Monarch of Evernight

After a few days of voyage in the void, the unchanged stars finally changed and the distant implicit landscape appeared.

On this unprecedented long-distance voyage, only a thousand nights have truly come to know the horrors of the void. There seems to be nothing empty in the void, and from time to time there are force storms, almost without signs. If caught in the heart of a storm, without a specially reinforced floating boat, it could even be torn apart by the storm.

There are also tiny meteorites floating in the void, some as fast as artillery shells, leaving a crater on the deck once hit.

Finally, the greatest threat in the void is not piracy, but the void beast. Occasionally, if you accidentally break into the lair of a beast, you will die nine lifetimes. But the red pipe did have some real talent, and the route chosen, though curved, did not encounter a void beast, and arrived safely and safely in a neutral place.

The land of neutrality sounds like a continent, but it is actually made up of thousands of large and small land blocks, the largest of which are similar to the landslides that fought for thousands of nights.

It's a long way from the rest of the continent, as if it were an abandoned corner of the world. Countless sizes of land blocks operate in extremely complex trajectories and revolve around the sun. It has been speculated that the land of neutrality is not naturally formed, but that the prototype of the land of neutrality was formed by the fragmentation of a planet or continent in the earlier days before the fallout of the Dotted Valley Star. However, this presumption can only be speculative and unsubstantiated.

Due to its great distance from all levels of the continent in the central area, the climate is intense and the cold and hot changes are dramatic, with natural disaster storms sweeping by from time to time. Many of the land blocks do not survive grass, are not suitable for human survival at all, and even the most resilient spider demons cannot survive.

Due to its remoteness and difficulty in surviving, there has been no interest in it for millennia, either in the Empire or forever. But for those who can't fit in the two camps, this is the only kingdom. At the outset, it was the strongest who arrived alive, and the strongest were often the most vicious. After a long time, this place became a mix of dragons, all for the sake of surviving neutrality.

Because of the storm and the complex trajectory of the land blocks, navigating between the various land blocks is quite dangerous. Only an old qualified captain can travel between the land blocks with years of experience. The red pipe happens to be one of them. He chose a medium-sized land block, one of the largest ports in the entire neutral zone and the preferred transit point for beginners. It is, of course, a transit point for people.

The old floating boat slowly docked on the pier, and a group of able-bodied, dressed people came and surrounded the floating boat's cabin door group.

The red pipe appeared at the hatch door, waving his hand, yelling: “Go away, there's no cargo this time, just a few people are enough. ”

After listening to him, the people on the pier suddenly broke apart, and those who were hiding behind them were able to come forward. These are old people and children, and occasionally a few middle-aged people, who are also skinny and look sick.

Thousands of nights and night-time eyes have little luggage, and the only box is filled with frozen animal meat. But the old man's "master" brought a whole five big boxes, all heavy. Three boxes were tied together for a thousand nights, and they were brought up by themselves, and the rest were ordered to be moved by four or five people.

After walking past the long pier, the red pipe took the thousand nights into a three-story brick house on the pier. This is the most magnificent building on the whole pier, and the hall, originally spacious but full of people, the hustle and bustle, and the smell of sweat and body, come to the fore, making the night frown unbearable. The night eyes next to it had a foresight, blocking their perceptions ahead of time.

Captain Big Beard took the lead and walked to the counter at the end of the hall. If someone stops you, just whip it over, or kick it up. When the battered person saw the dark red pipe in the captain's mouth, most of them hid honestly and could not even speak more. Only a fierce man with a scar stared at the captain.

The red pipe sneered, pointing fingers at the scarred man, and made a throat-cutting motion. The surrounding people immediately shouted well, but the scar man looked a little ugly.

“What does that mean?” Thousand nights asked a man beside him.

The man glanced at the thousand nights and looked at him with disdain: "Are you new here? You'll find out after a while. This is an invitation to a duel, fight if you don't like it, life and death will come from heaven. If you don't want to fight, get out of the way. Don't fucking talk! ”

Suddenly, the rule of the supremacy of the naked strong was not concealed in neutral places.

Scar Man still dared not confront the red pipe and turned away. There was a loud and disappointing sigh around.

As soon as the scar man walked away, the people in the lobby automatically gave way. Countless lights fell on such people as Thousands of Nights, and Taoists did not like it.

Successfully came to the counter, the red pipe threw a gold coin on the counter and said, "Register these friends. ”

Behind the counter was a young man with a clean appearance, marvelously putting away the gold coins, picking up the paper and pencil, asking for thousands of nights, night eyes and the names of the elderly. Thousands of nights and night-time eyes reported a name, while the elderly reported Choi Yuanhai. Thousands of nights were a little surprised, and I didn't expect him to give his real name.

The old man seemed to know the thoughts of a thousand nights, smiled and said: “I am old, I can no longer run. When I get here, I don't want to go anywhere else. ”

The young man took out three iron and steel brands, engraved three names on them, and threw them at a thousand nights, saying: "This is your identification and proof of access to a neutral place. Of course, it doesn't do much good beyond this. If you don't want to identify yourselves, you can rob a few pieces. Nobody cares. In this damn place, as long as you have something, it's yours. ”

He pulled out another piece of copper and put it on the counter and said, "If you want to live here, you have to earn it yourself. This is a ticket to the East Desert, where you can get a room and barely plug you and your things. If you want better, you have to pay more. There is a shortage of people on the East Desert side, so there are good conditions that you can get a piece of land if you want to go. If you don't want to be small, you can have a few extra, but this could kill you very quickly. ”

Thousands of nights knew nothing about the land of neutrality, but for him it was the same everywhere. So he reached out to get the copper plate, but the young man smiled and fastened the copper plate under his palm without letting go.

Thousands of nights thought about it, some understood, and asked, "How much do you need? ”

The young man smiled brightly, "Smart! I like talking to smart people. Fifty gold coins, and this ticket is yours. ”

In neutral places, multiple currencies circulate simultaneously, Imperial Gold and Silver Coins, Black Crystals, Everlasting Gold and Silver Coins, Blood Crystals, Rubik's Cubes, all universal. Thousands of nights he took out a purse, held it in his hand, handed it over and said, "Forty-seven, that's all. ”

The young man grabbed the purse and stuffed the copper in his hand for a thousand nights, eyebrowing and laughing. “That's enough, that's enough! ”

Thousands of nights I know I paid too much, but when I first arrived, it was inevitable that I would lose something, so I didn't care. Ask where the floating boat docked and walk with everyone to the pier at night. The red pipe leaned against the counter and did not move. He sent Thousand Nights here even if the deal was done.

When the thousand nights leave the lobby, the smile on the young man's face disappears. A middle-aged man next to him walks over and looks in the direction of the thousand nights disappearing and says, "Do you need to send a guy of level eight to that place? ”

The young man looked at the red pipe and said, "Didn't you say he was hiding his strength? How much is hidden? ”

The red pipe did not answer the question, took a deep breath of two pipes and said: “This question is not important. Wouldn't it be nice if he hid enough just to get some trouble over there? The Wolf King is not that easy to deal with. ”

The young man revealed a city of disproportionate age and said, "You are still so insidious. Maybe we'll reconsider working with you next time. ”

The red pipe pointed to the purse and said, "You made a lot of money this time, didn't you? ”

The young man packed his purse and slowly said, "But all of a sudden, I think it's a little hot. ”

At the other end of the dock, I finally found my boat. This is a more ancient looking floating boat, with many steam pipes exposed and two giant chimneys rolling with smoke. Huge steam engines barely fit into the hull, leaving room for people to imagine how much remains.

Even at night, you can't see such an ancient floating boat.

Bronze tickets were handed in for a thousand nights and allowed aboard. The cabin in the boat was unintentionally small, and a few people could only stand after putting down a few boxes. It doesn't matter if Junior sleeps in any position, even if it hangs upside down. So she jumped straight to the roof of the hatch, hung it up, and fell asleep. The old man sat on the box and sat on the deck for a thousand nights and nights, preparing to spend his journey there.

Soon after the departure time, the floating boat roared, struggling to leave the pier and sail far away.

Even the cruise between the land blocks took two days to reach its destination. This is an extraordinarily huge piece of land, and the Neutral Zone is also a marginal area. Looking out of the void, a thousand nights estimate it should be about the same size as a landslide, or even bigger.

On the journey, Thousand Nights wanted to ask something about the East Desert, but I didn't expect from the captain to the crew, such as Snake Scorpion, to say nothing more words, even if Thousand Nights handed over the last two gold coins, they were jammed back.

Nevertheless, some basic information was asked about the thousand nights, most of the eastern wasteland being occupied by the Great Lakes, with only about a quarter of the land and the rest being water. The lake is so huge, it spans thousands of kilometres, it can be called the ocean, so the East Desert is also called the East Sea.

The ancient floating boat gradually approached the land mass and stood at the bow of the boat at night and night, staring at the mysterious and hidden land. Night's eyes suddenly exhaled lightly, leaning against the shoulders of a thousand nights.

“What's the matter? ”

Night's eyes looked at the immense land mass that was getting closer and deeper into the sea and said, "I suddenly felt that our home should be here. ”

Holding her tight for a thousand nights, she said, "Okay, this is our home! ”
