Astral Apostle

Chapter 15: Will? That's my stupid brother!

Chapter 15 Will? That's my stupid brother!

Alien World.

The white clouds are wispy, and the sky is as blue as wash.

A sapphire-like river surrounds the black-shirted forest, separating the verdant fields. There is a village by the river, and the smoke is wafting.

Somewhere in the river far away from the village, where there is no one around, the gentle and slow flowing water is washing the pebbles in the river bed day after day.

At this moment, a spot of light suddenly lit up at the bottom of the river, and the water flow suddenly converged, forming a transparent human shape, followed by the emergence of different colors, and the matter reorganized into the body of the astral apostle.

Whoa!

This body suddenly sat up from the bottom of the river, spit out a mouthful of water, and there was a small fry caught in it.

"Good guy, he really knows where to go!"

Zhou Jing quickly stood up from the river and climbed to the shore, his wet and rough clothes tightly clinging to his body. The cold wind was blowing so hard that he felt the skin all over his body tensed.

shuddered, Zhou Jing's expression was a little helpless.

Last time it was at least a piece of wood, this time it was made of water, and he didn’t dare to think about it next time.

If you were born in a cesspool, and restructured your body with chemical fertilizers accumulated over the years, it would be better to swallow the dung and commit suicide on the spot, turn the original soup into the original food, and quickly restart the next one.

In his second birth, Zhou Jing was familiar with the process. He looked at the reflection on the river and confirmed the appearance of this astral apostle.

Well, the facial features with tough lines, the neat inch head, the tall and strong body... We are right, half of the body is handsome.

Zhou Jing jumped on the spot twice, feeling light and light, more powerful than the body of "Will Wood".

"This time's physical fitness is 10 points, which is 1 point higher than last time. The actual change in feeling is quite obvious... It's just that my senses seem to be less sharp than last time. No wonder, after all, the talent is different."

Zhou Jing tried for a while before calling out the panel and glanced at it.

[Estimated length of stay: 7~10 days]

[Current sync rate: 10%]

"I increased the shuttle time by two hours. The duration of stay in the alien world is two or three days longer than the last time. It seems that the current difference in time flow rate should be one hour in the main world, and it is close to a day here. However, the difference in time flow rate will also fluctuate, and it may change in the future.”

Zhou Jing didn't worry too much about this, he looked at the synchronization rate and at the trait file.

Perseverance, style of martial arts, pursuit of strength...

Based on his simple experience analysis, this is a little bit of martial arts.

If you are persevering, you have a bit of this trait, and it seems that this time it is easy to synchronize.

Zhou Jing climbed up the beach, looked up, and soon saw a small group of houses in the distance, braving the smoke of cooking, it was estimated that it was Shuangmu Village.

"Fortunately, it's not too far... Let's get the followers out and see."

Zhou Jing looked around, and when no one was around, he activated the auxiliary function in the panel and summoned his followers.

Swish—

The sand a few meters away suddenly swirled and flew, and in an instant, he turned into a blank-faced man with a public face. It was the follower Ross that he had pinched before.

"This is the follower?"

Zhou Jing was very interested and circled around him.

Ross stayed where he was, his eyes followed Zhou Jing.

"Why do you feel dumb?"

Ross: (→_→)

"How to operate followers... can you speak?"

Ross: (←_←)

"Will sign language communication be possible?"

Ross: (→_→)

"Well, it doesn't seem to work... Saying that you can stop looking at me, it's pretty scary."

Ross: (←_→)

Fuck!

The eyeballs are turning over!

"Stop! Look at me!"

Ross: (o_O)

Zhou Jing wiped his cold sweat.

The eyeball finally returned to normal, why is it big or small, did it just touch the nerves...

He didn't dare to play with this follower again, for fear that there would be some unhuman operation.

After a little test, he found that the follower only needs to give verbal commands... Let him lie down, let him drink water, and drink it to the death, except that it is a little rigid, there is no other problem.

The junior follower is rather clumsy. Ross looks silly and doesn't have the ability to communicate, but he can save all the images he sees with his own eyes. Zhou Jing can check the other party's experience log through physical contact.

And in the dark, he can vaguely sense the direction of his followers to prevent them from getting lost.

"Think of the good, at least it can be used as a compass or an eye position...Follow me first."

Zhou Jing groped for clarity, nodded, and walked towards the village in the distance.

Ross followed closely behind.

…

After walking for a while, Frostwood Village was getting closer, and the scene came into view.

This is a small and peaceful village built next to the river. There are three mills by the river, a small stone bridge over the river, and a black-shirted forest across the river.

The surrounding area is a farmland surrounded by fences, and sections of low walls surround the village to plan the boundary.

At a glance, there are dozens of houses scattered in the village, made of stone bricks of different sizes, with yellow roofs and grey walls.

Zhou Jing took Ross along a dirt road to the village. Farmers working in the farmland by the road noticed the two and looked up curiously.

As soon as they entered the village, their two unfamiliar faces attracted more passers-by to watch.

"Who are these two?"

"It doesn't seem like someone from the village..."

gathered on the two with curious and vigilant eyes, the villagers whispered and followed carefully, as if they wanted to see what the two were doing in the village.

Zhou Jing noticed that some young villagers ran away, as if to inform someone, he thought about it, turned his head and walked towards the cemetery.

The cemetery is located on the edge of the village, and the tombstones are scattered.

Under the fearful and doubtful gazes of the villagers, Zhou Jing walked into the cemetery and searched for a while before finally finding his goal.

He stopped in front of a tombstone with two paragraphs written on it:

"Will Wood's Tomb"

"A brave soul sleeps here"

‘This is where my last body was buried…’

Zhou Jing raised his hand and touched the tombstone. There was no floating dust. It seemed that someone often cleaned it up.

Does this count as sweeping your own grave... It feels quite subtle.

Not long after, there was a loud noise outside the cemetery.

The crowd of onlookers separated, and three hunters with bows and knives hurried over.

was headed by Griff. Looking at this stranger who suddenly came to the village, he asked with a cautious tone:

"Who are you? What are you doing in Shuangki Village?"

Zhou Jing looked back and his eyes lit up.

The three hunters are all familiar faces. When I controlled the last apostle, I fought side by side with them.

Hearing the question, Zhou Jing smiled and did not answer immediately. Instead, he pointed to the tombstone, deliberately made a heavy expression, and asked:

"Do you know him?"

"Huh?" Griff made a questioning nasal sound.

He couldn't help looking up and down Zhou Jing's body this time, secretly curious about the origin of this stranger.

Just now, the villagers came to inform him that two suspicious men had entered the village and went straight to the cemetery, and Griff immediately brought people over.

He didn't know the origin of the two outsiders, but only now noticed that the two stopped by Will Wood's tomb and seemed to be mourning.

Could it be that these two have something to do with Will Wood?

Griff was taken aback.

Unsure of Zhou Jing's intentions, Griff thought about it and answered truthfully:

"Know, he's a lost traveler we met in the forest."

"Why was he buried here? How did he die?"

Zhou Jing asked the question knowingly, and deliberately showed a deep expression.

Griff became more and more suspicious of Zhou Jing's identity, worried about causing misunderstanding, and answered honestly:

"We happened to be hunting alien beasts in the forest, and happened to meet Will, he asked us for help, we took him, and we planned to take him out of the forest after the hunt.

But when we were hunting, we were attacked by the nearby Earth Skeletons, and Will was unfortunately poisoned. I took him back to the village for treatment, but couldn't save his life, so I buried him here..."

Having said this, Griff looked a little sad.

Although some time has passed, he is still haunted by Will's death.

Zhou Jing thought about it and asked, "How long has he been dead?"

"About twenty-eight days."

Twenty-eight days... It's been about a day and a half since the last time I returned to the main world. It seems that the flow of time is still fluctuating, but it is about an hour in the main world, and it is a day close to the alien world.

Zhou Jing was thinking in his heart, his face was calm, and he said slowly: "Did he die heroically?"

"Of course!"

Griff did not hesitate.

After a pause, he explained: "Although Will is not a hunter, he fought alongside us and helped us kill alien beasts... If it wasn't for him, I might have died, and he saved my life!"

Having said this, Griff couldn't help but be curious, and said:

"You ask me so much about Will, who are you?"

You finally asked...

Zhou Jing raised his brows, thought for a while, patted the tombstone, and sighed deeply:

"Will...he's my dear brother!"

Griff and the two hunters beside him were stunned at the same time.

What, Will has a brother? !

And it came to you!

Griff subconsciously said:

"Then what is your name..."

Zhou Jing raised his eyes, looked directly at Griff, and said every word:

"My name is...Jason Wood!"
