Above The Sky

"thank you very much."

On the other side, although he didn't wait for a positive answer, Ian didn't take it seriously: "Excuse me."

On the contrary, in his heart, he could even say that it was a lot easier to put down a big rock.

--Do not worry? Of course he is not in a hurry, no matter whether this suggestion can be realized or not, at least his own safety will be guaranteed in the future!

You know, what he is going to do next is very dangerous in the lake forest late at night... It is really an unexpected good thing to have such an old knight who doesn't look weak and radiates golden light to protect him.

At this moment, Ian turned his head, he took out the rope, tied the corpse of Lin Bao and the native to his uncle, and then tried the weight. After feeling that it was still within the acceptable range, he took a step and continued to drag the corpse forward.

Whether it was the Lin Leopard or the indigenous attack, it was just an expected episode, and his destination was still the edge of the lake forest.

The old knight stayed where he was. He did not follow Ian for the first time, but closed his eyes and pondered.

"Ian."

Repeating Ian's name in his mind, the man thought in his heart: "Is the white people of Port Harrison..."

To the east of Whalesong Cliff, the Baisen Mountains to the south of Flying Flame Land, and the narrow coastline where countless giant redwood trees grow, all have a tropical rainforest climate. The pioneers more than 100 years ago identified this place as the territory of the empire, and the immigrants of the empire decades ago built several small port towns here, and Harrison Port is the largest of them.

The footsteps of human beings have therefore extended to the coast of the southernmost sea area of ​​the continent, but apart from these cities, more should be the primitive jungle area.

The man knew very well that Harrison Harbor was next to him, and the first immigrants in Harrison Harbor were a few families of sinners who had been exiled from the imperial capital or from the frontier and were sent to the edge of the world.

Inside, there is indeed a white people.

In such a family, it is not impossible for a Chosen One who awakened his psychic powers as a child to appear.

The people of Bai are those who appeared after the catastrophe a thousand years ago. They are a group of humans who are more adaptable to psionic energy and radiation. They generally live around the heart of the town where the radiation is most concentrated, and stay away from the cleanest forests—the natural environment will make them Rejection occurs, and the newborn has various aberrations.

"But even Bai Zhimin has awakened his psychic energy at such a young age, and is so smart and calm..."

Muttering to himself, the old knight had a complicated tone: "When was the last time I met such an amazing young man... when was it?"

That was about fifty years ago.

When the empire was in ruins and the great country was about to collapse.

"My mission..."

Opening his eyes, the man no longer recalls the past.

The old knight could sense that Ian had gone far and never stopped.

Sighing, then chuckling again, following the trace, the man continued to follow behind the boy.

- Anyway, those missions don't conflict with taking care of a child.

The forest is damp, full of moss and vines, with mulch and looming roots that make it difficult for even skilled hunters.

But the gray-haired knight, who seemed to be just a tired old man, was walking on the ground. He stepped on the dead leaves and branches, and passed through the forest like a ghost, without making any sound, or even an insect chirping.

Hearing the footsteps and marks ahead, the old knight knew that the boy had stopped, and it seemed that Ian had found a good place to dispose of the body.

Just suddenly, there is a familiar smell in the wind.

"Blood?"

Confused, the old knight muttered to himself, "Why?"

"Did I encounter an enemy again? But I didn't feel anything..."

Within the sensing range of the knight, there is no creature that can be called dangerous and can pose a threat to Ian.

However, a few seconds later, not far away, the sound of cutting flesh and blood faintly sounded in the woods, which immediately made him realize, but he was puzzled: "Are you cutting a corpse?"

——Since you have come to the woods outside the city, why do you need to dismember the body and bury it?

The smell of blood is so strong that even if there are not many beasts in the lake forest, they will be attracted from afar.

Even with the promise of your own protection, you shouldn't do this superfluous move.

The old knight felt that the cool kid wouldn't have done such a ridiculous act - Ian must have had an idea and a purpose.

So, he decided to take a closer look.

Immediately afterwards, following the traces forward, Yu Kongkuo looked at the man by the lake and saw a scene that was shocking even to him.

Under the moonlight, the sparkling silver waves rippling, and the wind slaps the lake rocks, causing the light mist to rise.

In this lakeside night scene, the white-haired boy was sitting on the lake rock to rest, panting tiredly, the gray-brown ragged robe could not cover his skin, and his calves that were far fairer than ordinary people were exposed through the holes.

At this moment, he quietly raised his head and stared at the starry sky above his head.

The slender boy's eyes are like stars, reflecting the moonlight in the sky.

Although there were not a few stars above the dim sky, and the few remaining were getting dimmer, the pale blue water-colored pupils were still staring.

This is a short break. After the break, Ian lowered his head and started to continue his previous homework.

The elf-like child took out his knife, waved it at the corpse lying flat on the lake rock, and cut it. All contradictions are full of contrasts.

He stared at the corpse with calm and serious eyes, just like an ordinary person staring at a stone, and like a researcher staring at his research materials, even with a little piety.

The sound of flesh and blood cutting sounded.

【Begin the human body analysis】

[Main anatomical samples: male white people Orsenna; subsidiary anatomical samples: male native hunter, wild female forest leopard]

[It is basically certain that humans in Terra World (excluding elves and other humanoid creatures) are exactly the same as humans on Earth in terms of appearance, have exactly the same body structure, and have exactly the same facial features and hair follicles]

[By comparing Orsenna and indigenous hunters, it can be roughly inferred that the white people are albino people with special genetic characteristics, while the indigenous people are severely malnourished and have adapted to the jungle life.

[The skin of all three anatomical specimens is quite tough. Normal human skin is thin, soft and elastic, but I don’t know if it’s the special physique of the Terran or Orsenna. His cortex is very thick and tough like a smooth cocoon, and the subcutaneous fat is also very thick. Thick, can store more energy, endure colder weather, and lose temperature more slowly in water]

[Aboriginal hunters do not have these characteristics, but their skin is as dry and hard as tree bark. In terms of pure hardness, it is only slightly inferior to real tree bark, and it is on the same level as forest leopards]

[As a wild beast from another world, the leopard can be understood with such tough skin, but both the natives and the white people have almost the same level of tough skin, so it is confusing]

[In addition to their considerable strength, humans in this world, even if they rely solely on their bodies, are extremely dangerous, medium and large predators comparable to jaguars or even bears. This is consistent with my previous speculation. 】

[No, overturn the previous idea]

[Further anatomy proves that the skeletal structure of the Terrans is different from that of Earth humans. There are several ribs on the upper side of Orsenna and the native hunter that merged into a thick bone plate to protect the heart. After self-testing and pressing, I can confirm that I also have the same skeletal characteristics, which should be the general body structure of the Terra people]

[The structure of the heart is not right, the heart of the Terra people is stronger, similar to the genetic modifiers used by the earth's military, even if it has been dead for a period of time, it still retains considerable activity]

[Why are muscle fibers so dense? And it's actually this kind of structure... This is not the shape of natural muscles! The natural muscle group is not so simple, clean and beautiful, but it is a bit like artificial muscle fibers used in space engineering prosthetics... No wonder the strength is so strong]

[Wait, why is there another small stomach around the stomach? Wrapped in muscles, it is a bit like the stomach of a bird, it feels very hard, and it is not actually used. But if you feel there is a chance, you may be able to activate it]

[If activation is enabled, digestion will be strengthened, and many things that ordinary people cannot eat can be digested by muscle stomach]

[Skin like leather armor, an amazingly active heart, an almost perfect muscle fiber group, and this second stomach...]

[Tara humans...are they really natural creatures? ! 】
