Secret Dice Chapter 53

Chapter 53 The Wilderness Gate

 Jiangdong Province, Donghai City, nine o'clock in the morning.

 A plane made another landing and stopped at Donghai Airport. After the boarding bridge was erected, the cabin door opened and the passengers walked out with their luggage.

Luo Jun, who was carrying a schoolbag, was also among them.

It has been a week since the exam ended. Five days ago, he received the admission notice from the school. It was exactly as Mr. Yuan said. Although Song Yi saw through his concealment, he did not embarrass him.

The admission notice also stated that ordinary people who do not understand Yuan Qi and beginners in the solid state can use the three months before the start of school to improve their Yuan Qi at Ningdong University, where they will be guided by specialized teachers.

Of course, if you don't want to, you can also do things on your own, but after the school starts, the school's classes and courses will not be able to take care of low-level students as much as they did during the exam. By then, those with insufficient vitality will run the risk of falling behind.

Luo Jun naturally did not choose to go to school for further studies, because his master Yuan Shouzhen had already arranged more difficult courses for him.

Jiangdong Province is one of the most economically developed regions in China. As the provincial capital, Donghai City is also one of the top modern metropolises in the country. It is a world of difference compared to the third-tier Ningdong City. However, Mr. Yuan's schedule was so tight that Luo Jun had no time to appreciate the modern atmosphere of Donghai City. He didn't even leave the airport, so he took the subway directly to Dongwan Pier and caught the 10:30 a.m. ferry to Lingyun Island. .

Lingyun Island is located in the East China Sea of ​​Sinian, more than 80 nautical miles away from Donghai City. It covers an area of ​​more than 50 square kilometers and has a permanent population of about 30,000 people.

From the map, this is an inconspicuous island with no famous specialties and no beautiful scenery. In today's information age, the residents of the island are still low-key and secluded. Even the nearest Donghai City , and few people know about this island.

I heard that this island seems to be very exclusive. The residents of the island have spontaneously formed patrols. Fishermen from other places who go to sea will be warned and expelled if they accidentally approach this island.

Even the daily ferry is operated by Lingyun Island itself. Other than that, there is no way to get close to the island.

 The reason is that Lingyun Island is an island open only to Yuan Qi practitioners.

Luo Jun got out of the subway and came to Dongwan Pier. He found the ferry timetable. After looking for a long time, he couldn't find the ferry flight to Lingyun Island. When I asked the ticket office, there was no ferry ticket to Lingyun Island.

"There is no such thing..." Luo Jun looked at the ticket information on his mobile phone and muttered: "Master also said that as long as you get to the pier, you can find it at a glance. There is not even a timetable. Where can I find it?"

After passing the security check with doubts, Luo Jun entered the waiting hall. His eyes scanned the various boarding gates lined up, and his eyes were soon attracted by an inconspicuous boarding gate in the corner.

Compared with other spacious and eye-catching boarding gates, this small gate is unique. There is no large screen showing flight information, no staff in uniforms checking tickets, and even the door is half smaller than the others, looking shabby and old. There is no gate for checking tickets. There is only a little old lady blocking the door, checking a ticket and letting each person go.

 At first sight, you would probably mistake this for the toilet door.

The reason why Luo Jun was able to notice this place among the many magnificent ticket gates was because there were several huge light characters shining above this inconspicuous ticket gate:

“Those who go to Lingyun Island come here!”

This light character is composed of vitality. Ordinary people cannot see it at all and cannot pay attention to it. However, practitioners of vitality can be attracted by it at a glance.

As for the person who maintains this bright character, it is the old lady checking tickets at the door.

Being able to release your vitality, at least in the Peiyuan realm, and being able to use your vitality to write such large and complex characters and still maintain it shows that your energy and control skills are very high. This old lady may look inconspicuous, but she is actually a master. ah.

Luo Jun also walked over and showed the ticket to the old man. The old lady scanned it with the machine in her hand and let him pass after confirming that it was correct.

 Passing through the ticket gate, he came to a special passage, which seemed to lead in a different direction than ordinary tourists. Luo Jun walked all the way, and when he got out of the passage, a huge ferry appeared in front of him.

To the naked eye, it seemed to be no different from an ordinary ferry, but under Luo Jun's field of vision, he could see the faint fluctuations of energy on the ship.

 Luo Jun's first reaction was that this was the vitality exuded by the passengers on the ferry. But he soon realized that something was wrong. Even cultivators at the Peiyuan realm and above, in order to save physical strength, hide their aura, and are not in a combat state, they would only cover the body surface with a thin layer of Gang Qi at most, which could not be dispersed outside the hull at all. Come.

Especially when Luo Jun boarded the ship, he could clearly feel that the fluctuations covering the ship were very thick and stable, probably coming from the devices on the ship used to protect the hull.

Then this is a bit powerful. To cover such a huge hull and still maintain a certain strength, the consumption of vitality is absolutely terrifying. Regardless of whether it can collect so much vitality, just a ship that can store a huge amount of vitality The equipment is at least a legendary treasure.

This is the background of "door"...

Finding his seat, Luo Jun looked at the almost full cabin and remembered the teacher's instructions yesterday. "Three days later, it will be the day when the gate to the wilderness opens. I will help you book a ferry ticket to Lingyun Island. You can get off the plane and take the subway directly to the pier. You can get to Lingyun Island by boat."

“The Gate of Wilderness? Isn't it right, master? I haven't even entered the school yet, so you are going to send me to another world?”

"It's not like you haven't been there before." Yuan Shouzhen snorted coldly: "Compared to the B-level chaos mission, the wilderness is a relatively gentle world."

"Real or false?" Luo Jun didn't believe it: "I read the posts on the forum. The wild world is full of monsters, but they are not gentle at all."

"Don't believe all the posts on the Internet, just watch the fun!" Mr. Yuan said seriously: "I was just here to train your vitality, and I didn't tell you about the 'door' in detail. I just took this opportunity to give you a good fuck." a lesson."

“Currently, it is known that there are three 'doors' in Cathay. The world behind the door is called [Martial Arts], [Supernatural] and [Barbaric] according to its characteristics.”

“The gate of [Wulin] is located deep in Ningyuan Mountain. This is why Ningdong, an inconspicuous city, has an Explorer Academy.”

“The gate of [Supernatural] is located in Puhua Mountain in the southwest of Cathay. There is also an Explorer Academy there.”

“These two doors are under the jurisdiction of the association and are officially controlled.”

“As for the third [Barbarian] Gate, it is on Lingyun Island and is in private hands.”

“Can a private person control a door?” Luo Jun said in surprise.

"Gates appeared one after another more than a hundred years ago. The gates that appeared on the mainland caused riots and were quickly controlled by the government. However, Lingyun Island was isolated overseas. By the time the gates became known to the outside world, the islanders had already turned to the gates. After many years of exploration, we have accumulated a profound foundation.”

“The government also tried to take back the jurisdiction of the gate, but met with fierce resistance from the islanders. Most of them gained control of their strength by exploring the wilderness, and coupled with their geographical advantages, they became a force that cannot be underestimated.”

"After several frictions, the government and the islanders reached an agreement. The gate is under the jurisdiction of the islanders, but the information inside the gate needs to be disclosed to the government, and a certain proportion of the resources obtained from the gate must be handed over. The government will also explore the islanders' The act was sponsored and supported... Later in modern society, this agreement was revised several times, but in the end Lingyun Island retained jurisdiction over the Wilderness Gate."

"I didn't expect there to be such a history..." Luo Jun nodded: "Master, in that case, why don't you let me go to the other two doors under the jurisdiction of the association? Where there are local snakes, won't there be trouble?"

"After so many years of development, Lingyun Island's management has been very perfect and will not embarrass outsiders." Yuan Shouzhen explained: "And more importantly, Lingyun Island, as an unofficial organization, is not so strict in the review of explorers. As long as you pay according to their rules, they don't care what you do in the wilderness, and they won't delve into your background and identity. This is more convenient for you."

“Is it really appropriate to let people go to other worlds casually like this?”

Luo Jun remembered that Mr. Yuan said that the "door" is only more conspicuous in the main world. From the other side, the "door" is almost completely transparent and very hidden. Therefore, all the gates currently are discovered and controlled by humans first, and then they use them to quietly explore other worlds. None of the currently known alien worlds know of the existence of the main world.

Therefore, the screening of explorers from other worlds is very strict. One of the criteria is the ability to keep secrets. For this reason, the association has even developed related secrets to restrict explorers from revealing information about the main world.

But the door to Lingyun Island was just given away for money, so weren't you afraid that you would be behind the door and get information about the main world?

"There is no need to worry about this at all." Mr. Yuan smiled: "Because the wild world is a primitive world full of monsters, and there is no civilization at all."

"The primitive world full of monsters..." His thoughts returned to reality, and Luo Jun looked at the other passengers in the ferry: "In this situation, the danger comes not only from monsters, but also from the mixed group of explorers who come in bulk for profit..."

Most of these passengers can see a faint aura of Gang Qi on their bodies, and they are all at least starting from the Peiyuan realm. But other than that, they looked like ordinary people.

　　Practitioners also have to live in reality, and their clothes are not too exaggerated. For example, the person sitting next to Luo Jun now is a little old man with an unattractive appearance.

"Young man, are you going to hunt in the wilderness?" The old man looked to be in his sixties. His upper body was a loose hurdle vest, his lower body was a pair of coarse cloth shorts that reached the knees, and he was wearing a pair of slippers. He looked like he could be seen everywhere in the village. uncle.

"Yes." Luo Jun replied with a smile: "This is my first time going there. Sir, you can see that you have a lot of experience. Is there anything you can pass on to the younger generation?"

“Young man is quite good at talking.” The man in the vest smiled and said, “It's your first time here, so you must have never registered with the Wilderness Hunters Guild?”
