"Wow... this should be a herbal medicine... this one is also..."
Holding the two handfuls of herbs in her hands, Imari looked at this and that, and was a little undecided for a moment. She didn't have the ability of Shennong to taste hundreds of herbs. If she were in her own world, Imari would be able to quickly identify some herbs and even edible mushrooms. But in this world, it was hard to say. She could only barely identify them according to what she had learned before. As for what the result would be... Imari didn't know.
Judging from the characteristics, these should be herbs, but Imari still can't figure out what they are used for...
However, at this moment, Imari's expression suddenly changed slightly, and then she pretended to continue looking for herbs, leaned down, and then the next moment, the girl suddenly kicked the ground and quickly jumped up. At the same time, an arrow "whoosh" flew past Imari. At the same time, Imari also stretched out his hand, summoned his soul weapon, turned over and landed, and swung it hard at the back!
"boom!!!"
The huge airflow instantly knocked the sneak attacking black shadow away, and then Imari took a step forward and put the sword in his hand directly against the opponent's neck.
"Who are you?"
Looking at the person in front of her, Imari was also very surprised, because she did not expect to meet a normal living person in this world!
Of course, those giants are definitely not normal living people.
But the person in front of him was obviously a normal living person. Her height was similar to that of a human, and her appearance was similar, with red hair, and she looked like a European or American. The clothes she wore were even more strange, and looked like the simple clothes that only primitive tribes would wear. Not only that, Imari could also see that the woman was wearing some shoulder guards made of metal sheets.
This weird feeling brought about by the combination of ultra-modern and primitive society...it really makes people feel a little at a loss for words.
The woman was single, and when she found herself being restrained, she immediately put down her bow and arrow and raised her hands to indicate that she meant no harm. Imari also put away his weapon and looked at her in confusion.
Then the other person stared at Imari and started talking in bird language.
"Ah? Hey? HELLO? HOW ARE YOU??"
Imari was stunned when she heard the bird language from the other party. Her English level was not high, or it could be said that the Japanese originally learned dumb English. In addition, Imari was only a high school student, and to be honest... she had always been hovering around the passing line in this course.
Although Haoling Academy also has English courses, it is strictly speaking a technical college, and the most important thing is still the teaching of combat courses. For courses like English, it is naturally better if you can learn it, but if you can't learn it... you can't learn it.
Being able to understand what the other person was saying in English was already the result of Imari not sleeping in class.
The other person looked at Imari and started talking a lot. Naturally, Imari still didn't understand.
"...FOLLOW ME, PLEASE."
After barely spelling a few words, Imari finally decided to take her back to the others first. Even if his English was not good, there must be someone who could.
If she remembered correctly, Toudou Kirin and Julie had always had good grades.
The other party was very obedient, quickly put away her weapon, and followed Imari obediently. Although Imari was also worried that the other party might deliberately let him down his guard and take the opportunity to escape, the woman was very calm and did not do anything out of the ordinary.
Soon, Imari brought her to the cave where he and others were hiding.
"STAY...HERE."
After stuttering something, Imari turned and ran inside... It was embarrassing to speak English.
Seeing Imari coming back, the other three were stunned for a moment, and they were even more surprised when they heard Imari say that she met a local.
but……
"I can't communicate with her. She seems to be speaking English, but I can't quite understand..."
Imari blushed a little, but Ikaruga Satsuki was full of confidence.
"Ah, don't worry about this problem, just leave it to me."
"Hey? Satsuki, is your English good?"
"Ah, that's not the case, but our brigade has a kind of magic that allows us to communicate directly with each other across language barriers."
“Ah… I see…”
After hearing Banjiu Satsuki's explanation, the three girls nodded with emotion, but soon Toudou Kirin seemed to have thought of something and looked at Banjiu Satsuki.
"Then... Miss Shayue, are you also using this in the English exam?"
“…Ahahahahahaha…”
Looking at Banjiu Shayue's evasive look, everyone knew the answer.
I have to say, magic is really useful in many cases.
After Imari brought the woman in, Ikaruga Satsuki came forward and started talking to her in a low voice. It was quite strange because the girls heard that Ikaruga Satsuki was still speaking the Japanese language they were familiar with. Logically, the red-haired woman should not understand at all, but she kept nodding her head and thinking, and occasionally replied...which meant that she really understood.
"Magic is tricky."
Seeing this scene, Imari complained to Todo Kirin with a bit of envy and jealousy.
"If I can do this, I don't have to waste so much time every day memorizing words, and I always forget them."
“Ahahahaha…”
Hearing Imari's complaints, Toudou Qilin also smiled bitterly. She had the same idea as Imari. In fact, Julie nodded silently beside her... Although they had excellent academic performance, it did not mean that they could not memorize words and grammar. And this process... no matter how you look at it, it is not a pleasant one.
After talking with the other party for a while, Banjiu Shayue ended the conversation and returned to the girls. The red-haired girl sat on a chair not far away, looking at the decorations around her curiously.
"I learned some information from her. The lady's name is Eloi, and she is an explorer of her tribe. She came out this time to track down the attackers who attacked her tribe. Then she met Imari. Because Imari was dressed strangely, Miss Eloi went forward to check. In short... it was just a misunderstanding."
"tribe??"
After listening to Banjiu Shayue's explanation, the girls looked at each other in bewilderment.
Even the tribes have appeared? Combined with those metal monsters outside, is this a science fiction world? Or a primitive society?
"According to Miss Eloi, there once existed a being called the Mother Goddess in this world, who created humans, machines, and creatures. But later, the machines became corrupted, killing some humans who followed them and left this land. Then they built a powerful mechanical civilization. After the mechanical civilization became powerful, it turned all the humans who followed them into their slaves, and returned aggressively, trying to defeat the Mother Goddess and make this world ruled by machines. But in the end, the Mother Goddess defeated the ruler of the evil machines and protected this pure land of mankind..."
"Well……"
Hearing this, the girls looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a moment.
"Is that true?"
"Maybe, maybe not... Anyway, we are not enemies. I have already explained this to her, and she has agreed to our request and is willing to teach us some knowledge on identifying herbs and making potions... Of course, it's not free."
"What does she want?"
The girls were not surprised by Banjiu Shayue's answer. There is no such thing as a free lunch in the world. If the other party really expressed that he was willing to do it for free, they would have been more alert.
"She wanted us to help."
Banjiu Shayue spoke.
"She said that a general from her tribe led his men to track down the killers who destroyed the tribe, but he never came back. She hopes that we can go together to support the battle."
"I see……"
Hearing this, the girls looked at each other and nodded.
"no problem."
After all, this is the only chance for them.
Just as the girls were preparing to start a new journey, the square airship rushed through the roaring thunderclouds. When the blue sky appeared again, Katima even felt like crying.
"It's great to be able to come out alive..."
"Is it really that exaggerated?"
Looking at Katima who was almost crying with joy, Fang Zheng was puzzled. He drank Coke leisurely and shook his head.
"It was just a thunder, look how scared you were..."
"Is this a matter of thunder?!"
Hearing Fang Zheng's words, Katima was speechless. They had been traveling in the thunderstorm for two days and two nights. During these two days, the entire window was filled with dark clouds, and countless lightning struck the airship from all directions. Several times, Katima had the illusion that the airship was about to be broken by lightning... Fortunately, it now seems to be just an illusion.
But thinking of this, Katima glared at Fang Zheng unhappily.
It was all his fault. He said that the view should be good and the bridge should be highly ornamental, so he made most of the bridge glass. Katima felt that the glass was in danger of being blown up by lightning. If it was really a tin box that couldn't see anything... there would be no need to worry about it.
However, Khatima's complaints did not last long, because before long, a piece of land appeared at the junction of the sea and the sky.
"Is that the Dark Continent?"
Looking at the slowly growing land, Katima couldn't help but get nervous, while Fang Zheng just narrowed his eyes, thought for a moment and shook his head.
"It's hard to say... We'll know after looking at the situation."
As he spoke, Fang Zheng fiddled with the terminal in his hand and stared at the contents on it.
To Katima, nothing seemed to have changed, and the same was true for Fang Zheng, but the detection results before him showed another reality.
If the above detection results were correct, then from the time Fang Zheng entered the thundercloud to the time he came out, they actually traveled a distance almost as long as half of the solar system. But this was obviously impossible, after all, the airship was only moving at a cruising speed and did not speed up.
Could this thundercloud be some kind of hyperspace passage?
Fang Zheng was not unfamiliar with similar technologies. In fact, warp engines and jump engines were like this. They could open a channel, allowing a warship to instantly cross the sea of stars and pass through several galaxies in the blink of an eye. However, their speed did not increase. This was also normal, because generally speaking, the speed was based on the relative speed in the classical universe. However, in the hyperspace channel or plane channel, the relative speed of the classical universe was not applicable.
Therefore, even if you ride a bicycle at a speed of 10 kilometers per hour into the hyperspace channel, you can "ride" from the earth to Mars in just a few seconds.
Of course, this won't change the speed you're riding.
Therefore, if the terminal detection result is correct, then the thunder and lightning rain cloud that he passed through is actually a hyperspace channel.
No wonder most people can’t get there.
So, the Order Clan should be good at...
Thinking of this, Fang Zheng put away the terminal and stood up.
"Okay, let's go see what's on this continent."
