Build the Traveler Alliance from Scratch

Chapter 77 Rising Tide and Ebbing Tide

After an unknown number of years, the gap in the void finally ushered in the first living alien life.

Dressed in white, Zhao Lihe, who was dressed as an ancient man, got off the black off-road vehicle. With the light of the off-road vehicle, he stared in shock at the tall mountain that was shrouded in darkness ahead.

In the center of the mountain peak, where the light illuminates, there is a stone-step mountain road.

The stone steps go straight up, all the way to the summit, disappearing into the darkness beyond the lights.

Seeing the scene in front of him, Zhao Lihe was shocked and couldn't help muttering.

"Brother, where is this...?"

"boom!"

Lin Zhongtian closed the car door casually, walked to Zhao Lihe's side, and looked up at the mountain in front of him together.

"Who knows, I only know that this is a transit station for countless worlds—see the sky full of stars above your head?"

Following Lin Zhongtian's gaze, Zhao Lihe raised his head, looked at the dots of silver light on the black curtain above his head, and nodded awkwardly: "I see."

Lin Zhongtian stretched out his hand with a smile, pointed at them and said softly: "Then every star is a world!"

After speaking, he turned around with Zhao Lihe's shoulders again, pointed to the big silver light ball with a length and width of about three meters behind the off-road vehicle, and said softly: "Behind that silver light ball is the embroidered place where you are." Spring Knife World."

"..."

Zhao Lihe was shocked and speechless. It took a long time before he regained his senses and regained his ability to speak. He said in a difficult tone: "So brother, you are not a traveler in the same world as me, but a time traveler traveling in a different world?"

"Hmm... It's not wrong to understand this way, but the world you live in is indeed the first world I've been to."

"..." Zhao Lihe turned around, looked at the mountain peak shrouded in darkness and said, "Then what is this place, hasn't it become the main god space of the main god space?"

"Of course not, as I said just now, this place is just a transfer station between worlds!"

"Then why is the world I live in the world of the movie "Embroidered Spring Knife"?"

Lin Zhongtian frowned: "This is also one of the biggest doubts in my heart."

Zhao Lihe took a deep breath, then jumped twice, frowned and said: "It is the gap between worlds, why is there air with the same composition as the earth, and the gravity I feel seems to be the same as the earth."

As he said that, Zhao Lihe raised his leg again, stepped on the solid ground under his feet, and said worriedly: "There is still this land, this mountain peak, and this stone step road, everywhere is full of man-made traces..."

"You are calm and alert!"

Lin Zhongtian laughed, shook his head and said, "Don't worry about it, the air is sucked in from your world, and the gravity is because the mountain peak under our feet is revolving around a certain point. I'll go up and have a look, don't you know?"

Lin Zhongtian patted Zhao Lihe's shoulder, turned on the high-power flashlight he was carrying, and stepped on the stone steps first.

Although Zhao Lihe was full of doubts, but out of trust in Lin Zhongtian, he still followed behind him.

Not long after, the two reached the end of the stone steps, looked up and saw the tall palace.

The palace as a whole is made of rocks, with a single color tone, but it is full of quaint and wild atmosphere.

Entering the hall, eight white stone pillars stood on both sides. The light in Lin Zhongtian's hand flashed across the stone pillars, and he could vaguely see many exquisite dragon-shaped patterns carved on them.

Zhao Lihe looked at the appearance of the palace, and said softly: "This palace seems a bit monotonous."

Lin Zhongtian replied casually: "It's normal to use local materials, and it's normal to be monotonous."

Take local materials...

Zhao Lihe was slightly taken aback: "Could it be that elder brother knows how this palace was built?"

Lin Zhongtian waved his hand, and continued to move forward: "I also guessed - Nuo, have you seen the altar in front, the ones on it are the things I moved from your world and another world."

"..."

Zhao Lihe stopped and followed the light to look at the huge altar in front of him.

This altar is about 15 meters long and about five meters wide. It is the largest altar that Zhao Lihe has ever seen in his life. Coupled with this huge empty palace, Zhao Lihe feels his own insignificance, and has a feeling of coming back to ancient times. The illusion of the prehistoric giant's residence.

There are many objects on the altar table. On the far left is a large number of various gold, silver and jade, which are of great value. In the middle are neatly arranged guns and ammunition, which are rich in variety and have a huge time span. The 21st century has it all.

As for the far right, there is an ordinary iron cage, inside which is a sleeping wild pheasant.

When Zhao Lihe saw the pile of neatly arranged firearms, Zhao Lihe was immediately attracted to it. He quickly stepped forward, picked up a Mosin Nagant M1891 rifle by the light, and caressed it fondly. Gun body with traces of time.

"Brother, you got these from another world?"

"Yes."

"So that world is in the modern era—is it also a movie world?"

"Well, ever heard of John Wick?"

"Ah?!" Zhao Lihe couldn't help turning his head and asked in surprise, "Quick pursuit?"

Lin Zhongtian smiled and nodded, then lifted the iron cage on the far right, glanced at Zhao Lihe and said: "Okay, don't worry about this, don't you want to know why there are so many artificial traces here, then come with me first .”

"..."

Zhao Lihe glanced at Lin Zhongtian on the right, then at Mosingana in his hand, hesitated for a while, and reluctantly put it back to its original position, turned around and followed Lin Zhongtian's footsteps.

Soon, the two walked out through the back door of the palace.

What catches the eye is a U-shaped cliff. There is no grass growing on the edge of the cliff, only a few large rocks here and there.

Zhao Lihe followed Lin Zhongtian to the edge of the cliff, looked down along the light, there was a sea of ​​gray mist rolling under the cliff, like thick dark clouds with turbulent waves, brewing unknown dangers, it was daunting.

Just when Zhao Lihe hadn't recovered from this shocking scene, Lin Zhongtian suddenly threw the iron cage off the cliff.

The sleeping pheasant in the cage woke up from mid-air, flapped its wings frantically, and uttered a cry full of fear.

But no matter how hard it struggles, it cannot escape the fate of falling into the sea of ​​gray mist together with the iron cage.

In the next second, the turbulent gray cloud completely engulfed the iron cage and the pheasant.

Zhao Lihe's eyes widened, and he couldn't help taking a few steps back, his face showing fear.

He clearly saw that the moment the pheasant came into contact with the gray mist, the gray mist frantically rushed towards the pheasant like a shark smelling blood, completely dissolving its flesh and blood in just a moment.

"This... what is this?"

Standing on the edge of the cliff, Zhao Lihe couldn't help asking a question out of fear.

Lin Zhongtian glanced at him: "This is the gray mist energy I mentioned, and the jade pendant I gave you is also this thing."

Zhao Lihe was startled when he heard the words, touched the jade pendant he was wearing next to him, and murmured: "But brother, didn't you say that this kind of energy is life energy that helps life evolve?"

"That's right, but too much tonic is poison. I don't need to explain the dosage aspect to you, right?"

Lin Zhongtian turned his head, looked at the sea of ​​gray fog and clouds under the cliff and explained softly: "As far as I guess, there will be a riot of gray fog every once in a while, just like the ebb and flow of the tide. When the tide rises, everything will be covered by the gray fog." The sea of ​​mist is submerged, and when the tide ebbs, this mountain peak will be revealed from the sea of ​​mist."

"Those things that have artificial marks may be left by people who have entered here at low tide before."

"As for those people, there are probably only two endings, either to die of old age with a secret, or to be swallowed by the sea of ​​gray fog."

Lin Zhongtian was talking nonsense seriously, but Zhao Lihe listened thoughtfully and nodded in agreement.

After Lin Zhongtian finished speaking, Zhao Lihe sighed softly and said, "Brother's words are very true. After all, no one knows how long this cycle is. During the high tide, you can't enter. Forcing entry is only a dead end."

"In this case, once a high tide event occurs, you can only choose to abandon this place."

Speaking of this, Zhao Lihe paused, and said with a wry smile: "Brother, you brought me here to tell me the news, aren't you afraid of the sudden gray fog and tide incident?"
