Wilderness Age

"Rhinoceros" is Ding Sheng's name for this tribe with beast-like features, because the sharp horns on their noses are shaped like rhino horns.

Ding Sheng is the name of a soldier in camouflage uniform.

He was far more familiar with this place than Yu Ze and Chu Xingzhou. After leading them through the bushes not far from the river bank, they found a cave in the middle of the hillside, hidden by bushes and vines.

This is the place where Ding Sheng is hiding, and it is a relatively safe place. The midday sun shines in from the hole on the sunny side, making the hole not too dark. The three of them sat down here.

"Are you hungry? Being chased by those rhinoceros for a long time must have consumed a lot, come and eat." Ding Sheng took out dry food from his backpack and distributed it to the two of them.

After Chu Xingzhou took over, he also contributed part of their own food reserves.

Ding Sheng recognized the source of the ingredients sharply: "Swamp crocodile meat, grilled crocodile meat is delicious!"

The three shared food, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.

When he knew that the soldiers in camouflage uniforms were Chu Xingzhou's older brother Chu Xinghe's subordinates, Chu Xingzhou couldn't hide his joy.

The camouflage uniform was obviously also very happy. After a few brief exchanges, especially after knowing that both parties knew Wu Wei, they became more convinced of each other's identities and virtually established a bond of trust.

"There are too many people who know Chief Chu. Knowing that Chief Chu is looking for his younger brother, several of them came to pretend to be. Wu Wei is different. This old boy left early, and we in the first team knew that he was going to the younger brother of the Chu family. By your side. By the way, why isn't he with you?"

Chu Xingzhou briefly narrated how they fell into the river and into this strange place.

When Yu Ze was dragged in by Guan Xuelin, Chu Xingzhou followed in immediately. At that moment, he had no time to think or say anything, so he didn't know what happened to the people outside after the two of them came in. up.

"When we fell in, someone said 'the door is open', do you know what 'the door' means?" Yu Ze felt that this question was very important, even if he couldn't get the answer from Ding Sheng, he could still communicate, Listen to him talk about his knowledge and experience here.

Unexpectedly, Ding Sheng gave an affirmative answer without thinking: "Of course, although the saying is different, but I know."

Yu Ze and Chu Xingzhou looked at each other and asked, "What is it?"

"It's the gap between worlds and worlds."

This statement shocked Yu Ze and Chu Xingzhou, and for a moment they seemed to have glimpsed a corner of the truth of the world's mutation.

Countless more questions came up.

Which worlds are at the two ends of the rift?

Why did the Rift come into being?

Is it possible for those who fell into the rift to return to this world?

What is the trend of the crack, will it expand or disappear in the future?

"The people who just heard about it all have the expression you have now." Ding Sheng smiled with a relaxed expression, "Don't panic, it's not that bad."

Just like what Yu Ze and Chu Xingzhou experienced, people who just fell into the rift will feel confused at first, being chased by the ever-changing scenes and monsters, exhausted, chaotic, and after getting used to it, they can talk and laugh happily. It means that after staying for a long time, the danger will be less, but those who can persevere have a very strong level of willpower and resilience, and have a better mentality when facing difficulties.

"By the way, you two are also supernatural beings, right?" Ding Sheng tore a large piece of crocodile meat and asked while biting, "What kind of ability?"

Chu Xingzhou first pointed at himself and then at Yu Ze: "Wood and space."

After a pause, he asked again: "So, do you mean the gap between the world and the world literally?"

"Yes."

"How did you find out?"

"I didn't discover it personally. Our intelligence team came to this result after investigation and multi-faceted judgment."

Both of them were taken aback. If this was the official conclusion drawn through collective investigation and demonstration, then the credibility of this news would be completely different.

Chu Xingzhou: "Can you tell me more about it?"

Ding Sheng ate the meat in his hands with a few bites, and clapped his hands after wiping his mouth: "Let me talk about myself first."

Ding Sheng jumped into the crack on his own initiative.

At that time, his team was performing a pursuit mission, and the enemy jumped into the crack when there was no way to escape. In order to complete the mission, Ding Sheng chased in with two teammates.

Ding Sheng's ability is quite special. He uses sound as a medium to affect the speed of objects. When the speed exceeds the limit, it can even form the effect of freezing time. Of course, this range is very small, and the radius of the frozen time range is only within an arm's length of him. , Ding Sheng's ability effect diminishes beyond this distance.

"At that time, our intelligence had already made a preliminary judgment on the rift, but it was not detailed enough, so it was decided that the three of us would continue to pursue it in an emergency, and the others returned to the base to explain the situation."

Ding Sheng felt a little helpless, "The two of them and I got separated later, but with their abilities, nothing should happen."

Back to the rift itself.

According to their intelligence, the cracks are distributed in any corner of the earth in an irregular and scattered state. The time of existence is not fixed, and they appear and disappear randomly.

In addition to mutated animals and plants, many unprecedented creatures appeared on the earth. After analysis, the expert group believed that these creatures came from the overflow after the crack appeared.

On the other side of the rift, there may be another world where these creatures once lived.

Ding Sheng and the others found that the situation was slightly different from what they had imagined.

First of all, this is not a whole world.

All the landscapes are broken. In order to have a more comprehensive understanding of where they are, the three of Ding Sheng have explored multiple scenes in a rapid march, and have experienced the state of ghosts hitting the wall several times, which shows that these places have boundaries. Yes, although they cannot be seen by the naked eye, or some places are too large to reach, but in reality they cannot go out.

Second, the time here is also broken.

There is no place where a complete day can be lived. Time is cut and divided into day or night. Before each day, you can see the darkness before dawn, and before each night, you can see the last aftertaste of dusk.

But no one can prove whether each day and night, each night and day, is continuous.

This was the confusion that the three of Ding Sheng had once had, but when they were trapped in the crack, there was no way to prove it.

They also encountered various difficulties, which can be overcome for a determined soldier, but the loss of a comrade-in-arms is the most painful.

Ding Sheng almost had to face this kind of pain. They met the shark race, which was the most powerful and dangerous race they had ever encountered in the crack.

They are good at using sound to create illusions to confuse their prey, and kill people invisible. Their sharp nails like blades, powerful arms and fast speed make them good at close combat at the same time. Some mermaids also have strange spells. The control is like an arm and a finger.

The three of Ding Sheng were marked by the shark tribe after they accidentally broke into the shark territory.

Their extreme xenophobia, especially their hatred of human beings, really made them suffer a lot.

The mermaid clan and the rhinoceros clan are feuds.

The rhinoceros live by water and grass, so they often clash with the sharks who live in lakes, competing for food and territory.

The rhinoceros can go into shallow water, and the mermaids can go to the shore not far from the lake and river. If there is a cross, there will be friction. The two races have the same pride and conceit, which is unreasonable. Over time, the hatred deepens and deepens. It can be said to be a food chain. Two of the top contenders on the

But their attitudes towards human beings are the same, they all yell and kill as soon as they see them, they are equally vile.

Ding Sheng also learned the method of establishing an anchor point from the shark.

"Anchor point?"

"Yes, you have all felt the feeling of being teleported to a random place every day when the time comes. The role of the anchor point is to establish your own safe point."

"The mermaids live in the water, and their abilities will be greatly reduced if they leave the waters where they live. The land is not suitable for their activities and they lack food, so once they are teleported to other places, the mermaids are always eager to return to their own land. Habitat."

"It was by observing the merman's whereabouts that we discovered a way to establish an anchor point."

The thing is like this. Specifically, when they first entered the territory of the Merman Race, although they had experienced a bitter battle, they still thought that they could get rid of this group of difficult guys after time passed.

Unexpectedly, he was chased and killed by the shark people.

No matter what scene they appear in later, the merman scouts can always find them, and there is even a way to encircle them to a specific location so that they will be teleported back to the merman's territory the next time the scene changes.

This phenomenon naturally attracted the attention of the three of Ding Sheng.

While dealing with the shark race, they searched for the answer.

When they gradually had an idea, one of Ding Sheng's companions unfortunately fell into a trap and was captured.

Although the three of them are experienced fighters, they will inevitably miss and be captured in the face of the mermaids who have both a numerical advantage and a home court advantage.

Ding Sheng and another person launched an active rescue.

The companion was seriously injured after being captured.

After they rescued the man, Ding Sheng asked his comrades to leave first with the wounded on their backs, and he stayed behind because of the advantage of his abilities.

It is conceivable that Ding Sheng, who stayed behind, was besieged the most violently, and the battle was as difficult as expected.

When the deadliest attack was about to hit, Ding Sheng activated his abilities to the limit, surpassing the speed of light, and freezing time.

At the same moment, when the time came, the day and night of the Rift World ushered in another exchange.

Ding Sheng was safe, but because of the distance, he lost contact with his comrades. Ding Sheng guessed that they might have been teleported to different scenes.

After escaping from danger, Ding Sheng tested the method they discussed alone, and the result confirmed their correctness.

They deduced the correct way to establish an anchor point, but unfortunately they never guessed what the mermen tracked them by.

Because of this, Ding Sheng can only wait after being separated from his companions, waiting for a chance luck to allow them to meet again.

The strange thing is that after that time, the mermaids stopped chasing and intercepting him, which is of course a good thing.

"About the anchor point." Ding Sheng continued to explain, "You should have noticed that here, in this cracked world, the scenes that can be seen in most places are not the landscape of the earth, what appears here is another world. Fragments. So..."

So to this land, they are outsiders and rootless duckweed, so when the time comes, creatures from other worlds can stay in place safely, and they, earthlings, are like water drops rolling on lotus leaves. With the swing of the lotus leaf, it is thrown to and fro, and thrown to any place.

Ding Sheng: "So the key point to establish an anchor point is to establish a connection with this land."

Chu Xingzhou: "So, what should we do?"
