The Creators: From Night City

The feather pen finally finished writing, and the blue vision once again focused its gaze on Jiang Bing's [Key].

"I don't have the authority this time. I need to get a stamp from higher-ups. Please wait."

The [Key] gradually rose into the air under the gaze of the Blue Vision, and finally, when it reached a height where it could look into its eyes, it disappeared from its gaze.

While waiting for the formalities to be completed, Jiang Bing asked the question that had been on his mind.

"Who exactly is this 'He' you're talking about?"

Azure Vision didn't seem to find it strange at all that Jiang Bing asked this question.

"He is He. Since you don't know Him, I can't tell you."

Jiang Bing raised his head and looked into the huge eyes, only reading one message from them.

This is the turtle's buttocks - regulations!

Soon, with a flash of light, the [Door Key] was teleported back again. The difference was that this time, a '∞' symbol was knocked on the [Door Key].

"Although the boat is free, the regulations were updated two centuries ago to prevent certain unforeseen situations. For situations like yours, there are certain requirements for the interval between uses. You'll know the specific situation when the time comes."

The azure vision seemed to recall some unpleasant memories, and the entire pupil began to tremble.

"That's basically it. Have a nice trip."

After explaining all this, Zhanlanzhishi, like a corporate slave going through a routine process, closed the book in the air, let it disappear, and turned to float out of the warehouse.

Finally, he threw another sentence into Jiang Bing's ear.

"Since you don't know anything, I'll give you a suggestion. If there's a world you want to visit, you can talk to [Key] and maybe it will come true."

Jiang Bing seemed to be lost in thought. Before he could say thank you, Azure Vision had already slipped out of the warehouse. As the light curtain closed, only he and the Mackinaw Larrimore were left in the huge warehouse.

Jiang Bing naturally had no need to stay any longer. After all, Big Eyes didn't even mention providing meals.

According to the Blue Vision, Jiang Bing held the [key], imagined that the space in front of him was a door, raised his hand and pushed, and actually inserted the key into the void.

Before turning the key, Jiang Bing recalled the advice given by the Blue Vision before leaving and tried to instill his own thoughts into the [Key].

"Rich resources, wealth, low risk, stable, modern, and yes, technological."

Muttering these key words, Jiang Bing turned the key to the right and pushed out a light curtain.

Looking at the unknown behind the scenes, Jiang Bing got on the Mackinaw Larrimore and drove in again with trepidation.

Chapter 30 Entering the New World

What does it feel like to break into a new world?

Compared to the coma during the first time he traveled through time, Jiang Bing remained conscious throughout this journey.

Since there are no exact coordinates, the whole process of crossing the world is like playing on a giant water slide, but you don’t know where the destination is.

Only the speed is getting faster and faster.

In the feeling of rapid progress, until one moment, consciousness seems to suddenly break through the surface of the water, and when I open my eyes again, I have arrived in a new world.

When you first arrive in the new world, the first thing you feel is the feeling of weightlessness.

This gave Jiang Bing a bad feeling.

Sure enough, the man and the car are now high in the air and are starting to fall freely.

It was dark outside the car window at first, and then the sea level with waves and no end in sight appeared.

Where did this go for me!? .JPG

Mackinaw Larimore began to fall continuously at an accelerated rate under the influence of gravity, and almost at the same time, a thick bolt of lightning suddenly exploded.

The lightning was very close to Jiang Bing's car, almost passing it by. A faint stench of ionized oxygen molecules in the air immediately emanated from the air conditioner which was still in operation.

At this moment, Jiang Bing discovered that the sky was filled with dark clouds, which were extremely low. Lightning and thunder flashed as they floated and surged, and the howling wind blew raindrops against the car windows, making crackling sounds.

I was in the middle of a violent storm at sea, and I and my car had just passed through the dark clouds!

Before Jiang Bing could utter a word of admiration, Mackinaw Larrimore had already approached the water surface.

Jiang Bing could only open the car door and jump out before it crashed into the sea.

The huge weight caused the car to plummet to the bottom of the sea with the weapons and supplies inside, leaving Jiang Bing, who was in tears but had no tears, to surface alone.

He had just arrived in the new world and had nothing to do, but a new task fell on his shoulders: he had to find a way to get the car out.

Fortunately, there was a large island in the distance, lying in front of Jiang Bing's left.

This finally made the passengers feel better after their unfortunate start.

Being close to such a large island means that the sea surface at the crash site is not too deep from the seabed. The Mackinaw Larrimore, who has completed the achievement of trekking through mountains and rivers and breaking through clouds and waves, will not fall into the deep sea and never see the light of day again. It will not be difficult to salvage the things on it.

Raindrops as big as beans hit the sea surface around Jiang Bing. The impact of the storm made the waves turbulent and disorderly, forming violent and dangerous whirlpools under the sea surface.

Of course, this wave that can sweep away normal people is completely useless to Jiang Bing. After lamenting the tragic fate of losing all supplies as soon as he landed, Jiang Bing threw out his powerful arms and began to ride the wind and waves, sprinting towards the island at a speed not much slower than that of a motorboat.

As he got closer, Jiang Bing realized that the entire island seemed to be surrounded by a violent storm, and the scale of the storm had grown a lot in a short while.

Thick dark clouds were almost pressing down on the sea level, and from time to time, silver chains burst out between the sea water and the dark clouds, as if the world was about to be destroyed.

Jiang Bing quickly swam to the coastline, chose a flat beach, and officially landed on the island.

The island is indeed very large, with dense vegetation and undulating terrain. Looking from afar along the coastline, you can see towering mountains with trees blocking out the sun.

Obvious traces of human construction can still be seen in the vast forest.

'I'm lucky,' Jiang Bing thought.

At least it is not a deserted island. The traces of buildings naturally mean that humans live here.

The rocky seashore was littered with broken oars and masts pushed up by the surging waves. Some of the ship's hulls were almost torn into pieces by the waves, and all kinds of garbage were scattered everywhere.

Jiang Bing took a few steps and saw half of the wreckage of a modern fishing boat that had been corroded by sea water and stuck between two reefs. This made him feel relieved about the current timeline.

It seems that the instructions I gave to [Key] before leaving were really useful.

Jiang Bing raised his hand, and the [Door Key] appeared in front of him.

However, at this moment, it had become extremely dim, and the starlight that originally existed in the key had dissipated. The entire key was even more transparent and illusory.

Fortunately, the newly covered '∞' symbol was shining brightly, and a few rays of starlight continued to overflow from it, pouring into the interior of the [Key], slowly replenishing its starlight.

It seems that these stars represent boat tickets.

Jiang Bing tried to use it to communicate with his own warehouse in the 'port', but the feedback he got was also not enough.

Is there a fee for opening the door?

Jiang Bing tried to use his consciousness to ask [Door Key] about the charging standards, and then he understood from the information sent back by [Door Key].

Opening the 'Warehouse' and heading to the 'Port' have the same charge, and both heading to and leaving the 'Port' require half the Starlight in the [Key].

However, considering that opening the 'warehouse' is actually opening the door to the 'port', such a charge seems reasonable.

Now that there's an opportunity, I have to find a way to get a piece of space-type equipment that I can carry with me, Jiang Bing thought to himself.

The "warehouse" is worthy of its name. Apart from being used to transfer goods between the two worlds, it seems that it is not very suitable as a portable space.

Too expensive!

After checking the [door key], Jiang Bing skillfully opened the system to confirm the situation.

The personal attribute panel is being listed for you.

Looking at the world in the system that had the same number as the previous part of the cyberpunk world, Jiang Bing always felt that he had not run too far this time.

After confirming that there were no other problems, Jiang Bing turned off the system and walked into the dense forest closely connected to the beach in the storm, all wet.

The trees in the forest grew very densely. A large number of camphor trees, nanmu trees, fir trees and other trees were lush and leafy, with thick branches sticking out. The jagged branches invisibly blocked the heavy rain.

The lush ferns also grew very luxuriantly, with their intertwined roots and nodes making it difficult to pass through.

Stepping on knee-high weeds, Jiang Bing stopped beside a bamboo forest.

He didn't expect to find traces of human activity so soon.

Although the building in front of him had long been abandoned and had been eroded by various plants in the jungle under the power of nature, this pile of ruins was still very helpful to Jiang Bing now.

Unknown vines are winding around the broken building wood. From the layout and construction method, it can be clearly seen that it has a Japanese style.

Jiang Bing moved away the roof beams that had mostly collapsed, and used the wood that had not yet been rotted by the sun and rain to build a simple shelter along a corner of the wall that had not collapsed.

Although it was leaky everywhere, at least there was a roof, which could be used to keep out the rain and make a fire.

For a craftsman, making fire by rubbing two sticks together is as easy as taking something out of a bag.

He found a fallen rotten tree, carried it back to the shelter, and peeled off the bark soaked by rain. With Jiang Bing's current strength, he kneaded the already rotten trunk into a pile of highly flammable wood fibers like kneading dough.

No tools were used. I just pulled out a few tough vines, added a tile of the right shape and a hard dry branch, and a fire bow was made.

Thanks to Jiang Bing's superb craftsmanship, the fire bow he made was incredibly solid.

With Jiang Bing's steady and high-speed output of both hands, flames quickly ignited in this simple shelter.

With the light of the fire, the warmth finally dispelled the chill of the wind and rain.

Although with Jiang Bing's current physical condition, it is difficult for him to feel cold in the normal environment of nature.

Listening to the sound of rain hitting leaves in the forest, even though there is only a simple bonfire now, an inexplicable sense of security still comes over me.

As a loyal partner in the development of human civilization, the influence of fire on human beings is also deeply rooted in their genes.

Jiang Bing took off his wet shirt and lining, and hung them on the wreckage of a building to dry. He simply left his upper body naked, and the flames danced, painting his copper- and iron-like muscles into warm colors.

"Woo~~"

A long and powerful wolf howl sounded from the deep forest not far away, followed by more howls one after another.

There are actually wolves here. Judging from the sounds, it’s at least a large wolf pack?

This fact made Jiang Bing doubt his previous view that the island was inhabited.

However, these howls that could easily cause fear in ordinary people actually aroused Jiang Bing's appetite.

This is a wolf, a living, authentic, juicy and moving wolf steak!

Jiang Bing was fed up with the technology and hard work in the cyberpunk world. In Night City, where the technology was countless times more advanced than that of this island, the lower class people couldn't even drink a sip of clean, unpolluted water.

Thinking of this, Jiang Bing stood up, stretched his waist and tiger back, picked up a clay pot that was not completely broken on the ground, placed it in an open area to collect rainwater, and then walked into the deep forest with his upper body naked, heading towards the place where the wolf howl came from.

The branches and leaves of various plants that filled all the space in the forest scratched Jiang Bing's skin, which was many times tougher than old cowhide, without leaving even a trace of red marks. Jiang Bing also forcibly pushed a path through the bushes on the ground.

Jiang Bing, who never took detours, built roads wherever he went and bridges wherever he went, and only walked for less than ten minutes before he found the victims on a flat, green, grassy clearing in the forest.

What's even more surprising is that the wolf pack has successfully hunted a sika deer. Several Japanese wolves, which look like German Shepherds but are more wild, are either squatting or sitting, grinding their teeth and sucking blood, waiting for the leader wolf to eat so that they can start to enjoy the feast.

But at this critical moment, a terrifying upright ape with a bare chest pushed aside the grass and barged into the wolves' restaurant.

After Jiang Bing caught a flying wolf in his arms like a sandbag and broke its neck easily like breaking a sugarcane, the wolves could only shrewdly put away their newly formed grimaces, tucked their tails between their legs, and fled.

There is no way. It is very important to find the right position in the food chain in the jungle. Those who cannot find the right position will be put on the table.

With a wolf in his left hand and a deer in his right hand, Mr. Jiang returned home with a full load.

As the fruit branches specially collected by Jiang Bing were thrown into the fire in large quantities, the deer legs and wolf legs were sizzling with oil under the high temperature. A real and strong aroma of barbecue mixed with the curling smoke rose up, drifted out from the dilapidated roof, and finally dissipated into the mountains and forests.

It smells so good.

Jiang Bing almost choked as he tore into the barbecue. Even if this world swallowed up all his wealth as soon as they met, just these few bites of the original, authentic Old Tokyo barbecue legs made Jiang Bing forgive most of it.
