Chapter 622: Praise of the Plane
"Captain Wu Laifang, see you later."
"Go ahead, go ahead. If you can't do it, you can return early. Also, don't do it again next time."
Locke did not hide his intentions and made it clear that he was going to do private business, which was definitely not allowed in principle. As his superior, Wu Lai had to give him a few words of warning.
In the square called 'Ferry', Locke nodded when he heard this.
He then activated the Void Well in the northeast corner. Black and white colors were intertwined in the well, and slowly rotating clouds could be seen, making it look extremely deep.
Locke jumped in without changing his expression and disappeared.
"Newcomers are newcomers. They don't want to speed up their time to accumulate achievements and improve their strength. Instead, they are attached to the past and are not afraid of wasting time and energy."
Wu Lai looked at the closed wellhead, shook his head slightly, and then disappeared.
On the other side, Locke used the Phantom Void Escape Technique, putting himself in a special state to cooperate with the teleportation of the Void Well. The speed was unprecedentedly fast and the feeling was unprecedentedly strange.
During the journey, he even forgot the passage of time.
He didn't know how long it had been before a new light appeared in front of him. He shuttled through it alone and landed in a new world. Only then did he wake up completely.
"Just now - my consciousness was so hazy, and I felt like time and space were disordered. Could it be that the transmission channel opened by this Void Well goes through the Eternal Void?"
"You're thinking too much. There is nothing in the Eternal Silence except darkness. It is the most terrifying forbidden area for living beings."
"Let me think about it. It took nine days to reach our destination. This should be the Songzan plane that Master Wu Laifang mentioned."
Locke floated in the air, turning into his original appearance, and the Void Well disappeared.
He looked around and found that he was in a remote wasteland with sparse trees. It was also a barren area with a very low concentration of energy particles, far inferior to that of Danara and Wuyin Lingfang.
There are living creatures in the ground under the wasteland, but they are some weak beasts and insects, not worth mentioning.
"I was lucky to land in a suitable position."
After eliminating the safety hazards, Locke felt the change in his strength. There was a pressure from all directions falling on him, which directly reduced his strength by about 10%.
This suppression does not affect his strength at all, and his various abilities can still be used, which is undoubtedly a good phenomenon.
At the same time, it also shows one thing, that the Infinite Spiritual House is indeed special, allowing them to enter most planes easily.
Locke identified the directions, selected one of them, and flew quickly into the distance.
After a long time, he found traces of humanoid activity and slowed down. Soon he heard a sound and followed it to find a group of people. It seemed to be a hunting team returning with a full load of prey.
"Captain, you must be tired. How about I carry the prey for you?"
"Rob, are you okay?"
"Of course I can. Don't underestimate me because I'm small. I'm very strong."
Seeing that the young man who had just joined the team volunteered, the captain of the hunting team, Goss, did not hesitate to throw the spotted dolphin on his shoulder onto his shoulder, causing Rob to stagger.
Rob gritted his teeth, carried the spotted dolphin weighing more than 300 kilograms firmly on his shoulders, and followed the team closely.
"Captain..." After walking a distance, he began to pester the hunting captain and wanted to say something. "If you can carry this spotted dolphin back to the tribe without falling behind, I will recognize you as a qualified hunter and allow you to officially join the fifth hunting team."
How could Goss not know what he was thinking? Before Rob finished speaking, he spoke up.
Upon hearing this, the boy, who was no more than thirteen or fourteen years old, became so excited that he almost dropped the prey from his shoulder. He was so scared that he quickly adjusted his posture and steps, not daring to make any unnecessary movements.
His actions caught the attention of the old hunters, and many of them nodded imperceptibly in approval.
With the tacit understanding of the group, the team slowed down at some point, and more than an hour later, they returned to the brightly lit tribal castle.
"Captain Goss, you're back a little late today."
"It's just getting dark, and there are more prey this time, so it took us some time."
The tribal base is located in a valley, surrounded by mountains on two sides and with walls on the other two sides. The entire base is easy to defend but difficult to attack, and there are many tribesmen guarding the entrance to the city.
After chatting with the tribesman guarding the gate for a few words, the Fifth Hunting Team walked into the city bathed in light, and the city gate was closed.
Neither the hunting team nor the people guarding the city noticed that there was someone following them.
Time passed by minute by minute, the night gradually deepened, only a few lights were left on inside, and the whole city fell into silence. At this time, a vague figure floated into the city, appearing so silent.
The figure found a relatively respectable household and sneaked in quietly, and then everyone in the house fell into an even deeper sleep.
"Sheep-horned man, no wonder he has a pair of horns on his head."
"They live together, so it's no wonder they look different. Even their horns are different in size and length, and their hair is black, white, and brown. Some people haven't even completely transformed their facial features into human ones, and their animal features are distinct."
The figure was naturally Locke who followed.
He had been with Ivan for so long that he had learned a lot of tricks and could easily read the memories of some living beings. He soon figured out the basic situation here.
According to the memories of these people, this continent is called the 'Continent of Abundance'.
This is the Frostsong Highlands in the north of the Rich Continent, which belongs to a kingdom of orcs - the Kingdom of Wild Beasts. However, the city is located in a relatively remote area, in a frozen wasteland where the winter can last up to seven months.
The Frozen Bone Wasteland is also the famous exile land of the Wild Beast Kingdom, where lives a group of people abandoned by the kingdom.
In the frozen wasteland, ethnic groups like the Sheep-Horned People who have fixed castles for shelter have relatively stable and happy lives and are much luckier than many homeless wanderers.
"So there are humans here too. The human kingdom is under the leadership of the church. The territory is larger than that of the orcs, and the land is more fertile than that of the Frostsong Highlands."
"Orcs also have their own gods to worship."
“Tsk tsk, these people are not worshipping powerful beings from the fairy plane, right? If they knew that the so-called gods were the culprits who launched the harvest of life every thousand years, I wonder how they would feel!”
Locke remembered clearly that Chief Wu Laifang said that this Gezan plane was a breeding ground for the fairy plane. Whenever the time was right, it would use all means to launch wars and disasters, and harvest most of the creatures in the plane, and this cycle would repeat over and over again.
However, these have nothing to do with him. Facing the bloody sickle cast by the fairy plane, he is unable to act as a savior.
The most urgent task is to contact the boss and inform him of the latest situation to see whether to proceed according to the original plan, or find another way, or find a way to sneak into the real destination - the fairy plane. (End of this chapter)
