, it seems that they are the only ones who have woken up.
"Huh?" Zooming in on the map, Jorim found a clearing at the center of these faint sources, and there must be some reason why people were scattered in this place, probably going there to gather after waking up.
"It seems necessary to move. Jorim packed up his computer, and as he was packing up his equipment, there was a sudden commotion in the grass not far away, and he quickly stopped what he was doing, and cautiously crouched behind the trunk of the tree and stared over there.
The map just now didn't indicate that there were other signal sources around him, if the people who came to this world were assigned a similar ring, then they must all have fluctuations, right, what is in that grass now?
"Damn it......" The grass was quiet again, and Jorim couldn't let go at all, he could feel a sharp gaze around him, and even if he didn't see those eyes, it seemed like it was right behind him!
A minute passed, and Jorim still didn't dare to move, he knew that he must be targeted, whether it was a man or a beast, and when there was no one around, he would either fight or die.
A stick at his feet gave Jorim the idea of a fight, and he tried to make his movements look slower, reaching out and touching the edge of the stick. I don't know if I sensed his killing intent, and a monster with a pitch-black body rushed out of the grass! That thing was about the size of a person, with red eyes and fangs, and an extremely hideous appearance!
Jorim was so frightened that his body froze for a full second before he could react, and by this time the monster had already stabbed into his left arm with its dagger-like fangs!
"Ahhh
The pain quickly spread to his brain, and Jorim kept trying to break free from the bloody mouth, but then he realized that if he pulled hard, he would probably pull his left arm off directly!
Blood splattered on the backpack, and Jorim could faintly hear the bones of his left arm shattering under the bite of his teeth!
"Uhhh
The stick in his right hand struck the monster's head hard, but it was completely defended by its solid exoskeleton, and the pain made him use his strength to the limit, and the three-finger-thick stick broke in two with just one blow! Seeing this, Jorim stabbed a piece of the broken wooden thorn into the monster's left eye!
"Whew!"
The sudden pain and blindness of one eye made the monster go crazy in an instant, and it tore hard at Jorim's left arm that was biting in its mouth, only to hear a "bang", and blood splattered! Jorim, who had never suffered so much, curled up on the ground and shivered, his heartbeat had reached the limit, and his vision became red, and the arm lay in the grass like this, and the monster panicked and picked up the backpack stained with Jorim's blood and fled into the distance, probably thinking that those familiar blood stains were prey.
"Hmm......" Jorim crawled on the ground for some distance, thinking about going to the clearing he had just seen on the computer to join the others, but he was very aware of his current situation, and the blood he had just lost was not enough for him to get there alive.
"That's it...... Dead here......"
Consciousness faded away, breathing weakened, and the heart, which had been beating violently before, was now extremely calm.
It was the ferryman of death who greeted new souls.
"Whew-"
At some point, the wind blowing in my ears reawakened the sleeping consciousness, and the numbness caused by the pain made the brain realize that its owner was still alive, and it slowly awakened the nerves of the whole body, as well as the work of all organs.
"It's ridiculous...... Jorim couldn't feel the presence of his left arm, so he had to support the ground with his right hand and barely lean against the tree next to him, where the pain didn't seem to be so obvious, and the feeling of suffocation before losing consciousness disappeared, "Do you want to continue torturing me again......
It was already dark, the surrounding woods were pitch black, the road under his feet was extremely tortuous, and after falling in the darkness at least dozens of times, he finally dragged this embarrassed body to the edge of the clearing, he had no time to marvel at the incredible subtlety of this double forest, just counting the number of people gathered there.
"Twenty-one people, where did the rest go?" Jorim remembered the source of the signal he saw on the computer, it should be about forty people, which means that all the students of the first grade A class of Sakura Hailan have come here, it is impossible to stay in the open space and wait for rescue, only by keeping walking can he survive, he must follow the students who have left here to leave this world alive.
"What are these memories?" Jorim found that during his coma for a while, there seemed to be some non-existent memories in his brain, which was the first communication of the gods, and it was retained in the brain by obsidian.
"It's really a wayward god who let us fight and survive in this world, and actually only gave us such a thing. ā
Without further ado, Jorim observed a puddle of blood behind the students in the clearing, and there must have been some quarrel in that place, perhaps because the two teams had diverged, so that the probability of that team moving towards the side with blood would be much higher.
"School uniform?" There is an abandoned school uniform jacket at the edge of the second layer of forest, although I don't know whose it is, but now Jorim can't wear it anymore, since no one wants it, give it to himself.
Changing into a new coat, Jorim walked in the direction of the bloodstain, if this forest had a second and first layer interface, then they would definitely go to the next place where the Heavenly Tree was.
During these days, Jorim had eaten leaves and dirt to survive, and before he was able to hunt, the best food he had ever eaten was some berries that grew on trees, and it was difficult to climb trees with only one arm, and he had fallen from them countless times, and finally grabbed one or two berries and stuffed them into his mouth, and the juice and flesh exploded in his mouth.
"These are ......" When Jorim burst into tears because he ate the first berry, his right hand suddenly condensed a lot of black crystals, and he had already discovered the map in the obsidian, but he didn't expect this thing to be able to create a weapon of his own!
