Another World's Palm Spider

After entering the border of the Orac Empire from the country of steel located on the west side of the continent—Bairlandin, the first stop on the road is the outpost of McGowan.

This outpost stands on the edge of the western plains of the Orac Empire. Unlike the mountain city of Agra, which uses the mountains of the Nachilis Mountains to form a natural barrier for the empire, on the endless western plains, the outpost of McGowan The outpost is obviously a very big target. Once there is friction between the Orac Empire and Beyer Landing, there will inevitably be conflicts between the border guards, and these conflicts once caused considerable losses to the McGowan outpost. .

About seven or eight years ago, when a group of nomads passed by the outpost of McGowan, they proposed to the soldiers stationed at the outpost to build underground residences. This suggestion was quickly adopted and implemented by the emperor of the empire.The soil in the western plain is soft and easy to dig. Therefore, in just a few months, the ground of the McGowan outpost was hollowed out, and residences, passages, and even shops were built... The outpost was originally one of the few Residents and soldiers stationed here lived in it.

Once there is a war, when the soldiers are fighting, the residents will move to a safe area along the underground passages extending in all directions. Because of the correct way of evacuation, the number of casualties at the McGowan Outpost, which would have been seriously injured in the event of a border conflict, has dropped sharply. After a few years, taking into account the people brought and settled down by the passing nomads, the population of the McGowan outpost actually showed a straight-line upward trend.

The increase in population has made the underground area of ​​the McGowan Outpost expand day by day, and now it has become an underground city under the McGowan Outpost.

Under the premise that safety is guaranteed, the merchants also set their sights on this wonderful underground city located at the forefront of the west side of the empire—one of the two merchants that Aize saw in the dining room on the ship , who took the order and planned to go to the McGowan Outpost to do business.

Although the time and place of hearing this rumor were already different, the keywords in the news itself made Ai Ze immediately connect the event with the timeline.

The "strange disease" in the original book is the first stage in which the pagan gods infiltrated their power into the human world.

The so-called "strange disease" is actually a symptom that appeared after the pagan gods coaxed humans to become their believers, and their power ate away human vitality.No one knows exactly where the pagan gods came from. The first preachers had their consciousness swallowed up and followed the instructions of the pagan gods, and began to spread the belief of the pagan gods from the most marginal towns of the empire.

The pagan gods had only one creed—eternal life.

Once you believe in this pagan god and become its follower, you can gain the ability to freeze time and eternal youth.The first group of believers were old people who could no longer feel youth. The promise of eternal life of the pagan gods was indeed very obvious at the beginning. The old believers found their bodies regressing back to youth day by day. The appearance of the time, the wrinkles have become less and disappeared, the skin has regained its luster, and the hair has returned to a soft and full of vitality from the original haggard piece...

But no one knows, this is just a despicable trick of the pagan god - what it uses on the believers is not its own power at all, but steals the soul power of the believers and obtains it by burning the power of the soul Energy to stimulate the potential of the human body, which makes believers seem to regain their youth visibly to the naked eye.

Therefore, the result directly reflected in the elderly believers caused more and more people to lose their original beliefs and crazily worship pagan gods.

Immediately afterwards, however, after a rather long period of dormancy, the ambitions of the pagan gods finally surfaced.

After enjoying their youth once more, the first believers encountered an irreversible state of affairs—their bodily functions became sluggish, and all the organs in the body did not age, but entered into a strange state. The state of stagnation, in the professional terms of Aize's original world, means that the vital signs drop rapidly and enter a dormant period without any external influence.

Yes, the purpose of the pagan gods is very simple, that is to bring all the believers back to the stage of the strongest vitality, and then seize the peak vitality of the believers in one fell swoop, forcing the believers to enter a state of eternal sleep.

The pagan gods will gain godhood after absorbing the constant vitality, thus becoming real gods.

It's called "eternal life," a beautiful and brutal hoax.

Once believers who believe in pagan gods enter a state of long sleep, even if the influence of pagan gods on believers is lifted, people will not wake up again.

So this is a very tricky matter, Aize knows, he has to find a chance to reveal this matter to Byron-but, how should I put it?

How did he, who came from the depths of the swamp east of the mountain city and close to the eastern border, know in such detail what happened at the forefront of the western plain?This matter must be exposed, but how to say Byron will not have a negative effect on his "prophet", this has to be carefully thought out.

Ai Ze swallowed the last mouthful of corn soup, looked at Byron thoughtfully, and then pretended to mention it casually: "...I don't know what strange disease makes them so afraid."

But Byron didn't seem to take the conversation between the two businessmen and Aize's "casual remarks" to heart, and just replied casually: "Maybe it was passed by Byer Landing, strange things in that country have always been a lot of."

It seems that Byron didn't intend to understand in depth, and Ai Ze didn't think of a better way to guide him, so he swallowed his words back.

In fact, they hurried all the way to report to Wangcheng. The matter about the orcs was not resolved. Without realizing the seriousness of the matter, Ai Ze felt that Byron probably would not put his mind on this matter. things up.

Sure enough, we still have to go to Wangcheng first.

Knowing that no matter how anxious he was, it would be futile. Ai Ze, who was no longer seasick, began to relax and stay on the boat. He ate, drank and slept well. After a few days in a row, he seemed to be a little fatter, but he was afraid after crossing. Eat the wind and drink the dew The meat lost during the season was replenished.

They had good luck on this boat trip, with smooth wind and smooth water, and it took only eight days to reach Boozer City.

The geographical position of Boozer City is close to the imperial city of Glare, so even though the source of the Nigaiya River is on the Nachlis Mountains, which is known as the natural barrier of the empire, the emperor of the empire still did not ignore the defense of Boozer City : For example, heavily guarded port checkpoints, people who landed by water and their belongings must be strictly interrogated, and the curfew implemented as a characteristic of the Orac Empire, etc.

The closer to the imperial city, the stricter the military deployment.

When the ship entered the port, the iconic pure white buildings in Boozer City immediately caught Aize's sight - as a spider who saw this inland port city for the first time, Aize felt that the city was simply beautiful There are pure white houses one after another, some with pointed roofs and some with flat roofs. At a glance, the whole city exudes an almost holy light in the bright and bright sun at noon.

Ai Ze withdrew his gaze, and his gaze fell on Yvette who was walking not far in front of him.

He hasn't met Yvette much in the past few days. This eldest lady is delicate and frail. After taking the medicine, it is said that she was much better, but after that, she basically stayed on the bed and rarely saw her come out—after all, there are many rough men on board, even if there are two brothers Byron and Simon protecting her, a noble lady like her It's best if you don't run around.

When the group walked to the checkpoint where the port entered the city, they saw a long line of countless people, and it took them a long time to move.

Byron and Simon looked at each other, and saw that Simon turned around and walked to another crossing on the side, and waved to them to let them pass after a while.

Ai Ze realized immediately - this cliff is a class privilege, the queue of civilians is so long, but Simon called them to go to the crossing there, even with his toes, he could guess Simon He must have shown his status as a nobleman to the port guards before giving them the green light.

Even though they were going through the VIP channel, they still deserved a lot of interrogation.It is not the first time that Ai Ze has been interrogated like this. He will never forget the unpleasant experience that happened when he was asked to search the body at the gate of the mountain city for the first time. He even feels unwilling to be interrogated this time. .

This time, under the premise of having a temporary residence registration plate, no guards asked to search him again, but Byron and Simon who had already passed the interrogation checkpoint and waited at the other end did not know if they also remembered Aize before. Being taken advantage of by the guards in the city of Agra, looking at his direction while laughing and talking, the smiles on the faces of the two brothers are full of ridicule.

... Really annoying!

Obviously, it is impossible for the two brothers who are eager to return home to stay in Boozer City for a long time. After finding a small shop to eat something to fill their stomachs, the group rented a carriage and three horses and headed towards the Boozer City. The direction of Wangcheng began to rush.

The wounds on Ai Ze's two thighs subsided as early as the third day after using the wound medicine, and there was a thin layer of scab, which was wiped off by himself in his sleep within two days. Therefore, there was no pain at all when riding the horse again. For this, Ai Ze was very grateful to Byron.

Boozer City is not far from the royal city of Glare. They set off at noon and drove all the way, but they entered the royal city just before the city gate closed.

Compared to the shock when he arrived at Boozer City at noon and saw the pure white buildings, it was already dark when Ai Ze followed everyone into the royal city. He didn't see the whole picture of Glare at all, but after nightfall The splendid appearance of the Wangcheng City full of lights is impressive.

After entering the city, Byron directly settled Aize, Yvette and her two maids in a two-story, inconspicuous house in the king's city - it is said that this is where the two brothers still lived. Byron bought it privately when he was young, and it has been used as an adventure base for the two of them until now.

When Byron introduced it like this, Ai Ze understood it in seconds—it is a product of the second phase of middle school, so he understands it.

Because it was the adventure base of the two brothers, there was also Simon's room in Byron's house, with a full set of clothing and accessories. The two quickly washed and changed their clothes, and immediately rode into the palace.

Aize, who was placed in the innermost room on the second floor by the butler of Byron's house, took a bath and relaxed. After wandering around the room boredly, he rolled his eyes.

He pulled out the little spider, Mene, who was hiding in his ear——

"Take out all the things you put in the space and let me have a look." Ai Ze was in such a bad mood when he asked him to put the baby in the dimensional space for safekeeping. He didn't even notice what Mo Ne did, and now finally When he had the chance to be alone, he naturally planned to take an inventory of his personal property, so Ai Ze made a request: "Let me see what you have packed."

When the little spider heard that there was a task, he raised his head excitedly: "Okay boss! No problem, boss!"

Its slender forelimbs clicked a few times in the void, and its rice-grain-sized body glowed with a burst of white light, and then a large bag fell out of nowhere on the empty floor on one side of the room like a zipped bag. pile of stuff——
