Chapter 114 Nameless Town
Richard had already arrived outside the town, and he stopped to observe the town.
The town is not big, there are only about 100 buildings, most of the so-called houses are four walls, and then add a cover to them, and the grandest building in the whole town is only a small two-story building, and it is also extremely simple, it looks like the slums of some big cities in Norland, and it is much stronger than here.
When Richard's eyes fell on the pale black light curtain, he was a little surprised, this light curtain is actually not simple, the power of the rules contained in it is dense and ingenious, and the thin layer of light curtain actually has the effect of shielding and correcting distorted rules, this is by no means a trivial matter, you must know that the time beacon actually plays a similar role.
Inside and outside the light curtain, there are two completely different worlds, and many of the twisted rules are blocked out of the light curtain, and the town should be a fairly normal environment.
At this moment, a group of people came out of the town, including four humans, and three strangely shaped aliens, these aliens had heads similar to those of beasts, and they also walked upright, but their forelimbs were two tentacles.
Richard furrowed his eyebrows, remembering a race: the Tana.
The Tana clan is not well-known in Norland, but among the strong people who explore the void, this clan is quite famous, because the Tana clan is born with spatial abilities, and it is easy to hide themselves in the void, and the speed is also quite fast, they are thieves and thieves in the void world, and many of the places where the strong temporarily store materials have been patronized by them, and even some legendary mages have left their footprints on the half-plane.
If the three aliens are really the Tana tribe, it will not be a trivial matter, the Tana tribe and the dragon are somewhat similar, both individuals are strong and have low fertility, so the number of races is not large.
At this time, an old human man in the center shouted to Richard, "Outsider, where are you from?" ”
The old man didn't know what language he spoke, but Richard was glad that the language magic he had recently solidified was still effective, and when the old man asked a second time, he could already understand and answer.
"Norland. ”
"Norland. The old man was obviously taken aback, but the spear in his hand was slowly lowered, and said, "It's really surprising, there are still people from Norland, are you the new Divine Servant, ah, no, no, no, you don't have the Celestial Radiance of the Divine Favorite, but how can you come here." ”
The old man muttered to himself for a while, then beckoned to Richard and said, "Come in, you can't stay in that ghost place outside." ”
Richard walked towards the old man according to his words, and when he walked through the light curtain, he deliberately slowed down his pace, and realized that the light curtain was really magical, and it did filter out many distorted rules.
The old man's face obviously had traces carved by time and wind and frost, but his eyes were still sharp, and his hand holding the gun was also very steady, he looked at Richard and said: "There are very few people from Norland, it is a promising main plane, and the old men inside can't look down on such a worthless place as the dark region, how did you come here." ”
Richard said calmly: "An accident, I was about to explore a secret place, but I suddenly appeared here for some reason. ”
"An accident, well, just as if it was an accident. The old man shrugged his shoulders and glared at Richard with a knife-sharp gaze, then beckoned to him and said, "Whether it's an accident or some other reason, it doesn't make a difference now anyway, come with me, there are still some empty houses in the town, you can find a place to live in them." ”
"Aren't there any hotels here? Richard asked.
"Do you think there's going to be a hotel in this damn place, but there are taverns, and you can always come and sit if you wish, that's the only entertainment we have in town, and there's even liquor sold. ”
Speaking of spirits, the old man's throat slid up and down noticeably.
Richard followed the old man to the other side of the town, where several houses were empty, and as Richard had seen outside the town, these so-called houses were simply shacks, and he couldn't even stand up straight in them.
There were only very basic facilities in the room, a wooden board was a bed, a few stones were tables and chairs, and a stove pit was dug in the corner of the room, but there were no pots, no bowls, and no doors or windows in the house.
Several houses were of the same shape, and Richard pointed to one at random and moved in.
At this moment he sat down on the stone and began to comb through the information he had received, and now Richard understood why the old man would assign him a house directly, because he had nowhere to go.
In this dark region, transportation and information are extremely difficult, and the people in the town only know that there is a city in the distance, but the news comes from a traveler from that city.
It was a mighty warrior, but he was dying when he crossed the vast wasteland to the town, and he died soon after leaving the city in its place.
But none of the people in the town have the strength to go so far, go to that city to see, once they get out of the light curtain, they will be hurt by the twisted rules all the time, even if they are strong warriors, they can't bear much time, so until the last resort, the people in the town will not get out of the light curtain.
Most of the life in the town has been growing up in the dark region, where humans and aliens can always coexist, and without the power of the group, I am afraid that no one can live here, and there are very few people like Richard, who have come from the wasteland outside the light curtain, and it is said that the first one has lived here for hundreds of years.
Richard sat in the hut, motionless, and continued to parse the rules, this is a strange world, Richard has not yet found any way to replenish his mana, he has not yet felt hungry, but the body is indeed being consumed bit by bit, so he must save every bit of mana and body.
After the old man had thrown Richard into this hut, he never appeared again, and when he looked out of the doorway, there was not a single man in the streets, nor birds, beasts, or insects, nor any life, and the sky was always gray and black, and had not changed, and there was no day or night, and no change in the weather.
After about a day, Richard finally parsed a new rule, which made Richard's sense of the dark area clearer, and his movements became more steady.
The basic rules of the entire dark region constitute the world are the same, but all the rules are distorted here, and the way of distortion is also a kind of rule, through the observation of the past few days, Richard has successfully established a model.
In order to make one's perception coincide with the Dark Regions, one needs to analyze sixteen major rules, and in order to use the power of the Dark Regions' rules, one needs to analyze the additional sixteen rules.
Now, Richard has unwittingly figured out the six rules, so there are no major problems with basic actions.
It was only then that Richard decided to visit the town, especially the tavern, which seemed to be the only special place here, and could not be missed.
The town was still empty, but as he passed an intersection, Richard suddenly heard the sound of a loud fight, and he immediately looked to the source of the sound, and saw that at the edge of the light curtain, a lizardman-like alien was fighting a Tana, and several townspeople were watching.
The Tana were the ones Richard had seen, and the lizardmen were the raw faces.
Richard walked over quietly and asked a Terran, "What's the matter?" ”
The man shrugged his shoulders and said, "An outsider who has just come to the Dark Realm, who has not recognized his own situation, thinks that he is here to go wild, and still thinks that he is invincible in his own plane. ”
The battle between the lizardmen and the Tana is not fierce, and even somewhat comical.
The attacks of the lizardmen are all east and west, and there is no accuracy at all, and the steps are also staggering, like a drunk who has drunk too much, how can he have the demeanor of a real strong man.
The Tana man was obviously teasing it, and sometimes even so arrogant that he dangled his tail in front of the lizardman's big mouth, so angry that the lizardman was so angry that he grabbed and bitten, desperately trying to break the tail, but when he opened his mouth, he insisted on biting into the air, and the more he tried to get his head right, the bigger it became.
Richard immediately saw that this lizardman was still in a state of perceptual disorder, and this kind of race often had strong fighting talents, but it was much worse in terms of analyzing the rules, and it was indeed unlucky to fall into the dark region.
Under Richard's observation, there are actually many unnatural things about the Tana's movements, but it is well disguised, but this can't hide from Richard, who has a real vision.
"Enough of it's time to play, we're waiting for fresh meat. Another Tana shouted.
The Tana nodded during the battle, and suddenly pulled out a short knife, rushed to the lizardman, stabbed it hard into its soft abdomen, and then slashed down hard.
Blood and flesh gushed out of the lizardman's belly, and the man standing next to Richard found a large basin out of nowhere and placed it directly under the lizardman, catching all the flesh and blood that flowed out.
The onlookers also rushed up and pressed the lizardman down, and several people took out daggers and short knives, and in a blink of an eye, the lizardman was on the spot.
Richard's eyes narrowed slightly, and the place seemed to be more brutal than expected, and a moment later, the lizardman was reduced to a piece of meat.
The man walked past Richard with a basin of blood floating with internal organs, and said: "You didn't contribute, so you didn't score, you must not be used to it now, many people were like you when they first came, and after a while, you will be like us, but you are a lucky guy, old Barr is very interested in you, he won't let us touch you." ”
"Who is old Barr. Richard asked.
"It's the old man you saw when you came, and you can always find him in the tavern. ”
At this time, one of the two Tana men came over carrying a lizardman's hind leg, and one of the strongest stared at Richard, and suddenly handed the hind leg, pointed to Richard's knife case, and said, "Change this for you." ”
"No, I don't change. Richard, of course, refused.
The Tana man bared his two terrifying fangs and roared, "The consequences of rejecting the blood fangs are very severe, tender skin boy. ”
"No, I don't change. Richard said one more thing, then turned and walked towards the center of town.
