Chapter 136: Over the Mountains

The three of them walked in the mountain forest, the silver-white moonlight shining through the leaves between the trees, and the mottled marks crossed the three of them, as if they were wearing a constantly changing silver and black clothes.

Aside from Roger's soft words, there was only the creaking of feet on fallen leaves and dead branches.

Although the situation is urgent now, listening to Roger talk about his mental journey under the moonlight, Xiao Chen strangely felt a sense of calm.

Roger said: "I know what your world is like, compared to here, it is like a place of gods who praise the gods, well, according to your words, it is a place like heaven." ”

Xiao Chen said: "What's the matter, there are a lot of bad things." Not to mention that there is always a place where there is a war every day, and it has never been peaceful. It seems that as long as it is human, it is the same in every world. ”

Roger turned around and said, "But at least in the place where you came, most people can live and die normally, right?"

"That's too low. Xiao Chen said.

Roger glanced at the elven sword in Xiao Chen's hand and said, "This is heaven for me. ”

Xiao Chen followed his gaze and glanced at the sword in his hand, there seemed to be a hint of red in the silver reflection, which made him immediately think of the soldier whose throat was cut by him. Is this the "normal" life of people here?

"Your country hasn't been at war for a few decades since the last century taught the surrounding countries a lesson, right?" Roger added.

"You even know this, they showed you the details of that world?" Xiao Chen asked in surprise.

"Isn't it strange? I always say it when I talk about the history of war in military schools. Do you think that the affairs of that world should be kept secret from us?" Evelyn interjected.

Xiao Chen said: "No, your Xiao Chen didn't tell me about this, I thought they would be worried about their identity being exposed, and hide their origins." ”

"It's not a good choice. So many people, so many things, and all sorts of unheard-of technologies and products have suddenly appeared on this continent, and anyone who is not a fool will suspect that you are from another world. You can't be trusted by others by being secretive. Evelyn said.

Roger said: "There is no harm in saying it, does it matter where you come from? The people of the empire and the kingdom are all born and raised on this continent, across a mountain range, and they have not fought wars for hundreds of years? If you count the countries and dynasties of the past, it is thousands of years of wars between the south and the north." What if you come? Whether or not there will be a war with you depends on political ideas, differences in interests and beliefs, not on where you come from. ”

"Yes. Xiao Chen had to admit this truth.

Roger said: "If we want to understand your ideas and concepts, and integrate with you, we can't do it without understanding you from the roots, right? I don't know your history, how do we know where your ideas and ideas come from? I don't know your past, how do you know the experience you have accumulated in the past and the setbacks you have encountered?"

"They should be gradually opening up the relevant information, right?" Xiao Chen asked.

"Hmm. As long as you reach a certain level within the system, you can see a lot of things accordingly. You have a lot of books and materials on science, art, history, or philosophy, which are open to people like me or Evelyn. I've even watched a lot of movies, by the way, my favorite book is "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", but I can't read the original version, I have only watched the children's version. ”

Evelyn said: "I like the poetry of Li Bai and Tagore, although I can't understand all of them, but I can appreciate the beauty. I don't know why, but your humans there are better at creating than humans here, and there are many works that can be compared to the works of our elven kingdom. ”

Xiao Chen didn't say a word to them, and before he knew it, he walked out of the mountain forest, and he suddenly felt a light in front of him, and what appeared in front of him was a level like a dam, and it exuded a milky white light in the night. Even though there was blood in the wind, this level still gave Xiao Chen a shocking beauty on this killing night.

Rao is that as a modern person, he is used to seeing huge buildings, and he still sighs in front of this level: "This is Heimu Pass, it is indeed majestic." ”

"But it's already changing. Roger said in a deep voice.

"I don't know what happened to the others. Evelyn said worriedly.

"It looks like it's retreating, and if we fight to the death, it shouldn't be so calm now. Roger analyzed, "It's impossible for them to not be able to support the opening of Suero's teleportation array, if Suero's Master Gabriel can lead the team to come, it should be a street battle in the city now, not the Imperial people cleaning the battlefield." ”

"I don't know how it came to be. Evelyn felt sorry.

"A spy or a traitor, there must be one of the two. If Heimu Pass was directly defeated by this army, it would have been an empire long ago. Someone must have opened the gates from the inside. Roger said.

The three of them stood in the shadow of two large trees to avoid being seen. From their side, the door below the level was open, and there were many figures shaking both close and closed. On the main road leading from Heimu Pass to the camp, there were constantly galloping horses or convoys going back and forth, passing information or transporting supplies.

"What are these people doing in the middle of the night?" Xiao Chen asked.

"To prepare, Emperor Alfred must be mobilizing the legions in the rear to defend the checkpoint, Blackwood Pass is a thought for the empire for hundreds of years, and he will definitely send a large army to guard it and prevent it from falling into our hands again. Roger stepped back into the woods. "We need to get out of here as soon as possible, I guess the army of the big battalion will be stationed at Heimu Pass tonight. ”

Evelyn said, "How do we get there?"

Roger took out a contour map from his waist pocket, "According to our previous detection, the most reasonable route is to turn over the mountain on the east side of Kuroki Pass, you see that there is a valley here, it should be much easier to walk, but there may be magical beasts in the deep mountains, we must be ready for battle." ”

"Warcraft, is it the kind of powerful creature like a fire-breathing dragon or an electrically discharging thunderbird?" Xiao Chen said curiously.

Roger couldn't help but laugh: "No, the most likely thing you will encounter is a wild boar that breathes fire or a lizard that discharges." This is not the time of mythology. ”

"Alas, it turns out that the situation of animal extinction in the two worlds is about the same. Sure enough, humans are still humans. Xiao Chen sighed.

Roger asked, "Crossing this mountain, if you fly, you can do it in half a day, but if you walk from the ground, even those of us who have mastered the fighting spirit may take two days." Can you hold on?"

"How do you know if you don't try?" Xiao Chen walked in the direction drawn on the map first.

Evelyn glanced at Roger and whispered, "Sure enough, he's still him." ”
