The night has completely passed, and a new day has arrived.
Colin's attention gradually shifted from himself to the sea in the direction of Pahama Island.
'I don't know what happened to Anna and the others.'
As the sun gradually rose, Colin's indifferent worries gradually emerged in his heart.
The island of Pahama worships the goddess of night and blood.
Every day at the darkest hour before dawn, all believers on the island go to the church to start the first prayer of the day.
The plan of Anna and the others is to go directly to Lean's residence after praying and obtain the incomplete lightning pendant.
Based on this calculation, now is almost the time to take action.
"It turns out it's already dawn..."
Ant, the young man beside him, suddenly stood up.
He looked in the direction of Pahama Island with a worried look on his face.
Colin didn't answer, just paused and continued to practice the Yin Guang breathing technique.
"Lean's residence is on Baiwu Street, and he has a maid.
But I also know Sister Anna and the others, so as long as they are careful, everything will go smoothly..." Young Ant said to himself.
Swish.
Slowly cutting through the air with his right hand and stepping out with his left foot, Colin practiced the Yin Guang breathing method meticulously.
The heat flow in the body is gradually transformed and absorbed, the magic sea in the chest slowly but continuously increases in quality, and the blood is filled again, reaching the limit.
However, the blood energy cannot grow any more and cannot break the limit.
'Perhaps, we have to wait until Yin Guang's breathing method breaks through the limit again?'
Colin secretly speculated and ignored Ant's words.
In fact, ever since he knew how to strengthen the foundation of the body, a suspicion emerged in his mind——
The Knight's Breathing Technique...perhaps after breaking the limit several times, or breaking it again, it can also be used as a method unique to him to strengthen the foundation of the body!
The end of the knight's road...maybe not just the great knight!
On the other side, Ant saw that Colin didn't stop him, so he continued talking.
"As Sister Anna said, she only needs to pretend to be Lean and call her over, and I'm afraid she can successfully enter Lean's room.
And once you get inside, you only need to deal with the maid, and there will be no obstacles."
He looked up at the sky.
“After the pre-dawn prayer, the next prayer is at twelve o’clock at noon when the sun is at its strongest…
And ordinary believers like the maid will only be warned if they have not meditated for at least three days."
Colin suddenly frowned and asked in a deep voice:
"Are all believers going to be warned if they don't meditate?"
Ant was slightly startled and quickly added:
"Only believers who are fixed on the island and cannot leave the island will do this!
Generally speaking, monks like Lean and fishermen like us will not be under the jurisdiction of anyone...
After all, on the sea, if we don’t meditate on time, the gods will not continue to protect us.”
"So, Lord Leonard, you don't have to worry about us being exposed because we didn't meditate... Well, you don't have to worry about being exposed because of Lean's death.
Because only believers who have reached the priest level will be paid attention to by the goddess."
Colin nodded slightly, turned his head and glanced in the direction of Pahama Island, and said calmly:
"We can wait until 11:30 noon at most... If Anna and I haven't come by then, we won't wait any longer. I will take you forward and try to directly pass through the gods' defense line and return to the wizard's realm."
"...Sir Leonard!"
The young Ant was startled for a moment, then subconsciously shouted.
"I can't take such a risk, and neither can you, Ant."
Colin glanced at him and said calmly.
Ant's lips moved, as if he wanted to say something more, but in the end he returned to silence.
'You are the only hope for the Barcelona family.'
He looked at the empty blue sea, and suddenly regretted that he had spoken about the teleportation array, causing Sister Anna and Old Jack to take risks.
"This star really wants to retire"
Otherwise, Sister Anna and Old Jack are just ordinary people, not wizards. Although they cannot say how free or good they live in a place ruled by gods.
But if nothing unexpected happens, at least they can still be alive...
Ant's mood couldn't help but become depressed, and the heavy pressure almost made him closely link his choice with the possible death of Anna and Anna.
'I...am the murderer who caused the death of Sister Anna and Old Jack?'
His face became paler and paler, and his body began to tremble slightly.
"Calm your mind!"
At this moment, Colin on the side noticed something strange about Ant and shouted in a deep voice.
"Leonard...Your Excellency..."
As if he was suddenly awakened, Ant trembled all over and reacted. He panted slightly and muttered to himself.
"Did I just... almost become alienated and fall?"
"You haven't meditated for a long time. After meditating last night, your spirit is particularly sensitive. Please pay more attention."
Now as a first-level wizard, Colin could see Ant's specific situation at a glance, and he opened his mouth to remind him.
On the vast sea, especially in sea areas controlled by gods, there will be significantly more dirty words in the air than in other places, so special attention needs to be paid to the risk of alienation and corruption.
"Yeah." Ant nodded with a clear heart.
The next second, he seemed to see something out of the corner of his eye. He turned his head and looked at the sea in the distance, and suddenly shouted in surprise:
"Sir Leonard, Sister Anna and the others are back!"
Colin's movements suddenly stopped, and he quickly turned his head to follow Ant's gaze.
In the distance of his field of vision, a familiar sloop appeared. With his strong eyesight, he could clearly see the two familiar figures on the sailboat——
It was Anna and Old Jack!
"Come with me."
Colin felt slightly relieved. He turned to look at Ant and gave instructions.
Using the soaring and diving technique, he and Ant jumped off the edge of the reef, got into the sea, and began to approach the sloop Anna and the two were riding on.
He did not tell Anna and Anna exactly where he would be waiting for them, but only gave a general direction, so he needed to go over and pick them up.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Of course, before responding, he also needs to check whether there is a little tail behind Anna and the other two.
With the combination of the invisible shadow and the flying and diving technique, he was like a mysterious swimming fish, with only an incomprehensible outline visible.
After using it during this period of time, he has pushed the apprentice-level witchcraft of Invisible Shadow to its limit again.
The effect of using it has also been somewhat enhanced.
At the same time, on the sloop.
As they moved away from the Pahama Island, the sad expressions on Anna and Old Jack's faces gradually disappeared, replaced by uncontrollable surprise.
The process of obtaining the Lightning Pendant was easier than they imagined.
That Lien's maid was just a frail ordinary woman. In front of Old Jack, who was a great knight, trying to deal with her was as simple as sweeping away the dust.
The whole process took less than a second and caused almost no additional movement. Old Jack simply and neatly put her into eternal sleep.
Later, when Old Jack was disposing of the body, Anna easily found the lightning pendant that her father had been wearing in the desk drawer of Lean's bedroom...
All in all, everything went very smoothly without any surprises!
"I don't know where the wizard will be waiting for us..." Old Jack suddenly whispered.
Anna raised her eyes and looked around, and lowered her voice and said:
"Perhaps they are already around, just checking to see if there are any little tails following us... they didn't show up."
Old Jack nodded.
Although he didn't think there would be pursuers behind him, Colin didn't know their specific situation on the island, so he naturally needed to make sure.
The two waited quietly and continued sailing in the direction they had agreed upon before.
But time passed quickly, and more than two hours passed in the blink of an eye.
Anna and the two had already sailed to the place where the fishing boat sank yesterday, but they still did not wait for Colin's figure to appear.
"Miss Anna, are we...?" Old Jack asked in a low voice, looking at Anna under the gray sail.
"Sail as planned." Anna replied after a moment of silence.
According to their previous agreement with Colin, if Colin did not come to rescue them after sailing to the place where the fishing boat sank, they would change their route and head towards the island with the teleportation array.
"Yes." Old Jack nodded in agreement, stood up and adjusted the sail behind him.
Wow.
The sea breeze blew in, blowing up the gray-white sails, and also caused the boat to gradually shift to the left and forward.
The boat continued to sail, but the atmosphere on board was obviously not as happy as before.
A haze enveloped Anna and Old Jack.
"Sister Anna!"
But at this moment, an unexpected sound came from a piece of brown wood board not far ahead.
"Ant?!"
Anna followed the sound and murmured in shock.
On the fragment of wood, it turned out to be his brother Ant!
They adjusted the sails and sailed quickly to Ant floating on the sea.
"Get on the boat quickly." Old Jack pulled Ant onto the boat.
"Ante, why are you here? That..." Anna was about to ask subconsciously.
"Sister Anna, the fishing boat sank. I was lucky enough to survive by grabbing a fragment of the deck."
But Ant at the side suddenly interrupted her and hugged her with a somewhat excited expression.
Then he whispered in Anna's ear like a mosquito:
"Wizard Leonard discovered something unusual. There may be a little tail behind you."
Anna's vagina shrank suddenly, and then quickly changed to an excited look, slapping Ant on the back and loudly saying:
"It's good to survive, it's good to survive..."
When Old Jack saw this scene, he was puzzled, but he also vaguely guessed it. He used the great knight's ability to control the body to squeeze out a few tears, then raised his arm to wipe them away, and patted Ant.
shoulders.
In this way, the three of them reunited excitedly for a moment, and then sat down together facing each other.
"Dad, where are we going now?" Anna smoothed her hair and asked loudly, as if she was still in an excited mood, her voice was a little loud.
"Keep going, I keep a lot of divine coins on a certain island. That is the capital for our comeback!" Old Jack also continued loudly.
This was the wizard's order that Ant revealed during their embrace just now.
Although I don't know why this is the case, the wizard must have his own considerations. The most important thing to do at this moment is to obey the order and not think too much.
So the three of them controlled the boat and continued to sail forward.
"Sister Anna, is everything going well on the island? Why is there a little tail following you?"
During the ongoing conversation, Ant suddenly interjected quietly and quietly.
His expression didn't change at all. From the outside, it looked like he was having an ordinary conversation with Anna.
"Everything went well, and I didn't meet anyone. Old Jack didn't make any noise when he solved the maid." Anna smiled and nodded, "And to be on the safe side, we didn't leave the maid alive, not even the body.
It’s been taken care of.”
"As for the lightning pendant... it is placed in the most conspicuous drawer of Lean's bedroom. It was even opened slightly and not closed tightly, so it was easy to find it."
"It can be said that except for the lightning pendant, nothing is missing in Lean's house, and nothing else has any trace of being moved."
Ant was slightly startled that it went so smoothly.
smoothly……
With a flash of inspiration, his hair suddenly stood up as he thought of a possibility——
I got the lightning pendant so smoothly...
Is it because someone went out of their way to make this process smooth and easy?
Someone is using this lightning pendant to fish?
Once his thoughts opened up, more ideas and information suddenly appeared in his mind.
Lean...the reason why this ordinary gangster became a monk was because he had an inexplicable relationship with a priest named Humphrey.
Could it be that the person fishing behind the scenes was Humphrey?
Although there was no reason for this speculation, Ant's deep intuition told him that this was probably the correct answer.
He suppressed the anxiety in his heart that he wanted to convey this information to Colin, controlled his expression, and told Anna and others this speculation first.
And the other side.
Under the sea not far away, Colin followed the boat quietly.
From time to time, his peripheral vision would scan the air about a hundred meters directly behind the boat.
There, under the super-sensory field of vision, a figure with a faint light all over his body was quietly following Anna and the others.
no doubt--
The shadowy figure must be a believer in the gods. This figure obviously did not expect that there would be an official wizard peeking in the secret, and the disguise on the body was very rough.
However, judging from the intensity of the ghostly light on his body, he should be at least a priest.
Withdrawing his gaze, Colin continued sailing, waiting for the opportunity.
This was a decision he made after comprehensive consideration.
If the priest came for Anna and the two, a battle would be inevitable.
What he needs to do most is to escape quickly after taking care of the priest.
After all, in the sea controlled by the gods, the death of a priest will definitely be noticed by the gods.
Therefore, it is necessary to get close to the deserted island where the teleportation array may exist, and it is even necessary to wait until the priest takes the initiative to show up and make sure that there are no more believers around... before he takes action, it is most reasonable.
As for the worst case scenario - the priest behind it has notified other believers, and there are more believers hiding in the dark...
