This was the first time Hao Ren saw Becky in action, or rather, it was the first time he saw the human form of power in this world.
The flame and wind pressure on the blade might be the effect of magic, and the blade storm released by Becky while spinning was obviously beyond the limits of the human body in Hao Ren's impression. This was probably the "combat skill" of the Plane of Dreams. He stared at the scene with his eyes wide open and was amazed. Although the three supermen around him also had incredible super strength, the weakest of the three was a husky. Becky, on the other hand, was a "human". Hao Ren was getting more and more interested in the setting of the Plane of Dreams.
However, Becky's attack was thunderous, and her strength was beyond everyone's expectations. Under normal circumstances, a pack of fleeing black wolves could escape, but in the case of a surprise attack, they were inevitably strangled by the deadly blade storm. The whirlwind formed by Becky lasted for more than 30 seconds before subsiding, leaving behind a large spiral pit with a radius of more than 10 meters and a large number of dismembered black wolf corpses. Hao Ren and the alpha wolf rushed over to check the situation and found Becky vomiting at the bottom of the pit. She even vomited last night's dinner.
"... Are you okay?" Hao Ren asked.
"I'm fine, it's a normal aftereffect." Becky tried hard to hold it in, looked up and waved at Hao Ren. "Just vomit after the spin. This trick can only be used once. Wait a minute, I still have to vomit. Ugh — "
"Is this your traveling companion?" The black alpha wolf looked a little scared. "She's a magic swordsman... a very powerful group of human beings. I usually avoid them."
"Well, she's a temporary traveling companion." Hao Ren nodded awkwardly, wondering whether Becky was powerful or not. She was completely useless after spinning for 30 seconds. Even a three-minute superman could beat her up six times — but when she spun, she was really invincible, just like a personal meat grinder. Hao Ren wanted to try to open the shield to see how powerful this girly electric fan was, but he gave up after thinking about it.
Becky finally recovered after vomiting for two minutes. She wiped her mouth and jumped out of the pit in two or three steps as if nothing had happened. She looked at the black alpha wolf beside Hao Ren in surprise. "Didn't you say you're a magician from the Hognar Empire? And you were suddenly thrown here after a teleportation accident. How do you even know these mutant wolves? "
"Are they famous?" Hao Ren asked casually.
"Quite famous," Becky shrugged. "There are some very smart wolves in this prairie who can speak human language. It is said that they are the descendants of the experimental creatures left behind by the ancient magic civilization before the catastrophe. People who travel on the prairie will occasionally meet them, and they occasionally communicate with humans, so they are quite famous. But I've only seen lone wolves before. I didn't expect you to know a pack of wolves! "
The alpha wolf was very upset that someone was talking about its own kind so unscrupulously. It bared its teeth and growled threateningly. "Don't talk to me in this tone of talking about beasts, human. I'm not one of those inferior creatures who can't understand human language!"
Hao Ren quickly squeezed between Becky and the alpha wolf to prevent the two from fighting (the alpha wolf would definitely not be able to beat Becky). He explained how he met the alpha wolf. "Actually, I went to the prairie a few days ago, and I met the wolves at that time. I've been trying to teleport back for the past few days, but I've failed every time — that's what happened when you saw me fall from the sky. "
The alpha wolf opened its mouth and wanted to say that he was not wearing this when he appeared a few days ago, but it saw that Hao Ren seemed to have something else to hide, so it did not say much. Becky looked at Hao Ren suspiciously, and finally waved her hand indifferently. "Whatever you say, it has nothing to do with me anyway. Even if the sky falls down, it has nothing to do with me. You two continue to catch up, I'm going to collect the spoils of war."
As Becky spoke, she carried her sword to the dead black wolves on the prairie to collect bone plates that could be used as raw materials for potions. Meanwhile, the alpha wolf bit Hao Ren's trouser leg and tugged it. It whispered, "Is she in danger?"
"Don't worry, she won't do anything to you," Hao Ren said with a smile. "Just now, she really wanted to jump out and kill, but I stopped her..." As he said that, Hao Ren told the alpha wolf what happened just now. However, he was a little puzzled: Becky had to spit out two minutes of skill cooldown every thirty seconds, so how did she decide to jump out and fight with two packs of wolves at the same time?
Maybe the girl had other tricks up her sleeve.
"Can I ask you something?" Seeing that Becky still had to be busy for a while, Hao Ren remembered that he still had a mission of "exploring the truth of The Plane of Dreams". Since he was here and did not know when he would suddenly go back, he decided to take this opportunity to ask the alpha wolf about some of the terms he had just heard. "Just now, Becky said that you wolves who can speak human language are the products of ancient magic civilization? Is that true? "
"That's what humans say." The alpha wolf was straightforward. Unlike Becky, it would not be suspicious of anything that Hao Ren said, so it was a good person to ask. Now, it answered Hao Ren's common sense questions without any doubt. "It is said that seven or eight thousand years ago — or maybe ten thousand years ago. Anyway, that's the way you humans measure time. I don't know how many days and nights it is. Anyway, it's that long ago, there was a very powerful magic empire in this world. They were omnipotent, and their cities were built on the moon. The world at that time was countless times more prosperous than it is now. I've read in books that humans, elves, orcs, vampires, and demons, the population of each race was several times or even more than ten times their current population... Anyway, I think it's nonsense. Where did so many people live?"
Hao Ren thought about it and felt that he could take two photos of the Spring Festival to show the alpha wolf if there was a chance next time.
"This ancient magic civilization created you? Then why did they die later? "Hao Ren motioned for the alpha wolf to continue.
He often saw this kind of "ancient civilization met a disaster and was cut off, and a new civilization restarted on the ruins" in movies. Even scientists on Earth had speculated that there really was a super civilization in prehistory. So, he did not think that the ancient civilization mentioned by the alpha wolf was all just a legend. And to be honest... a group of talking wolves really did not conform to the theory of evolution.
"We have no history," the alpha wolf shook its head. "We don't think about so many useless things like humans, so we don't know where we came from. But many human scholars firmly believe that the ancient civilization had the ability to create a new race. Some even said that werewolves were a combination of humans and wolves. Later, that scholar was almost killed by a werewolf. As for how the ancient civilization came to an end … I really don't know. Look, I'm just a wolf. I learned to read from a strange old man for a few years. It's not even easy for me to read a book. If you have so many questions, why don't you ask that swordsman … No, that female? "
The alpha wolf looked at Hao Ren sincerely. Its huge face was full of an expression that said, "I'm just a little animal, don't expect so much from me, okay?". Hao Ren soon could not stand the look and was defeated. Just as he stood up, Becky's voice came from behind. "The Ancient Magic Empire? It is said that because of the research on artificial life, the goddess destroyed the world. "
"Are you done?" Hao Ren turned his head and saw that Becky was carrying a big, bulging bag in her hand. The bulging pieces of the bag should be the bone fragments collected from the dead bodies of the wild wolves.
"Easily earned a lot of money, today is really my day," Becky happily swung the big bag in her hand, "These wolves usually come and go like the wind, don't think that I'm good at fighting, if I didn't have the opportunity to ambush them, it's really not easy to get these. By the way, are you interested in the Ancient Magic Empire? But aren't you a sorcerer yourself? Why do you still ask these basic questions? "
"Legends vary from place to place. I'm interested in the different versions of legends from different places." Hao Ren finally came up with a less ridiculous reason before Becky became even more suspicious of him.
"Ha, what research? You people are really bored." Becky pouted. "Anyway, I heard from my grandpa that the Ancient Magic Empire violated the domain of God by researching artificial life. The mage emperor and the elven queen created some kind of perfect life and gave themselves many titles of God, such as the God of Arcane Magic, the God of Life, the God of Creation and so on. In the end, they went too far and angered the true God. In a rage, the Goddess threw her wine cup into the world. The wine in the cup turned into a sea of red fire, burning in all countries for three days and three nights, killing 80% of the lives. That's how the ancient magic civilization came to an end. My grandpa said that the red spots on the full moon in the Beinz Blood Lake in the west and the big red spots on the full moon are the traces left by the Goddess after she threw the wine cup. "
Hao Ren listened to this magical, absurd, but interesting myth in amazement. At the end, Becky sighed. "The Goddess really knows how to drink..."
