the last gentleman

Chapter 172 Unexpected encounter



Chapter 172 Unexpected encounter
In the endless gray desert.

Gray dead eggs rolling slowly like boulders,

Due to the slow scrolling speed,

After estimating the rolling direction of the egg, Yi Chen will grab the egg, run for 100 meters quickly, and then put the egg down again. After a short orientation correction, he will pick up the egg and move another 100 meters.

Cycle like this.

During Yi Chen's cycle of picking up eggs and laying them down, a silver-haired young man followed behind him with a mobile metal crutch that is common in hospitals.

Disappointed with the old world, Lorian did not embark on a journey of exploration alone.

At the same time, he also gave up his plan to settle down in the old world.

By comparing the two worlds, Lorian still thinks that the original world is better, and this time it will be a day trip to the old world.At that time, it will be necessary to use Yi Chen's body to go back through the passage,

Therefore, he and Yi Chen formed the current deformed team with one person and one patient.

Such a team has its advantages and disadvantages. With the strength of Yuehen, it can penetrate deeper areas, and the probability of obtaining relics is greatly increased.

Once they accidentally meet another gentleman team who came to the old world, the situation will become difficult to explain, and the moon marks are likely to completely wipe out the other party, leaving no one alive.

The two of them had traveled in the desert for an unknown amount of time, and their concept of time became more and more blurred.

This time, Yi Chen didn't pick up the dead eggs on the ground, let them continue to roll, turned around and took out the hourglass from the backpack to restore his own concept of time.

"What!? It's been half a day already?"

Half of the gray sand in the hourglass has passed... Generally speaking, newcomers to the old world must consider returning immediately after half the time.

Yi Chen can only be regarded as just beginning to explore, and has not encountered anything yet.

Yuehen walked over and patted him on the back, "Don't be nervous! The clothing on your body has a lot of leather content, and it can last for more than a day... Besides, I'm still here, let's play a little more It doesn't matter.

Let your friend go back first, we will go back later as long as it is not exposed. "

Lorian's palm on Yi Chen's back released a special layer of moonlight enchantment, which made the dark coat coat with a layer of silver, and the whole person's style changed accordingly.

The depletion rate of hide content has been reduced by half.

"Thank you, I'd better keep the time within one day as much as possible. If the overtime monitor will inevitably conduct a full-body inspection on me, it is very likely that you will be found out by then."

"It doesn't matter if you find out~ I don't need to save my energy anyway, the guy who grows armor with his body is more powerful, but he hasn't reached the level where he can kill me.

Don't think too much, just focus on the exploration in front of you. If a combination like the two of us ends up empty-handed, it really can't be justified. "

During the brief communication between the two,

The dead egg has rolled far enough,
And if you observe carefully, you will find that the rolling speed has increased compared to before, and it is still growing... It is rolling into a large sand pit.

Yi Chen also noticed the speed change problem of the dead egg for the first time, and was about to speed up to catch up.

Snapped!
A pale and haggard arm suddenly stretched out from the bottom of the bunker, tightly grasping the dead egg.

Seeing this, Yi Chen immediately cut into the spear and ax posture.

Lorian's eyes also flashed a silver light, and one hand was gently placed under the right eye, ready to lift the gauze covering the eyes at any time.

Suddenly an exaggerated scene happened,

With the bunker where the withered arm was at the center, the surrounding [-]-meter-long sand suddenly became agitated, and began to sink downward in the shape of quicksand.

Yi Chen and Lorian also jumped back and evacuated immediately, out of the influence of quicksand.

Suddenly,
A mobile building that combines the three themes of [Castle], [Throne] and [Shop] breaks out of the sand.

The overall size is 10m×10m×15m by visual inspection.

Various tumor-shaped jewels, gold skulls and coins from various eras form the base,

The upper end of the base is similar to a miniature ancient castle, and the front can be fully opened, which is somewhat similar to the [sedan] in Yi Chen's country before his death.
Although the miniature castle has not been opened yet,
But through the relief pattern on the wall and the structure of the window grilles, one can imagine a treasure house full of rare treasures, and smell a kind of trading atmosphere.

Under the throne, there are many "seat-backers" whose backs are bent at 90°. Their skin and even the base are completely fused together. I don't know how many years they have been carrying this special seat.

One of the back seated people was holding the dead egg in his hand.

hum!
This group of back-seat people who seemed to be moving slowly came to Yi Chen and Yuehen in an instant, as if the moving time had been 'peeled off'.

Just when the two wanted to step back and distance themselves,
§Wait a moment§

A sound that pierced through the skull and hit the brain forced the two of them to stop the thought of retreating.Instinctively felt that if he chose to go backwards here, he might be killed directly.

Even Yuehen, who is an open source patient, has the same feeling.

§ I didn't expect to encounter such an interesting commodity "no raw eggs" on the surface. There are only rare diseased birds that perfectly combine human characteristics, and they themselves have a certain "fertility" attribute. The concept of "fertility" is temporarily carried from the outside Come in, it's possible to get goodies like this on the first lay.

It cannot be mass-produced, but can only be obtained by accident.

Will you sell it to me?Distinguished foreign guests. §

The voice just fell,

The castle unfolds horizontally from left to right, and directly turns into a shop with various rare treasures hanging on it.

A man with endless treasures and bloated fat was sitting among the treasures, under the eyelids with several layers of fat, the golden pupils were watching the two people in front of him.

Wearing stitching style clothing that combines the styles of various eras and civilizations,
Obviously, he is the owner of this particular store.

As the store unfolded, his body compressed inside also spread out, reaching a width of almost 20 meters in the horizontal direction and ten meters in the vertical direction.

When the mouth opens to speak,

Teeth made of ancient metals and rare jewels are exposed, the most prominent of which are his two golden front teeth,
One is engraved with [Du], the other is engraved with [ke], together they are [Duke].

"It's a pleasure to meet independent patients suffering from new diseases here, as well as special human beings who don't belong to the two worlds. I can trade with young people like you. It's not a loss that I spent a lot of manpower to come to the surface."

These words made Yi Chen's eyes widen, as if the shop owner in front of him could tell at a glance that he came from time travel.

Moonscar Lorian felt a kind of pathogenic suppression from the fat businessman.

"You can just call me Duke, come and make a deal with me."

The voice just fell.

Yi Chen and Yuehen played an epic and magnificent music in their ears at the same time.

A burst of elegant violin solo kicked off, bells, vocal chorus, and string slides from high to low, as if to attract all outsiders into this ancient castle.

As the music plays,
There is a distinct sense that the shop owner is deliberately showing himself off.

A golden frame gradually emerges above the head, which can be observed by the outside world.

The starting end is also a shop signboard made of gold, and various forms of gems are used to spell out the words - [Duke's House].

The frame is filled with brilliant gemstone solution, and even solid gemstones are mixed in it.

The corresponding title and name are attached to the frame.
