Chapter 1 Hamlet Town

The sound of the dragon tortoise driving was monotonous.

The swaying carriage is like a classroom on a hot summer day.

The combination of the two made the girl in the carriage drowsy.

The most impressive thing about her petite figure is the talent that is almost overflowing on her chest. The black and complicated long dress looks extra loose except for the overflowing part of her body, giving her a delicate and fragile feeling. .

She has silver waist-length hair that is troublesome to manage. She has a beautiful face that makes people fall in love with her immediately. There are tear moles under the corners of her long clear eyes. She is a beauty who will be highly praised even in the capital.

The girl's name was Melina, she was a time traveler, her beautiful golden eyes were looking out of the car boredly, her left hand was pressed on the handle of her lace parasol.

The simple cycle of natural scenery outside the window, mountains, forests, grasslands, mountains... and the top predator in nature, the dragon, has glided through the sky dozens of times and made the Dragon Turtle Car stop carefully.

Roar--

The dragon turtle car stopped again.

The dragon tortoise is a kind of animal with strong legs, even if it is dragging a heavy five-meter-long carriage, it can brake suddenly.

It's just a pain for the passengers in the car.

The passengers were bumped forward by the sudden brake, and the few people sitting in the seats in the narrow compartment also flew forward because there was no seat belt in this world.

Melina picked up the small lace parasol at hand, and moved aside, a terrified tower-like man was pushed back to his seat by the toothpick-like parasol, which was slender compared to his size .Undecided in shock, he turned his head and saw the picture of the girl sitting beside her in an elegant posture putting her parasol back and lightly leaning on the ground.

Hey.

The tip of the umbrella touches the ground.

The strong man reacted, first showing a very grateful expression, but when his eyes moved down, his complexion directly turned red like steamed hairy crabs, and he shook his head vigorously:
"Thank you, girl."

"It's easy to do." Melina straightened her waist. This action was too exciting for the simple locals. The strong man stared at the empty space in front of him, his eyes were straight, and he didn't dare to move.

"Are you from Hamlet?" Melina asked casually.

"Yes!" The burly man replied as if stressed.

"Explorer?" Melina tapped the handle of the umbrella with her left index finger.

"I'm just a collector, but I'm also an explorer, hahaha." The strong man smiled heartily, and scratched the back of his head embarrassingly.

Gatherers are one of the branches of the explorer profession. 90.00% of the world is unknown to purebred humans. Just like the forest in front of us, there are all kinds of terrible monsters inhabiting it.Repel or hunt these monsters, open up human living areas, and collect the cornerstones that can be used to build civilization from these areas. This profession is called an explorer.The gatherer is the most ordinary type of explorer, quite like the basic resource collector in games like Age of Empires 2, who has the ability to log, mine, collect berries, and hunt small herbivores.

The strong man in front of him is an ordinary collector.

However, even the most ordinary gatherers have the ability to gather more than one ton of grain per day, and they can easily run with a ton of heavy load on their backs.

Simply superhuman.

"Girl, what's your name? My name is Charlie Lillesde Bennom, and everyone calls me Charlie." The simple man with some charming thoughts in his heart looked at her eagerly.

"Melina is my name." She played with the handle of the umbrella, "A gatherer is also an explorer, so you should also have something that an explorer only has, [armed]."

"Are you curious about this?" Charlie pulled out the knife from his waist as if offering a treasure.

Said it was a knife, but only for his size.For Melina, it was a one-handed sword of acceptable length.

It exudes a slightly yellowish color of bone texture, the lower blade is unsharp, and the upper blade is sharpened with some azure blue light.This is [armed].

A kind of equipment that injects magical factors into it through special processing, so that the user's physical fitness can be strengthened.

Only those who are armed can become explorers.

Melina stared at the knife.

Charlie asked curiously:
"Aren't you a explorer? Mei... Miss Melina."

"No." Melina looked away.

"But your strength..." Charlie looked at the slender lace parasol held by the other party's left hand. He was an explorer after all, and could tell that the umbrella in the other party's hand was not armed.It wasn't a magical factor-enhanced device for ordinary people, it was just this ordinary umbrella that stopped me.That can only be explained as the girl's own strange power.

"I'm a banshee." Melina said calmly.

"Oh!" The strong Charlie couldn't help but make a surprised voice, and even the other passengers in the carriage looked over curiously.

There are many human races that are born with powerful magical factors, such as elves, blood races, etc., and the banshee is one of them, and the full name is the primate banshee species.

Many Banshees are great explorers, even capable of hunting wyverns alone.

For the lowest-level explorers like Charlie, banshees are similar to vampires and elves, similar to legends.

Charlie noticed that Melina was looking at her armor again, and said grandly:

"Girl, do you want to touch it?"

"..."

Melina looked away, and the corners of her mouth twitched, "No." She said, "I'm afraid I'll ruin your knife. It's a nice knife, and the design and processing of the mold are very good..."

"Hahaha! It's a matter of course!" Charlie laughed boldly, "We lack everything in Hamlet, but ah, there is no shortage of weapons! Those old men in the iron shop are important for many people from the surrounding area to visit Hamlet. The reason... yes girl, you said you are not an explorer, so why did you come to our town where the dogs don't bark?"

Melina smiled slightly, and touched her face with her right hand:
"There is a reason to come."

A few days ago, she received a letter from her senior sister.She didn't have a deep impression of this senior and she had almost no friendship, so that when she received the letter, she wondered if it was sent to the wrong person, but when she removed the sealing seal on the letter, took out the letter paper, and saw When there was only one line on the letter paper, she knew it was a letter for her.

"Hello time traveler, I was born again."

The envelope also contained 50 gold leu (purchasing power is about 5000 yuan), a map of the Weeping Peninsula with a small town called [Hamlet Town] circled in red, and an address in Hamlet Town.

an invitation letter.

The car continued to drive, and the strong man quickly forgot about his hometown, and instead muttered:

"Why do these dragon turtles stay where they are as soon as the dragon comes..."

"The characteristics of flying dragons." Melina's right index finger and thumb circled a circle around the eye sockets, "They are predators in the sky, and the eyes grow thick translucent cuticles to prevent dryness. This results in their static vision being very poor, but their dynamic vision very good, because the animals appear to be moving as a specific pool of color in their perspective, but still life seems to blend in with the surrounding colors."

Because of the previous incident, the strong man listened patiently, then nodded:
"Hahaha, although what you said is very clear, girl, I don't understand, what is dynamic, what is static, I don't understand."

Melina's right hand froze for a moment, and she put it back on her lap calmly.

"Dragon can only see things that are moving, they can't see things that are not moving. So when a dragon flies by, keep... still to avoid being attacked."

"Oh, now I understand!"

...

The closer the Dragon Turtle Car gets to the Weeping Peninsula where Hamlet Town is located, the more deserted it will be along the way... [Original Ecology].

The wild magic factor sprinkled in the undeveloped primeval forest, giving birth to giant trees hundreds of meters high, juxtaposed one after another, and on the huge branches branched out from the towering trunks, there were some dragon nests like bird's nests.

"Don't look at the danger here, but as long as you come at noon, those dragons won't appear, and you can collect a lot of good things here! I always like it here!"

The strong local man Melina helped on a whim played the role of a tour guide very flexibly.

Charlie not only acts as a collector, but also has a glorious past of facing the small black dragon species with a body length of about four meters and a height of two meters, but more is helping to transport goods and collect in several towns.

Just look at Charlie's stocky build.

The height is about [-] meters, and the muscle mass has reached the point of terror. Although the center of gravity is unstable, it is more than enough to do some gathering work.

If Melina stood up straight, she would probably be about the same size as the other party sitting down.

...

Through the virgin forest, it is a hilly grassland, and then the original road finally disappeared, leaving only a desolate rural grass path that cannot be recognized without a signboard, and the grass path finally disappeared between the volcanic mountains near the Weeping Peninsula. Among them, after passing the huge rock wall, you can see the huge Weeping Peninsula.

The terrain of the peninsula is nearly [-] meters above sea level, and the structure of the island is a concave sea erosion structure, which is large at the top and narrow at the bottom.

The town of Hamlet is located in the first half of the Weeping Peninsula, relying on the huge mountain range called Lonely Mountain.Most of its buildings are located on mountains of different heights, and the lowest level is a city wall made of logs, wrapping a relatively flat plain.This plain in the town called West Hamlet has the embryonic form of the livestock processing industry and agricultural product processing industry.This world is rich in products, and human beings have basically given up on fixed animal husbandry and agriculture, and instead engaged in pure processing.

East Hamlet is attached to the Lonely Hill, which is the center of the town and the residential area.The houses that look out of place are all located at the foot of East Hamlet, while the more decent houses are located halfway up the hill.From the outside, there is no place that looks like a commercial street, only a grocery street that is dirty enough at a glance.

The gate is guarded by a patrol composed of ratmen.

They opened the door with no attitude, just complaining, and let the dragon turtle car in.

After the dragon turtle car entered here, you can obviously feel the speed slowing down, and you can feel the mood of the dragon turtles gradually calming down from the shaking of the car body.

Most of the local residents got off the car at the gate, and to be honest it took a while to unload from the back of the car.The residents of Hamlet Town will exchange the wild wheat, potatoes, leeks and other crops on the Weeping Peninsula with some small animals hunted by gatherers with the port town of Innsmouth outside the Weeping Peninsula.This common exchange of goods between the two towns contains the basic principles of economics.

Gatherers like Charlie disembark at the entrance to East Hamlet.

There is a crude collector's guild here, they will exchange information and supplies here, and the most basic forging system is also provided here.

Melina and a businessman were left in the car.

They alighted at Post Office Station, the official alighting point in East Hamlet.

The station and the post office in this place have been combined, and as Melina saw after getting off the car, the combination of the station and the post office is a large tile house, with a strong smell of alcohol coming out of the open windows—— This is also used for tavern purposes.

After the businessman got out of the car, he ran towards the grocery street in the same way as he fled.

Melina wanted to follow the escape route of the merchants, along the gravel road, which could barely be called a street, to travel to the east of Hamlet, and observe the characteristics of this small town established in a deserted land. For ecology, it would be great if we could observe the unique architectural style created by the [wisdom of survival].The climate change on the Weeping Peninsula is more extreme. When I got off the bus, it happened to be the time of day and night. In just 5 minutes, Melina had changed from using the magic factor to lower her body temperature to resist the heat, to increase her body temperature to resist the cold. .Extremely cold and hot like a desert, the architectural style also tends to be ventilated during the day and closed at night.

She took the first step, and the luggage at her feet floated by magic, and someone from the station came out.

The middle part of the other party's white segmented skirt, where the abdomen should have been exposed, was equipped with a bright silver armor. The long skirt was sewn with steel armor, and her long black hair was tied into a neat high ponytail.Her face is beautiful, but she has a more prominent delicacy than beauty. She is a female knight who makes people think of a princess at the first time, but feels extremely sassy when she reacts. Her dark purple eyes are a little sinister. Doesn't look like a righteous female knight.

This woman is Melina's senior.

She stretched out her hand, clenched her fist lightly, with an unruly smile on her face:
"Yo, thick rice."

A greeting confessed the fact that he was a time traveler.
