Chapter 199: The Island of the Dead

It was a huge stone statue in the center of the square that looked like a goblin standing in the center, which reminded Xie Yunhe again that this was a strange space.

"Don't have that expression, the inhabitants who live here are all like me, of course, there are many earthlings like you, but basically they are all challengers."

"So it's like your hometown?"

"That's not it, although I live here at the moment, after all, the island of death is quite large, and my hometown is more remote."

Kerr walked to the side of the road, stood on the edge of the yellow line and raised his hand, and a hovering car immediately killed, and a red-skinned dwarf in an aqua blue uniform walked out of the car, smiling and opening the door for the two.

Xie Yunhe forcibly suppressed his stunned expression, and unnaturally followed the relaxed Kerr into the car, feeling unexpectedly comfortable.

"Welcome to the taxi~ Where can I go?"

Sitting in the car, Xie Yunhe found that there was actually a red-skinned female dwarf sitting in the co-pilot. At this moment, he turned his head and looked at the two of them with a polite smile.

At this time, Xie Yunhe realized that he had a misunderstanding about the Kerr race.

Because of the goblins in the gods and demons he had read before, and the appearance of Kerr, he had a preconceived idea that this race was all extremely ugly.

But he was wrong, and he couldn't have been more wrong.

The red-skinned female dwarf in front of him, with long red wavy hair and a shawl, big watery eyes, beautiful curved ears, and extremely delicate skin, are very iconic in his eyes as a human being, and even the difference between him and human beauties may only lie in skin color and height.

"Just stop by the entrance to Area F."

"Okay."

Along the way, Xie Yunhe kept staring out the window at the street scene that was incomparably similar to the human world, or even more magnificent, and Kerr didn't listen to a word of what he was talking about.

Although Xie Yunhe himself has not seen much of the world, he was born into a rich family, and he has been to the metropolis a few times. But now, the shock in his heart is even greater than when he first went to the capital, a highly developed and modern city.

What kind of strange space is this? Xie Yunhe's inner confusion became more and more prevalent.

Eventually, the taxi arrived at a wide area, and although it was not as lively as the shopping street I saw along the way, it was still full of people, and there were obviously a lot more human beings like myself.

"Hey, do you understand what I'm saying?" Kerr only cared about himself along the way, but after speaking, he found that Xie Yunhe was facing himself with his buttocks, lying on the window and watching obsessively.

"Well, forget it. How much is it? ”

The female dwarf turned her head and smiled politely, "The two of you should be the Apostle and the Warrior, right?" Now that the company is doing activities, if you have a credit card, you can get a 20% discount! ”

Kerr's eyes lit up, and he immediately pulled out a black credit card and handed it to her.

The female dwarf respectfully took the card, swiped it on the machine, and gave it back to Kerr.

"Welcome to ride again!"

After getting out of the car, Kerr looked at the big sun and stretched comfortably.

Xie Yunhe also got out of the car and asked curiously, "What she said about Lord Warrior just now refers to me?" ”

"Ah, that, don't care, it's just a title, in the eyes of ordinary citizens, you earthlings are heroes who came to save us, but insiders know that everyone is just taking what they need."

Xie Yunhe nodded as if he didn't understand, and Kerr pointed to a shop with the words "Xiaohuazhuang" written on the sign, and said, "Let's eat here, right?" Their pasta is super delicious. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ It's amazing, the pasta is all there. ”

"Hehe, try it, I bet the noodles here are definitely better than anything you've ever eaten."

"Welcome!"

Xie Yunhe followed and walked in, there were many guests seated, and there were a few humans like himself, but no one looked at him more, obviously he had long been accustomed to it.

The two followed the blue-skinned dwarf attendant to the second floor and sat down by the window.

"I want a tomato bacon pasta, what about you?"

"Same as him, thank you."

The blue-skinned waiter made a quick note and brought two glasses of ice water to the two before leaving.

Xie Yunhe took a sip of water, stared at the scenery outside for a while, suddenly twitched the corner of his eyes, and asked silently: "I said, why do you dwarves have so many skin colors?" I guess you can make a rainbow when you gather together, right? ”

Kerr was drinking water, almost squirting, and immediately glared at him dissatisfied.

"It's really rude, you, first of all, we don't call us dwarves, we call them Modi! Remember, 9 out of 9 of the people who live here are Modi, and secondly! Skin color is a sign of age, and it is very rude not to make such jokes in front of other people. ”

When Xie Yunhe heard this, he immediately realized, and then looked out the window, it seemed that this was really the case. For example, pink dwarves are basically small, and some are held in their arms.

Kerr pointed to the residents outside and explained: "Pink in early childhood, blue in childhood, green in adolescence - I am, 22 years old, usually green at the age of 20, red after 30, yellow after 50, black after 100, and it will not change until death." ”

Xie Yunhe was surprised: "After the age of 100? You are short...... I'm sorry, but how long do you Modi live? ”

Kerr thought for a moment and said, "It depends on individual differences, but you can generally live to be about 300 years old if you don't have anything." ”

"I'm ...... Awesome. ”

Kerr raised a smug eyebrow at Xie Yunhe, who pursed his lips.

But after learning that Kerr was about the same age as himself, Xie Yunhe unconsciously became less defensive about him.

The two plates were steaming, the freshly colored pasta was served, and the blue-skinned waiter smiled politely, "You two use it slowly, just press the button for whatever service you need." ”

Kerr picked up the fork and stuffed it all over his mouth, and said vaguely: "Let's talk after eating, I just saw that you didn't listen to you in the car, just to explain what you are going to do next on the island of death." ”

Xie Yunhe nodded and ate silently.

Indeed, as Kerr says, it tastes better than all the pasta he's ever eaten.

Of course, he hadn't eaten anything good at the Xie family.

It didn't take long for the two of them to lick the plate cleanly, Kerr leaned back in his chair and the old god was picking his teeth on the ground, and Xie Yunhe looked unsatisfied.

"Isn't it expensive here? After all, it's so delicious. Xie Yunhe sighed.

Kerr smiled, "It's not expensive, and if you succeed in one successful challenge, there's enough food here to eat thousands of times." ”

Xie Yunhe nodded silently, took a sip of water, and looked at him waiting for the following.

Kerr looked at him, put down his toothpick, cleared his throat, and his expression became serious.

"Officially introduce yourself, Kerr, a career apostle, whose mission is to roam the various dimensions of the universe in search of qualified challengers."

Kerr pressed the button, and the waiter arrived a few moments later.

"A cup of coffee, how about you?"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Is there a coke? ”

"Okay, you guys, wait a minute."

Xie Yunhe endured not complaining about the four big words "Coca-Cola" written on the ice Coke paper cup that was served, and continued to listen to Kerr.

"We, the Modi, play a role in the universe similar to a universal agency, and the planet with which we have an agreement will come to us for help in the event of a major crisis.

About a thousand years ago, we were commissioned to destroy the barbarians on the Isle of Death. That's why we are on the Island of the Dead and live here. ”

"So there's any direct connection between this and me?" Xie Yunhe said curiously.

Kerr took a sip of coffee, his long nails resting rhythmically on the table, staring at Xie Yunhe and nodding slowly.

"Before we start working on a problem, we do rigorous research, collect a lot of data, and then develop the right solution. And according to the results of the investigation left by the ancestors......

Earthlings – You may not believe it, but there is in fact an infinite number of Earths in the universe...... Listen to it first, and the humans living on Earth are the most suitable race to defeat the barbarians. ”

Time passed minute by minute, Xie Yunhe lowered his head and took a sip of Coke silently.

"So, after coming to this conclusion, we began to put it into practice, first moving to the Isle of Death, and then building a city as close to human society as possible, dividing the barbarians and challengers into various levels according to their strength from beginning to end, and doing our best to improve the survival probability of the challengers challenging the barbarians......

Of course, this is also highly valued when we select peopleβ€”for example, you yourself cannot see it, but the apostles can.

For example, like you, the probability of survival against the barbarian can reach more than 80%, which is also called the potential value, in short, it is very rare to have more than 80. ”

Xie Yunhe raised his eyebrows, remembering Kerr's hatred of iron and steel when he persuaded himself to make a contract, and finally understood the reason.

"So you're going around the earth to catch people?"

Xie Yunhe snorted, quite dissatisfied with the statement that he was a bit used as a prop by Kerr.

Kerr also saw Xie Yunhe's emotions, and grinned and comforted: "Don't worry, there is absolutely no such thing." It may sound uncomfortable to you, but human beings, in terms of the entire universe, can actually only be regarded as a race in the lower middle of the stream.

The reason is not you, but simply that your history is too short. We Modi are the oldest in the universe, about 300 million years old.

But the initial intelligence is not very high, and it is only through long-term evolution that it is a little higher than you humans. If we talk about the speed of evolution alone, human beings are definitely one of the top dozens of races. ”

"And in the context of the universe - although you are unaware of the existence of other races. For the races with amazing evolution speed and unlimited potential, everyone is careful to guard their growth.

This is true of you humans and some other races, and the selection of challengers like this is only a maximum of one per Earth, and it is up to the person to decide whether or not to sign a contract.

Although failure means death, at the same time, success can also lead to great wealth - enough wealth for you to live a completely different life in the original world. ”

"For example?"

Kerr smiled, looking very confident.

"Let's put it this way, as long as you have enough survival points, there's nothing you can't get here. Whether it's material or spiritual, there's everything. ”

Xie Yunhe stared at him for a while, then spread out his hand and shrugged his shoulders: "It's not that I don't believe you, it's just that, at least now, I haven't seen anything except a plate of delicious pasta and a glass of 'Coca-Cola'."

Of course, even if that's all I do, I'm satisfied, as long as you can get me back to Earthβ€”you said there are countless Earths, and I want to go back to the one I used to live in. Then, I'm willing to take on a challenge and take a gamble. ”
