Chapter 352: The Watcher
"How to get home?"
"I'm sorry, but there's nothing I can do about it."
The messenger shook his head.
"You can't go back, is there really no way?" Gong Bing asked without giving up.
"Time flies, time flies, I have searched and tried many methods, some I know and some I don't know, but unfortunately, home is far away, and I am still here."
The hope that had just appeared fell to the ground before it could rise, and when he heard the other party's words, Gong Bing's face was full of disappointment.
At this time, the two of them walked to the exit of the passage, which was no different from before, the exit was still covered with vines, and as the messenger approached, the vines obediently moved away and made a hole.
Then a burst of water came from outside the mouth, and a thick water vapor came to the nose.
"I can't go back, but it's not completely hopeless for you." The envoy walked out directly through the mouth without stopping, and said softly to Gong Bing at the same time.
"Really?"
"What the hell is that method?"
Gong Bing was startled, and hurriedly chased after him and asked.
When Gong Bing crossed the opening, what appeared in front of him was a large underground tunnel, and there were also many plants with faint fluorescence in the tunnel.
The top of the head is so dark that you can't see the top, and the left and right sides are constantly winding and stretching endlessly in the distance, and looking ahead, there is a fast-flowing underground river in the low-lying place not far away, and the sound of the water is coming from left to right.
The two walked along the slope to the side of the underground river, and the messenger walked slowly along the river, looking unhurried and impatient, but Gong Bing was not as calm as her, and he urgently knew how to go home, so he followed the other party and asked again.
"As we all know, every world has a world barrier, which encompasses the world and protects it from the invasion of the Void Chaos, and in most cases, the world barrier is unbreakable, let alone destroyed, even if you want to make an opening in it, even if it is only a small one, it is a thousand difficult things, and you will even lose your life if you try rashly.
Except in special circumstances, if you want to leave a world, you must either have great strength, special talents, or get targeted treasures. ”
"And how did you get here?"
"I was just an accident, an accident that couldn't be replicated, so I lost the possibility of going home." The messenger's tone was somewhat low, and he was clearly reluctant to say anything more about it.
"So what should I do?" Gong Bing changed the question.
In his opinion, not only does he not have any superb talent, but also he has no treasures that can travel through the world, so according to what the other party said, if he wants to leave this world, it seems that the only way left is to become stronger.
But it's strong enough to break down the barriers of the world......
Gong Bing shook his head secretly, he really couldn't imagine how strong he had to be to do this.
And that sounds too fantastical.
Reality is not a small storybook, let alone games and movies, and he is not one of those sons of the plane who is loved by heaven and earth and is blessed with luck, he can fight monsters and pick up treasures along the way, and then he can sit back and relax, and keep upgrading like a rocket, and finally shatter the void and fly to the upper realm.
"No, no, no, for you, to be fair, the fastest way is to tap into your talents." The messenger said in strange grammar.
"You have this talent."
Talent?
"I'm talented?" Gong Bing was puzzled.
The messenger stopped, she looked back at Gong Bing, as if she was looking at an old friend she hadn't seen in a long time, Gong Bing seemed to be able to sense a hint of memory from the other party's gaze.
"That's right, it's talent, you're a lot like a friend I've met in the past, a rare friend."
"Although we have only met a few times, she is the first friend I have met in all these years of coming to this world with the same experience."
"You have the same talent and the same temperament as her, and I'm sure you're from the same world, so when I noticed that, I immediately asked Leighton to invite you over."
She?
From the same world?
Gong Bing chuckled in his heart, he thought of a person, and he almost blurted out the name of this person.
"What's her name?"
"Names, she has more than one name, more nicknames, but she says her real name is... Qi Zihan. ”
"Qi Zihan!!" Gong Bing couldn't help but exclaim.
Sure enough, it was her!! She really came to this world!!
Gong Bing had long felt that the two people who crossed the Star Gate together should arrive in the same world, but he hadn't heard from each other, so he wasn't sure.
At this time, when he heard the other party's name again, Gong Bing's heart suddenly became excited.
"Look, you know her, you two are really from the same world." Seeing Gong Bing's reaction, the envoy said firmly.
"Qi Zihan mentioned you to me, if I'm not mistaken, your name should be ...... Gong Bing, well, Gong Bing, I hope I'm not mistaken. ”
"That's right, my real name is Gong Bing, what about Qi Zihan? Where is she now? ”
"She's gone, she's no longer in this world."
She ...... She's dead? ”
"No, no, no, just like she did when she first came here, she left here again to go to another world, and that was forty or fifty years ago."
“… Oh. ”
Although he and Qi Zihan are close to each other, Gong Bing believes that as long as the two of them have the same wishes, they will always meet again in the future.
So he quickly overcame his emotions, cheered up, and asked instead.
"If I heard you right, you just mentioned another world?"
"You heard it right, it's a pity, although she successfully left, she still couldn't return to your original world, you must know that the void is infinite, the world is thousands, and the number of worlds is much more than the stars in the night sky, so if you don't have specific coordinates, if you want to find your original world, it is undoubtedly looking for a needle in a haystack."
"As long as you can leave, there's hope, isn't it?"
"So please tell me how to leave."
Gong Bing was not discouraged and continued to ask.
"You and Qi Zihan behaved exactly the same at the beginning, and they both don't know anything about their identity." The messenger shook his head and said.
Gong Bing also felt confused, so he didn't interject, but waited for the other party to solve his doubts, and the messenger didn't sell it, and continued.
"You both belong to a race called Watch, and your race is characterized by great strength, diverse abilities, and traveling through the void, and planeswalking is your racial talent.
I have heard that within you, depending on your status and ability, you will have different names and identities, but externally, you will generally refer to yourself as the watchman. ”
"How can you be so sure I'm from this watchman?"
Gong Bing knows his origin very well, he is just an ordinary earthling, and he has no magical abilities at all.
In his opinion, let alone whether the watcher race in the other party's mouth is real, even if what the other party said is true, but he has lived on the earth for so many years, but he has never heard of anyone on the earth who has such an ability.
So he was sure that the earthlings had nothing to do with the watchmen.
......
Powerful?
Through the Void?
Don't be funny!
With Gong Bing's background, even if he is not qualified to participate in more advanced events, it is not so difficult to find out about those secret things that are not known to the vast majority of ordinary people, even if he is only a marginal person in the family.
But he had never heard of such a thing, not even a few words, and that was why he was suspicious of the messenger's words.
"Gong Bing, you don't have to doubt it, I have already confirmed the identity of the watchman on Qi Zihan's body, and you have the same aura as Qi Zihan.
What's more, Qi Zihan has already left this world through natural ability, seeing is believing, hearing is false, there will be nothing wrong with this. The messenger replied as a matter of course.
"One more thing, every watcher has the ability to see their own condition, and you have it, don't you?"
Ability to see your own condition?
System?
Dashboard?
Gong Bing was startled, his eyes rolling back and forth.
The envoy ignored what Gong Bing was thinking, and she continued to walk forward, the rushing water beside her becoming the background sound of the other party's speech.
"Because you have this natural ability to travel through the void, the Warden has always been a race of constant sojourners, most of the members rarely live in groups and stay in a fixed place, your footprints are all over the Void, countless worlds have left your figure, even in my hometown, there are deeds about your Warden clan handed down."
"As far as I know, the main reason why you Warden keep traveling is because you have a destined enemy, and that enemy is the Demon.
Every watchman is on his own duty to destroy the demons, and he fights for it all his life, even at the cost of his own life. ”
"Demons? What is a demon? Gong Bing heard a new term again, so he asked.
"Demons are monsters of chaos, twisted beings, enemies of all intelligent creatures, order and civilization.
My ancestors fought alongside the Warden against the invasion of demons, and the story of your people has been handed down from that time, but because of the passage of time, all kinds of written records have disappeared with the passage of time, and all that remains is only word of mouth.
And it was by chance that I learned about the Warden from the mouth of a clan elder. ”
......
"So, do you know how the Warden can activate their talent for traveling through the void?" Gong Bing asked in a deep voice.
Although he was asking the other party, Gong Bing was extremely convinced.
"That's right, Qi Zihan successfully stimulated his talent with my help."
