Chapter 2 Stones
"Where the hell did I go in? These people: Is it really 'human'.."
Zhao Zhong was depressed in his heart and stared closely at the staff member in front of him.
Subsequently, after he walked out of the gas station half-retreating under the puzzled eyes of the staff, he took a long breath when he saw that these "pedestrians" had no intention of attacking him, feeling that these people should be real people.
"They looked at me like a passerby. There was no curiosity, no hostility. But if it's a ghost world, they won't show the same flat expression as they look at strangers."
Zhao Zhong looked at these pedestrians, and when he came to the road, he calmed down a little, and then walked to a place with few people, combined with his previous thoughts, thinking about his bizarre experience.
And some of the pedestrians and couples passing by also had their own opinions, and no one was curious about Zhao Zhong, who was standing in place as if thinking about something.
"Where are you going to eat today?"
"Just go wherever you want.."
Words for lovers, conversations for friends.
To Zhao Zhong's ears, these pedestrians spoke Cantonese.
But strangely, he could understand it.
"They speak Cantonese? But Lin City is thousands of kilometers away from Guanggang... Could it be a parallel world? Or is it what I said on TV, because of what Northern Lights, what magnetic field effect, I traveled thousands of kilometers to come to Guanggang? ”
When Zhao Zhong looked at the couple in front of him, in his approximate impression, today's one-day journey was only a short dozen kilometers.
As long as there are no accidents, no matter what he says, he will not run to Guanggang, which is more than 2,000 kilometers away.
After all, with his thoughts of living under the red flag and not believing in cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods, he felt that he should have encountered some kind of magnetic field effect.
Only in this way can it barely be explained by some scientific phenomena.
But then, after Zhao Zhong thought about the problem of his car and these pedestrians, the more he thought about it, the more confused he became.
"How did my car disappear... Could it be that the place just now can still let me go back... But how did these pedestrians suddenly appear.."
Zhao Zhong thought in his heart, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and wanted to see where he was now through the GPS map.
Wow—
The phone was turned on, and at a glance, he saw that the number of signal bars displayed by the phone was empty.
"There is a signal tower nearby, how can there be no signal?"
Zhao Zhong glanced up at the signal tower in the distance, thinking back to the sign that he couldn't see clearly.
"Could it be that the road really leads to another world."
Confused, he endured his uneasy emotions and opened the map in his phone, only to see that his location was really fixed at the exit of that highway.
And that road, on the map markings, is also an ordinary country dirt road.
When Zhao Zhong saw it, he felt like he had encountered a strange and strange thing that could not be solved. And it was at this juncture that when he didn't know what to do, he suddenly felt some burning in his chest.
"Is that the stone?"
Subconsciously reaching out, he took out a plain white stone from his neckline.
There was an eye drilled into it, and there was a string of wires.
This is what he picked up in the water when he was a child when he caught fish by the river, and there is nothing special about it.
But it was because he was playful when he was a child that he brought it home and let the tailor at the head of the village drill an eye, wear a rope, and wear it around his neck.
Over time, if you have feelings, you will always carry them.
But.
When he took the stone from his collar now, he saw that the stone glowed slightly white. At the same time, the open map on the phone is also disappearing, replaced by a black background and a pile of white text.
[System Name: Unnamed]
Holder: Zhao Zhong
Maker: Deceased
Efficacy: According to the strength of the holder, it will immediately come to exist in the corresponding worlds such as movies, novels, etc.

Prestige: 0 (The higher the prestige, the higher the holder's initial status in the world of the next reward.) )
Other features: Not activated
Status: Sent to the package
[Starter Pack: It has been sent to the current world, please pay attention to check]
The text becomes fluid, and after the line is displayed, it disappears, and the original mobile phone navigation map appears.
"Unnamed system? It can take me through the world of movies and novels that exist in the real world."
When Zhao Zhonggang came back to his senses, he was wondering which world this world was. The phone was glowing with fluorescence, and when he looked over, he saw that the previous city map was distorted and reorganized, replaced by a new road map marked with the distance of kilometers, but no introduction to the relevant city.
New map?
When he looked up, he looked around and found that the new map showed the current traffic conditions of the city's streets.
At the same time, he also saw that in the upper right corner of the map, seven hundred meters in front of the street, there was a small glowing dot showing the word "Gift Pack".
"This is the package? I really sent it.."
Zhao Zhong held his mobile phone while looking at the stone.
He didn't have any fear now, only a deep curiosity and excitement to get a strange thing!
After all.
Novels and movies and the like, he didn't watch less when he was going to school, working, and being a truck driver, how could he not know that he was now a treasure who had obtained the legendary artifact and traveled through various worlds.
"I just don't know if this system is a product of science and technology or a product of fantasy."
Zhao Zhong was excited, and after experiencing these deeds, he now also believes that there are really bizarre things in the world, which cannot be explained by science.
But then when he thought of his current situation and his parents at home, he still shook his head, and after dispersing some joy, he pointed at the voice call and asked some substantive questions.
"How do I go back? Also, my car.."
He looked at his phone, waiting for an answer from the unnamed system.
But when the words fell, he waited for a long time, and after shaking his phone, there was nothing on it, and it was still a map of urban roads.
"Do you need stones?"
Zhao Zhong thought about it and put the stone next to his phone.
Sure enough, in an instant, the map disappeared, and a line of handwriting was displayed on the phone.
[Unlock the corresponding area to return]
The handwriting appeared and disappeared, replaced by a map of the road just now.
Today, however, the map is much more zoomed in, with many gray areas looming over his city.
"Unlock the area, these gray cities?"
Zhao Zhong flicked the map, and after moving his perspective to the side of those cities, he saw that the nearest gray city was five hundred kilometers away.
When he zoomed in, those areas also looked hazy, and there were no city roads.
Figuratively speaking, these shades of gray are like the fog of war in the game, covering the whereabouts of these "cities".
After Zhao Zhong observed it, when he saw that he couldn't see anything clearly, he put these aside first.
Then, he raised his head, looked left and right, and when he saw that no one was paying attention to him, he dialed the map to his location, and followed the coordinates above, and walked towards the street where he was going.
"Being in a strange world, with no roots and no roots, it's too early to say this. It's better to do the right thing first, get the gift bag, and see if there is any equipment and exercises in it, after all, this is the key to settling down and establishing a life."
Zhao Zhong walked on the road, thinking, and gradually approaching the target according to the instructions on the map.
And the time in the city, perhaps the same as in the real world, is now four or five o'clock in the evening, and the sun is setting.
In particular, when Zhao Zhong took the stone and his mobile phone and asked about the system again, he also knew for sure that when he entered other worlds, other worlds would also start according to the time of the real world.
For example, if he enters this world at four o'clock, then this world also begins at four o'clock.
But there is also an important point, which is that when he is in other worlds, time in the real world is still.
"The static function is good, I haven't seen you for a few months, and my family went to the police."
Walking on the road after the rain, Zhao Zhong held his mobile phone, and when he saw that it was nearly five o'clock, there were gradually more office workers on the road. Back and forth was the sound of the brakes of the tram and the sound of the car's engine.
"Didi"
A car honked its horn and passed past Zhao Zhong, almost splashing him with muddy water.
When Zhao Zhong saw it, he didn't care, just because with the way, the seven-hundred-meter distance had already been completed.
When he passed by the door of a small department store, his eyes were already attracted by the goods in front of the store, a package placed next to a fruit basket.
