Chapter 290 The Strange Western Chapter Fragments
Jin continued to say as he flipped through the scrolls:
"As you know, the "New World Chronicle East" that Dong left us is a fragment, with many chapters missing, blurred, and damaged..."
"The two chapters of "Ancient Labyrinth" and "Gray and White Wilderness" are relatively complete, and the rest of the chapters are really incoherent."
"This is our regret, and it is also the regret of mankind."
Everyone knew that Jin was right.
For example, among the "Five Great Disasters", there are many missing and omitted contents in "Mist-like Creatures", "Hell Bell Twin-tailed Snakes", and "Human-Educating Beasts".
Even when V5 later sent special forces in, they could not get much effective information in the end, and many of the dangerous creatures were big question marks.
This is because it is a question whether they can survive there, not to mention whether they have the time and energy to investigate these "disasters".
Maybe some of them did this, but on the way back, these members either died, or their investigation data was lost on the way, or both happened at the same time, and there was no way to solve this problem.
Jin paused, and handed the stack of papers in his hand to Germain solemnly.
"So, there must be a lot of content in the "Eastern Chapter Fragments" that was originally recorded but lost due to the passage of two or three hundred years."
"Dong's friendship with the Moose Centaurs is one of them... maybe there are more, after all, there are so many sub-races in the Dark Continent."
Jin's words make sense. Germain and others have seen many sub-races in their many trips to the Dark Continent, but they rarely come into contact with them.
Dong has been in the Dark Continent for two or three hundred years, so he naturally has come into contact with many sub-races. This is a reasonable guess.
Germain took the paper, took a look at it, frowned, and asked, "Do you think this is the "Eastern Chapter Fragments"? "
"No, it's not." Jin's eyes shone brightly, "This is too far from the overall style of the "Eastern Chapter Fragments". It is not the "Eastern Chapter Fragments". "
German looked up and met Jin's eyes. He understood everything from the other's eyes.
"German, do you understand? I think... this is the "Western Chapter Fragments"... I think we found a few "Western Chapter Fragments"! "
Everyone was shocked when they heard Jin's words, and then they all came over.
Bisiji was much shorter than German, and he didn't want to show his "Vajra True Body" in public, so he simply raised his hand and snatched the scrolls from German.
She and the others just took a look and felt dizzy.
I saw that the pages were all covered with some tiny words, and some of them could be vaguely recognized as the Six Continents characters, but the strokes were extremely strange, horizontal and vertical, and intertwined.
It felt like Dong was drunk when he wrote these pages, and he was drunk.
If the first few pages could still be seen as writing, the later pages were so sloppy that they looked like a few random strokes.
Abstract, really too abstract.
On the last page, Dong completely gave up writing and started drawing a picture.
The picture was completely occupied by a swollen, plump, terrifying monster, and countless tentacle-like strokes almost jumped out of the paper and grabbed everyone.
What on earth is this?
Everyone was horrified and disgusted by it, and even felt a little like vomiting in the depths of their throats.
Indeed, as Jin said, the content on these papers was completely inconsistent with the overall style of "Dong Pian Fragments".
No, it should be said that it was as if a completely different person was writing.
Eerie and weird were their overall tone.
Biscuit pursed her lips and held the stack of papers, but her eyes moved away, unwilling to continue reading.
This was not the psychological resistance shown by the poor students when facing difficult problems in advanced mathematics, but a double disgust of physical and psychological.
It was like unless you have a special fetish, you will definitely not like feces.
Germain reached out and took them all.
He flipped through them for a while, and looked at the last one carefully, his eyes somewhat deep.
Afterwards, German returned all the papers to Jin.
Jin held them in his hands, as if he had found a treasure: "Scela told me that Dong had passed through their tribe again about a year ago."
"The Moose Horsemen welcome Dong's arrival, because he always brings something new and exchanges with them."
"It's just that Dong comes less and less often, and the time interval is getting longer and longer, so Dong's arrival makes the Moose Horsemen very happy."
At this time, Scela spoke and took over.
"Yes. When I was a child, Dong visited us many times, and we got to know each other. Later, when I grew up and became a soldier, I rarely saw him again."
"More than a year ago, he came, wrapped in a robe, with only his face, hands and feet exposed. He seemed to be very afraid of the cold and strangers."
"He became different from before, not so friendly, and unwilling to have too much contact with us."
"I don't understand. We are obviously very familiar with each other. Why would he be like this? He only stayed for one night and then left in a hurry."
"I went to his residence, but he was gone. This was the first time he didn't say goodbye to us. I was very surprised."
"Afterwards, I saw these by his bed. I felt uncomfortable, but they were Dong's, so I stayed and stayed with him."
Scela used human language as concisely as possible to describe the last time he met Dong.
This aggravated the doubts and uneasiness in everyone's hearts, because the whole thing revealed all kinds of weirdness.
"I know what you are worried about." Jin held up the stack of papers, "I can feel that there is a kind of mind on it, and I don't think it is evil."
Jin left Xiaojie a cubic Luban lock-like device, which contains clues to guide Xiaojie to Greed Island.
The mind he left on that device has never faded.
The same is true for the stack of papers left by Dong in front of him.
"If you want to know whether this is the "Western Chapter Fragments" and want to know what Dong's strange behavior is about, deciphering them is the best way. ”
"The puzzle and the answer are on the same stack of papers. We are getting closer and closer to the truth. Aren't you excited? "
Except for Germain, everyone else was somewhat uninterested.
Germain only said: "It may be very difficult to decipher it, because it may not be regular... But anyway, there is progress."
Jin smiled: "Yes, we have made progress."
At this time, Scela next to him interrupted again.
"I am very interested in you." Scela pointed at himself, then at everyone, and then pointed at the surroundings, "It's incredible."
The four moose men behind him also nodded repeatedly.
"The ancient maze is very scary and a forbidden place." Scela continued, "Only Dong is not afraid and will bring back healing herbs. He is very powerful."
Hearing "healing herbs", everyone except Jin was slightly stunned.
"You are also very powerful." Sisaila knocked his upper chest with his fist, "This place has become your territory, very powerful."
"Those parasites are very scary. Some of my people want to prove themselves, so they will break into the forbidden area. After that, there will be no news of them."
"You are all real warriors. I like you."
The four moose men behind Sisaila also shouted: "I like you."
The picture of five tall moose men shouting "I like you" looks a bit strange.
But in fact, it is the most direct and sincere expression of emotion between Sisaila and his people.
Everyone can't help but be infected by this emotion and let down some of their guard.
Jin said frankly at this time: "To be honest, I brought them here, in addition to recognizing them as friends, I also had other ideas."
"Dong's way of communicating with them through bartering inspired me."
"We can actually follow Dong's example and trade with moose people and other races."
"You should all understand, right? We can never fight alone in the Dark Continent. This is one of the reasons for the defeat of those human troops in the past."
"They rushed straight to the ancient maze without caring about the rest, and then they were equivalent to cutting themselves off from the entire Dark Continent, losing more possibilities."
"If humans really want to gain a foothold in the Dark Continent, if we really want to continue living here, we must communicate with other races."
"How about it? Let's continue the friendship started by Dong?"
