"Village chief? I remembered." Mendel looked at Feng and Ling and suddenly realized.
"Morgan did say before that there are a pair of twin sisters on the island. The elder sister has become particularly good at eating for some reason and has almost eaten all the animals on the island. It should be you two."
Feng nodded, "Ling and I are indeed from this island. Where is the village chief now?"
"Morgan..." Mendel hesitated, "He has locked himself in the house for a month."
"A month? Wait." Annan interrupted: "I remember you said you haven't eaten for a month. That Morgan also locked himself in the house a month ago. Why is it all related to the month?
What happened during this period?"
A look of horror appeared on Mendel's face: "It's better if you don't know. Thank you for giving us food. Let's leave this island quickly before it gets dark."
"Old man, you are a bit unkind."
Esdeath folded her arms and said dissatisfiedly: "I gave you so much food without asking for any reward. Now I want you to answer a few questions. Can't you even do this?"
"No, I'm afraid that you will be in danger." Mendel said quickly, "You are our savior, and the villagers don't want you to get involved."
"Is that so?" Esdeath looked around and looked at the surrounding townspeople.
"The acting mayor is right!"
"That's right."
"How can we let our benefactors be hurt too?"
When encountering such a famine incident, we cannot leave it alone no matter what.
Looking at the rosy-faced townspeople in front of me, I thought of the scene of them devouring food.
Annan sighed and said to Mendel:
"Dr. Mendel, this is not the first time we have dealt with each other. You know our strength. If you have any difficulties, just tell us."
Mendel took a deep breath and said, "Okay... before I say anything, I want to make it clear that this is the most bizarre thing I have ever seen in my career. You must not be afraid after hearing this."
"Don't worry, we are the navy, we won't be afraid," Annan said.
"Then I will tell you everything I know." Mendel said.
"It all starts with the legend of the island."
"Legend?" Annan asked curiously.
"There is a legend that has been circulating on the island for a long time." Feng said at the side, "When I was a child, I heard the village chief say that every two hundred years, the demons sleeping underground will wake up and they will crawl out of the soil at night.
Come out and eat all the living things on the ground. They will continue to sleep until all the living things are gone."
"In order to help the people on the island resist evil spirits, God gave the islanders some seeds, and the plants grown from these seeds can resist these evil spirits. So the ancestors relied on these plants to successfully resist the evil spirits underground."
Mendel nodded, "Yes, Morgan was shipwrecked and lived on Plant Island. He established himself on the island with his knowledge, became the head of a village at that time, and adopted the twins." p>
"With his efforts, Plant Island got in touch with the outside world and gradually turned into a small trade supply point."
"Plant Island gradually became prosperous, and several villages merged into a small town. Morgan naturally became the mayor of the town. Morgan discovered this legend while sorting out ancient books on the island."
"He asked for some from the elders who kept these seeds on the island and began to study them. He called these plants specialized plants, but strangely, these plants would wither immediately once they left Plant Island."
"I came to Plant Island a month and a half ago. Morgan invited me to visit the specialized plants he has studied for many years. By the way, you are not the aborigines of this island, and you were not visited by those plants on the way here.
Attack?"
"We did encounter an attack." Annan thought of those large peas and told Mendel about his experiences on the road.
"That is the weakest type of specialized plants. Don't underestimate these peas. They are much more powerful than the inferior cannons on the pirate ships." Mendel said.
"With my assistance, Morgan's experiments on specialized plants progressed rapidly, and we soon entered the artificial planting stage."
"During this period, the specialized plants repelled several pirate attacks. Morgan and I counted the days, and the day when the devil appeared was coming soon."
"We stored food and closed the port, just waiting for the devil to appear."
"But before the devil came, Morgan suddenly changed his temperament. He locked himself in the house, and we couldn't persuade him to come out."
"At this moment, the devil also emerged from the ground."
"Previous records showed that these demons would only rage for half a month at most, so we only stored food for one month."
"But what I didn't expect were those specialized plants."
"These demonic monsters only come out at night, and the specialized plants will run out of energy halfway through their work at night."
According to historical records, the specialized plants would absorb these demon corpses as energy, but for some reason, those demon corpses were stolen by no one. The specialized plants collapsed together without the demon corpses as nutrients. Originally, Moore
The roots know how to solve it, but they are unwilling to come out. We have no choice but to use the food in the granary to provide nutrients for these plants."
"We have been hungry for a month, and the devil has not shown any signs of retreating underground. If it hadn't been for your arrival, we really don't know what we would have done."
"Devils that came down from the ground, specialized plants, stolen demon corpses...the little Plant Island actually integrates so many things." Annan touched his chin, "I don't know why, it feels familiar."<
/p>
"That means those demons will come again tonight." Esdeath became interested, "I want to see how powerful these underground demons are."
"It's still some time before dark, let's go see Morgan first," Annan said.
Several people were led by Mendel to Morgan's residence.
When Annan opened the door, he saw a sloppy man wearing a pan on his head.
It feels like...
"Waibibabu?"
The sloppy man said something incomprehensible to everyone.
"Way than crooked."
Mendel replied with something equally incomprehensible.
“are you good malaysia.”
………………
"Hello, Navy, I'm Morgan."
After a brief exchange with Mendel, Morgan sat on the sofa and spoke lazily to a few people.
"Thank you for saving everyone."
"I won't say any more pleasantries."
Annan got it straight and asked: "What's going on with those demons? Why haven't they returned underground after a month? Why are you unwilling to go out to solve those problems even if everyone begs you? Also, what is the pan you are carrying on your head?"
What do you mean?"
"Ah, Major Annan. You have a lot of questions. Let me answer them slowly."
Morgan said slowly.
"The reason I carry a pan is because those demons only eat human brains. Wearing a pan can protect my head after the town is captured."
