Chapter 15: Everyday Life and the World
Three days have passed since the day of the separation from Fuyao. In the past three days, Zheng Ming ordered the clones to scatter to find out the surrounding situation, and at the same time began to recall the clones that had gone deep into the dense forest to converge on him. And it itself took Lucy and rode eastward.
Due to the faint connection with the clone, in Zheng Ming's mind, the light points representing the doppelganger were scattered in all directions, just like a dark curtain lit up with a light network composed of light points.
After receiving Fuyao's reminder, Zheng Ming carefully bypassed the areas where the points of light representing the doppelgangers disappeared for no reason, and did not step forward to check without dying. So I've been walking here without any danger.
Not long after they set off, they found a shade and rested under the tree.
Zheng Ming: "If only I were still a human being. We walk through the forest without worrying about our own safety. You don't know how good I was when I was a human. ”
Lucy: "Were you strong in your previous life?" ”
"Of course! I think back then, I carried a huge axe and cut all the way from the high ground of our home to each other's hometown. The back and forth slashed the time of resurrection three times, and the enemy ADC died four times! Along the way, the defense tower collapsed, and the minions and heroes on both sides died, which called a corpse all over the field. But I just get up and down with an axe, up and down with an axe, and up and down with an axe. I didn't blink once. ”
Zheng Ming, who was idle and bored, began to brag about his past life experience to Lucy again, but what Lucy didn't know was that what Zheng Ming said was actually just a scene in the game.
Hearing the tragic scene in Zheng Ming's mouth, Lucy first exclaimed in amazement, and then asked with a puzzled face.
Lucy: "... Hey? Then don't you have dry eyes? ”
Zheng Ming: "Huh? I mean, you're a funny little kitten. Am I talking about whether or not my eyes are dry? ”
Lucy crooked her cute little brain and pondered for a while, then said, "Oh... So are your eyes dry? ”
Looking at the other party's big eyes and a serious and curious simple appearance, Zheng Ming said angrily: "Don't do it." ”
Lucy: "Why? ”
Zheng Ming: "Because I'm crying." ”
Lucy: "Oh~, I'll just say it." Are the tears that come out because your eyes are too dry? ”
Under Lucy's repeated inquiries, Zheng Ming seemed to touch on a certain heart-wrenching memory. I saw tears streaming down its round face, and its tone gritted its teeth.
Zheng Ming: "No! It's because the heads were robbed by Pike's head dog, and I can't cut people with an axe! Woooooooo ”
Lucy: "Oh, I don't quite understand what you're talking about, though. But I can understand your feelings. I used to be robbed of catnip by my owner. Oh, stupid human! He thought I wouldn't find it if he hid catnip in his closet. Haha, funny, right? ”
Zheng Ming: "... ”
Thinking that in his previous life, he also liked to hide the cat master's canned food and mint in a high corner, Zheng Ming's face became even worse. Zheng Ming, who felt that he couldn't talk anymore, took the lead in getting up and said to Lucy, "Okay." I've rested long enough. Let's go, shall we? ”
Lucy: "But we're just starting to rest?" ”
Zheng Ming: "In the past two days, we have been like a tour of the mountains and rivers, where there is a little rush. I decided to speed up the march from now on. ”
Lucy: "Oh. All right. In fact, if you hadn't shouted tired after walking two steps, we would have been able to get out of this dense forest by this time. ”
Zheng Ming: "... What can I do? You have four legs, and I don't even have one. You still don't want to let you carry me. If you want to become a fish and walk the waterway, you just watch me drool. Do you think I want to go so slow? ”
Hearing Zheng Ming's words, Lucy laughed embarrassedly: "I don't mean to blame you, don't think about it." It turns out that you saw it, no wonder you didn't want to transform when you caught fish in the past two days. Then again, you look so beautiful when you become a fish. ”
Zheng Ming: "Excuse me." I still think it's good to be an ugly slime, at least you won't be worried about it, at least you don't have to worry about it. Let's go. On the way, you can tell me about the information about this world that Fuyao left you. ”
Lucy: "Oh, okay. ”
So Zheng Ming and Lucy left the shade of the tree not long after they arrived, and continued to set off east.
Along the way, with Lucy's narration, Zheng Ming's understanding of this world deepened a little. As Zheng Ming had expected before, this world could become stronger through cultivation. There are many different ways of practicing according to ethnicity and lineage, and the emphasis varies. However, in the final analysis, returning to the source can be boiled down to the two most basic and original energies. That is the spiritual power that forms the origin of all things in heaven and earth and produces spiritual spirituality, which is unique to intelligent species.
For example, the demon clan to which Lucy belongs, is to condense the demon qi and comprehend the world after cultivating into a human form, and both the spiritual power and the original qi will involve simultaneous cultivation. Another example is the demonic beasts with wisdom, they absorb Yuan Qi to condense their bloodlines, strengthen their physical bodies, and focus on the side of Yuan Qi. There are also mages like Merlin that Zheng Ming had seen before, they focused on spiritual power, borrowed the power of words and spirits to drive the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi, and cooperated with their own magic power to launch attacks.
Since each race has its own cultivation method, the cultivation system in this world is complicated, and it is extremely difficult for the realms between various systems to unify and merge. So everyone has been dividing the strong people of each race according to their ranks.
Until recently, there was a Terran powerhouse who even found Fuyao interesting, and he proposed that all the strong be divided into levels according to their strength, and his clan even built an arena system according to his proposal.
The arena in which this system runs has been highly regarded by all ethnic groups in recent days, and it is set up among various ethnic groups, and the division of the strong among them is even more likely to be conventional.
According to Lucy, there are various intelligent races in this world, which are divided into strong and weak according to whether the race has ever produced gods and whether there are gods to protect them. Among them, the orcs, beasts, demons and other races are among the best.
What made Zheng Ming unbelievable was that the Terrans who occupied the top of the food chain in their previous lives were in a weak position in this world because they had never produced gods, and most of the Terran races even became vassals of other races in order to survive. Even if Zheng Ming didn't see it with his own eyes, he could probably imagine it.
Zheng Ming: "Lucy." Did she give you an approximate distribution of forces in your neighborhood? ”
Lucy: "emm...... Let me think. It seems that after climbing another mountain, after leaving this forest of calamity, there will be the power of the human race if you go all the way to the southeast. They independently occupied a piece of territory. However, according to Fuyao, this Terran power is very strange. ”
Zheng Ming: "What's a weird method?" ”
Lucy: "I've never seen a human like them before, and that kind of spirit is like a human in another race. And the origin is unknown, as if it appeared out of nowhere. The things that appeared there were novelties that had never been seen anywhere else. ”
Zheng Ming: "Oh? Then we're going to have to take a look. ”
After receiving Lucy's description, Zheng Ming became more and more curious about this Terran power.
What kind of force can stand out from the impression of the poverty of the human race, and make Fuyao, who is a strong man of the demon race, call it powerful and eccentric, and even faintly jealous?
Zheng Ming looked at the overlapping mountains in front of him, and secretly sighed in his heart: "It's almost there." The day of seeing the same kind again. It's almost there. When we can get back to humanity ... ”
