To be honest, when I finally left the vicinity of Tilis's house, listening to her final goodbye words, countless questions popped into my mind, and I always wanted to ask, but I never had the opportunity to ask, because we had already been kicked out by Tilis.

I casually waved my rattan whip to chase away the ants, one hand propped up my chin, and carefully analyzed Tiris's parting words.

Although I am very reluctant to believe that we have crossed over, it seems that all the facts are telling me, and I can't help but believe it.

Before parting, what I saw and heard on this day and night could barely bear it with my ability to have three views, after all, I had been escaping from reality and trying to explain these situations with 'science', but after parting, my three views completely collapsed.

The reason lies in the following keywords: magic materials, magic contracts, vine carts, ants instead of horses.

Of course, what really made my three views completely collapse was the map in Xiao Nan's hand.

The maps are drawn on parchment, which is different from the usual maps, and most of the maps that people can see today are printed based on satellite surveys and mapping, and they are very detailed.

The map in Xiao Nan's hand is completely hand-drawn, with mountains and rivers, forest roads, and it is very retro. Although the drawings are very crude, these patterns that directly depict mountains and rivers as landmarks are easier to understand than today's maps.

The most important thing is the text above, not to mention me, a pseudo-scholar, even Xiao Nan, a real scholar, has never seen it, it is completely a pictogram pieced together with triangles, squares, circles and some irregular geometric figures.

Although we have never seen these words at all, the miracle is that we can actually understand them!

As if these words come with a translation system, as long as you scan them at a glance, you can know the information represented by these words, and you may have to rearrange the order of the phrases in your mind when reading, but otherwise it will not affect the reading at all.

The whole map is encased in a transparent mask with a green glow, although the contrast with the yellowed parchment is very stark, but it does not affect the beauty at all, and the map is drawn with a shiny green dot, the location of the green dot on the map, representing where we are in reality, and as we move, this green dot is also moving slowly.

At first I thought it was some kind of high-tech product, but Tilise insisted that it was a magic item.

In fact, Tilis said that the two ants have been walking on this transport route for many years, and the road has already left their smell, but they don't need to be spurred by the two, they can find the way themselves.

The only thing we need to do on this delivery mission is to correct the direction and always pay attention to whether the ants are going the wrong way, after all, the smell left by the ants may change according to various circumstances, as long as you have this map in your hand, you are not afraid of getting lost.

Unfortunately, the area depicted on the map is only this small forest, and once you get out of this forest, the map is useless, and the rest can only be guided by the road signs on the official road.

The sound of the wind, the chirping of insects and birds, the same green, such a trip is undoubtedly very boring, and the best thing to do to stay awake is to find someone to talk to.

At this moment, I don't have the slightest idea of chatting, maybe Xiao Nan doesn't have either, right? My mind was fixed on Tilis's last words......

According to Tiris, humans are extremely dependent on ants as creatures, and there is no doubt that ants are the most abundant creatures in the world, so she said that ants can be found all over the forest, and even in the whole world, and there is nothing wrong with them.

But...... Since when have ants been so useful? Not only did it completely replace horses and become the main means of transportation, but also replaced military horses, formed knights, and even became the main food for mankind?

Not to mention that the current world does not need to use animals as a means of transportation at all, even if time goes back two hundred years, human beings can't be embarrassed by small ants, right? In the most difficult times for human beings, they can't afford to eat ants to survive, right?

For these conditions to be true, two requirements are required. First of all, there are no animals in this world, and no living thing can replace them except ants. Second, the ant must be the size of an animal.

The second requirement has been established, after all, there is nothing more convincing than seeing it with my own eyes, I can't help but start thinking about the first demand, I even included what I saw and heard on this day and night into the reference range, after careful analysis, but more and more frightened, in the end, I came to a very terrifying conclusion:

We're not crossing, we're getting smaller.

In fact, from the moment I met Tilith this morning, I should have thought about this, after all, who in this world has such a great ability to do whatever he wants, becoming smaller for a while, and big for a while?

No, it seems that there is one, and it is quite famous, but it is not a human, it is a monkey.

If Tiris's body shape hasn't changed, but the two of us have become smaller, according to the comparative analysis of her body shape after seeing her twice, that is, my height of 175 cm has now become only 5 cm tall?

But this is not right, maybe the size of the spider, the black fire ant, and the chameleon can barely be explained, after all, there are really such a large species in the world, so how can I explain the leaf-cutting ant in front of me?

5 cm tall ants? Isn't this still a giant ant? If such a rare species is put on the land of the Great Celestial Empire, it will still be taken to slice and shabu-shabu.

And Tiris's words also revealed a bombshell news: the 5-centimeter villain is not just the two of us, at least the population of a city.

Thinking of these, I instantly felt that the 'magic' I had seen before didn't seem so unbelievable, and relatively speaking, it was still the most acceptable setting.

I shook my head in annoyance, trying to shake out all these strange thoughts in my mind, but it didn't work, and my three views had completely collapsed, and my immune system for these strange things had also collapsed.

I pulled out the two magic contracts from my side pocket, and I was amazed when I remembered the scene when I put my handprint on the contract before.

These are two heavenly books, and although the text on them is exactly the same as the one on the map, the miraculous thing is that I can't read a single word. At that time, when the mudra was pressed, there was no ink, Tilith just opened the contract, and turned to the last page, where two green circles were drawn in the margin, and Tilis made us press them empty-handed.

Strange to say, just when the finger touched the contract, the green circle of light immediately disappeared, and a red fingerprint appeared where the fingertip touched the paper.

Looking at those two bright red fingerprints, I couldn't help but sigh: "Is this magic?" It's magical. ”

"Hey, kitten, look."

Since Xiao Nan was holding the map, the vehicle she was driving led the way, and I followed behind, and when I heard her voice, I raised my head to look at her.

It was a curve, and the car was turning sideways, and I could just see her.

I saw her pointing to a thick tree trunk beside her and said, "Look, this is the rune that the fluttering moth said, right?" In other words, we have gone on the official road? ”

When I looked up, I saw an hourglass-shaped rune drawn on the trunk of the tree, with a layer of green fluorescence on it, full of mystery.

After all, I can't read this text, and I'm not sure if this is the rune that Tilis said, Tiriss just said that this rune forms an enchantment on the official road, and except for a few fixed entrances and exits, the edge of any other barrier will isolate all creatures from the official road.

The previous path was also protected by enchantments, but the runes were very sparse, and it was said that they could only ensure that the walker would not be discovered by some aggressive creatures, and the runes here were much denser.

I simply looked at the surrounding environment, the original road clutter and fine weeds have been reduced a lot, a smooth dirt road appeared in front of me, as the vehicle moved, through this bend, a wide road in front of me suddenly appeared in front of me, this should be the official road.

I looked up at the sky, and compared it to the time on my phone, although I couldn't see the sky due to the dense trees, I could roughly guess the passage of time based on the light around me, and it was already dusk.
