Chapter 958: A New Era
After aimlessly drifting in the Earth's orbit for hundreds of years, Zhang Cheng finally got tired of this behavior of waiting for the rabbit and decided to return to the surface to see if he could find any useful clues.
After all, although time is meaningless to him, he can't waste it like this.
Soon, he turned into a meteor and broke through the atmosphere at a rapid speed, heading towards a place on the North American continent called Rest.
You must know that the previous large-scale asteroid attack completely changed the geographical pattern of the original seven continents and four oceans on the earth.
The North American continent, in particular, was hit by a huge iron-nickel alloy asteroid and split directly into two from the middle, forming a large island like a string of pearls in the middle, with more than hundreds of large and small ones.
What is even more interesting is that in this land that once exalted "freedom" and "democracy", it actually degenerated back to the primitive feudal system, and even allowed the sale of slaves.
As the largest of the String of Pearls, Rester was named after its owner and built a city, four small towns, and more than three hundred villages on it.
Count Candita Rester is the current head of the Rester family, and is also the lord with the largest fleet and army in the archipelago, controlling 70% of the trade of the North American continent on the left and right, and can definitely be called the well-deserved overlord of the entire sea.
However, he now encountered a small problem, that is, his daughter actually ran away from home alone in order to escape marriage, and also robbed a small warship, and threatened to become a free pirate.
Oh, my God!
Is there anything more damning in the world?
No way!
I want to chase my daughter back no matter what!
Thinking of this, he immediately turned to his sturdy armor and commanded, "Bring a team of people and take Joanna back for me." But remember, don't hurt her, got it?"
"Understand, don't worry, I'll bring the young lady back in good condition. The strong man slapped his chest hard, turned around and disappeared at the end of the corridor without saying a word.
Seeing the figure of his subordinates gradually disappearing, Candita Rest sighed helplessly, and muttered to herself in a voice that only she could hear: "Since the Day of Doom came, the family has been rooted here for more than two hundred and seventy years, and I hope there will be no accidents in my generation." ”
......
At the same time, a girl with long fiery red hair who looked to be about eighteen years old was now wearing a short shirt and standing on a wooden sailboat that was growing too big to inspect the sea with a monocular.
After a full minute, she pointed to the fiery red trail in the distant sky and shouted, "Look! What is that?"
"Oh, my God! It must be a demon from hell. Miss Joanna, we'd better start turning around and leaving. A man who looked to be in his thirties was stunned and reassured.
"Bastard, how many times have I told you, don't add me Miss, call me Captain, Captain Joanna. Also, don't turn around, just rush over it, I want to see what it is. The young girl rolled her eyes angrily.
"Are you crazy, if Your Excellency Earl had known about this, he would have skinned me. The man couldn't help but shudder.
"Hmph! If you don't do what I command, I'll skin you right now. Stop talking nonsense, act fast, I think it must be a precious treasure. ”
"Hey, well, well, who made you the captain. ”
With a helpless sigh, the sailboat finally came to the sea where the fireball fell, put down the boat and began to look for what had fallen from the sky not long ago.
In a few moments, one of the sailors shouted at the top of his voice: "I've found it!
"People?"
Following the direction he pointed, Joanna quickly took out her binoculars, and sure enough, she found a naked man walking on the surface of the sea at a strange pace.
Before everyone could react to what was happening, the other party had already crossed a distance of at least a thousand meters in an instant, standing directly on the deck of the ship, staring at two eyes that exuded a piercing chill and patrolled around.
You don't need to ask to know that this is Zhang Cheng, who has just fallen from the earth's orbit.
"Who are you?" a five-size-fits-all sailor immediately drew his scimitar and assumed a fighting stance.
"Well, English? No, no, it's not English, it's not French, it's not German, it's not Spanish. Oh, I see, hundreds of years is enough time for a series of great changes in a language with the alphabet as the ontology, so this should be a completely new language. Zhang Cheng touched his chin and muttered to himself.
It has to be said that due to the fact that the elite class on the earth died almost overnight, it directly led to a significant regression in science and technology in the first hundred years, coupled with the rise of supernatural forces, and by the end of the second century, the level of human science and technology has degraded back to the Middle Ages.
But in their place are some more interesting magical technologies and civilizations.
As the saying goes, the evolution of human civilization from low to high is actually not a gradual and inevitable trend as many people think.
On the contrary, it was driven by countless contingencies that it developed a system of knowledge called natural science and materialism.
"Hey, boy, I'll ask you again!" said the stout sailor, apparently not satisfied with the fact that he had ignored him.
By directly reading and copying the memory, Zhang Cheng was able to obtain the language that was being spoken in the archipelago in the blink of an eye, and responded with a smile: "Are you talking to me?"
"Damn!
Sailor has not been a good profession since ancient times, especially in the age of sailing, and basically every sailor was a potential pirate.
So this guy who prides himself on being powerful picks up his scimitar and slashes at the thigh.
You don't have to ask to know that he didn't really plan to kill, but wanted to teach Zhang Cheng a lesson.
Next Second......
Rumble!
The poor creature was directly hit by a fireball the size of a basin, and the whole person soared into the air, and then slammed into the mast behind him, turning it all into charred carbide from top to bottom, and exuding a pungent smell.
Quiet!
Extremely quiet!
The sailors, who were originally noisy and shouting, suddenly looked like chickens stuck in the neck of the owner, and their eyes revealed a look of horror that was difficult to hide.
But Joanna's reaction was just the opposite, and she immediately ran to the front and asked excitedly: "Sir, you must be a powerful ability, aren't you? I solemnly invite you to join the pirate group! I believe that with your help, it will not be long before we can make a name for ourselves on this sea......
