Perception was a desperate darkness, and Wei Ke ran wildly in this darkness at a loss.
"Where is this? Why am I here?"
Wei Ke is like a drowning man, desperately trying to catch everything that can escape this darkness.
Suddenly, under the feet of Wei Ke who was running, his whole person fell towards the faintly visible dark red abyss.
"what!!"
Weike, who was sweating profusely, woke up suddenly, gasping heavily in his mouth.
"It turned out to be a nightmare..."
Wiping a cold sweat on his forehead, Wei Ke thought with lingering fear: "But this dream is too real! Maybe it's the reason for the lack of energy that has been going on all night for the past few days..."
"Professional player? It sounds good! But who knows how hard this job is?" Wei Ke laughed self-deprecatingly: "I'm not too young at my age, although I saved a lot of money, but The body can't take it anymore, it's time to quit this business."
Weike secretly made up his mind and raised his hand, preparing to turn on the ultra-brain specially configured for games and start a new day's work. But his hand just raised it, but it froze again.
The strange scene in front of Wei Ke hit him like a bolt from the blue sky, making him dumbfounded.
The familiar room, the big desk, and the silver-white super brain all disappeared! What appeared in Wei Ke's vision was a dilapidated house, and he was sitting on a simple wooden bed made of boards and stones.
"Where is this? Am I still in a dream?"
Wei Ke pinched his thigh subconsciously, but the severe pain reminded him that this is not a dream...
After scanning the surrounding environment several times, Wei Ke finally came back to his senses.
A turned, flustered Weike fell directly from the bed onto the cold ground.
Regardless of the pain from his body, Wei Ke walked quickly to the door of the room, pushed it away and walked out.
It was early in the morning, and the sky was bright.
With the light, Wei Ke looked around quickly. This is a gloomy alley, on both sides of the alley are low and old houses, and the muddy road is empty without a single person.
Sweeping through a puddle on the ground unconsciously, Wei Ke noticed that his appearance had also changed a lot. Although it is still that ordinary face, his body has shrunk a lot, and his pupils have turned into a mysterious and elegant deep purple.
Wei Ke, with a pale face, returned to the house in despair, without even closing the door.
At this time, even if Wei Ke was dull, he realized that something incredible must have happened to him.
"Through!"
These two words suddenly flashed in Wei Ke's mind, and only this statement could explain everything.
"Little Vic, why did you get up so early today? Is your illness cured?"
Just as Wei Ke was in a state of confusion, a cheerful and thick voice came in from the door of the room.
"Ah I… "
Wei Ke was stunned for a moment, and just as he quickly pondered the words in his heart, a tall figure appeared at the door of the room.
"Okay, okay, don't say anything! It's just a sickness, what's the embarrassment?"
The man has short brown hair and a big face. He is obviously of Nordic race. Wearing a short sackcloth, he said to Wei Ke familiarly, "Well, although his face is a bit pale, his complexion is still good! Little guy, since your illness is cured, go to the port with Uncle Leo. Zone, and see if there is a suitable part-time job! As a man, it’s okay if you don’t have money, you’ll be hungry..."
Under the so-called Uncle Leo's rants, Wei Ke walked out of the room again after following him in a confused manner.
Being in an unfamiliar environment, Wei Ke was cautious not to say a word, and his appearance was regarded by Uncle Leo as a sign of recovery from a serious illness, and it was not surprising.
Along the way, Uncle Leo kept nagging and talking, giving Wei Ke a preliminary understanding of his environment.
This is a port city called Carter, which contains six areas: the City Lord’s Mansion, the Noble District, the Old City, the Port District, the Commercial District, and the Temple District. And Wei Ke's residence is in the old city next to the port area, a slum area with extremely poor environment. As for the port area where Wei Ke and Leo went, it was a place where gangs were rampant and chaotic.
"Carter City?"
Wei Ke has a thoughtful expression on his face. He seems to have heard this name somewhere.
But the question is, how could he feel familiar with a name he just learned after he has just crossed into this unfamiliar world? Could it be the memory of the original owner of this body
Slightly shook his head, Wei Ke did not continue to explore this question, because he had already followed Uncle Leo to the port area.
"Little Vic, from here on, you must follow me!"
Uncle Leo changed his relaxed expression and said solemnly: "This ghost place is no better than the old town. You must pay attention to your words and deeds, and don't provoke anyone! Otherwise, the consequences are not something you and I can bear..."
Wei Ke nodded, his pale face was covered with the words "I listen to you".
Seeing Wei Ke's obedient appearance, Lei Ao breathed a sigh of relief, and then led him straight to a dock where a large ship was docked.
"You two! Hey, just say you guys, stop for me!"
When Wei Ke walked near the dock, a thin man with a sharp waist reached out and stopped them.
"Who are you? What are you doing here?"
The thin man drank to Leo arrogantly, but Wei Ke didn't even look at him.
"This eldest brother, we are residents of the old city. We are here to see if there are suitable day laborers. Please also this boss to accommodate..."
Uncle Lei Ao nodded and explained, while taking out a dozen copper coins and gently placing them in the hands of the thin man.
"Oh, I see!"
The skinny man looked up and down the two of them, then put the copper coin into his waist, and said domineeringly: "Fortunately, you are lucky! Lord Hill's merchant ship has just docked on the shore, and it happens that people need to carry the goods..."
After a slight pause, the thin man warned, "Work hard! Don't make trouble for me!"
"This big brother, don't worry about a hundred! We are all honest people and understand the rules..."
Before Leo finished speaking, the thin man waved his hand impatiently, "Come over! I have no time to listen to you nagging here..."
"Okay, let's go now! Thank you, boss..."
As he said, Leo-Raweko's arm quickly passed in front of the thin man.
Soon, Wei Ke and the two came to the dock. At this time, a lot of people carrying the same goods had gathered beside the large merchant ship, all dressed in a single dress of coarse linen.
"Little Vic, have you seen it! If it's a while at night, we can't keep up with this job." Uncle Leo rubbed his hands in excitement. Ten boxes, that will make a lot of money..."
"Your illness is just right, take some strength, don't make a mistake!"
Uncle Leo repeatedly urged: "Don't fall down the container, don't bump into others, don't talk too much..."
Although Uncle Leo was a bit chatty, his caring heart was real, which made Wei Ke, who was unfamiliar with him, feel warm.
"I see, Uncle Leo! I listen to you, thank you for taking care of me..."
Leo grinned and said boldly: "Thank you! But I grew up watching you. Who else can I take care of without taking care of you? Go, let's hurry up and work!"
Following the crowd, Wei Ke and Leo boarded the merchant ship along the ladder and walked into the cabin full of cargo.
Apart from anything else, the two picked up the cargo box and walked towards the dock.
What surprised Wei Ke is that his seemingly weak body is quite powerful! Carrying a heavy cargo box on his shoulders is not as laborious as expected.
Time is passing fast.
After repeatedly transporting seventeen or eight shipments, Uncle Leo's forehead was already slightly sweaty, but Wei Ke was still very relaxed. After noticing the situation, he consciously adjusted his expression, pretending to be breathless like everyone else.
"How about? Little Vic, can you hold on to your body?" Uncle Leo had a worried expression, "I didn't expect the weight of the goods this time would be so large..."
"I'm fine!" Wei Ke replied, panting heavily, "I just need to move the container a few times less."
"It's okay, it's okay!"
Lei Ao pondered for a moment, and said flatly: "Let's move two more times! Let's make 40 copper coins and go home. I always feel that something is wrong here..."
Of course, Wei Ke would not object to Leo's decision, because he had vaguely guessed what the cargo he was carrying through his experience in the game.
"Unexpectedly, the experience of playing games in the previous life can still be used in this life..."
Wei Ke muttered, still sighing about what happened to him.
At this moment, a light suddenly flashed in Wei Ke's mind, and it seemed that some familiar things were overlapped by him.
"Carter City... Port... Lord Hill... Merchant Ship... Games?"
The memories of the previous life flashed in Wei Ke's mind quickly, and several unrelated names were connected by him.
"This... Could it be said that... I crossed into the world of games?"
Wei Ke finally connected the information in his memory. He can confirm that the world he lives in is exactly the background set in the most popular game "Scepter of Truth" in the last life.
Wei Ke, who was carrying the cargo box, couldn't help but stop, and a gleam of light flashed under his eyes: "It turns out that this is the continent of Walsd..."
