"Jemiel, there are no large marine creatures near this island."
The tone of the stone golem Romit sounded a little disappointed, but the only three holes on his face could not express changes in his expression.
"Oh, I know." The hopeful light in Jamil's eyes disappeared. He sat on the rock, his arms wrapped around his knees, and his chin rested on his knees. After all, this was not the first time.
Without the boat, Jamil, who is not yet 15 years old this year, cannot swim to a nearby island relying only on his own physical strength. The "Reader" potion has no bonus to physical strength. He does not carry any sealed objects and has no water.
Breathing spell.
The only feasible way is for Romit to find a medium-to-large marine creature, tame it with the influence of the "Stone of Life" in his body, and then leave the island with Jamil. But now, after three days of searching, only
There are little guys like fish, shrimps, shells and crabs, and not even a big fish over one meter has been found.
The length of the stone golem Romit's legs is less than one-third of its height, but its height of nearly 3.5 meters makes its legs much longer than a normal adult male, but the swing frequency is very slow. Although it
It's huge in size, but it lands lightly and silently.
It stretched out its long rocky arms and placed two or three fish in front of Jamil, with a gentle and kind voice:
"Don't worry, I'll go further next time to find it."
"No, don't leave this island too far." Jamil shook his head and looked at the struggling fish, "This should be the place where the indigenous people secretly worship the 'Poseidon' Kavitua.
The aura of Tuva is on this island, and those large marine creatures will not come near here."
"Kavituwa? Is that the big sea serpent?"
"Yes, it should be the sea snake that the tyrant's believers drove away. I heard someone say when I was in Bayam that before being completely colonized, the indigenous people of the Rhoside Islands had always believed in the 'sea god' Kavituva, and thought that this was a normal thing.
Spirits in the form of giant sea serpents guard all the islands here, preventing them from being swallowed up by earthquakes and tsunamis.
The believers of the Tyrant have been destroying the faith of Kavitua, but without killing it, it is difficult for its followers to give up the sacrifice. It seems that in order to escape the threat of the Tyrant Church, those people went to this uninhabited island to perform sacrifices.
.”
He and Romit discovered some traces of primitive sacrifices yesterday, and there were spiritual remnants on the simple and rough altar. Based on the symbols and power on it, Jamil easily identified that this was the path to the "Sailor"
Of high-sequence extraordinary beings.
A rather primitive and crude living sacrifice, the "Sailor" channel has high-sequence power. No matter how hostile he is to the tyrant, it is impossible for Jamiet to think that this is directed at a certain tyrant believer.
"Jemiel, should you call Ms. Dorothy's messenger? With the power of the lady, you can definitely get here within a day." Romit's voice fluctuated a little, which was a sign of fear. It had faced it a few days ago.
That sea serpent knows how powerful it is.
"No, it's not easy for me to come out just once. If my mother catches me, it will be very difficult for me to come out again in the future."
Jamil picked up the three fish and walked towards the island:
"I would rather wait for a ship to pass by. Don't worry. It's just a sacrifice. The scope of the sea snake's belief is limited to the Rhoside Islands and will not come here."
Romit said that there was a stream of air coming out of the hole in his mouth, and he could only follow Jamil.
…
"Come pick me up at this time in two days, and I will pay you the remaining five pounds." After moving a few packages off the boat, Rawls waved to the fisherman.
"Okay, you have to be careful, don't go into the forest at a high place, you will get lost." Fisherman Butcher warned in a thick accent. There are not many tourists like this who come to the uninhabited island.
It's just that there will be more than a dozen people together, and fishermen like him will be hired.
But there are still very few people like this young guest who go to the uninhabited island to play alone, almost none. However, the old fisherman has tried to persuade him many times, but he still did not stop this risky behavior.
Seeing his guest dragging his package towards the island, Fisherman Butcher murmured:
"I hope the Storm Lord you believe in will bless you. Well, look at the remaining five pounds."
…
Seeing the fishing boat gradually moving away, Rawls took off the glasses on the bridge of his nose and put them into his space money bag. He then took out a collar button from a smaller package and pinned it on his shirt collar. In order to prevent seasickness, the collar button
It had extremely disgusting negative effects, so he could only put it in a smaller package first.
After taking out the "Scepter of Power" from the space money bag, and throwing all the tents, food, fishing rods and other messy things into the space money bag, Rawls' ghost fox hunting trip began. The premise is that this
There is a ghost fox on the island.
He landed from a flat area in the southeast of Stee Island, and his destination was the forest in the northwest. If there were ghost foxes on the island, there was a high possibility that they lived in that forest.
Ghost foxes feed on spirit creatures. Although they are not afraid of the sun, they hate it. In this area, only the dense woods can provide shade to block the sun.
Ten minutes later, Rawls stopped and looked at the two series of marks on the ground with a serious face. One was human footprints, and the other was extremely exaggerated. He could put his hands in it, but it was not a giant.
The footprints are circular, and what's more important is that these marks are fresh, and the sand in the huge footprints is still a little damp.
He did not follow the footprints. After looking around, he clenched the "Wand of Power" in his right hand, put his left hand in his pocket, and walked towards a higher area. But before he took a few steps, he
The land in front of him gradually began to soften and turned into a "swamp", and a gray stone head emerged from it.
The sand under Rawls' feet seemed to be revitalized, and green vines crazily emerged from it, climbing up his legs.
Although I don’t know where the guy opposite is from, judging from his behavior, he must be intelligent, so “bribery” will be useful.
The "Wand of Power" stirred up the soft sand and flew towards the stone head, "bribing - weakening", he flipped his wrist and hit the green vines that were dancing like wild snakes. With the blessing of huge power, the two vines in front of him were directly hit.
Pull it off and the green juice splashes out.
With his knees bent and his calf muscles suddenly exerting force, Rawls jumped out of the gap in the vine cage and ran quickly to the rock next to him.
The green vines behind him stretched out towards his back like crazy tentacles, and the two interrupted vines also grew back. Only the two broken sections on the ground quickly withered and turned into fly ash.
The "Wand of Power" clicked on the ground, and golden illusory flames appeared out of thin air and floated around him, exuding the majestic breath of the sun, converging into a golden ocean to protect Rawls.
If he remembered correctly, he could only sneak underground after reaching Sequence 5 "Drew Yin". Judging from the stone head, it would be difficult for "Bright Fire" to hurt it, and it would probably only be able to deal with the tentacles. of vines.
The "Wand of Power" was leaning on his waist, and the dusty space money bag was already held in his left hand. He stretched his right hand towards the mouth of the money bag. He, Rawls, had already touched the "Iron-Blooded Reaper".
In the "swamp" in the distance, the stone golem Romit has emerged. His height of three and a half meters casts a huge shadow, made of blue-gray rocks. He waved his arms hanging down to the ground and was about to pounce in front of Rawls. The green vines suddenly retracted, as if time went backwards, and the vines returned to the sand.
"Are you the friend Jamil met that day?" A gentle female voice came from the "mouth" of the stone golem Romit. It has never seen Rawls, but it can judge the man opposite him from the breath of life. Identity only requires a very close distance to achieve it.
Does this stone man know Jamil? Jamil's companion in searching for treasures? The accent seems to be somewhat similar to Jamil... Rawls frowned slightly, his right hand still placed in the space money bag:
"Do you know Jamil?"
"I'm his nanny. You can call me Romit. Jamil is also on this island." The stone golem Romit's stone head nodded and made a harsh sound of rubbing rocks. "Jamie, yes." Your companion." The huge voice echoed through half of the island.
Nanny? Rawls was stunned for a moment, looking at the blue-gray rocks piled up on Romit's body of more than three meters tall. Would you believe me if you said you were a bodyguard? Or should you say that all Ma Xi's nannies are like you? , how many children can survive to adulthood?
Also, when did I become Jamil’s companion? Have you ever asked for my opinion? What kind of companion do you need when a nanny like you is better than a bodyguard?
He resisted the urge to complain and waited for a while. A short man, no, a boy, ran out. He gasped with excitement and waved to Rawls:
"Hi, we meet again, I'm Jamiet Lovelace, what's your name?"
Rawls subconsciously gave his pseudonym:
"Jeffrey Lister."
Jamil was stunned for a moment, his gray-blue eyes carefully looked at the man who called himself Jeffrey, and he scratched his head as if he was remembering something.
Seeing Jamil's actions, Rawls's heart sank. After he arrived at Kaiyin Island, because the local people were almost all indigenous people, he didn't make any disguise. He just wore a pair of glasses, but he had already taken them off just now. Lost it... However, Jamil is from Ma Xi, so he probably wouldn't know him.
"No, I have seen your photo. You are the barrister of Backlund, named Rawls Adrian, right? I am a 'reader', and my memory will not deceive me. Although you My hair is much longer now than in the photo, and I still have stubble.”
Jamil patted his chest and said confidently:
"Although I have not yet become a 'reasoning student' of Sequence 8, my observation skills are not bad!"
"Okay, I'm Rolls Adrian." Rolls shrugged, "But you have to know that you have to use a pseudonym when venturing outside. For example, I know you are from Masi, where the population is not Well, Lovelace is a rare surname, and it is easy to find your family members for revenge."
However, considering that Jamil is a Sequence 9 "reader" and has such a powerful "nanny" by his side, I am afraid that after finding his family, we still don't know who will take revenge on whom?
"Well... you are right. Although my mother is not afraid, she really should give her a pseudonym. I need to think about it carefully."
"Jemiel, your grilled fish is going to be grilled in the lake."
The stone golem's gentle reminder made Jamil exclaim, turned around and ran towards his temporary station. Before he could run far, he turned around and waved to Rawls:
"Rolls, come on, I'll treat you to grilled fish." He continued to run forward regardless of whether Rawls responded.
Although Jamil looks like he is fourteen or fifteen years old, his mental age is probably younger. Just know it... Rawls shook his head, picked up the "Wand of Power" and looked at Romit:
"You lead the way, he runs too fast."
"Come with me."
The stone golem took steps, with heavy steps but no sound, which made Rawls wonder.
"Jemiel is still young. There is nothing wrong with trusting me, a stranger. Do you also trust that I will not do anything bad to you?"
Although Romit is not a human being, but more like some kind of artificial creation, its words and actions prove that it is not just a stone, it has its own wisdom.
The stone golem stopped and looked down at Rawls:
"I trust Jamil's judgment, and I also believe that I can beat you to a pulp before you do anything bad to Jamil."
I'm afraid it's more of the latter... Rawls looked at the blue-gray rock arm that was thicker than his waist and nodded:
"I believe you too, let's go. I also want to try Jamil's grilled fish. How about it?"
…
I have to say that, except for some places where the grilled fish was a little charred, the overall taste of Jamil's grilled fish was still very good. However, Rawls believed that it was largely due to some unknown plants spawned by Romit. In the process of eating fish
, he also knew the reason why Jamil was wandering on the island of Ste.
"You really want me to join your treasure hunting team?"
Jamil wiped his somewhat greasy mouth haphazardly and nodded:
"Of course, otherwise I wouldn't have come to Styria."
Rawls shook his head slightly, pointed to the forest in the northwest and said:
"You said you wanted to help me find the ghost fox, have you found it?"
"Well……"
Jamil lowered his head and muttered:
"No, I haven't started looking for it yet. I've been thinking of ways to get out of here these days."
His voice was very low. If Rawls hadn't been close and he was an Extraordinary, I wouldn't have been able to hear what he was saying.
"But now that you are here, I can ask Romit to help you catch the ghost fox. The ghost fox is very fast and can attack the soul. Romit can control plants and is not afraid of spiritual attacks. It can be easily caught.
of."
Jamil slapped his chest, very proud, as if he could catch the ghost fox.
"The premise is that there are ghost foxes on this island." Rawls added nonchalantly, "Do you know much about ghost foxes?"
"Of course, otherwise how would I know that there might be a ghost fox here, and I'm pretty sure that there is a high possibility of a ghost fox here." Jamil pointed to the northwest, "On the cliff outside the forest, there are traces of sacrifices.
, is a very barbaric living sacrifice. The flesh and blood of those people are thrown into the sea, and the souls of those who died unjustly linger around there. Those souls are the food of the ghost foxes."
