No one spoke on the entire beach anymore!

At this moment, everyone was taking the opportunity as if they were dead! A desperate thought lingered in everyone's hearts!

The ship was destroyed...

We...can't go back...

Without that sea boat, there is no possibility of crossing the ocean in thousands of miles!

Everyone... everyone, everyone in this team, has no hope to go home again! There is no hope to return to that familiar continent!

This kind of blow is almost fatal to everyone's psychology!

Even the casual sailors seemed to be stunned by the news, forgot to exclaim, scream, and noise.

Everyone's expression was shocked, then he was stunned, subconsciously looking at his companions, around him, and those in the church - when they found that those in the church who were regarded as the backbone also had the same expression as themselves...

Human psychology is really broken!

I don’t know who started it first, but there were people crying in the crowd, and then they cried in a low voice.

The crying seemed to be contagious, and soon more people started to cry, and finally burst into tears.

Cursing, roaring, venting... all kinds of voices finally arrived.

Some crew members even began to point at the church’s people and curse. The curse was the people from the church that brought them to this dead place!

Some crew members who had lost their minds even jumped up and rushed towards the nearest church person beside them, punched and kicked, and were soon pushed to the ground by the knights of the church - he forgot to get up again, just sat on the beach, hugged his head, and started crying loudly.

The chaotic scene lasted for half an hour.

People are venting wildly, roaring, roaring and crying...

During this period, some people started fighting, but the church had an absolute advantage and quickly threw the sailors to the ground.

On the beach, there was a terrifying romance.

Lanlan also had red eyes, so she stood at the edge of the crowd. Because there were three sacred knights in front of her, no crew sailor rushed to her and she was stormed.

Lan Lan took a deep breath and looked back at the vast sea... The sun in the sky was still bright, but when she shone on her body, she couldn't feel any warmth.

But Lan Lan finally calmed down.

He wiped the corners of his eyes hard and wiped away the tears. Lanlan took two steps and patted the shoulders of a confused Saint Knight. When the Saint Knight turned his head and looked at Lanlan with a confused look, Lanlan smiled at him.

Then, the saint of the church took action by herself, brought the fragments of the broken landing craft from the beach, and then she jumped up and stood at the highest position.

"Everyone! Listen to me!!! Just be quiet!!!"

Lan Lan shouted several times, but there was no good effect. She simply pulled out her own sword and slashed hard at the ground in front of her!

There was a loud bang! With a faint light of Douqi, the sand flew.

This movement finally attracted everyone's attention.

"Quiet! Listen to me! If you don't want to die!!"

Lan Lan's face had become stern.

The girl's voice is still very sharp and even a little tender, but at this moment, her face and her voice seem to have a sense of majesty and determination naturally!

"I know. You are all very scared!! We have come to a strange continent! A strange world! We have lost our sea boats! We have lost the means of transportation to return home!! We cannot rely on our own body to swim through the vast sea and go home! Yes! I can understand your fears, your worries, and your despair!!"

Lan Lan raised her voice and shouted loudly: "But!! Is it really time for us to despair? No! No! Everyone! I can tell you! It's not time for despair yet!!! We still have hope!!!"

This sentence attracted more people's attention, and many people wiped away their tears and looked at such a girl with expectations.

"You saw it! This is a strange continent! What we can be sure of is that this place is very big! Very big!! I firmly believe that on such a continent, there must be people living and living here!! According to the information obtained by the Temple of Light, there is a powerful human civilization on this continent! Yes! You can understand that there is another human country here that we Roland people never knew! They have a considerable degree of civilization! They are humans like us!! So since that is the case, why should we despair?! Look back! Don't just focus on staring at this sea! Look back at the continent behind you!

As long as we muster up the courage to walk deeper into this continent! I firmly believe that we can find that country of humanity! As long as we can find people living on this continent, are we still afraid that we can’t get a boat home?! We have so many people together! We are all from the same place! We are all from the Roland people!! Among us, there are the most elite and powerful sacred knights in the Temple of Light! We also have the magicians with high magic powers!! We have enough power to protect ourselves! What we have to do now is to get rid of those temporary depressions and those temporary confusions! We muster up your courage! We head forward!! Find the humans on this continent! Then we will definitely get the boat!!”

Finally, Lan Lan rolled up her sleeves and shouted loudly: "I am a weak woman, and I am not desperate!! I still have hope in my heart! So, you men and men, are you not as brave as a woman like me?!"

...

Lanlan's words finally calmed everyone down.

Although the fear and confusion in my heart will not all disappear in an instant, at least what this seemingly weak girl said has illuminated a little hope in many people's hearts!

The people finally calmed down, and the roaring and crying sounds disappeared, and most of them cast hope and expectation towards Lan Lan.

At this moment, it seemed as if Lan Lan had become the leader of everyone.

“Great speech.”

Tacitus walked to Lanlan's side, helped her jump off the rotten wood, and then patted Lanlan's shoulder.

The head of the knight looked very calm. He stared into Lanlan's eyes: "My heart is already confused... Lanlan, you did it well just now! You are more qualified to be the leader of this team than I do."

"No, Lord Tacitus..."

"Needless to say." Tacitus shook his head firmly: "My heart has been occupied by hatred and anger, and it is difficult for me to get rational and issue orders before making decisions. And... I have died a few outstanding subordinates! I cannot let them die in vain!"

“You mean…”

Tacitus smiled coldly, tightened the belt on his body, and wiped the sword in his hand, which shone with a cold light.

Lanlan's face immediately sank. She grabbed Tacitus' wrist hard and whispered: "Sir... you can't be impulsive! If you go looking for that monster now, then..."

Speaking of this, Lan Lan hesitated for a moment. She originally planned to say something, but she felt that saying it would make Tacitus think that he looked down on his strength and that he would lose his power under the monster's hands...

So, after a pause, Lan Lan took a deep breath and said slowly: "This team needs you! Only you can suppress it! You are the most powerful combat power among all of us! Now our team is bound to be without you!"

Tacitus's face was calm: "...I know, I understand, too."

He showed patience: "Lan Lan. I understand what you said makes sense. But I am sorry, now, the fire in my heart cannot be extinguished! I can no longer calmly lead this team! My pride, my knight's code, and my heart as the leader of the knight, do not allow me to continue to escape! The night before yesterday, I chose to retreat for Emre's death. Because I understand that there is still a heavy responsibility on my shoulders! But today, the order I gave in my own words has sent three excellent knights. They are all good boys, all loyal believers of the church! They are all dead, and the last one dies in front of me! I can't save his life! Lan Lan, I have a poisonous snake in my heart biting my heart every minute and every second! I have to do something! If I continue to escape like this and continue to retreat, I can't face myself at all! So... I'm sorry..."

At the end, Tacitus's tone became quiet: "I'm sure you have enough wisdom and mind to lead this team! You see, everyone trusts you now and is willing to listen to you... I see your speech just now and your performance over the past few days... It can even be said that Lan Lan, except that you are not as good as me in terms of force, in fact, in terms of wisdom and leadership, you should be more competent in the leader of this team than me. So... I can feel at ease to give everyone to you to lead."

After saying that, Tacitus had already broken free from the blue hand.

Then, he took a step back and looked at Lanlan: "You take the team and head deep into the continent...I'll go to that cliff to see! If I can find that monster, I will kill it with my own hands, and then I will come and catch up with you. If...you don't have to wait for me! If I fail...at least, I will try my best to hold it up and hurt it!! Lanlan, at least, I can't let that monster continue to attack us along the way! I think...this is the greatest contribution I can make to this team!"

Tacitus had turned his head and strode away. He took a few steps, turned around, and shouted loudly at the several sacred knights who were trying to catch up with him: "Go back!!"

The sword in his hand stretched out and shouted decisively: "From now on, you all obey Lan's command! Follow my orders, everyone is not allowed to follow us!!! This is an order!!"

Looking at the complicated-faced subordinates behind him, Tacitus shook his head, took a deep breath, turned his head and strode away, and trotted towards the cliff in the northwest direction...

Lan Lan looked at Tacitus's back and was filled with tears!

She knew in her heart that the "dignity" and "pride" that Tacitus mentioned were actually not the entire reason.

This knight leader knew very well that if no one stood up to deal with the monster, even if everyone moved forward, they would be constantly attacked by the monster.

Tacitus's purpose is actually very simple: he took the initiative to find the monster, kill it... or be killed by it, but at least he had to do his best to severely damage the guy so that it had no spare energy to attack the team again... Try to gain enough time for the team's progress!

...

The cliffs by the sea are wet, and the tides are washed away by year-round scattering, and the sea water splashes, making the air full of water vapor.

The rocks are very slippery and it is very laborious to climb up.

Tacitus inserted his sword behind him, used his hands together, and his body was like a strong monkey, climbing up the cliff quickly.

This is a cliff surrounded by the sea on three sides, taking the shape of a "concave".

When he finally climbed to the top of the cliff, what fell into his eyes was a scene that made his scalp tingle!

Under the cliff under your feet, you can faintly see the sea surface. Under the sea surface, there is a huge shadow!

The shadow is probably less than a few meters below the sea surface. Its outline is shrunk under the sea water, but there are several tentacles exposed on the sea surface, protruding out and swimming slowly.

It seems that the shadow under the sea is bigger than a sea boat.

What made Tacitus even more angry. He clearly saw the boat!

The ship that carried them across the ocean, carrying them through the storm on the sea and sailed for several months. It was on the sea under the cliff... It was silent!

The whole ship broke into three pieces! And the monster that looked like a giant octopus was like a child holding a toy, tightly wrapped the big ship that broke into three pieces in his arms, and the huge tentacles were wrapped around the wreckage of the ship...

Tacitus knew very well... the crew members, captains and people in the church who were left on the ship should have no hope of survival.

A piece of mast fell on the shore. Perhaps it was because of no force that it could fly out and poked heavily into the cracks of the rocks beside the cliff.

Tacitus took a look and saw that there was a terrain next to it. The slope of the cliff was slightly flatter and less steeper.

He gritted his teeth and slowly climbed over, but then he saw the gentle slope where blood was sprayed everywhere, and it had not dried up yet! The washed water droplets like drizzle were integrated...

In the distance, you can also see a broken knight sword and a piece of armor that fell off from the body of an unknown sacrificed subordinate - it was a handguard.

Tacitus' eyes were red, but he forced himself to calm down at this moment.

He took a deep breath, lowered his body, restrained his breath, and moved down along the gentle slope.

When he moved to one-third of the gentle slope... he was finally discovered!

Tacitus didn't know what method the monster had used to discover him. He only saw that the sea water suddenly rolled violently under the water!

Then I saw at least three tentacles rushing out of the sea at the same time and accurately threw them towards the rock where he was hiding!

Tacitus's eyes suddenly contracted!

The courage and anger in his heart were also ignited!
To be continued...
