Chapter 4: The Teacher of the Brave

The night covered the land, and the inside of the guest room was pitch black.

Pan Long locked the door, pinned the window, moved the table and stool to sort out a large enough open space, and lay on the floor.

His figure suddenly disappeared and came to the world of the fragments of the Shan Hai Sutra.

With a wave of his hand, the pale void that was already too familiar to be familiar suddenly disappeared and turned into a vast sea of stars.

"Let's find a new world this time......" he said to himself, not deliberately summoning the worlds he had already visited, but relaxing his mind and letting countless stars fly freely, until one of the stars flew over and crashed into him.

It was dark in front of me, and when it became bright again, it had become the edge of a forest.

You can see a town in the distance, the rock walls are quite tall, and there are even heavily armed soldiers patrolling the walls, but the location is not very good, and the city gate is not visible.

He launched a stealth and circled the town for a while, finding a gate.

The city gate is very lively, with many pedestrians and vehicles coming and going. The soldiers guarding the gates of the city seemed to be in good spirits, neither fierce nor decadent, and their spirits were very good, at least on the surface, quite positive.

Pan Long paid attention to the pedestrian's clothes again, then nodded, retreated into the woods, and took out a relatively similar style of clothes from the dimensional bag to change.

In order to make it easier to travel to various worlds, he prepared six or seven sets of clothes with completely different styles. Roughly unless it is a world that pursues fancy clothes, no matter what style of world, you can find at least the difference that is not so big that people suspect that it is an alien clothes to change.

Now the outfit consists of a sleeveless tunics, shorts, and straw sandals, and looks rather shabby. But compared to the pedestrians who enter and leave the city, it is already the closest to the "popular style".

He changed his clothes, walked up the road from the woods, and in a moment he was at the gate of the city.

The soldiers guarding the gate did not stop him, but only looked at him carefully. When he entered, an older soldier said, "You're from outsider, aren't you? ”

Pan Long smiled and nodded, thanking him for his concern, but didn't talk to him much.

If you want to inquire about the news, you can't ask these soldiers. They are not NPCs in the game who only have a few fixed lines, and if they suspect him, even if he is strong in martial arts and can escape, he will inevitably get into trouble.

Entering the city, the scene in the city is unsurprisingly very ordinary.

How so...... It just has a feeling that is very similar to the Japanese style of "sword and magic". It's quite similar to the world of "Sword and Tragedy" that he has been to before.

Unfortunately, he hasn't been able to identify what world this is, and he can't recognize the exact origin of this world, so he can't activate the character panel.

This is a small flaw in the fragment of the Classic of Mountains and Seas, although he can open illusory worlds according to his memory, but after entering those worlds, unless he can correctly judge what this world is, he will not be able to open the corresponding character panel, and he will not be able to get the greatest benefit of the corresponding world.

For example, in a martial arts world he went to before, because there were too many versions of information in his memory, he couldn't determine what that world came from in the end, whether it was a certain game, or an anime, or a film and television work, or simply the original book?

The situation in this world is much better than that martial arts world, although it seems to be all kinds of popular familiarity, but ...... Pan Long remembered that in his previous life, he had not had much contact with Japanese fantasy.

He wandered around the city and soon found a shop with a sign with bags on it, which, in his experience, was supposed to be a grocery store β€” or a prop store.

I entered the store and inquired a little, and sure enough, it was so. So he took out a few pieces of gold and asked the other party to exchange them for coins.

About half a catty of gold was exchanged for more than a hundred gold coins, and Pan Long only checked it for a moment, and judged that these gold coins were far heavier than his own piece of gold, at least more than two catties. Obviously, the purity of gold coins in this world is not high, so it's no wonder that the value is so low.

He didn't bargain, but put away the money as if he didn't care, and casually asked, "I just came here, is there anything worth noting?"

The grocery store owner made a business and was in a good mood, so he introduced him.

According to his introduction, Pan Long learned that this town is called Buckwheat Town, located in the south-central part of the Chris's Kingdom, and there are no particularly dangerous monsters around, so it is relatively safe.

The Kingdom of Chris is a country founded by Chris, one of the four brave men who sealed the Demon King in the past, the Iron Knight Chris. It is located in the south of the continent, and the "Black Skull Island" that seals the demon king across the sea, because it has been wary of the revival of the demon king, so it pays attention to armaments and has a strong military force.

As for the Demon King...... That's a clichΓ© story.

This continent used to be stable and peaceful, but more than 100 years ago, the Demon King resurrected and led the evil army he summoned to sweep across the world. In the midst of a flood of mourning, the four brave men drew their swords and fought against the Demon King's army, and finally sealed the Demon King and restored peace to the earth.

Of the four Heroes, Chris the Iron Knight later founded the kingdom of Chris, Eru the Wind Archer returned to the North and became the elder of the Northland Rangers, Lawrence the Archmage took over as president of the Wizards' Guild and is now known as the Great Sage, and Anna spread the faith of the Earth Goddess Cult and became the Pope of the Earth Goddess Sect about a decade ago.

All in all, world peace, all is well.

But Pan Long doesn't think so.

Although he hasn't remembered the origin of this world yet, even if he has a nose to think about it, if the world is really peaceful, how can the story be told?

I guess it's not the revival of the demon king.,It's a new demon king appearing.。 Otherwise, the countries on the continent will fight...... Anyway, it's nothing more than these routines.

Rather than these cookie-cutter discussions, he is more interested in what is the origin of this world?

It may have been too long, but he really had no impression of the world.

The brave defeated the Demon King, and the world returned to peace, and then the world was in chaos again...... He knew at least a dozen stories that were all starting out like this.

With this bit of information alone, how can he remember what kind of world this is!

But the prop shop owner is not a particularly well-informed person after all, and it is not convenient for him to ask in detail. So I had to take the money and leave first, find a hotel to stay, and slowly collect information.

After a few days, he finally figured out where the world came from.

Mainly, he met His Majesty King Chris I, who came to inspect the people.

The former brave man was still wearing a heavy black armor, which was so heavy that the war horse could not carry it, so he could only ride in a chariot. He was holding a shield in one hand and a gun in the other, majestic, and it seemed that he could still fight at any time, but Pan Long clearly felt that he had old age and weakness that could not be concealed.

Counting the time, more than forty years have passed since the four brave men crusaded against the demon king. The mighty Iron Knight of the past is now just an old man over seventy years old. In the past 40 years, he has worked hard in government affairs, intrigued with high-level officials of various countries, stabilized the country internally, and consolidated his power externally, I don't know how much effort he has spent.

The withered pale hair was a testament to his hard work.

Regardless of whether it is the Demon King or some other careerist who will cause trouble to the world in the future, in short, this brave man is probably no longer capable of going into battle and fighting the enemy for 300 rounds.

And Pan Long finally remembered the origin of this world.

"Isn't this the 'teacher of the brave'!"

"Teacher of the Brave" is an adventure game with a light-hearted and humorous theme, in which the player takes on the role of the retired knight of the kingdom, who is entrusted by His Majesty the King, the previous generation of heroes, to train a group of teenagers, train them into a new generation of heroes, and finally defeat the evil forces led by the demon king.

Well, that's pretty much it, that's right.

Pan Long actually has no impression of the protagonist and his students - the most impressive thing is probably the dress of one of the female students, which really belongs to the kind that is bold and excessive even at the COS exhibition, and may be forced to wear a coat by the security guards.

To be honest, he was actually a little more impressed with King Chris than that.

His Majesty the King played a very heavy role in the early stage of the plot, and every time he appeared, he was so coaxed that he almost carried a plaque of "Invincible Opponents All Over the World" to swagger through the market. But in the middle of the story, when the Demon King's army appears, he leads his troops into battle without doing his best, and he is defeated at once, and the player has to bring the students to save him.

If that's all there is, it's fine. It's nothing more than a story of "since ancient times, beauties are like famous generals, and they are not allowed to see white heads in the world". However, when the plot develops to the Armageddon stage, if the player can complete a series of side quests before, they can get a "mirror of time". Using this treasure, the four brave men who have aged can temporarily regain their youth.

The four brave men who have returned to their youth, their combat effectiveness can really only be described by the word "strong". The four of them joined forces.,Swept away the demon king army that the students had to work hard to defeat little by little.,In the end, the demon king was seriously injured by them and fled.,When he fled to the protagonist, he was too injured to lie on the ground and couldn't move.。

Although the protagonist has retired, he is not old enough to wield a sword after all, so he swings his sword and completes the achievement of killing the demon king in seconds......

This is the hidden ending of the game, "I am the brave".

Because Pan Long himself used this ending to clear the customs in the first place, he was very impressed by it.

And now, the protagonist of the game, riding a war horse, leading six knights, leading the way in front of His Majesty's chariot.

Watching them pass majestically down the road through the window, and watching the people cheer continuously, Pan Long smiled and shook his head and closed the window.

Open the Roles panel. ”
