Chapter 12: Set Sail
The giant eagle pierced the sky like an arrow, and with the sound of air currents passing by, it quickly headed for the huge airship not far away. Although there was a reduction in magic, the speed of the giant eagle's wind wings was too fast, and the huge wind pressure made it difficult for Ke Zhou to gasp for breath.
Xiao Liu seemed to be a little lazy to consider Ke Zhou's feelings, he just urged Feng Yi to be faster, and Feng Yi also clearly felt the chaos in Xiao Liu's heart, constantly improving on the basis of the original speed. After a while, I saw a huge city in the distance, and a huge balloon airship docked next to a tall tower at the edge of the city.
"It's here. ”
The giant eagle, which was still flying at high speed a second ago, suddenly slowed down, and the huge inertia made Ke Zhou almost thrown out. But with the help of magic, he was still pressed on the back of the giant eagle after all, but the riding experience was really not very friendly, which made Ke Zhou a little disgusted.
People come and go under the tower, and this scene is even more than the grand occasion of the palace before. Or it is a relatively poor family, or a relatively wealthy aristocrat, or there are students in school uniforms, all busy in the neighborhood. The clamour, the iron, the recruitment of the squads, and even the newsboys who sell newspapers, it is like a small bazaar.
The giant eagle has disappeared in place, presumably going back to recuperate. Xiao Liu took Ke Zhou through the crowd and walked into the very bottom of the tower, which looked more crowded than the outside, after all, the entrance and exit were not large, but there was a flow of people far beyond its capacity. Ke Zhou actually had the feeling of squeezing the subway...... No, even the subway is not so crowded, and people are like waves, surging outward in waves.
"So you hardly have to guard against thieves...... There is more or less a storage space. Ke Zhou squeezed through the crowd and complained to Bai Yu. The people around him made it easy for him to get separated from Xiao Liu, but fortunately, Bai Yu gave him guidance so that he would not fall behind.
Bai Yu looked at Ke Zhou and chuckled twice. "Yes, magic is a thing that is all over everyone's life, and even the most gifted magicians will have a small storage space of their own. It seemed to be a little unable to bear the crowding, and flew to the top of the room, continuing to guide Ke Zhou.
"Next, go to the less crowded place on the left, where the boss is already waiting for you. ”
Following Bai Yu's direction, Ke Zhou struggled to push through the crowd and moved towards a relatively sparsely populated place. Soon, a passage appeared in front of him, and Xiao Liu had already been waiting there for a long time with a purple sign.
Xiao ...... Teacher, this is ......" Ke Zhou wanted to call out Xiao Liu's name, but suddenly remembered what Xiao Liu said before, so he changed his name to the teacher. He was very surprised that such a crowded place would have such a special passage, and at the same time he was curious about what Xiao Liu was holding in his hand.
Xiao Liu didn't speak, just waved his hand and motioned for Ke Zhou to follow. He held the little purple sign all the way, and with almost no pause, he made his way up the stairs that no one was in. After walking a few floors, I came to a huge balloon airship. When they walked into the small private room in the airship, and waited until the waiter left, Xiao Liu finally spoke.
"Do you have any questions about this card...... It's just a very simple identity card, a card of the Mercenary Guild. Different colors represent different levels, such as from low to high white, green, blue, purple, red and yellow, the purple level is located in the fourth level, which is already not a low level, as long as there is this brand, it can basically have a better treatment in most places. ”
Xiao Liu said, throwing this brand into the storage space, this move inevitably made Ke Zhou's heart itch again, but there is nothing to do, if you can't use magic, you can't use it, this kind of storage space is estimated that he will never have it in his life.
"White-green-blue-purple-red-yellow...... It feels like the level of equipment in the game of our world. Ke Zhou sat in this small private room, looking at the scenery outside the window, and complained boringly. In fact, this thing doesn't seem to be very similar to a train now, but more like an airplane in this world. It's just that this "plane" is much slower than theirs.
"Game?equipment?level?"
Xiao Liu's eyes suddenly flashed a little light, after all, he was a scholar, and he would always be very interested in things from another world. Especially after hearing from Ke Zhou's mouth that three things that were completely unrelated appeared in a sentence, he felt like he had opened the door to a new world, and kept asking Ke Zhou.
Under Xiao Liu's constant questioning, Ke Zhou also began to explain the various games in their world, from the simplest board games, playing cards, running groups, to complex large-scale games, stand-alone games, and various games with different world backgrounds. Not to mention the pictures, but also to describe these games that have been loved by countless people. In Xiao Liu's eyes, these things were like a new world, and he listened very carefully, and sometimes he would smile when he talked about some interesting game modes or game content.
Slowly, Xiao Liu's attitude also began to change, as if he was gradually escaping from the serious and sad feelings before. In other words, he may have been looking for such an opportunity for a long time, an opportunity to restore himself to his daily mood.
It was difficult for him to understand things like computers and monitors, but under Ke Zhou's explanation, he probably understood that these were like magic props, man-made objects that looked like magic. I also realized that this could be a huge market, and if the "game" that Ke Zhou said could be brought to this world, the world might also have unprecedented changes.
Before you know it, it's time for the airship to set off. Ke Zhou also felt that his mouth was dry, and finally he couldn't speak, and drank the drink sent in. Xiao Liu took out his pen and some common magic props, and began to design a "game console" composed of very cheap magic props on the spot.
The airship slowly rose as if it were a helicopter taking off. Through the window, you can also hear the noisy crowd below. At this moment, Ke Zhou also realized again that he had really come to another world, and had already experienced an attack that others might not experience in their lifetime, and survived.
Speaking of which, Xiao Liu...... Teacher?"
"Just call me Xiao Liu in private. Xiao Liu didn't seem to care much about the salutation, and replied casually.
After Ke Zhou heard this, he nodded slightly and continued to ask, "What is the beast tide that we are going to solve?"
This question seemed to be asked to Xiao Liu's heart, and the pen in his hand and the magic props he was assembling slowly stopped. A crystal ball slowly rolls out of his storage space, clearly written "Genesis 255, 4, 2". Xiao Liu lightly tapped the crystal ball, and a faint blue light appeared on the crystal ball, and at the same time, some images began to appear on it:
It was originally a piece of floor, and it looked fairly new, but it only lasted for a few seconds, and a few blood stains were splattered all over the ground in an instant. At the same time appeared the shadow of a monster, which appeared to pass through the range of the crystal ball with a hand in its hand.
Immediately afterward, a large number of black shadows passed through the scene. Although he could only see the shadows on the ground, he also understood how many monsters had passed by here, and more and more blood on the ground seemed to prove what had happened.
For a long time, there was no sound.
Just when Ke Zhou thought that the contents of the crystal ball had ended, the situation inside suddenly changed: the crystal ball seemed to have been picked up by a boy, and it could be seen from above that the little boy had a broken arm, his face was covered with blood, and there were several deep scratches. Behind him were demolished villages and blood-stained ground.
"Boom"
A loud explosion was heard suddenly, but not from the crystal ball. With this sound, the entire airship shook violently a few times, and the crystal ball on the table was instantly absorbed into the space by Xiao Liu, and Ke Zhou was staggered by these shakes.
Before he could react, a radio-like voice was heard echoing throughout the airship:
"Yes, you guessed that right, now the airship has been hijacked. But we're not going to rob you of your money, let alone your life, we just want to find someone named Beibei. I don't know, but you've got ten minutes to get her to the control room on the third floor, and if she doesn't show up, I don't mind having the whole airship bury her. ”
"By the way, there's nine minutes and thirty seconds left, and it's over. ”
