Dominate the Treacherous Realm

　　 Jenkins didn't touch the carton directly, but touched it twice with the magic sword, and found that the sword could not penetrate into it. It's not that the carton is strong, but it can't be touched at all. The carton is avoiding danger.

　　 "Interesting."

　　 tried again with the spiral sword, probably because the flame on the sword was more dangerous. This time the sword was stretched over, the cardboard box was deformed like plasticine, so that the spiral sword couldn't touch it.

　　 So Jenkins bent over and picked up the box. The box also wanted to avoid Jenkins, but Jenkins glared at it and dared not deform it. He picked up the box and threw it directly out of the boat. The tentacles just came out of the water again, but the box still escaped the tentacles puncture in a deformed manner.

　　 Then the box fell into the water, and I don't know if I can continue to escape the bottom of the water.

　　 Jenkins did not continue to pay attention, but walked back to the female sailor.

　　 "I have driven three suspicious guys out of this ship."

　　 Although the third man was not killed, he did leave the ship.

　　 "Okay, you did a great job. As agreed, you can get one additional permission from me, and there are two more pieces of information. This is the permission."

　　 She didn’t play any thoughts, she untied the red rope tied to her left wrist and handed it to Jenkins:

　　 "Tie the rope anywhere on the guardrail and it will work."

　　 Jenkins nodded without asking more.

　　" Then you can choose two pieces of information—

　　You can know the destination of this ship; you can know the specific craftsmanship of building this ship; you can know the dangers you will face after leaving the ship's range; you can know part of the information about the "unspeakable things". "

　　Although it is also two out of four, the information that the sailor can provide is much better than the two people just now. This is probably because of identity. But Jenkins is still not satisfied:

　　 "May I know from you, how long will it take to reach the destination?"

　　 The female sailor shook her head.

　　 "May I know from you, which of the asylum seekers on the deck has the highest inquiry value?"

　　 The female sailor still shook her head.

　　 Jenkins felt a little regretful, and then chose to know the destination of the ship and "information about the indescribable." The craftsmanship of the boat is not very helpful for breaking the treacherous realm. It is more like a reward that can be brought out of the treacherous realm. The danger encountered when leaving the ship’s range is not useful for Jenkins. In fact, this one can also be selected Unfortunately, he only had two chances, and after weighing it up, he gave up.

"The destination of the ship is the last refuge. After the disaster, people and other races living in this world have not thought of a solution, but everything else has been destroyed, and now there is only the only refuge left. The destination is here. At the end of the river, in order to express their resistance to the disaster, the builders built it as a tree, and in order to shield the interference, the material was [mental blocking metal], so the refuge was named-[Steel World Tree]."

　　 "It turned out to be the world tree."

　　 Jenkins sighed, finally knowing the savior emblem corresponding to this treacherous realm. If the guess is not wrong, only [Unknown Road Ahead] is left on the ninth layer, which represents destiny, and also represents the beginning and end. I have to say that the difference engine is really painstaking.

　　 But he still didn't believe that the difference opportunity appeared on the eighth floor.

　　 "Then what about the monster's information?"

　　 he asked again.

　　 "It is not a flesh and blood creature. Its essence is completely different from ours. Its wisdom and power are beyond our imagination..."

　　 After speaking here, he paused intentionally. The fat woman raised her eyes to look at Jenkins, as if she had written "Be careful of the following sentence" on her face:

　　 "In addition to its own power, it also has a group of helpers."

　　 "Helper? Isn't it the dependents it transformed?"

　　 "No, that is a completely different force from it. They are loyal to it and help him transform the world."

　　 Jenkins thought for a while before nodding. There is definitely no difference engine in the original state of the treacherous world, so the "disaster" in this treacherous story should be someone else, but after the power of the difference engine penetrates, it becomes a disaster led by the difference engine between the two. .

　　 Therefore, if you want to submit the background of the disaster, you must mention what the “disaster” that originally existed here is. This is probably part of the trap of the differential engine. If Jenkins immediately went to the metal head to submit information after guessing it, then of course this time the Deception would have failed.

　　 "But is this the only trap?"

　　Even though each of the first seven treacherous realms has something wrong, the degree of wrongness in the eighth has far exceeded those. Out of prudent considerations, Jenkins still remains suspicious of the truth. And after learning two pieces of news from the sailor, because of that authority, he can find another person to obtain the information, and this will also be the last person he can ask in this treacherous realm.

　　 There was no prompt or any help. Jenkins didn't even use the "tool cat" on his shoulder to sniff, but decided to do it by himself this time.

　　 He tied the red rope to the deck guardrail beside him, and then took out a [Profane Seed] from his pocket, intending to try it by divination. Although Miss Audrey tried for nearly a year and did not allow Jenkins to become a master of divination, it is undeniable that Jenkins is not completely without divination talent. He has the ability to contact fate, but divination is not smooth. .

　　 After the world tree is nurtured, the world becomes clearer in Jenkins' eyes. If he wants to, it is not impossible to directly use the present state to touch fate.

　　 So Jenkins wants to try to find clues in his own way, because he feels that this must be the most correct choice at the moment. And even if the divination is useless, he has no other way. In the end it is just random selection.

　　 took out a pen and drew a black dot on the front of the coin, and then the coin was tossed away, but it was not too high, and it did not exceed the height of the ship’s shelter.

　　 "If it is the front, then look for the target in the direction of the black dot. If it is the back, then I will turn around and look in the direction of the black dot."

　　 Jenkins blinked his eyes as he tossed the coin. Although there was only a short period of less than one second, he did see the world formed by colored lines again.

　　 sighed slowly, pulled away the wagging tail of the chocolate, and let go of his palm.

　　 rotated one hundred and eighty degrees on the spot, and after going around a pile of canvases that had been eaten by insects, he stopped in front of an old man who was missing a leg. He looks sturdy and has gray hair, but he can find a few black ones. The upper body was dressed in a sailor shirt that was washed white, and the lower body was ordinary black loose trousers.

Chapter 2183 The Ship About to Dock

　　 Although the one-legged old man is holding a pipe, there is obviously nothing in the pipe.

　　 Seeing Jenkins coming, the old man who was originally leaning on the rotten wooden box with his shoulders leaning on the side slowly sat upright.

　　 "I want to know something."

　　 Jenkins said as he put the coin away, the old man raised his head and glanced at him blankly, then stretched out his hand to take the pipe out of his mouth and spit out a puff of cigarette:

　　 "Do two things for me."

　　 "Where did the smoke come from? Well, it doesn't matter, what do I need to do?"

　　 So far, there is no abnormality in this person, he looks very ordinary. As for the cigarette, Jenkins is not sure, but it seems to be the ability of an old man, this is not an ordinary person.

"Two very simple things, the first one, stay here until the boat docks. The second one, after the boat stops, take me to the shelter. You see, I lost a leg, how many When repelling the sea monster a few hours ago, he lost his crutches again."

　　 Jenkins frowned:

　　 "Sorry, I'm in a hurry, can I change the terms?"

　　 "In a hurry? It's okay."

　　 The old man said with a smile, which is very strange, because so far, no one on the deck has laughed like this:

　　 "You will arrive at your destination in five minutes. This will not waste your time. If you are bored, you can go fishing."

"five minutes?"

　　 This is information that Jenkins wants to know, but has never been able to know, but it is so plainly obtained, and this is still the truth.

　　 He immediately turned around and looked at the bow, but the fog in the direction of the ship was very thick, and nothing could be seen in front of him.

　　 "Yes, in five minutes, the ship has sailed for so long, sacrificed so many people, and finally reached the destination successfully. Since you are also on the ship, why not follow us to witness the destination?"

　　 "Sorry, I can't go to the destination, I just want to know what is going on in this world."

　　 I'm not sure about the other party's purpose for the time being, so I'll be more polite.

　　 "But when you reach your destination, you will know the truth of this world."

　　 The old man looked up at his face and said.

　　 "What do you mean?"

　　 "Literally, young man, don't go too fast. Sometimes you can only see more by slowing down."

　　 He put the pipe in his mouth again and took a sip. After removing the pipe, he spit out another sip without forgetting to explain:

　　 "I'm quitting smoking recently, after all, tobacco is hard to find."

　　 The old man is obviously persuading Jenkins to stay and wait for the boat to stop, but Jenkins is not sure which party the other party belongs to. Fortunately, he has a certain way:

　　 "Then, can I ask a question? It has nothing to do with the world, so you can answer whatever you want. I want to know, do you know many things?"

　　 "Yes, of course, so my intelligence is very valuable. I dare say that I am the person on this ship who knows the most things. Of course, that head is not a human being."

　　 "Since you know so much, to be honest, do you think I should leave the ship now?"

　　 "Leave? No, you don't know enough."

　　 The old man said meaningfully, these are the truth.

"okay then."

　　 He thought for a while before nodding, after all, Jenkins is not the only one who is good at playing word games:

　　 "The bow looks like trying to slow me down, and you are trying to slow me down. Is that the same intention?"

　　 He hasn't forgotten that the bow of the ship was like a lie to him.

"I want you to slow down because it’s better for you. As for the bow like... it must ensure that you can stay until the ship reaches its destination, because it does not want to perish. This ship was deliberately Let it go, otherwise how could there be so many survivors..."

　　 "Go on, you're breaking the rules."

　　The head of the person who hadn't spoken for a long time finally spoke, so the old man could only shrug his shoulders:

　　 "Look, this involves the background of this world, so I can't say it. But in my opinion, you should agree to my two conditions."

　　 Jenkins glanced at him, then nodded silently. But instead of going fishing, he picked up his backpack and checked what he might use, all in a location he knew.

　　 Chocolate probably also understood that Jenkins was preparing for the war, so he didn't bother him. The cat yawned and turned to look at the front of the boat. The thick fog couldn't hide the chocolate eyes. It could see what was waiting for them.

　　Although there are still five minutes to reach the destination, but after only two minutes of driving, Jenkins came to the front and a dark shadow appeared, and it became bigger and bigger. By the time he reached the shore for two minutes, he was fully able to distinguish that the shadow behind the fog was a giant tree.

The size of the 　　 tree is not inferior to the giant tree in the middle of the evergreen forest. The canopy of the tree spreads in all directions like an umbrella cover. Just by seeing this vague shadow, you can know how huge the tree is.

　　 The metal human head on the chair, when Jenkins looked at the tree in the mist, reminded:

　　 "Are you really not planning to leave now?"

　　 "I don't know the content of the disaster yet, and it's impossible to leave."

　　 He didn't know what he was doing with the difference engine.

　　 "I guess, there is no one on the deck, who can provide me with complete information about the disaster, right? The difference engine is forcing me to stay on the ship's shore."

　　 Jenkins said again.

"No, savior, you guessed it wrong this time. The rules of the deception cannot be changed, and it is impossible to pass through the deception. There is indeed someone on board who can tell you the last piece of the puzzle, but you haven't found it. That's it."

"Oh?"

　　 Jenkins turned and looked at it:

　　 "Isn't it you?"

"Of course not, I'm not considered an asylum. In fact, it doesn't matter to tell you that the person is still hidden in the crowd, and he doesn't know what he knows. You not only need to complete the task he has given you, but you also need to awaken his memory. To enable hidden information options."

"very funny."

　　 Jenkins commented.

"Of course, there are ways to awaken memories, and I can tell you now. First, you need to wake up the bow image, and then you have to go fishing and find at least five different fishes in the river to sacrifice to the bow image. Then, in In the garbage dump on the deck, we found 13 brass parts and spliced ​​them into a memory extractor invented by our master. The splicing method of the machine is hidden in a space under a certain deck. Blue gems obtained by sacrifice , Used as the energy source of the extractor, and then find the "priest" professional hidden in the crowd, and learn the spell to turn on the machine, so that you can get what you want to know."

　　 There are less than two minutes left. Even if Jenkins knows now, it is impossible to do so many things.

Chapter 2184: Refuge and Disaster

　　 "These conditions are too difficult, even if you know it in advance, you may not be able to complete it."

　　 Jenkins shook his head regretfully, not worried about the status quo.

　　 "But the passing conditions of the treacherous world are so complicated, have you modified the rules again?"

"No. These conditions are indeed a bit too difficult, so you can also rely on the clues after the ship docks to find the answer. After all, just like you said, there is no unpassable situation in the treacherous world. The environment itself is divided into two parts: before docking and after docking. You are too impatient. Obtaining all the clues before the ship docks is equivalent to seeing the door of departure after only half of the journey, so the conditions are harsh. ."

"Before docking, although time is tight and we must always pay attention to disperse the dense fog, it is relatively difficult to obtain information and need to complete complex conditions; after docking, it is very easy to obtain information, but it has to face more dangers. I guess, this is the original intention of this treacherous realm, right?"

　　 Jenkins said.

"Yes, it is worthy of the savior Williams who can come to the eighth tower. You are right. The time before landing is only half an hour. Under normal circumstances, it is not enough to maintain the light and prevent danger. At the same time, complete the task of three people. So, in fact, it is not a bad thing to keep it until the ship docks."

　　 In front of the ship, the edge of the island where the huge tree is located, has appeared.

　　 The islands appearing in the river channel are usually called "hexin islands", which are generally formed by the accumulation of sediments, but a small part are formed because of the special topography.

　　 But the gradually clear island is obviously not within the normal range. It covers an area far exceeding the area that the river can hold, but it is indeed in the middle of the river like a reef, and it does not block the river.

　　There must be some spatial specificity around the island, making the island that the river can't accommodate is like a rock protruding from the water, looking very natural.

　　Considering the background story of this treacherous world, the island and the steel world tree are probably designed and built by the extraordinary abilities of this world. Since it is used as a refuge in a catastrophe, it should be unique.
