Ark's Journey to the Demon God

"Who are you?" Shen Muke asked tentatively

The young man did not answer. Instead, he turned behind him and shouted: "Teacher! I found a person in trouble!!"

A person in distress?

Shen Muke was a little embarrassed. Why was he the one in trouble?

Moreover, this young man's accent is also very strange.

What he spoke was obviously in Victorian, but it sounded indescribably awkward to Shen Muke.

It feels like northerners listening to Cantonese Mandarin. They can understand it, but it's just not smooth.

And his timbre is very familiar!

Under the greetings of the young people, white figures emerged from the dense forest. They all had the bookish style unique to literati and scholars. More than half of the members wore glasses, and everyone had an indescribable tiredness.

This is a scientific research team?

Shen Muke looked at these scholars in surprise, waiting for them to introduce themselves.

An old scholar with white hair walked up to the team. His glasses were scratched all over, making him squint unconsciously.

"Hello, Mr. Lone Walker, it seems that we have to travel together for a while."

Chapter 13 In the rainforest

Sargon border, deep in the rainforest.

As night gradually fell, a group of researchers used tools to open up a clearing, lit a bonfire with collected trees, and set up tents around the bonfire.

The climate in Sargon's rainforest is very humid. Ordinary northerners from the mainland are prone to contracting diseases such as wind fever. In addition, the hybrid snakes, insects, rats and ants that compete for the survival of the fittest in the rainforest add to the wildness. danger.

The firelight illuminated everyone's faces, and the researchers who had been marching for a day finally had a moment of peace.

Moreover, there is an unexpected harvest today.

Passing a bottle of energy drink to Shen Muke, Professor Thorne sat down with a smile and started chatting with him.

【Sass】

Energy research team from Colombia.

In the original plot, around 1075, they entered Sargon for technical assistance and scientific research.

Because their plot does not involve the main plot, they have been left behind by Shen Muke. However, when they meet at this time, people unconsciously feel that the world is really small.

The leader of [Sand Soldiers] is Professor Thorne.

Professor Thorne has a student named Elliot.

he!He is the only designated god of the Ark, the pinnacle of six-star male chain warlocks, the origin of the real name of Hand of God in meat pigeon mode, and the great existence written as Stranger and read as True God!

Let us say it together: Kemen!

Hey, hey, hey, just kidding~

At this time, Elliot was just an ordinary graduate student in Columbia. He followed his teacher into Sargon for the purpose of researching Originium energy and providing technical assistance to Sargon.

Although they don't know it yet, their names have been penciled out from the beginning...

He raised his hand and clinked glasses with Professor Thorne politely.Shen Muke respects such people very much. An old scholar who has a high academic level but is willing to go to remote areas to provide technical assistance is undoubtedly respectable.

Professor Thorne has a very good personality. He smiled and clinked glasses with Shen Muke and said, "Oh, you're welcome! It's our wilderness tradition to help lone travelers!"

Until now, Professor Thorne thought Shen Muke was a lone traveler who had lost his luggage.

Shen Muke didn't bother to explain, so he followed the old professor's train of thought and communicated with him: "The tradition of the wilderness? Could it be that Mr. Thorne also worked hard in the wilderness?"

"When I was young, my family was relatively poor. The wilderness is also a way out for young people." Professor Thorn waved his hand and said: "Don't call me sir. I see you are about the same age as me... you

Just call me brother. "

Brother?

Shen Muke was a little embarrassed. His current face was inconsistent with the facts.

Looking at the old professor with a gray beard in front of him, Shen Muke really felt that he couldn't scream, so he finally had to bite the bullet and said: "What about Brother Thorne?"

Professor Thorne smiled and took a sip of his drink. He was very happy to meet another friend.

"Speaking of which, brother Thorne, why on earth did you come to this rainforest?" Shen Muke asked, having nothing to say.

"I was invited to come here to get some help... Hehe, brother Agaritu, where are you from? How did you end up in trouble here?" Thorne said casually.

"Me? I'm from Casimir. I traveled here...Speaking of Brother Thorne, I'm not in trouble." Shen Muke shrugged and said, "I just have less luggage..."

Little luggage?

Thorne looked around Shen Muke. He seemed to be carrying a cane, right?

Shen Muke stretched out his hand, shook it briefly, and a piece of dried meat appeared.

"Oh oh oh, that's awesome!" The movement on his side quickly attracted a group of researchers, and more than a dozen people came over, talking all over the place:

"Is this space technology? Or Origin Stone technology?"

"It can't be teleportation over long distances, right?"

"What's going on with you guys? Are you just so free? Let's eat while we're at it! We still have to find our way tomorrow!" Professor Thorne said seriously.

The crowd dispersed angrily, leaving only Elliot beside Professor Thorne.

"This is just a small Origin Stone skill, not a surprising ability." Shen Muke explained. He threaded the meat strips on the branches and roasted them on the fire.

"Brother Thorn, who invited you to Sargon?" Shen Muke pretended to be casual.

"Ibat, a royal chief in the Ibat region, sent an invitation to our company, so we came."

"Then, why don't you come from the north instead of taking a detour to the east?"

Ibat is in the middle of Sargon. The shortest way is to start from Colombia, go directly through the desert, and go from the north to the south.

Professor Thorne was a little embarrassed. He took a sip of the drink and said: "There are many mercenary activities in the desert, and there is a lack of water and food. It is too dangerous for us, a group of scholars, to cross the desert. Although the situation in the Akahula region is It’s also very bad, but at least there is enough water and food to replenish it.”

"The rainforest is not safe either." Shen Muke reminded: "If you are not careful, you may be bitten by poisonous insects and the like. If you are unlucky, you may get sick, and it is easy to get lost."

"In fact, half of it has been fulfilled." Professor Thorn said helplessly: "We are basically completely lost now. The map we bought from the local indigenous people is of no use at all. We can only rely on the compass to travel now. We Now just keep walking west, I guess I can finally find a place..."

Professor Thorne and his team are indeed real experts and scholars, but scholars are not omnipotent. The Sand Soldier team lost their way as soon as they entered the Sargon Rainforest, otherwise they would not have been so excited when they met Shen Muke.

In the vast forest, [Sand Soldier] and his party walked continuously for more than half a month. Shen Muke was the first outsider they saw. How could they not be excited by this feeling of meeting an old friend in a foreign land?

Shen Muke nodded his chin and said: "I have a way to send you to Yibat. We are on the way and can go together."

Shen Muke's goal was to enter the Foehn land southwest of Sargon. He entered from the rain forest to the east, and happened to be on the way with Sargon and his party!

And, there is one more problem.

[Sard] This trip was an arranged sacrifice.

Out of his respect for Professor Thorne and his affection for the little stranger, Shen Muke did not want them to become victims of the game between the two countries, let alone let the Ibat area turn into a chaotic area.

Therefore, he decided to help people to the end and send Buddha to the West.

"Are we on the way? That's really a good thing, but how are you going to find the way? Do you have a map with you?"

"My way is much smarter than the map~"

Shen Muke smiled, put his finger to his mouth, and blew a melodious whistle——

Boo! ! !

The roar of the eagle echoed through the sky, and in the middle of the night, the gorgeous eagle circled down, and finally landed firmly on Shen Muke's arm.

Under the astonished gazes of everyone in the army, Shen Muke smiled and said, "Let me introduce you to everyone. This is Mei Jin, my partner."

"In the next few days, it will lead us~"

Chapter 14 Exploration and knowledge-seeking are inherently luxurious

"What a powerful feathered beast. Do all Casimir people have such strange abilities?"

In the dense forest, Professor Thorne followed Shen Muke. They had been marching for two days.

In the past two days, the group of people relied on "Meijin"'s eyes to find the path. Shen Muke let it fly, and then used his authority to overlook the jungle to find the most correct path.

The eagle of Agares is immortal and travels thousands of miles every day. What it sees is what Agares sees.

When the condor opens its eyes, Shen Muke can connect with its vision and overlook the world from the perspective of a flying eagle.

Such a strange ability made all the soldiers even more surprised. They were surprised that this lonely Mr. Traveler had such a special ability, so Professor Thorne asked.

"It's just a small skill, nothing worth mentioning." Shen Muke shrugged his shoulders. He said that he was from Casimir, and it was entirely because of the other party.

identity considerations.

Thorne and others are Colombians. Considering the relationship between Colombia and Victoria (the so-called separation is a distraction), Shen Muke may cause some unnecessary trouble if he says that he is from Victoria.

And if you say you are a Kjerag... that won't do either.

The existence of Kjerag is very important to Shen Muke. He regards Kjerag as his starting point and base camp!At least before he officially takes that step, he doesn't want Kjerag to come into the sight of any unknown power. In fact, if it's not a hard demand, he doesn't even want Victoria to know Kjerag's existence!

As for saying that he is from the Yan Kingdom, that's fine, but the problem is that the face he is wearing now has nothing to do with Dayan. It can be said that it had nothing to do with it before.

In addition, there is no point in saying that you are from other countries, because you have never been there, and the truth will be revealed as soon as you say it.

Therefore, all things considered, Casimir is better at hiding his identity.

……

Perhaps because Colombia is a country based on industry and technology, Sazu and his party are particularly interested in some mysterious and mysterious mysteries that they cannot understand. In fact, they came here with the purpose of exploring ruins and excavating antiquities.

For them, Sargon is very charming with its long history and mystery, because Colombia was born out of Victoria, and Victoria occupied and developed this land for a short time. Therefore, the history of this country is very short. What? Things are basically clear at a glance, and there is no archaeological foundation at all.

As we all know, Terra's technological development basically relies on archeology, and Sargon is such a treasure.

Shen Muke couldn't quite understand how Sargon became what he is now.

Is Sargon's technology bad?That’s not necessarily true, because there are various signs that Sargon’s imaginary emperor is really quite capable.

The secrets and majesty of that legendary golden city are unimaginable.

However, the emperor had a laissez-faire attitude towards Sargon's land, allowing groups of Colombians to seize resources here and win over the royal chiefs and lords.

This is not the behavior that a normal emperor should have, so Shen Muke has always been worried.

"If you have the chance, you must enter the Golden City to take a look. At the very least, you must find out what is there."

Just as he was thinking about it, young Elliot came over and asked, "Mr. Agaritu?"

"how?"

"Nothing, I'm just curious. What is the purpose of Mr. Agaritu setting out from Casimir and crossing the continent to come here?"

"The reason?" Shen Muke smiled and patted Elliot's shoulder, and said slowly: "For an unknown answer, for a dangerous puzzle."

Unknown answer?

Dangerous puzzle?

The young Elliot still did not understand the dangers of the world. He wondered: "Puzzles can also be dangerous?"

"Of course, kid, of course." Shen Muke said with a smile: "All puzzles have risks, and any exploration and pursuit of the truth is luxury. It's just that people in luxury don't realize it."

"Is exploration and knowledge a luxury?"

Elliot thought back to his academic career. He didn't find it difficult at all. Maybe it was because he had good talents?

However, it feels like the way Mr. Agaritu and Mr. Thorne talk is also like a foggy and unpredictable feeling.six ⑨ four ⑨ three ⑥ one ③ five

"Elliot, Mr. Agaritu is right. It's time for you to understand these things." Professor Thorne followed and continued: "The puzzles in the world are not just those written on paper. , sometimes, even to ask a question, we need to persevere in research. Asking questions, understanding questions, and answering questions, our science progresses as a result. And in this, researchers need to pay day after day The cost is year after year, and even during the exploration, you may die because of it..."

Professor Thorn sighed with emotion, then turned to Shen Muke and said: "Speaking of which, Brother Agaritu, are you going to explore some ruins or forbidden areas? Is it dangerous? If it is so dangerous, why go alone? Why don't you find something? Are you going with your companions?"

Professor Thorne didn't understand. Their business was just providing some assistance and exploring along the way. There were more than a dozen people here. However, even with such a configuration, he still felt that the company's preparations were somewhat inadequate.

As for Agaritu, he was alone, oh yes, and there was an eagle, just like this one person and one beast, and they went into Sargon to explore and investigate together?

Shen Muke shook his head and said: "It's not that I don't have any companions, Brother Thorne. In fact, I have a similar profession to yours. I also have many students. They have different ages and personalities, but they are all excellent young people...I I don’t take them with me because they are not mature enough, and the place I am going to is too dangerous, so I have to leave them behind~"

"Oh oh oh, that's really..." Professor Thorne nodded repeatedly. He understood this mentality. As a teacher, students are like his own children. He is going through life and death outside, so how can he take care of his family?

"Speaking of which, Brother Thorne, your line of work is not safe. I see that your team is full of scholars. Don't you have any security forces? Sargon is not like Colombia. It is very wild here."

Professor Thorne shook his head and said: "You also see it? Haha, talking about this matter, we have to mention our supervisor Mr. Walter. If it weren't for my strong request, he would even want our team to include doctors and photographers. We don’t even equip the teachers, so we really save money to the core!”
