The Voyage of Exchange——Rebirth from the Dead Chapter 15 Land of Ownership
"Oh... it will be like this..." Fageni looked back.
"Ah...is this what's inside this tree?" Karin almost fell down.
"It should be because it has no soul. If a tree has no soul, it will be filled with sand?" Fageni began to mutter.
"Are these trees dead?" Karin tried to poke other "coconut trees" or small flowers and grass with his fingers. But all the plants were rotten inside.
"Speaking of which, I heard someone talking in my head while I was sleeping. Could it be something weird?" Moengnan walked back after passing the message, and took a look to see if there was any high ground nearby. "
It's a bit troublesome to go around the edge, I don't know how big it is."
"Really? I thought I was dreaming about something." Fageni inadvertently clenched the knife with his right hand.
"What a coincidence. The island we fell into the sea and was washed up by the waves is still such a weird place. We were just hit by the evil god incarnate and entered the weird island again." Fageni chuckled lightly and returned to Moenge's side to respond.
What he said just now: "This is so weird, if you go into the woods rashly, something will happen."
"Have our mercenary group been cursed by something? They are even more deadly than I was back then." Moengnan touched some sand and put it in his mouth and tasted it. He said something about it.
"It's better to be more cautious and not go to the woods." Fageni said the most fishy thing without thinking.
"Anyway, it's better to be careful. Should we go to the beach first or the center of the island?" Karin ignored him.
"Or, why don't I just go up and cut down the trees so that I don't have to walk through the forest?" Fageni thought of an idea and asked other people for their opinions.
"Think about the fishmen, don't be impulsive." Moengnan pretended to be sincere. "But the good news is that all the trees here are like this, which means there are no big beasts, which is a good thing."
"I don't know if there is anything else here, we'd better hide ourselves." Carlin said.
"Why don't you agree? If you agree, I will let you chop it off." Fageni said angrily.
"Go, I won't do it, but I think we should go into the forest. There will be nothing to cover us on the beach." Moengnan took a few steps.
"You want to go in, that's fine." Carlin looked at Chester, but the child looked at the sea in confusion. "In that case, let's go into the woods."
"Mo Nan, don't you have a unique skill of invisibility? Go explore the road quickly, we will follow behind." The invisibility of Fageni's equipment is completely different from that of Moenge. Now basically everyone can see it.
.
Now that Karin was silent, he shook his ears and began to pay attention to the movements around him. He also looked at the ground for any traces of other biological activities.
Then Moeng Nan covered his body and walked at the front to explore the path. Soon, several people discovered that as they walked further, they turned into tall trees like the rainforest that Alexander had talked about. You should be able to see the red color inside the broken surface of the wood.
Brown, while the leaves are yellowish green. Unlike those branches in the rainforest that are densely leafed, they are bare. However, the desertification of these trees is more serious, and some of the leaves have already appeared.
Anyway, no souls except for a few people were seen by Moengnan. However, under Karin's perception, he discovered some monkey skeletons that had not completely transformed into sand.
From the bones of these monkeys, it is not possible to tell what they were doing during their lifetimes. Whether there are signs of struggle or anything like that cannot be analyzed. They are all fragmented by partial desertification and are not complete skeletons.
The soil on the ground now is also desertified soil, with a high sand content. "What kind of monsters are there in this sea?" Fageni wondered whether the sea under his feet was already full of gods.
"What a wonderful place, ah. There is not a single soul. We are probably on the right track." Moeng Nan said in the telepathic call.
"Animals are also affected." Carlin shook his head.
"Regardless of whether it's a good place or a bad place, we are definitely going to the place where there is trouble. Let's continue?" Moeng Nan asked.
"Okay, there seems to be no reaction at the moment, let's move on." Karin nodded.
Fageni touched the amulet around his neck. "Let's go further and take a look. Considering that Dinefel is very weak now, we may not be able to defeat him in a fight. Let's walk slower."
"Running is all that matters. I like running the most." Moengnan continued to move forward.
After walking for about a quarter of an hour, several people immediately felt a strong mental force and began to forcibly establish a spiritual link in their minds. Although spiritual link is generally a harmless communication ability, it also means that sometimes spiritual link can be used
It delivers some hints and even aggressive psychic shocks. However, Dinefel was not connected, and I don’t know why. It may be that the violent psychic energy incapacitated it.
"Grandma, something happened." Fageni pressed her left temple with her hand.
"Hey, brothers, can you feel it? There is something that wants to connect our minds." Moeng Nan put his fingers into his skull and touched it.
"Someone...something wants to talk to us, and I can't refuse it." Fageni said in a deep voice.
"Maybe it's a person who wants to take us to a concert." Moeng Nan was still heartless.
[Hello, we encountered a storm and drifted all the way here. Please forgive me if I have offended you. Can you tell us where this is?] Karin began to chant silently in his heart.
"Welcome to my island, let me see. Two humans, one skeleton from the underworld - skeleton fighters are really rare. A demi-human who shows semi-atavistic characteristics and can put away some demi-human characteristics,
It is also accompanied by the fibrosis of the harmless symbiotic Muscle Plant. The last one is even more interesting, similar to the existence of a lich, but retains the original head and relies on extreme emotions to survive, but suppresses the emotions in some way, and I have never heard of it.
I have never seen anyone master the power of the void in the astral world."
The mind link cannot detect the other party's thoughts. Considering that Fageni also said in his heart: "Who are you and what do you want us to do?" He tried to talk to the thing, and at the same time he glanced at Dinefee.
Well, it seems that he is the only one who can be right in the end?
"Powerful and hospitable master, I personally don't mind visiting. Maybe we disturbed others." Seeing that Chester had entered a state of stress reaction, Ma Liao's eyes began to change and he was confused. And since he couldn't resist,
He thought he might as well go there honestly.
"I didn't hear anything the other side said, but he should be able to hear me chatting in our communication." Moeng Nan, who voluntarily quit the link and became independent, was very bored.
"He was sighing. He seemed to be very aware of our capabilities, or very interested." Carlin explained to Moeng Nan.
"It's a good thing that you didn't come up and beat us to death." Fageni shrugged.
"No one has ever set foot in my research institute, but I welcome people to visit. Besides, I think we might be able to negotiate a business deal." The other party spoke again.
"The bad luck is over, brothers, it's great." After Fageni relayed it, Moengnan was overjoyed.
"The research institute should be in the center of this deserted forest?" After relaying the information, Fageni observed the surroundings vigilantly.
"If you are willing, please give me directions." Kalin added. Soon the other party sent a three-dimensional map through the spiritual link, including how to enter the dungeon after arriving at the center of the island and avoid various traps to reach the research institute.
.This map includes several treasure rooms and libraries, and there are even many places where skeleton warriors are stationed.
Then the spiritual link was closed, and the other party sent a weak mental attack to Moeng Nan. "Oh, the master here has a bad temper." He held his head and cried (no).
[This is so amazing.] Kalin silently sighed at the other party's magical power, and then followed the map's guidance and walked towards the center of the island. "Shall we go?" The world is a big place, and there are many strong people. Kalin has always been good at showing weakness.
It does not matter.
"Why did we get involved in this kind of thing? We are really in trouble." Fageni glanced at Dinefel suspiciously. "It's strange that such people like to take root underground." He also followed the instructions.
The map given by that thing goes towards the center.
"What did he say, inviting us to visit his home?" Moengnan waited for a moment. Seeing that Chester had exited the stress state, he asked blankly, "What happened?" Then he followed.
"To put it simply, we came to an island with a master, and he invited us to be his guests." Carlin explained to Chester and then looked at Moeng Nan. "Yes, I think he doesn't have any other ideas.
, "Did he just warn you?"
"It's nothing, it's just a daily walk on the edge of life and death," Fageni walked beside Chester for a while and pulled him along, widening the distance between him and Dinefel.
"It's true. He just hit me. Although it wasn't very strong, it was pretty good. I guess he was at least better than us. Maybe he was a little unhappy because I didn't connect with him. If you say that, be careful.
Come here, too." Moeng Nan is used to this kind of thing, but the main reason is that he is too incompetent, for example, he is now imitating Nina in speaking.
"Anyway, it wouldn't be wrong to go and have a look." After all, even in its heyday, Dinefel couldn't drag these people away.
"Uncle Fageni, why are you pulling me? I can walk on my own." Only then did Chester realize that Fageni was taking care of his children like an old father.
"I saw that you were so stupid that you hadn't come back to your senses, so I thought you were deceived." Fageni let go of his hand.
On the other side, time moved forward slightly, and Alexander was the first to wake up from the messy cabin where there was still a lot of sea water. Noel, Ryan, Sophia, Zate, Shiz, Gabru, Nina and two skeleton pirates fell down.
Near her, some algae were still hanging on the long nose of the mask on Sophia's face.
