"I want to go back, I mean, I already miss Mercury."
My initial contact with this world was actually quite unpleasant.
Generally speaking, when you first come to a foreign land, see different scenery, and eat different food, there will often be an excitement period or even a honeymoon period.
But within the first 38 hours (a day in this world), Lu Pingping wanted to run away.
I don’t know what color the sky is, but it seems to be red. After all, the sky that is too bright actually interferes with the perception of color by the eyes, especially when Lu Ping’an needs to use other people’s eyes to pick up the color.
And the lives in this world gave Lu Ping'an a surprise. They didn't even have language. To be precise, they communicated using "light" instead of "sound waves (vibrations)".
They can really communicate with their eyes and even kill with their eyes, but as far as Lu Ping An knows, the efficiency of communication is not very high, and the distortion will be serious if it is a little further away. In actual operation, it can only be regarded as "sound waves".
A form of expression.
“Is this brand okay?”
Lu Ping'an found a small shop with chicken legs on the sign, and handed over a card with a strange color spectrum. In the eyes of the tall local ethnic group, it might be a deaf-mute person holding the piece of paper to buy food.
The other party nodded calmly. In fact, Lu Ping'an had met dozens of locals along the way, and they didn't have the second expression.
The overly standardized faces also made Lu Ping'an suspect that they were artificial masks and had no second expression at all.
Even in Lu's perception, this body is an illusion, and the real inner part is a ball of flame.
This place that looks like a human border town is just the product of these "imitators".
What makes the road safe even more uncomfortable is the local silent environment. He really didn't expect how uncomfortable it would be for humans when all communication is done with eyes, and there are obviously many "people" around, but no one is talking and there is silence.
.
This kind of passively created "deaf" environment makes people naturally depressed. Lu Ping'an's spirit has long been beyond the ordinary. In fact, people with normal local temperatures cannot survive, but he always seems to be fine.
But the psychological discomfort was not so easy to deal with. He always felt inexplicably unhappy and uncomfortable.
The strangest thing is that Lu Pingping didn't even see any earthlings along the way. Theoretically, there should be hundreds of residents there.
"This is at night. They usually appear during the day." The local clerk gave Lu Ping'an the answer.
Lu Ping'an was really pushed into a panic, so he directly used the "Psychic Prediction" of the high-level life system to communicate directly.
Although the clerk was a little surprised, he soon got used to the words in his mind. Under the control of Lu Ping'an, the mental link could easily transcend languages.
However, forcibly establishing a link also means that the mental power gap between the two parties is too large. Lu Ping'an can easily crush the other party's mental power, and even directly cause brain death.
"I, I know, don't they have nightlife?"
Lu Ping'an frowned. In Mercury 42, those "Earth Guys" are not the ones who sleep honestly at night.
The truth is not a fairy tale. In the world of explorers and professionals, due to the reality of high income and high risks, many people are typically drunk today and drunk the next. Men who are rich and have no one to care about their nightlife are quite prosperous.
Many of the gameplays are also quite outrageous.
Fortunately, the Long-hand tribe seems to be reproductively isolated from the people on Earth, so they haven't produced many mixed-race children.
Unfortunately, many branches of the murlocs do not seem to be reproductively isolated from the humans on earth, or the genetic factors of one side have strong enough characteristics to transcend races.
In short, judging from the results, although the number is not large, the emergence of half-fish people is a taboo topic that many people in the East do not want to talk about.
In fact, there are always some strange creatures in Lu Ping'an's "Beast Transformation Sculpture" that have completely transformed into orcs, and he has therefore become the patron saint in the eyes of certain ethnic groups.
"You mean a place for fun? Yes, but there are some of our special individuals over there at their base. Are you interested? Without specialization, our body temperature will be several times yours.
, I seem to be stupid. Since you can walk around as you please during the day, this shouldn’t be a problem for you. In fact, I also want to make some extra money."
As he said this, the waiter, who looked like a "macho man" no matter how he looked at it, blew a kiss to Lu Pingan. His obvious imitation was like a doll squeezing into shape, which made Lu Pingan feel funny.
He didn't feel offended. In fact, the other person's mind was basically defenseless in front of him, but I'm afraid there was no distinction between male and female.
"This damn world"
Lu Pingan drank the drink that looked like hot lava, threw down two crystal coins as money for the drink, and turned around to leave.
Walking on the streets of the small town, the heat under your feet instantly turns eggs into poached eggs and then into black ash. The air contains a meager amount of oxygen, whether it is natural or modified, and the entire environment is unfriendly.
Lu Ping'an estimated that if an ordinary human being lived in this world, he would probably need a complete set of equipment from protective clothing to respiratory masks, and it would be best to bring an air conditioner with him.
When the heat reaches a certain level, even if a mortal can endure it, he will not want to move except lying down.
"There's no way to live in Phoenix City except for fire creatures."
Lu Ping'an somewhat understood why this town was clearly prepared for humans, but most of the time there was no one at all, as if it were a ghost.
"Let's hide in the air-conditioned room"
But soon, he realized that he had misunderstood.
After finding a hotel and paying for the room, he learned that there were indeed some human travelers in the hotel, so Lu Pingping went to his room to rest.
Although he didn't do anything, he felt extremely tired. Fortunately, there was an "air conditioner" here. The temperature dropped to more than 40 degrees. Although it was still extremely hot, for Lu Ping'an, it really felt cool.
Before he could fall asleep, he suddenly heard a "buzz" sound.
Sound? There is a sound in this world? Lu Ping'an quickly opened his eyes, only to find that he seemed to be no longer in the original hotel.
To be precise, I feel like I am not in my original world.
There was no sun in the sky, and it was chilly all around.
The earth and mountains are black, and red fires light up the world, like lamps.
Suddenly, a flame walked over, literally walking. As soon as the human-shaped flame came closer, it took the initiative to speak.
This time, it was in Dongguo dialect with a clear accent.
"New here? Have you read the manual?"
That familiar tone made him feel like he was the same person.
Lu Pingan lowered his head, but what he saw was not his own body, that is, the covering of "flame". He had also transformed into a burning man?
Seeing Lu Pingan's confused face, the senior showed a somewhat helpless expression.
"Is there anyone who hasn't read the latest version of the manual? The situation has worsened again this month. Now even during the day, we may be dragged directly into the elemental energy plane."
