The so-called "observation facility" is a cylindrical building symmetrically arranged around four rectangular radiating corridors, and the overall shape resembles an old-fashioned rocket about to be launched—a style that Campbellians are fond of.The observation facility is used for scientific research, and the Campbellians send strange things they find on their vast space exploration journey to such a comprehensive research center, and the Templar Orb and the four dervishes clearly qualify as "strange things".Hao Ren and his party got out of the car in front of a corridor in the observation facility, and found that there were far more guards than in other places, many little green men with loaded guns (presumably guns) standing guard at the entrance of the facility, and a large number of small rotating metal towers could be seen on the ground around the facility: the latter should be some kind of sentry cannon or some other form of guard device.The Governor of the planet Talam personally acted as a guide throughout the whole process: "......
We've doubled our police presence since those four weird guys moved in.Those four men have always wanted to run out, and while they are no match for high-tech equipment, they have a lot of strange abilities, and we have to send more guards to be on the safe side. ”The guards of the observation facility had been ordered, and they were not surprised by the personal visit of the Planet's Commander, but quickly completed the authentication and access procedures.Hao Ren walked into the strangely shaped building under the guidance of Talam, and he looked at the little green men running around along the way: "You have been locking them up for months?
”"Strictly speaking, it's not 'incarceration,'" Tarram shook his huge head, and the green of his skin became darker, indicating that he was serious about the word, "they are not criminals, just a little ......
Unstable, and we can't guarantee that these four people are important figures or explorers in other civilizations, so we don't want to be too strict.We let them wander around the eco-park behind the observation facility when we could, in exchange for a little bit of their approval – otherwise, we wouldn't even have had a chance to decipher their language, and they didn't even speak a word to us for the first two months. ”"The ascetics are a very stubborn bunch.And there are quite a few taboos," Betsy muttered to Hao Ren in a whisper, "especially since they were teleported out of the church with the Templar Orb, and probably they would see this as a 'test' from the Goddess."
And the Campbellians ......
It must have been regarded as a demon. ”In Hao Ren's opinion, the ascetic was the most difficult creature in the world to deal with, and even if he hadn't met in person, he could guess that it would definitely be difficult to get along with each other, so until now he was still thinking about how to communicate with those four people.At this time, when he heard Betsy speak, he couldn't help but ask, "How do you think we can get those four ascetics to trust us?"
”Betsy thought for a moment.Nodding vigorously: "Find a way to have something to do with religion - if you are bold and broad-minded, it will be better if you can directly involve the goddess." ”Hao Ren nodded in understanding, and kept up with Tharam's pace again.They had already heard that the four dervishes were "venting" in the ecological garden in the backyard at this time, so they went directly through the main body of the building to the back half of the observation facility.This enclosed ecological garden is isolated from the outside world with a solid glass wall and a grid of light beams, and through a transparent barrier, Hao Ren can see a lot of tall broad-leaved plants with lilac and blue-green opposite, forming an alien garden with a unique atmosphere.Taram stretched out his hand and pointed to the figure between the two broadleaf plants, "The four of them are."
Now it's them......
Well, the time of 'contemplation', they call this process of sitting still and motionless 'contemplation'. ”Hao Ren poked his head and looked inside, and saw four people in gray robes sitting on the ground in the ecological garden, one of them in the middle.The other three were guarded in a zigzag shape outside.The gray robes on their bodies were worn out, but their figures were not as thin and shriveled as the ascetics in Hao Ren's impression.Three of the four took off their hoods, and Hao Ren was surprised to find that there were women among the dervishes: two gray-robed men with long hair were clearly women from the side of their faces and their faint figures.At this time, the four dervishes also broke away from the temporary meditation, they raised their heads and talked softly to each other, Hao Ren saw this and led Betsy and the others towards the entrance of the ecological park, and waved his hand to Tarlam: "Leave the rest to us, you wait outside." ”Taram breathed a sigh of relief as he stepped away, and although there was no expression on his big green face, it was obviously much lighter, which was a reflection of his relaxed mood.To be honest, the four ascetics have been with him for a few months, and the pressure on everyone has been quite high, mainly because of their eccentric personalities and various taboos.The little greens, accustomed to running amok about everything, were quite confused, and in the past few months, three of the guards on guard had applied for a leave of absence—Campbells were not afraid of death, but they were really afraid of these moody (in their opinion) ascetics.Thanks to the high quality of the Campbells and their long-term vision, it is not easy for these little green men to endure until now......
The rustle of feet on fallen leaves suddenly came from the entrance of the ecological park.The four dervishes immediately stopped talking, and they jumped up nimbly to turn to the source of the sound, all with unusually serious and wary faces on their faces.However, the look of vigilance quickly turned to shock.Instead of the green creatures with strange weapons and "plotting" against the orb, there was a group of living humans like them - werewolves and vampires were also human in their eyes, and the fish hanging from Hao Ren's arm could not be studied for a while."
Goddess mercy!"
An ascetic exclaimed exaggeratedly, and he quickly clasped his hands to his chest.Looking fixedly in Hao Ren's direction, "Human!
Humans just like us!
Is it reinforcements sent by the goddess or compatriots who are also caught by those green creatures?
Where are you from?
”"Pick you up and leave here," Hao Ren had expected the other party's reaction to be more exaggerated, he waved his hand to relax the four gray-robed people in front of him, "Sit down first, sit down first, I know your situation, I know where you came from and how you came."
Let me introduce myself first, my name is Hao Ren......
"My name is Becky!"
”The mercenary girl immediately followed and shouted, "It's a mercenary from the Kingdom of Halletta!"
Northerner!
”The eyes of the four gray-robed people lit up again when they heard the words "Holletta", just now they were only surprised to see humans with the same appearance as themselves, but now they can really be sure that these humans in front of them are "their own people".The younger of the two female ascetics looked at Hao Ren and said in a slightly hoarse voice, "Do you know how we got here?
”"You were teleported here from the chapel," Hao Ren remembered Betsy's confession, and dragged the topic to the mysterious atmosphere of the church, "there should have been a flash of light that swept you and part of the chapel over.You should not be able to sense the power of the Goddess here, for this place is far away from your homeland, even beyond your comprehension, and the Radiant Cult has never set foot in this place. ”"Do you really know ......"
The dervish who spoke first nodded, the person in front of him could tell these details, which was enough for him to generate an extra layer of trust, "Friend, you are also the messenger of the goddess?"
Why don't you wear the robes of the church?
”Hao Ren waved his hand: "I'm not a priest......
No, I'm a clergyman, but I'm not like you......
No, I'm a contract clergyman......
Forget it, I don't understand, anyway, I'm not from the Radiance Sect, but I can help you now. ”The dervish didn't react much when he heard Hao Ren say that he was not a member of the church, he just nodded lightly: "Then do you know what the hell is going on?"
Why were we sent to this place?
”"Actually, you're no longer in your own world......
Hao Ren sighed, and then, with Betsy's assistance, told each other about the situation in the dream plane and the surface world.He did think at first to frighten the dervishes with some frightening information, but then he thought about it......
Damn, is there anything more frightening than the dream plane itself?
Sure enough, there was no need to add much oil and vinegar, Hao Renguang startled the four ascetics as soon as he explained the two concepts of the dream plane and the surface world, and then explained the problem of traveling through the world, and the four on the other side were already so frightened that they couldn't speak.The female monk with a hoarse voice glared at Hao Ren, "You said we passed through a portal and came to another world?!"
How far is it from the land under the protection of the goddess?
”"The distance is indescribable," Hao Ren spread his hand, "the moat of the two worlds, this is a concept that only God can measure. ”"And who are you?"
The bearded ascetic who had never spoken seemed to react to something, and he looked at Hao Ren steadily, "You are not a servant of the goddess, and I don't even think you are a child of the goddess now—but you are obviously on our side, who are you?"
”Hao Ren spread his hands: "Traffic police!"
