Hao Ren was curious about the credibility of the legend about the ancient magic civilization being destroyed because it angered the goddess. He had always believed that legends were not groundless. No matter how distorted the myths were, there should be a solid prototype. Even if the ancient people made up stories, they still needed inspiration, right? The myths and legends on Earth seemed so mysterious now, but were there not a bunch of real otherworldlings that were jumping around in that era? Vivian knew Odin...
So, he felt that the existence of an ancient civilization in The Plane of Dreams was probably true. The talking wolves in front of him, which seriously violated the theory of evolution, were probably related to the biological modification experiments of that year. It was just that the issue of "the goddess destroying the world" was still up for debate.
He just did not know if this ancient civilization could help him uncover the mysteries of The Plane of Dreams.
Hao Ren discussed the current information with the MDT in his mind. It was fast and undetectable. "I remember Raven 12345 said that The Plane of Dreams and the real world evolved at the same time. That is to say, the historical process here is also linear, and time passes at the same speed as on Earth. There was a catastrophe here thousands to 10,000 years ago. If we can find some traces of it at the corresponding time on Earth, we can probably determine some mapping relationship between The Plane of Dreams and the real world."
"A big event on Earth 10,000 years ago?" The MDT rummaged through its database. "Humans were walking upright, werewolves and vampires were fighting, Odin's second cousin ran away with a cripple, a demon hunter named Cesar stewed Fenrir's brother-in-law, a small meteorite hit near the equator, and after a few years, it became the source of iron for the local primitive tribes... Well, the rest are even more trivial, not worth mentioning."
"... What kind of nonsense is this database of yours?" Hao Ren asked.
"I don't know. My database was entered by Madam Raven. How would I know where she downloaded the pirated information from?" The MDT pushed the blame away. "So, you must be out of your mind to discuss this historical event with me."
Hao Ren said, "... I'll wait until I go back and ask Vivian if there were any big events on Earth at that time."
"How are you so sure that the big event that happened in The Plane of Dreams 10,000 years ago will be reflected on Earth?" The MDT was curious why Hao Ren was so sharp and confident this time. "You are usually a slow guy."
"It's just intuition," Hao Ren answered in his mind. "Raven 12345 said that The Plane of Dreams and the real world are mirrored, but I haven't grasped this mapping relationship yet. The biggest event that happened here in the past 10,000 years should be the destruction of the ancient civilization. If such a big event did not affect the earth … then I have misunderstood from the beginning. I didn't understand what Raven 12345 meant."
The MDT thought for a moment and felt that it was not its job scope. So, it said, "I'm just a PDA" and went into hibernation mode. Becky and the alpha wolf stared at each other for a while. Then, she poked Hao Ren's arm with the hilt of her sword and asked, "Are we leaving? Or do you want to catch up with your wolf friends? I think you can find the human town with these wolves leading the way. "
"I'm not going to the human town." The alpha wolf immediately took two steps back. "You guys eat everything. What if you stew me?"
Hao Ren gave Becky a look that said, "You see, it's like this". "Well, as you can see, you have to take me there."
As he said that, Hao Ren's attention suddenly fell on the big bag that Becky was carrying. "By the way, this time these... uh, medicinal herbs count as my contribution, right?"
"Oh, right, if you didn't mention it, I would have forgotten!" Becky suddenly understood. She grabbed the bag and was about to give some to Hao Ren. "Mercenaries value fair trade the most. I'll give you half. But speaking of which, your fighting style is really unique. This is the first time I've seen a melee sorcerer in my life. Did you hurt your head? "
Hao Ren was too lazy to correct the girl's stubborn misunderstanding. He just waved his hand and said, "I'm not interested in these bone plates. I just want to discuss with you. How about using my loot as a reward for leading the way? This... uh, I still have use for the music box. "
Hao Ren had a good idea. The MDT would eventually come back on its own. He had used the MDT to trick the girl. At first, he had no other choice. But now, he could return the favour with a pile of bone plates that he was not interested in. This would make Hao Ren feel a little better. However, Becky's stubbornness did not give Hao Ren the chance to do so. "No! I want your music box! "
Hao Ren said, "... You have to think carefully. This thing has no other use except to play music. Your half-bag of bone plates is worth more than a music box."
"Who said that? Your music box can fly!" Becky was quite stubborn. "Girls like beautiful things. It's unreasonable!"
At this time, the alpha wolf suddenly said quietly, "You guys continue to chat. I'm going elsewhere to hunt with the cubs. Why do I feel weird watching you guys haggle with the things you cut off from the wolves..."
"Haven't you always treated these idiots as your own kind?" Hao Ren was surprised that the alpha wolf actually cared about this. If he had known earlier, he would have led Becky to hide in a place that was not in the way. "And your men have killed more wolves than Becky."
"Can't help it. They look too similar. If you saw a pack of wolves eating humans, you would be disgusted too," the alpha wolf muttered. The alpha wolf muttered, then turned its head and howled to its pack. After saying goodbye to Hao Ren, it ran into the distance like a gust of wind.
"What an interesting species," the MDT commented in Hao Ren's mind. "Caught between a beast and a human, it has two consciousnesses at the same time. It uses the wisdom of a human to think about its life as a wolf. It must have felt awkward watching the two of you haggling just now."
"It's my fault," Hao Ren said apologetically. "It's mainly because it talks so well that I forgot it's a wolf."
"It's like this after living with a magical creature for a long time."
Hao Ren was speechless.
In the end, Becky still stubbornly wanted Hao Ren's music box and stuffed half a bag of bone plate fragments into the latter's hand without any explanation. Hao Ren found it difficult to influence the heroine's thinking circuit, so he could only give up.
If they could meet again in The Plane of Dreams next time, he would bring her a real music box...
The two strange traveling companions embarked on their journey again, and it was smooth sailing from then on. Not sure if the alpha wolf had led its pack to clear the other beasts around them, but anyway, Hao Ren thought he saw a few black wolves in the distance when he passed by a few grassy hills. Soon, Hao Ren vaguely saw the outline of a town in the distance.
"That's Lamberg Town." Becky raised her whip and pointed at the vague outline of the city wall in the distance in the undulating sea of grass. "Although it's just a town, it's very large. Look, there's even a city wall!"
As the two got closer to the town, Hao Ren also saw the appearance of this' Lamberg '. He saw a circle of gray and white walls surrounding the town. The material did not look like stone, perhaps it was some kind of man-made material. There were also towers and sentinel-like facilities on the wall. He was not sure if it was to guard against the herds of beasts on the grassland or other enemies. As they were coming down from a slightly higher mound, Hao Ren could still see the situation inside the city wall. He saw that the buildings in the town were orderly. Most of them were two-story buildings with sloping roofs. The houses were square, and the roofs were uniformly inclined to the southeast. This should be a local architectural feature. Most of the taller buildings in the town were located in the middle of the town. One of the facilities with a pointed roof and stained glass decoration caught his attention. But it did not seem to be the time to ask questions, so he did not ask more.
The town looked very close, but that was because the grassland had a wide view. In fact, it took them a long time to run there. When the two finally arrived at the entrance of the town, Hao Ren suddenly heard a notification from the MDT. "Attention, you're going to 'wake up' soon."
"Buy me some time. Let Y'zaks and Nangong Wuyue wait. I'll try to close my eyes." Hao Ren said. At the same time, he felt that his senses were a little sluggish. It seemed that the connection between this body and The Plane of Dreams was unstable. This was the first time he noticed this detail.
"We're here." Becky pulled Hao Ren down from the horse. "Do you need me to show you around?"
"Uh, try your best." Hao Ren mumbled. He felt that Becky's voice was a little distorted. He saw Becky greeting the guards at the entrance of the town. Another young man passing by looked curiously at this "weirdly dressed" outsider.
Under such circumstances, Hao Ren could only try his best to keep his eyes open. He wanted to capture as much information as he could before leaving The Plane of Dreams. He could vaguely hear the sound of waves crashing into his ears. Nangong Wuyue seemed to be singing a strange song. His vision slowly swayed and blurred...
In the last few minutes, he turned his head and saw a decorative pattern on the wall of a house by the road. The pattern was particularly familiar.
It was the Letta rune.
Becky heard a few exclamations from the passersby behind her. She turned her head and found that the strange magician had disappeared. There was only half a bag of Black Wolf Bone Plates that she had given to him on the ground.
"Really? Using teleportation just for a music box?" Becky was stunned. "I didn't force him... He must have hurt his brain when he fell."
(Anyway, I have nothing better to do. Please vote!)
