Chapter 4 Chapter 4 Grassland

Walking down the path guided by the instructor, the deep woods suddenly ended dramatically. "Wow!" In front of you is the endless green grassland.The endless sea of ​​grass seems to extend to the horizon. The refreshing wind caressed Wataru's cheeks.Looking to the left and to the right, you can see the grassland scenery as far as your eye can see.There are huge whitish rocks protruding from the ground like towers, and there are slowly rising places like hillocks, but most of them are extremely flat and have an excellent view. ——Let’s go in the direction of the rising sun first.

Instructor Rao pointed out like this. There is only one sun in the sky of the "fantasy world", which is similar to the real world, and it is not too dazzling to look directly at the sun.In "Saga", it is set that there are two suns in that world, and one of the suns is too hot, which becomes the fuse of the world's demise.It seems that there is no need to worry about this here. He picks the grass and walks low.There are no decent roads and no birdsong.From time to time, very small moths that looked like diamondback moths flew over, circled the rather fresh plants up and down, and then flew away.The only companion on the journey.

The bright grassland scenery was exciting at the beginning, but when walking actively on the open land, you have to face reality after all—no, it should be said that you are facing the fantasy world here. I can only keep going.First, there is no means of movement other than "walking", neither cars nor trams.Nothing to depend on but two legs. Even the protagonist in a role-playing game has to go step by step from the prologue to the middle.Thinking of this, I could have comforted myself, but there was something I couldn't figure out.Games are games after all.Even when walking with Ake in the "last danger" of "Saga II", the characters in the game will not be "tired" at all. I sit on the floor with Ake, sometimes lying down, Cola juice is free to drink.

The thought of a cold drink made me thirsty all of a sudden.Speaking of which, the tutor gave the lunch box at the end, but he didn't mention the drinks.One must look for places with water sources, rivers and lakes, etc. I thought I had gone a long way.Looking back, the forest that I left before is still lush and green behind me.so disappointed!How slow am I walking? There was no one to talk to, so we had to move forward in silence.The sun was strong, it was hot, and I was sweating profusely.The scenery remains the same.Thinking of "how about counting the steps", and shouting "one, two, three", this time I got a little excited.Only then did I realize that being so tormented by a sense of helplessness must have something to do with not knowing the time. From yesterday to now, I have never thought about "What time is it?" It was the same this morning, and it is the same now.

When counting nearly a thousand steps, a round forest appeared in front of the left.Those bushes seemed to be formed by someone rounding up a few trees in the air and throwing them to the ground.However, these trees are very tall. Trees can grow like this, there should be water.It feels like an oasis.Wataru stopped, wiped the sweat off his face with the back of his hand, then walked over there, and counted from one. Water, water, cool water.I muttered in my heart to get closer, and soon, I saw the roof of a small building surrounded by the oasis trees.Whenever the wind blows the branches of the grassland, the music can be seen among the treetops.Like a tile roof.Is that kind of place inhabited?

There are still about fifty steps away from the oasis——when I came here, I could see white dust rising from the horizon.Observing intently, the sandstorm seems to be moving, from right to left.Although it was moving slowly, there was no doubt that the sandstorm might blow over here.The target may be this oasis. Run to the oasis.When approaching the tall trees, you can hear the rustling of leaves under the grassland wind. Truly an oasis.In the center of the grove is a well.By the way, this is the well, right?It's the first time to see the real thing.The edge of the well made of stone.Probe to see, the water at the bottom of the well is shining.A wooden barrel with well ropes hangs beside the well.

Pillars were set up at the four corners of the well to support the tiled roof.Probably to prevent rainwater from mixing into the well water.Oh, it's raining in the fantasy world, that's why I said that. Get water first, put your mouth on the side of the bucket, and drink it up.Sweet and cool, so refreshing.Throat did not feel "gudong" sound.Ignoring the wetness on the front of his shirt, he drank the water. After a while, I looked around and found that many tomato-like red fruits had fallen on the ground of the oasis, which seemed to be the fruits of the surrounding trees.The fruit that fell to the ground was overripe and festered.

Smell the smell of fruit, sweet and sour.Edible look. The branches grow on high places, and the trunk is slippery and has no handles, and I have never climbed the tree. After thinking about it, he quickly searched around, got several stones of suitable size, and threw the lion at the branch, and it will hit the fruit.Throwing by yourself should be fine. The plan came true.Pick up a fallen fruit, wipe off the soil, and try to eat it carefully.Sure enough, like it looks, tastes like tomatoes.However, it has a much stronger flavor and more moisture than the tomatoes sold in the supermarket.Why are the fruits in the fantasy world so delicious?This is also the case with the food eaten at the teacher's place.

That being the case, collect some to take with you on the road to quench your thirst and hunger. Gen immersed himself in collecting the fruit.He threw stones desperately. This time, a "rumbling" sound came from the wind and sand: "Hey! Hey! The people over there!" Hearing the shouting, Heng stopped his hands and looked around. A car that looked like a carriage raised dust and ran close to the oasis. The driver waved to him and shouted loudly. He came to the edge of the oasis and set up a pergola to look at the two green grasslands. Was the smoke and dust seen just now caused by the carriage?How can such a field full of weeds make such smoke and dust billow?

Hey - it seems that there is a way there.Is it the road to Gasala? What looked like a carriage approached Wataru.When it came to the front, it no longer brought up smoke and dust.Gen also saw clearly that the carriage-like thing was not a carriage. No, the four wheels of the cart look very familiar to him, and he has seen it in the opening titles of western movies, but the one pulling it is not a horse—what is the name of that animal? It is a cow, but it has a long neck, two horns on its forehead, a huge body, shiny coat, gray leather, and huge hooves as big as cushions. "Hey, people over there! Don't eat too many mulberries."

The driver tightened the reins, stopped nearby, and spoke to Gen pleasantly. "That stuff is what this guy—Daru Baba likes to eat. Although it is sweet and delicious, it is not human food. If you eat too much, it will hurt your stomach." Gen let go of his hand, and the red fruit he had just eaten fell to the ground.The driver laughed and got out of the car. "You don't need to throw away what you're eating. It's not poisonous. I know it's good. Hey, before I feed Darupaba, I'll eat him too." He was dumbfounded and trembled. He—yes, a lizard! The person driving the long-necked ox-drawn cart is a lizard man about 2 meters in length with scales all over his body.He picked a red fruit that fell on the ground, and chewed it, his sharp teeth were quite eye-catching.This is very similar to the "Lizards", the strongest tribe that appeared in the "Saga" series and was the enemy of the Zac tribe.It would be exactly the same if he had a sword in his hand. "What's the matter, little one? Did I get something glued to my face?" Lizard people are really generous.He approached Gen, and could not help but take a few steps back.The lizardman turned his head in confusion, raised his hand with sharp claws, and scratched his cheek. "What's the matter? What are you afraid of? I think you're just a little kid, here alone? Mom and Dad aren't here?" Wataru wanted to answer, but his tongue wouldn't work. "Little boy, where do you come from?" The lizard man asked kindly while chewing red fruit, "There will be no imperial refugees coming to this border... You are from the Anka tribe. This is the first time you see me like this." Is it the water people?" There was a "gurgling" sound at the throat, and a hoarse voice was finally squeezed out. "You, you, yes, yes, the water people?" "Yes, that's right." The lizardman opened his big hands, picked up the red fruits that fell around him, and began to feed the long-necked cow.The long-necked cow made a "moo" sound and wriggled its big mouth-very excited. "Then, I'm the Anka tribe?" Gen asked, pointing to the tip of his nose. "That's right. It is the first race created by the goddess, so it looks like a goddess. You learned it in school, right?" The lizardman exposed its sharp teeth.It was a smile—probably. Gen thought, it seems that the so-called "Anka tribe" is a race that looks like humans.Teacher Rao should be the same.But in this fantasy world, there are other races. "Ah, ah—this animal is..." "This guy's name is Daru Baba. What's the matter, is this the first time you've met him? You don't have to be afraid of him, he's very good. He likes people touching his ears the most." "Oh……" The long-necked cow ate the mulberry fruit contentedly, the juice dripping from the sides of its large mouth.The lizardman rubbed Daru Baba's ears for a while, pulled the clothes around his waist that looked like a leather miniskirt, and tilted his head to look at Gen. "Even Darubaba doesn't know, little guy, it seems that you are from the empire? You don't use livestock to pull carts at all. Livestock carts are a thing of the past. Because Darubaba is very novel, some foreign businessmen say that it can be used." I charged a visit fee to the exhibition, bought five heads and shipped them back, but in the end I couldn’t do business at all, and finally the ranch went bankrupt.” Heng is very concerned about the word "empire" in the lizard population who likes to talk.Could it be that there are several countries in the fantasy world? "The so-called 'empire' is different from the place I'm in now, right? What country is this called? Just mentioned 'border', right?" He was tongue-tied at this point; he couldn't believe it to himself. What language did the words come out of my own mouth?It's not Japanese, it's not English, it's not the language I'm used to speaking. However, I can express myself fluently without any effort, and it is not troublesome at all.The lizard man could hear what he said, and understood the meaning. "I... the things in my mind have changed." He couldn't help saying it out loud, muttering to himself, "I've become a person from the 'Illusion World'! It seems like I'm possessed." Daru Baba made a "uh uh" sound in his throat, and kept his mouth on the mulberry fruit, as if he hadn't eaten enough.The lizardman scratched its ears and was dazed.No, because his eyes were different from Wataru's, and they were placed on both sides of his protruding face. When facing him directly, it was impossible to accurately see his expression.The lizard man opened his mouth halfway at the moment, and glanced at his jagged teeth to make such a judgment. Waiting for an answer, his body seemed a little stiff.A long tongue suddenly popped out of the lizard's mouth, gracefully drew a circle in the air, and quickly licked the top of its head.Gen was taken aback, because it was inappropriate to be rude, so he tried his best to hide without pulling away. "I'm so surprised." The lizard man said from between his thick, sharp teeth. "You can't speak much, little guy. Could it be that you are a 'traveler'?" Gen nodded slowly. "What! Ah, so it is!" The lizardman raised his two hands covered with thick scales, and clapped their hands with a "slap".Then he rushed forward and stretched out both hands to hug Gen. "Wow! What, what's the matter?" Gen's feet were more than one meter above the ground, completely floating in the air.The lizardman picked him up easily, just like being picked up by a professional wrestler. The lizardman was overjoyed, he squinted his eyes and raised Gen high, he jumped up and down, and he was still chanting. "Oh, I'm so happy. I woke up this morning with auspicious omens; I didn't expect this place to be so good! I'm ecstatic to meet tourists; what a blessing from the gods!" Being turned left and right by the lizardman jumping and jumping, Gen made him dizzy. "Hey, hey, stop, my, my stomach is going to - pop out of my mouth." "Oh? Ouch, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." The lizard man finally put Gen on the ground, but he was still very excited. He didn't know where to put his hands, and his feet stomped loudly.He sat down on the spot and stretched his legs.Waiting for the messed up brains and stomach pouches to come back into place. "I'm really sorry." The lizardman said and squatted down.The unique tiny pupils of reptiles blinked unhurriedly. "Then, traveler, when did you come to the fantasy world? Are you also going to the goddess's tower? Or do you have other purposes?" Gen pressed his temples with both hands.Well, it's okay, it's not broken. "I just came here yesterday. I set off from the village of Master Tutor in the morning. I have been walking in the grassland. I came here to find water to quench my thirst." "Oh, that's right. That's the new passenger. No wonder I don't know anything about it." The lizard man nodded. "However, this grassland is huge, where are you going?" The Master Mentor ordered to go to Gasala Town first, and he said that if he didn't get lost, he would arrive in the afternoon. "Gazara? It's not far. But you're off the beaten track. At the speed of your child, you won't be able to reach sunset." What a pity, I think I have gone in the direction of the sun as my mentor said, where did I go wrong? The lizardman bared his teeth, "It's okay, don't worry. I'll take you to Gasala. If you take my car, you can't enter Gasala when the sun is still high. The Daru who is pulling the car today Baba, the best traveler in my family. It's called 'Dubbo'." That "Dabo" stopped mooing and dozed off when he stood there.That's right, it's much more comfortable to ride in that car.Judging from the dust raised by the car just now, the top speed is almost as fast as a car. But—why did this lizardman treat himself well? "My name is Gen." Gen reported his name and bowed his head in greeting. "Geng, my name is Kima. Many of us Shui people take this name. Therefore, if you don't call it by the middle name, it's easy to get it wrong." "Then what should it be called?" "Ki Kima," the lizard man said slowly, "when pronounced, the first 'ki' is half a step higher than the second 'ki'. Otherwise, it will become a woman's name." Mr. Kee Kimah.He tried his pronunciation and was corrected several times.From the perspective of Cheng, this pronunciation is too simple, but it cannot be corrected because of it.After twenty or so repeated attempts, Ki Kima scratched his head. "Hey, my name doesn't matter, it's not worth spending time here." "terribly sorry." "You don't mind. It was a good seventeenth time just now." Then let's go?Ki Kima stood up easily, then hesitated. Pretending to be kind enough to lure children into the car and resell them—even in the fantasy world, there may not be such bad people.Although I don't know where they will be sold, what is the use of children in the fantasy world.Generally speaking, this kind of thing is not surprising. Ki Kima waved his clawed hand: "It won't affect my work. Even if it's my master, tell him that I meet a traveler and give him a ride. He won't be angry." "Oh, oh, oh, this is my great luck!" Ki Kima waved his hands."Dongdong" stomped his feet again, "It's still unbelievable until now! When I was a child, my grandfather always said that I passed by a traveler near the town of Dajiwo, and then I bought a stake in the mine and got a mountain. For So, my father went all out to find the traveler, but found nothing. As for me, I approached the oasis just to get Dabo to drink water, and I actually met him!" That is to say, for the Shui people of Ki-Kima, in the vast fantasy world, it is a rare sign of luck to encounter a tourist who visits once every ten years. Genrangki Kimala grabbed hold of him, climbed into the Darubaba cart, squeezed, and sat down next to Ki Kimara. It was just a piece of hard wood. Compared to the prairie, this is heaven. "You got that belt around your waist and tied it to the post of the wagon." Ki Kima took the reins and gave advice to Wataru. "I'm used to it and it's fine, but if Dubbo runs away, he'll be a little wobbly." Ho hi!yelled Ki Kimar, and gave Dubbo a whip.Dabo mooed to change, stretched his neck, and sprayed hot air from both nostrils.For a moment, Wat remembered the pressure cooker her mother used to use. "Ho-ho, even Dubbo's got a lot of energy!" Half a sentence of Ki Kima's words didn't reach Gen's ears, it was missed.As soon as Dubbo started running, the hard board under his buttocks turned into a trampoline.The one who thought he had grasped it firmly, but found himself floating in the air.If there is no belt to replace the seat belt, I am afraid it will fall to the ground at once. "Hey, hey, you're ready." Ki Kima stretched out a hand, grabbed Gen's collar, and pulled her back to the seat, "Don't jump so high! Step firmly, right , Work hard on your lower abdomen!" "Just talk, talk, what's the use, ah, ah." Gen jumped left and right like a ping pong ball, almost biting his tongue when he opened his mouth, and stretched out his hand desperately trying to grab something, but he could only grab air.Not only does the body fall up and down, but the direction of the face is also from left to right, from front to back. "Speed, speed, please, please, please slow down a little." Ouch!This time, Gen jumped and landed on Ki Kima's shoulders, and he hugged Ki Kima's head, which became like riding on the neck. "Hey, hey," Ki Kima opened his mouth wide and laughed, "you can sit down if you feel comfortable, Mr. Traveler!" "Where, here, this, this, it's not good, I have to, down, come." "It's okay." "But, but, this..." Never come down.Although the skin of Shui people is exactly the same as that of lizards, it is not slippery at all, but dry and smooth, easy to catch. How many years ago was the last time I asked to ride my daddy's neck?This idea suddenly flashed in my mind.Although my father is not as strong and big as Ki Kima, he feels very solid when riding on his neck. When he twists and turns on his father's neck, his father will be very angry and say "don't make trouble, it is very heavy", but in From the young Heng's ears, Dad Huali didn't really mean "very heavy".He recognized that it would be an absolute breeze for his father to carry him. However, it may also be really "very heavy".Thinking of all this at this moment is useless, but what if it is really heavy? Since you don't have to worry about falling off, you might as well enjoy the scenery. The 360-degree endless grassland shines like a bright green disc in the sun.The thing that looks like a road from a distance is probably a road that was naturally formed when Dalu Baba drove back and forth.It is wide and narrow, winding and becoming a white line on the grassland, several of which extend to the horizon. Although it was a bit dusty, it was so refreshing to stand against the wind while the car was galloping. The air was inhaled into every corner of the lungs, and I couldn't help but want to growl. "How is it, Dabo runs fast, right?" Ki Kima also raised his chin and asked loudly over the wind. "Oh! Awesome!" "I've been feeding this guy since he was a kid. I'm going to make him the best runner in the country!" "Mr. Ki Kima, can you tell me something about the fantasy world?" "Yes, but I dropped out of school, can I really teach you?" First of all, I am afraid that how many countries are there in the fantasy world? "You mentioned the empire just now, is that another country?" "Oh, yes. I'm lucky." Ki Gemma explained that the Mirage was created by the Goddess out of the red sea of ​​chaos in the long past, when even the flow of time was uncertain. "Is the goddess the same person as the goddess of the Tower of Destiny whom our passengers are going to?" "That's right. But we don't know much about it. No one has seen her. First of all, we living in the fantasy world don't even know where the goddess is. I just heard that there is such a place as the "Tower of Destiny", and the goddess Live there." "Is it... a legend?" In Hengyan's eyes, there are still legends in this fantasy world created by mixing legends, deepening, and fantasy. It feels like a character in a novel or comic says, "This is not a novel or comic", which is weird. "What's the name of the goddess?" "I don't know. Several races headed by the Anka tribe regard it as a taboo to directly call the goddess by the name. It is not taught in schools, and scholars do not study it. However, in the ancient language of our water people, the goddess is called 'Huba da Sherpa' means 'one who is as beautiful as light'." A person as beautiful as light.In Gen's heart, what appeared was the feeling of Venus, the goddess of beauty.In short, since those who arrive at the Tower of Destiny are able to respond to their requests, she must be a kind-hearted person. "In the fantasy world, there are two continents." Ki Kema began to explain.Dubbo's speed also slowed down a lot, just trotting all the way. "That's the Northern Continent and the Southern Continent. Although the area is similar, there are many dangerous mountains in the south, and the seasonal changes are obvious. Because of the high temperature, there are many animals and plants. Nearly half of the Northern Continent seems to be closed by ice and snow for most of the year." The two continents are said to be separated by a wide sea covered by a thick, icy fog. "Being blocked by dense fog, it is impossible to know its true face, so the situation in the open sea is almost unknown. Among the boatmen, there are rumors that there are small islands between the north and south continents, but so far none of the ships that have gone out to investigate the situation have been safe. Come back. There are legends that the small island group is where the Tower of Destiny is located, and there are also opposite claims that those islands are prisons for monsters who want to rebel against the goddess." Shrinking his neck, he thought to himself, I agree that the Tower of Destiny is not there. "That is to say, there is no way to travel between the northern and southern continents?" "Where. Several routes have been discovered. As I said just now, the sailboats of the merchants traveled several routes. Oh, the so-called 'sailboat' refers to a ship that uses wind power to travel across the sea. This kind of ship You can't move at all when there's no wind. So it's extremely important to predict when the winds you need on a route will blow up in order to sail for a given number of days." It is said that those who make a career of "predicting strong winds" are called "star readers". "Read the stars, predict the direction and strength of the wind, so it's called 'star reading'. Yes, these people know not only the wind and the stars, but also all kinds of things about this world. Because they are a group of wise men, so if you have any difficulties in your journey , you might as well talk to a star reader. There will be at least one star reader in a big town, because there are good 'star-reading stations', which are easy to find." I think, I have to remember well. "Then I am now the Southern Continent, right? There is such a wide plain." "That's right!" Ki Kima regained his spirits, "The Nahato Kingdom is a member of the United States of the Southern Continent." There are four countries in the Southern Continent: Nahato, Boao, Shashaya, and Alikida, plus the Dilla Rubesi Special Autonomous Prefecture, forming a united country. Because I don’t have a notebook at hand, I remember Nahato, Boao, Shashaya, Aliquida.I have never memorized the name of a country so seriously when doing social homework. "Roughly speaking, Nahato is an agricultural and productive country, located on the vast plain in the south of the southern continent. Boao is a commercial country, so it is the opposite of Nahato, located by the sea. Shashaya people love to learn, and even star readers I have to go to Shashaya to study. Aliquida is the most industrially developed country in the Southern Continent, and it also has many mines." "What about the Special Autonomous State of Dilla Rubesi?" Ki Kima tilted her head in thought.Then answer with a question: "What god do you worship?" "Worship God? Oh..." Gen was vague.About God, I have never thought about it until now. "I don't know. Ask your mother, maybe there's an answer." "Ho ho, does only mom know? About God." Ki Kima let go of the rein with his right hand, and used his hooked fingers to pick at the top of his mouth.Ake was called by the teacher to answer questions in class, and when he couldn't answer, he always did this action.very similar. How old is Kee Kimah?Although he is quite large, he may be very young.The method of counting the age of the Shui people may be different from that of us - the Anka people. "Although people in our southern continent live together, we all believe in the goddess who rules the Tower of Destiny." When Ki Kima mentioned the "Goddess", his tone was quite serious. "Because this world was created by the goddess. This world began with the goddess. The goddess is the mother of all of us." However, it is said that Phantom World has another point of view. "There is another saying that it is not the goddess who created the world, but other gods. That god temporarily entrusted the world to the goddess." "Temporarily entrust the world to..." This world can't fit in a locker, can it? "So, there are gods greater than goddesses?" "It's not so much greater, it's actually older. Therefore, this god is called the 'Old God'." The Dilla Rubesi Special Autonomous Prefecture is said to be a community established by people who believe in the "old god" as the creator god. Compared with the country, it is actually closer to the church. "In the middle of the southern continent, there is another Andea highland. It is not a mountain, but a piece of land with a high altitude. Dilla Rubesi State is there. The residents of this state have no contact with our people at all, food and so on Also try to be self-sufficient, so how they live is not known. It is said that outsiders are not allowed to enter." "What do people who worship the old god Dilla Rubesi think of the Goddess of the Tower of Destiny?" "How do you see... For those guys, the old gods are definitely more advanced. The followers of Dilla Rubesi believe that when the world is facing a catastrophe and the end comes, the old gods will reappear and replace the goddess to manage the world , to reform society.” "For non-believers, these statements are not attractive, are they? Ke Kema, what do you think?" "Oh. I don't understand those esoteric historical issues." Ki Kima wanted to escape, "However, the old gods have known since childhood. They are gods from a long, long time ago. Therefore, on the side of the Shui people, put The old gods became 'Im da Yam Yamro.' Meaning 'ruler of Chaos.'" "'Rule of Chaos'..." Feels kind of cool. "However, since the unification of the empire three hundred years ago, here, believing in the old gods has become synonymous with asking for trouble." It is said that Kitaoji used to be the same as the Southern Continent. There were some small countries and many tribes lived together. "My grandfather said that compared with the Southern Continent, the climate there is colder, the land is barren, and there are few mines. It must be under various harsh conditions, and there are endless civil strife. In one continent, there have been endless battles and killing each other." It is said that there are also people who "read stars as a career" in the Northern Continent, but because of their efforts to fight, their knowledge was wasted and their skills in crossing the sea were poor. Therefore, although the Northern Continent is aggressive, the Southern Continent has not yet been invaded by it. "So, about a hundred years after the unification of that side, until the sailboats here can reach that side, the situation in the north is almost unknown. At that time, we just heard what happened when he was a child from grandpa." When the United States of the South and the Northern Empire concluded a trade treaty, it was stipulated that "about the history of the Northern Continent, only the situation after the empire unified the entire territory is taught." Therefore, in the schools of the Southern Continent, what children learn as "world history" is only It has a history of nearly three hundred years. "Oh, it's too much!" Gen couldn't help screaming, he even forgot that he was riding on Ki Kima's shoulders, and suddenly moved, needless to say, he jumped down, and when he was in danger, fortunately, he was caught by Ki Kima's powerful claws and hung in the air. rescued. "Hey, be careful." Ki Kima said while tugging at him, "I've finally had enough lucky passengers, if I'm crushed by a darubaba car, I won't have a bright future in my life. " There was another bush in the grassland ahead.Hey, it's half way already, let's take a rest in that oasis.Ky Keema told Dubbo to slow down. There are no wells in this oasis, and there are small springs surrounded by rocks, and clear spring water flows out.Squeeze a handful of water with your hands and put it in your mouth, it feels slightly sweet. "Hungry? Let's have lunch here." Wataru sat down by the spring, and opened the small bag given by the instructor on his lap.Ki Kima took care of Dubbo first, and then he reached under the carport in a calm manner and took out something that looked like a large laundry room. "what is that?" Gen turned his head to look, and met a pair of fierce, red eyes.This pickle also has a face. "This one, it's pickled sun-dried ambala, the whole one. It tastes so good." Ki Kima spoke impatiently, suppressing his nausea.It is difficult to deduce from the state of the pickled object and guess its original shape, but it seems that this beast called "Ambara" is similar to an ugly fox. ——The water people are also carnivorous. Won kept this point in the small notebook in his heart, and ate the bread silently.Ji Kema ate the whole salted sun-dried yambala in two or three bites, and then grabbed the fruit that grew on the tree by the spring, and recommended it to Heng while eating it. "It's called mac fruit. It's a bit sour, but it's different from mulberry fruit. It won't spoil your stomach. However, the juice can't be washed off if the clothes are sticky, so be careful when eating it." There are edible and inedible things that grow on the mountains and grasslands. You must be careful about what you eat, and remember a little bit to increase your knowledge, otherwise you will not be able to keep going. It was a blessing to meet such a nice fellow as Ki Kimah so soon after we set off.Gen thought, before breaking up, he should learn more about this aspect from him. Now, though, for the historical aspect.Gen urged Ki Kima to continue what he said just now, Ki Kima hiccupped contentedly, then quickly licked the top of his head with his long tongue, and said: "Where did you just say? That's right, that's the unification of the Northern Continent, right? The empire before unification was just a small country in the north, originally a country of the Anka tribe..." As far back as three hundred years ago, the Anka nation fought tenaciously in the civil war, conquered all countries, and successfully established a unified country. "At that time, the first emperor Gama Aglias I claimed that he was the god of creation just like the old god. The goddess who was entrusted by the old god to rule the world—the goddess we all believe in is more than me. The ancestor of the Aglias family was a lowly god who was not qualified to rule the world, but she deceived the old god and snatched the world from the Aglias family." He went on to say: "When we first met, I told you that the Ankas are the race originally created by the goddesses, so they resemble goddesses, right? Jamma Aglias I said that this is also a fabricated lie. Said that the Ankas are like old gods ——He said, because it is the old god who created the present world.” He claimed that the real appearance of the goddess was nothing like that of the Anka tribe, and she was so ugly that it was impossible to look at her. "He said that the reason why the goddess didn't say her name was because she didn't want to appear in front of living creatures. The reason why she hid in the Tower of Destiny was because if people saw her appearance, her lies would be exposed immediately." Wataru looked up at Ki Kima's sincere face while folding the cloth for wrapping the bento. "As I said at the beginning, the northern continent has been at war, and the people there are suffering from hunger and cold, and their lives are difficult," Ki Kima continued, "Gamma Aglias I said that it is so unfortunate that the war continues and the food is insufficient." , and it is all the responsibility of the goddess. Why? The goddess who cheated the world from the old gods, in order to consolidate her position, created a large number of creatures similar to her real appearance, and sprinkled them on the earth. The Anka people suffer. He said that in the end the goddess will destroy all the Anka people in the world." Ki Kima tilted his huge head and blinked his deep eyes. "I wouldn't believe these words anyway, but the Anka people in the Northern Continent—the citizens of the empire, needless to say, even the Anka people who were originally citizens of other small countries believed in Jiama Aglia These words. They clapped their hands happily and supported him, saying he was absolutely right." Although there are multiple races or races living in the North Continent, the Anka tribe was originally the largest number there. "So, when they were united and began to eliminate other races or races, they had an advantage. People in the northern continent, except the Anka, had their houses and fields taken away, killed and detained, or reduced to slaves. Sharply reduced. And just like that, a unified empire emerged." Hearing this, Heng finally understood what Ki Kima said: "Fortunately, I am a resident of the Southern Continent". "Three hundred years after the reunification, it is said that there are almost no races or races other than the Anka on the northern continent. Even if there are survivors, they will not have a normal life. It is really miserable. .” Wataru tried to go over Ki Keema's words in his head.So, when it came to the Dilla Rubesi Special Autonomous Prefecture, his meaning of "belief in the old gods means trouble" was vaguely visible. "The followers of Dilla Rubesi believe in the old gods just like the people of the Unified Empire." Gen tried to speculate, "Of course, they are also Anka, right?" Ki Kima closed her eyes and nodded. "That's right. Not only that, there is even a saying that Dilla Rubesi's first generation Pope is a direct descendant of Aglias." The true intention of the Northern Continent to unify the empire is probably to win over the disciples of Dilla Rubesi, and use them as an excuse to attack the Southern Continent.Then use the same method as the Northern Continent to unify the Southern Continent, Ki Kima said. "But until now - in the past three hundred years, the successive kings taught by Dilla Rubesi have not shown any signs of clinging to the royal family of Aglias. They live autistically in the mountains of the special self-knowledge state. We have cut off communication on the ground. We are not believers, and we have never even seen the appearance of the Pope." Therefore, there is no way to start a unified empire in the north. "The United Nations government in the south is very careful with the Dilla Rubesi Church and the Special Autonomous Prefecture. Because if they are offended, they will join hands with the North. It will be terrible. When the trade treaty was concluded, the reason for unilateral He listened carefully to what the North said, also because he didn’t want to unnecessarily stimulate those guys and give them an excuse to attack us. In this sense, Dilla Rubesi is like a bomb buried in the southern continent.” Gen nodded slightly.心想这也是现世可能会有的事情吧，在电影上见过类似的故事。虽然当时觉得很难，没有充分理解。 如果亘有机会读初中、正式地学习世界史和现代史，那就可以知道，不仅仅是“可能会有”，基·基玛所说的幻界南北问题，如果略为改变名称或过程，是现世实际发生过的事情。 “我来这里的时候……”亘说道，“被告知，幻界是现世人类想象力的能量创造的地方。所以，就发生了与现世类似的事情？” 基·基玛又抠起嘴巴上方，他问：“什么是'人类'？” 噢噢，对啦。亘笑一笑。对住在幻界的基·基玛说这样的事情，只会让他为难吧。 “啊啊，没什么没什么。非常感谢你教给我这么多东西。” “哪里。好，那就走吧？”基·基玛“嘿”地笑一下，“噢，只要是在南方，你就不用担心啦。和平年代嘛。”
