Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    There is a sea area to the west of the Lion Continent called the Roaring Sea. Like the Blade Sea, it is one of the seven sea areas.  In addition to being adjacent to the Lion Continent, this sea area is also connected to the Barren Stone Continent.  The Barren Stone Continent is famous for its desolation. Although the continent is large, the land is barren, and it is full of barren mountains and ridges that are difficult to cultivate.  It is difficult for both humans and animals to survive here.  But the deceased lived happily here.  On the barren stone continent, there is a city of death, where a large number of undead, necromancers, ghouls, zombies, skeletons live Any creature linked to darkness can basically be found in the city.  The existence of the Death City casts a layer of danger on the Deserted Stone Continent, and few people are willing to take the risk to come here - unless they are motivated by profit.  An old black sailboat broke through the fog and sailed leisurely on the sea, sailing all the way to the shore of the barren stone continent.  There is an unguarded pier here. A long wooden pole is inserted near the trestle, and several dried corpses are hung on the top of the pole.  These mummies are swaying in the wind, as if greeting these outsiders.  "Stop the ship and lower the anchor!" the captain shouted.  This is a middle-aged man with a big beard and a skull ring on his finger.  The sailors responded several times, and several of them pulled the millstone-shaped winch, the iron chain creaked, and the heavy anchor sank from the side of the ship, creating a wave of water on the sea surface, and slowly sank.  After working hard for a while, the sailors finally finished the work of landing.  "Pull out the coffin and put it on the magic car. Be careful not to disturb the contents of the coffin when moving it," the captain shouted.  The sailors shouted labor chants and carried coffins one after another out of the cabin.  Put it on the deck.  Another group of sailors pushed a wooden magic cart onto the trestle. This cart looked similar to a carriage, except that there was no horse pulling the cart. Instead, it used a magic wheel as a power source.  As long as a magic diamond is embedded in the magic box of the wheel, the wheel can rotate at a constant speed and drive the entire car forward.  The magic of the Seven Seas World is not only applied on the sea, many things on the shore will also make good use of magic.  The sailors carried the coffins one by one to the body of the magic car.  Place them one next to the other.  This cart can hold up to nine coffins. The first eight coffins are not surprising in appearance, but the ninth coffin is obviously more different from the first eight coffins.  There were circles of iron chains wrapped around it, and the iron chains were covered with crosses. The surface of the coffin was also engraved with the teachings of the Holy Cross.  ¡°Obviously, this coffin with many sacred objects attached contains a very powerful dark creature.  "God bless. I hope this trip will be safe and sound. If we can successfully transport these dark creatures to the City of Death, we will make a lot of money." The captain looked at the heavily defended ninth coffin and prayed in a low voice.  As soon as he finished speaking, a sudden change occurred!  The heavily defended ninth coffin suddenly began to tremble violently, and wisps of black energy seeped out of it. The dozens of silver crosses trembled incessantly, and the secret patterns of the doctrine on the surface of the coffin flickered.  The navigators were all startled.  Especially the captain, whose face turned pale with fear.  "Priest, come here quickly! Use magic to suppress this coffin!" the captain shouted at the top of his lungs.  Immediately two priests who came with the ship rushed over.  One chanted a spell, and the other jumped directly on top of the coffin, took out a special cross, and stuck it on the coffin.  This cross is like a sharp sword, with the lower end forming a pointed cone shape and easily penetrating into the coffin.  Under the suppression of the two priests, the coffin stabilized, but not long after, it shook again, and it was more intense than the last time.  "Bang!" The coffin exploded, and a figure stood up from the sky full of sawdust.  He was an elf during his lifetime, and he still maintained his appearance after death, with a set of bows and arrows on his back.  Waves of black energy emitted from his body, and his closed eyes slowly opened, with a red light appearing inside.  It¡¯s Berego.  ¡°He, he turned out to be an evil spirit, not an undead spirit!¡± The captain gasped in fright.  There is a huge difference in strength between the evil spirits and the undead. This ninth coffin can suppress the undead, but it cannot suppress the evil spirits.  What the captain couldn't figure out was that when he bought this dark creature, it was obviously just an undead soul. Why did it suddenly turn into an evil spirit?  "Thank you for sending me here." Berego looked at the shocked captain expressionlessly, gave a salute, and immediately stepped out of the coffin.  No one dared to stop Berego.  All sailors?They were dumbfounded. In their understanding, evil spirits should be very dangerous and violent. Why did the evil spirit in front of them have such a kind tone?  ¡°And this evil spirit seems to have boarded this ship on purpose¡± Berego left the navigators who were looking at each other on the shore, and set off on the road alone, heading along the deserted mountain road under the blazing sun above his head.  After walking for a while, he felt that the sun was too burning and felt a little uncomfortable, so he grabbed the hood behind his back and put it over his head to block the sun.  A shadow hung down from his hood, covering his handsome face filled with dark energy.  It is impossible for ordinary undead to act under such a vicious sun. As an evil spirit, Berego doesn't care, but he will feel a little uncomfortable.  Berego walked forward, a pair of earrings on his ears swaying. There were cat-shaped carvings on these earrings.  "It's really troublesome to sail across the sea. It took me so long to reach the Barren Stone Continent. Fortunately, there are enough fish in the sea, and we had a good time eating along the way." The cat-shaped earrings actually made the sound of a light fairy.  Yes, this earring is the clone of the light fairy, in order to suppress Berego's evil spirit and facilitate dialogue between the two parties.  Berego didn¡¯t talk much when he was alive, and became even more taciturn after his death. He ignored the words of the light fairy and continued to walk forward step by step.  A strong wind blew, dust filled the sky, and a few tumbleweeds rolled on the ground.  Berego's clothes also trembled.  The light demon was talking to himself there without any intention of stopping.  "I'm so smart that I found a boat with a favorable wind for you. We don't have to worry about it all the way. If we row or swim here by ourselves, it will be really troublesome, and we might even get lost." "Those sailors are really good too.  You are brave enough to come here to do business and make a living by selling dark creatures. Selling fish is better than selling dark creatures. The sailor who sells fish is the cutest. " "You are going to the northeast.  Over there. I have a keen sense of smell and can smell the stench of the Death City from a long distance away." A chatty light fairy and a silent evil spirit.  They formed an extremely awkward duo.  Time flies, and a few days pass in the blink of an eye.  Berego finally arrived at the legendary City of Death one night.  He was standing on a boulder that was more than a hundred yards high. The boulder was abnormally shaped and had been standing there for who knows how many years.  He stood high and looked far away.  Looking at the Death City opposite.  The sky over the City of Death is filled with clouds.  These clouds linger all year round, blocking the sun.  Beneath the clouds is a majestic city. The city is quite large. The city is dotted with towering buildings. Most of the buildings have pointed roofs, as if they were spears stuck in the ground.  It's hard to imagine that such a deserted place could have such a majestic city.  There are several passages around the Death City, and some dark creatures can be seen coming in and out of the city.  In addition, there are some living people, such as necromancers.  Or the merchants who come here to sell dark creatures.  The City of Death is the home of dark creatures. Anyone who brings dark creatures, no matter what kind, can get a hefty reward.  The sailboat that sent Berego here was for this kind of dangerous business.  "Xiaobei, the city of death is ahead. You have to check for me in the city to find out why more and more undead have been born recently." The cat-shaped earrings transmitted the sound to Berego's ears.  "Call me Berego, not Beckham." After Berego said that, he jumped off the boulder and walked towards the Death City that was right in front of him.  ¡­¡­¡­ Venus Continent, Kara Tribe.  Anrui helped the Kara tribe take revenge, killed the pirates, and returned part of the money to the Kara tribe in exchange for friendship between the two parties.  The tribal chief asked him to stay in the tribe for a few days. He just needed some rest, so he agreed.  Today is already the third day. He has returned to his full strength and it is time to leave here.  Next, he was going to do something very important, even more important than finding this new continent.  An Rui stood in front of a house made of stones, stretched his waist a few times, and took a few breaths of fresh air.  He planned to leave after breakfast in the tribe.  Several female natives were washing up opposite, holding a wooden stick in their hands and poking it back and forth in their mouths.  "Why does this stick look like a toothbrush?" An Rui noticed the eyes in the hands of the female natives and stared at them.  One of the female natives took the stick out of her mouth, drank some water, rinsed her mouth a few times, and was obviously brushing her teeth.  Only then did An Rui look clear how the wooden stick looked like the stick. There were many small holes on the wooden stick,There are a lot of animal hairs inserted into it.  It turns out that this wooden stick is really a toothbrush, just a little cruder!  This discovery surprised An Rui, and his eyes, which were originally a little sleepy, suddenly became brighter.  The New World is a barbaric continent. The civilization of these indigenous people is very backward. Things like toothbrushes should not have been born.  Although cleaning tools similar to toothbrushes have long been produced in several other sea areas, it is impossible for them to spread here.  Where did this toothbrush come from?  Who invented it?  Anrui walked closer to the female natives step by step and communicated with them through gestures, expressing that she wanted to take a look at the toothbrush.  The female native hesitated and handed the toothbrush into his hand.  He took the toothbrush and looked at it from a close distance. This simple toothbrush had a very good grasp on the size, and even had two arcs on the handle.  "Quasimodo! Come quickly!" An Rui shouted, looking very anxious.  A short-distance teleportation gate appeared nearby, and Quasimodo walked out of it and asked, "Why are you so anxious to find me?" "Use the Bridge of Language to help me communicate with this female native. I want to get it from her."  "Buy this toothbrush here." "Why did you buy this crap?" "I have my purpose. Just follow it." An Rui didn't want to explain more.  And it can¡¯t be explained at all.  Quasimodo nodded, asked no more questions, and released magic at the female native.  Expressed the idea of ????purchasing this toothbrush.  The two parties discussed it and Anrui later exchanged a beautiful silver ring for this simple toothbrush. This was the first time for him to make such a loss-making transaction in so many years in the New World.  Holding this toothbrush, he directly found the chief of the Kara tribe and asked Quasimodo to help cast magic so that he could communicate with the chief.  "Who made this thing?" An Rui asked, shaking the toothbrush in his hand.  Quasimodo conveyed this sentence.  "This is made by craftsmen in the tribe. It can make the teeth cleaner." The chief replied.  "Who invented this thing?" "It was brought by a young man from outside. He made many similar small things and traded them with us. These small things are very simple to make. Later we copied them.  A lot. That young man is really smart for being able to create these things." This answer made An Rui's heart skip a beat, his pupils slowly contracted, and his expression became more solemn than ever.  After taking a few deep breaths.  He continued to ask: "When did he first come?" "That was a long, long time ago." The chief's answer was somewhat ambiguous.  These natives do not have their own calendar.  There is no concept of year, month and day, so I cannot answer this kind of question.  An Rui had an idea and asked in a different way: "How tall was your youngest son when that young man came here?" This chief has many children, one of whom is still very young. Visual inspection  He looks like eleven or twelve years old.  Dwarves are short in stature, but their growth cycle is the same as that of humans, so they can rely on their height increase.  Approximately determine the time experienced.  The chief thought for a while and made a gesture.  Judging from the height of his gestures, only two or three years have passed.  An Rui came to this different world three years ago.  And the young man who invented the toothbrush also appeared during this time period.  These two time points are really consistent.  Anrui froze on the spot as if he had been struck by a petrification spell, staring blankly at the chief opposite.  Quasimodo saw that An Rui's reaction was very strange, and asked: "An Rui, what's wrong with you?" "I may have met someone who has a similar experience to me." An Rui squeezed it like toothpaste.  After saying these words, he waved his hand towards Quasimodo, indicating that he was fine, and continued to ask, "How tall is that young man? Where is he now?" "That young man is as tall as us. He is a local  He is not an outsider. It is a pity that he died a long time ago."  "He's dead?" An Rui was surprised again.  "Well, I heard that he was killed by a monster. Not only was he smart, he was also very brave. He often led people deep into dangerous areas to fight with monsters." He was smart He often led people to fight with monsters  These clues are like sharp arrowheads, pointing to an amazing possibility.  "Am I not the only time traveler?" An Rui looked at the simple toothbrush in his hand, and his surprise almost reached its limit.  That smart young man looks too much like a dresserHe is a transcendent, and it is very likely that like An Rui, he also has an upgrade system, so he is so keen on hunting monsters to increase his level of strength.  This is just a speculation, but the possibility is really high.  It¡¯s a pity that this person has already died, and An Rui has no way to verify it.  ¡°When there is one, there are two, and when there are two, there are three. If there really are many travelers in this different world¡± An Rui¡¯s hand suddenly clenched. ?¡­ ?The beach of Star Island.  Three high-level magic ships were ready to sail. The dean of Tears of the Stars Academy led a group of wizards onto the ship.  The dean¡¯s name is Bullido. He is old and looks very old. His skin is like a layer of old bark that will dry and peel off at any time.  He brought many tutors from the college with him on this trip, and almost transferred the backbone of the entire college. It was obvious that he was going to do something big.  As soon as Bullido stepped onto the boat, a sound came from the sound transmission stone on his body. He grabbed the sound transmission stone and asked about the other party's identity.  It turned out that a wizard sent out from the academy wanted to talk to him.  "Dean, things are not going well. People from several major empires seem to want to get involved in the 'Unblocking Ceremony' and rob us of the contents of the Hexagram Secret Society. They have sent many ships and men to the Hexagram Secret Society.  Advance to the ruins of the secret society." The wizard's tone was full of worry.  "Is this news reliable?" Bullido asked with a frown.  "It's very reliable. I found out through various inquiries." "If this is really the case, things will be in trouble. I have a hunch that the seal of the Hexagram Secret Society is likely to be completely lifted this year. If it is really lifted, several major empires  People will definitely snatch the treasures from us, and there will inevitably be a fight. We have spent so many years of hard work on the Hexagram Secret Society site, and it is impossible to give away the treasures to those empires in vain." "The empires are too big.  They are greedy and want to get involved in everything." "If they were not greedy, they would not come all the way to the Blade Sea." "Dean, what should we do if several empires really want to steal those treasures from us.  What to do? We can't really fight against them. " "We at Tears of the Stars Academy have always adhered to the principle of neutrality and do not want to participate in those national disputes, but if someone steps on us and wants to take away what we value.  , We can't just swallow our anger." A sharp look appeared in Blido's old eyes, "Wizards are not easy to bully!" (To be continued)
