Chapter 1: The New World

John looked at the dotted souls around him and flew with him to the void cave in the sky, which was very interesting.

Yes, this was John's first real sight of the soul. In the past, John saw souls gathered together, and those souls, both strong and weak, were burning. And although these souls can also be seen, they give people the feeling of being more like a disembodied mass of qi or a direct ball of light.

In his thoughts, John flew into the void with the primordial spirits. The moment he entered the void, John felt his consciousness gradually lost.

Forget it, take a break. Somehow, John suddenly felt a sense of tiredness, and he stopped worrying about the way he was now, and lost consciousness.

I don't know how long later, when John awoke from his slumber, the first thing he saw was a huge moon hanging high in the sky.

Did he fall in the wild? John touched his head, feeling some pain in the top of his head. Stretching out the hand that had touched the top of his head just now, he could vaguely see a little red through the moonlight. John was a little confused, I don't know if it was because he had just woken up from his deep sleep, John was still a little dazed, and his attention was naturally not as concentrated as before.

Sitting up from the ground, John looked at his surroundings. Although it was night, the huge full moon hanging in the sky, and the moonlight sprinkled was enough to illuminate the surroundings. John looked around in the soft moonlight.

As John thought, he was now in the wilderness, sitting on a sandy beach with the endless sea in front of him and the lush woods behind him. Very strange landforms. Thinking of this, John stood up and looked down at the place where he had just gotten up, a dark red. With so much blood, there will naturally not be a little blood stain on the body. John looked down at his clothes again. From what he learned from his previous exchange with the primordial spirits, John should now be wearing linen clothes, not the cotton clothes that primordial souls usually wear. There was also a linen bag not far away, but it looked like it should have been torn by some wild beast, not only had the bag been torn into strips and could not be used, but the contents of the bag were scattered all over the ground, and several footprints of unknown animals could be seen around.

John got up and walked over to tidy up the scattered things. The things were fragmentary, including a set of linen pants soaked in the sea, a silver medallion, a dagger, a flint and steel, and a nicely wrapped notebook that had been torn and wrapped by unknown circumstances.

John raised his eyebrows, looked around again, and found a small bag not far away, and from the residue in it, it was clear that it was originally used to hold bread, but now the dry bread inside had been eaten by an unknown animal, and only some scraps remained.

It doesn't look like it's peaceful around here. John took out the dagger he had just gotten and played a trick. Judging from the previous cloth bag, the animals here should not be too large, probably small carnivores.

In other words, the most valuable thing now is the notebook and the medal? John touched his head, and touched the wound again. By the way, you have to see how you got hurt. This wound was definitely not from an animal.

"But first, I'll order a campfire. John looked around, feeling that something was missing, and muttered to himself.

Walking into the woods behind the beach, John was extremely careful. According to the Bell's Wilderness Survival Guide, which he received from Terr, the woods are more dangerous at night than during the day, because at night, many poisonous insects and vipers that were supposed to rest during the day will come out to feed, and they are more likely to injure themselves than small insects such as large beasts.

Now John does not have the immortality and space backpack obtained on the continent of Terr'an, after all, it was given to him by Tel and An, and it has no effect on other worlds; therefore, John now does not have the habit of relying on undead pathfinding, so he can only move forward cautiously, holding a branch from a tree in his hand and constantly beating and waving in front of him, disturbing away the poisonous insects and poisonous snakes that lurk under the thick fallen leaves and ready to hunt. Now John's soul has been connected to the Ter'an Continent, if he dies, he will be pulled back there directly, and if he is bitten to death by a poisonous snake as soon as he arrives without any gain, it will be really humiliating.

Luckily, John didn't plan to spend the night in the jungle, he just wanted to find some dry branches and leaves to make a makeshift campfire, which he could get without going deep into the woods. After a while, John walked out of the woods to the beach with a large pile of dead branches, and when he had set the branches in place, he sparked a dagger on the flint and flint, lit a bonfire, and looked through the notebook by the light of the fire and the night light of the sky.

After carefully reading the contents of the notes in his hand, John closed the notebook in his hand. It was dawn, the sun was already halfway out of the distant horizon, and the morning sun was not strong but still a little dazzling. "It's interesting. John recalled the content of the note just now, with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "I didn't expect that the original owner of this body was also called John." And if the note is correct, even if this is the Primordial World, it is not the time when those Primordial Souls are located. After all, at that time, the British East India Company had long ceased to exist. As he spoke, John picked up the 'medal' in his hand, which was actually the emblem of the British East India Company.

In John's mind, the East British India Company was supposed to have been founded in 1600 during the Age of Discovery, mainly as a multinational corporation formed by merchants from the British Empire at the time. However, the company's main function was to expand the colony, and it was more like a shipping company that brought the colony's expensive goods back home than trade.

None of that was left to chance, John shook his head. If it was the East India Company, it would have been hundreds of years earlier than when the Primordial Soul came, and it was not certain that this was the Primordial World, perhaps other worlds that had contact with the Primordial World.

Let's talk about this body, which was originally a navigator hired by the East India Company, and to put it bluntly, a pirate with a privateer license. During this voyage, the owner of this body suffered from severe scurvy, and it is impossible for a person who has this disease on the sea to obtain good medical conditions, not to mention that it is a disease that lacks vitamins and requires a large amount of vitamin C to suppress it, and on the nautical ship this is not to be thought of, so everyone who has this disease will be thrown off the ship to feed the sharks. Fortunately, the island was discovered at the time, and the captain needed to anchor to replenish fresh water and food, so that the body would be exiled here. As for the wound on the head, it was broken by resistance. That package is the personal belongings of this body, of course, the gold coins and jewels that should have been shared, a dead man is useless, and naturally the captain and the first mate will enjoy it on their behalf.

John shook his head and began to worry about his future in this world.

(Can anyone guess which world this is)
