Chapter 19 Heading to the Border
The pterodactyl in the sky is flying towards the jungle.
They come and go as fast as they come.
So much so that compared with what just happened, you will feel that it is a dream, so unreal.
Zhang Jianjun's eyes were more focused on No. 1, whose whole body was flowing with silver waves. Lan Meier's knife was extremely powerful, but all the damage was automatically repaired the moment before it fell.
"T1000..." Zhang Jianjun murmured, "I never thought you would own such a thing."
"You also know?" Shen Yi glanced at Zhang Jianjun.
"I've never eaten pork but I've seen pigs running, and I haven't been in the world of Terminator missions, at least I've seen this movie...it's so special." Zhang Jianjun looked at Shen Yi with more and more incredulous eyes.
How many "magic weapons" does he have?
"That's right." Shen Yi accepted No. 1 into the bloody coat of arms, obviously not intending to continue this topic.
"Can you tell me how you did it?" the boy asked suddenly.
Shen Yi knew the pterodactyls he was referring to. If Zhang Jianjun was concerned about No. 1, then the boy was more concerned about what happened just now.
He replied: "My ability is called communication, and I can establish a conscious connection with all life. So I tried to communicate with them. Of course, they didn't welcome me very much at first, so the reaction was a bit violent."
Shen Yi smiled wryly and shrugged.
"It's that simple?" The young man was a little skeptical, and after thinking for a while he added: "My ability is to communicate with plants, I can observe the surroundings through them, obtain some information, and occasionally instruct them, but that is not easy. "
Shen Yi smiled: "It's really not easy. Every life has its own unique emotions. They don't have all kinds of emotions like human beings, and they don't have all kinds of complex expressions like human beings. As mentally retarded Creatures, they usually only have primitive impulses and instincts to devour flesh and blood. They cannot be threatened by death, and cannot be tempted by interests. They have no emotion, no rationality, and only a crazy desire to attack. To persuade such an existence is like reciting aloud to a stone Love letter. The worst thing is that you are not facing a single stone, but a group of stones..."
Speaking of this, Shen Yi smiled wryly.
He shook his head: "So it's impossible for me to persuade them like negotiating with people... I can't do that at all."
"Then they..." Zhang Jianjun pointed suspiciously at the pterodactyl that disappeared in the distance.
Shen Yi sighed: "I don't have the ability to make them stop killing and betray their instincts, but at least I can make them temporarily divert their targets... I told them that there are more adventurers on the other side of the forest. They are easier to deal with, meat It's also more fragrant. And if you don't go there quickly, you may be snatched up by other fierce beasts, and imply that the meat of us is very smelly and not tasty at all... just to express these two meanings It took a lot of effort to get out."
Everyone suddenly realized.
Lan Meier couldn't help interjecting: "Then if they can't find..."
Shen Yi replied lazily: "They will go crazy with anger, and then come back to find us. I guess even if we really don't eat them, they will have a big appetite."
Lan Meier turned pale with fright: "Isn't that more troublesome?"
Shen Yi looked at Lan Meier very strangely: "Do you think there is any difference between an angry butcher and a non-angry butcher to a gallows sheep?"
Lan Meier was speechless and speechless.
Then Shen Yi sat back in the car and said: "If you don't want to be chased by them again, let's get out of here before they come back to find us. Don't worry, pterodactyls have good vision, but not very good sense of smell. As long as we run fast Fast enough to shake them off easily."
This is the real reason why he dared to deceive this group of fierce beasts in the air.
The car quickly left this area full of death.
Along the way, Lan Meier kept looking back. About twenty minutes later, Lan Meier finally let out a sigh of relief after confirming that the pterodactyls did not chase after her.
Only then did she realize that she seemed to have something to say about her previous behavior, and she said to Shen Yi: "I'm sorry for what happened just now..."
"I don't need to apologize." Shen Yi interrupted her: "I never like to hear people say sorry or thank you to me. In my opinion, to be apologized or thanked means to be taken from myself. I got benefits, but I didn’t get anything in return. It’s a pity that I am a pragmatic person, and I hate things that give but don’t get anything in return. So you want to get my understanding, yes, please show your strength and prove your value , and then when I need you, make your due contribution, that is the best and most sincere apology."
Lan Meier opened her mouth, she didn't expect this man to be so direct, she didn't know what to say for a while.
As if he heard something, Zhang Jianjun said: "With your strength, there is no need to form a team with us. Since you don't like giving without getting anything in return, but you keep helping us, does that mean you will use us?" place? That's why you want us to hand over all the random teleportation scrolls."
Shen Yi was silent for a while, and finally nodded: "Yes, I'm going to a place, it might be better if I can have some help."
"Where are you going?" Zhang Jianjun asked.
After hesitating again, Shen Yi finally replied: "Border."
—————————
The so-called border, as the name suggests, is the place where East Second District connects with other regions. Each region has multiple frontiers leading to different regions. Due to its location, this is also the place where adventurers in this area are most likely to come into contact with adventurers from other areas, and therefore it is also the most chaotic and dangerous place.
The most dangerous border is the main border between high and low difficulty areas.
Here, you not only have to be careful of ferocious beasts in the wilderness, but also pay attention to the attacks from adventurers in difficult areas.
Humans and beasts, as well as complex terrain, constitute a natural death zone. In this zone, no one dares to be careless.
It is worth noting that adventurers are not the only ones who can cross the border, fierce beasts can also.
As long as those beasts are willing, the beasts in the third difficulty area can run to the second difficulty area to show off their power wantonly. Of course, for most ferocious beasts, this kind of behavior is more like some kind of habitual visiting, occasionally going to the neighbor's yard to urinate, and then returning to their own territory later in the day sleep. So if your luck is not very good, you may encounter a beast or a group of beasts from the difficult area at the border at any time. Maybe they just ran to the next door to have a toothpaste because they were bored.
Even if you don't encounter any beasts from other regions, those beasts from this region will not let you go. Compared with the ferocious beasts inside the region, the ferocious beasts that can live on the border are often the most vicious and difficult to deal with in this region. Only they dare to resist the invasion of beasts from other regions and fight to protect their homeland.
Occasionally they will run to the difficult area, and then be beaten back in disgrace.
Of course, the greater the risk, the greater the reward.
As a low-difficulty adventurer, if you can kill a beast in a high-difficulty area, you will get double rewards. If you kill a ferocious beast in the fourth difficulty area as an adventurer of the second difficulty, then you can even get four times the reward. Every time you increase a level, the reward is doubled.
This is the beauty of wilderness.
Chaotic, dangerous, every step of the crisis, but also contains countless opportunities...
Whether it was Zhang Jianjun, Lan Meier or the gardener, they finally agreed to go to the border with Shen Yi.
It's not because they know how to repay their kindness, but what Shen Yi said: To a goat on the gallows, there is no difference between an angry butcher and a non-angry butcher.
The border may be dangerous, but even if they are not at the border, they still cannot face any kind of beast.
In this case, why not take a trip to the border with Shen Yi, holding this "big tree", the chances of survival will be more.
What's interesting is that from Shen Yi's inconspicuousness at the beginning to Shen Yi's becoming a reliable "big tree", it took only one day.
Black Lightning was driving fast on the grassland, followed closely by two wild horses.
The grassland under the night is cool and gloomy, with the lonely atmosphere unique to the wilderness. Looking around, there is no one in sight.
Occasionally, there would be some solitary wild beasts strolling on the grassland. Before the other party approached, the car would gallop away, and then there would be an angry roar.
Shen Yi feels like a modern person who has traveled back to the Jurassic era, with technological weapons beyond the age, running freely in the vicissitudes of the historical environment.
There are ferocious beasts, tall trees, clear lakes, beautiful grasslands...
Shen Yi suddenly thought of the photojournalist walking on the African prairie. On a whim, he asked everyone: "Does any of you have a camera?"
The boy asked Shen Yi: "Who would waste precious blood points to buy that thing?"
Shen Yi shrugged regretfully: "It's a pity, I suddenly discovered that if we can look at this wilderness from a different angle, maybe we will have a different and beautiful feeling."
"A different kind of beautiful feeling?" Zhang Jianjun looked at Shen Yi in amazement: "This place brings me only cruelty and blood, death and danger, what beauty can there be?"
"That depends on what angle you look at this issue." Shen Yi replied: "If we abandon the utilitarian vision, don't think about those rewards, and fantasize that we are in an environment similar to the earth, You will find that this is actually a very interesting place. I mean, this is a world where humans and animals are co-evolving. It perfectly reproduces the mode of getting along with nature from another angle... People live with solid defenses in the city, while the wild beasts live in the suburbs. Occasionally, people will hunt wild beasts for their flesh, bones or fur. If the hunter is unlucky or not strong enough, then he will be killed by the wild beasts in turn. We eat them. And when we get wealth from wild animals, we will go to the store to sell these goods, and then exchange them for more powerful weapons, so that we can hunt again, and so on. This is so similar to the history of the earth. elephant?"
"and then?"
"Then?" Shen Yi thought for a while and replied: "Then one day, people will kill all the wild animals and make nature barren. So in order to preserve the last wild animals, people have to set aside an area for wild animals And since then... those ferocious and terrifying beasts have become ornamental animals. The wilderness that once made us talk about it has become a sightseeing area..."
Zhang Jianjun looked at Shen Yi in amazement, he couldn't figure out how Shen Yi's mind turned, and he could think of such a rich content. After thinking for a while, he said: "I don't know how long the bloody city has existed, but I know that the wilderness has never been and cannot be reduced to the point you said. If the history of the earth is the history of civilization's victory over barbarism, Then in the bloody city, barbarism defeats civilization."
"That may be because you have never tried to change anything in the past." Shen Yi said with a smile: "The scenery here is really good, and the appearance of the beasts is also very distinctive. If you can take an artistic photo, then post it back It is also a good enjoyment to appreciate slowly on the walls of the residence."
Speaking of this, Shen Yi laughed, leaned back on the back seat, relaxed himself as much as possible, then closed his eyes slightly, and murmured: "Imagine that we are in the beautiful Yellowstone Park natural resources protection The area is like a group of tourists from Europe, wearing cameras and straw hats, capturing the beautiful scenery everywhere. Occasionally, some wolves or tigers will attack us, causing us to scream, but at the same time bringing us The thrill of life."
He opened his eyes: "Then, we are intoxicated in this beautiful atmosphere, forgetting the troubles of the world and hustle and bustle, and throw ourselves into the embrace of nature."
Zhang Jianjun muttered: "I bet this is definitely not the meaning of the wilderness."
"Of course, this is just an imagination." Shen Yi nodded: "The meaning of the wilderness is a simulated battlefield, and the mission world is just a training base. When one day we walk out of the training base and enter the fifth difficulty, our Life will no longer be based on training, but on adapting to this simulated battlefield, just like a battlefield practice. Until one day we finish our homework on the simulated battlefield and go out from here, at that time, welcome our It will be the real battlefield..."
Speaking of the latter, Shen Yi's voice had already dropped.
"What did you say?" Zhang Jianjun asked without hearing his last words.
Shen Yi didn't answer, just took out the handheld computer, and connected it to the on-board computer: "Zeus, start a comprehensive environmental scan and information collection and analysis, and then verify the new data with the existing data."
"Is it possible to start this work at a later date?"
"why?"
"The new program related to the new operation mode of T1000 has entered the final completion stage, and I must call all resources for the final instruction correction."
"How long will it take?"
"It should be finished before dawn."
"Agree to suspend, and start information collection and analysis immediately after completion."
"...I thought you'd at least give me a proper vacation between jobs."
"Does your understanding of human emotions only stop at the stage of laziness and enjoyment? Open your eyes and look at this beautiful grassland. The pursuit and creation of art is also an extremely important part of human emotions."
"...Understood, master. I will start information collection immediately after dawn. Although I can't imagine what kind of behavior it would be to take information photos into artistic photos."
"Artistic material...is a good idea, I hope you don't make those guys look too good." Shen Yi also laughed.
Two hours later, the three vehicles stopped in a secluded wilderness.
Shen Yi used the far-infrared telescope to carefully observe the surroundings, and after confirming that there was no danger, he gave the order: "Frost, we are going to spend the night here, you arrange people to be in charge of the guards, every four hours, and take turns to rest."
The young gardener immediately said: "I can observe the surroundings through the plants, and I will find any living things within 200 meters of the surrounding area."
"Not bad ability, but I would prefer an extra layer of insurance."
"You don't believe me?" The young man looked at Shen Yi.
Shen Yi paused for a moment, then smiled at the boy and said, "No, I just believe in myself more, I hope you don't mind."
The boy shook his head.
Seeing Shen Yi go to a big rock and open his sleeping bag, he suddenly raised his voice: "Now I understand why you let your team members hand over all the equipment to you, because you have never been a person who makes people worry people."
Shen Yi's body shook, and he looked back at the boy. Did he still see it?
"It's late, go to bed early." He said: "Rest well, and you will have strength when you fight."
Saying that he got into the sleeping bag.
Perhaps it was because the two battles consumed too much of his energy, Shen Yi soon fell into a deep sleep.
In a daze, he seemed to hear something.
Someone is approaching me.
Shen Yi opened his eyes, he saw Lan Meier lying beside him, looking at him with a pair of winking eyes, releasing infinite love.
"Hush!" She gestured to Shen Yi to keep silent.
Then she crawled into Shen Yi's sleeping bag.
Shen Yi looked back into the distance, Frost spread his hands and turned his face away.
Shen Yi smiled wryly, Lan Meier had already squeezed into his sleeping bag completely.
The sleeping bag was not big, and it tightly wrapped the two of them together. Lan Meier was completely lying on his body, the clothes on her upper body had been taken off, revealing a pair of plump breasts pressed in front of him. She lightly bit his earlobe and said: " They're all asleep."
"It doesn't matter if you don't fall asleep." Shen Yi replied lightly. He put his hands under the back of his head and looked at Lan Meier who was lying on his body: "Whether it's you or me, I don't care, right?"
Lan Meier froze, she obviously heard the meaning of Shen Yi's words, bit her lips slightly: "I am not such a casual woman."
"Oh?" Shen Yi raised his brows slightly: "A woman took the initiative to run into my sleeping bag in the middle of the night and told me that she is not such a casual woman. What do you want to explain?"
Lan Meier was stunned, and Shen Yi had already pinched her chin: "It doesn't matter to me whether you are a casual woman or not, and I am not interested in hearing what you explain. I don't mind talking to someone I met by chance. Women have a passion, and don't mind paying a small stake for it. The only question is, are you sure you want just a passion, or something else along the way. If it's the former, I can satisfy you. If it is The latter, then I'm afraid you will be disappointed. Business has to be negotiated first, isn't it?"
Lan Meier's face became extremely ugly, she stared fiercely at Shen Yi, after a while she suddenly got out of Shen Yi's sleeping bag, and left holding her clothes.
Thinking about it, I was a little unwilling, and shouted at Shen Yi: "You are a bastard, Shen Yi!"
The shout was so loud that Zhang Jianjun, who was in a deep sleep, was awakened. He rubbed his eyes and asked, "What happened?"
"Go to sleep." The boy turned around: "It's just a stupid woman who failed in heat to vent, it's boring..."
"Oh...that's it." Zhang Jianjun murmured and continued to sleep.
