Chapter 187 [Sand Island] Natives Encounter Twilight!

As soon as he stepped onto the land of [Sand Island].

Shane immediately felt that the secret power in the air around him became thin and heavy.

Whether it was the process of absorbing secret power or controlling secret power, there would be great resistance.

"Is this the restriction on [Sand Island]?"

Shane sighed to himself: "It is indeed unusual."

"However, it seems that there is not only a restriction on secret power..."

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

He took a step down and left a deep footprint on the sand.

At this moment, Shane was able to confirm that the gravity on this island was much greater than that of the outside world.

Even with his strong body, he felt a little uncomfortable. If it were some delicate secret pathers, it would be difficult to move forward.

Shane turned his head and asked with concern.

"An, are you okay?"

Behind him, the armored knight's movements were originally a little difficult.

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

Shane knew that this was because An had activated the "sky form" of his armor, greatly reducing his own gravity, which just happened to offset the gravity field of the Sand Island.

However, it was obviously unrealistic to want to fly in this environment.

Seeing this scene, Shane was surprised.

The restrictions on the secret power on the [Sand Island] did not seem to take effect on the magic pattern equipment?

But at this moment, a little head popped out from the gap in An's armor.

"Huh? Where is this?"

The fairy Tracy said in a daze: "Why is there sand all around?"

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

Tracy said honestly: "I had been sleeping in An's armor before, and I woke up here."

An's body also stiffened slightly.

How could he have thought that Tracy was so brave that she dared to sleep in his armor?

If she was infected with his bad luck, wouldn't Tracy be...

Shane also realized this.

But after carefully checking up and down, he found that besides being affected by the restrictions of the Sand Island, Tracy had no other symptoms except being a little depressed.

But think about it carefully, "bad luck" is something mysterious and cannot be explained by common sense, so naturally there will be no observable symptoms.

Now that Tracy is here, we can't send her to the Black Swan again.

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

So, after warning her, Xia En continued to move deeper into the Sand Island.

Only after stepping on the Sand Island in person can you feel the vastness of this island.

And the scene in front of you seems to be the same lonely desert that never changes, and there is no end in sight.

About half an hour later, the sea behind them has disappeared, but the scene around them seems to have not changed at all.

Moreover, as the two people and the fairy go deeper, the influence of gravity and restrictions is still deepening.

The air is getting hotter and hotter.

At this time, a gust of wind suddenly blew, raising a large piece of yellow sand, and 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 uninhabited area.

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

After walking forward for a while, Shane caught a glimpse of something lying in the empty desert.

Shane walked forward slowly, carefully, and soon saw its appearance.

It was a mummy!

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

But the water in his body had completely disappeared, and his dry body was tightly attached to his bones, like a skeleton.

And looking closely, there were 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.

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

"It can't be that they died of thirst here?"

Since they all knew the climate and environment of [Sand Island], these pirates should have prepared means to deal with it in advance.

An was about to write on the sand to express his opinion, but heard Tracy say.

"An thinks they might be poisoned."

"Huh?"

Not only An, but even Shane looked at Tracy in surprise.

It was not because of this guess itself, but Tracy seemed to understand An's meaning without communication.

Tracy's reaction to them was a little strange: "Am I wrong?"

Shane looked at An with an inquiring look.

An shook his head silently.

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

Tracy raised her little chin and said proudly: "This is the innate ability of our fairy clan, called [Capture the Voice]."

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

Shane looked at An with a strange expression.

This kind of voice being captured always feels weird.

Tracy said: "An is thinking now... Captain, don't look at me with this look!"

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

Shane seemed to see his ashamed and angry expression through his armor.

This thought made Shane laugh.

‘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 the [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 really become 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..."

Tracy 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 check the mummy.

However, he had just turned the pirate's mummy over.

A small black shadow suddenly rushed towards 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.

clang!

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

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

At this time, Xia En was able to see the full picture of the black shadow.

This is a black scorpion, only the size of a palm, but its body is extremely hard, like steel.

Shane took out a dagger and slashed it casually.

There was a crisp 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.

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

It is obvious that 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 An and Tracy when he heard a sharp sound of breaking through the air behind him.

call out!

Phew!

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

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, and cut off the flying arrows with one strike.

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 on these weirdos were in tatters, almost blending in with the color of the desert.

This also caused Xia En to be unable to see their appearance clearly, and 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 was 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 an outsider avoids the attack of the poisonous scorpion, he will be shot by the bow and arrow from behind.

Shane glanced back at the arrows. Their arrowheads were hollow, and they also emitted the smell of bitter almonds.

Toxin is obviously one of the killer weapons of these natives!

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

Normally speaking, given the size of [Island of Sand] 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 indigenous people...

Is this really just plain bad luck?

Or……

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

However, now 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].

All of a sudden.

A ball of light appeared next to him.

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

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

And with 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's no reason not to take advantage of it.

Sure enough.

After seeing this ball of light, the movements of the natives paused slightly.

The leader seemed to speak and talk to his companions around him.

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

Not long after.

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

Seeing this, Xia En was happy.

"There's a chance!"

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

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

Thinking about it this way, encountering natives may not necessarily be a manifestation of bad luck?

But in the next moment.

Boom!!!

A blood-colored stream of light suddenly fell from mid-air.

The place where it fell was exactly in the center of the natives.

Accompanied by screams and roars, a violent explosion broke out where the blood light fell, and a large amount of blood, flesh and broken limbs were thrown out.

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

The remaining natives screamed and quickly fled.

Xia En raised his head and looked at the source of the blood-colored light.

In the air, a tall young woman with the coldness of ice and snow and the beauty of a night-blooming flower was suspended.

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

In this high-gravity environment, the fact that you can fly is a symbol of strength!

In the woman's hands, there were two twin-sister guns.

The previous stream of light was shot out from it.

This beautiful woman looked around and took in everyone present.

Her mouth was curled in a smile, and her smile was beautiful, but her eyes were only as cold as a hunter treating prey.

The moment he saw this woman, Xia En's hair stood up all over his body, and an extremely strong sense of crisis rose in his heart.

This sense of crisis was even more intense than facing the [Thousand Changes] at that time!

Characteristics of the blood clan, female, and extremely high rank.

Shane immediately remembered the owner of the [Burning Gold] that Feiya had mentioned - Twilight!

But how could he meet him by such a coincidence! ?

How long have they just been on the island!

And looking at Twilight's posture, it seems that she intends to kill everyone present!

Shane glanced at Ann and Tracy, and suddenly realized that Ann's doom that was enough to destroy a kingdom was not just talk.

"Run separately!"

Shane handed a [Glorious Amulet] to Ann without hesitation, and then ran in one direction.

In front of such a powerful enemy, running away together will only accelerate the process of death.

Running away separately may still have a glimmer of hope.

"Oh? There is an unexpected gain?"

In mid-air, looking in the direction of Shane, Twilight licked her lips: "The blood of this little guy seems to be very sweet..."

She flapped her wings and quickly chased after him.

Sensing Twilight's actions, Shane breathed a sigh of relief.

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

After swallowing the [Crimson Fruit] and bathing in dragon blood, his blood must have great appeal to the vampires.

At least it can prevent Twilight from chasing Ann and Tracy.

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

"Little guy, don't run away, come to your sister obediently..."

"I will love you well!"

At the same time as these words rang out, a blood-red light that made people's scalps numb had already fallen beside Shane!
