It took quite a while again.
Richard felt that the fluctuations in the surrounding space were stabilizing. His feet stepped on the solid ground, and his surrounding vision quickly returned to normal.
First of all, I saw the sunlight shining down from the sky, a little soft, like the afterglow of the sunset.
If this world is similar to the wizarding world and the earth, the time should be four or five o'clock in the afternoon... Richard thought in his mind, and then saw the dead leaves swirling down in the wind, and the air that blew was a bit refreshing and warm. A hint of coolness.
This is...in a forest in autumn
As soon as Richard thought of this, he saw a black shadow rushing towards him, with its bloody mouth open, and a disgusting stench spewed out from inside.
Um
Richard was stunned for a moment, not expecting to encounter such a situation.
But the next moment, I realized that the space jump point is not a space channel. It has a lot of instability. It is impossible to say where it will be teleported to or what things will happen to it.
Without hesitation, facing the attack of the unknown black shadow, he waved his hand and released a powerful wind blade. At the same time, I made many follow-up plans in my mind, such as what to do if the black shadow resisted, what to do if the black shadow got out of the way, what to do if the black shadow was angered...
But a tenth of a second later, Richard realized that he was obviously overthinking.
As soon as the released wind blade touched the black shadow, the black shadow immediately screamed and was cut in half without any resistance. After that, the wind blade, which had more than 99% of its power without having time to release it, whizzed high into the sky and disappeared without a trace.
"Plop!"
Dead black shadows fell from the sky, blood flowed across the sky, and Richard finally had time to observe his surroundings.
As he had guessed, the place he was in was a mountain forest that looked like it was entering autumn. The surrounding trees are not very dense, and there are many yellow leaves floating down. In the afterglow of the setting sun, it is as beautiful as a painting. The continuous mountains and rivers in the distance are somewhat blurred in the afterglow of the setting sun, turning into a golden curve. This is the picture. Painted borders.
He retracted his gaze and looked forward.
Not far from the ground, the dead black shadow had already drained of blood. From the corpse cut in half, it could be barely recognized that it was a creature similar to a wild wolf, but its claws were sharper than ordinary wild wolves. , should be a variant species.
Although the wild wolf was a mutated species, considering the opponent's strength, Richard did not take it seriously. In comparison, what surprised him was that in addition to the mutated wild wolf, there was actually a team of "people" behind him.
There are six "people" in this team, two of them are human swordsmen, one male and one female, both in their twenties, both relatively young.
The other four are somewhat different:
The first is a combination of cat and human, which can be called cat people. Wearing a piece of clothing inlaid with iron pieces, the exposed parts are covered with fine orange fuzz. Standing on the ground, he is nearly 1.6 meters tall, with a slightly stooped body and a gray beard. It can be judged that he is very old.
The second one is a combination of tiger and human, which can be called tiger man. Compared to the cat people, he is much younger and is nearly 1.8 meters tall. Even standing next to the human male swordsman, he is not short. Coupled with the bulging muscles and the four-fingered broad sword in his hand, it is quite intimidating.
The third is a combination of mouse and human, which can be called rat man. The whole body is navy blue, holding a thin sword, and its eyes are constantly moving.
The last one looked almost the same as a human teenage boy. There was nothing special about his limbs or face, but a swinging fox tail behind his butt revealed his true identity. He was obviously a little fox boy.
The two humans and four orcs were all looking at Richard warily at this time, holding weapons in their hands as if they were ready to take action at any time.
Richard squinted his eyes, glanced at the group of "people", and then at the wild wolf that he cut in half. In just one second, he deduced the truth of the matter.
It is possible that, for some reason, this group of "people" fought with the wild wolf and prepared to kill the wild wolf. As a result, as soon as the wild wolf jumped into the air, he arrived in this world, so the wild wolf that attacked this group of "people" pounced on him.
He reacted in time and killed the wild wolf with one move, which was regarded as self-defense, but in the eyes of a team of six "people", there may be many interpretations.
Maybe you think he is "stealing monsters", maybe you think he has ulterior motives, maybe...
No matter which one it is, it will inevitably cause hostility, which is how it manifests now.
But looking on the bright side, the other party is only hostile, not completely hostile, and there is still the possibility of communicating and obtaining information.
So…
Richard thought for a moment, then faced a group of "people" and said hello in the common language of ancient wizard civilization: "How are you?"
When the other party heard the greeting, they looked at each other and looked at the old cat man, as if the cat man was the leader and decided what to do.
So Richard also looked at the cat man.
The cat man was holding a long sword two fingers wide. He took a few steps towards Richard while keeping vigilance. He opened his mouth and made a sound: "#%#%#%..."
After two seconds, Richard judged that the Catman spoke an ancient wizard civilization language, not a common language. It was more unpopular than the "Baluku" language Lu Xi spoke before. It was considered a minor language, which meant asking him Who is he and where does he come from.
The other party's tone was not very polite, but at least it gave a start to the communication.
After listening to the other party's words, Richard pondered for a while and replied: "I come from the far east."
"Dongfang?" The catman was stunned, frowned, and turned to discuss with his companions behind him.
"East? Is it the other side of the Elukumu Forest?" the rat man guessed.
"Maybe further east." The human male swordsman deduced, "I have seen the people on the other side of the Elukumu Forest. They are nothing special, at least they don't have the kind of swordsmanship he had just now. Let's not talk about his sudden appearance in the scene. , how to do it, but just by waving a hand to show the power of swordsmanship, being able to kill the elite ghost wolf that has been chasing us for so long with one blow, and cut it in half, is at least the strength of a master, and only people from the east are possible. "
"But why don't we see his sword?" asked the Skaven.
"I heard that there is a very powerful swordsmanship in the East. You can control the energy to attack without using a sword. Maybe the other party has this method." The male swordsman said again.
"But why does he want to help us?" the little fox boy interrupted, asking doubtfully.
"Who knows, it's best to be careful. After all, there aren't many good people these days." The young tiger man said warily.
"Okay, okay, we should be careful." The old catman finally made the decision, "But having said that, if we can avoid being enemies with each other, we can't be enemies with each other. After all, we don't have the extra energy to deal with them now. A powerful enemy, understand?”
"Yes, elder." The two human swordsmen, the rat man, and the little fox boy said quickly.
The young tiger man was a little reluctant, but finally nodded, and the title was slightly different from the other "people": "Okay, teacher."
"Um."
At the end of the discussion, the orange cat man turned his head and looked at Richard again, put away his long sword, his expression was slightly kinder, he coughed a few times and said: "Ahem, it turns out you are a friend from the East, hello, welcome We came to the area west of Erukumu Forest. Our group left Kamzhai in the south and headed to Dunma Valley in the north. I wonder where you are going?"
"I'm here to travel. I haven't decided where to go yet, but I want to see some special and dangerous areas to increase my knowledge. If you know about it, please tell me, I will be very grateful. .”
"Traveling? Special and dangerous places?" The catman was obviously a little surprised when he heard this. He stroked his gray beard several times and sighed, "There is no place in this world that is not dangerous. You actually want to see more dangerous places... No! Needless to say, your ideas in the East are different from those here. However, there are indeed several very dangerous areas on our way to the Dunma Valley. If you don't mind, you can come with us and I will point them out to you on the way. "
Richard thought about it and nodded after a second: "That's good work."
"You're welcome."
