The first thousand one hundred and eighty-three chapters are isolated from the world
The environment deep in the dense forest is almost primitive. There is almost nothing that can be called a "road" in the rugged forest land, and there are signs of undevelopment everywhere. This situation makes Hao Ren a little bit doubtful whether such an environment is really possible.
There will be settlements of modern humans. And Hesperius's answer confirmed Hao Ren's doubts:
"The last time I came to this place was three centuries ago. At that time, it was already a forgotten ghost place."
"Three centuries? You haven't confirmed the life and death of that attendant for three hundred years?" Vivian glanced at Hesperus in surprise, "Is he really still living here in seclusion?"
"To be honest, I'm not sure, but no demon hunters have found this hermitage in the past three centuries, so the possibility of that guy still staying here is very high," Hesperus led the way.
While saying, "Human settlements may die out, but the hermits will stay, because the dying human towns are an excellent disguise. Many old guys who survived the mythical age and live alone choose to live near various ruins.
Anjia, although life will become very inconvenient as a result, it can avoid the eyes of the demon hunter."
"What's the name of that 'squire'?" Hao Ren discovered that he still didn't know the name of the target person. The Olympian who survived from the mythical age and defeated two digits of demon hunters with his ancient artifact.
This "god clan" still doesn't even have a name.
Hesperus paused slightly: "He was once called Hercules."
Hao Ren said casually, but as soon as he took two steps forward, he suddenly realized: "Wait a minute, what's your name?!"
This time it was Lily next to her who spoke: "She said his name was Hercules, but if it's transliterated, it's also called Hercules."
"What the hell, it's him?!" Hao Ren never expected that the person who had been called "the Attendant" would be such a famous figure. "That demigod hero in ancient Greek legend? The one who challenged the Twelve Trials.
?That seems like a really awesome guy, how come he became a follower of Zeus?"
"Why can't a hybrid of Olympians and Earth humans be a servant of Zeus?" Hesperus tilted his head slightly, "Ah, he is indeed famous. Although he is a hybrid, he made quite a lot of achievements back then.
With his huge reputation, many of the 'gods' on Mount Olympus were very jealous of him. Later, he was taken to the mountain, and Zeus personally gave him his identity, and he officially became the 'gods' of Olympus.
Since there are no more 'gods' to entrust, he has been waiting for the demon hunter beside Zeus for a long time, so it is not wrong to register him as Zeus's attendant."
Seeing that Hao Ren was still a little confused, Vivian reminded him: "There are always some deviations between real history and myths and legends. But to be honest, I am also a little surprised."
"It's reasonable for a fierce man like Hercules to survive," Lily rubbed her chin and muttered, "If he were really an ordinary attendant, he might not be able to unleash much combat power with a divine weapon. In the end, it has to be psychological.
He is of excellent quality. Such a connection makes many things more reasonable. When Mount Olympus was about to collapse, he evacuated with ancient artifacts and a large amount of research materials. This was probably specially entrusted by Zeus."
Hesperus nodded slightly and mentioned another thing: "By the way, like many survivors, Hercules did not use his real name in front of ordinary people. The last pseudonym he used was 'Fair'
Nan', if he hasn't moved in all these years, maybe he is still using this name..."
Before she finished speaking, a thin voice suddenly sounded from the side: "Hi ha"
"What..." Hesperius subconsciously exclaimed. As soon as he turned his head, he saw a group of black and red energy arrows approaching rapidly in his sight, and then hit him in the face, "Wow.
!What is this?!"
The small energy arrow did not cause any damage at all. After Hesperus was startled, he saw that it was a palm-sized Vivian flying crookedly next to him, doing something to him as he flew.
Showing all kinds of undeterrent and ferocious looks, she was immediately stunned: "Vivian? Your little bat again..."
"This is different from Hessiana," Vivian was about to say why this little thing suddenly woke up. After hearing this, she quickly explained, "It was split from me!!"
Suddenly, Hesperius looked at Vivian with an even stranger look than before: "Split? Why have you developed a new function?"
At this time, the little evil mind body continued to dance and fire energy arrows at Hesperius's face, and while firing, he added a voice: "Hiss! Bang!"
Hao Ren quickly grabbed the little one back and took out a glass can bottle from his pocket and stuffed her in: "Good guy, why did you suddenly wake up when you were so dizzy just now? Uh, Hess.
Purris, this is more troublesome to explain, so can you pretend you didn’t see her? In addition, Vivian’s split is not a new function, in fact, she has always done it..."
Hesperius: "?"
After a lot of trouble, the chaos caused by the little one finally subsided. Hesperius was still confused and didn't know what happened, but she also knew that Vivian was a guy full of secrets, so she didn't ask too much in the end.
But his eyes still wandered to the can bottle in Hao Ren's hand from time to time: little Vivian was dancing angrily inside, constantly firing energy arrows at the surrounding glass walls, like a manic little devil, this scene was so fucking magical
Already...
Vivian awkwardly diverted her old friend's attention: "Ahem, we should be there soon."
"Right in front..." Hesperius raised his head and looked forward, his eyes suddenly a little strange, "Huh? It's still there?"
Through the layers of trees in front, some intermittent smoke and the spiers of wooden houses were vaguely visible. Although it was still some distance away, the appearance of a human village could already be seen.
Hao Ren was as surprised as Hesperius: "This village didn't disappear."
Vivian couldn't help but glance at the surrounding virgin forest, and a strange feeling came to her mind: "Something's not right. Look around. The forests around the villages and towns shouldn't be like this. It doesn't look like there have been any human activities here."
Things related to those ancient supernatural creatures will always seem particularly weird. It is obvious that deep in this forest, some kind of supernatural force is also subtly working. A hidden place that has been forgotten three centuries ago.
Shixiao Village still exists today, and there are no roads connecting it to the outside world around the village, which made Hao Ren couldn't help but be more vigilant.
"Unstable space readings can be detected nearby, but no traps have been found yet." The data terminal immediately reported.
After confirming the situation around the village, the group crossed the trees and entered the village that had been isolated from the world for centuries.
A clearing has been artificially cleared in the forest. The small village is surrounded by a low wooden fence that is only half a person's height. It is quite doubtful how much protection this tattered and low wooden fence can play. It seems that its
Its function is only to mark the boundaries of the village, not to ward off wild beasts in the forest. In the village, you can see quite old wooden houses scattered at random. The uneven architectural layout shows that this place has never been planned, and between the houses
The roads are paved with gravel and bricks. They are narrow, potholed, and winding. They seem to have no regard for transportation convenience, but are just to connect the houses in the village together.
Even from the perspective of three centuries ago, this was a terrible place.
Hao Ren believes that the most surprising part here is not the houses, but the villagers.
There are really villagers here, people living in this closed, ancient ghost place that smells of mold and decay everywhere. They wear rough clothes that cannot tell the age, have weather-beaten appearances and numb expressions. When they see
As soon as the stranger appeared, he gathered around curiously and pointed at Hao Ren and his party from a distance, without any courtesy.
It's really hard to believe that there is such a group of people living deep in the forest, as if they are completely separated from the outside world.
"This place looks exactly like the last time I came here three hundred years ago," Hesperius whispered in surprise, "except for this wall... there was no such thing back then."
Lily poked Hao Ren's arm: "Someone is coming towards us."
The rough villagers who were watching from a distance separated to both sides, and an old man who was slightly neatly dressed and with a smile on his face walked over with a cane. The old man was hunched over and his steps were sloppy, but he was in good spirits. He walked straight towards Hao Hao
Ren, expressed his greetings in French with a serious dialect: "Ah, guest, no visitors have come for many years. Friends from far away, please come in and have a rest. How can I help?" (~^~)
