Chapter 236: Dialogue
"That's true, I don't have to lie to you."
Speaking of which, the two sides probably understood what the other meant.
"Guests from afar, please forgive me for being sloppy just now."
As soon as the voice of the curtain branch changed, he was no longer entangled in this question, "It's dinner time, why don't we talk while eating?" ”
"I think so, too."
Chen Shi's eyes flickered, and he did not object.
Ten minutes later, just outside the wooden house, an open-air barbecue became the dinner for Chen Shi and his party.
Fortunately, the little girl's father was not as sloppy as he was, and at least the others had clean hands and cleaned the meat before they forked it up for barbecue.
1214-B01 smelled the fragrance in his sleep, slipped up, and sat down next to the fire with his eyes open, looking at Chen Shi quite helplessly.
"You can call me Chen, it's Xingdian, Bingyu, and my daughter......"
Chen Shi paused and pointed to 1214-B01: "This is B01." ”
The second language also has a lot of strange pronunciations of English, and it is no problem for the other party to pronounce this, but it is quite strange, probably similar to the feeling of a Chinese name called "Zhao Rasguchi".
"Hello."
Makuji couldn't wait to ask, "Can you show me Tsubasaki's manual?" ”
"Absolutely."
Chen Shi didn't care about this, and casually threw the manual to the curtain branch, got the curtain branch of the manual, and flipped through it again by the light of the fire.
After reading it, its expression immediately fell into solemnity.
After a long time, it put down the manual, compared to Chen Shi's unfamiliarity with the second language, it was too familiar with the second language, and it was also an adventurer, and it was also familiar with the special terms of adventurers, and it was much faster than Chen Shi to look through it.
But its expression also changed from impatience at the beginning to a trace of pain.
"No, really not...... Actually not. ”
"So I said, I don't have to lie to you about it."
Chen Shi said lightly.
"I'm sorry, I was wrong."
Makuji sighed.
"Adventurer, please eat."
Xiaoju, the daughter of the shogunate, happily handed a piece of grilled meat skewer to Chen Shi.
Chen Shi took it, hesitated for a moment, and watched Xiaoju eat with a mouth full of oil, and then tried a bite, hey, it smells salty? It is also a little spicy, and it can be said that it is delicious and in line with human taste.
"This salt ......"
Although humans in the 25th century have designed these strange intelligent beings to be physically superior to those of the ancients, they still require many elements, such as the important salt.
"There is a mineral salt nearby...... Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to make it this far. ”
Makuji smiled wryly.
"If you don't mind, can you tell me something about the ground?"
Chen Shi ate skewers and had the illusion that he was still on earth.
"What do you want to know?"
Makuji lost his previous hope and was a little depressed.
"For example, the Four Kingdoms you spoke of earlier? What does that mean? The seed of wisdom in your mouth? And you adventurers are also ranked? ”
"The Four Kingdoms are the four kingdoms in the verbal sense...... The land of ice, the country of mountains, the country of sand, the country of insects. To the west, the Land of Ice is located on a plateau with countless ice fields. The country of mountains is located in the north and is the country with the most mountains, the country of sand is on the verge of the south and is a desert Gobi, and the country of insects is in the east and is covered with countless forests and swamps. In the middle of the four kingdoms is the Ruined Capital. ”
"And outside the Four Kingdoms...... It is a completely different place from our four kingdoms, which is not under our rule. ”
Makuji's eyes narrowed: "It's the rest of the different wisdom species...... Spread out of the Four Kingdoms. ”
"Whew...... Since the establishment of the Four Kingdoms for more than 300 years, many times due to the invasion of other intelligent species, and had to start wars, if it were not for the acquisition of a lot of relics in the Ruined Capital, the Four Kingdoms would have been destroyed under heavy pressure, and therefore, the Four Kingdoms' exploration of the Ruined Capital has not stopped. ”
Makuji raised the manual in his hand: "Adventurer Wing, is an extremely famous adventurer among the four kingdoms, if it can go back alive, it may indeed be recognized by the four kingdoms together, and the adventurer's highest honorary medal will be awarded, and it is also the greatest rank of the adventurer, which must be recognized by the four kingdoms together to get it." ”
Makuji carefully explained to Chen Shi that in general, the rank of an adventurer is actually quite difficult to obtain, even if it is the lowest level of "Xinghuo", it must pass a national-level examination before it can be officially recognized.
As for the subsequent promotion, it is not something that can be obtained by virtue of the exam, and it is necessary to make actions that are beneficial to the four kingdoms in the process of adventuring to be promoted.
Makuji is an adventurer with the rank of "Black Mountain", which is the penultimate ladder, from "Starfire" to "Indestructible", and then to "Black Mountain", it takes more than ten years of hard work, and above "Black Mountain", it will take more than ten years of hard work, and above "Black Mountain", it will take more than "Four Seas" to reach the "Earth" level of Adventurer Wing.
A very strict promotion system, this is what Chen Shi thought after listening to the explanation.
"So, you only want to reach the seventh layer in order to be promoted to the 'Four Seas'?"
Chen Shi was thoughtful.
"The acquisition of relics is too rare, and the powerful relics are even more difficult to obtain, and the time and place are indispensable......"
Makuji sighed, "If I can find a fast passage to the seventh and eighth layers compared to obtaining rare relics, then with this merit, not to mention the honor of the 'Four Seas', even the 'firmament' above the 'earth' is not impossible. Yixing is too greedy, obviously it has mastered this method, but it doesn't take it out and announce it, otherwise it will have no problem to be promoted to the 'sky'. ”
"By the way, have you ever heard the word 'human'?"
Chen Shi deliberately pronounced "human" in Chinese.
"Humans?"
Makuji frowned, "No, I haven't heard of it, what kind of language is this?" ”
"Ahem, I've heard this word on the ninth floor, so maybe it's my delusion."
Chen Shi ate another skewer of barbecue, "This barbecue is really good." ”
Fresher and more tender than the beef he had ever eaten, it was no wonder that 1214-B01 was so happy to eat.
"If you don't find a way in the manual, you may have to continue waiting for the vortex."
Makuji is not in the mood to eat barbecue, and his face is worried.
"Air vortex? What does that mean? I read in the manual, the seventh layer is called the sea of air vortex clouds? Does it have something to do with this? ”
"That's right, the sea of air vortex clouds on the seventh layer is talking about the sea of clouds, there is an air vortex that occasionally appears, if you can see the air vortex, then you can leave the seventh layer through the air vortex."
Speaking of this, Makuji said sadly: "But that kind of air vortex is extremely rare to see, I have been waiting here for eight years, and I have not seen an air vortex, and I even began to wonder if the air vortex that the adventurers who entered here before said is not a fictional thing." ”
"I have a question, since you can't find the air vortex, why don't you leave here?"
Chen Shi pointed to the towering giant tree on his head: "Actually, you can enter the eighth layer from there." ”
"I've guessed it, but my daughter ......"
Makuji smiled helplessly: "I can't take that huge risk anymore, and my wife and I tried eight years ago, and we failed, so we returned here and tried to leave the seventh floor to go back, but I couldn't leave after waiting for a long time, and this is our daughter." ”
"Daddy, don't cry."
Xiao Ju listened quietly beside her, and immediately wiped her father's tears at this moment.
"Ah, Xiaoju, I didn't cry."
Makuji smiled wryly and patted his daughter's head.
For the sake of his daughter, he didn't dare to take any more risks, and Chen Shi could understand it.
"If you don't come, I'll probably die here like this."
Makuji couldn't hide a trace of sadness in his words: "I don't care, but I can't let my daughter stay here for the rest of my life, I want her to go to the ground and see that there are many peers like her." ”
"I'm sorry, I lost my words."
"It's fine."
Chen Shi waved his hand, indicating that he didn't mind.
"Chen, since you are from the tenth layer, which is lower than the ninth layer, can you tell me about your life?"
As an adventurer, curiosity is definitely strong enough.
Chen Shi had already thought of a reason, if he wanted to fool a person, it must not all be explained by lies, he directly changed the world of Xingdian, and it was basically harmonious, it was indeed a deeper layer than the ninth layer, and he was not telling a lie.
"It's that big under the ninth layer?"
Makuzhi's eyes widened, and he only felt incredible: "Oh my God, if you can go back to the ground, this will definitely be a great discovery, and it can shock everyone in the four kingdoms." ”
"According to you, it's a matter of luck."
It is impossible to say that Chen Shi is not depressed, a way that can only be left by luck, is that also called a way? Leaving the pass manual, it's really damn good, obviously in the manual said that he had another way, but he didn't clarify the method, as if he was deliberately selling off.
What can we do now?
You can't really wait for that vortex to appear, can you?
What if you can't wait for a lifetime?
Survive in the wilderness on this island?
Chen Shi's eyelids jumped, if he didn't have that countdown, he wouldn't mind if he continued to play on this island where there was no danger, but it would be equivalent to putting the safety of all mankind at risk.
This one is definitely not going to work, and you have to find a way out.
Hey, wait, as if he overlooked something.
A fleeting thought, Chen Shi thought about it carefully, but he didn't find a place to ignore it.
"What's wrong?"
Makuji found that Chen Shi had not spoken for a long time.
"Well, nothing."
Chen Shi glanced at the curtain branch, his heart moved slightly, put down the skewers in his hand and stood up.
"You're going to find that vortex every day, aren't you? Can you take us to see it tomorrow? ”
"If you don't say it, I'll take you to see it."
Makuji solemnly: "If you add more people, you may be able to perceive the difference, but I can't actually observe all the places alone." ”
