Chapter 1009: An Unreal Village

~Date: ~November 06~

It's a wonderful situation, we originally came here to unlock the secrets of the Green Star, which should be the legacy of the old empire tens of thousands of years ago, a high-tech planet warship, well, at least a planet fortress, I think I'll encounter layers of encrypted databases here, criss-crossing starship bridges, or automatic defense robots armed to the heels, and even a few waves of dormant Elder Guardians can pop out, and then I will lead this group of girls whose combat power breaks through the sky all the way to kill them vigorously, In the star core database, some old accounts are poured out - this is the normal development of Mulai.

But in the end, it was like this: we did cross two starship bridges, and we came across a high-tech complex, but we ended up with a low-gravity "satellite" floating in the center of the earth (I can only name it that, how to call this small planet mothballed in the core of the earth is a problem, it is not appropriate to always call it a small green ball, so Tavel proposed to call it a "geocentric satellite", who said that a satellite can only revolve around the planet?). It's not the same to stuff it into the planet and pack it away), this low-gravity moon is lush and green, under the protection of an old-fashioned shield system, resisting the surrounding geocentric environment of thousands of degrees, there are countless crazy plants that are as huge as the fairy tale world, but ninety-nine percent of them are mass projections that shatter when pinched, and the only tangible thing on the ground is the vine that seems to wrap the entire geocentric satellite, well, in addition, we also met a messy little girl, who has a bit of a problem with visual intelligence, This kind of child thrown into the temple of the goddess of life may not be able to be elected as a class leader for three years......

"It's rude for you to think so." My sister reminded me very seriously. I kept a spiritual connection with her, and began to complain about this elf-like little girl in a casual conversation, and then I was educated.

"It's true that she's not very smart—naïve, I should say." My sister quickly picked up the second half of the sentence.

It was strange that the little girl who tried to repel the intruder with a toy bow and arrow had broken her knee ♀, she was a mass projection, and the mass of plants she fell down was also a mass projection, and it stands to reason that a normal projection generation device would not have been able to cause damage to two mass projections during the collision, but it happened, she fell and injured her knee. And it looks quite painful, which makes Sandora curious: the projection generation facilities here have too many unnecessary functions attached to them, so as to make the environment here seem as real and credible as possible, the quality projection technique used by the Xiang Apostle is just to create some tools and working environment for himself, and the quality projection here seems to be in a virtual world, I think the aborigines living here are like those players trapped in virtual online games, who have mixed fantasy and reality together, Is this what this place is for?

An illusory ideal world that is still lush after the end of the world? So what's going on with the aborigines here? The little girl in front of her didn't look like she had experienced the end of the world. It's more like she was born and raised here since she was a child.

Regardless of the truth. Anyway, I still have to carry the little girl who broke her knee on my back and continue to move forward, endure her 100,000 for something, and make a high gesture of "I'm not Lolicon" in Lin Xue's evil smile. And you have to calm down at all times so that you don't get angry because the troublesome ghost on your back stabs your ears with arrows from time to time, which is a complicated job. Especially when the other party is completely unable to point out where the way is, the last request is even more difficult.

"Do you know where your home is?"

After the other party stabbed the arrow into my neck again, I finally couldn't help but speak, "Also, what's your name?" ”

"You can't just tell people your name, and you're still an intruder." The little girl replied very firmly, "Just go any further" and turned left...... It may also be a right turn, anyway, I will tell you, not far from our village, such a big village, the big patriarch happened to be a guest in the village for the past two days. ”

"Peace of mind," Lin Xue glanced at me with a wicked smile, "It's really coming soon, and there's really a settlement in front of you." ”

"Did you find anything?" I remained silent and said to everyone in the spirit link, "The gravity here is a little bigger and more limited than on the moon, and the Zhengqi Road floated up accidentally, but this little girl didn't seem to feel it at all, she just walked with a down-to-earth feeling, and she also broke her knee on the ground." ”

"Because this is a mass projection-dominated environment, more than 90 percent of everything around her and the little girl herself are mass projections," Sandora responded, "Regardless of gravity in the real environment, this little girl seems to live in an 'environment' where gravity is close to Earth, and based on her size and habits, I deduce that the gravity of the environment she feels should be about the same size as the Earth, close to the surface gravity of Green Star." For a quality projection, the perception of the environment is quite easy to deceive. ”

This is a strange world where reality and phantom exist at the same time, we are walking in the real world, but this projection girl is convinced of the message from the phantom, and the two of us can communicate normally in this situation, which is really amazing.

Walking in this situation is a bit troublesome, because my sister doesn't want the little girl to see that our walking posture is weird, so we have to ignore the surrounding gravity environment, and use their own methods to "keep our feet on the ground".

After walking in this unpleasant state for ten minutes, we can be considered to have reached the end: an elven village surrounded by plants.

The village is not large, it looks like there are only a dozen or so households, and the radius of the village will not exceed three or four hundred meters, and the ← villages that are sparsely populated between the households are surrounded by a circle of thin and tall gray "mushrooms" that are more than ten meters high, these mushrooms act as a natural fence for the village, and between the mushrooms and the mushrooms are thick and heavy fences woven with plant fibers, which is regarded as the village wall. There are also many smaller "mushrooms" growing on the ground in the middle of the village. And those houses are built on the handles of these mushrooms, as if the tree houses ♀ were built after hollowing out the trunks, and some mushrooms are not the same as I remember, judging by the cross-sections ♀ of those doors and windows, some mushrooms are probably some kind of woody plant - well, it's all in such a strange place, don't worry about woody plants.

I don't know what kind of habits the inhabitants of this weird, mass-projected world are like, but it's clearly a leisure time at this point in time, with villagers wandering around the open spaces of the village. Or chat in the shade with a drink beneath the big mushroom house, a tiny planet with halo circles that permeate the atmosphere high in the sky within its shield layer, providing light to the earth below, and it's daytime and the light is a little intense.

From the outside, it is a simple and peaceful village in the woods, full of fairy tales and legends, and even if there is anything striking about it, it is only that the inhabitants have the characteristics of elves, but when you think about it, everything here is a lifeless and disembodied projection of mass. I felt a strange feeling on my body, and the scene in front of me became more and more unreal.

The arrival of the outsiders caught the attention of the villagers, and the first few passers-by who saw us looked at each other nervously, and then ran back to their respective houses as fast as they could. When I came out, I already had all kinds of weapons in my hands, and the woman and the child who did not hold the weapons looked at Nirvana, who was also facing the enemy, and two people saw the strange little girl I was carrying on my back. There was a burst of exclamation.

"Daddy! Mom! I am back! ”

The strange little girl jumped off my back quickly, and in two or three steps—she fell to the ground, and she couldn't run steadily when her leg was not in trouble, not to mention that she was still hurting her knee.

A young man and a woman not far away exclaimed softly, and then ran over as fast as they could, but we were closer, and my sister stepped forward to help the strange little girl and slapped comfortingly, the twelve-year-old child was supposed to have passed the age of childhood. But this little girl is obviously not in a hurry, coaxing like a child, and it is precisely because of this that the bear child of the elder sister controls the aura and achieves the effect of increasing the skill level of the other party by three, and when the little girl's parents bend down to check their daughter's injury, the little girl is already happy.

"This is my mom and dad, thank you for taking me home," the little girl nodded politely to us, and then introduced the stranger in front of her to her parents, "Mom and Dad, this is the intruder I met outside, it's a good intruder." ”

What a mess!

The little girl's parents were in confusion on their faces, and then quietly protected their daughter behind them, and the nervous villagers around them held their own weapons: spatulas, spoons and shovels, and formed a loose encirclement, looking like Nirvana to defend against foreign enemies, but this rule did not give people any pressure, and I did not feel the murderous spirit or anything like that from these people, their reaction now was not so much to meet the enemy, but to instinctively pick up the self-defense under the effect of confusion and fear, and then leaned over to see what was going on - the crowd of onlookers, I defined them.

"Who are you and how did you get here?" The little girl's father quickly calmed down and asked loudly while protecting his wife and daughter.

Even though all the things in front of Zhilu Dao were mass projections, I felt as if they didn't realize this, so I replied seriously, "We'll come from above." ”

I pointed to the sky, this geocentric satellite is wrapped in a layer of atmosphere and shield, with its own independent light adjustment, so the dark red upside-down earth flowing with a dazzling magma river is not very clear here, through the layers of clouds and a certain shield layer with a certain masking effect, I can only see a little dark red blurred shadow looming in the clouds, I wonder if the residents here can understand what they mean: do they know that there is another land in the sky above their world?

"Above?!" The villagers were in an uproar, and the little girl's father exclaimed, "You are from the Flame Heaven? ”

The other party exclaimed while carefully observing our appearance: "It seems that it is indeed different from us, did you fall?" Is it still burning there? As he spoke, his gaze fell on Lilina again, who was still in a state of transformation at this time, looking like a blood elf, "Huh? This girl also came from the Flame Sky? ”

"So you call the mantle the Flame Heaven, and that's a fitting fit," Lilina blinked, "but we're from above. Penetrated thousands of kilometers - by the way, do you know how much a kilometer is on the road? ”

The other party didn't seem to have the kilometer in the unit of measurement, but he still understood what Lilina meant] The surprise was even greater: "Higher? You gouged through the flaming sky? ”

Sandora and I glanced at each other, and the other's voice came from the spiritual link: "Ah Jun, they don't seem to know that Lu Dao lives in the center of the earth—and they don't know that Lu Dao lives in a projection world. ”

This is a bit different from what we had at the beginning, but I'm not in a hurry to find out right away, anyway, Green Star is now docked in the Imperial Capital, and there is time to figure everything out. I just feel that there is a bit of a black humor in the situation in front of me: these aborigines who exist in the form of mass projections have no idea of everything on the surface, and they don't even know where their home planet has been dragged by people. Their knowledge of the world realm was limited to the "normal-looking" world realm of the earth in which they lived, and the burning mantle above their heads, which was regarded as the sky, and to them, visitors from outside the "Flame Heaven" were incredible, because it required cutting through the sky......

Are they really projections derived from some ontology? Or is it just a virtual character that has evolved procedurally and has no ontology? In the spiritual link, the more cautious sister raised such a question. Suppose these villagers here are regular quality projections. Then they must have their own ontology somewhere (I think of the huge group of tombs I saw in the Ground Ridge earlier). The bodies that sleep in the countless dormant pods), which means that they should have a fairly high level of scientific knowledge: primitive people can't operate projectors, but something is wrong right now. They look more like the elves in fantasy novels who live in the jungle and have never even seen a human stone castle - I see it, and they fetch water from wells.

The water is also a phantom. But it's definitely a virtual item created by the program.

Of course, there is also the possibility that the high-tech race that transformed the Green Star is actually no longer here, and these elves living in a low-tech state are actually some kind of experimental subjects, they themselves do not know how to use the projection device, but they are stuffed into the hibernation pod by the original Green Star builders. Transfer souls and stuff to this place: the tiny planet in the center of the earth is actually a biological laboratory.

The more I think about it, the more I feel that I am really unjustly panicked if I don't write the script, these stories you can just make up two people who love to die and love to live to the most difficult time when they come out of the cast list and can't become dog men and women ※ Hollywood throws it, that's at least seven or eight little golden men......

My sister's affinity and Lilina's elven appearance finally worked, after a long day of communication, the vigilant villagers around them laid down their weapons, I found that these elves are quite cautious and a little nervous guys, although we are "invaders", but there is no hostility at all when we come here, they are already like great enemies, is it possible that in this society, as long as the creatures that dress and look different from their own race can be regarded as enemies?

The strange little girl was taken away by her parents, and the villagers dispersed, and at the end of the day, a male elf who looked like a middle-aged human came over and introduced himself as the village chief.

"I'm sorry, we've grown up listening to legends, anything that comes out of the Burning Sky is extremely dangerous, and any alien who appears in the big forest could be an intruder," the middle-aged man led us to the largest treehouse in the village, "The legend goes like this. ”

"Oh." Noncommittal, simply perfunctory, there is so much confusion left in this quirky place right now, and I decided to keep a low profile until I discover more secrets.

The elf's treehouse was built in a mushroom stalk, but the nirvana inside was not what was expected, it was not damp at all, and it was well-lit, and the curved walls around it were dry and neat, with a very soft white light shining through the mushroom inside: it turned out that these walls were transparent when viewed from the inside.

The chief's house didn't look much decorated, everything was just the simplest necessities, furniture made of wood chips, hanging chairs and tapestries made of plant fibers, and a few knick-knacks that could not be seen in texture, were all there was to the first floor: because the mushroom handles were so high, and every house here was several stories high, and these buildings of local materials were destined to be impossible to develop into commercial buildings and courtyard houses.

"Our Grand Matriarch is taking care of things, and she will come to meet you guests herself."

The middle-aged man let us rest in the chairs that were a little smaller, and then got up again to prepare drinks and food, which seemed to be very hospitable and somewhat to make up for the offense. Lilina writhed restlessly in the middle of the sling chair made of plant fibers, and then jumped down and burrowed into my arms, burying her head in silence.

"What's this girl's nerves?"

I looked at a few people around me with a smile and a smile, Lin Xue looked disdainful and thoughtful, and Shandora looked at this side with a smile, and my sister poked me in the head: "Ah Jun, self-respect." ”

It's quite heavy, and the combined weight of the two of them is about to collapse this not very sturdy sling chair!

"Boss, I don't like it here," Lilina said in a sullen voice, "there's a very large life being waking up, and I feel like I'm being wrapped in it, and the lifeless projection here is uncomfortable—people are too sensitive. ”

Is it necessary for this girl to break out a normal sentence into the second half of the sentence that is very abnormal?!
