Egrandine was finally free again.
Nearly half a year ago, I was dizzy and actually thought of sneaking into the team of the Self-Rescue Society to investigate the smuggling nest. I didn't expect that the management ability of the penal colony did not match the information provided by the Light Church. I was killed by the army before I even entered the city. Arrested.
I regretted it and regretted it too late. Anyway, I was very depressed for a while.
He was just depressed rather than living in fear, because the army that captured him was polite and did not torture him.
At first, he thought it was just a show, and he would definitely be tortured and interrogated as time went on. However, within a few days of his arrest, he was locked up in a military prison and no one cared about him!
If he hadn't been able to get his own food in the canteen every day, he would have thought he had been forgotten.
The small prison in the military camp is used to detain soldiers who violate military discipline. Most of them stay for three to six days, and few stay for one month. He is the only regular visitor in the entire small prison. Everyone looks at him when they first arrive. Like a monkey.
It's a pity that although Egrandine is a three-ring magic swordsman, he has never learned the language knowledge at all. If he doesn't understand the language, he can't even scold him back.
Fight... let's forget it.
After being locked up in a dark room for a day, Egrandine realized that fighting was bad behavior.
After being imprisoned for half a year, Egrandine not only did not become thinner, but she was even stronger than when she came in, which was ridiculous.
Because there are all soldiers in the prison, although they are in solitary confinement, they still need to train. Aiglantin also trained with them, and he became stronger as he trained. Such persistent training lasted more than ten years. before.
He was completely accustomed to life in prison. Yesterday, an officer suddenly came to take him out and kicked him out of the North Pass: "You can leave."
Although I didn't understand it, the meaning was too obvious, because the other party returned all his weapons and clothes. I don't know where these things exist, and they were covered with a thick layer of dust.
In addition, he was given a pot of water and a small bag of dry food, as if he was afraid that he would starve to death in front of their house.
Egrandine took stock of his belongings and stood in a daze to the north of the defense line at the North Pass for a long time.
"Where am I? What do I need to do? Who can I ask for help?"
After thinking about it for a long time, I still didn’t get an answer.
If he was released just after being caught, he would definitely find a way to return to the main world, but half a year had passed and he had already forgotten what the line looked like. He didn't even remember whether the location was due north.
Even if he remembered, the changes in the vegetation after half a year were enough to make a person who had only walked once get lost.
After struggling outside the pass for a long time, Eglandin decided to go north and have a look, just in case he could find it.
After all, he is an investigator. If he really does something with his heart, he still thinks of many ways.
Follow the trail.
When he came, there was a camp not very far from the World Gate. Since there was a camp, there must be a need for material transportation. There was no formal road to identify, but there must be footprints or ruts.
Going north from the North Pass, you can find many tracks. However, due to the influence of fallen leaves and branches and the activities of small animals, the farther away you are, the sparser the identifiable tracks.
He doesn't have enough water or food on him. Besides tracking, he also needs to find food and safe shelter. Purifying water is easy. Just get some water and use magic to separate the purified water.
The most troublesome thing is the shelter. He is tracking and moving, and there is only one person. He spends a lot of time every day looking for safe terrain to build a new shelter.
Even if it is changed to resting once every two days, the time will not be saved much. Finding, setting up, and resting will take 40% of the time inside and outside the shelter.
After digging in the woods for half a month under difficult conditions, we finally arrived at a relatively open area, but it turned out... we were on the wrong path.
Not too far in front of him, there was a city wall. Behind the city wall, there was a strange line of green. It looked like the crown of a forest, but there was a very big tree outside the city wall, and the state of its branches and leaves was very similar to the line in the city wall. The trees in the city seemed to have been cut down to the ground.
It seems shorter, and it doesn't seem like a big tree. It's weird anyway.
There are some people working beside the big tree outside the city wall, carrying something.
How about sneaking in?
He hesitated and approached along the edge of the forest. Before he had gone far, eight soldiers came towards him by the big tree outside the city wall.
Seeing the equipment on the soldiers, he understood that it was still in someone else's house.
Egrandine rolled her eyes, did not run, straightened up and raised her hands.
The soldiers saw that he was very skilled, so they kept half of them at a distance, while the other half came closer to 30 meters and started chirping and asking questions.
"Hey, I don't understand what you're saying, so just grab them."
It was definitely the biggest mistake that I didn't find the opportunity to learn language general knowledge at the beginning.
This time, probably seeing that he was cooperative enough, a soldier came up to search him, took away the weapons and several props that seemed to be weapons, and asked him to follow him without tying him up.
I followed the soldiers to the gate of the city wall and listened to their chirping calls. After waiting for a long time, an officer came out with another group of soldiers.
As soon as this officer opened his mouth, it was clear that he had acquired language knowledge, but language knowledge was not a magical skill. This officer probably had not heard him speak, so Eglandine could not quite understand the information he spoke.
"Sorry, I'm using the southern common language of the main world. Although it is one of the three common languages, no one in the exile seems to speak it." He tried to speak more words so that the other party could use language knowledge to collect some languages. elements.
There are also many types of languages in the main world. The three common languages that can be used across countries are Nanfang, Sara and White. Nobles and businessmen can generally understand at least one common language, and they will learn one if they can. Anyone who knows any common language will definitely not be literate, and of course those who know it may not necessarily be literate.
The officer frowned and continued to ask questions.
After several back and forths, the language information finally became clearer, and effective questions and answers began.
"My name is White. I come from the main world. I was captured by your people at the North Pass and imprisoned for half a year. I was released not long ago, but I got lost and was brought to you."
Even when he said it, he felt miserable. He subconsciously raised his head and glanced at the sky. Hey, not even the light of the God of Light could shine in this place.
The officer seemed to be in a bit of a dilemma. He was released from another camp and his faults should have been eliminated. However, it seemed not good to be arrested and imprisoned again.
But don't arrest him. This man wandering north of the volcanic zone is obviously suspicious.
In the end, he was "invited" to live temporarily inside the city wall.
After entering the city wall, I discovered that there was actually a city wall inside!
This city wall seems to be hanging from the tree crown, which is a bit weird, but in a penal colony, it can be weird no matter how weird it is.
After staying there for several days, I finally waited for new news.
"Your identity has been confirmed, but you shouldn't be able to go back. Because you have to go through a 20-kilometer demon-density area to get to the world gate. There are a small number of intermediate demons in it." After he digested the information, The officer continued, "We won't stop you if you want to go, but the map of the northern area is a military secret and we won't give it to you. You have to find your own way to break through the demon-rich area."
Egrandine's mouth opened and closed, unable to accept it.
It's all because of the rogue army of an unknown lord who imprisoned him for half a year. Otherwise, there would have been more hope if he had been released earlier.
He complained a little in his heart. In fact, he also knew that if another lord's army caught him, his head would probably be gone long ago. At least there was no religious trial in this army.
"We have also prepared another way for you, deportation. Don't worry, it's not the northern district. We will put you in a place where people live."
"If I re-enter the country, will I still be imprisoned?"
Unexpectedly, the officer shook his head: "If there is no valid reason, re-entry will be under the control of the Resettlement Administration."
It's okay if he doesn't go to jail, just be a refugee. It's better than wandering around in the woods for half a month before realizing he's lost. When the Church of Light can break through the defense line of the penal colony, he will still have a chance to go back.
You are a genius, remember in one second: Red Oasis:
