Chapter 41: Rift, Environment, Teleportation

............

When he woke up the next day, the lighthouse boy hadn't gotten up yet. Well, but woke up, just still lying on the ground, two eyes fluttering and blinking. The dew condensed on his body and slowly dripped down, but he didn't care, it seemed that he was used to it.

"I've wanted to ask for a long time......" I twisted my body and looked at the lighthouse boy next to me, "Where's your clock?" ”

The Lighthouse Boy never seems to carry any consumables, batteries or water with him. I didn't see him with a clock. Without a clock, how did he spend his nights walking alone in the wasteland?

"I don't need a clock." He replied, "I myself am the best clock." I've been through many, many worlds in the past, and I've been through many, many things, and my biological clock has been honed to the point where it's like a normal clock. ”

The answer was so brilliant that I was speechless for a while. By the way, when I was blocked by the next question, "Why aren't you afraid of the cold?", I guess the other party would probably answer something like "Ah, because I am a beacon that never shines in the night, a torch that never ends, and the flame in my own heart makes me fearless of the cold".

I guess I don't know why, so I just don't ask.

Feeding the clock a battery, we continued on our way.

What I didn't expect was that we saw the rift that afternoon. Thanks to the help of the compass, we were able to determine the correct direction without having to stop at all times to pass through the position of the sun.

The rift valley is a huge crack-like subsidence that is not known to be formed, and the width is estimated to be a thousand meters at most, and the length is incalculable. Anyway, it's not a rift created by tectonic cycles.

In general, the rift valley is somewhat like a cloud stream, except that the cloud stream is ring-shaped, and the rift valley is strip-shaped; The cloud stream is bottomless, and although the rift valley is very deep, it can still be judged that the bottom is about two or three thousand meters deep from the perspective of oranges.

I stood on the edge of the rift with the lighthouse boy, wondering how to get down. If we go to some end of the rift strip, it would be fine, and we might be able to slide down the narrow slope. But this is about the middle of the rift valley, and the valley wall is almost vertical, making it difficult to get down safely.

Moreover, although the rift valley does not have a large number of clouds like the cloud stream, there are some clouds and mist that interfere with the line of sight, which may indicate any accidents encountered during the downward journey. I can't always keep the orange perspective. And the quality of the cloud is not enough, and it can't be synthesized into cloud bricks or cloud products - of course, the lighthouse boy and I haven't learned this technique at all, not at all.

However, there are some "props that can be used" around. Probably because the terrain of the rift valley is completely different from the normal wilderness area, it also forms a unique ecological environment. The density and variety of life here is much greater than that found on the plains.

For example, at the edge of the rift valley, there are not only many battery bushes, light bulb bushes and various mechanical components, but also a lot of low shrubs and grass bushes. In the distance, you can even see some tall trees and small towers.

Of course, with my unique vision of the wasteland and the source world, I could tell at a glance that the towers were not man-made buildings, but natural structures that grew out of nature. Just like the tall buildings in the steel forest of the Source Realm, they are the magic of nature.

Looking down along the rift valley, you can also see that there are many ... Uh, many things.

Not only did I squint my eyes, but I cautiously leaned over the edge of the cliff and looked down. There are vines and ancient trees growing on the valley walls, and in some places you can occasionally see wires growing in a tangle of branches. However, it is worth noting that there are many strange things embedded in the wall, such as a mechanical structure that has been cut off smoothly along the valley wall, and even a half-broken wire can be seen on the side, and occasionally a few electric sparks flash.

I even saw the carcass of a half-cut rat, in a small circular pit on the side of the valley wall. I can't help but make up such a picture in my brain - all the time the mouse has been walking through the dark and deep tunnel dug underground, suddenly something happened, a huge rift valley appeared in an instant, and the front half of the mouse was exactly within the "rift" range, and disappeared along with the wasteland......

Could it be that this rift valley is not naturally formed?

I looked up at the sky.

Could it be that the battle between Huang Ji, the lord of oranges, and the evil god in the Source Realm...... Can it still affect the wasteland world?

This is outrageous, judging from the scale of this huge rift, my home is almost next to it, and if this is really an accident caused by "a trace of power leaked from the battle", then I can say that I am lucky to have picked up a life...... But the Rift is a little bit higher, and the location of my hut is shrouded......

I can't even think about the consequences.

"So how do we go down?" I looked at the lighthouse boy on the side.

The lighthouse boy watched for a while, and said silently, "Originally, I was going to climb down-"

...... Belch......

I followed my gaze - the valley wall was indeed not smooth, it was full of potholes, and there were many protruding plants and artifacts in between, and of course there were certainly passages carved out by the rats that were now truncated.

It's really a little feasible to climb this method...... But that's too hasty.

How to put the evil god in the box: first open the box, then put the evil god in the box, and then close the box.

I don't know why this joke popped up in my head. It feels like it's in line with how I'm feeling right now.

"But when I met you halfway through, I changed my mind." The lighthouse boy pointed to the orange in my hand: "This, it can be teleported in a short space, and it can be used with a little energy." ”

"Huh?" I was stunned for a moment and asked, "I know it can transmit this, but Huang Ji didn't tell me how to use it?" ”

"He didn't say? Then how do you press oranges to your forehead every now and then? The lighthouse boy looked at me suspiciously, and said, "You can just communicate it with your mind?" ”

“???”

Classical Idea Communication.

If I had known what to do about this idea communication, I would have used teleportation to make a fortune.

"It's simple, you give it to me." The lighthouse boy took the orange I handed over and pressed it to the center of his eyebrows.

So right under my nose, the lighthouse boy instantly moved a step backwards.

"Shhhh

"You see, it's very useful. It's just that the energy is a little insufficient. The lighthouse boy said as he looked at the dimly lit orange.

"Oh that's easy, I brought black blocks." So I took out the black pieces in the box and charged the oranges.

After spending a dozen or so black blocks, the Lighthouse Boy teleported us to the bottom.

I just don't know if the energy we consume during the rest of the journey will be able to support us to teleport upwards again, otherwise we will have to climb up.
