"Over there!" Daniel pointed excitedly to the right. Only then did Salin realize that there was a vague silhouette to the right. If Daniel hadn't pointed it out, Salin and Rex wouldn't have discovered it.
"Let's go take a look." Salin perked up. Three days of drifting wasn't a long time. Sometimes, Salin would spend the whole day thinking about a formula without eating. But this ocean was indeed full of danger. Powerful magic beasts appeared frequently. The most intense time, Salin had to abandon Freddie and completely give up on trying to save him.
Fortunately, the multicolored shark didn't move in groups. It left satisfied after eating one person. Salin didn't dare to attack that shark easily. Now he knew that the magic beasts in the ocean were very good at transmitting information. Although there was only one colorful shark, it could call over a hundred in a few minutes if it was attacked.
If they kept drifting, they would encounter magic beasts that Salin and the others couldn't deal with sooner or later. They didn't need to be too strong. An eighth-level magic beast could bury all five of them in the ocean.
Following Rex's order, the two construct puppets started to paddle faster. But this turtle shell was too big. No matter how strong they were, they couldn't make the turtle shell move as fast as the ship.
After rowing for more than three hours, they finally approached the blurry area. Salin could only see it with his Icy Vision. The huge island seemed to be shrouded in twisted air currents.
The entire island was separated by a thick curtain of light. From afar, it was impossible to see the island. If Salin didn't have Icy Vision, he would only see that the color of the ocean was a little faint.
"Stop, stop!" Salin shouted. But it was too late. The turtle shell that had been moving slowly suddenly sped up and crashed into the curtain of light.
Except for Neris, everyone had a shield around them. Rex had an Ice Pattern Armor, Salin had a Water Pattern Shield, and Daniel expanded his Flames of Death to protect himself. A layer of dark space suddenly appeared on the surface of Shika's body, enveloping her. Ancient runes flowed in this dark space, bringing with them a peaceful and desolate ancient aura.
There were no signs of powerful Magical Beasts in the vicinity of the mountain village where Sicar was, due to the increasing human activity, and the frequent appearance of the Church's people. If Shika wanted to comprehend the abilities of a Battle Priest, he would need to frequently come into contact with powerful creatures, or even live together with them. This period of drifting on the sea was the most beneficial to Shika.
Ever since she came to the sea, she had encountered all kinds of powerful magical beasts. These magical beasts were different from those on land. They were not hostile to humans, let alone afraid. When they weren't hungry, they treated Salin and the others as if they didn't exist.
This kind of aura could not be found on land magical beasts. Shika gradually understood the relationship between the priests and nature. It was not about using or conquering. The only reason the priests fought was to ensure the survival of the human race. No wonder the original Battle Soul in the weapon did not have a trace of resentment. Back then, the priest did not force the Magical Beast Battle Soul to stay. It was a coexisting belief.
This light screen did not have any attack power. It only covered up the scenery behind it. But Salin and the others were on tenterhooks. The island was right in front of them, and the island was lifeless. There was not a single trace of green on the huge gray rocks. This was the southernmost part of the sea. The temperature was high, and the humidity was high. There should be grass even if there were no trees.
Looking back at the light screen, it was already pitch black. It was as if it was night time, and they could not tell the direction. There was obviously a huge magic array still operating here. It did not look like it was defending against enemies, but to prevent the people inside from leaving.
Salin had the badge, so he was not afraid of the magic array. As long as it was not too powerful, he could stick the badge on it and absorb the power of the elements to break it.
The Coiled Turtle's tail was still chained. Neris jumped into the water, pulled the chain, and walked towards the island.
Rex's body was lifted by a green current, and he flew towards the island. Salin rolled his eyes and looked at Daniel. Just now, neither he nor Rex had discovered the abnormality in the distance. How did Daniel discover it? He did not think that Daniel's mental power was stronger than his or Rex's.
"Daniel, what do you think this place is?" Salin asked, smiling.
"Ghost Fog Island," Daniel answered honestly. He did not evade as Salin had imagined. Salin was stunned. Daniel said helplessly, "There are such islands in the sea of the Tanggulas Empire. They are usually left behind by necromancers, but it is rare for them to go so deep into the sea.
"Oh? What do you know? " Salin did not know much about necromancy. Apart from Daniel, he had never met a second necromancer. If there was anything strange on this island, he had to find out first. Daniel expected that he would not hide anything.
"I don't know, either. Normally, there would be a huge magic array on a Ghost Fog Island to prevent the outside world from discovering it. Most necromancers do not like to interact with people, and the Vatican has always been unfriendly to necromancers. Therefore, on any Ghost Fog Island, there would be a necromancy magic array to hide the traces of the island. It's just that this island is too big. If the necromancer on it is still alive, we are not his match even if we work together. "
"What if the necromancer is no longer here?"
Daniel's eyes lit up for a moment, then dimmed. He replied sincerely, "If a necromancer is about to die, he will take everything with him and leave nothing behind, except for the magic array on this hidden island. Maybe there will be a magic tower, or maybe all the magic towers have been torn down. Don't think of finding anything valuable, except … "
"A place like this should be very suitable for practicing necromancy, right?" Salin felt the aura of death, which happened to be the opposite of the power of Goddess Myers, making him a little uncomfortable.
"Yes, maybe this is the only benefit we will get."
"Daniel, you finally acknowledge the word 'us'." Salin's smile made Daniel's heart turn cold.
"Salin, I …"
"No need to say more. I will stay on this island for a while. When Rex needs your help to build a ship, don't slack off. When you are not needed, make good use of the time to practice, and let the Winged Skeleton recover to its peak strength as soon as possible."
"Ah?" Daniel had thought that Salin was going to make things difficult, but unexpectedly, Salin had only done it a few days earlier.
"Daniel, Rex is someone who does big things. Do you really think she can't do without your help? There are countless mages like you in Kushui Commandery. I really don't understand why you would have that kind of idea. "
Daniel's face was full of shame, and he said, "I don't know either, maybe it's that armor …"
Hearing Daniel's words, Salin thought of the face that floated on the armor, and his heart trembled. At that time, Daniel had sent most of the Flames of Death into Freddie's body, so he was probably greatly affected by the demonic soul. He didn't know if Daniel would have any problems in the future. If the demonic soul attracted Daniel's desire, it would be quite dangerous to have such a necromancer by his side.
Bang!
The huge turtle shell hit the rocks of the island, smashing a piece of rock into pieces. Many of the inflatable skins around the turtle shell were already damaged, and this hit caused a few more skins to burst. Without these skins, even if the turtle shell was empty, it would slowly sink.
Neris took out a spear from her bracelet and stabbed it into the rock. The spear was made of pure steel, and when the spear stabbed halfway into the rock, Daniel saw it from the corner of his eyes, and felt fear for Neris. Now he was afraid of Salin, afraid of Neris, and afraid of Sid.
Salin's divine arts restrained him, and Sid's weapon ignored his magic defense. Now it seemed that Neris could cripple him with only strength.
Salin watched Neris wrap the iron chain around the spear, and bend the spear. The end of the spear actually stabbed into the rock. This power was not something that humans could have. People who practiced sword energy would have an instant explosive power stronger than magical beasts, but to bend a steel spear like this was impossible.
Salin was very pleased that he had Neris by his side, and his safety was greatly improved. There was also Sid, these two did not practice sword energy, but they had inexplicable power. Even a sword saint could be killed by their sneak attack if he was not careful.
A sword saint could see the level of the enemy's sword energy or magic, but Sid and Neris had not practiced these at all.
The winged skeleton grabbed Daniel and flew to the island. Daniel turned back in the air and said to Salin, "Hurry up, it's best to build a temporary house first. Once night falls on Ghost Fog Island, there will be a heavy fog. This is not the fog of the Devil's Horn, there may be some monsters in the fog. "
"Monsters? Didn't you say that necromancers would not leave anything behind? "
"This place and the Dimension of Dead Souls …" Before Daniel could finish, the Winged Skeleton had already placed him on the ground. Salin leaped up, and a mist appeared around his body. It was like a thick cloud, dragging him steadily towards the land.
There were only boulders and gravel on the beach. There was no sand. Daniel watched Salin fly up, not even understanding what spell it was.
Salin smiled. Seeing Rex fly back from afar, he continued to ask, "There should be no one on this island. Didn't you say that necromancers would not leave anything behind? Why would there be monsters? "
"This island is connected to the Dimension of Souls all year round. Without the summoning of necromancers, necromancers cannot reach here, but this island will naturally produce some monsters. For necromancers, these monsters can be enslaved, and they are not summoned. For ordinary people, these monsters are even more terrifying than spirit-sucking monsters. Once they get close, they will absorb your life force, and you will die very quickly, even if you are a sword saint. "
"So powerful!" Salin was surprised.
"It's not that powerful. If you are prepared, these things are very slow, and they do not have the consciousness to attack. A tent can stop them. What you are afraid of is being surrounded. In the ghost fog, these things can fly, and you will not be able to escape if you are surrounded. "
Whoosh …
