As a "lawyer", Rawls easily got a lot of information from Jamil. Although he accumulated a lot of knowledge, after all, he was just a little guy under fifteen years old, and his lack of experience prevented him from putting it into practice.
That knowledge is comprehensive, not to mention that he is facing a "lawyer".
The stone golem Romit just watched quietly from the side. Rawls believed that she saw that he was lying. After all, the dolls refined by the Church of Knowledge may not have strong combat power, but their wisdom will definitely be maximized.
Jamil comes from Winston, the capital of Ma Xi. In addition to being from a family of extraordinary people, he should also be a noble. This can be seen from his demeanor. From a single-parent family, his mother should be the refining Romit.
He is a "prophet" who is a research madman. He doesn't care much about Jamil's life and leaves it all to the stone golem.
Rawls neither refused nor accepted Jamil's invitation to search for the "Ghost Empire". He just said that he would make a decision after finding the ghost fox.
He has too many things to do. To investigate the matter of Alston, Roy Jin also needs the "Dream Catcher". He also needs to find clues from Sharf about the Russell treasure, and also needs to search for some Russells.
It’s easy to create problems if you compile too many diaries. You always have to mix in a few real ones.
Looking for the "Ghost Empire" takes time, and he doesn't believe that he can board that ghost ship just with the boarding voucher. As the ghost ship that carries the last legacy and hope of the Trunsoest Empire, Rawls is absolutely
There is reason to believe that it has been activated over a long period of time, and it is very likely to have self-awareness like the "Whispering Horn" of "Immortal King" Agaritu.
According to the records in the diary and the legend at sea, that ship can carry a city. It has not been discovered by the church for more than a thousand years. I am afraid that its level has surpassed that of the "Whispering Ship" and has the status of an angel.
Under this premise, just because the owner of the diary, Christian, came out of the "Ghost Empire" alive, a guy who thinks he can come out of it too will definitely encounter something more terrifying than death.
However, Jamil seemed to be mistaken, thinking that as long as he found the ghost fox Rawls, he would join his treasure hunting team, and he happily set off towards the woods in the northwest with the stone golem Romit.
Seeing the head of his head gradually turning westward, Rawls did not refuse his kindness. Hunting ghost foxes in the woods would be much more convenient with a guy like Romit who could control plants and communicate with animals.
…
At the edge of the Rossed Sea, five or six three-masted sailing ships were anchored here with their sails hanging down.
In each boat, several indigenous people from the Rhoside Islands with darker skin and slightly curly black hair came to the deck. Some of them were wearing dark blue or pure white Taraba shirts, and some were simply topless.
The skin is smeared with more or less red paint, and the naked ones also have sea snake tattoos on their bodies.
Those wearing Taraba shirts either had bulging waists or carried rifles on their backs, but they were holding weapons and surrounded the shirtless people in front of them in awe, looking at the sea snake tattoos on their bodies with envy.
.
The leading man on the middle boat had a sea snake between his eyebrows, and a ferocious sea snake on each arm. He faced the direction of the Rhoside Islands, crawled down, spread his hands and put them to his mouth. The people behind him, and those on the other boats
People also followed his movements, crawling on the deck and chanting the honorable name of "Poseidon" in unison:
"Thank you and praise you, the roll of the sea and the spiritual world, the protector of the Rhoside Islands, the ruler of underwater creatures, the controller of tsunamis and storms, the great Kavitua!"
"Thank you, praise you..."
…
As they prayed over and over again, the naked-chested men with tattoos on each boat trembled at the same time. Layers of smooth and dark illusory fish scales stood out on the surface of their naked skin. Unknown roars came from these. What came out of the person's mouth was like a sea monster roaring in the depths of the ocean.
Their eyes became as dark blue as sea water, and the whites of their eyes almost disappeared. Their slightly curly black hair seemed to be alive, curling freely, and their bodies swelled. A man with a sea snake tattoo between his eyebrows appeared between the fingers of his two hands near his mouth. It has a web-like structure.
These people could only make low roars from their mouths, while the people behind them were still chanting the honorable name of "Poseidon" in a low voice. As they chanted over and over again, the changes in these people's bodies became more and more terrifying.
Suddenly, the man with a changed body on the far left let out an angry cry and jumped off the boat. Those behind him did not stop chanting. Within a few seconds, another man with a deformed body jumped into the sea. .
Soon, only the man with the sea serpent tattoo between his eyebrows was left. The phantom scales on his body had disappeared, replaced by thick and smooth tentacles inlaid with fish scales. They slapped the deck and made waves like the sound of tidal waves. , invisible wind blades formed around him and collapsed...
…
The strong wind picked up the man with the sea snake tattoo on his eyebrows and carried him back to the deck. The man could not see the whites of his eyes, only his deep blue eyes looked at his companions around him:
"'Poseidon' has given power to us humble believers. We must offer more sacrifices to the gods in order to gain greater power and let the believers of false gods know how powerful we are! We will look for sacrifices today and tomorrow. , arrive at the altar before noon the day after tomorrow.”
"Thanks to the great Kavitua!"
"Thanks to the great Kavitua!"
Accompanied by bursts of shouts, the sails were raised, and the three-masted sailing ship set off in search of sacrifices!
…
As the sun disappeared over the horizon, the island of Ste was plunged into darkness.
Rawls already knew from Jemino's mouth that there are only some small animals on this island, and there are only some small fish in the nearby sea. Those large marine creatures are afraid of the remaining "Poseidon" aura on the island and dare not approach here. , so the stone golem Romit, who has the ability to communicate with animals, cannot leave with Jamil.
In the afternoon, the stone golem Romit had communicated with the small animals and plants in the woods and determined that there were ghost foxes in the woods and that they would come to the cliff every night to hunt for prey.
The pale crimson color filtered through the gaps between the leaves, barely projecting a little light. This was far from enough for Rawls and the others to see clearly what was in the woods, but they did not use torches or other lighting tools.
The ghost fox is an extremely sensitive supernatural creature. Although it is not afraid of fire and light, it will stay away from it and will only attack when it is in danger or prey. Rawls and Jamil also have the stone golem Romy on them. The specially cast "Drew Yin" spell reduced their sense of existence to the minimum.
The location where they ambush was behind a rock close to the right side of the cliff. Behind them was a five- to six-meter-high cliff bank, and waves crashed against the raised rock cliff from time to time.
But the stone golem Romit's huge body cannot be blocked by a rock at all. It only exposed its stone head, which was three times the size of an adult's head, while the rest of its body was hidden underground.
On the left side of the cliff is the forest. There should have been trees growing on this cliff, but they were all cut down and a clearing was cleared. In the clearing was a huge rock half a man tall, with black and red blood stains on it.
.Through the dried blood stains, you can see waves, lightning, sea monsters, and a huge sea serpent carved into the rock.
There are lines outlined around the rock, which are the same as the carvings on the rock, only larger. And if you look closely, you can find that these lines are painted with blood.
The sea breeze blew through this bloody and primitive altar, and whimpering, crying, and shouting reached the ears of the three people.
…
Time gradually passed while waiting. The eyelids of the older boy Jamil were already trembling. The excitement of hunting ghost foxes had long been exhausted, leaving only fatigue and sleepiness.
After Jamil fell asleep, a white shadow with blue flames flashed past in the woods. Under the dim moonlight, it was impossible to see its true appearance, especially since it was still going on.
move.
The innocent souls lingering on the edge of the cliff had obviously sensed the arrival of natural enemies, and their cries and shouts seemed to penetrate into the depths of their souls. Unfortunately, they had no effect on the ghost foxes.
Although he has no means of attacking spirit bodies, Rawls is a Sequence 7 Beyonder after all. The sound of such an innocent soul, which is not even an evil spirit, cannot affect him at all, let alone the stone golem Romit.
As for Jamil, the talisman around his neck has been shining faintly, and it can obviously only block this.
The ghost fox did not leave the woods immediately, but kept jumping back and forth at the edge of the woods, as if it sensed that someone was ambushing it. The blue flames dancing on its body extinguished from time to time, leaving only a white shadow.
Even the white shadows completely disappeared and melted into the dark forest.
But Rawls already knew from Jamil's mouth that this was just a temptation from the ghost fox.
Ghost foxes are a few extraordinary creatures that live in groups. Before hunting, they will often send out a ghost fox to test, and only after confirming that there is no ambush will they go out in groups to prey on spirits.
Not long after the testing ghost fox disappeared, dozens of dancing blue flames appeared in the forest, and more than a dozen white shadows were clustered in front of each other and rushed towards the cliff. Although there was no spiritual vision, it became more and more clear from the ears.
There was an obvious ghost crying sound, and Rawls could also imagine the scene on the edge of the cliff.
After Rawls lowered his head to Romit, he stood up quietly, grasped the "Wand of Power" in his hand, and locked the ghost fox closest to him. The cane tapped the ground gently, and a ray of light seemed to come from the kingdom of the sun.
It fell in mid-air, covering the target and the two surrounding ghost foxes. This light with purifying power immediately made the three ghost foxes scream like babies crying.
The blue patterns on their bodies dimmed, and the white fur on the one that Rawls was targeting was stained with a layer of burnt yellow. It struggled to get up from the ground and wanted to run towards the woods.
The other frightened ghost foxes did not run away immediately. They all turned to look at Rawls, as if their transparent eyes reflected him. This was the ghost fox's only means of attack.
They use spirit bodies as food and accumulate all the negative emotions in those spirits in their eyes, which can make people's hearts gradually darken and make irrational choices. As long as the enemy is affected, their injured partners can quickly flee to
In the forest.
But Rawls, who was holding the "Scepter of Power", would not be affected by these effects. He raised his stick, and the flames of light spread out into sheets, weaving into a large net to block the road from the cliff to the woods.
Facing the aura of the sun that exuded their disgust, the three injured ghost foxes stopped and turned back to run towards their companions.
After a few big strides, Rawls was directly blocked behind the bright fire net. He took out his revolver and pointed it at the most seriously injured ghost fox. After two "bang bang" shots, the light was blue.
Fluorescent blood oozed from its back.
Seeing that their abilities had no effect and that their companions were killed, those ghost foxes let out bursts of baby-like cries and scattered in all directions to escape. However, the area they were in was a cliff, and the road leading to the forest had been blocked by Rawls.
Blocked. On the other side, the stone golem Romit had emerged from the ground, and his three-and-a-half-meter body blocked the remaining space.
Seeing that the ghost fox was dead, Rawls waved the "Wand of Power" gently, and most of the bright fire in front of him dissipated, leaving only two or three as lighting.
Nodding to Romit, the stone golem moved out of the way. The already frightened ghost fox quickly left the passage, regardless of whether it was a trap or not.
The revolver in Rawls' hand naturally drooped, and he walked to the dead ghost fox in two or three steps. Under the light of the fire of light, he observed this strange creature.
It’s not much different from the description in Alicia’s letter. She’s all white, with strange blue patterns on her limbs and claws. But now, due to the power of the Holy Light, her fur is a little scorched, and the blue patterns are much darker. She feels refreshed on her back.
The bluish blood that came out shone with a bright blue light under the light of the bright fire.
He took out the prepared glass bottle and a silver knife from the space purse. The blood of the ghost fox was the auxiliary material of the "Corrupted Baron". After confirming that the blood in the glass bottle exceeded 50 ml, Rawls took the ghost fox into
The eyes were removed and put into the iron box.
He turned to look at Romit and found that she had hugged the sleeping Jamil and her two holes were staring at him. Frowning, Rawls pointed at Jamil and said:
"Are you sure he's fine?"
Although the battle was short, the two gunshots and the ghost fox's cry were not low. The teenage boy was an extraordinary person, but he didn't react at all.
Stone Golem Romit lowered his head and glanced at Jamil, his voice was very gentle:
"I used my ability. Jamil is still young and needs enough sleep."
"Okay, now I believe you are his nanny." Rawls shrugged his shoulders and used extraordinary abilities to put the child to sleep. This was very "nanny".
Romit's slightly short left leg lightly stomped, and a gap immediately opened where the ghost fox's body was, swallowing it in, and then closed it again.
