Chen Zhao looked at the tree spirit. "Then what's your job?"
"Don't let the thing inside come out."
"What's inside?"
"Snake," the tree spirit said.
Everyone looked at Chen Zhao with disdain.
Clearly, they thought they had a comprehensive understanding of snakes and felt that they were experienced.
"Sir, please move," Becky Lu Lisha said coolly. Lu Lisha said indifferently, "If you don't intend to forcefully stop us."
The Giant Tree's Dryad made way for its huge body, and all the plants along the way avoided it, directly forming a broad path.
Everyone was dazed. Did he convince the tree spirit so easily?
They'd thought that even if they didn't attack, they'd have to drag it out for half a day.
But …
That's it?
You're not going to persuade it anymore?
Everyone couldn't get used to such a direct result.
Everyone walked past with doubtful gazes. At the same time, they were also somewhat vigilant.
They were worried that it was a trap or some scheme.
But there was nothing … Nothing.
When Chen Zhao passed by the tree spirit, he stopped.
"Who do you work for?" Chen Zhao asked the tree spirit.
"I work for a god, but I haven't received payment in a long time."
"If I want you to sell yourself, what price do I have to pay?"
"You definitely don't have what I want."
"How about this?" Chen Zhao took out a bottle. It was filled with green liquid.
The giant tree's Dryad stretched out a thin branch and wrapped the green bottle around its branch.
"Happy to serve you, my master."
Everyone was stunned. They looked at Chen Zhao in surprise, and then at the tree spirit.
No way? How could he get the tree spirit's loyalty so easily?
It couldn't be a lie, right?
At that moment, the giant tree's Dryad pulled open its main trunk and revealed a tree hole. A green light flickered in the tree hole.
The tree spirit dug around in its chest and took out a ball of green light. It gave Chen Zhao.
"My master, please accept my Life Essence. This is the highest loyalty I can offer."
Chen Zhao put away the tree spirit's life essence.
Becky Lu Lisha looked at Chen Zhao in shock.
That works too?
She was also tempted. She looked at the tree spirit.
"Sir, do you accept a different boss? I can give you more benefits. Whatever he offered, I'll give you double. "
"Sorry, Madam, betrayal is not allowed."
Chen Zhao chuckled at Becky Lu Lisha, who had lost.
Becky Lu Lisha was somewhat unwilling. She looked at Chen Zhao again. "Give him to me. Name the price."
"Sorry, you can't afford it."
Lu Lisha could feel the malice and mockery in Chen Zhao's smile.
It was as if he was mocking her for overestimating herself.
Becky Lu Lisha turned around and left unhappily.
Chuckling, Chen Zhao looked at Becky Lu Lisha's back. "Wait for me here," he said to the dryad.
Chen Zhao really liked the giant treant. He had a close relative in his family, Forest Shepherd Eugenice.
These plant-type supernatural creatures all had one thing in common, and that was peace.
Even Eugenice from Hell, even though he was Samuel's direct subordinate, Eugenice wasn't evil at all.
"Master, it's very dangerous ahead."
"I know." Smiling, Chen Zhao turned around and waved.
Everyone in the team was clearly distancing themselves from him.
From afar, Famirati gave Chen Zhao a look.
She didn't say it, but Chen Zhao could roughly understand what she meant.
Of course, Gaia was also being ostracized.
Smiling bitterly, Gaia walked with Chen Zhao.
"You ruined my chance to earn some extra money."
"Don't worry. Soon, you'll have a chance to earn extra money."
"Why?"
"Because I've roughly guessed where this is."
"Where is this?"
"The legendary Treasure Island, the place where the Pirate King plundered his entire life's treasures."
Gaia's eyes brightened. "You mean, the Pirate King's treasures are here?"
"I don't know if there are treasures, but I know it's very dangerous here."
Just then, Chen Zhao suddenly noticed a strange rock by the side of the road.
Rather than a rock, it was more like a stone statue's head.
Chen Zhao walked to the side and picked up the statue. It was a very delicately carved stone head.
Chen Zhao tossed it in his hand. It was a bit heavy.
Judging from the stump of the neck, it seemed to have been chopped off by a sharp weapon.
However, the sharp weapon did not have enough strength, nor was it sharp enough.
It only went less than an inch into the neck, but because of the force, the entire neck was shattered.
"Why did you pick this up? Is it a statue of a famous historical figure? Or is it very valuable? "
"No, I think it's worthless."
"Is it a magic tool?"
"Not really."
"Then why did you pick it up?"
"Because it was originally a living human."
"Human? You mean a human who was petrified? "
"Probably."
"Petrification probably doesn't last long, especially after the victim dies. The body will also turn back into flesh and blood. Looking at this head, it's at least a hundred years old."
"What if it's the legendary Medusa?"
"You're saying that the original owner of this head was petrified because he faced Medusa?"
"If the information I have is true, the dangerous existence on this island is Medusa."
Just then, the others also noticed some stone statues by the side of the road.
These stone statues were very strange. They didn't look like ordinary art.
They looked more like the expression of a panicked person. Most of them were like that.
Chen Zhao and Gaia also found many stone statues by the side of the road, which confirmed their guess.
Suddenly, there was a scream.
Chen Zhao saw a spiritualist covering his neck.
His neck had been pierced by a stone spear.
Chen Zhao looked over and saw a group of violent gnomes in the forest.
However, they were different from the gnomes that had attacked them last night.
A portion of these tyrannical gnomes had petrified.
Some only had small parts, such as their hands and feet, but some had extremely large areas of petrification.
However, some Tyrannical Gnomes had a very large petrification area, almost more than 80% of their body surface area.
They were also much stronger than the ones that had attacked them last night.
They were more agile, ferocious, and dangerous.
The gnomes from last night were like half-grown monkeys.
But the weakest of the petrified gnomes attacking them now had the destructive power of an adult baboon.
The gnomes swam in the grass or jumped on the treetops.
In the blink of an eye, someone was injured again.
Almost everyone in the team had missed the power of the petrified gnomes.
Only then did they realize that the gnomes attacking them this time were completely different from the ones last night.
