557 Books God, Shells and Octopuses
At the request, Nati very unceremoniously knocked on the newly bought shield of Master Zhou with all her might, directly breaking 90% of the bones on his two arms.
"I ......" Master Zhou didn't say it, he gritted his teeth and used the broken hand bones to conjure healing jelly beans and ate them.
The movement of the shield being shattered attracted a large number of people in the store, and several clerks kicked the shield fragments away and helped Zhou Shu to take him to the hospital.
"No, I have a star viscera and can do it myself. He gritted his teeth and walked over to a stool that the clerk had brought for him, his arms as red and swollen as Russian sausages.
"I've said it badly, and you're still telling me to use all my strength. Nati said as she grabbed the hammer with a gloating expression on her face, and she couldn't tell that she was guilty. Before, she was torn off two arms by Zhou Shu, and deliberately let the bones grow out of place. That pain was no less than the one that Zhou Shu was experiencing now. At this moment, Nati can be regarded as unraveling the last knot in her heart about Zhou Shu, and she can face him very calmly, as a friend.
Zhou Shu didn't blame Nati for being heavy-handed, but felt that she smashed it well. If it weren't for this, Zhou Shu felt that he would be slack in front of the enemy because of the broken shield on one side and a half. Some attacks he can dodge, but not necessarily when holding the shield, and he may even be too lazy to dodge and deliberately pick up that one.
Looking at it now, the shield is not reliable, whether the world uses bullets, missiles or nuclear bombs, the attack power is always greater than the defense power, and it is wrong to always think about defense. If it weren't for Nati's attack today, Zhou Shu felt that sooner or later he would take it lightly by hiding behind armor and shields in the face of attacks, and now the pain in his arms can be regarded as a lesson.
When the customers in the weapons shop saw the hammer break through the shield in the store, those who bought the armor left decisively, and the buyers of weapons chose to shop in the store more decisively.
Zhou Shu's arm returned to normal after twenty minutes. Tired and energetic, Nattie left the weapon shop to buy other things.
Early in the morning of the second day, Ban Shi'er returned from Baiyue Castle.
"Princess Fuhu left me for the night. That's what she explained to Natty. Zhou Shu was eating his ham bread with radish next to him, and he was also made to think about it by this sentence.
Returning with Nati is the Grey Witch, who grabs a burger king from somewhere and eats it as she goes, announcing bad news by the way.
"We need to hurry. You have to get to the Americas today. ”
"So urgent?!" Zhou Shu didn't hear that he was leaving today, he thought he could stay here for a few days, after all, there were still some things he hadn't done, such as kissing goodbye to his princess.
"There was no time. The Grey Witch waved her hand, shoved all the burgers into her mouth with her fingers and chewed them for a while, while muttering a lot of inarticulate words.
Although Zhou Shu didn't understand what she wanted to say, judging from this urgency, he didn't have time.
The Grey Witch swallowed the food down her throat and explained again, "Sea level drops all over the world right now. It's the same in the Americas. Now there are also ports where we can go to sea, and we can also pretend to be foreigners who come ashore from there. If even the shipping over there disappears, it will be a bit of a hassle for us. ”
Zhou Shu thought about it according to this logic, and it didn't seem to be a big deal if he couldn't pretend to be an overseas visitor. However, since the gray witch is so anxious, then his old man can also accompany him. I just don't know how Nati and Ban Shi'er are.
These two girls are very important bodyguards, Zhou Shu knows that his combat power is a few pounds and a few taels, and he also knows that the gray witch is a guy who is easy to drop the chain at a critical moment. It's quite dangerous for two people to travel like this, and Nati won't mention it for now. It's easier to get in again, and it's easier to get a qiē.
"Then we're going to leave now?" Zhou Shu looked back and forth between the gray witch and Nattie, who was eating. Nati raised the fork that was forking the ham slices and said loudly, "I'm fine, I'm ready to go to war at any time." ”
So, the group of four sat on the Gray Witch's flying machine as if they were going out for a walk, and took off from their own yard and headed for the Americas of the whole world.
During the flight, Zhou Shu called the sick princess and wanted to tell her that she was going on a business trip. As a result, she didn't answer, she should be busy with something-
The Eighth World has now been dropped by the magician with two low-Earth orbit satellites, and the situation of the whole world is already under the surveillance of the satellites. The Grey Witch relied on some information about the port side of the Americas from the satellite, among other things.
The Gray Witch fastened a button-shaped magic prop to the iron chain hanging around Zhou Shu's neck, the one that held the library key.
"This thing helps you communicate with the people there. The Grey Witch explained. "It's premium. There's also the ability to confuse the person you're communicating with, even if your words don't match your pronunciation at all, and the person you're communicating with won't find out. ”
"So advanced?" Zhou Shu casually said a word in Chinese, and then he heard the gray witch muttering a string of Russian, but he could understand it, and the gray witch was scolding him with swear words.
The price of this magical little thing is very high, probably like ordinary people buying a villa with a sea view in Hawaii, but this thing of the Gray Witch is not bought for money, it is sponsored by someone. The Gray Witch also has one of her own, and the translation prop she used to have no ability to confuse has been pressed to the bottom of the box by her.
"It's Doraemon. Zhou Shu gave his opinion, and then took off the translator and asked the Gray Witch in Chinese, why not give one to Nati and Ban Shi'er.
"The two of them don't need it, right?" said the Gray Witch said that there were many things they didn't need to know, and the communication work would be done on their own side, and the meaning of the two of them was just bodyguards and errands. "If you're going to have an extramarital affair while you're on a business trip, you can also use both of them as a vent partner. Forget my words, I'll be honest with you, if you meet a witch, no matter how much you like her, don't sleep with her, it won't end well. ”
Zhou Shu felt that it was a little strange for the Gray Witch to suddenly talk about this, but he didn't think much about it. His entire mind was now on the Book of Summonings, registering and retrieving the creatures he encountered along the flight.
The speed of the aircraft is very fast. Much faster than a normal plane, the Grey Witch said that she should be able to reach her destination in about two hours. She would have taken out her 'sports car', and the classic car with the broom handle had been discarded.
Nati and Ban Shi'er are already very accustomed to this kind of flight, strictly speaking, they are forced to break their own habits, and they are forced to break their own habits, and they have to be as calm as possible.
Calmness is one of the more important qualities of being a lady. Pampering and not being frightened, no matter what happens, to remain calm and smile, this is what they have been taught since childhood.
Obviously, Zhou Shu was not told about this important quality when he was a child, and during the flight, he suddenly let out a loud cry without warning, as if he had seen the sun in the sky shattering into the earth.
"What's wrong?" The gray witch knew that Zhou Shu had some hidden secrets, and she felt bad from his expression for the first time.
The Book of Summons of the Book of Zhou has just recorded a very terrible thing, although it looks very ordinary, but it has a very terrifying name - God.
Yes. Zhou Shu registered a creature named 'God' in the Book of Summoning without believing it himself. This thing is just a ball of light, and the summon points are the same as the Shadow of Calamity, which is one point.
Master Zhou didn't need to test it to know that even if he gave the Book of Summoning a little magic, it wouldn't be able to conjure a god for himself. Regarding the gray witch's inquiry, the old man didn't dare to say anything, touched the back of his head and smirked and fooled over.
He now knew the naming habits of summons in the Book of Summons, which seemed to be unaware of the bearer of the creatures he didn't know. Named after what the rest of the world calls it. For example, Zhou Shu had never seen such a thing as a forest beast before. But in most parts of the White Moon Country, the beast that resembles the waves is called the Woodbeast, and the Book of Summons gives it its name.
Zhou Shu is not clear now, whether that 'god' is real, the one who created this world, and even magicians have never seen or even know whether it really exists as a 'god', or if it is just a 'god' that people in this world generally think.
This logic is easy to understand. If a cult leader unifies the world, proclaims himself a god and gets recognition. According to the urine nature of the Book of Callings, then this person should be named 'God'.
Zhou Shu very much hoped that the ball of light he saw would have such a terrifying name because of the above reasons, otherwise, in a world with gods. He, a man with blood on his hands, would really be so scared that he couldn't sleep at night.
In addition to this one god, the Book of Summons also found many strange things along the way, mainly on their names. Among them are scallop-like things that have always been called 'Sea King', hundreds of thousands of summon points, and an octopus-like tentacle monster called 'Nightmare'.
For the sea, Zhou Shu has always been in awe. Because of his university major, he was well aware that in early European literature, the sea was always the starting point of fantasy. For Europeans, who pioneered the development of the field of navigation, sea monsters and sea beasts, as well as treasures on the other side of the sea, were quite romantic subjects.
The word romance is now increasingly confined to the theme of 'love', tied to romance in the translation of the word. Zhou Shu knew that the change in the meaning of the word was from the crowd, but he still felt helpless and unhappy about it.
Now he is really romantic, and he has seen some sea monsters in his indulgence and fantasy, and he feels as if he is in those single-structure nautical fantasy stories, which feels quite good. In addition to gods, shells, and octopuses, there are also many strange and large fish with very high summon points, and they should all be false gods in the sea of this world.
The Gray Witch will be talking to Zhou Shu about the process of the three major forces developing a new world, first of all, when the three major forces are competing for the new world, they will kill all the pseudo-gods and other powerful creatures in this world, and create a relatively stable environment that is easy to control; 。
If immortal cultivators get the world, according to the information available so far, they will not care about this world at all, and find a place to live in seclusion and cultivate their own cultivation. But if mortals do something that threatens the world, they will rule them like slaves. Until they get tired of dominating.
As for the part of the living human race, the gray witch felt that Zhou Shu should know better than herself, so he didn't say anything.
Listening to the words of the gray witch, Zhou Shu also heard the sound outside the strings. "You're saying we can create a catastrophe and then the thief shouts to catch the thief and dress himself up as a hero?"
"Can't you?" asked the Grey Witch with a smile.
"No, you can't ......," Zhou Shu sighed. Having just met God, he didn't want to kill at all lately, "If it's a disaster for the undead, I can try." ”
"No calamity is immortal. The gray witch looked at Zhou Shu, and said with a wicked smile: "If there is a beautiful princess in that American civilization, you will probably agree with my approach, and then just like you fooled His Royal Highness Nalolo, go to run errands for that princess and give courtesy, and then cheat money and deceive sex to seize power peacefully." ”
Zhou Shu also just knew that the Gray Witch had always looked at herself like this, "You completely treat me as Xue Pinggui." ”
"Xue Pinggui, who is that?"
"Fictional characters in our country's folk dramas. Zhou Shu shrugged. told the story of Xue Pinggui, Wang Baochuan and Princess Xiliang Daizhan.
Wang Baochuan, as the daughter of the prime minister, broke through difficulties and dangers to marry the poor ghost Xue Pinggui. Later, Xue Pinggui enlisted in the army to fight against Xiliang, and after making great contributions, he was framed and captured by Xiliang. As a result, Xue Pinggui was taken by the princess of Xiliang and recruited as a concubine, and after the death of King Xiliang, he became the king of Xiliang.
In the story of Zhou Shu, there is no Wang Baochuan who has been guarding the cold kiln for 18 years, even if there is such a princess in the civilization he is about to come into contact with, Master Zhou feels that he will not be able to be clear with another princess. For the princess, one person in the family is enough. He didn't dare to imagine the scene of another princess appearing in front of the sick princess as a third person, it was even more terrifying than the god he had just seen.
The two-hour journey came to an end quickly. Nattie listened to the two foreigners chatting all the way, and her head hurt. Fortunately, at this time, the land appeared in front of the eyes of several of them.
At this time, the land under Zhou Shu and his party was a rock pool exposed after the sea receded, but the scope was far less wide than that of Baiyue Kingdom.
The terrain of Baiyu Country is very gentle, and when the sea level drops by three to five meters, a large amount of land is spit out. The continent is obviously a bit elevated. It hasn't been affected too much by the coastline.
It is said that the Winter God's freezing work has ended, and she is now dormant, which means that the sea level will not fall again, and the area of the North Pole of this world has expanded several times, and many Eskimos of this world have probably frozen to death. If there really is.
Zhou Shu and his entourage flew around the coastline on the aircraft for more than half an hour, and finally found a harbor that was not affected by the receding sea. This is a typical Crescent Bay port, where maritime activity is very intensive, and there are ships from all over the world as far as the eye can see.
Seeing this situation, the gray witch was relieved: "Since there are still so many places with ships coming and going, it means that there are still many ports in this continent that have not been affected. ”
"How are you at geography?" Zhou Shu asked a very jumpy question.
The Grey Witch scratched her head, "I haven't studied?" ”
Zhou Shu just wanted to know if Europe in the first world was also more resistant to the decline of the sea than the American continent. In fact, he didn't know if this problem should be explained by geography, or if he needed knowledge of oceanography or other specialized disciplines, but since he didn't know, it didn't matter, so he didn't bother.
The Grey Witch lowered the position of the aircraft slightly, wanting to see what the humans in the New World civilization were wearing. If you just look at the climate, it is obviously much warmer than Europe, where the White Moon Country is located.
Just lowered the flight altitude a little, Ban Shi'er found that all the sailors on a sea ship were shouting and pointing in the direction of their side, and they were also discovered.
The Gray Witch's flying machine is a stealth aircraft, but it is only invisible to the radar, and it is accurate to the naked eye, which is why she is careful to fly at high altitude.
Since she didn't see it, the Gray Witch wasn't going to stay here longer. As a qualified UFO, she should have fled decisively when she was discovered, so she did so, and drove the four of them directly to the mountains and forests on the outskirts of this port city.
"The plants here are so small. ”
In the forest, Ban Shi'er and Natie looked back and forth at the surrounding trees.
There are pseudo-gods guarding the White Moon Country, whether it is crops or livestock, the size of the animals is very large, and the White Moon Country itself is materially rich, and basically few people will starve. There are apparently no gods on this continent who are skilled in agriculture, and the plants and animals are no different in size from the First World.
Zhou Shu threw a stone, knocked down a bird in the forest, weighed the two taels of meat on its body and sighed, "It seems that the people living in this world are more difficult than those in Baiyue Kingdom." ”
"What now?" the Grey Witch looked around, "Are we going into the city?"
Zhou Shu has already read the human race in this continent through the Book of Summoning, not the appearance of the Native Americans of the First World, no matter how you look at it, they are all ordinary Europeans, and the three girls except themselves should not be regarded as foreigners here.
In this case, Master Zhou took off his clothes and pants, took out a light cloak and put himself inside, and then pointed in the direction of the harbor city. "Let's just go in and get some unlucky guy to steal some money from him, and then find a tavern to sit down and listen to the people talk about the world. (To be continued......)
