Someone's sudden appearance surprised Kaya, who was staying in the tent. The girl wasn't frightened by her mysterious teacher, but by the sorry state of the person in front of her.
"Have I been discovered?" Kaya asked.
The teacher in front of her was dressed in rags, as if he had been lost in the desert for a whole year and only managed to walk out by luck. The remnants of his clothes also looked rather old. Not only did they flutter in the wind, but they also looked like they would be torn apart at any moment.
In particular, there was an unknown protrusion near his crotch that was moving slightly. After seeing it, the girl's eyes slowly drifted away, her expression extremely unnatural.
Of course, Lin noticed Kaya's strange behavior. He looked in the direction her eyes were unconsciously looking, and the first thing he saw was the valiant appearance of his crotch. It was even trembling. Lin Sheng was shocked. He hurriedly reached out and pulled it out on the spot!
It was a magic pendant hanging from his waist. Because he had brought it into the Higher Dimension for too long, it had been corrupted and transformed into an Evil God. Now, it had become a strange creature that looked like a worm, constantly wriggling and squirming. Fortunately, it didn't have any teeth. Otherwise, with it so close to his manhood, if it took a bite, the happiness of his life would be gone.
Lin Sheng twisted his hands and tore the strange worm into two pieces. He then threw the remaining parts of the worm into the fire pit in the middle of the tent. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.
At this moment, he saw the only girl present. She covered her eyes with her hands, but he could see her wide eyes through the gaps between her fingers. Lin snappily said, "What are you thinking? Forget it, I can't be bothered to explain so much to you. Help me call Halumi back. I have something to ask of her. Also, borrow your elder sister's coffin. "
"Got it." After the girl answered, she obediently left the tent.
Lin Sheng took out a new set of clothes from his suitcase and changed into them. He threw the old rags into the fire pit and burned them directly. At the same time, he was reviewing this investigation operation in his mind. He had discovered many shortcomings in the process.
Halumi was assisting their elder sister, so Kaya didn't have to inform both sides. Not long after, he brought the people and the items back. At the same time, the bored Lich came back with him.
In a situation where the required materials were not complete, the work was done intermittently, and this really did not raise the interest of this person. So when he heard that someone was back, he came over to join in the fun.
As soon as they entered the tent, Fen asked, "Did you find anything interesting?"
"Basically, other than listening to their experiences in archery or talking about their families, I didn't hear anything useful. But the layout above, … "Lin once again displayed a 3D map. While explaining, he also made notes on the map," … this is suspected to be a sentry tower, this is a place where people live, this is a tree passage, … "
Fen had been listening attentively at first, but halfway through, she became dispirited and said, "It's not useful at all."
"That's right. It's too unrealistic to expect me to hear some shocking news on the first day I set out to scout. "
Someone's strange words made the three Bewildering Lands natives confused. But this man from another world would occasionally say things that they couldn't understand, but if they matched his words a little bit, they could still roughly understand. But compared to the bored Lich, the two girls were somewhat puzzled as to why someone called Halumi back.
"That's all I heard, but there are some things I saw that I need your help to analyze." While speaking, Lin fiddled with the Head Coffin.
His self-created Blank Slate Brush has developed many functions, one of which is the ability to reconstruct memories. Moreover, it was limited to things seen in the recent past. The longer the time interval, the easier it was for the memories to be distorted by subjective thoughts. Someone was still thinking of a solution to this problem, but he didn't need to worry about this aspect today.
The image displayed by Lin was the scene of the elven Extraordinary Luo Nan talking to his companion after he hid in a higher dimensional world.
The help of the Head Coffin was indispensable to make such a presentation. Although he had a format specifically used to store videos, the related magic couldn't be performed by just relying on people. Plus, the source of the video was the memories presented by the Blank Slate Brush. Many things needed to be converted two or three times before they could be used. In the words of Earth, it needed to be converted before it could be played.
Lich and her two apprentices had long understood these techniques, so they quickly focused their attention on the contents of the image. The current Bewildering Lands didn't have post-production techniques. At most, it could only be cut into fragments. There wasn't any technique to connect the different fragments. Of course, the reason was that there was no need for it at the moment, so someone didn't develop it.
It was precisely because the Bewildering Lands didn't have post-production techniques and because the memories Lin displayed now were the scenes he saw with his own eyes. Everyone's first question was: Why was it in black and white?
And during the process of the video, the two elves were the focal point of the camera. They were so close that even the hairs on their heads could be counted. Why weren't they discovered at such a close distance?
The two apprentices didn't understand. As someone who could also use Blink, how could Lich be clueless? She quickly noticed a certain someone's little trick and asked, "You're jumping into a higher dimensional world to avoid being discovered by others? Can it be used like that? "
"It can be used, but the aftereffects aren't light." A certain someone didn't want to hide this from Lich and directly told her the truth. "Of course, the person is fine, but it's the same old problem with personal belongings. Just by teleporting, after many times, it will cause contamination to the belongings. If you jump into a place like that and stay for a short while, the contamination won't just increase by a few times. It will be even faster. "
"Hmm, that's a problem." Fen knew very well what the biggest problem was that Blink couldn't be used routinely. Although they had found a way to protect it, it would increase the consumption of Authority by several times. However, those minor details could be put aside for now. Fen asked, "Why are you showing this memory fragment?"
"Because when you jump into a higher dimensional world, although you can see the real world, you can't hear anything. I want to see if Halloumi can recognize what the elf is saying from the shape of his mouth. "
The named apprentice's spirit was roused, and he began to think about what his teacher had told him. Actually, lip-reading wasn't unfamiliar in the Bewildering Lands, even though it was considered a very high level skill. Those who developed this skill weren't to communicate with mutes, but rather to meet the needs of spies to gather information.
Aside from relying on practice, this skill also required a lot of talent. Of course, there were also some supplementary methods to increase the possibility of recognition. The most important of these was the problem of the language environment. One had to piece together the meaning from the possible sounds before and after. Another difficulty for Halloumi was that the other party was definitely using the elven language, and that language wasn't Halloumi's mother tongue. Of course, there would be some difficulties in using it.
However, there was only one person she needed to pay attention to, and that was the elven Extraordinary: Ronan Peterson. This was because his companion was wearing a mask on his face. Under these circumstances, being able to read lips from the mask was already at the level of a deity. Halloumi, who had only touched upon this skill today, obviously couldn't reach that level. So she only paid attention to Ronan's lips.
After watching the image several times, Halloumi could only guess two sentences in the end. "It will be over in three days." "They will probably give up."
As for the other sentences, she guessed some of their meanings, but they were incoherent. She couldn't see the shape of the lips of the person talking to her, so she couldn't determine what the other elf was saying. This was the difficulty in lip-reading this time. In the end, Halloumi, who couldn't guess any further, asked: "What do they mean by saying these words?"
"From what we already know, no matter what they are planning, they will see the truth within three days. As for the words' they will give up ', it can be guessed that this matter is not to force anyone to accept their way of thinking and doing things, but because there is no turning back, the other side will' give up 'and not continue to cause trouble for them. "
"So, if we don't do anything, we'll return empty-handed in three days at most?" Halloumi asked.
"There's also another possibility. Within three days, the Divine Wood Guards will launch an attack on us. At the very least, they will kill me and your elder sister. At that time, the elves won't be able to carry out research on the World Tree's advancement in a short period of time. At that time, we will have no choice but to give up. "
"Can it be done like that?" Halloumi was surprised.
"Why not?"
Fen interjected: "So, do we have to wait for them to make the first move? Or do we have to take the initiative to attack? "
"No, of course not. This is just my guess. After all, we only heard fragments of the story without any cause and effect. It's far from the truth. The only thing we can be sure of is that they are hiding something from us. And this' they ', I'm not sure if it's just Lahti's Divine Wood Guards or all the elves. The second thing we can believe is that it will happen within three days. Apart from that, it's just a guess. We need more evidence and facts to make a judgment. "
"Then what should we do?" Halloumi asked. This was also the question of the other two.
"Do as usual. I will continue to search their restricted area. The two of you … "Lin looked at the two girls," … try to use a program analysis method to enhance the analysis of lip-reading. "
As a certain someone spoke, he operated again. In the replayed memory fragments, he captured the appearance of the elf walking beside the Extraordinary Ronan Peterson into a picture and sent it to Lich. Fen opened the picture file sent to her. With a glance, she understood what a certain someone was thinking and said: "It's not a problem for me to take this to inquire about information from Li Ena. But why do you care so much about this elf?"
Lin didn't explain directly. Instead, he continued to play the replayed memory fragments for everyone to see. Of course, the focus was on the elf he was concerned about making a sudden turn around to investigate the anomaly, as well as the other party jumping from the real world to another world. Only then did he say, "Li Ena once said that there are two Extraordinaires and three Druid elders in the Divine Wood Guards. I want to know if this elf is one of those two Extraordinaires. Or rather, this is an expert that even they don't know about. "
