Apart from the dim lights, there is endless darkness.
The part of the fog close to the carriage was still gray and pale, while the part far away from the carriage had already fallen into darkness.
[Last Words] appeared in Lu Tan's hand, making his hearing stronger and trying to capture the surrounding sounds.
However, Lu Tiao didn't hear anything.
"We can only go forward."
Drizzt's face looked a little ugly.
If he encounters a monster, he can kill it with a pistol.
If he encounters something he can't defeat, he can lie down and wait for death.
What I fear the most is this situation of being stuck in a foreign land, unable to survive, and struggling to survive.
Fortunately, as a battle-experienced Chosen One, he knows how to deal with the situation casually.
After the carriage adjusted its direction slightly, it continued forward, away from the stone statue.
Lu Tiao saw that the hazy shadow of the stone statue was swallowed up by the heavy fog and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Although there are no lights, at least there are gravel paths.
Along the gravel road, the carriage moved forward slowly.
Drizzt remained alert, scanning the fog.
The shape of the mist is uncertain, and sometimes it presents some familiar scenes.
Staring for too long may cause hallucinations.
Drizzt saw that the fog seemed to form some kind of animal, or like a building, thick and light, layered on top of each other.
Just when the fog was approaching the carriage, or rather the carriage was approaching the dense fog, Drizzt discovered that there was a figure in the fog!
"!"
He held the reins with one hand and raised the muzzle of the gun with the other.
"Did you see that?"
Drizzt asked Lu Tan behind him.
"I saw it."
Lu Tan didn't show any nervousness and added another sentence.
"Perhaps we could ask him for directions?"
"???"
Several question marks appeared on Drizzt's head.
Is there really something wrong?
He squeezed the rope in his hand and ordered the horse to pull the cart closer to the figure standing in the fog, preparing to speed away immediately if he encountered any problems.
I don't know whether I should be lucky or unfortunate, but that's not a stone statue.
is a person.
The man had sparse hair, deep wrinkles on his face, and only one pair of eyes, which were very prominent, even to the point of being abrupt.
His lips were thin and his figure was stooped. He stood motionless on the roadside.
He was wearing simple clothes and only a pair of gray cloth shoes, which stood out in the dark fog.
Behind that person, in the thick fog, there seemed to be some strange-shaped building.
The carriage stopped beside him.
"...How to get to Dry Water Town?"
Drizzt mustered up the courage to ask.
The man didn't react at first, as if he couldn't hear Drizzt's words. Then, about three or four seconds later, his eyes moved.
It was not like moving his eyes to observe the carriage, but like waking up from a deep sleep, with a twitch of his eyeballs and regaining his spirituality.
But he still didn't answer.
Lu Tan patted Drizzt on the shoulder and came to the front.
The person in front of me is very strange.
Because Lu Jian was holding [Last Words] in his left hand, it was impossible to hear his heartbeat.
If Lu Tan lost his vision and relied only on his hearing, he would think there was nothing in front of him.
Instead of questioning the person directly, he stretched out his crowbar and tried to poke the person.
"Hello..."
Drizzt was surprised and had no time to stop him, but when the end of Lu Tiao's crowbar almost touched the man, the man made a sound.
It was a strange sound that came from deep in the throat with difficulty, like a sound coming from some other creature forcibly learning from humans.
"there."
The man raised his short hand and pointed forward.
His movements were sluggish and jerky, as if his joints had been solidified, giving him a strange feeling.
"Thanks."
Lu Tan sat back.
"..."
Drizzt watched the interaction between the two, and for a moment he didn't know who was the weirder one.
"Let's go."
Lu Tan urged.
Drizzt drove his horse in confusion, gradually moving away from the strange man.
It wasn't until the other party was swallowed up by the mist and could no longer be found that Drizzt remembered one thing.
The person just now looked a bit like a fish.
"He has no heartbeat."
Lu Trip's voice came faintly from behind, sending shivers down Drizzt's spine subconsciously.
"That man looks a bit like the monster in the stone statue, but more human."
Drizzt said.
"There should be no resurrection spells in the Kingdom of Darkness. Most of the descriptions in the props have mentioned that only some people in the wasteland can coexist with the dead."
"Can people in the wasteland come back to life?"
Lu Tan became interested.
"It's not the same. Have you ever been to the wasteland?"
Drizzt put some tobacco into his pipe again. At this moment, only the choking smell of smoke could offset the fear spreading in the mist.
"No."
Lu Kan answered truthfully.
"The people in the wasteland do not so much believe in gods as they try to become gods themselves. Their extraordinary beings are saints. These saints all have powerful names, just like the country of the dead in the wasteland. Its ruler's name seems to be...
...Hades."
Drizzt recalled it.
"Pluto..."
Of course Lu Jian knew that this name was Pluto in Greek mythology, and he was also the villain in many works.
"Huh? You've never been to the wasteland, and you actually know that this name represents Hades?"
Drizzt was a little surprised, but then nodded to himself.
"Maybe these are mentioned in the descriptions of some items."
"?"
Lu Tiao noticed some problems.
"Old Cui, what number are you among the Chosen Ones?"
"No. 178, what's wrong?"
Drizzt looked forward and answered casually.
"Do you know the Old Video Network?"
Lu Tan then asked.
"What is Japan Video Network...?"
Drizzt looked slightly confused.
"What about the ruined capital?"
"Abandoned Capital?"
The confusion in Drizzt's words deepened.
"I live in the abandoned capital."
Lu Tan's heart sank.
Sure enough, Lu Tiao felt strange from the beginning.
The language Drizzt used was not from Lu Jian's world. He didn't know Lu Jian, and he didn't know anything about Lu Jian's world. Greek myths like Hades were also difficult for Drizzt to know.
Knowledge.
Therefore, he is not from the world where Lu Jian lives.
This did not surprise Lu Jian, because the Quiet Land can teleport Lu Jian to foreign lands, so there is no problem in teleporting people from other worlds.
The only thing that surprised him was that Drizzt came from the Wasted City.
In other words, people in foreign lands will also become the chosen ones of the Quiet Land and enter other worlds to complete tasks.
"So that's it..."
Lu Tan suddenly made contact.
Therefore, the first two novice guidance tasks he completed did not create strange things in that world because of the system.
It's because Lu Jian's world is originally a foreign land in a quiet place.
While he was thinking, the carriage stopped again.
Lu Tiao stuck his head out.
He saw a stone statue standing in front of the horse.
The stone statue was praying in a certain direction in a twisted posture.
The lower body of the stone statue is that of a slightly damaged normal human being.
