Chapter 21: A Wonderful Experience
"Eh!!!Why are you dreaming again?!" Li Jinyi opened his heavy eyes and found himself once again in the magnificent garden he dreamed of during his nap.
Wait! What's going on with this inexplicable realism? Not last time!
He twisted his thigh.
Hey~Pain!This is not a dream, or this is not an ordinary dream, it may also be some kind of illusion, or it has been poisoned by ecstasy, and there is no distinction between reality and fiction.
Damn! I've been encountering strange things since I put that magic sword on the table, and I don't admit it when I ask it.
But now is not the time to complain, Li Jinyi touched his chin and fell into thought, since there is no way to know whether this place is real, it is better to treat it as real, so as not to lose his life without warning.
By the way, speaking of life......
Li Jinyi rolled up the sleeve of his left hand and breathed a long sigh of relief when he saw an arm with a healthy complexion.
"The Star Soul Crystal Therapy seems to be quite effective, but I am definitely not the only one who has been poisoned by the Void Tide, and I have to report this antidote method to Master as soon as I go back. ”
Li Jinyi seemed to think of something again, and nodded thoughtfully and said:
"So it seems that the man who summoned me to this place should have no ill will. All kinds of behavior seemed to be some kind of warning to me. ”
"Then what's the purpose of summoning me here this time? If it's just a warning, wouldn't it be okay to have a dream like last time?"
"Could it be that there is something that has to be done here?"
Li Jinyi stood up and looked around, and found that the golden auspicious clouds that had been shrouded around the garden had faded into the distance, and four majestic palaces pointing to the stars were revealed.
The person who teleported me over wouldn't be there, it didn't look like a place where friendly people lived, Li Jinyi's palms were so nervous that he was oozing fine sweat.
There is an extra fountain in the center of the garden than last time, and the water curtain is intertwined with light and shadow, bringing a sense of crowding out of thin air.
Lai Jinyi was curious about this, and slowly approached the fountain as if walking on thin ice, and his breathing became cautious.
Upon closer inspection, the fountain water curtain revealed an image of an army composed of different alien races, all of whom had dark purple pupils, and it was clear that they were cosmic traitors who had submitted to the rule of the Void.
In the picture, combat drawings depicting the appearance of human beings and the terrain of the earth can be seen everywhere, and the camera zooms out, and the entire school field, the entire plain, the entire continent, and even the entire planet, are full of all kinds of cosmic betrayers, and from time to time there are ships from other galaxies gathering here.
The camera zoomed out farther and farther away, and a star map appeared, in which the planets and the Earth of the betrayers were identified, and the distance between the two was only two light years.
According to the average technological level of aliens, the distance of two light years will only take a year at most to reach, even if one year is added to the assembly time, within two years, the Star Alliance and the Star Intermediary should not have time to clear the remaining void creatures on the earth, and when the time comes, I am afraid that they will be defeated.
Reinforcements, need reinforcements!Where can I find them......
Li Jinyi's afterglow inadvertently swept over the palace in the distance.
Maybe there's one there?
The four palaces were divided in four directions, and the landscape behind the palace was cut off by golden auspicious clouds.
Crossing a stone bridge over a dry stream and ascending stairs carved with unknown motifs, we came to a plaza with a garden at each end, and the flower beds and fences were made of ordinary stone, far less colorful than the central garden.
There was a pedestal for a statue in the center of the square, but it was only a pedestal, and the statue on it was nowhere to go. When Li Jinyi passed by this place, his eyes rolled and he picked up a stone next to him and put it in his pocket.
At the end of the square was the shorter palace, which was only shorter than the other three, but it was actually more than 100 meters high and covered with verdant vines.
I don't know if the door of the palace was removed or if it wasn't there at all, Li Jinyi tiptoed to the arched entrance five meters wide and ten meters high, poked his head out and looked inside.
The light blue floor tiles emitted a little fluorescence, and in the center of the hall, there was a vertical floating disc in the air, about three meters in diameter, and Li Jinyi could only see one side of the disc from the door, which was brass-colored, and there were many humanoid patterns carved on it.
"Is anyone inside, excuse me~" Li Jinyi plucked up his courage and shouted towards the hall.
More than a dozen seconds passed, and no response came.
"Can I come in and sit down?If I don't speak, it means that I will acquiesce~" After speaking, he took two steps back tremblingly.
This time I waited for more than a minute, but there was still no response.
There shouldn't be anyone inside, right? Li Jinyi was bold, folded his hands, bowed his head slightly, and walked into the palace hall with a pious attitude, his eyes constantly glancing left and right.
You can see that there are many strange props placed in the open second floor of the palace, such as clothes woven from red animal hair, specimens of long-legged strange eggs, non-earth craft firearms with the barrel of guns blocked by unknown plants, and old books framed with fangs......
It's really a unique collector's habit, Li Jinyi muttered to himself.
Step by step, as I approached the disc in the middle of the air, the faint harmonic sound from it began to ring in my ears.
"It's a moving device, but it looks like a normal metal disc, huh? Is there something on the other side?"
Li Jinyi began to walk around the base under the disk, and before he had taken a few steps, a transparent step of energy condensed suddenly appeared on the ground in front of him, and after a while, more steps were formed step by step, spiraling upwards until the back of the disk.
"Are you asking me to walk up?" Li Jinyi sniffed, excited and nervous inside, and stepped up the steps with a slight tremor in his legs.
As the steps climbed, the situation on the back of the disc came into view.
It was an image of a planet, and it was obvious from the appearance that it was not the earth, and Li Jinyi came to the image and tentatively touched it with his finger, and the picture moved a little with his touch.
"Huh, touch screen?" Li Jinyi suddenly became interested, put two fingers on the image of the planet, and then pulled them to the sides.
The picture then descends on the planet in the middle of the sky, and the vision is a desolate field, and Li Jinyi swipes the "screen" to see villages, cities, a kind of alien with a long tail, and an alien with four fingers.
Wow~ These people may be able to become our reinforcements!
Lai Jinyi looked intently at the planet, and he found that it had only one landmass, and it was divided between the north and the south. The "long tail" and "four fingers" of the south coexist peacefully, and it is a scene of peace and happiness. The north is mainly occupied by the "four fingers", and the "long tail" is mostly reduced to prisoners or slaves. At the junction of the two countries, a tragic war is being waged.
Seeing this, Li Jinyi had already roughly guessed the grievances and hatreds between these two countries.
"This planet was probably originally ruled by a slave state established by the aliens of the Four Fingers, and the status of the Long Tail was generally low, and then some of the free souls of the Long Tail awakened, rebelled against the brutal rule of the Four Fingers, and established an equal southern kingdom. Li Jinyi paused, and his heart fluctuated, "These people who yearn for freedom and are jealous and hateful should lend a helping hand to us." ”
He swiped the screen to see what kind of person the leader of the long tail was, and accidentally noticed an hourglass embedded in the bottom border of the disc, and most of the fine sand on the top of the hourglass had fallen underneath.
"Hmm? What does this hourglass mean? Does it mean the time I can use the disk, or is it the countdown to the time I'm teleported back to Earth?"
In any case, it must be hurried, Li Jinyi first slid the picture to the most prosperous city in the south, the voice of the people on the street came to his ears, he was surprised to realize that he could understand these words, it should be some kind of magic effect of this disk, the owner of this palace must be an inscrutable mage and observer.
Lai glanced at the bulletin board on the corner and found that even the words on it that he had never seen before could be understood.
"This is amazing!" he exclaimed.
In the picture, the two long tails in front of the bulletin board suddenly looked at each other, and one of them said:
"Did you just yell, 'This is amazing?'"
Another shook his head and said, "I thought you said that?"
The two looked around, their eyes full of confusion.
Seeing this, Li Jinyi quickly covered his mouth, hell! This thing can still transmit my own voice! And it's a processed simultaneous interpretation version!
With his heart pounding, Lai closed his eyes to keep himself calm.
In the middle of a breath, a grand plan came to mind.
He opened his eyes again, read the bulletin board, and learned that the king's daughter had been kidnapped to the north, and that the king of the south was preparing to fight to the death against the slave empires of the north.
"If only he knew where his daughter was. Li Jinyi said to himself.
As soon as the words fell, the screen changed abruptly, and she came to a room tightly held by the "Four Fingers" guards, and in the room sat a long-tailed girl who looked like a human teenager, with a somewhat depressed expression and no obvious scars on her body.
Li Jinyi was stunned by the power of this disk, and praised the designer of this disk in his heart.
He moved the scene to the right ear of the long-tailed girl and whispered:
"Girl, girl. ”
Although this is a bit offensive, it is also a helpless act to prevent being detected by the guards outside the door.
The girl shrank to the left in fright, and Li Jinyi hurriedly reassured: "Don't be afraid, I'm here to help you." ”
"But in order to prevent the enemy from using disguise to take your place, I need to check with you the secret between you and your father, or a little secret that only the two of you know. As soon as Li Jinyi finished speaking, he regretted a little, and after saying two words, he began to ask the code, is it a little too hasty? Can others believe in themselves? It should be close to the same again, and before coming, he actually forgot to ask passers-by for the name of this princess, what a failure!
Li Jinyi was still frantically blaming herself in front of the disc, but she didn't know that what was interpreted into the girl's ears by the simultaneous voice was a pure southern mainland accent, and the northern "four fingers" could not imitate this point, and a strong sense of intimacy filled her body, making her open her heart instantly.
"I made a promise with my father that on my eighteenth birthday, he would take me to climb the highest peak in the south, the Ridge of Freedom. ”
Li Jinyi was stunned, this girl was so upright, but after thinking about it, she was kidnapped by the enemy, she was in a foreign country, and it was reasonable that she would subconsciously let down her guard when she heard that someone was coming to the rescue.
"Very well, girl, don't worry, you will soon be able to see your father. The Northern Slave Empire would also cease to exist. After coming back to his senses, Li Jinyi replied earnestly.
"Really!?" Princess Longtail stood up excitedly, her chair knocked over to the ground.
"Shh~~! You have to pretend that nothing happened. Li Jinyi reminded.
The princess covered her mouth in horror and nodded, then picked up the overturned chair.
"Goodbye. Li Jinyi then moved the camera to the outskirts of no man's land and said to the disc, "Please go to the position of the king of the south." ”
The scene changes abruptly to the lounge at the top of a giant ship, where a muscular man with a long tail is lying in a royal rocking chair with a bleak face, and it seems that the pain of losing his daughter has hit him hard.
Li Jinyi checked the documents on the table and confirmed the person's name.
"Shardas. In the lounge, Li Jinyi's pretended deep voice sounded.
"Who!?" the King of the South immediately stood up and looked around warily.
"People who bring opportunities. ”
"Opportunity, huh, where to start?" said Shardas reached for the gun on his waist.
"A deal. ”
"Oh, trading, I like trading, talk about conditions. Shaldas replied, gun in hand, aiming at all corners of the room.
"I will lead you to crush the tyrannical rule of the northern slave kingdom and rescue your daughter, and at the price that you must submit to me. ”
Shaldas burst out laughing.
"You're very powerful, aren't you? Who knows what kind of sorcerer you are? I want me to believe you? Is it possible?" he said suddenly, solemnly, walked over to the console, activated the magic shielding device, and said proudly, "Your voice can't come in now." ”
"That's a shame, it looks like your daughter's eighteenth birthday plan to climb the Ridge of Liberty with you has come to naught. The voice did not diminish in the slightest.
Shaldas's movements froze suddenly, and it took a while for him to speak, "She's still alive?!What do you want me to do?"
"Stand still and wait for orders. ”
After speaking, Li Jinyi glanced at the hourglass on the frame of the disc, and the last grain of fine sand happened to slip off. The next moment, his vision was immediately filled with darkness, and intense tiredness came over him......
When he opened his eyes, he had already returned to his living room, and Li Jinyi checked his arm again, and the dark lines had indeed disappeared. Then he opened his coat pocket and looked in, where the stone he had picked up by the base of the statue lay quietly,
