Outside Lieyang City, Tangning placed a telescope on a small rock in front of her.
This monocular was the only item he had brought from that world. It cost him nearly 500 RMB and had a field of view of 800 meters. Although it wasn't the best in that world, its modern production and advanced technology made it a rare auxiliary tool in this world. In the eyes of the people in this world, its performance could even meet the standards of a divine artifact.
Tangning even considered modifying it into a sniper telescope.
Unfortunately, this was a world that advocated swords and magic. It was a world that existed in a strange space. Some of the basic principles that were universal on Earth in the past did not work in this world at all.
For example, gunpowder. Tangning had once experimented with it using the same ratio as Earth's. However, he did not see the light of the explosion nor did he hear the sound of the first explosion. So, up until now, his monocular was only used for long-distance observation and peeping.
On the Radiant Continent, two suns hung side by side in the sky of this world. Looking from the ground, the distance between the two suns was not very close or very far. If it was on Earth, the two suns that were so close would have been attracted to each other by the universal gravity between them. They would not be hanging side by side in the sky of the Sun Plains like now.
At night, three bright moons would rise in the night sky.
The moon varied in size. With Tangning's telescope, she could barely see the craters on the moon.
The two suns that emitted infinite heat did not raise the temperature of the planet to a level where it was difficult for people to survive. Instead, it filled the air with all kinds of free energy and elements, causing gunpowder to lose its explosive power and become a stable substance.
It was a small hill and Tangning was lying prone in the bushes.
Below the hill was an endless green plain. The knee-deep weeds seemed to stretch to the end of the world. The tall red clouds and the purple star reeds that were as thin as reeds dotted the plains. From the high ground of the hill, the purple and red embellishments were as dazzling as stars.
" Roar!" A deafening roar instantly spread throughout the entire Blazing Sun Plains.
Tangning quickly brought her binoculars closer to her eyes.
About six to seven hundred meters away from the hill, a giant beast covered in black scales stood up in a purple star reeds. Its huge crocodile mouth was covered in blood.
A few dark clouds that were as thick as ink floated to the top of the giant beast's head. As if sensing that it was in danger, the giant beast stood up again.
" Roar!" A silver ripple spread out rapidly with the beast at the center. Everything that was affected by the ripple, whether it was people or objects, exploded into a faint mist at the same time.
A dozen warriors who were attacking the giant beast were unable to dodge in time and were swept by the silver wave. It was as if all the blood in their bodies was squeezed out by the silver wave. Instantly, bursts of blood mist erupted, and their bodies were turned into piles of hard stones along with the fatal silver wave.
The silver wave rippled out in a radius of more than ten meters, and the giant red cloud rime and purple star reeds in this range also exploded into a green mist like those warriors.
At the same time, the dark clouds above the giant beast's head finally gathered.
Even Tangning, who was 600 - 700 meters away, heard a loud 'swoosh' sound from the dark clouds. Immediately after, a bolt of lightning as thick as a bowl pierced through the beast's scales.
The blue electric arcs wrapped around the giant beast's body and flickered, followed by bursts of green smoke.
The green smoke dissipated, and the giant beast fell to the ground with a bang.
The surviving warriors approached the giant beast warily. They carefully flipped the giant beast's body.
The giant beast did not react, and the warriors cheered. Then, a few people in gorgeous robes walked out of their hiding place. Their faces were pale, obviously because they had consumed too much magic power in the battle just now.
That's right, they were the mages of this world. The huge lightning that killed the giant beast in one strike must have been their masterpiece.
There was a black hole as thick as a bowl on the top of the giant beast's head. Bright red blood was flowing out of this black hole. A warrior quickly placed a container under the giant beast's head and caught the blood that was flowing out.
Good stuff! Looking at the red blood, Tangning couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
If he was not mistaken, this should be an adult petrified beast king. This thing could be said to be full of treasures. After the beast skin was processed, it could be used to make armor. The beast skin without scales was also a good material for making magic scrolls.
Beast meat is a delicacy, and beast bones are also an expensive magic material. Beast blood is the " ink " used to write magic scrolls. It is very good at solidifying and solidifying a Magician's mana. Using it to make magic scrolls is a waste for spells below Level-12. This is because it is too precious. At least just now, I saw with my own eyes that in order to obtain it, more than ten warriors were turned into a pile of hard stones.
Also, the teeth and nails of the behemoths were extremely sharp and had excellent enchantment properties. With a little polishing, they could be made into powerful magic arrows.
The beast was quickly dismantled and packed up by the warriors. The beast blood and the beast skin that could be used to make magic scrolls immediately became the spoils of war for the mages. The warriors that had been petrified into stones were also carried onto the carriage by others.
Although the petrification magic would automatically disappear after a day, because the petrification magic extracted all the water in the human body, it was impossible for ordinary people to survive after being hit by the petrification magic. The purpose of these people carrying the stones to the car was probably to drag them back to be buried.
The horse that pulled the carriage was different from the horses on Earth. It was also a type of demonic beast. It had a 30 - 40 cm long horn on its head, but its limbs were very short. Therefore, this type of demonic horse was very slow. Fortunately, its load capacity was very strong. The huge Petrified Beast King could be pulled by just one demonic horse.
There were a total of five carriages in the team. Perhaps because someone had died, this team, which was called a mercenary group in this world, looked a little listless as they circled around the small hill. Many people had a stern face and did not say a word.
As the team passed by a small hill, Tangning hid in the bushes and did not dare to move.
He knew that although the Petrifying Beast King managed to petrify a dozen warriors in one go, it was only because the warriors that were petrified weren't of a high level. They were typical cannon fodders. The true experts in the team definitely wouldn't rush to the front. On the other hand, the Petrifying Beast King that was killed was a King of Petrifying Beasts. Its final attack had gathered all of the Demonic Energy of the King of Petrifying Beasts. This was the reason for the tragedy that Tangning had witnessed.
At such a close distance, as long as he made a slight movement, he would be detected by the experts in the team who had just experienced a fierce battle and were in a state of high alert.
As soon as she was discovered, Tangning, who didn't know any martial arts or magic, would definitely be captured by these bloodthirsty mercenaries. If she was lucky, she might be fooled and survive. If she was unlucky, she might even be killed on the spot.
It hadn't been long since Tangning had transmigrated to the Glorious World. It had only been around 4 years. When she first arrived, she was forced to pretend to be deaf and dumb for 3 years because of the language barrier. During these 3 years, she tried her best to suppress her desire to interact with others while carefully studying the language system of this world.
Since he couldn't communicate with others, he could only enter the Glorious World through words.
From the beginning, the signboards of the magic accessories shops, restaurants, and other shops became his target. He carefully distinguished the similarities and differences on each signboard and then carefully noted them down.
The language in this world was a tadpole language, similar to Persian. It was said to have been passed down by the God of Creation.
Slowly, after mastering some basic words and phrases, he began to try to communicate with others.
At that time, he had no identity, no status, no profound martial arts, and no special ability that made him invincible in the world. At that time, he was like a black migrant on Earth who did not have a household register or identity card. In this world where the strong were respected, he was despised and despised everywhere.
Like a newborn baby, he greedily and diligently learned everything here, including language, writing, and even some common sense. In the eyes of others, he was just a beggar who could not speak, dirty and pitiful. It was not until he learned the common language of this continent and completely integrated into this world that he disappeared from the city where he first came and came to Scorching Sun City where he lived now.
" Knowledge is power." After coming to this world, he had a deep understanding of this famous saying.
This was a world where magical beasts ran rampant. At the same time, there were many races living and reproducing under the same sky. In order to obtain a good living space, humans worked hard to learn the special magic skills of other races and developed martial arts in different fields according to their own characteristics. However, these special magic skills and martial arts had always been in the hands of a small number of people. In this strictly hierarchical society, it was impossible for civilians to learn advanced magic and martial arts.
So far, Tangning had yet to learn any magic or martial arts. Even if it was cannon fodder, he had given up because of the astronomical tuition fees.
For the past 4 years, Tangning had been struggling at the bottom of the world.
As he did not know magic or martial arts, he could not become a high-income professional mercenary. He could only work part-time in restaurants and taverns, and his income could only maintain his food and clothing. In secret, he did not give up his ideals and pursuits. He could not work in an official professional union, so he found some dye to make a few sets of camouflage clothes commonly seen on Earth, and equipped himself with some small tools such as flying claws and steel shovels. This way, his stealth ability in the wild was not much worse than some low-level thieves who had already taken up their profession. After equipping the " quasi-divine weapon " monocular telescope, his ability to detect information was even stronger than some high-level thieves.
However, he had no intention of joining those mercenary groups. Before he had great power, the monocular was not only the only one in the entire continent, but it also had irreplaceable functions. Therefore, it was easy to attract the covetous eyes of the strong. He still understood the principle of " not revealing your wealth."
Moreover, the camouflage uniform was a tool for stealth and could be easily imitated. He did not want to expose all his trump cards. After all, in this world where the strong preyed on the weak, one more trump card was equivalent to one more chance to save his life.
