Chapter 28: The Fantasy Forest
In the afternoon, following Olivia to the archaeological association to check the corpse did not affect Zhu Jue's actions in the evening.
On the one hand, it will take some time for the full examination report of the corpse to come out, so he did not stay in the affiliated organization for a long time, and on the other hand, Zhu Jue is not a member of the Archaeological Association after all, and the fact that the affiliated organization can rely on Olivia's certificate to get in does not mean that he can enter the Archaeological Association.
Olivia herself didn't expect Zhu Jue to find out the cause of death and the secret behind the corpse at a glance, she specially came to Zhu Jue to let him participate in the mission in this way, know some information in advance, and save her eyes from being blackened at that time.
Therefore, after seeing the corpse, Zhu Jue separated from Olivia, took a taxi back home alone, and began to prepare for the trip to the dream world.
said that it was preparation, but in fact, it was to look up some questions on the Internet such as "what should I do when I cross into another world", "what to pay attention to when going to the Middle Ages" and so on, but Zhu Jue soon found that these were useless, so he naturally returned to rest and entertainment.
Waited until the appointed time late at night, Zhu Jue changed his clothes, put the three-day moon knife into a brown burlap bag and hung it behind him, walked around twice in front of the mirror, and the leather boots stepped on the floor to make a "da-da~" sound.
The costumes specially prepared for the drama were naturally designed to highlight the temperament and figure of the performers to the greatest extent, and now Zhu Jue wore them on his body, if he were not still holding a bag of potato chips and a mobile phone in his hand, the image of a young warrior in the Middle Ages was undoubtedly just right.
The phone screen lit up, and the message box from the gentleman popped up.
Zhu Jue brushed the black hair that had been cut in advance, picked up the Three Days Moon Taidao and the triangular pillar storage box sent by the gentleman before, and carried the wind chimes on his shoulders to open the door.
Two strong men in black suits were standing at the door, and as soon as Zhu Jue opened the door, the person on the left took out a detector-like thing and began to scan Zhu Jue's whole body, and the person on the right handed over a full-cover VR glasses.
This is something that the gentleman brought up in last night's meeting, and since the space door needs to be kept absolutely private, any traveler must be picked up by a special car, and all electronic devices must be removed while covering their eyes to prevent travelers from writing down the path.
Zhu Jue himself was not prepared to secretly note down the location of the space door, and naturally he didn't care about the inspection of these people, and when the wind chimes were also scanned to confirm that he did not carry any items such as miniature cameras, Zhu Jue was sent into the empty boat.
I have to say that these people's secrecy is quite in place, and the VR glasses even deliberately play popular music videos, not only the eyesight, but also the surrounding sound is completely blocked.
I don't know how long it took, Zhu Jue felt that the airboat had stopped running and stopped at a certain place, and at this time, the video was no longer playing in the VR glasses, but turned into a road guidance program, telling him how to go without letting him see any surrounding scenery.
The triangular column storage box in his hand was taken away halfway, which was also part of the process.
According to the gentleman, there may be some accidents when passing through the space gate, and it is best not to carry scattered items on your body, otherwise it is easy to fall into the space passage, so everyone who wants to carry into the dream world or the things obtained in the dream world will be put into the triangular column storage box in advance when entering and exiting, and the gold bank will provide special teleportation of these items for everyone.
Zhu Jue stored the things before the wild boar in it, and as for the Three Days Moon Taidao, he still held it in his hand.
After about a few minutes, Zhu Jue could feel himself standing on the lifting platform, and then the ambient temperature around him began to drop, apparently sinking underground......
"It's time to take off your glasses. ”
A gentleman's voice came from his ears, Zhu Jue raised his hand to take off the VR glasses, the light here was very dim, and the human instinct made Zhu Jue subconsciously look for a nearby light source, so he saw a gray cold and hard metal door embedded in the stone wall in front of him, and the only decoration was the password pad at the handle position.
Suddenly, looking back, the road was also a closed iron gate, completely covering everything behind.
Zhu Jue tightened the Three Days Moon Taidao in his hand and looked around.
The gentleman, the black swan and the others have all arrived, and they are near Zhu Jue at this moment, and the place where they are located is like an underground karst cave somewhere, except for the two metal doors in front and back, there are some uneven stone walls around it.
"Show me the gold voucher. ”
The sudden sound of a mechanical prompt in the silent environment made Zhu Jue subconsciously cast his eyes on the metal door in front of him, and the gentleman stepped forward at this time, with his back to everyone, as if he had taken something out of his arms, but he couldn't see it clearly because of the obscuration of his body.
With the sound of "click", the metal door opened back, the black swan and others leaned forward, and Zhu Jue also followed suit.
Through the gap between the people in front of him, Zhu Jue saw that there were no imaginary underground ruins or anything else behind the metal door, it was still a cave.
What about the space door?
Zhu Jue's gaze swept around the cave, and he didn't see any special existence, but the black swan and the others had already begun to walk towards the mountain wall in front of them.
It's as if there's a passage to a dreamscape ahead.
And so it is!
Donald watched them disappear one by one into the stone wall, and somehow remembered the non-existent platform of the Nine and Three-Quarters......
"Walk over?"
After taking a few steps forward, Donald looked at the rock wall that was no different from the surrounding area, and looked at the gentleman next to him in surprise.
"That's right, just walk over there. ”
The gentleman didn't choose to be the first to go in order to wait for Zhu Jue, who walked at the end of the line, and then said,
"Mr. Wind Chimes, do you remember our previous deal?"
"Of course, you found the other party?"
Holding the wind chimes from his shoulders into his arms, Zhu Jue prepared in his heart.
"The garden pool in the east of Neil City, the other party will appear nearby at 12 o'clock at noon, I don't know the specific appearance, you need to distinguish it yourself, I look forward to your reply, see you in another world!"
Given the time and place, the gentleman disappeared directly in front of the rock wall without waiting for Zhu Jue's response.
The cave that had been popular before fell silent again, only the simple wall lamps embedded in the surroundings emitted a faint light, and Zhu Jue looked back at the world again.
Strictly speaking, this world was originally a world that had been crossed over, but he never thought that he would have the time to cross again.
There is no sense of absurdity in the accident, but there is something ...... Excited!
"Wind chimes, let's !!"
Holding the wind chime in his left hand, he carried the Three Days Moon Tai Knife on his shoulder with his right hand, and stepped forward with his feet raised.
When the body completely submerged into the rock wall, Zhu Jue's mind immediately became a little dizzy, followed by a strange sense of penetration.
Some of them are like swimming in a state where the body is in constant contact with the surface of the water and is separated.
However, this feeling did not last long, just when Zhu Jue silently counted to "3", the wings of his nose twitched involuntarily because he smelled the scent of grass and trees. Although Zhu Jue kept his eyes open in order to see the whole process of crossing clearly, the moment he passed through the space door, he still had the feeling that he had blinked just now.
The gentleman had told him that the environment of the dream world was somewhat like the European Middle Ages, so Zhu Jue thought he would appear in the basement of a simple house or in a cave.
However, the strange sight that appeared in front of him at this moment was rushing to break into his field of vision:
This is a forest, a forest that is different from the earth, so dense that it seems to have been enchanted, and when you are here, you can feel your soul cheering just by taking a deep breath!
Countless majestic and tall oak trees twisted and coiled around, weaving the thick branches that he groped outward, and Zhu Jue even felt that he could use those tangled branches as aerial tracks in Dawning City, and even if he ran along it, he would not have any problems.
And the wind chime had already done it when Zhu Jue thought so, and when it came to this forest for a long time, it jumped up a few meters high branches along the trunk of the tree beside it and jumped back and forth between them, making a cheerful snoring sound from time to time.
At this moment, Zhu Jue was also attracted by the scene in front of him, several light blue phosphorescence just emerged from the top of a strange-looking fungus umbrella that was about the same height as him, and they fluttered towards the sky, mixing with the surrounding patches of light generated by different forms of fungi into one after another haunting the light bands in this jungle, barely lighting up this area, showing part of their appearance in front of his eyes.
The world seems to be in the middle of the night, and its lighting depends entirely on the phosphorescent light released by the fungi that grow in the humus of the jungle floor...... The only unpleasant thing is that although these phosphorescences are large-scale existences, they do not give people a dreamlike sense of fairyland, but instead show more and more the darkness of the forest, and those areas that are not illuminated by phosphorescent light always make people feel inexplicably ominous and obscure.
"Mr. Wind Chimes, please hurry up and get your things, we must hurry up, and before it gets light, we are going to visit some special creatures that inhabit this forest!"
The gentleman noticed Zhu Jue's indulgence, and so did he when every newcomer came to this world, so he reminded him loudly.
"Visiting special creatures?"
Zhu Jue asked as he looked at a few people who were fetching things around the root of an oak tree.
"That's right, this is the Enchanted Forest, and the wine I gave you at the beginning came from a group of mysterious creatures that live here, and it is not easy to exchange those things from their hands, and there are some precautions in the process, I will tell you more about it later on the way. ”
As the gentleman spoke, AK was already carrying several skewers of sausages on his shoulders, and it was clear that there was something to be paid to make friends with those guys.
