Chapter 9 Prophecy and the Selected

Li Yao looked into the distance and saw a large area of ​​buildings located on a plain in the mountains, with several tall multi-story buildings being the most conspicuous.

"It should be a large gathering place."

He couldn't help but speed up.

After walking for a while, Li Yao saw a figure in the fields.

It seemed like a strong man. He did not work in the fields, but led a few quadruped animals to patrol the fields.

Seeing a stranger on the road, the strong man stopped and turned to stare at Li Yao, as if he was treating Li Yao as a suspicious person...

"Wang!"

Suddenly, a four-legged animal next to the strong man screamed suddenly, and then rushed towards Li Yao!

"Stop!"

The strong man was a little unexpected and hurriedly spoke out to stop him. Although he suspected Li Yao, he did not intend to do anything.

But the four-legged animal ignored its owner, and it rushed towards Li Yao persistently.

Li Yao saw an inexplicable creature suddenly going crazy and barking at him. He was calm and did not try to escape.

He took out the fine forged long knife, faced a gentle slope, and set his posture on the edge of the road.

When the four-legged animal approached, Li Yao saw its appearance clearly, and combined with its previous screams, he realized that it was a dog.

Li Yao saw many magical species along the way, and preconceived ideas, thinking that those four-legged animals were all unique to this world.

Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a dog.

Of course, it just looks like it, and there are differences, such as having a single horn on its forehead.

"Wang——"

The unicorn rushes to the vicinity...

Just as the unicorn dog stepped onto the gentle slope, he seized the opportunity and took out the wood from the inventory, and dozens of heavy square wood fell freely in front of him.

The unicorn dog hit the "wooden wall" directly, and then it was pressed against the collapsed square wood.

Seeing the unicorn dog below struggling violently, Li Yao stepped forward and pressed the remaining square wood in the inventory together.

Looking for the gap again, he kept stabbing with a knife.

Gradually, the blood stained the soil red, and the feeling of struggle gradually weakened.

Li Yao jumped off the pile of wood and began to recycle it one by one.

"Is this the doom today?"

Put away the last square tree, and there was only a corpse that was not in a dog shape left on the ground.

I took out my daily task notes and saw that the task had been refreshed. This is indeed today's bad luck.

"It's really an accident."

It turned out that a dog came to attack him. What would happen if he chose not to come to this village?

No... Li Yao will definitely come here, so the bad luck did not trigger immediately, but was waiting.

"Good guys, they can predict the future or explore their destiny. They are so powerful that they can cultivate players' hardcore yarn?"

Li Yao inferred a little from it, and then fell into a deeper unknown. There must be information he didn't know but was crucial, and that was the root cause of all this.

"...Oh, it's a pity, it's a good dog." The strong man walked over, looked at the dog corpse on the ground, and spoke after a long time of silence.

"I am passively defending, so I shouldn't have to lose money, right?" Li Yao said in a bad genre.

"It is usually easy to be excited, but it is harmless. I don't know what happened this time... Forget it, it's not your fault."

The strong man is still kind.

"My name is Weixi, I am the guardian of Yingyu Village... You should not be a local, right? What happened to the pile of wood just now?" Weixi looked at the dry blood on Li Yao's abdomen and frowned.

Li Yao was also looking at the guard in front of him wearing thick leather armor and a long sheathed sword around his waist. This was the first time he had seen a professional with his own eyes.



【Shadow of Shadow Fish Village, Level 3】



"Yes, I came from another place." Li Yao responded, but did not explain the inventory for the time being.

"Your accent... should be very out of it, at least not from Qingbi Hill." Weixi regarded Li Yao's somewhat crappy common words as a foreign accent because he was not familiar with him.

This is actually normal, because both Hescar and the Qingkong Continent are too big. Even if they are common terms, there are many differences between places.

"...Wait! You are not an outsider! Are you the chosen one? I just saw you take out a pile of wood out of thin air and turn them out of thin air... There is no energy fluctuation, this is not the space spell of the mages."

Weixi seemed to suddenly remember something. He changed his mind and said something that surprised Li Yao.

"Oh? Do you know the chosen one?"

Li Yao will not be surprised to be asked about the wood that appears out of thin air, but anybody knows that he is a special player... This surprised Li Yao very much.

"The story about the chosen ones I heard when I was a child was a widely circulated prophecy. The prophecy said that after ten cycles, the chosen ones from another world will come to Hescar."

Weissi's eyes were a little surprised and puzzled. He didn't know if it was because the prophecy had really come true, and he was a little unbelievable.

"Special professional, the storage space you carry with you..." Weixi murmured in a low voice.

When Li Yao heard Weixi's whisper, he thought. Is he really clear about the existence and ability of the "player"? Any guard knows it?

"Ten cycles... Prophecy from one hundred and twenty years ago? So long ago, people in this world knew that players would come and this happened!"

There is a description of "cycle" in Li Yao's memory:

The seasons in this world do not refer to the cycle of reincarnation in a year such as spring, summer, autumn and winter, but to the six seasons of origin - mild season - tide season - turbulence season - riot season - sleeping season.

Each season lasts two years, and six seasons go through a cycle once and for a total of twelve years.

"Be honest after entering the village."

Recovering from the surprise, Weixi looked strange, but she just said this without any pain.

Turning his head, Weissi began to deal with the dog corpses on the ground.

“…”

After a moment of silence, Li Yao left without turning around. Seeing that this man was easy to talk to, he planned to inquire about the news first.

"What is the specific content of the prophecy? It should be more than the chosen ones coming to this part, right? Can you disclose it in detail?"

Weixi's body, which had just bent down, stood up again, seemed a little hesitant, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was no big deal.

"What else can prophecy be? Hescar's doomsday." Weiss spread her hands and didn't seem to care about the illusory doomsday prophecy.

Seeing that Weixi was only halfway through her words, Li Yao opened his mouth to ask, but was interrupted by Weixi.

"The prophecy only talks about the end of the world and the chosen one, and does not mention the specific relationship between the two. Okay, don't ask anymore. I'm not a knowledgeable mage, I only know so much."

Vishi frowned, looking a little unhappy.

"… Can you ask, today and yesterday, strangers entered the village? I need to stay away from other selected people."

Weixi didn't want to say much, and Li Yao stopped this topic tactfully and instead asked the question that he was really anxious at the moment.

"No, there have been no suspicious outsiders staying in the village these two days. You can rest assured that our village guards are responsible for this."

After saying that, Weixi looked down at the dog corpse on the ground again. This was an impatient attitude and no longer wanted to be asked by Li Yao.

"Thank you, Brother Weixi... These are just for inquiry fees." Li Yao took out a handful of about ten copper coins and handed them to Weixi.

"Oh? You guy is sensible." Weixi was stunned when she saw that it was Eternal Coins, and finally opened her mouth. Without being polite, she accepted the copper coins.

"Goodbye then." Li Yao turned and left.

Unexpectedly, after only a few steps, Weixi pretended to be impatient and shouted behind him: "If other selected people enter the village, I will notify you."

"Thank you."
