Chapter 492: The Second Time to Go to the Blood Wasteland
Returning home from the East Coast is not a wise move.
Because on the way, you need to cross the Atlantic Ocean to Panama and enter the Pacific Ocean through the Panama Canal.
The original plan was to stop on the West Coast, but that would have lengthened the route, so it would have been better to resupply in South America and then go straight to Hawaii for a relay.
Zhao Chuanxin has too many things, and it takes several tosses and reloading to take the train, so it is better to arrive at one time by detour.
The currents in the Atlantic Ocean are strong and the water masses are complex.
It wasn't windy, but the sea looked rough.
Even Miao Cuihua couldn't stand it a little, and went back to the cabin to rest, only Zhao Chuanxin was alone on the deck, and from time to time the recliner would move due to the shaking of the cargo ship, but he didn't realize it.
At least today the wind and the sun are beautiful.
Open the Code of the Old Gods.
Last time, "I" traveled thousands of miles to the Ancient Road, and was guided by a paper crane into the path of hell, where I was stopped by the Night's Watch. After several twists and turns, I finally saw the legendary demon king, which turned out to be a book - "Demon Codex".
Got a Ecstasy lamp and ten pages.
Nine pages were swallowed by the stars and moon.
Zhao Chuanxin also learned that the diary in his hand was actually called the "Old God Codex".
[My brother and sister and I, after many days of travel, finally arrived at the human city-state. 】
[The last time the Sea Clan went to war, the human city-state drove the remnants of life to Sunset Town, the edge of the Blood Wasteland, so we were able to travel smoothly like this. 】
[I found the weirdos and the goblins. 】
[Goblin asks: Fearless Vanguard, have you found the Demon Codex?] 】
[I said: I found it, but it is alive.] 】
[I'm going to go through the head and end and tell it again, hiding the content about the other me.] 】
Another me?
Zhao Chuanxin was stunned.
In fact, he doesn't quite understand how he looks in my heart.
It turned out that "I" felt that Zhao Chuanxin was his subconscious voice, or something else.
Zhao Chuanxin said, then didn't he become the ruler of the old days?
Just like a psychopath, Zhao Chuanxin has become an illusion of "me".
For "me", maybe Zhao Chuanxin is powerful, and he also has supernatural powers, because he can use the "key" to transmit items from the two realms.
Of course, for "me", Zhao Chuanxin's appearance must be indescribable, after all, I have never seen it and I am not familiar with it.
As for the non-human mind and the dark aura, Zhao Chuanxin denied these two points.
He felt that his thinking was normal, and he felt that he was very sunny.
But it was a slap in the face right away.
[Because I think that the other one is evil, crazy, and has an abnormal human mind. 】
Zhao Chuanxin: "......"
[The goblin fell into deep thought, as if reminiscing, and said for a long time: If I remember correctly, my ancestors told me stories about the Demon King and the Old Gods. The Demon King and the Demon Codex are two different things. But the Demon King is cunning. Fearless Vanguard, didn't you really bring back any pages of the Demon Code? 】
[I looked at the seriousness on the goblin's face, and I felt a little uneasy in my heart. 】
[But I still pretended to be firm and said: No, the Demon Code is very powerful.] 】
"Weirdos trust me. 】
[But the goblin's gaze always seems to be able to see through people's hearts, and he laughs without saying a word.] 】
[This makes me feel a little weak. 】
[The strange man patted me on the shoulder and said: Fearless Vanguard, although you didn't get back the Demon Codex, I was still moved by your efforts. Now, go back and rest. 】
[The goblin said: "It's just right, I'm going to go out, I'll go out with you.] 】
[After leaving the sight of the stranger, the goblin said to me: Fearless Vanguard, in my memory, the Demon King always holds the Demon Codex, but the Lord of the Gods always holds the Old God Codex. The two books each represent two ancient rules. 】
[I asked: What's that?] 】
Even Zhao Chuanxin, the "old ruler", couldn't help but sit up straight.
That's the answer he desperately wants to get.
[However, the goblin shakes his head: I don't know.] But the reason why the demon king is called the demon king is not that he represents evil, and the old gods do not represent good, but only because the demon king is cunning and fickle. Now, I think the Demon Codex should be the biggest reason why the Demon King is cunning and fickle. 】
[I was surprised: You mean, the Demon King was affected by the Demon Codex? 】
[Goblin shakes his head: No, the Demon Codex is just his tool, but I think the Demon Codex will help him with ideas.] So, if you have a page of the Demon Codex in your hand, it's best to destroy it. As long as they are in this world, the pages of the Demon Codex will sense each other. 】
Zhao Chuanxin hurriedly wrote:
[I asked: What if the pages of the Demon Codex are no longer in this world?] 】
What he said was the truth.
[Goblin Trance: Not in this world? So where will it go? Out of this world? If they do go out of this world, the senses between the pages of the Demon Codex will be cut off, but the wisdom of each individual page will remain. 】
Zhao Chuanxin was overjoyed.
This statement dispelled his concerns.
But he still has a question: if he can find the loophole of the "key" himself, will the Lord of the Gods, who is the master of the Old Gods Codex, not know about it?
Why didn't he banish the Demon Code from the country in this way?
Zhao Chuanxin couldn't ask directly, he wrote around the corner:
[I continue to ask: What would happen if the entire Demon Codex were taken out of this world?] 】
[Goblin laughs: That can't be.] But if that's the case, both worlds will be thrown into chaos. 】
Zhao Chuanxin couldn't help but be a little confused.
The Old Gods Code and the Demon Code were originally in the world of the Old Gods Codex.
But how can something fit into itself?
Now the "Old God Codex" is clearly in the hands of Zhao Chuanxin, on the earth.
He writes:
[I ask again: What if the Code of the Old Gods appeared in another world?] 】
[The goblin laughs: Dreadnought, that can't be. 】
[I have no reason to continue to get to the bottom of it. 】
[The goblin's face became solemn: Whether you have the pages of the Demon Code in your hand or not, you know, I am not in favor of continuing the study of biological intelligence. 】
[I understand what the goblin means. 】
[It guessed that I had the pages of the Demon Codex, but it wouldn't say it.] 】
[The goblin said again: Dreadnought Pioneer, I personally want to give you a task, this task is very familiar to you, and the reward is life, do you accept it?] 】
[Goblin gives two options:
One: Go to the Blood Wasteland again to find the crater where the Devil Crystal was found, and find the companion creature of the Devil Crystal, the Starry Sky Root, there.
The reward is 50 years of life.
Two: Go to the abandoned house where the remnants of the creatures were found, and look for a test tube.
The reward is 10 years of life. 】
Every time I go to a multiple-choice question, there is a pitfall.
Almost never with exceptions.
Zhao Chuanxin chooses the option that seems to be a good deal, and he will not suffer a loss in the end, but choosing the option that seems to be the least cost-effective will have the greatest benefits.
He writes:
[I said: I can do both tasks at the same time.] 】
[The goblin said: Dreadnought Pioneer, you have limited time, so you can only choose one of them. Because I got word from the Sentinels, the remnants of the creatures began to retreat towards the Blood Wasteland again. If you're looking for the Roots of the Starry Sky, you'll have to explore the bottom of the crater, which will take a lot of time and you have to get out before they retreat to the Blood Wasteland. 】
[I don't know what to choose, maybe I should listen to my heart. 】
This is the case for patients with difficulty in choosing.
Zhao Chuanxin knew that "I" was waiting for his answer.
He thought about it and made up his mind.
This time he's going to eat in the bowl and look into the pot.
He writes:
[I choose the first one.] 】
[Goblin said: Dreadnought, I know you're tired, but because time is pressing, I still hope you'll be able to set off immediately.] As far as I know, Sunset Town, the main road to the Blood Wasteland, is at its most lax in defense. 】
[I couldn't be idle, so when I heard this, I immediately went back to find my brother and sister and prepared to go. 】
Zhao Chuanxin closed the "Old God Codex" and regained his strength.
It was a dull day, and it was a little cold on deck.
Zhao Chuanxin got up and knocked on the door of the apprentice's family: "Get up and go to the restaurant, and we will eat baking trays together in the evening." ”
For the journey, Zhao Chuanxin was also prepared.
At this time, the airtightness of the cabin was mentioned, and in the dining room, there was a table for the crew there, and a table for Zhao Chuanxin and others.
Outside, the Atlantic Ocean was blowing an endlessly irritating wind, unheated, and the wind tugged at the ubiquitous crevices, giving goosebumps with its whimpering.
Only the light of the alcohol stove made by Zhao Chuanxin swaying under the baking tray gave everyone a trace of warmth.
Zhao Chuanxin saw Rachel Kvis trembling, so he said, "Wait for me, get a stove." ”
It seemed that he had just returned from the door, carrying a copper stove full of charcoal.
Zhao Chuanxin sprinkled some kerosene, struck a match and threw it in.
"Hoo ......"
The green flames sparkled and turned yellow.
Zhao Chuanxin placed the charcoal stove next to Rachel Kvis.
There are a table of people, there are Zhao Chuanxin's apprentices, and Zhao Chuanxin's confidantes, but the charcoal stove was given to her, which made Rachel Kvis suddenly think about it.
Does he think anything else about me?
Actually, she really thinks too much.
Because of the people at this table, even if Jiang Bo and Samuel Goldberg froze to death, Zhao Chuanxin would not blink an eye.
Miao Cuihua and her apprentices have both practiced balancing techniques and are extremely resistant to cold.
Not to mention yourself.
The oil was hot, and Zhao Chuanxin put the marinated beef into the pot.
Suddenly, the sound of "zila la" sounded, and the aroma spread.
Zhao Chuanxin said: "This is my own industry, and the meat produced by my own cattle herd is very good. ”
Needless to say, on a cold day, it is just right to eat hot barbecue.
Zhao Chuanxin took out two more bottles of Bordeaux and asked Jiang Bo to send one bottle to the crew.
Jiang Bo scolded: "Why did you send them for nothing, it's not that you didn't pay them......
It's not going to happen, this thing has become a watchdog.
"If you want to go, what's the nonsense?" Zhao Chuanxin scolded.
The crew's table erupted in cheers, and they toasted Zhao Chuanxin from afar.
Zhao Chuanxin said to Jiang Bo who came back: "See, this is called solitary music, it is better to be happy with everyone." ”
"You're rich, you're amazing, aren't you?"
The boat was lonely and the journey was long, and Zhao Chuanxin felt that it was necessary to have a good relationship with everyone on this ship.
The sweat on the foreheads of the people who ate a meal dispelled the cold.
But after the cups and plates were messy, he went out of the restaurant, and was agitated by the cold wind, and he had goosebumps all over his body.
Zhao Chuanxin took the handle of the copper stove and handed it to Samuel Goldberg: "Take your cabin." ”
There is no need to deliberately pay attention to ventilation, because the wind is not open all the time.
Fortunately, as the boat gradually moved south, the weather warmed up a little bit.
At first, I felt cold in my coat, but then I took off my coat, and when the ship sailed into Cuban waters, I couldn't even wear a suit, and I had to unbutton my shirt.
When entering the Caribbean Sea, traveling in the waters of Honduras.
The boat passes through the sea between a small island and Honduras.
Rachel Cearn pointed to the island and said, "Look, how beautiful that island is, you can take a boat here for a vacation." ”
Samuel Goldberg said, "There's a ship over there, and it seems to be coming towards us." ”
At this time, the captain suddenly ran out nervously: "Don't talk too much later, I'll negotiate." ”
