41 Lonely old men

There was no other person to communicate with, so the Death Knight welcomed Charles' arrival, and he didn't even wait for him to speak, he offered to live in his cabin.

In this regard, Charles, who had nowhere to go and did not know when he would be able to leave this place, naturally had no idea of refusing.

Then Charles discovered the place, or the peculiarities of the old man in black.

For example, there was only one bed in the room, but Charles was only turning around when a second one suddenly appeared.

At the same time, there was a compartment in the room, and it seemed that it was as it should be.

In reality, however, Charles remembers well that it was just a small space with a living room and bedroom mixed together – not even a kitchen.

Speaking of the kitchen, another surprising thing is that the old man can "conjure" any food he wants at any time without having to do it himself.

Hot dogs, burgers, pizza, and even some kind of Chinese specialty.

"In a sense, it's a nice environment."

To Charles's surprised expression, the other party replied.

The food that pops up and down at any time, the old TV with any movie on the planet, and the obviously broken but surprisingly powerful Eaton radio......

Life here is much more interesting than Charles first imagined.

Similarly, the old man in black who lives here is also very different from what Charles knew.

Let's say the other person rarely watches TV. In addition to eating, I read the newspaper in my spare time, and the source of the newspaper is also a problem.

It was estimated that his life had always been like this before, and now, there was one more item.

……

"You love watching Johnny. Depp's films? I don't like him very much, his acting skills are pompous. ”

……

Compared to modern films, I prefer silent films from not so long ago. It's always annoying to be noisy.

……

"Earth is a very interesting place, in the vast universe, it is smaller than a grain of sand, but it gives birth to so many interesting things."

"God's favorite place is the earth. I liked it too, so I specifically asked him to imprison me here. ”

……

"Elsewhere? There are those who look like bugs, there are those who look like lizards, and there are freaks with two faces, which are really ugly compared to humans. ”

"If you look at my image, you can guess my aesthetic."

……

He munched on the chicken rolls, and the words in his mouth, though they sounded rather casual, could not hide the nature of his chatterbox.

Of course, this is understandable, considering that he will not be imprisoned for less than 5,000 years.

And the words in the other party's mouth were also very interesting, which opened Charles's eyes.

……

There is no sun or moon in the gray world, and it is not clear exactly how time passes, and even the speed of time seems to be very different from normal time.

For example, the charr performed the ritual at the same time as the sacrifice, but there were several hours between the time they saw the Death Knight.

Of course, it could have been due to other reasons, and Charles wasn't sure about it β€” the television was more of a special perk than a television, or a library of films where any of Earth's films could be viewed, but there was no live news program that showed the time.

So it's not hard to guess why the Death Knight prefers to read newspapers, but the newspapers in his hands are basically ten years old......

Coming here inexplicably, there seems to be no other choice than to have the mentality of being at ease with what happens.

After the initial restraint, Charles became familiar with this old man with a good name and a kind personality.

This man has a peculiar personality, and there doesn't seem to be much to be taken to his heart.

Technology, humanities, religion, and even angels and demons...... Even when it comes to the possible apocalypse in the near future, he looks like he is lacking in interest.

"It's destined to be a bad family emotional drama, and they were like that last time."

"I'd love to go out and get some exercise."

……

The lifeless woods, and a small log cabin in the woods, although the various functions of this house are strange, but it is difficult to hide the nature of its cage.

The Death Knight seemed accustomed to everything around him, but it didn't take long for the new prisoner to sit still.

So after a "breakfast" at one point, he asked, "Can I go out and have a look?" ”

As he spoke, he pointed to the gray forest outside the window of the cabin.

"There's nothing to see, there's nothing here." The old man sitting on the sofa reading the newspaper replied lightly.

"But I saw a clay figure before." Charles reminded him.

"Clay figures?" The old man's face was stunned, and then he said: "Those who are dead have a grudge against me, it is very boring, but ......"

After thinking about it, he took off a ring from his hand: "If you really want to go out, wear it, or you will get lost in the woods." ”

Charles took it and looked at it, and a hint from the True Eye appeared in front of him.

【Death Knight's Ring, a ring of death and power】

[It is full of deterrent power in the cage world]

[Turn it and you can instantly return to the cabin]

……

"Thank you."

"No thanks, I don't want the only guest here all these years to die in front of my eyes."

Xia Erxin said that with you dying here, I was still afraid of what would die, but he felt that he was not so familiar with the other party, so he didn't say anything more, and after saying goodbye, he walked towards the outside of the wooden house.

Pushing open the wooden door, looking up at the gray sky, and placing the white ring given by the Death Knight on his right index finger, Charles strode towards the woods in front of the cabin.

The ground around the hut is relatively dry, and when you step into the surrounding gray woods, a soft, sticky touch emerges from the soles of your feet.

The ground beneath his feet is black and slightly blood-red, covered by gray leaves, which looks like a strange burial ground, and the surrounding trees are also dull and colorless, and there is a cold and silent atmosphere when you look at it.

Charles didn't know where to look for the monster he had only seen before, so he unconsciously walked the way he had come.

However, after walking a few steps, he suddenly found that the surface of what should have been a forest path under his feet was not visible at all.

"Finding the wrong direction? Or is there no road here? ”

Thinking about what the Death Knight had said to him before, he reacted a little.

Since there is only one "person" here, it is naturally impossible for any way to exist, and what he saw when he came here before is probably inseparable from his promotion ceremony.

Silently, he had a deeper understanding of the necromancer's advancement, but it didn't help here.

As I walked, the dim trees on both sides passed by one after another, and the wooden houses behind them became more and more subtle, and finally disappeared completely.

The surrounding area is basically surrounded by trees on all sides, and the sound of human howls faintly comes to your ears.

Charles hurried silently in the direction from which the voice came. I don't know how long it took, but a "dwarf" with a height of about one meter and a whole body covered in black silt came into view.

The dwarf had no hair, two antler-like branches on top of his head, and his limbs looked like dry wood.

When Charles spotted it, it was crouching in front of a tree and howling with its trunk up.

Hearing the noise, it slowly turned its head, revealing a face that was also covered in black mud. I couldn't see the looks, but the scarlet eyes were very unique, and I looked at Charles, and there was a hint of resentment in my eyes.

And when he saw the white ring in Charles's hand, this resentment was even more obvious. However, to its surprise, it did not attempt to attack the Charr, but instead got up and ran.

However, in fact, Charles went out this time mainly for it, so naturally it was impossible to let him escape.

The resentment of the Ring of Wraiths has been consumed a lot lately, and Charles has always been thinking about replenishing its resentment, but it has not been free.

This thing in front of me seems to be a good supply.

Even though Charles wasn't familiar with the fighting power of this thing, with the ring given by the Death Knight, he had nothing to worry about.
