The boyfriends I picked up in the horror game looked weird

Su Xixi came to this different world two years ago. She has seen all kinds of people, as well as elves and monsters, but this is the first time she has met a "fellow countryman"!

The "fellow countryman" she refers to is that Bai Yao has an oriental face like her. Su Xixi knows that if she talks about time travel, others will think she is crazy, although she doesn't know if Bai Yao is the same as her. It was the same time travel, but being able to meet her "fellow countrymen" was enough to surprise her.

Bai Yao exchanged names with Su Xixi. She was a little interested in the "forgotten technology" that Su Xixi said. "There are many people like you outside. Can you fly around on a broom?"

Su Xixi shook her head, "Of course not. Since the accident twenty years ago, the empire's magic technology has gone back hundreds of years. Not to mention the tools that can fly in the air, even the trains running on the ground have lost their ability. The power source became a pile of scrap metal."

Bai Yao smiled, "What is the power source you are talking about?"

Su Xixi pointed to a dull stone on the broom, "It's this kind of magic stone. This is a cultural relic that I finally found on the black market. It's hard to find this kind of thing outside now."

The empire was once glorious, relying on highly developed magic technology. Neither humans nor elves could do without the magic stone.

This kind of thing can not only facilitate people's lives, allowing an ordinary human to do things that are like miracles, but its greater role is to be used in war. The reason why the empire can prosper can be said to be because of the existence of the magic stone.

But all the prosperity stopped twenty years ago.

At that time, a magical turmoil occurred. All equipment that relied on the power of the magic stone lost its function. Diviners were unable to divine, magicians were unable to use magic, and all magic tools were shut down, including naturally the military weapons of the royal forces.

The failure of the Philosopher's Stone made the country that was highly dependent on it feel as if it had been set back hundreds of years. The empire also tried to find ways to remedy the situation, but everything was of no avail.

People had to spend decades adapting to life without the Philosopher's Stone.

Even the magic stone that Su Xixi finally found was a defective product. She had a problem during the test flight, deviated from the direction, and finally fell into the woods. Fortunately, there were trees and grass as buffers, otherwise she would It must have been a heavy fall.

Bai Yao said: "Are there many people like you outside?"

Su Xixi replied: "I have never met anyone like me outside. Many humans have brown hair, while most elves have red hair. You are the first one I have met with black hair. People with black eyes.”

Su Xixi remembered what she heard during the adventure and said: "By the way, when I was sitting in the tavern before, I heard that a couple from the east were looking for their daughter. I heard that if they find their daughter , the reward is tens of millions of gold coins!"

Su Xixi sighed again, "I don't know who would have such good luck."

Tens of millions of gold coins are enough for her to do a lot of research!

Thinking of this, Su Xixi couldn't help but look at Bai Yao again. Bai Yao's expression did not change at all. The missing lady from the wealthy businessman was definitely not her.

Su Xixi asked curiously: "Do you live in this forest?"

Bai Yao nodded, "Yes."

Su Xixi glanced at the surrounding environment. She didn't know where she fell. She just said: "Fortunately, I didn't fall into the legendary Silent Forest."

If this was the Forest of Silence, there would naturally be no human residents.

Bai Yao blinked curiously, "Is there anything wrong with the Forest of Tranquility?"

"The people living there are all legendary monsters!" Su Xixi rubbed her arms, "I heard from the old man that there are ferocious centaurs and disgusting and terrifying swamp monsters in the Silent Forest, who will cook people and eat them. A ghoul, a little girl who confuses people with her cute appearance but doesn’t know how many years she has lived..."

Su Xixi lowered her voice, "There is also the shadow demon that can appear in any shadow. As long as you have a shadow, it can be everywhere."

Bai Yao glanced at the shadow on the ground. Her shadow was stretched very long by the sunlight. She couldn't see anything wrong. She raised her face and said with a smile: "Are they so scary?"

Su Xixi nodded matter-of-factly, "I found a lot of missing persons notices published by newspapers in the library. They said that twenty years ago, many mercenaries came to take risks in the Forest of Silence, and they died. , disappeared, it is said that someone later picked up the diary of a certain mercenary, which said that many people suddenly disappeared after crossing the creek, as if they had gone to another world."

And people who "went to another world" certainly never came back.

It is precisely because there are so many weird stories that cast a shadow over the Forest of Tranquility, so that no one wants to get close to this forest for so many years.

Bai Yao raised her head and glanced behind Su Xixi. A corner of the tower was hidden in the clouds, which was not very real. She asked, "Have you ever heard of the tower that exists in the forest?"

Su Xixi immediately said: "You are talking about the Tower of the Brave."

Bai Yao: "Tower of the Brave?"

"That's the name given in memory of the brave Gerald." Su Xixi's tone revealed admiration, "It is rumored that twenty years ago, Gerald went to the Quiet Place in order to save the princess who was captured by the evil dragon. Sen, after saving the princess, he was able to escape, but in order to protect the residents of Alton Town from being harmed by the crazy monsters, he walked back to the forest alone and suppressed the riots of the monsters."

Su Xixi sighed, "Of course, he died there too."

So the Tower of the Dragon became the Tower of the Brave, as if when this name is mentioned, no one will forget the brave man who once saved mankind.

Bai Yao asked: "People outside, do you still remember Gerald?"

Su Xixi never thought that Bai Yao would ask this question. She was stunned for a while, "This... more than ten years ago, many people were still spreading his stories, and some shops related to the brave were also sold in large and small shops. matter."

But as time goes by, the story of the brave man who was once a household name has now become nothing more than a line in the history books:

Gerald, the son of light, in order to save the world, he chose to throw himself into the darkness and lost the light of day. His name of "brave" is well deserved and will be immortalized forever.

Just such a short line summarizes the life of the brave Gerald.

But the people who are still alive outside are still struggling with their lives. In order to return to the magical era twenty years ago, the king sent groups of people to find new magic stones.

Everyone is still busy and there is not so much time to stop and think about those who have died.

Su Xixi was originally very relaxed, but after being asked this question by Bai Yao, she felt a little heavy for some reason.
