Section 201 New Frontiers, New Beginnings
Chen Yan's help was not shouted in the end, but he also got what he wanted.
Now he was sitting at the top end of a Beetle, his body shaking with the shaking of the car. Around him were many travelers in different clothes, all huddled together in a nest and trying to make themselves comfortable. It is surrounded by a rudimentary railing, barely protected.
This is the Beetle's 'premium cabin', the best sightseeing seat. If you don't care about the wind and sand.
"Hey man, are you new here?" A traveler shouted to Chen Yan from the side, and at the same time raised the wine bottle in his hand.
Chen Yan nodded politely and replied. "yes, what about you?"
"It's not the first time I've walked this line. If you need help, I can guide you. The traveler said with a grin, adding at the end. Of course, not for free. ”
"I'm not used to eating a free lunch, what do you think?" Chen Yan smiled slightly, and talked about the past few gold deleters. The other party took it, looked at it, and threw it back.
"Hey, young man, you're not going to do business with these things, are you? You're going to die. ”
"How?" Chen Yan asked. "Don't you like gold here?"
"No, it's actually a liquid thing, but it's obsolete currency. If you want to survive in this area, you need this. The traveler laughed, took out something and shook it at Chen Yan. It was a purple disc, crystal clear.
"Tika?" Chen Yan was slightly stunned, this realm actually directly used Tika to trade? Even ordinary people will circulate?
"Tika? Oh, of course not. The traveler shook his head, looking at Chen Yan with a strange look in his eyes. Are you from the Upper Districts? How can we trade with a picker? ”
"And what is this?"
"Tik, trace psionic currency." The traveler shrugged his shoulders. "Isn't there a saying? The soul is the eternal quest of the devil. So this currency is more valuable than Goldler, just not as good as Tika. ”
"I see." Chen Yan nodded. This makes sense, although Tik also contains psionic particles, but if it is a trace amount, it can also be consumed by ordinary people. Of course, this is also the upper realm, and it is absolutely impossible in the Hui River Basin.
The topic opens, and then it's easy to talk about. As he chatted with this enthusiastic traveler, Chen Yan gradually understood the general situation of this realm.
The name of this realm is wind turbidity, which represents the color of dryness, and due to the lack of water and other reasons, the environment of the entire realm is mostly desert. However, it contains extremely rich mineral particles. Most notably, it produces a trace amount of psionic particles called 'Tilmi'.
This psionic particle is not a human psionic energy, but the crystallization of a small insect in the desert, although small but surprisingly numerous, and has also become a specialty of the Wind Turbidity Domain. Because of the stable production and abundant reserves, it has promoted the development of civilization in the wind and turbidity region, and the scale of the city is much larger than that of the Hui River basin.
What surprised Chen Yan the most was that in the Wind Turbidity Domain, humans were not a weak race.
This may also have something to do with the formation of wind turbidity domains. It is said that in the last era, the humans here were not willing to be enslaved by demons and fought a war of jade and stone. They used a nuclear weapon-like doomsday to kill and injure a large number of demons in extreme time. At the same time, thousands of urban ruins were created. In the end, he fought with the demons of almost the entire realm, which also directly contributed to the end of the era.
Desertification in the wind and turbidity region is the sequelae of the large-scale use of weapons of destruction by mankind.
Therefore, in this era, although the demons have the advantage of technology and strength, they dare not force the human race too hard, and prevent another era of apocalypse. Humans have also devoured the consequences of their own destruction of the environment.
Fortunately, relatively developed civilizations have compensated for the harsh environment, creating the ...... 'ruined ecosphere' where humans currently live.
This is a city built on the ruins of the previous era, with the ruins as the main body radiating a complex and vast ecosystem. Humans use a lot of technology and energy to complete it, protect it, and thus give themselves a place to live. Ruined cities are scattered on the continent of the Wind Turbidity Domain, and they have become the kingdom of mankind.
And the main bridge connecting these cities is the 'Beetle' caravan under Chen Yan.
"Desert snail boat." Talking about this, the traveler raised his glass and laughed. "I love it. You know? It is because of its existence that we desert travelers can move from city to city and earn money to support our families. ”
"Well, it's pretty good." Chen Yan nodded in agreement. He could already feel it like this, and the huge 'Beetle' under him had a very strong motivation. Even the harshest environment can't stop it from moving forward. And the heavy carapace gave it enough protection to withstand the storms of the desert.
Generally speaking, as long as you don't encounter the kind of giant tornado you walk out of, the beetle under you is very difficult to destroy.
It's just that the 'sightseeing' location is a bit miserable.
"Don't mind, it's just last class." As if he knew what Chen Yan was thinking, the traveler said with a grin. "You can't expect to live without spending money, right? If you don't like sand, just give a little money to the people over there and you'll have a great trip. ”
He was referring to one of the guards on the edge of the fence. It can be seen that the guy is in charge of the top 'cabin'. If this humble fence is also a cabin.
"I see." Chen Yan smiled and nodded. Said to the traveler. "What do you call it?"
"Just call me Jack, old Jack is an old horse who knows his way, and everyone here knows it." The traveler said triumphantly.
"Alright then, Old Jack." Chen Yan stood up and patted the dirt on his body. "I wonder if you'd like to go down here with me for another drink? I think there should be better wine and food, and of course, I'm in for a treat. ”
"You're in for a treat?" Old Jack looked at Chen Yan with some suspicion. Apparently don't think that the guy who is still using Goldler has the money to entertain. "Of course." Chen Yan smiled slightly, and popped a coin out of his hand.
The purple glow was so dazzling and dreamy in the sunlight that even the guards in the distance couldn't help but look at it.
Old Jack was stunned for a moment, and he lost his voice in disbelief. "Tika?"
"Let's go, dear old horse, I think we have a lot to talk about." Chen Yan gave the tica bullet to the guards in the distance, and then put it on Old Jack's shoulder.
At this time, Old Jack found out that Martha and the others beside Chen Yan also stood up at the same time.
"You ...... Is it a gang? ”
"You're not a traveler?"
"Oh no, of course I am." Chen Yan replied, smiling a little proudly. "That's my old profession, trust me, I'm a professional." (To be continued.) )
