Chapter 1 The Burning World
Chapter 1 The Burning World
A boy, a boy in full-covered plate armor, was standing on a hill full of green. He held his helmet and looked at the town below with an excited expression.
Familiar technology, familiar objects, and even those who don’t know him feel very friendly. This is the earth, and it may be the place where he used to be home. But, this is not his home. The boy knew it the first time he entered this world. The world rejected him and he did not belong here.
However, that's just a mere world rejection, and the boy doesn't care much. He finally found a place that is not far from his home. It would be fine if he stayed for a while, right?
The boy rushed towards the town excitedly.
Just like what I saw in the distance, this is a world with similar technological standards as the boy's hometown, even in time. At the beginning of the 21st century, the boy always felt something was wrong. The people passing by around him seemed to have something missing.
However, the boy had no time to pay attention to these things. He felt the surprised eyes from the people around him, sighed helplessly, and decided to find a place to get two suitable sets of clothes to wear.
However, before that, he had to get some currencies that could be used in this world. In this world, gold and other things are obviously not coins for people's lives. So, it is natural that the gold coins he carried on him would probably not be used.
The boy casually found a public chair to sit down, thinking about whether there was any way to get money without breaking the law. However, before he could think about something, he was thinking about it.
The world has changed.
The fiery red colors suddenly filled the whole world. From the downtown area with restaurants and cafes, and the sunset that dyed everything red, the clear and mysterious crimson flames shaking violently...
The boy stood up and looked back and saw that everything seemed to be turbid and turbid. A thing made of unknown flames, not known as totems or magic circles, appeared on the earth.
Although the boy did not know what these things were, this could not prevent the boy from feeling the ingredients contained therein.
The power of existence. At least it is people who have traveled many worlds, and they still have this vision. However, the power of existence is not something that any creature can drive at will. It is one of the basic skeletons of the world.
Moreover, the boy looked back and looked around. All the pedestrians stood there without any movement. No, maybe it could not be said that there was no movement, it was just like the internet was suddenly interrupted while playing the game. All the characters kept the movement they had made at the last moment and stopped, but you were still moving.
The boy held his forehead and thought for no reason that the scene was very familiar. However, some things still needed some confirmation, so he stood there, put his hands on his chest, "The loyal fighting horse jumped in the light."
From the young man's hands folded, some light overflowed. The light quickly built a simple door in the air. A war horse wearing armor and emitting some glory jumped out of the door, stopped in front of the young man, lowered his head, and dashed his hooves.
"It feels so good to see you in the tangible world again, my old guy." The boy patted the head of the war horse and then turned over the horse. "Charge, old guy, let's see who is standing behind all this."
A ray of light flashed, and it seemed like a cross-shaped emblem flashed away in a vague way. The boy and his war horse began their running in this modern city.
Unfortunately, the boy was not a hunter after all, and he really had no talent in finding things. However, it seemed that this search would not take long to end. Not far away, a burst of smoke and dust filled with him, and a huge sound came over.
The boy drove the war horses to approach that direction quickly, and turned around a street corner, and the scene in front of him stunned.
A huge thing that seemed to be a doll, and a thing that seemed to be a ball was fighting a girl with fiery red hair. Behind the girl, a "person" was sitting on the ground. Then, an object with a human appearance was approaching quietly towards the "person" sitting on the ground.
Without time to think too much, the young man rushed up on his war horse and shouted: "For the Holy Light!" while pulling out a two-handed war hammer from his space bag (Akiruth's Hammer of the Insect Suppression).
He arrived just before the thing started, and the young man stood up with the reins of the horse, and the horse's hooves stood up high. He used the horse's power to hit hard with one hammer, not to mention the hammer with a holy light. "Crusader strike!" the young man roared.
"Bang!" With a loud bang, the thing was knocked away like a real human.
The body of the thing, where the wounded place was burning with a light blue flame. "It's true that's not a human." The boy determined something, "and the whole body was filled with the smell of existence." The boy controlled the war horse under him and slowly approached the thing. The war hammer in his hand emitted a bright light, "Tell me, you are the ones who caused this situation now! What are you?"
The thing just groaned while crying and retreating, trying to stay away from the boy.
"It seems that I can't reply well anymore." As soon as the young man lifted the reins, the war horse began to accelerate, "Then, for glory!" The war horse charged fearlessly, and its iron hooves hit the earth.
Then, the ponytail was caught. The hand that grabbed the ponytail was very powerful. The boy felt that his war horse had stopped. Then, in order to prevent the unrelated personnel from being injured, the boy drove the war horse to stop. However, although the boy stopped, the person who grabbed the ponytail did not stop. The girl with fiery red hair had already jumped towards the thing with the force that had just pulled.
With one knife, the thing was cutting off the hand that was blocking the front. Just as the girl was about to strike another knife, the boy who could still be called a human was blocked in front of the girl.
Then the thing put his hand into the body of the "person", as if looking for something. Then, even the "person" brought the thing was cut open by the girl.
The boy was riding on the horse and looked at everything inexplicably. Although he didn't know what to do, he seemed to be very busy there, so it would be better not to disturb him for the time being.
Later, due to the intrusion of the "person", a smaller doll-like thing crawled out of the thing ran away. The girl was entangled with the "person".
The young man dismounted and walked over. The war horse neighed loudly behind the young man, jumped into the air, turned into light in the air, and disappeared.
Before he could get there, he saw the girl grabbing the "person" with two cuts, putting it together, and then blew a breath. The "person"'s body ignited a fire in an instant, and then it was extinguished in an instant. The "person" was repaired. The girl turned her head and said, "Do you guy look down on me? You actually want to steal prey from me!" The girl looked up and down at the young man, "Who is your guy's contractor?"
"Don't be careless, this guy is not a fire fog warrior!" An uncle's voice appeared on the battlefield, "No one in the Red World is a steward of light."
The girl pulled out the long sword that she had just put away again and asked in a low voice at the boy, "So, is it a disciple?"
"No, there is no light used in the Red World." The uncle's voice appeared again. This time the boy understood what was talking, it was the pendant worn by the girl on her chest.
"Isn't the guy over there?" The girl was stunned, then looked up impatiently and asked the boy in front of him: "Hey! What is you guy?"
The boy had a black thread at the end, not to mention that he was pointed at by someone with a knife. The boy smiled bitterly, first took the weapon in his bag, and replied: "I'm just a human."
"Impossible! I have never seen any human being as powerful as you." The girl directly denied this possibility.
"Then," the boy took a deep breath, "introduce yourself. My name is Zhao Mian, and I can be regarded as a qualified Paladin, a member of the Knights of the Silver Hands, a nobleman of Stormwind City, and now I am just a traveler. I am a newcomer to this place. I have something to offend just now, so please forgive me."
"Yarastel, have you heard of any Paladin, Silver Hand, Stormwind?" the girl asked her pendant in a low voice.
"No, this is the first time I have heard these things in such a long time." The voice was silent before saying, it seemed that I had thought about it carefully.
"Then are you lying to me?" The girl rushed straight up without waiting for the pendant's response.
The boy should be called Zhao Mian now. Zhao Mian was not panicked. Facing the powerful slash of the girl opposite, he just took out a shield (Lothalen Royal Emblem Shield) from his luggage, blocking the girl's attack, and then knocked her to the girl's forehead, knocking her to the ground.
At this time, the voice of Yalastor had just sounded: "Don't be reckless, figure it out... OK."
Zhao Mian stretched out his hand to help the girl up, sighed, and said, "Then, I will explain it clearly. I am a paladin, and there is no doubt about this. I am a traveler now, and this is not a lie to you. The reason you have never heard of these is because I am a traveler traveling in various worlds, not a traveler."
"So, is it a visitor from another world?" said the pendant uncle, "From this point, he looks very similar to the Red World disciples."
"It's different." Zhao Mian shook his head, "The Red World people you mentioned are planes at most. I am an outsider who broke the barriers of the world and broke into it. However, what I can guarantee is that I am definitely not a dangerous person or a person. I can't stay in this world for long, because the world always drives me away all the time."
The girl stroked her forehead and stood there, "Anyway, you won't think that those guys just now can eat people like you, right?"
"Absolutely not." Zhao Mian's head shook like something, "In Azeroth, only ogres can do it."
"That's it." The girl raised her left hand, "Next." She raised her index finger toward the sky, and a ray of light emanated from there, and some "human" images slowly emerged around her.
