Chapter 3, Another World
Dennis didn't expect the mysterious young man to understand his own words, the language of Elend's Southern 6 had changed several times over the millennia, and sometimes there were big differences between the languages of the two neighboring countries - he just wanted the young man to understand what he meant, and not hurt the unfortunate man in his hands.
Zhang Yi was silent for a moment, and replied in the same Tran language: "They wanted to kill me just now, I was just forced to defend myself." ”
There was a startling sound all around, standing next to him and not speaking, Susan, who had been looking at Zhang Yi, also blinked, she actually thought the same as her uncle.
This mysterious young man actually knew Portland and had a very pure accent.
"Maybe it's a misunderstanding, if we really wanted to kill you, we could have done it while you're unconscious."
Dennis breathed a sigh of relief that he was able to communicate, which meant that things were going to get better, but fortunately no one was hurt, and the regimental commander continued: "But we didn't hurt you, and we got you back, if you can, please let go of my men, and we may be able to talk about it." ”
Zhang Yi hesitated, his biggest guarantee now is the prisoner in his hand, if he hands it over, he can't guarantee that this group of people will not turn their faces immediately.
But he wasn't sure he could escape from the crowd unharmed, and the middle-aged man was right, if they wanted to hurt themselves, they could do so while they were unconscious.
"Yes, I don't have any ill will."
In the end, Zhang Yi still chose to compromise and let go of the mercenary's hand, but the other hand was still holding the iron sword.
The mercenary named Berwick regained his freedom and crawled into his companions, scared and had a terrible feeling of being held to his neck.
Soon, Zhang Yi returned to the tent.
And in front of him, sat the gray-headed middle-aged man and the girl who had been following him, and the group of mercenaries were crowded outside the tent, a pair of extremely curious eyes made Zhang Yi uncomfortable, he suddenly remembered that when he went to the zoo to watch the giant pandas before, he should have used this kind of look.
The eyes of the old man and the young man in front of him also made Zhang Yi feel very uncomfortable, he coughed lightly, trying to regain the feeling of negotiating with a certain guild several times.
Rubbing his eyebrows with his hand, Zhang Yi looked uncomfortable, and said in a low voice: "I'm sorry two of you, my brain is very messed up now, and I can't remember many things clearly, can I ask before the conversation starts, where is this?" ”
The two leaders of the Gray Dove Mercenary Regiment obviously haven't experienced much negotiation, and they don't have any intention of Zhang Yi to take the initiative in the conversation, the uncle and nephew glanced at each other, and the girl replied: "This is the southern border of the Gaston Kingdom, and we are now in the Thorny Forest. ”
Zhang Yi turned his head to look over, and the girl in front of him had a long dark brown hair, tied behind her head with a ponytail draped over her left shoulder, her skin was fair, her appearance was beautiful, and she was wearing a half-length leather armor with a gray cotton shirt inside.
Her appearance looks heroic, calm and capable, but her age is definitely not more than twenty years old, and the mercenaries outside have more love and awe in their eyes when they look at the girl than when they look at the middle-aged man.
It can be seen that the voice of a girl may be higher than that of a middle-aged man.
"Kingdom of Gaston, ...... of the Spiky Forest"
Zhang Yi repeated these two nouns in a low voice, his heartbeat gradually accelerated, no wonder he had a very familiar feeling when he looked at the mountains and dense forests in the distance just now, it turned out to be the famous 3O-level copy Shadow Mountain Range, and the Gaston Kingdom is also a familiar name, it is located in Elend's Southern Great 6, and it is one of the three powerful kingdoms in the Breath of Nature Alliance.
Many players who choose Nature's Breath faction tend to start with the Spike Forest as their first map.
So, you're still in the game?
This thought made Zhang Yi subconsciously clench his fist, and his fingertips immediately pierced into his palm, and the slightly painful touch made his heart half cool - there is no such realistic touch in the game, although the game "Divine Fire" has opened up the virtual technology of five senses simulation, but if you carefully distinguish it, the game and reality can still be distinguished.
And the most obvious of these is pain, in the game, pain is only a slight paralyzing feeling, even if it is disemboweled, it will not affect the player's real pain nerves.
But now, Zhang Yi felt that he was completely like in reality, he looked down at the palm of his hand, whether it was the hidden blood vessels under the skin, or the lines on the skin, they were all very clear, and the subtle scenes and movements could also be perfectly and clearly reflected in the retina.
It's reality, not a game.
Zhang Yi's heart kept sinking, and he realized that he might have encountered something very terrible - he died in the game, but instead of resurrecting or going offline, he came to a world exactly the same as "Shenhuo".
"So, who are you? Why am I with you? ”
Zhang Yi asked, his head was already in a mess at this time, and his voice began to become extremely dry.
"We are the Grey Dove Mercenary Regiment."
This time the person who answered was the middle-aged man, his head was gray, there were already a lot of crow's feet at the corners of his eyes, and his expression was haggard that could not be concealed, it could be seen that his age was not very old, but life was not satisfactory, he said: "I am the head of the regiment, Dennis, this is my niece Susan, we are ...... Well, you are found in an ancient tomb. ”
Speaking of this, the expression on Dennis's face became embarrassed, as the head of the group, he finally had to save face, and then he remembered that the person in front of him was the owner of the ancient tomb, and they were shameless and immoral gravediggers.
No one wanted to be dug up after they died, and of course, the young man in front of him didn't look dead, but that wasn't a reason for the gravediggers to be forgiven, and he regretted the conversation a little now.
"Tombs? You ......"
Zhang Yi's eyes widened, he had expected many situations, but he just didn't expect it to be revealed in the ancient tomb, could it be that he really died once?
"Yes, we're gravediggers now, but with occasional cameos. When we dug you out, and now that you are alive, we took you with us. Maybe you want to scold us right now, that's fine, but at least we saved your life, or you'd be suffocated in the sarcophagus. ”
Susan took over the topic, the niece obviously had more courage to accept the blame than her uncle, but when she said this, her face still showed some redness that was difficult to hide, and at this time the girl finally reacted, from the beginning of this conversation, the two were led by Zhang Yi's nose.
"Okay, we can put this matter aside for now, now it's time for us to ask you, who are you?" Susan asked, glaring.
Zhang Yi smiled bitterly, it was a real bitter smile.
No matter who he is, he can't be calm when he encounters this kind of thing, and his family, friends, and all his friends in the other world are gone.
He even had the idea of venting it violently, but this thought was suppressed by reason, and he didn't dare to show hysterical feelings in front of this group of people.
"My name is ......" Zhang Yi thought about it, and still said his name in the game: "Erwin, my name is Erwin." Sidias, Wadi Ferran, I remember that I was a mercenary like you, but I died on the battlefield......"
"You don't look like a Wadi Ferran." Susan interrupted him suddenly, and her eyes became stern for a moment.
Zhang Yi was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that his role in "Divine Fire" was indeed Wadi Ferran, but not now, but he did not panic at all, but replied in a calm voice: "It's true, but I grew up in Wadi Ferran since I was a child." ”
Seeing that the two of them still didn't seem to believe it, Zhang Yi casually said something about Wadi Ferran's style and customs. Wadi Ferran is also a large 6 human country in the south, not too far from Gaston. And in the game, he has been in that country for seven or eight years, and this kind of thing will naturally come out of his mouth.
After listening to Zhang Yi's story, Dennis and Susan already believed it a little, but they still maintained the most basic vigilance, after all, a living person who came out of the ancient tomb was too suspicious no matter how you looked at it.
"In which war did you die? How could they be buried in the Spike Forest? Susan asked the mercenaries the most curious question, and perhaps added a question about how he survived.
"I don't know very well, maybe my comrades-in-arms buried me here......" Zhang Yi wanted to use amnesia to prevaricate the past, but he suddenly remembered another thing, when the darkness invaded, the Gaston Kingdom was also one of the frontal battlefields, could it be that the Void Demon had not invaded yet?
He couldn't help but ask urgently, "Wait, what time is it?" I mean, it's been a few years since the Elende Peace. ”
"It seems to be the ninth hundred and fifty-seventh year of the Peace Calendar...... Or is it fifty-eight years? Susan frowned, she couldn't remember the time.
"Fifty-eight years." Dennis reminded from the side.
"Nine Hundred and Fifty-Eight Years ......"
Zhang Yi couldn't help but rub his eyebrows again, fifty-eight years, then it should be the time period of hypocrisy and peace in the first chapter of the game version of "Divine Fire", there are still several years before the prologue of the war in the second chapter, and at least nearly ten years before the dark invasion in the third chapter.
"It's okay......"
Zhang Yi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, if it was in the game, then he naturally hoped that the rhythm of the game would be more exciting and compact, but if the game became a reality, then he, an ordinary person in the real world, naturally did not want to encounter danger and war.
War is no joke.
