"Can we really get out of this wilderness? Pen~Fun~Ge www.biquge.info Do we really have a chance to complete our tasks? "This is a message found in the interior of one of each mud house during the inspection of each of the mud houses. The messages were carved into the walls of the house, and the notes were crooked and messy, not like the handwriting of a normal adult, but more like the random graffiti of a madman. However, the content of the message still retains reason, probably just that the person who left the message has been unable to control the irritability and restlessness in his heart, and a way to vent his emotions is not for anyone to read, just for himself.
"We can't get out, we can't get out. "I can't stand it anymore, I'm going back. "Why are they still going on?" "Won't they doubt their decision?" "Are we really going all the way forward?" "We must have gone wrong, and we must have been teleported back to square one." "Why is this happening, why can't you get out. "Isn't it the first time they've come?" "Why are you so sure, why don't you hesitate at all, why are you so skilled?" "Ahhh β
Messy handwriting, lines and rows carved into the sloping walls, through the handwriting, one can almost see the confused and desperate eyes of someone forty years ago. An adventurous team, members can choose whether to follow the leader before departure, and they can also argue with each other as much as they want when making plans, these are no problem, but once the adventure begins, once the plan is determined, then everyone must try their best to obey the leader's orders, which is the most basic condition for surviving in a dangerous environment. Therefore, during the day, this confusion and despair are hidden in the bottom of the heart because of the prestige of the two leaders, but when they are alone at night, despair is like a ferocious python, tightly wrapped around the hearts of the warriors, tighter and tighter, and there is no respite.
"I finally know why the elves named this place the Bone Burial in the first place. Lina looked at the edge of the grassland that was getting closer and closer in the distance, remembered these whispers she had seen in the camp not long ago, and said with a relaxed breath: "If people who don't know this place rush in and are not determined, I am afraid that this place will really become a place for them to bury their bones, no matter how well they have prepared before." Tsk, the place where bones are buried, it's really a very apt name. β
In fact, as Lina said, this area seems normal, but it hides a lot of danger, even in the Tertiary Period, when it was not a forbidden place for living beings, and there was no one who twisted the soul, because this danger was not caused by foreign objects, but by the environment in which space debris was piled up itself. Even if all the space debris is spread out, there are only tens of thousands of square kilometers here, which is not particularly large for adventurers who can go here, if it is like the expedition team forty years ago, it has been walking in the direction of the goal, and it takes four or five days to get out of here intact, it seems that it can be regarded as easy and simple, but the premise of this simplicity and ease is that you must always go towards a goal, without any hesitation.
It's impossible for someone who enters here for the first time not to notice the anomaly of the environment, but unless you know exactly where each space debris overlaps, there's no solution to it, and the only way is to keep going. However, it is not so easy to go all the way in this area, and the less determined or suspicious the person, the more impossible it is to do so. When you take the last step, you can still see the road behind you, but when you step out of the next step, it becomes a wilderness, with nothing but grass and wildflowers, and even the footprints left before have disappeared, as if you just appeared in your current position abruptly, this contrast is not something that everyone can bear, or rather, it is impossible for most people not to bear it, and it is difficult for people not to have doubts about their decisions, and the more you get to the end of the journey, the closer you get to the edge of the fragment area, the more obvious the suspicion becomesγ It is not difficult to imagine that after walking through the wilderness and seeing the edge of the lawn in front of you, you have already seen the hope of leaving, but after walking a few more steps, there is a grassland of dozens of kilometers in front of you, and it has become a situation where there is still nothing at the end of the field of visionγ However, once the defense line of the first will is broken, once it begins to change direction, then the self-doubt will become more and more serious, and the frequency of changing direction will become more and more frequent, and the only result in the end is to keep walking between space debris, never finding a way out, even if they see that this boundary may be only a few hundred meters away from them, they will no longer believe their eyes, and eventually fall down from hunger and exhaustion only a few hundred meters away from hope.
"I doubt how many forerunners have fallen here, dying of hunger and thirst, dying of fatigue, or even dying of mutual cannibalism after the collapse of trust?" Freya speculated maliciously, Her Royal Highness's grasp of human nature made her fully imagine the process of those people from firmness to doubt, from trust to suspicion, and with a slightly mocking smile on her face like a poet who has seen through the world, she said with an aria: "Doubt, wisdom is born because of you, doubt, life is died because of you." β
"Don't use Marek's exclamation here, that's not appropriate. Catherine glanced back at Her Royal Highness the Princess, who was sighing: "That gray philosopher sighed at the suspicion between people, which is completely different from the situation here. Moreover, don't forget that four years after he lamented, he killed his wife and committed suicide because he suspected that his wife was in love with someone else, but it turned out that his suspicion was only due to a misunderstanding, and it was not a fact at all, and it must be said that this is the greatest irony. But yes, think about it, if it weren't for Eva's guidance, would we be able to stick to our judgment all the way through the grassland to the border? β
"It's really hard. Her Royal Highness did not hide her thoughts: "But the problem is that after we find out the problem, our first choice is to turn back and leave the wasteland to find another way out, so your question is not valid." β
"That's because now that the scope of the Forbidden Land has expanded, there are other ways out even if they bypass this grassland, but this was not the case back then, they only had this path to choose. Catherine pouted and said, "And you're talking about another issue, don't change the subject." β
"Okay okay, I throw in the towel, I admit my mistakes. Freya raised her hand and said, "I'm not going to laugh at what I can't do anymore, honestly, it's low-level." β
"Laugh or not laugh at the one side beforehand, it doesn't matter at all. Vivien interrupted the small argument between the two girls and raised her staff to point ahead, "The problem now is that we're about to get out of this strange area, and then the bigger problem is that I seem to see something bad." β
"What do you see?" As soon as Vivien raised her staff, Her Royal Highness the princess subconsciously took a few steps back with her head in her hands, and found that she was not going to hit herself, so she coughed dryly, pretending that nothing had happened, and also released her eagle eye technique, squinted her eyes and said: "It's just a camp, I thought it was something strange." But it's a strange place to appear, and they shouldn't have camped here, Eva, when did they set up camp?"
"It is impossible to determine the specific event, because it is already outside the space debris area, and the Geological Research Center has not set up the image collection equipment for it. Eva shook her head and said, "However, the time they left the debris area was 11:47 in the afternoon, and according to the distance, it should be no later than 2 o'clock in the afternoon." β
"It seems that their mental pressure is really great, as soon as they leave the debris area, they have to stop to rest, I am afraid that it is not only the person who left the message, but the others just did not write it down. Freya said, "But is that bad?"
"Are you Colossus scholars as disrespectful of detail as you are?" Vivien said, pretending to be disdainful, "I'm not talking about the camp, of course, but the one next to it." β
"No kidding, if we ignore the details, the puppet won't move at all, but if you don't make it clear, who knows what you're referring to. Freya would not budge in this regard, and retorted violently, but her voice went from loud to low, and at last she almost disappeared, because she could see what Vivien was referring to, her face became a little heavy, and she whispered, "That's ...... Tombs and tombstones, did anyone make it to the end?"
The moment they heard the tombstone, the girls with soft hearts thought of a lot, uneasiness, fear, despair, madness, and then a second before the arrival of hope, in order to escape the despair that may come again, and chose to end their lives, there are actually many such situations, so much that the girls will not be surprised by this, and the girls feel only a thick sadness, sad for the loser who did not persist to the end.
"Let's go check it out. Catherine sighed and shook her head helplessly: "Although he didn't support it to the end, no matter what, we should also pay our respects to the deceased who went first." β
