Great time travel

Chapter 1, Lord Levy of Rhode Island

China, Northeast, Heilongjiang Province, Harbin

In a dim and narrow messy room, many dirty clothes, plastic bags, empty bowls of instant noodles and fast food boxes were thrown in a mess, making the room always filled with an unpleasant sour smell.In addition, there are also a few lingering smoke smells mixed in, like a doghouse with mixed flavors.

The large animation posters on the wall, as well as the figures and models scattered everywhere, give the place an otaku atmosphere.

Next to the most eye-catching computer desk in the room, the flickering fluorescence of the [-]-inch LCD screen illuminated a pale and haggard face.

A tall and thin figure, with hair disheveled like a bird's nest, was sitting in front of the computer concentrating on tapping the keyboard.The slightly yellow hair and the slightly western face all showed the foreign origin of this young man.

However, for this university graduate named Levi, his half-Russian ancestry does not seem to bring him any benefit in job hunting-it has been a year since he graduated from university, poor Levi The classmates are still unemployed and can only stay at home and eat their money.

What's worse, for Li Wei, whose parents are both dead and living alone, after spending the last bit of inheritance and student loans, he may not even have the money to eat now. So, after eating instant noodles for four days in a row, Li Wei, who was feeling extremely uncomfortable in his stomach, finally discarded the last bit of morality and posted an embarrassing job-seeking post on the Internet.

After typing the last word, Li Wei looked around his 3-square-meter dog kennel wistfully, and then looked at the clock in the corner of the computer screen... Well, it's already [-] minutes!He hurriedly turned around, and lifted the paper cover of Master Kong's beef bowl noodles, a familiar pungent and spicy aroma rushed to his face, which made Li Wei frowned, and his stomach was overwhelmed for a while.

Hey, even though I've eaten instant noodles until I feel like throwing up, it's better than drinking plain water and eating bread!
Touching the only few coins in his pocket, Li Wei sighed, and reluctantly gave up his expectation of ordering takeaway from the small restaurant downstairs.

——Since graduating from university, his life journey seems to have been unsatisfactory: looking for a job is blocked everywhere, writing online articles is not interested, and doing a Taobao shop is suffering miserably; working as a dishwasher in a small restaurant is a bit lame I don't want to lose face, so I'm almost at the end of my rope now!
If it doesn't work, should I go to the construction site to move bricks tomorrow?Li Wei was thinking wildly while eating the instant noodles.

Then, when he turned his head to look at the screen, he found that in just a few minutes, there was already a reply under his job application post
Although this reply is a bit strange - "Do you want to understand the meaning of life? Want to really... live? YES/NO"

Eh?What does it mean?Li Wei blinked in confusion, but still clicked the mouse on YES.

The next moment, the impoverished and unemployed otaku Li Wei felt his eyes go dark, and disappeared from his doghouse in an instant.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

The choking smoke, the rude noise, the woman's charming smile, the pungent smell of bad wine

What is this place?How did I get here again?

Li Wei rubbed his drowsy head, raised his head from the table in confusion, and found himself in a tavern.

It looks like a medieval European-style tavern, with thatched roofs, log beams and columns, but unlike the "fairytale taverns" in movies or Disneyland, the air here is filled with smoke and alcohol. The smell and sweat stink, and the furniture and utensils are all dirty and dilapidated. For example, the wine glasses and plates on the table in front of him are actually made of wood and look very bumpy.The ground is also dirty mud, and there are even dogs scurrying around, vying for the bones and crumbs left by the drinkers.

Looking around again, Li Wei noticed that the tavern was very lively - it was not a very spacious space, and there were at least a hundred people crowded in it. These people had typical western faces and were dressed in shabby and dirty clothes. He was dressed in coarse cloth, holding foamy dark beer in his hand, singing loudly while eating and drinking bad wine and food.A troubadour dressed like a clown was vigorously playing the flute by the bar, arousing applause from time to time.There are also a few women with slutty looks and scantily clad clothes who shuttle among them, smiling and putting the palms of every guest who is willing to pay on their chests... just like what is often seen in Hollywood pirate movies.

What surprised Li Wei was that these people clearly did not speak Chinese, but he could understand what they were saying!What made him feel even more strange was that although the people in the tavern were right next to him, close at hand, they seemed to be separated by such a barrier that seemed real and unreal. When their voices reached his ears, they seemed a little It's a bit dull, as if there is an invisible "wall" in the middle...

Li Wei reached out curiously to touch the outside, and found that there was indeed an invisible barrier separating them from the people outside.

What surprised Li Wei even more was that when he raised his arm, he suddenly found that he had changed into a chain mail at some point!

It wasn't until this time that Li Wei, who was unresponsive, noticed that besides himself, there were nine other people sitting on this table, including men and women, all of whom had typical East Asian appearance and wore locks with medieval charm. Armor—the kind of "fishing net armor" made of many small iron rings connected together—or scale armor, hunting clothes and robes, carrying cold weapons such as long swords, battle axes or maces.Six of them sat awake all the time, but just looked at themselves silently, as if they were watching a play, while the other three were lying on the table, still unconscious.

However, just when Li Wei was about to ask them, the three remaining people also regained their sobriety one by one.

"...What the hell kind of place is this!? Uh? Could it be that a movie is being made?" A young man with a red-dyed hedgehog head and a crossbow on his back raised his head in a daze, and after looking around, he asked. Howling like hell.

"...Don't make noise, I don't know what this place is. Even if the Hongxing gang wanted to torment me, they wouldn't make it so exaggerated!"

The other bald-headed man, who also just woke up, first looked contemptuously at the hedgehog head, then at the surrounding environment, as well as at the woman who was still lying on the table, and couldn't help turning his eyes to the few people on the table. He was an awake person, with an expression of vigilance and precaution, but his mouth was unusually polite, "...Excuse me, gentlemen and ladies, who can tell me what's going on?"

"...Okay, don't pretend to be asleep for the rest of the lady. There is something important to announce now!"

A certain scar-faced knight who had been sitting at the table quietly watching what happened suddenly clapped his hands and said with a smile.At the end, the girl who was left wearing a long dress of a medieval lady had to raise her head in embarrassment when she heard the sound, as if she wanted to explain something.

But before she could speak, she was interrupted by the leader of the scar-faced knight.

"...First of all, welcome to the infinite space full of killing and death, and say goodbye to the peaceful life! Rookies! The 'Lord God' should have already entered a piece of information into your memory, you just need to think about it carefully I can recall..."

He first pretended to be fierce, and looked around the crowd with a smirk. He was satisfied to see the fearful expressions on the faces of these rookies. Then he briefly introduced the situation of Infinite Space, and then changed the topic, "... …Secondly, I would like to congratulate you. Although unfortunately you fell into this cruel Colosseum, the first story you entered was the long-lasting historical time and space-the Hundred Years War between England and France!
Although in this time and space, we will start a team battle with another team to kill each other, but our opponent team will not come until a full three years later, when the Battle of Crecy is about to start, and at the same time In the battle, decide the outcome with us.

So, even if you are so desperate that you can't even survive the first plot, you should be able to live for several years-as long as you are not so unlucky that you are killed by the local natives!Be content!Noobs!Many veterans who have experienced more than a dozen dramas may not live as long as you! "

——Although it sounds like comforting words, in such an unbelievable and weird environment, combined with the sinister tone of the veteran knight with the scar face, it made several newcomers who have not yet accepted the facts feel a little bit of a panic for a while. Feeling even more scared.

Only Li Wei, who had been impacted by various otaku cultures for a long time, was the first to calm down, and raised a hand to ask:
"...That... Since we have traveled to the era of the Hundred Years' War between Britain and France, which side of the camp should we stand on? Also, which year did we travel to the Hundred Years' War era? And this place Where is it again? As outsiders who suddenly came to this time and space, has the Lord God arranged for us some identity? Or is it completely up to us to find a way to make it up?"

"...These questions are well asked, which shows that you have thought about your situation carefully, rookie!" The scar-faced knight raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Wei with admiration, "...it is 1342 A.D. In the winter of [-], this is a tavern in the port of Marseilles, France. So we are obviously standing in the French camp! As for the identities set by the Lord God... a little complicated, have you ever heard of the Crusades?"

"...I probably know a little bit, I usually play "Medieval Total War"." Li Wei smiled honestly, "...But...in the era of the Hundred Years War between Britain and France, didn't the Crusades end long ago? Those Crusader kingdoms should have been destroyed too!"

"...cough cough, you are right, but not all right." Another middle-aged man wearing a black robe and setting his identity as a scholar coughed dryly and said, "...in this era, The Crusaders have indeed lost the last stronghold of Palestine, Acre City, and completely withdrew from the land of the Asian continent, but they still occupy many islands in the Eastern Mediterranean, and from time to time cross the sea to attack the Arab and Turkish soldiers on the mainland *, I feel somewhat similar to the Jiang Gong who "leaved Taiwan and counterattacked the mainland". The identity set by the Lord God is the descendants of the Crusaders who came from Rhodes Island to support France under the order of the Knights of the Hospital ——The main force of the Crusaders has always been the French, so they are naturally close to France..."

"... Rhodes Island? I seem to have heard of it in a very old Japanese light novel. Does this place really exist?"

The only female rookie interjected, and Li Wei, who was also an otaku, nodded in agreement.

"... Hey, hey! Don't confuse the fantasy island in "The Rhodes Island War" with the real Rhodes Island in the Eastern Mediterranean! Rookie!" The scar-faced knight knocked on the table with some displeasure. At the same time, dipped in wine and drew a rough map of the Eastern Mediterranean and Rhodes Island on the table, "... that place is now the station of the Knights Hospitaller, and it is also the last stronghold of the Crusaders in Asia in history. And we, those in armor They are all knights of Rhodes Island, and the men without armor are servants or mercenaries. As for the identities of the ladies, they are French noble ladies returning home..."

As he said this, he patted the scales on his body, "...hehe, don't underestimate this armor! In this era of backward productivity, it is almost a symbol of nobility! Every one of us who wears armor, You can be called a lord in this world!"

In an instant, Li Wei, who was wearing chain mail, felt two envious and jealous eyes cast on him by the bald man and the red-haired hedgehog.

Uh... So, according to the medieval appellation, I seem to be Lord Levi of Rhodes Island? !Li Wei thought with a wry smile.

"...Then, according to the setting of the Lord God, we have a stronghold provided by the Knights of the Hospital in Marseilles, and we will all find it together later. Okay, finally introduce myself. My name is..."

Before the scar-faced knight who looked like the captain finished speaking, he suddenly heard a "boo" in his ear, as if a balloon had been punctured.

At the same time, everyone only felt a slight shake in the space they were in, and then the world in their eyes suddenly became clear. Not only that, even the noise of the tavern they heard in their ears completely lost all barriers—— —Everyone can start to act!

"...Let's get here first! It's time for us to leave, Captain!" The black-robed scholar patted the scarred knight's shoulder and said, then looked up at the four rookies and said meaningfully "...No matter what you are thinking in your heart, but since fate has bound us together, in the next few years, I hope that we can all get along well, you freshly baked mercenaries, miss, and Your lord!"
