Chapter 31 Home

After a few days of navigating the void, the starry sky finally changed, and land loomed in the distance. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

In this unprecedented long-distance voyage, Qianye truly knew the horror of the Void. In the seemingly empty void, Force storms appear from time to time, almost without warning. If caught in the core of the storm, a float boat that has not undergone special reinforcement may even be torn apart by the storm.

In addition, there are tiny meteorites floating in the void, some of them as fast as artillery shells, which, if hit, leave a crater in the armor plate.

In the end, the greatest threat to the Void is not the pirates, but the Void Beasts. It's okay to encounter by chance, but if you accidentally break into the lair of a strange beast, you will die. However, Red Pipe does have some real skills, and although the route he chose was tortuous, he did not encounter a Void Beast once, and arrived at a neutral place safely.

The Neutral Lands may sound like a continent, but they are actually made up of thousands of large and small land masses, the largest of which are no more than the floating lands that Thousand Nights once fought.

It's so far away from other continents that it's like an abandoned corner of the world. Countless large and small land masses orbit in extremely complex trajectories and revolve around the sun. It has been speculated that the Neutral Lands did not form naturally, but that a planet or continent broke up much earlier before the fall of the Void Valley Star, forming the prototype of the Neutral Lands. However, this speculation can only be speculation, and there is no way to confirm it.

Because it is very far away from the continents in the central area, the climate is very strong, and the cold and heat changes greatly, and there will be natural disasters from time to time. Many of the landmasses are unruly and unsuitable for the Terrans, even the most adaptable spiders.

Because it is so remote and difficult to survive, neither the Empire nor the Eternal Night has shown any interest in this place for thousands of years. But for those who cannot fit in either camp, this is the only kingdom of heaven. In the beginning, it was the strongest people who made it alive, and the strongest people were often the most vicious. After a long time, this place has become a neutral place where fish and dragons are mixed, and everything is just to survive.

Due to the rampant storms and the complex trajectory of the land, it is quite dangerous to navigate between the landblocks, and only a seasoned captain with years of experience can navigate through the landmass. Red pipes happen to be one of them. He chose a medium-sized land mass, one of the largest ports in the entire Neutral Lands, and a preferred transit point for newcomers. Of course, it's a transit point for the Terrans.

The old float boat slowly docked on the dock, and a group of muscular and ragged men rushed over and surrounded the hatch of the floatboat.

The red pipe appeared at the hatch, waved his hand, and shouted: "Go away, there is no cargo this time, only a few people are enough." ”

As soon as he heard his words, the people on the dock immediately dispersed, and only then did those who were hiding behind be able to stand in front. They were all old people and children, and occasionally a few middle-aged people, who were also skinny and looked sick.

Thousand Nights and Night Hitomi didn't have any luggage, and the only boxes were filled with cold animal meat. But the old man's 'master' brought five large boxes, all of which were very heavy. Qianye tied the three boxes together and carried them herself, and ordered four or five people to carry the rest.

After walking through the long pier, Red Pipe walked into a three-story brick house on the pier with Qianye. This is the grandest building in the entire dock, the hall was originally very spacious, but it was crowded with people, and the noise and the smell of sweat and body odor came to the face, making Qianye frown. The night pupil next to him was prescient and closed his perception in advance.

The bearded captain took the lead and headed for the counter at the end of the hall. When someone stands in the way, he whips him or kicks him with his foot. As soon as the beaten people saw the crimson pipe in the captain's mouth, most of them honestly hid to the side, and did not even dare to say a word. Only a fierce man with a scar on his face glared fiercely at the captain.

Red Pipe sneered, pointed at the scarred man, and made a throat-slitting motion. The people around him immediately applauded, but the scarred man's face looked a little ugly.

"What does this mean?" asked Chiya to a person next to her.

The man glanced at Qianye and said disdainfully, "New here, right? You'll find out in a while." This is an invitation to a decisive battle, if you don't accept it, you will fight, and life and death will depend on the sky. If you don't dare to fight, get out of the way, don't talk too much!"

Qianye was stunned, but he didn't expect that the neutral place pursued the naked law of the supremacy of the strong, without any concealment.

The man with the scar still didn't dare to confront the red pipe and turned to leave. A sigh of disappointment suddenly rang out all around.

As soon as the scarred man left, the people in the hall automatically gave way to a way. Countless eyes fell on Qianye and the others, and they all had bad intentions.

Smoothly came to the counter, the red pipe tossed a gold coin on the counter, and said, "Register these friends." ”

Behind the counter was a handsome-looking young man, who quickly put away the gold coins, picked up a pen and paper, and asked the names of Qianye, Yatong, and the old man. Qianye and Yetong both casually reported their names, while the old man reported Cui Yuanhai. Qianye was a little surprised, but he didn't expect him to report his real name.

The old man seemed to know Qianye's thoughts, smiled, and said, "I'm too old to run anymore, and after I get here, I don't want to go anywhere else." ”

The young man took out three plates made of steel, engraved the names of the three on them, threw them to Qianye, and said, "This is your identification, and it is also the proof of entry and exit from the neutral place. Of course, it doesn't do much other than that. If you don't want to disclose your identity, you can grab a few pieces, and no one will care. In this hellish place, as long as something is in your hands, it's yours. ”

He took out another copperplate, put it on the counter, and said, "If you want to survive here, you have to earn it yourself and grab it." This is a ticket to the East Wilderness, and you can get a room on the ship, barely able to stuff you and your things. If you want better, you have to add money. There is a shortage of manpower in the Eastern Wilderness, so good conditions have been offered, as long as you are willing to go, you can get a piece of land. If it's too small, you can ask for a few more, but you may die quickly. ”

Thousand Nights didn't know anything about neutral places, but for him, it was the same everywhere he went. So he reached for the copperplate, but the young man smiled playfully, buckled the copperplate under his palm, and did not let go.

Qianye thought about it, understood a little, and asked, "How much do you need?"

The young man smiled brightly and said, "Clever! I like to talk to smart people." Fifty gold coins, this ticket is yours. ”

In the Neutral Lands, multiple currencies can be used at the same time, including Imperial Gold and Silver Coins, Sombra, Eternal Night Gold and Silver Coins, Blood Crystals, and Rubik's Cubes. Qianye took out a money bag, flipped it in his hand, handed it over, and said, "Forty-seven, only so many." ”

The young man snatched the money bag, then stuffed the copper plate into Qianye's hand, smiled, and said continuously: "Enough, enough!"

Qianye knew that she had paid too much, but when she first arrived, it was inevitable that she would suffer a loss, so she didn't care. After asking where the float boat docked, Qianye walked towards the pier with the others. The red pipe rested against the counter and didn't move. He sent Senya here to complete the deal.

When Qianye left the hall, the smile on the young man's face disappeared, and a middle-aged man next to him walked over, looked at the direction in which Qianye disappeared, and said, "A guy who is only level eight, can he be sent to that place?"

The young man looked at the red pipe and said, "Didn't you say that he hid his strength, how much did he hide?"

Red Pipe didn't answer the question, took two deep puffs of the pipe, and said, "That's not important." Wouldn't it be nice if he hid enough to get some trouble over there? The Wolf King wasn't that easy to deal with. ”

The young man showed a deep feeling that was not commensurate with his age, and said, "You are still so insidious. Maybe next time I have to reconsider my cooperation with you. ”

Red Pipe pointed to the money bag and said, "You've made a lot of money this time, haven't you?"

The young man flipped through his money bag and said slowly, "But I suddenly felt that this money was a little hot. ”

At the other end of the dock area, Qianye finally found her boat. It was an older-looking floatship, with many steam pipes exposed and two huge chimneys billowing smoke. The huge steam engine barely fitted into the hull, and you can imagine how much space was left for people.

Even in the eternal night, such an ancient float boat could not be seen.

Qianye handed over the copperplate ticket and was allowed to board the ship. The cabins in the ship were unsurprisingly cramped, and after putting a few boxes down, a few people could only stand. Little Zhu Ji doesn't care, she can sleep in any position, even if she hangs upside down. So she jumped straight to the top of the cabin, hung on it, and fell into a deep sleep. The old man sat down on the box, and Chiya and Yatomi simply went to the deck, ready to spend the journey there.

Soon it was time to leave, and the float roared, struggling to leave the dock and sail into the distance.

Even the voyage between the landmasses took two full days to reach the destination. This is an exceptionally large land mass, and it is also on the edge of neutrals. Looking from the void, Thousand Nights estimated that it should be about the same size as the floating land, or even larger.

During the journey, Qianye wanted to ask about the Eastern Wilderness, but he didn't expect that from the captain to the crew, everyone was like avoiding snakes and scorpions, and they didn't want to say a word more, even if Qianye handed over two gold coins, they were stuffed back.

However, Qianye still asked some basic information, most of the eastern wilderness is occupied by large lakes, only about a quarter of the land, and the rest is water. This lake is so huge, thousands of kilometers longitudinal and horizontal, it can be called the sea, so the Eastern Wilderness is also called the East China Sea.

As the old float approached the landmass, Thousand Nights and Night Hitomi stood at the bow of the ship, looking at the mysterious and faintly dangerous land. The night pupil suddenly exhaled lightly and leaned on the shoulder of the thousand nights.

"What's wrong?"

The night pupil looked at the approaching huge landmass, the magnificent deep sea, and said, "I suddenly feel that our home should be here. ”

Qianye hugged her tightly and said, "Okay, then this is our home!"

ps: It's freezing and it should be added.
