"Slow down, friend. I'm old and can't keep up. Cough, cough, cough …"
After flying past floating island number one, Du Feng did not slow down and still flew very fast. The hunchbacked old man coughed a few times and shouted for him to slow down. Since they had agreed to hunt together, of course, they had to reach floating island number three at the same time.
"Sorry, I was too anxious."
Du Feng slowed down and scratched the back of his head in embarrassment. He could see that the hunchbacked old man was not pretending just now. He really could not keep up with the speed. Was it because he was too weak to keep up? That was obviously not the case. If he guessed correctly, it was really because of the big sack.
The sack was made of an unknown material. It seemed to be especially heavy and could not be stored in a storage ring. When flying, the resistance was especially strong. Therefore, after following for a while, the hunchbacked old man was indeed a little tired.
Interesting. Du Feng slowed down and waited for the other party, but at the same time, he kept a certain distance. When he reached floating island number two, he suddenly accelerated.
"Friend, slow down, my old bones can't keep up."
The hunchbacked old man had to bite the bullet and chase up. The dwarf also hurried to catch up. In order to save the hunchbacked old man some effort, he was still pushing the sack from behind. The two of them carried and pushed as if the sack was a mountain, which made Du Feng more and more curious.
"Alright, don't worry. Floating island number three is just ahead."
After passing floating island number two, Du Feng was indeed not in a hurry. The reason why he sped up when passing floating island number one and two was that he did not want to be seen by too many people. Because the first two floating islands were frequented by people hunting, they would meet them at the entrance.
Of these two, one was a hunchbacked old man and the other a dwarf, and they both looked so unique. It was inevitable that people would recognize them. If they were disturbed by others, it would be hard for him to make a move.
"Huff … huff …"
The hunchbacked old man's speed was getting slower and slower. His feet even sank into the magic cloud. Flying in the air was different from walking on the ground. Walking on the ground only required strength in the legs since the ground was hard anyway. However, flying in the air was different. One had to think of a way to maintain one's balance and prevent one from falling. This in itself consumed a lot of Essence Power and physical strength.
If he were to carry a heavy object at this time, it would be very easy for him to tire out. For some unknown reason, the hunchbacked old man refused to let go of the sack no matter what. His back was hunched even more under the weight of the sack, and beads of sweat kept dripping from his forehead.
"Old man, are you tired? Do you need me to help you carry it?"
The distance between Floating Island No. 2 and Floating Island No. 3 was a little far. Du Feng was afraid that the other party would die of exhaustion before reaching Floating Island No. 3. If that was the case, it would be meaningless.
"Okay, okay!"
The hunchbacked old man seemed to be really exhausted. His first reaction was that it would be better if someone helped him carry the load.
"No, no need!"
He looked up and saw that it was Du Feng. Only then did he realize that he couldn't hand the sack over to him.
"Is it good or not? Elder, please make it clear."
Du Feng looked at the hunchbacked old man with interest, thinking that he must have become muddle-headed from exhaustion. Why on earth was he spending so much effort to carry a sack? What was the use of this sack? Or was there something amazing in it?
"No need, I really don't need to trouble you."
The hunchbacked old man shook the sweat off his face and continued to move forward with the sack. His legs began to tremble, and his speed was getting slower and slower. The dwarf behind him was trying his best to help carry the sack. He was already short, and now he was even shorter.
Du Feng even suspected that the hunchbacked and dwarf of these two were both caused by the weight of the sack.
"Brother Du, you are very interested in that sack, right?"
Not to mention Du Feng, even Xiao Hei was curious about that sack. That sack, which was said to be able to capture demonic beasts alive and even subdue them without the need for a master-servant contract, was really amazing. It was worth the effort of the two of them to carry it all the way from afar.
In fact, the hunchbacked old man and the dwarf didn't want to. They originally thought that since it was Du Feng's first time to the Second Layer of Heaven, he would choose the first floating island to try it out. They didn't know that this kid's answer was to go to the third floating island so far away for his first time.
But if they didn't follow, they wouldn't be able to complete the task, so they bit the bullet and flew to the third floating island. After experiencing the painful torture, the hunchbacked old man was so tired that he almost collapsed, and he finally saw the third floating island.
"We're almost there, hold on a little longer, old man."
Du Feng looked ahead and suddenly sped up and plunged into the third floating island.
"Oh, wait, we're already there, what's the hurry."
When the hunchbacked old man saw that Du Feng had entered the third floating island ahead of him, he was suddenly full of strength and hurried in carrying the big sack. After entering, they saw Du Feng standing there waiting for them. Only then did they relax. He sat down on the ground, gasping for breath.
In any case, at least after reaching the third floating island, he didn't need to maintain the state of flight, and the feeling of being on the ground was just right.
"Young man, wait a minute, let this old man rest first, I will need to rely on this sack to catch the monster later."
The hunchbacked old man untied the sack and put it in front of him, and then deliberately tidied it up as if he was tidying up new clothes, looking very serious.
"Old man, can this sack catch a level 20 monster? Help me catch one back as a spiritual pet."
Du Feng suddenly went to the side of the hunchbacked old man and asked him a question.
"Friend, you must be joking, how can I catch a level 20 monster?"
A level 20 monster is equivalent to a human martial artist's Immortal Emperor level, even if the old man's sack is powerful, it can't be caught alive. In theory, even if the three Immortal Monarchs join forces, they can't kill a level 20 monster, let alone capture it alive.
"Oh, then it's boring. Since I can't catch a level 20 monster, I might as well go in myself. "
Du Feng suddenly changed the topic, suddenly wanting to cooperate with them again. They clearly agreed to form a team to enter the third floating island to hunt together.
"Don't, although my sack can't catch a level 20 monster, it can catch any level 19 monster."
The hunchbacked old man was afraid that Du Feng would really leave, so he immediately stood up and showed that his sack was very strong. Although it can't catch a level 20 monster, it can catch a level 19 monster, even a peak level 19 monster, without a problem.
"Is that so, then old man, catch one for me to see."
