Chapter 187: [Island of Sand] Natives, encounter twilight!

Chapter 187 [Island of Sand] The natives encounter twilight!

 As soon as you set foot on the land of [Sand Island].

Xia En immediately felt that the secret power in the air around him had become thinner and heavier.

 Whether it is absorbing the secret power or manipulating the secret power, there will be great resistance.

 “Is this the ban on [Sand Island]?”

Xia En sighed secretly: "It's really extraordinary."

"However, it seems that there are more than just restrictions on secret power..."

 He felt it carefully and found that his whole body was a little weak and seemed to be particularly heavy.

 One step down, leaving a deep footprint in the sand.

At this moment, Xia En was able to determine that the gravity on this island was much greater than that of the outside world.

With his strong body, he felt a little uncomfortable. If it were some delicate mystical person, it would be difficult to move forward.

 Xia En turned his head and asked with concern.

 “Ann, are you okay?”

 Behind him, the movement of the armored knight was slightly difficult.

But after hearing this, white magic patterns appeared on the surface of the armor, and An's movements became visibly lighter.

Xia En knew that this was the "sky form" of An's armor, which greatly reduced its own gravity, which exactly offset the gravity field of the Sand Island.

However, it is obviously unrealistic to fly in this environment.

Seeing this scene, Xia En was surprised.

It seems that the restrictions on secret power on [Island of Sand] do not take effect on magic pattern equipment?

 But at this moment, a small head emerged from the gap in the armor.

 “Huh? Where is this?”

Elf Tracy said in a daze: "Why is there so much sand around?"

Seeing her, Shane's eyes twitched: "Tracy, why are you here?"

Tracey said honestly: "I have been sleeping in An's armor before, and I was here when I woke up."

An's body also stiffened slightly.

How could he have imagined that Tracey would be so bold as to dare to sleep in his armor?



 Shaan also realized this.

 But after carefully checking her up and down, he found that Tracy had no other symptoms except for being a little depressed due to the ban on the [Island of Sand].

But if you think about it carefully, things like "bad luck" are inherently mysterious and mysterious. They cannot be explained by common sense, and naturally there are no observable symptoms.

 At the moment, since Tracy is already here, she cannot be sent to the [Black Swan] again.

 —This back and forth will inevitably waste a lot of time.

So, after Xia En gave her a few warnings, he continued to move deeper into the [Island of Sand].

 After setting foot on [Sand Island] in person, we can feel the vastness of this island even more.

The scene in front of me always seems to be an unchanging lonely desert, with no end as far as the eye can see.

 About half an hour later, the sea behind him had disappeared, but the surrounding scene seemed to have not changed at all.

 Furthermore, as the relationship between two people and one goblin progresses, the influence of gravity and restrictions is still deepening.

 The air is getting hotter and drier.

At this time, a gust of wind suddenly blew, raising large amounts of yellow sand. The sun in the sky seemed a little distorted, but the wind and sand did not prevent it from casting endless light and heat on this desolate area.

There is no doubt that this desert is showing its ferocious side to outsiders.

After walking forward for a while, Xia En caught a glimpse of something lying across the empty desert.

Xia En walked forward slowly, taking every step carefully, and soon saw its appearance clearly.

This is clearly a mummy!

 He was wearing pirate clothes and there were no obvious wounds on his body.

 But the water in the body has completely disappeared, and the dry body clings to the bones like a skeleton.

 Looking carefully, there are several similar mummies nearby.

 Obviously, they all came to [Sand Island] to look for treasure, but they lost their lives before the treasure was found.

Shaan frowned and thought: "How did they die?"

"You can't die of thirst here, can you?"

Now that they all know the climate and environment of [Sand Island], these pirates should prepare countermeasures in advance.

An was about to write on the sand to express her views, when she heard Tracy say.

“An felt that they might have been poisoned.”

"Um?"

Not only An, but also Xia En looked at Tracy in surprise.

 It was not because of the speculation itself, but because Tracy seemed to understand Ann's meaning without communicating.

 Tracey’s reaction to them was a little strange: “Did I say something wrong?”

Shaan looked at An with questioning eyes.

 An silently shook her head.

Xia En was surprised and asked: "Tracy, how did you do it?"

 Tracey raised her chin and said with some pride: "This is the innate ability of our fairy clan, called [Capturing the Voice of the Heart]."

“But it can only be used on elves, and it requires the trust of the target.”

Xia En looked at An with a strange expression.

There is always something strange about having one's heart captured.

Tracey said: "Ann is thinking... Captain, don't look at me like that!"

 An's body stiffened again, and she looked at Tracy angrily.

Shaan seemed to see his shameful and angry expression through the armor.

This thought made Xia En couldn't help laughing.

 ‘It turns out that An also shows this kind of emotion...'

Although An was one of the first crew members to board the ship, due to the armor and [Aphasia Curse], Xia En had never seen his expression or heard his voice, so he could not know his true mood.

The current posture is different from the usual image of a rigid and loyal knight.

 It also made him look more lively and lovely in Xia En's eyes.

However, Xia En also knew that if he continued to laugh, An might become really angry.

So he coughed twice and said, "Tracy, you will act as Ann's mouthpiece from now on and notify me of any important news in a timely manner."

 “However, don’t reveal all your feelings...”

Tracey was confused when she heard this: "What should be said and what shouldn't be said?"

"For example...what about the phrase 'Captain, you are so mean-spirited!'"

 “Pfft!”

 The gaze cast by An under the armor was almost killing the goblin.

Xia En suppressed laughter and turned to examine the mummy.

 It’s just that he just turned over the pirate’s mummy.

 A small black shadow suddenly rushed toward the door at a speed that ordinary people could hardly react to.

Xia En's expression changed slightly, but his movements were faster than his thoughts. He stretched out his big hand and caught the approaching black figure.

Out of caution, a layer of blood appeared on his body, and it was this layer of blood that blocked the sting from the black shadow's tail.

Dang!

 The tail of the black shadow hit the blood and made a muffled sound.

 Under the firm pressure of blood, this little thing finally became honest.

　At this time, Xia En was able to see the whole black shadow clearly.

This is a black scorpion, only the size of a palm, but its body is extremely hard, like steel. Xia En took out a dagger and slashed it casually.

There was a crisp "bang" sound, and the tip of the dagger broke.

Although this is just an ordinary dagger, with the blessing of Xia En's power, it cannot pierce the body of the black scorpion. The natural defense of the black shell is really shocking.

And its tail still exudes a bitter taste similar to almonds.

While smelling this smell, Xia En felt a constant tingling sensation on his skin, and the hand holding the dagger was also a little numb.

 Obviously, this is poison, unimaginably poisonous.

With Xia En's current physique, many toxins have no effect on him, but this seemingly inconspicuous scorpion actually contains such terrible poison.

Most of the pirates here will die in their hands.

The danger of this [Sand Island] lies not only in the special environment, but also in the indigenous people and such unheard-of strange creatures.

Xia En used the Blood Demon Sword to cut open the body of the black poisonous scorpion to ensure that it was dead.

Then he turned his head and was about to explain his findings to Ann and Tracy when he heard a sharp sound of breaking through the air behind him.

　　咻!

　　咻咻!

Several arrows pierced the air, and they came very fast, heading towards Xia En and the others' rear.

 An's reaction was a beat too slow, and he didn't have time to dodge.

Xia En took a step forward, holding the Blood Demon Sword in his hand. He slashed down with the sword to cut off the flying arrows.

 He looked up and frowned slightly.

On the sand dunes not far away, several strange men in yellow robes were seen holding bows and arrows, looking at them with hostility.

The yellow robes worn by these weirdos are in tatters, almost blending in with the color of the desert.

It also caused Xia En to be unable to see their appearance clearly. He could only see something like thick hair through the holes in the robe.

 Almost the moment he saw the strange man in yellow robe, Xia En could confirm—

 They are the natives of this [Sand Island]!

And if Xia En guessed correctly, the appearance of these pirates lying in the desert and the natives is not a mere coincidence, but...

 A trap!

 The natives are using the mummies of these pirates to attract outsiders, and suddenly attack them when they inspect the corpses!

Even if outsiders avoid the scorpion attack, they will be shot by the bow and arrow from behind.

Xia En glanced back at the arrows. Their arrows were hollow, and they also exuded the smell of bitter almonds.

 Poison is obviously one of the big killer weapons of this group of natives!

 Inexplicably, Xia En's expression was a little strange.

Normally speaking, given the size of [Sand Island] and not reaching the core area of ​​the island, it shouldn’t be that easy for them to encounter the natives.

 But now we have only been on the island for half an hour, and I and others have plunged into the trap of the natives...

Is this really just plain bad luck?

Or…

The bad luck that Tracey Cong'an suffered from has taken effect quietly?

However, this is not the time to think about these questions, because...

 The natives not far away have already set up their bows and arrows again, preparing for the second round of shooting!

 Xia En calmed down, put aside the distracting thoughts in his heart, and immediately took out the [Hui Cult Amulet] from the [Apocalypse Ring].

 In an instant.

 A group of light appeared around him.

Unless absolutely necessary, Xia En still didn’t want to be enemies with these natives.

 After all, these natives are extremely adaptable and understand the environment of the Sand Island, and can exert combat power far beyond their own level.

With his previous experience of cooperating with the Coral City Sea Tribe, Xia En clearly understood that if he could rely on their power, many difficulties would be solved.

At this time, Xia En happened to learn about the indigenous people's belief in Hui religion.

 There is no reason not to take advantage of it.

as expected.

　　After seeing this brilliance, the movements of the natives were slightly stagnant.

The leader among them seemed to still speak, talking to his companions around him.

However, due to the distance, Xia En could not hear the content of their words clearly.

 It didn’t take long.

Many natives put down their bows and arrows, and the leader waved to Xia En, as if gesturing for him to come over.

Seeing this, Xia En felt happy.

 “There’s a show!”

 As long as they can communicate, it means that the hostility of the natives is within controllable limits.

  Next, show your relationship with the Lord of Radiance, maybe you can get their help.

Thinking about it this way, encountering indigenous people may not necessarily be a sign of bad luck?

 But it will be the next moment.

　　Boom! !

 A **** stream of light suddenly fell from mid-air.

 The place where it fell was exactly where the natives were.

  Accompanied by screams and roars, a violent explosion erupted at the point where the **** light fell, throwing out a large amount of blood, minced meat and severed limbs.

 In just one breath, several natives died on the spot.

The remaining natives screamed and fled quickly.

Xia En suddenly raised his head and looked at the source of the **** light.

I saw a tall young woman with the beauty of ice and snow suspended in mid-air.

Behind her, a pair of substantial blood-colored wings were flapping gently, supporting her to hover in mid-air.

 In this high-gravity environment, being able to fly is a symbol of strength!

 In the woman's hands, she held two firearms that were like twin sisters.

 The previous stream of light was emitted from it.

This beautiful woman looked around and caught everyone present.

 Her lips were smiling, and her smile was beautiful, but her eyes were as cold as a hunter treating his prey.

The moment he saw this woman, all the hairs on Xia En’s body stood up, and an extremely strong sense of crisis arose in his heart.

 This sense of crisis is even more intense than when facing the [Thousand Changers] at that time!

 Characteristics of vampires, women, and extremely high status.

Xia En immediately remembered what Feiya had mentioned, the owner of the [Burning Gold] - Twilight!

 But how could he meet the other party by such a coincidence! ?

How long have you just been on the island?

Looking at Twilight's posture, it seems that she plans to kill everyone present!

Shane glanced at An and Tracy, and suddenly realized that An's bad luck, which could destroy a kingdom, was not just talk.

 “Run separately!”

Xia En did not hesitate, handed a [Hui Cult Talisman] to An, and then ran away in one direction.

 Facing such a powerful enemy, running away together will only speed up the process of death.

 Escape separately, there may be a glimmer of hope.

 “Oh? Is there any unexpected gain?”

Looking in the direction of Xia En in the air, Twilight licked her lips: "This little guy's blood seems to be very sweet..."

 She flapped her wings and quickly chased after him.

After noticing Twilight's actions, Xia En was relieved.

 He took the initiative to cut his wrist in order to attract Twilight to chase him.

 After swallowing the [Crimson Reality] and bathing in dragon blood, his blood must be extremely attractive to the Vampires.

 At least it can prevent Twilight from going after Ann and Tracey.

 At this time, Twilight's faint words came from above.

“Little guy, stop running away and come to your sister’s place…”

 “I will love you very much!”

At the same time as these words were heard, a **** stream of light that made people's scalp numb had already fallen next to Xia En!
