The ball was probably stunned for a moment when it heard Gao Wen's words. It's impossible to judge, after all, it's just a smooth metal ball, without facial features, expressions or even body movements. It wasn't listening, but it did answer after two seconds of silence: "Aren't you talking nonsense, I was transported by you from another place, it must not be this earth!"
"You should know that's not what I mean," Gao Wen was completely unmoved, "You should come from a farther place, and even the simple distance may not be good enough to describe a metal sphere that can think and talk, and it can also release strange things. The energy fluctuations, the control of magic and metal, I have never heard of such a strange race in this world."
"That's because you don't know much," Sphere said sarcastically, "I've heard about you from the human who called himself Druid in the past two days. How much can you see in a lifetime? With your human eyes and the way of word-of-mouth information transmission, there are too few things you can see in your lifetime... "
When Gao Wen heard this, his heart became more stable.
This ball is right. The vast majority of people in the world in this era are indeed "blindfolded". The lack of information transmission methods and the chaotic state of separation make it difficult for people to access and collect new information. Only A small number of high-ranking nobles, great magicians, and great knights will pay attention to the outside world, while others, including field nobles like Viscount Andrew in Tanzania Town, are self-styled and autistic, while a man with his face facing the loess and his back facing the sky The amount of new things a farmer can come into contact with in his whole life is only as much as a few newspapers. Therefore, if Gao Wen is also such a "blindfolded" person, then he can only judge a ball based on "he has not seen it before". It would indeed look ridiculous if it was an alien.
But the real Gawain was not only not blindfolded, he even watched the world evolve with his eyes open for countless years. He has been staring at the world since the monkeys in this continent could not walk upright, even though he couldn’t see it. The situation on other continents, but no matter how isolated and strange the life forms on other continents are from this side, it will not evolve an alloy ball in a pile of carbon-based organisms!
Unless there is really a hack-like race out of Gawain's sight that quickly clicked on the Zenith Star technology and built an alloy shell anti-gravity levitation strong artificial intelligence thing, and this thing has been wandering for a thousand years The former Loren Continent was captured by those Gondor magisters... Instead of believing such a thing, Gawain would rather believe that Amber would return the pocket watch of the housekeeper Viscount Andrew next door.
So he smiles, walks up to the ball, and puts his hand on the opponent's surface.
The sphere immediately screamed: "Hey, what are you doing!? You don't get angry! Otherwise, I..."
The sphere got stuck halfway through, because Gawain sent a sentence directly into its mind through magic resonance (does a sphere really have these things?): "Don't you think, you are the same as the world in this world?" Are the painting styles of all creatures too different?"
The sphere was silent for a few more seconds, and then replied in a way of magical resonance: "...you can talk as you say, why do you have to be so mysterious."
"Because I know that there are some things you may not want others to know," Gawain smiled, "so you can just tell me."
"Then I don't want you to know either!"
Gao Wen was unmoved: "Where did you come from? How did you end up in this world? How long have you been here?"
Qiuqiu deliberately pretended to be confused: "I don't even understand what you mean, isn't your associative ability too strong?"
"Hey, I understand your efforts, but I have to say that you can't hide your fresh and refined appearance, and you have somewhat underestimated the amount of knowledge I have. Did that druid named Pittman follow you?" You mentioned that although most people in the territory were born after the decline of civilization, the lord here, that is, me, was actually resurrected from the peak of civilization seven hundred years ago, and I am also a naturalist. "
The sphere was completely silent this time, obviously, the druid with a mouth as clueless as amber had mentioned this to it.
With the open mind of the traveler and the information he has so far, Gawain can almost assert that this sphere is a foreign visitor, but he can't be sure whether the other party has traveled through the world like himself, or just came from another planet, but anyway, This unlucky guy is definitely the most unlucky kind among the traversers: its painting style is different from others...
This tm is embarrassing, at least 200 times more embarrassing than those black-haired and black-eyed routines that travel through the past and are regarded as the sons of demons: Why do you pretend to be an alien creature and tell people that you are from a distant oriental mysterious country?
For his own safety, and because he still doesn't know the details of the sphere, Gao Wen can't directly tell the other party the secret that he is also a time traveler, but he has another identity to fool him: a naturalist from a civilized and developed society seven hundred years ago , this identity should be much easier to deal with this ball than those "closed and ignorant natives".
"Think about it, your secret may not be as important as you think." Gawain slowed down his tone, "I'm not a fanatical religious person, nor are the magisters who studied you a thousand years ago, so I don't care Are you a visitor from a foreign land? I will neither purify you by calling the name of some god, nor use a lot of metalworking tools to make holes in your body. I just hope to have a good talk with you. On the one hand, To satisfy my personal curiosity, on the one hand, it is also to find a way to help you.
"You know, you have almost nowhere to go. There is a wasteland on the other side of the mountain. The wasteland is full of the monsters you saw two days ago, and going north is a feudal civilization after the decline of civilization. In the Kingdom, 99% of the people there are more stubborn, extreme, superstitious and unreasonable than me. You can only be here, so why not become friends with us
"Of course, if you still have doubts, I can let you go. You can go to the human country or the south of the mountain to have a look, but I can hardly guarantee that you can come back alive, and..."
"I can't remember either." In the resonance of the magic power, the sphere suddenly made a metallic trembling sound, interrupting Gawain's words.
Gao Wen blinked his eyes and realized that the other party was cooperating with him. He quickly controlled his excitement and asked curiously, "Can't remember?"
"I can't remember where I came from, and I can't remember how I came here," the ball said sullenly, "You guessed it right, I do come from a 'very far' place, and you are so far away that you can't see it." Imagine. A thousand years ago, you had the concepts of planets and universes, so you should have them too. Let me tell you straight, the guys who studied me back then also discussed in private, wondering if I came from another planet but I'd say it's farther than that, and that's a distance beyond the notion of 'cosmic space'."
Gao Wen's expression became serious: "In fact, some astronomical knowledge has not been lost. It's just that after completely losing the observation and calculation technology in this area, the relevant knowledge has degenerated and distorted into legends. But you don't mean that you can't remember clearly. What does your hometown look like and how did you come here? How can you be sure that you didn’t come across the universe?”
The voice of the sphere was a little helpless: "I have amnesia, but I have not lost my common sense! The laws of physics in the two places are different. How can it be the same universe?"
Gao Wen couldn't restrain the excitement and excitement in his heart. A companion (although it is only a ball), a companion (although it is only a ball) that has traveled through the same time as himself, and a companion who can discuss concepts such as planets, the universe, and space-time travel with him. How exciting is this for him who has been alone in this world for tens of thousands of years
Of course, now he has new friends and relatives (although the blood relationship is a bit far away), Amber, Rebecca, Hetty, Byron, etc. are all trustworthy people, but can these people discuss the universe and time and space with him
Hmm... It should be okay if Rebecca's brain hole expands a bit...
Gao Wen tried to suppress the chaotic thoughts that popped up in his mind for a moment, and finally sorted out a new question: "Are you so sure that you have crossed the universe? Have you ever thought that the laws of physics in the universe may be 'uneven'? 'Yes, maybe the rules of each galaxy are different?"
"Oh, why didn't I think about it, but it's impossible," Ball said dejectedly, "My race has explored the entire universe we live in, and even started to think about punching holes in the world barrier. The laws of physics are not average, we have already written it in elementary school textbooks... So from the first day I came here, I ruled out the possibility of being on another planet."
Gao Wen was dumbfounded.
Did this ball come from such a powerful and advanced civilization? They explored the entire universe? Even studying how to go to other universes
Gawain himself is a time traveler, and after discovering that the laws of physics here are different from those of the earth, he already wondered whether he had entered the so-called "different universe", so he was not surprised by the fact of time travel told by the sphere, but he was very Surprised that the race of this ball is so advanced... Then is it possible that this ball is the golden thigh that started the technological explosion mode by itself, swept the continent in half a year, unified the world in a year, and rushed into space in two years
After thinking about it for a while, Gao Wen chuckled: Just think about it, the laws of physics don't apply... In such a weird world, anyone who travels through will be blinded.
And this ball should be more blind than himself: the ball only has the world view of the ball, but at least he has Gawain Cecil's knowledge as a base...
At this time, Qiu couldn't help feeling emotional: "It's really not easy. It's not easy to be able to talk to people. People in this era are all ignorant and arrogant. Let alone the universe, time and space, just the people in your camp Help people, tell them about the atmosphere they can't understand... I think I've found someone I can talk to."
Gao Wen burst into tears when he heard it: The ball really spoke to his heart, so why not the emotion in his heart
A foreigner meets a foreign ball, this is really a fate! 8)
