In a daze, Sunao saw his sister, the family heirloom jade that he used as the registration fee for the competition, and the red earth that gave birth to him...
For no apparent reason, a glimmer of enlightenment arose in his heart.
Can not go back.
I do not know how long it has been.
Suddenly, a warm hand reached into the water and lifted Sunao up.
real world.
Sand man opened his eyes suddenly!
"You're awake." Jon took back the substitute and raised a gentle smile on his lips, "The operation was very successful. From now on, you will live as a girl."
Sunao:......?!
Confused.
stunned.
Shock.
Sunao shivered and subconsciously touched somewhere.
The familiar feeling came from the palm of his hand, and he was sure of it.
Okay, okay, the baby is still there~
"I'm just joking with you, are you so nervous?" Jon chuckled.
Sand Man hurriedly got up from the ground and stared at Jon warily.
After pondering for a moment, he asked: "...Did you save me?"
"Of course, isn't this obvious?" Jon looked up and down Sand Man, "Tell me, how should you repay me?"
Sand Man couldn't help but be speechless.
He clearly remembered that he was penetrated by the strange rays sprayed by Diego, but now there was no scar left.
Could it be that everything before was just an illusion?
Seeing Sand Man's expression of being confused about the situation, Jon stretched out his right hand and condensed a dark red spine, which was the "saint's body" that countless people dreamed of!
"Do you want it? I can give it to you." Jon said calmly, "Take this bone, then leave and do what you want to do."
"you!"
There was a look of disbelief on Sandao's face.
The extremely precious "remains of the saint" can be given as long as you ask?!
Also, isn’t this sacred bone completely fused with Jon Joestar?
There were so many doubts that Sunao didn't dare to take action against the "saint's body".
When Jon saw it, he threw the holy bones on the ground and said, "I put the things here, do you want them if you like them?"
Sand Man:!!!
Almost subconsciously, he hurriedly picked up the "saint's body".
He raised his head and found that Jon had already walked away.
"Jon Joestar, what exactly are you..." Sand Man's eyes were extremely complicated.
At this moment, the sacred bone in his hand emitted bursts of warmth, and the transparent filaments seemed to be alive, scrambling to penetrate into Sand Man's body.
Sand Man cried out in pain.
The moment he knelt down on one knee, four elements gathered around him, like loyal guards guarding the king.
"Substitute...have I become a substitute messenger..." After muttering, Sunao tried to call out his substitute.
In an instant, a figure wearing a feather mask appeared quietly.
Sunao breathed a sigh of relief.
Sure enough, I have successfully moved towards transcendence!
only......
Thinking of the mysterious Jon Joestar and the 'Bone Stealer' Diego Brando, he couldn't be happier.
"Do you want to keep running? Or do you want revenge or repay a favor?"
Looking at the stars in the sky, Sand Man fell into deep thought.
He was recalling why he came to participate in the S.B.R competition in the first place.
‘family land’
By the way, I came to participate in this competition to preserve my ‘tribe land’!
With his thoughts clear, Sand Man took a deep breath.
go home.
Whether it's conspiracy or hatred, it has nothing to do with me.
He is just a homesick wanderer, a "fool" who tries to block the trend of history.
The Bizarre Adventure of Indian Player ‘Sand Man’
--it's over.
...
...
Wilderness camp.
"White teeth (not good)!"
When Johnny woke up, he climbed back into the tent as soon as possible.
After a lot of searching, I still couldn't find the "remains of the saint".
Jero said with an ugly expression: "It must be Diego and Sunao who did it. Damn it, after running together for thousands of kilometers, I actually regarded the two of them as one of my own!"
On the other side, Lucy looked a little overwhelmed.
In just one night, the precious "saint's body" was stolen, and she couldn't help but start to wonder whether Johnny Joestar and the others were trustworthy.
"What does it matter? Just throw it away. It's not a good thing." Jon yawned and said casually.
As soon as he said this, he attracted the attention of Johnny and others.
Jon was stunned for a moment and spread his hands, "I'm right, this bone was stolen by Diego. It can also help us divert the president's firepower."
Em.....
It seems to make some sense.
Johnny scratched his hair in annoyance, "I've already told you that Diego Brando can't be trusted!"
Hearing this, Jero scratched his face in embarrassment.
Ever since Diego took the initiative to shield him from the wind in the final sprint of "STAGE 3", he has accepted Diego. Now that he thinks about it, he is still too young.
"Well, now that it has happened, there is no point in regretting it." Jon clapped his hands, "Having said that, we should be glad that they did not poison us yesterday, otherwise, we would not be able to see the sun today.
Definitely."
From what you say, I have to thank these two idiots Diego and Sando.
Johnny was so angry that he couldn't speak.
Jero helped: "Jon is right. Although Diego and the others stole a piece of the 'saint's body', it does no harm to the whole. You, Jon, and Lucy, we still have some here."
A total of three 'chosen ones'!"
Johnny thought about it.
Indeed, what Jon and Jero said makes sense.
It's just that he still feels unhappy if he doesn't vent his anger!
Seeing this, Jon suggested: "Let's set off quickly and work hard, maybe we can catch up with Diego and the others."
Johnny nodded repeatedly.
At this time, Lucy raised her hand weakly, "Well...if those two people stole the holy bones and ran away, where would we go to find them?"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Johnny:...
Jero:......
"Lucy-chan~" Jon waved to Lucy.
Meeting the other person's eyes, Lucy subconsciously shrank her neck, "What...what are you doing?"
"When men are talking, women and children should not interrupt. You have to remember that this is common sense." Jon said word by word.
"oh."
People under the eaves have to bow their heads.
Lucy pinched the corner of her clothes in frustration.
After getting Stephen Steele’s LOLI wife, Jon said: “No matter whether Diego and Sando withdraw from the competition or not, we are going to New York after all, and now is not the time to care about gains and losses.
Let’s go, it’s time to head to the end of the stage.”
After a conversation, Johnny and Jello calmed down.
Compared to Diego Brando, President Fanny Valentine is their real enemy.
According to the 'stigma', the next marked location contains the ears and right hand of the 'saint's body'.
In other words, they have no time to waste!
...
...
Because Lucy, an amateur, was holding them back, the group's speed was really not that fast.
After running for 12 days, the four of them arrived in Chicago and completed "STAGE 5".
Jero, who had won the section in each of the first four stages, felt very unhappy.
But there is no way.
As a gentleman and a man, he would never let a 'weak woman' like Lucy fend for herself in the wild.
Seeing his companion's anxiety, Jonny comforted him: "It's okay, Jero. Although we failed to enter the top 30 in "STAGE 5", we had high points in the previous stages and our advantage in the standings is still obvious.
Moreover, Diego Brando is ranked ahead of us, which shows that he has not given up on the competition, which is good news.”
"Yeah." Jero lowered the brim of his hat.
Lucy felt a little guilty. In terms of riding skills and physical strength, she was indeed far behind these grown men.
If their abilities are never improved, these people may abandon themselves...
When she thought of this terrible fact, she felt particularly insecure.
Amidst the panic of the girl (wife), a group of four people started the "STAGE 6" race.
As a result, they didn't go far when they encountered a rare blizzard!
As a last resort, the four people could only set up tents in the wild to resist the severe cold.
"It's really unlucky. We encountered heavy rain outside Kahn City, and we encountered heavy snow just after leaving Chicago." Jero lay in the tent in frustration and said angrily: "Do you think God is hindering me?
"
"Then you must be overthinking. God has no time to pay attention to you." Jon said casually while flipping through the novel he bought from somewhere.
Lucy quietly glanced at the cover, and there were three big characters in antique style - "Lolita"
"A name I've never heard of." She withdrew her gaze and returned her attention to the map at hand.
According to the 'stigma', they were less than five kilometers away from the 'saint's remains'!
It's a pity that in such bad weather, if you don't pay attention, you will lose your way. They can only wait for the wind and snow to stop before they can continue on the road.
Just thinking about it.
Jero suddenly sat up and said solemnly: "Someone is approaching us!"
Lucy's expression froze.
Seven or eight minutes later, Hurt Penz on horseback came outside the tent and said loudly: "Is there anyone there?"
This sound...
Why does it sound familiar?
Jero blinked and looked at Johnny, who also reacted.
The two nodded understandingly.
"Hello?" Hurt Penz, who was frozen like a dog, shouted again.
Jero responded and said with a smile: "Hi~"
Hurt Penz:......
Good guy, the ghost is still here, right?
Why is it you again?
She instinctively wanted to fight with Jero, but thinking of the difficult Jonny Joestar and the mysterious Jon Joestar, the Vatican nun who participated in the competition to atone for her sins decisively gave up the idea of using force.
"Excuse me, farewell."
After saying that, Hurt Penz pulled the reins without looking back.
Jero shouted: "Hey, don't leave, come in and get warm."
Hurt Panz pretended that he couldn't hear him and quickly disappeared among the white snow.
Jero pouted.
Such good intentions are not rewarded.
Not to mention the grumbling Jero.
Hurt Penz rode forward alone for a while, but finally couldn't hold on any longer and wanted to find a place with leeward wind to rest for a while.
Not to mention, she really found her
——It was a very thick old tree, and there was a very conspicuous hole in the tree.
Hetpanz was overjoyed.
After tying up the horse, she crawled and jumped into the tree hole.
Unexpectedly, I accidentally dropped the dry food I carried with me into the spring under the big tree.
"Tsk." Hurt Panz felt a little pity.
However, she didn't think much about it.
Enter the tree hole.
Hurt Penz glanced left and right, and was suddenly dumbfounded.
Because this place is not as shabby and dark as she imagined, but is full of 'breath of life' everywhere.
Murals, dolls, various herbs...
Everything you need.
Sitting in the middle of the tree hole was a little girl with black hair.
He is almost ten years old and has a sweet appearance.
Hurt Penz took out the 'Frost Traveler' and lowered his voice: "Little girl, why are you alone in a place like this?"
The little girl didn't talk to her, she just concentrated on playing with the weird straw man doll, "...you have to listen to your mother."
Hurt Penz's scalp felt numb and he asked again, "Little girl, I'm talking to you, why are you alone in a place like this?"
The little girl moved her ears, then looked in the direction of Hurt Penz belatedly, and said in horror: "Who? Who is there!"
Hurt Penz was startled, and hurriedly retreated to the tree hole, and said sternly, "I'm warning you, don't come over!"
The little girl stared at Hurt Penz with dull eyes, and suddenly the conversation changed, "Welcome, my name is Sugar Manden, and the name of this doll is Cindy. Please take care of me when we meet you for the first time."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Hurt Panz was confused.
At this time, the little girl who called herself 'Hugh Manden' turned around and took out many things from the wooden box behind her, "By the way, I forgot to ask you, what did you fall into the water just now?
Is it a meatless sandwich or a luxurious meal?"
Hurt Panz's eyes widened.
Eh?
Wait a moment!
What situation is this?
Seeing that Hurt Penz was silent, the little girl asked again: "Second question, was it the wet soil on the soles of your shoes that you just fell into the water, or this pile of sand gold?"
Hurt Panz became more and more cautious.
After a long while, she said in a deep voice: "What I dropped was a sandwich without meat and wet soil on the soles of my shoes."
"Well! It's so honest." Hugo Manden looked very happy, "In that case, I will give you all the luxurious dinner and this pile of sand gold."
Hurt Penz stared at the girl warily and asked: "If...I mean if, I didn't tell the truth, what would you do?"
"Really, I'm not a man-eating monster, so of course nothing will happen to me." Hugo Manden waved his hand.
Hurt Penz felt slightly relieved.
Immediately afterwards, Hugo Manden said: "It's just that these children..."
She pointed to the thorns that appeared around her at some point, "...these children will pierce your tongue, stick into your throat, and then crush your internal organs and kill you."
Hearing this, Hurt Panz broke into a cold sweat.
What a risk!
no.
It's not advisable to stay here for long, so we'd better evacuate first.
Having made up his mind, Hurt Panz didn't say a word and just got out of the tree hole.
Hugo Manden said hurriedly: "Mom and Dad taught me to tell the truth, so you must remember that you must use up all the things you get, otherwise, something bad will happen."
