"Have you left..."
Zhang Ming raised the sail and wanted the sailboat to follow the awning boat.
However, the wind was too light tonight, and the sailboat was not sailing very fast. Zhang Ming could only put down the small raft and row the oars, trying to catch up.
It's just that when the distance between the two parties reaches a certain limit, the awning boat suddenly "disappears" in the perception!
It's not because the distance is too far, but because it suddenly...disappears.
"Sure enough, there is a world hidden here..." Zhang Ming's heart moved slightly. After his small raft reached the same position as the awning boat, it naturally could not disappear with it.
He was not too frustrated. He turned back to the bedroom, took out the pot of World Tree, and tried to sense the direction of the world.
It's just a pity that the leaves of the world can only guide the worlds that have a good impression of him, the earth and the Xuanwu world. As for the one in front of him, even if he is close at hand, he can't sense it.
"I hate that I am not the world's hunter!" Zhang Ming looked up to the sky and sighed, quite helplessly.
"If there is an intelligent civilization behind this awning ship, there is a high probability that it will not give up on me so easily. After all, I am alone. If humans on earth encounter this situation, they will definitely find ways to get me back for observation."
"Either...the other party is just a program."
"Maybe they will show up again tomorrow night."
Thinking of this, Zhang Ming carefully prepared various rare items that might come in handy in his workshop.
…
…
Life on this day was like any other.
Eat what you need to eat and drink what you need to drink.
However, the friends obviously have some thoughts.
Even the big pelican looks into the distance from time to time, flaps its wings, and patrols in the sky, but it can never find the hidden world and can only howl sadly.
"Gah!"
"Pelican, actually when you met us, you had a better attitude. If you beg a few times, we will bring you into the Xuanwu world." Zhang Ming laughed and teased it, "But now the distance is so far, but it's not It’s possible.”
The pelican roared loudly, and the hair all over its body stood on end.
You've already missed an opportunity, and you're talking nonsense!
Xiaobai quietly climbed on the pelican's head to comfort it.
Sister Pelican, don’t be so arrogant. There will be no good results if you go against the captain.
If you had been more docile and begged from the beginning, you might have survived in Xuanwu Continent, and there would be no need to live such a wandering life now.
Pelican Sister's eyes sharpened and she roared.
My sister has done nothing in her life and is no weaker than others. How can she go begging!
But secretly, the pelican buries its head among the feathers and plucks out its feathers with its beak.
Pain, Pelican!
Bird down like snowflakes withered on the deck piece by piece. The huge pain made the pelican's face twist into a ball. The regret deep in his heart almost swallowed up the stupid bird. How could you miss such a paradise in Xuanwu Continent? ?
Why did these guys run away from this paradise? are you crazy?
…
Zhang Ming couldn't possibly know the psychological changes of these animals, and even if he knew, he wouldn't bother to care about them.
He was immersed in the awning boat yesterday.
The most critical thing today is combat power!
As long as his combat power is high enough, even if he encounters danger, he can safely resolve it.
Now it's just a matter of time and it's impossible to significantly improve the attributes. The best way is to create more rare objects.
Zhang Ming has no shortage of offensive ability for the time being, but he only lacks defense. In other words... no one lacks defense.
In addition to the completed soul-fixing pistol, what is being made at hand is a supernatural cloak.
The magical fur from the donkey-headed monster "Soulbreaker".
This thing has the mysterious property of optical distortion, and its application is quite complicated. If it is made well, it can even change its appearance, just like the legendary "painted skin".
According to legend, in ancient times, there was a ferocious-looking evil spirit who could dress up as a beautiful beauty by wearing human skin painted with colored pens. He could use various deceptive methods to achieve the purpose of tearing open people's stomachs and tearing out their hearts. Later, the evil ghost was discovered by a Taoist priest. Under the blows of the wooden sword, he was forced to finally take off his "painted skin" and reveal his true colors, and was eliminated with a sword.
The donkey-headed monster's fur theoretically has a similar function.
However, Zhang Ming did not have perfect production skills, and he only had one piece of fur in his hand, so he could not afford to squander it.
After two full years of research, he finally made up his mind when the people on earth finally figured out part of the properties of the donkey-headed monster's fur.
"Then let's keep it simple, an invisibility cloak. Don't have so many fancy functions, just make it easier for me to run away."
"For long-range attacks, use the soul-fixing pistol. For close combat, use spears and purple lightning. For defense, rely on the invisibility cloak and the source of the world. The combat power should be good."
Until night.
The fifteen-year-old moon is sixteen round, under the moonlight that is so blurry that it is difficult to see clearly.
Sure enough, the mysterious awning boat appeared again.
It was also a foggy day, and the sea was silent. The two dead old turtles and the open boat canopy seemed to be waiting for him to get on the boat.
Zhang Ming shouted a few words again to express that he had no ill intentions.
When the time was up, the old turtle pulled the awning boat and left again.
On the night of the third day, the ship appeared again and he tried to get on it.
Sure enough, as soon as Zhang Ming walked up, the awning boat started to move, carrying him to a distant place.
But soon, he jumped out of the awning boat and returned to his sailboat.
The old turtles ignored it and pulled the boat away, as if nothing happened.
Time passed day by day, and half a month later, Zhang Ming finally sewed his invisibility cloak.
Two more "soul-fixing guns" were made, one of which was given to Xiaobai for use - this was not the kind of toy that could only be used to kill fish, but one that could actually kill people.
After Zhang Ming made up his mind, he said to Xiaobai: "As long as our sailboat stays at this position, the awning boat will come over every day and want to take me over."
"There are only two options before us. The first is to leave this sea area directly and give up the investigation."
"Secondly, being carried by it into that hidden world, there are only two options. There is no point in delaying it any longer."
"I plan to go with your ancestors to have a look. You and Brother Hao stay on the boat and keep an eye on our property."
Xiaobai's face wrinkled into a ball, you ran away, what should we do? It's hard to guard this ship.
Zhang Ming added: "This bone gun can directly paralyze an enemy. Remember to use it when you are in danger."
"What's more, there is a pelican on the boat. Although its relationship with me is not very good, its relationship with you is not bad, and it can also be the main force in the fight."
"When we really encounter an unsolvable problem, we hug Brother Hao and hide in the alien space. By the way, put that big shell into the alien space as well. It is all our property and must not be lost."
Seeing what Lao Zhang said so carefully, Xiao Bai could only agree with a sad face.
"Don't play with the computer!" Lao Zhang finally told him.
Xiaobai's body trembled suddenly and he asked me to watch the boat and not play on the computer!
Night fell, and not long after, Zhang Ming heard the sound of paddling, and the awning boat arrived on time.
"Food, water, flying knives, some practical rare items, and some gold jewelry." After sorting out the props in his backpack, putting on his invisibility cloak, Zhang Ming jumped onto the awning boat with excitement.
"Ouch!" As if he noticed something, Brother Hao wandered anxiously on the deck.
Even the pelican was staring with its eyes, maybe it was thinking about whether it could hold on to the ship after Lao Zhang died... Finally, it screamed "qua", seeming to bid farewell to Lao Zhang.
Although Lao Zhang plucked its hair and ate its eggs, he allowed it to live on the boat...
"Let's go." Zhang Ming waved his hand, and the awning boat gradually moved away.
…
The fog is getting thicker and thicker, and the acquired ability of "extraordinary vision" has almost lost its effect in the heavy fog with visibility of less than one meter.
Even the full moon in the sky was obscured by thick fog, and there was no light at all.
In the darkness where he couldn't see his fingers, Zhang Ming inspired a bolt of lightning, lit the ever-burning lantern in his hand, and sat cautiously in the awning boat.
The flickering flames exuded a dim yellow luster in the palm of his hand, and Zhang Ming let out a sigh of relief.
He also switched his acquired ability from "extraordinary vision" to "concealing self", and restrained his aura, making himself look not too powerful, but still somewhat capable, just a little stronger than the Pelican sister. kind.
Yes, Sister Pelican has grown a bit in the past two years, but she is still just a unit of measurement!
As for the invisibility cloak, there is no rush to activate it. How can there be any reason to use the trump card from the beginning?
"The unknown is still scary."
"I shouldn't be weak, right, Shimama?"
Shimama snorted coldly, neither agreeing nor objecting.
About ten minutes later, the awning boat touched a vague border line, like a layer of light ripples in the water. In just a moment, the thick white mist dissipated.
Instead, there was a scarlet blood moon hanging high in the sky!
It was so huge that it covered less than half the sky.
It was also so unusual. The moment Zhang Ming saw this blood moon, the tension and uneasiness in his heart reached its peak, causing a dense feeling of panic on both the soul and physical levels!
The ever-burning lamp in his hand is burning faster.
The nameless mist filled the starry sky, producing rustling murmurs.
The scarlet moonlight illuminates this world as infinite, dark and silent as an abyss, distorting the laws here.
You can even vaguely see it moving from the corner of your eye!
It's moving!
Zhang Ming's face turned pale in an instant, and tension and uneasiness filled his heart - this was one of the strongest supernatural phenomena he had ever encountered in his life.
"Demon." Shimama suddenly said something, a little serious.
"Is the Red Moon more powerful or the Black Tortoise?" Lao Zhang joked to ease his mood. He was even a little lucky that he was hiding in the canopy of the boat and did not directly touch the scarlet moonlight.
Shimama was a little annoyed and repeated the second half of the sentence: "Xuanwu is amazing."
"real or fake?"
Shimama spent a long time trying to figure out why Xuanwu was so powerful.
(Because Xuanwu has reason, but the devil in the sky has no reason.)
"Xuanwu's little wisdom, okay... Or should we jump off the ship and run away now? Maybe it's still too late." Zhang Ming scratched his head and put on his invisibility cloak.
With his current power level, there is no chance of survival against a powerful being like Xuanwu.
"I, Emperor Zhang Ming, prepare to escape first!" Shimama sneered, rolled out, and was exposed to the moonlight for a while, but nothing seemed to happen.
"Eh...isn't the moon activated? Or is it restricted?" Zhang Ming couldn't bask in the moonlight, so he just took a piece of green vegetables from his backpack and threw it out to bask in the sun for a while.
Nothing really changes.
There was a faint sound of wind outside. Zhang Ming held the ever-burning lantern in his hand and carefully observed the outside world. What he saw was the boundless sea. There seemed to be nothing, no life, no continent, not even an island.
"How are the demons divided?"
Shimama scrolled for a while, unable to explain why.
Because there are too many species in the Sea of Demon Gods that are inherently powerful.
They don't need to practice step by step like humans and Flame Horn people.
What's more, looking at the sea of demon gods, there are not many demon gods.
Otherwise, ordinary species would have perished long ago, and where would there be any chance of development?
Therefore, relying on the cognitive ability of the Flaming Horn people, it is impossible to divide the so-called "demons" into power levels. This term just describes a certain type of existence that is extremely powerful and almost impossible to contend with.
"That's it." Zhang Ming nodded.
But one thing that can be confirmed is that the higher the power level of an innate species, the lower its intelligence is, and it is difficult to form intelligence like humans.
This seems to be a law, and it is rare to see violations... Of course, it is just rare, not non-existent.
This kind of "rare" is rare at the level of the Sea of Demon Gods. At least, Xuanwu has never encountered a powerful species with innate wisdom in all his years.
In his limited life span, Lao Zhang should not be able to meet him.
"In other words, only with the power of self-cultivation, there is no risk of losing one's sanity. Is the realm of gods the kind of route that has sanity?"
Zhang Ming thought of another question and couldn't help but ask, "So, has Xuanwu ever hunted powerful species of the same level?"
Shimama rolled around in boredom and didn't answer.
Zhang Ming knew at a glance that this guy might have never hunted a demon before.
The old turtle would shrink down and run away when something happens. How could he be as brave and good at fighting as Lao Zhang?
As for the other powerful demon gods, even if they are not rational, they do not necessarily have the animal instinct to seek benefits and avoid harm. If they don't have enough benefits, why would they want to fight with a strong person of the same strength?
"So what's going on with this ship? If it is indeed artificially built, is this civilization fighting against a demon?" Zhang Ming looked at the blood moon in the sky, took a deep breath, and felt a bigger feeling in his heart. doubts.
"Where...is this ship taking me?"
