Chapter 128 Mr. Qin

Tang Zijun is feeling very uncomfortable now.

Very very uncomfortable.

The faint sound of panting echoed throughout the space, and the blade of the knight's sword was still dripping with the black blood of the monsters.

The battle just now made Tang Zijun feel like he was back in the past. The mucus of the strange beasts covered his armor all over his body. The sticky feeling made him, who was a germaphobe, almost vomit.

I thought the attack of the owl monster was over, but I didn't expect that this was just the beginning. In this special space, all kinds of unexpected monsters suddenly appeared.

The idiom "every tree and grass looks like an enemy" was perfectly proved at this moment. Tang Zijun always felt that there were countless enemies lurking in the thick fog.

He had just gotten rid of the owl monster with the help of Langya, but before he could catch his breath, a giant salamander attacked him from underwater and almost dragged him into the underground river.

After spending a lot of effort, he finally dragged himself out of the water. Unexpectedly, the shore had inexplicably turned into a forest, and there was a giant python waiting for him.

I was curious about the location of these monsters from the other world before, but now I can just kill them and have fun.

If it weren't for the fact that these monsters couldn't drop gold coins, Tang Zijun would have really thought that he was in some large-scale dungeon, and a single-player dungeon at that, without support.

The broken fragments of the spider's front legs hung on Tang Zijun's shoulder armor, swaying as he moved forward.

The mask of the helmet was not spared either. The sticky black gelatinous substance slid down the mask, adding a bit of ferocity to him.

With every step he took, he could hear the sound of mucus rubbing against his body. Tang Zijun came to Chang Lei with a grim face and was about to complain when he suddenly noticed the little man in his hand.

"Who is this?"

"I'll introduce it to you after you come over." Chang Lei placed the elf in his palm. He knew that she had no intention of running away.

Even if she had, she couldn't escape with the Wolf Riders present.

The elf was already scared silly at this time. Looking at the existence in front of her that looked like an ancient ferocious beast, she was trembling with fear and could not say a word.

It's no wonder that she was so scared. The main reason was that Tang Zijun's current state was quite visually impactful. Even Tang Zijun didn't dare to imagine his current state (he was afraid that he would vomit).

But unlike the elf, Tang Zijun was looking at herself in Chang Lei's hands with curiosity.

This little creature is only about five or six centimeters tall, and looks no bigger than a pointed-headed grasshopper. She looks pretty pretty, and belongs to a human-like species. The only difference is the dragonfly-like wings behind her and the two antennae on her forehead.

These two tentacles are not long, black, like hair, with oval tips and emitting a faint green glow.

If it were an insect, then the antennae would most likely be used for communication, courtship, etc., but this is a new species, and Tang Zijun is not sure what this organ is used for.

But judging from the thick fog driven away by the fluorescent light, these two tentacles seemed to be the means by which the other party could enter and exit freely without being affected by space.

Just then, the little guy spoke.

"Just now, those spiders were all killed by you, by you."

"You can speak Chinese?" Tang Zijun was a little surprised. He thought that these fantasy creatures would have their own language.

"The creatures in the secret realm are closely connected to those in the real world, so it's not surprising that they can speak human language," Chang Lei explained. "But this little creature doesn't strictly speak 'human language'. Her language is influenced by those two tentacles, transforming it into something you can understand."

"Oh." Tang Zijun nodded. Now he knew the effect of the tentacles on the other party's head.

After a pause, he continued, "If you're talking about the giant spiders that just charged at me, then I did kill them, though a few got away. By the way, my name is Wolf Rider. What's yours?"

The elf hesitated for a moment before answering playfully, "My name is Hyacinth."

"Hyacinth?" Tang Zijun turned to look at Chang Lei. "It sounds like the name of a flower."

"It sounds similar to me. It might be the naming method of their race." Chang Lei shrugged.

Tang Zijun waved his hand. "Let's not talk about this anymore. This isn't the place to talk. Let's get out of this chaotic space and figure out another solution. We don't want to get separated again."

At this time, the boundary between the secret realm and the real world has become blurred, and countless strange beasts are lurking in the chaotic space. Although Tang Zijun can ensure his own safety, his goal this time is not simply to kill monsters.

Hearing this, Chang Lei had no objection.

"This pot of water is finally used."

He had wanted to leave a long time ago. If he hadn't been afraid that Tang Zijun wouldn't be able to find him, he would have returned to the real world just now.

After making the decision, the two of them moved quickly. Before the elf could react, she followed the two people in front of her and disappeared on the spot.

In Qin Nan's rented room in Chang'an City, a flash of light appeared, and Tang Zijun's figure emerged first. He had already deactivated his transformation and was no longer covered in the disgusting slime. Tang Zijun felt completely relaxed.

Chang Lei followed behind holding the elf. He didn't have any special reaction. For him, it didn't matter where he went. The elf, on the other hand, was a little nervous, with fear in the corners of his eyes.

"Qin Nan is in charge of teaching Tang Cao. She's currently living in Xuecheng. Don't be shy and just treat this place as your own. The rent is almost due, and I'm trying to convince her to move somewhere else."

Qin Nan's rental house is very tidy because she has no personal belongings at all. The furniture here is basically left by the landlord.

Unlike most young people, Qin Nan is the type of person who changes a batch of clothes every year. She never buys expensive clothes. She only buys clothes made of materials that cost only a few dozen yuan. She wears them for a year and then throws them away without feeling bad.

Tang Zijun casually opened the ice box and took out two bottles of Coke. He threw one to Chang Lei and opened the other and took a swig.

There is nothing more refreshing than drinking a bottle of happy water after a fierce battle. Besides, he has a good physique, so he won’t get a stomachache even if he drinks it cold.

Chang Lei took the Coke, thought about it, opened it and took a sip, then put the elf on the table. "Do you want to drink it? I'll find you a bottle cap."

The elf was still confused. After hearing Chang Lei's words, he glanced at the bubbling black liquid again, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly. "Thank you, but no thanks."

Pulling a chair and sitting down, Tang Zijun set his sights on the elf.

"Let's talk, Hyacinth. Who are you? Why are those outsider demons targeting you?"

The elf did not answer Tang Zijun's words immediately. She just observed the surrounding scene nervously.

"I'm out? I, I'm really out?"

"If your goal is to come down to reality from the secret realm, then yes, once you come out, this is the real world," said Tang Zijun.

As if she really felt that Tang Zijun had no ill intentions, the elf's frightened look gradually turned into curiosity. She stared at Bingshuang for a long time, and then her gaze fell on the chandelier on the ceiling.

It seems that the creatures in these secret realms have been isolated from the world for too long, and they don’t even know that humans have developed to this point.

Perhaps in the eyes of these supernatural beings, humans are still inferior creatures who fight with fire sticks.

"You are safe now, Miss Hyacinth. I know you are curious about some things in reality, but before that, I hope you can tell us what happened first."

The elf withdrew his gaze. "Okay, okay."

"Tell me about it," Tang Zijun said. "Who are you, how did those outsider demons find you, and why did they wage war against your world?"

The elf sighed softly, considered his words, and then spoke slowly.

"We were originally spirit insects born from the Tree of Life, its companions. Over time, my race gradually developed intelligence and evolved into human forms. Humans call us flower fairies and wood elves, and we once taught humans the art of growing flowers."

"That should have happened in ancient times." Chang Lei interjected.

Hearing this, Hyacinth nodded. "It was indeed a long time ago. A war broke out afterwards. To protect the safety of the Tree of Life, my people paid a huge price and hid our world, refusing to be disturbed by anyone."

"But you were still found by the Outer Path Demon."

Hyacinth shuddered. "Those evil ones, those dark creatures, they corrupted the leylines, sowed death around the barrier, and tainted the Tree of Life."

"This is the usual practice of the inner world. They lack much wisdom, and corruption and cannibalism are the best methods for them." Chang Lei stroked his chin. "The diary must have revealed the location of the secret realm, but the Outer Path Demon couldn't find the entrance, so they resorted to this method."

When Tang Zijun heard this, he nodded thoughtfully while drinking Coke.

Judging from the secret realm where these flower fairies live, if they do not take the initiative to open the door, it is impossible for creatures from the outside world to enter that world.

The heretic demons failed to find a way to open the barrier, so they chose another way, which was to pollute the secret realm's anchor point in the real world and then corrupt the secret realm in turn.

The secret realm may exist in another dimension, but its roots are still connected to the real world, and this gives the outsiders an opportunity to take advantage of it.

Hyacinthus was a little curious. "Diary, what diary?"

"This." Tang Zijun took out the diary from his arms and placed it in front of Hyacinthus.

This diary is too big for Hyacinth. If used as a bed, ten of her can sleep on it.

The first time Hyacinth saw the diary, her expression was stunned.

After a moment of silence, she couldn't help but get up.

"Mr. Qin!?"
