Chapter 4: The Otherworld
"Whew-"
Lu Kaifeng poured saliva and sighed with satisfaction, although there were no ingredients such as cumin, pepper, salt, honey sauce, etc., but there is a good saying, everything that people eat when they are hungry is fragrant. So when the meat was roasted, Lu Kaifeng stuffed the meat into his mouth whole piece. Ophelia also seemed to be hungry and ate some, but she didn't know how much better she ate than Lu Kaifeng, and she seemed to have been trained accordingly.
Well, it doesn't seem to be poisonous.
Lu Kaifeng was relieved. If Ophelia knew what he was thinking, she probably couldn't help but roll her eyes. I don't know if it's poisonous or not, dare to eat it? Any common sense?
By the way, the dagger brought by Ophelia was used to cut the meat, and Lu Kaifeng originally wanted to bury it with his soul... In addition, the water is also provided by Ophelia.
During the barbecue, there were other demonic beasts that followed the blood, but after recognizing that the pile of meat was the Atola Giant Bear, they all stayed away and did not continue to get closer.
Eat and drink enough, it's time to get some information. Either way, intelligence is always important, and with intelligence, it's easier to do anything, even in the game.
It's just that... How do you speak? You can't tell people, can you tell me some common sense? That's suspicious anyway. Suddenly, Lu Kaifeng had a flash of inspiration.
"Ophelia, can I ask some questions?" Lu Kaifeng turned his head sideways and sat upright on his back.
"Huh? OK. Ophelia nodded.
"Where is this?"
"Huh?" Ophelia was stunned, thinking that she didn't expect the other party to ask this. However, she quickly reacted, "This is the Anglis, and our location should be in the depths of the Anglis. ”
"The Angles?" Lu Kaifeng had never heard of this name, at least not in the game, and it was not clear if there was one on the earth or not.
"Yes, the Angles. There are many magical beasts inhabited here, some of them are very powerful, and the deeper you go, the stronger the magical beasts you encounter. Ordinary people dare not go deeper. ”
"Oh, in this way, how is the strength of that giant bear of Ya or something?"
"Upper-middle level, probably gold."
"Gold?"
"Hey, aren't you an adventurer? How could you not even know this? Ophelia rolled her eyes, what is the situation with this guy? Isn't there any common sense?
"Uh... That one... I... Probably amnesia. After a long time, Lu Kaifeng finally thought of this panacea-all-trades excuse. It seems that I learned the half-bucket water cliché technique of watching TV.
"Amnesia? Is there anything else you remember? ”
Lu Kaifeng spread his hands.
"Does the Slyer Sect know?"
Shake one’s head.
"Elves, dwarves, demons?"
Shake one’s head.
"What about the Adventurers' Guild and the Magic Guild?"
Shake one’s head.
Ophelia covered her face.
For the next period of time, Ophelia has been popularizing some basic knowledge to Lu Kaifeng, including this world, races, forces, and other common sense. After Ophelia finished speaking, Lu Kaifeng had a general impression of this place. To put it simply, it is similar to "Continent of the Gods", there are magicians and strong people, there are racial differences, it is almost an online game world, of course, except that there is no system, until now, Lu Kaifeng can't even see the shadow of the system. But Lu Kaifeng actually has a judgment in his heart: this is a real world. Holographic online games won't let you chop monsters to pieces...
"By the way, Ophelia is here to complete the mission?"
"Yes, some time ago, a huge dark element fluctuation erupted in the depths of the Anglis Mountains, and I came to investigate."
So he made it up?
Lu Kaifeng recalled the majestic energy that erupted from the soul burial at that time, and secretly rejoiced, if it weren't for this stubble, it is estimated that he would be wandering around the forest now.
"Alone?"
"It's not—" Ophelia's expression darkened a little.
Seeing that delicate face with that expression, Lu Kaifeng felt a sense of guilt in his heart.
Seeing that her mood was getting more and more depressed, Lu Kaifeng hurriedly changed the topic, "Then do you want to continue the investigation?" I guess I should know where. ”
"Huh? You know? ”
Of course, it's the parties after all.
"Well, I just remember that when I woke up, there was a huge energy fluctuation nearby. I went to see it out of curiosity. If you want, I can take you there, and I'll be in return for telling me so much. ”
"Hmm... Thank you. ”
"Let's go now, it's not very safe here." Lu Kaifeng glanced around, under the perception of the sword soul, there were already a lot of demonic beasts gathered around, and they were already a little restless. Although nothing is found to be a threat, it is better not to think that you are strong when you are not clear about anything, this is the experience of upgrading along the way.
I have to say that Sword Soul is really a convenient skill, in the past, in the game, the passive skill of Sword Soul can detect monsters within 30 meters for him, but now it is a real-time "projection" of every move around him to his heart, perfect control of the surrounding environment. And Lu Kaifeng feels that the range seems to be expandable, but now is not the time to experiment. When you're settled, it's better to be cautious for now.
Ophelia was also aware of the agitation around her, and she nodded, quickly gathered her things, and extinguished the fire. When Lu Kaifeng saw that she had finished cleaning up, he got up and walked towards the cave.
"It's right in here, but it's lighter..."
"Uhhh
Before Lu Kaifeng could finish speaking, a cluster of flames ignited in Ophelia's hands, and the flames suddenly filled the entire cave.
How can she do magic?
This had to surprise Lu Kaifeng, generally speaking, a person can only cultivate one route, either specializing in swordsmanship or the like, or specializing in magic, and it is difficult to do both. Ophelia's light armor and saber already show that she is practicing swordsmanship, and now she is casting magic.
I just don't know what the strength is, looking at her early fifteen or sixteen years, her behavior is not ordinary, if...
Lu Kaifeng silently calculated in his heart, it is always a good thing to have a backer. In other words, Ophelia really trusts him, and she is also an adult man, so she follows herself into the cave like this, isn't she afraid that he will plot against him? Was it because he saved her once?
In fact, Ophelia was wary of Lu Kaifeng at first, because Lu Kaifeng's appearance was like a demon with black hair and black eyes. However, when she woke up, she knew that the other party had saved her, and she didn't take advantage of the danger when she passed out. After talking to him, I also found that this person was more easy-going and easy to get along with, and he did not rely on his strength to be stronger than himself, but asked her for advice very usually and politely. In addition, the other party seems to have real amnesia, not like pretending. So the guard in my heart slowly let go.
The other party may be worthy of deep friendship, if it is not for the demons.
This is Ophelia's impression of Lu Kaifeng, don't look at her age now, but her mind is higher than her peers.
If Lu Kaifeng knew Ophelia's thoughts, he would probably sigh that this was a victory for the socialist youth in the new era.
Just after the two disappeared into the cave, the demonic beast that had been dormant for a long time finally couldn't bear it anymore and rushed towards the pile of meat pieces in unison.
