Chapter 101 "Sailor Moon (Tomb Raider)" (Mist
The girl with a single ponytail hugged her arms, looking a little cold and trembling.
She finally sat down on the other side of the campfire, but she deliberately opened a little distance, as if she was very distrustful of Mo Chen, a stranger, and was very vigilant.
It's just that there is only a distance of more than ten centimeters. If Mo Chen really wants to do anything, the ending will not change. It can only be said that such behavior increases her psychological security, but it actually has little meaning.
Mo Chen didn't think there was any problem because he was not trusted. He understood very well why the single-pony tail girl on the opposite side had such behavior. After all, in a strict sense, the other party had just escaped from death.
Yes, he has recognized the other party’s identity.
——Laura Crawford.
The famous action-adventure video game "Sailor Moon"...
Ahem, sorry, please forget it. It is actually the heroine or the protagonist of the Tomb Raider series, as well as related movies, comics, and novels.
He now understood what kind of ghost place the island he arrived at was. This should be the ruins of the ancient country of Xiematai in the east of the Dragon Triangle area. The legendary location has now become part of the real world.
Laura Crawford in front of her is just a newcomer who lacks experience. This is her first adventure. She has just graduated and decided to put aside the old documents and the musty library and embark on an adventure of her own.
At the previous shipwreck site, the brand new broken ship was the Perseverance she and her companions rode.
Because before they reached their destination, the expedition plan was completely disrupted by a strong storm, and the Perseverance was broken into two pieces, and the unprepared Laura was thrown directly on this primitive, barbaric island.
This is the beginning. If Mo Chen was not wrong, she had just escaped from the nest of some crazy islanders on the island and was almost dragged to live for sacrifice by those lunatics.
Therefore, it is normal for her to be so vigilant now that she does not trust strangers.
only--
Sighing silently, Mo Chen picked up the firewood and added it to the campfire, while thinking about a certain problem. That is why such a thing happened in the real world. Could it be that he had arrived in the world of "Tomb Raider"?
But the portal is not open, and I can also use the Rubik's Cube to open the portal again on this island, which is enough to explain the problem, right?
Could it be that new features have been unlocked? This has led to the use of a brand new teleportation mode?
So how can I explain the storm I encountered before? The entire ship has sunk. It is impossible for me to take the whole ship to travel with me, right?
In short, judging by the current signs and clues, Mo Chen is more willing to believe that the real world he may be in is the world of "Tomb Raider", but he has never known it before.
This is normal. Before the intersection occurs, no one knows what kind of secrets are hidden in a grand and boundless real world.
——If you have not entered the tropical rainforest in the Amazon River Basin, even if a python disaster is taking place, you will not know that you are in the modern city on the other side of the earth.
Most of the background of the world is not much different for ordinary people.
“…”
“…”
The two victims felt a little speechless between each other, only the sound of wind, rain, and thunder outside, as well as the "crackling" sound of firewood from the campfires when they burned.
It was not until several minutes later that Laura Crawford carefully looked at Mo Chen's expression, then took a deep breath, reached out to remove the radio communicator on his waist.
"Did anyone hear it? Please reply if you hear it?"
She turned on the radio communicator and quickly spoke it in English, but Mo Chen, who possessed the passive translation magic, clearly understood what she was saying.
In fact, after a few simple conversations just now, Mo Chen also entrusted the blessing of this passive skill to invite the other party to sit down here, otherwise...
How to say, his English skills can only be said to be the kind that happened to pass the Level 4 exam at the beginning, but he never used it again after passing the exam. He returned it to the English teacher in less than a year.
Specifically, it is to know simple spoken sentences such as "hello", "iamfine", and "thankyou".
In addition, at most, it was because I first watched the ghost video and I also mastered a few strange sentences, such as Lei Jun's "areyouok" and so on.
So if you don’t have this passive skill, it would be really embarrassing.
Not to mention Mo Chen's divergent thinking here, Laura Crawford pursed his lips tightly and waited nervously for the radio communicator's reply. No matter who was opposite, as long as he was a familiar person.
However--
"Sizi...sizi..."
From beginning to end, all the noises coming from the communicator are just radio wave interference, and no meaningful sound comes, making it even more impossible to form language.
The girl's pretty face was full of disappointment, and she couldn't help but show a hint of helpless fatigue and fear. However, after turning her eyes and seeing the figure of the young man next to the campfire, she quickly restrained her expression and maintained her calmness.
Laura probably cannot confirm whether the other party is trustworthy. She is worried that she will reveal her flaws, so she will give the other party an opportunity to take advantage of.
It's like you're encountering a beast in the wild. You must never show your fears, nor can you expose your weak parts such as your back to it.
The principle is the same, that is, it will never enhance the confidence of potential enemies to subdue you. It should make him or it feel that you have no weaknesses or flaws and are difficult to deal with, and then retreat if you see the difficulties.
“…”
“…”
Mo Chen didn't need to look up at all, just to know what the girl opposite was thinking and what actions she had done.
He didn't point it out, just quietly didn't say anything, waiting for the rain to stop and thinking about how he should escape this time. This island is not a simple natural dilemma, but a place where supernatural forces rage.
An ancient evil spirit who had been dead for countless years was trapped on the island. Its unwillingness and resentment created the terrifying storm that was before, which was as terrifying as it was before, and even more extreme.
The entire huge island and nearby waters are shrouded in its power. The terrible phenomenon of storms and thunder control of weather has made countless ships who have died in the past and present have only entered and not exited.
Mo Chen had already seen that horrible phenomenon and knew that he would never be able to confront him head-on. The ships of thousands of tons and modern aircraft were vulnerable. The storms and thunder covering the entire island and the surrounding waters swept across everything.
Faced with that situation, it is best not to be hit. If you are hit, Mo Chen really can't guarantee that he can still be safe and sound.
Or you can consider it and take advantage of the halo of the protagonist of the "Sailor Moon" in front of you?
Mo Chen raised his head and quickly glanced at Laura Crawford, who was sitting opposite him in a daze, and then immediately looked away from his eyes again invisibly, without being discovered by the other party.
He decided to treat this method as one of the optional methods. If there is a better method, he wouldn't mind changing the route options in the middle. Anyway, he would still have to act according to the opportunity in the end.
In this way, two strangers who had never met each other sat facing the campfire, silent, with each other's thoughts.
——There is only a silent atmosphere left in the air, spreading in the "crackling" sound of firewood burning and cracking.
Laura Crawford tried her best to keep herself awake, but she was really too tired. She felt her eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, and the campfire in front of her was getting more and more hazy. The only feeling was the warmth of the fire...
Time passed slowly, and no one spoke. All around were the sound of drizzle and the sound of whistling wind, and the dull thunder that seemed to roll over the cliff above the head.
Before she knew it, the girl felt that only her breathing was left in her ears.
...
...
I don’t know how long it has passed, but in a daze, Laura Crawford suddenly heard some strange movements.
She subconsciously raised her head from her arms and found that there was already a light outside, and it seemed that it had passed overnight without realizing it.
She immediately remembered her situation and suddenly woke up completely and lost her sleepiness.
After a brief check of her own condition, Laura began to look around and found that the campfire next to her was still not extinguished, and there was even a little more.
I was holding something like a deer leg and grilling on the fire, emitting bursts of meat.
The young man next to him looked calm, not knowing what he was tinkering with his head down. Seeing her wake up, he pointed to the deer leg:
"Let's have something to eat first, don't worry, it's fresh. There's a valley down this road, where there are a lot of prey. But there's no seasoning, and the taste may not be very good."
“…”
“…”
After a while, she showed a surprised expression in an instant, and then her cheeks turned red. She nodded vigorously and said seriously: "This...thank you."
Laura looked at the deer leg, hesitated for a while, then sat closer and reached out to pick it up.
Although I blamed myself for being too careless, I was really unbearable to resist my previous fatigue, and it was also true that she fell asleep.
However, the point is that the other party is indeed not malicious, otherwise he would be able to do anything when he was asleep and would not need to do anything on food now.
——This fact made Laura feel much more relaxed and at the same time felt relieved.
At least the other party seems not the lunatics in the cave before.
The venison is grilled just right, tender and delicious. Although there is no seasoning such as salt, it is also said that "all kinds of flavors are fragrant when hungry", so Laura doesn't think there is anything wrong with it.
Mo Chen started to extinguish the campfire and pushed the things he had just tinkered over: "Also, this is the herb I found before. I think you'd better use it to avoid wound infection..."
Of course he would not think that games are equal to reality, otherwise the physical fitness of the girl in front of him would probably be stronger than that of himself.
It even reached the level of rejuvenation and recovery of blood, unlimited battery life, and speeding regeneration. Even if it was fired by a machine gun, as long as it did not die on the spot, then it would find a place to hide for a few seconds and recover as before...
"this……"
Before Laura could say anything, she was interrupted by the radio next to her.
A man's voice came through the radio, accompanied by a "sizzling" sound-
"I am Conrad Ross, the captain of the Perseverance expedition ship, and our ship was killed on an island in the Dragon Triangle..."
“…”
“…”
Laura opened her eyes wide and immediately reacted. She quickly put down the food in her hand, reached out to pick up the radio communicator beside her: "Ross! You are still alive!"
"...Laura?!" The person on the opposite side paused, and then he asked back in an extremely surprised tone, "Relax, are you okay? What happened?"
"I...I remember a shipwreck...and then my eyes were pitch black, and then I woke up in the cave..."
Laura's breathing was much shorter, "I met a very scary person there, Rose...and many bodies."
