Ash sat on the damp green grass, staring blankly ahead.

In front of him, on the edge of the dense forest, stood a rudimentary building composed entirely of wooden supports, hemp rope, and black and white burlap.

The building covered an area of about five hundred square meters, and the thick brackets connected the three rooms, two small and one large, and the largest room stood in the middle, one floor higher than the other two rooms, and Ash finally sighed inaudibly after staring at it for a long time.

This thing, the cliff is the so-called 'town center'! The main city of that ultra-old strategy game from my childhood.

At this time, it was getting late, and Ash's place seemed to be a small valley composed entirely of ankle-high grass and dense forests, surrounded by a dense jungle in the distance, and a circle of low mountains beyond, and the valley was so quiet at this time that it was difficult to hear even the sound of birds, so Ash didn't think that there would be any mountain pythons, jungle beasts and other things here.

After sitting on the ground for a long time, Ash's ass was a little numb, and as it got late, the grass seemed more and more wet, so he reluctantly sighed, got up from the grass, and then walked cautiously towards the 'center of town'--- who knows if there will be some sharpened bandit and man-eating monster hidden in this thing!

After all, the way this building appeared is really not a strange way to describe.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance at the silver bracelet on his left hand.

Finally, after looking around the 'town center' three times, touching almost every angle he could touch, Ash mustered up the courage to pull open the wooden door of the tallest hall in the middle.

The door opened, and the bright yellow light immediately spilled out, so that Ash's body that was blown cold by the night wind felt a trace of warmth, and when he looked at it, the hall was empty, and everywhere he looked, the whole hall was divided into two floors, the middle part was hollowed, the stairs on both sides spread up, and the four walls were several meters high, empty wooden shelves, which seemed to be extremely spacious and tall, only not far from the entrance on the first floor, there were several wooden tables, each lit with an oil lamp, swaying with the night breeze blowing in from time to time outside the door.

After a few more attempts, he finally made sure that there was no one here, which made Ash breathe a sigh of relief, and then quickly dodged in and locked the door.

After a brief search, Ash, who was already exhausted, finally found a row of beds behind the curtain on the side of the first floor, although there were only a few thin sheets of coarse cotton on it, but it was a very comfortable rest condition for Ash, who had been wandering outside in a daze all day.

Stuck headlong on one of the beds, Ash felt like he didn't even bother to move his little finger.

It's just that although he is extremely tired and sleepy, he is constantly beating his eyelids and nerves, but the surprise and questions in his stomach still keep him awake, as his heartbeat gradually calms down, and his frozen limbs begin to regain their temperature, he finally begins to recall the strange experience in this short day again.

Just about a dozen hours ago, he was still on one of the most prosperous commercial streets in City B, scolding the beautiful girlfriend who had been raised by him for three years and came out of college, and finally just gave a hat to himself, while he was in a bad mood and walked aimlessly until he found the newly opened toy store called "Childhood Memories" on the side of the road.

I remember that there were no customers in the store except for the half-asleep little old man behind the window, and I was not in the mood to go up and chat with each other after the blow of falling out of love, so I walked around the store by myself, looking at the childhood souvenirs that had long disappeared in my life, what toy soldiers, water margin cards, four-wheel drive cars...... Until he undeservedly picked up the game disc called 'Open Sesame - Age of Empires 2 Conqueror Commemorative Deluxe Edition'......

The whole process of crossing was blurry, and Ash only remembered that the moment he picked up the disc in his hand, his consciousness was completely blurred, and then, in a drowsy state, his eyes were glazed, and he was replaced by a rag-like pair, and descended on this completely unfamiliar world.

At first, Ash thought he was crazy, and in the moment he woke up, he turned into a crazy donkey, running across the endless grassland wilderness, trying to find a car, some pedestrians, even a telephone pole, could not do enough to soothe his fragile and cute little heart.

But of course, none of this could have happened, when he finally collapsed on the edge of a puddle of water exhausted, and saw the face of a handsome young man who could not see anywhere more than Wu Yanzu reflected on the water, and after that, the cat witnessed a bloody battle between medieval knights in a bush...... He finally had to choose to admit his current situation!

Then, after wandering all day, he plunged headlong into the present small valley, and then, while drinking water by a stream, he found a strange bracelet from under the pebble pile, and then, with a flash of golden light on the bracelet, he witnessed the scene of the town center, which was more than 500 square meters in size and nearly ten meters high, out of thin air, and it was precisely because of this that he wandered for a full afternoon. I mustered up the courage to step through the gates of the center of town.

"When you go out, who knows that even a game disc can be a soul to penetrate! It's a pity that I only contacted the class flower of the elementary school yesterday, and I haven't had time to get together yet......"

In the end, in a daze, staccato self-talk, Ash finally did not resist the Sandman's invasion and fell into a deep sleep.

"Gollum ......"

The next day, Ash was woken up by the protest of his own stomach.

It may be that yesterday's events were so ridiculous and terrifying that he, a veteran foodie, temporarily forgot that he could not do without the sacred mission of eating, until he was exhausted, and immediately fell asleep, and as soon as he got up that morning, he felt that he was going to be hungry and scolded his mother.

Well, in front of a foodie, no matter what the problem is, it is not a problem, because the extreme craving for food actually swept away Ash's fear of traveling to the unknown world, which can barely be regarded as a benefit.

It was only after searching the whole center of the town that he could not find the slightest thing to cushion his stomach, including the two houses on either side of the hall, which he had also visited, but they were just ordinary storehouses, although simple, but much cleaner than his face.

With not a single rat to be seen in the valley, and nothing to eat in the creek not far from the center of town, Ash wanted to go outside but feared being slaughtered by the barbarians who had been slaughtered on horseback yesterday, and Ash finally sat helplessly outside the gate of the center of town, with his back against the door, quietly listening to a postmodernist rock song on his stomach.

Helplessly, at this time, he remembered all the things in his previous life again, and knew that if nothing happened, it would be impossible for him to return to that normal, ordinary and comfortable life, and he couldn't help but sigh deeply.

After a morning of searching, it was already sunny at this time, and it was noon, I have to say that Ash, who was completely quiet at this time, suddenly found that the scenery of this world is indeed very moving, although it is just a simple mountain, grass, forest, and water scenery, but it is indescribable quiet and beautiful, this primitive beauty from nature is placed in the world that has been developed by human beings for generations in the previous life, it is simply a scenery that can be encountered but not sought.

Although the wind in the wild was a little fast and a little cold, the warm sunlight made up for this shortcoming, and Ash saw that under the sunlight, the stream not far away was simply transformed into a flowing brilliant crystal, churning and surging, silent and gorgeous.

Seeing enough of the scenery, Ash began to look at the bracelet on his left wrist.

The sudden appearance of the center of the town had a lot to do with the bracelet that had been found from the bottom of the creek, which Ash was sure of, and he hadn't even remembered to look at it because of panic or hunger.

I saw that the bracelet was just the right size when it was worn on his wrist, only about a finger wide, made of unknown materials, and it felt a little like wood, but with a bit of metallic luster, and it was very flexible.

The silver bracelet is embedded with five jewel-like beads, and the left hand is raised in front of him, and the beads are divided into brown, red, gold, gray and black from top to bottom, each of which is crystal clear, but under the sun, there is no trace of reflection, and it is not the slightest dim.

However, he quickly dispelled this thought, judging from what he witnessed yesterday, the world he lived in should be similar to the European Middle Ages in his previous life, in this environment, there is no such thing as human rights and laws, if he just ran to someone's territory and took out such a treasure, then he would definitely turn into a corpse immediately...... Or a slave?

"Here it may be...... It's not the earth at all. ”

Muttering, Ash muttered to himself in a low voice, the reason why he came to such a conclusion was because the group of blonde and blue-eyed medieval knights he saw from a distance yesterday were shouting pure Chinese......

Worried about his unknown future, Ash subconsciously stroked the gems on the silver bracelet with his fingers, as if the cold touch could give his fragile heart some comfort.

Just at this touch, his eyes widened.

Because the five gems that were crystal clear a moment ago, at this time, a few numbers emerged from each of them!

The brown, red, gold, and gray gems each have a small '100', and the bottom black gem has a 0/5 on it

These numbers appeared extremely strangely, but after a moment of surprise, Ash had an extremely bold guess in his mind!

A town center with a weird way to appear! Gemstones of a specific color on the bracelet! Numbers of unknown meaning in gemstones!

Isn't this string of numbers, both in terms of the color of the resources and the style of the numbers, the battle menu of the real-time strategy game called 'Age of Empires'?

Brown for wood, red for food, gold for gold, and gray for stone! And the last black gem represents the population! And the reason why it shows the appearance of 0/5 is because of the town center behind you, if you remember correctly, this town center can just provide the player with a population of 5!

...... so?

Thinking of this, Ash sat up from the ground with a slam of his ass, but before he could stand firmly, he felt a strong sense of dizziness, and subconsciously looked at the bracelet on his wrist, only to see a dazzling light suddenly burst out of the bracelet, and then rushed into his chest!

Ash's body is as stiff as iron!

This thing is eating back? What was that light just now? Are you going to hang up like this?

Although there was not the slightest pain in his chest, Ash didn't even dare to move, so he had to wait for the change to happen inwardly.

However, after standing stiff for more than ten minutes, he still did not feel the slightest change in his body.

Ash moved his body slowly, his mind full of questions.

But when he turned around again and set his eyes on the center of the town in front of him, the doubt in his eyes immediately turned to ecstasy!

In Ash's field of vision, above the center of the town, there was a virtual menu floating like a game interface!

Producing villagers, developing weaving techniques, setting assembly points, ringing the town alarm bell, and evolving into the feudal era...... I really guessed it right!

There is no doubt that this cliff is the welfare of self-traversing, the guarantee of future survival --- a set of Age of Empires base system!
