41. Island


The first step out of the portal was empty, and I threw myself forward with my unsteady center of gravity and fell into the sea with a pop.The cool water soaked most of my body, and a wave came from behind, and Ying Li and I both fell into the sea.It was dark all around, but the night sky was full of stars, I struggled to get up from the sea, the light around me was very dim, I could only see dozens of meters away, all around was seawater, but the water level here was only waist-deep, I was worried that Ying Li would be choked by the water, and quickly scooped up Ying Li who fell into the water, at this time she was wet with sea water, and also choked on some sea water.When I picked her up, she instinctively coughed violently a few times, I patted her on the back, she struggled with her hands a few times, and then slowly opened her eyes, with some confusion in her bright pupils, and her face returned to its previous ordinary appearance, and the first thing she said when she woke up was to ask me: "Jijia, where are we?"

”"I don't know, maybe near an island."

I said to Ying Li.I kept looking around, but unfortunately I couldn't see farther away at night, and I could hardly hear anything except the sound of the waves.In the quiet of the night, there was only the sea around me and Yingli.I looked up at the starry sky and tried to determine my position from the star map, but the only starry sky I was familiar with was the starry sky of the Pai Plateau, the city of El, and the imperial capital, and if I were too far away from these three places, I could only roughly deduce which position I was in, but I had no way of knowing where I was.We were standing in the sea, Ying Li stretched out her hand and rubbed her head, she tried to remember the previous events, and said to me with a distressed expression: "Have we left Haiyuan City?"

Why can't I remember anything?

”I reached out and touched her forehead, and found that she didn't seem to have any other problems other than a brief period of amnesia, but thinking about the beautiful face that had just appeared on her, I couldn't help but ask with some concern, "How do you feel about this long story?"

Does your head still hurt?

”Her hand covered mine, probably moved by my tenderness at the moment, and her face flushed slightly, as if she had forgotten the danger around her for a moment in such a strange environment.She looked at me gently, shook her head vigorously, and then asked me with a happy face, "So we're out of trouble?"

”"Well, sort of!

You're really fine?

”I said in some vague terms.I don't know if it's a way out, I don't even know what this place is, but in my opinion, if you haven't escaped from the sea, you should still be in the sphere of influence of the Cana Sea Clan.Ying Li stood in front of me and said to me, "I don't seem to remember what happened before, I just remember that we went to Areliel's funeral. ”Perhaps she was a little frightened when she heard the sound of waves around her in the dark night, so she stretched out her hands around my neck and tried to hug me, but at this time, she saw Katerina and Karantso cross the portal, and she was so frightened that she quickly withdrew her hand.Caterina and Karantso carried Helena and Becky on their backs, and walked to me on waist-deep water, the warriors have very good balance and coordination, so they stepped out of the portal and did not fall into the sea like me, but they saw that Ying Li had regained consciousness, and they all looked at Ying Li's face, and Ying Li unconsciously reached out and touched his face, looking at them with a puzzled expression.She asked Katerina, "Why are you all looking at me with such strange eyes?"

What happened to Helena and Becky?

”Caterina smiled and said to Ying Li, "Don't worry, they're fine, they're just passing out for the time being." ”A group of barbarian slaves armed with heavy crossbows also came out of the portal one after another, and these barbarian slaves stepped into the knee-deep water, looking a little flustered."

Don't panic, we may be near the beach of an island, or at worst on a tidal island, and now it is in the high tide phase, so there is nothing to be afraid of."

Justes was in the middle of the water, his lower body changing into a fishtail full of bone spurs, and he poured a handful of seawater on his face, letting his loose hair go back to his head.The barbarian slaves who had fought on the Waskey plane quickly calmed down.Ruka, the Minotaur, also walked out with a huge shield, but behind him was dragging a huge ice coffin, which slipped out of the portal, fell into the sea, and then floated on the sea, and the sea water around the ice coffin immediately condensed into ice hanging.Immediately after that, a group of orc warriors ran out of the portal, they looked a little embarrassed, the armor of the magic pattern was full of electric fire, and even some of the orc warriors were injured, these orc warriors were not out of the battle, and as the orc warriors withdrew from the altar, the battle immediately spread to the door of the portal.A Cana guard with a trident in his hand just showed half of his body from the portal, and was immediately pierced through the throat by a sword from Justus guarding the portal, and the bone sword leaked out of the back of the head of the Cana guard, and the body of the Cana guard hung on the portal, and immediately several Cana guards rushed to rush out of the portal, but they were smashed back by a huge halberd shield in the hand of the Minotaur Ruka.A trident as thick as an adult's arm stabbed out of the portal, just stabbing the ancient oath of the minotaur Ruka, and the huge force from the trident knocked the minotaur Ruka back more than ten meters away with the human shield, and the minotaur Ruka's body stirred up a large splash in the seawater.The Garna guard on the other side of the portal, who can easily knock the Minotaur Ruka away with a simple thrust skill, is at least a second-turn powerhouse.The cyan arm was covered with scales, and at the moment when Justes's bone sword stabbed out, the other party seemed to retract his arm with a sense of feeling, and then a delicate round shield with a nautilus pattern appeared from the portal, Justes's bone sword could not penetrate this round shield, and then a thick arm followed and emerged from the portal.The barbarian slaves also relieved themselves at this time, holding heavy crossbows in their hands, and pulled out huge crossbow arrows from the crossbow arrow box and put them into the crossbow trough, holding giant crossbows and aiming at the portal, several giant crossbow arrows turned into white light and flew out, and the arm holding the small round shield retracted from the portal without hesitation, and before we could make any next move, the portal that opened on the sea surface closed silently.When the portal disappeared, the corpse of the Kana guard on the portal was strangely disconnected from the waist, and the torso exposed on the portal side was left here, and the other half of the fishtail was probably left on the altar side, and the spatial power easily cut him in two."

Ruka, how did you bring this thing out?"

Justes looked closer, frowning at Ruka.The minotaur Ruka looked confused, touched his hairy head and said angrily, "I don't have it!"

I don't know what's going on, but this thing probably slipped out of its own after me. ”Half of Justes' body sank into the water, and he said to all of us, "Well, it's not an option to soak in the sea all the time, I'll see if there are any islands around that I can live in." ”After saying that, the huge fishtail made a splash, and the whole person plunged into the sea, turning into a thin line on the pitch-black sea, and soon disappeared.We have been sailing for more than three months in Vasqi, and we have a relatively certain understanding of the monsters in the sea.Karantso carried the unconscious Becky on his shoulders and said to everyone: "Don't stay here, get out of here as soon as possible, although this is a shallow water, the blood of the Cana people can easily attract nearby predators, maybe large sharks, maybe some other sea beasts." ”At this time, I began to give the barbarian slaves the water-walking magic one after another, and the barbarian slaves stood up with their hands on the water, but there were waves on the sea, and these barbarian slaves needed to keep their balance when they stood on the sea, otherwise their bodies would keep swaying as if they were drunk.The orc warriors were obviously more accustomed to the environment, and they were able to stand very steadily after standing on the surface of the sea one by one.As the only second-turn powerhouse in the team, Karantso was going to lead the orc warriors to explore the way, so she handed the unconscious Becky into my hands, and then sniffed vigorously against the sea breeze, pointing in one direction and saying to me, "There is a smell of palm trees over there, let's go that way." ”Becky, who was also very slim, was actually much heavier than Ying Li, she was wearing tight leather armor, some of the plump parts were tight, I let her hands on my shoulders, her face buried in the back of my neck, her seaweed-colored curls spread out.Surrounded by orc warriors, I, Win Li, and Katarina, with Helena on her back, followed behind Karantso, intending to find the palm-fringed island in the middle of the night, with the barbarian slaves following behind.Ruka the Minotaur chased after me and asked, "Jiga, what are we going to do with this?"

”He was referring to the ice coffin floating in the sea, which presumably still contained Princess Ireliel.I hesitated for a moment and said, "Oh, forget it here, let's take it with me for the time being." ”Ruka took out a rope to tie the ice coffin and let it float and drag it on the surface of the sea.Less than a hundred meters away, we saw several triangular fins swimming silently past us, and the huge dark figures were clearly a group of ferocious megalodons, and a moment later, the sound of water splashing came from where we had stayed, and it seemed that those megalodons were eating half of the body of the Jana guard.For these megalodons, the Cana Sea Clan is also an absolutely delicious meat, which should be difficult to eat in normal times.Although I wasn't afraid of those megalodons, I couldn't help but glance at Ying Li next to me when I heard the sound of their predation.Holding Becky's round thighs, the feeling of reaching the palm of the hand is very tight, although it is separated by a layer of tight leather pants, but the touch is still worth savoring.Becky's arm on my shoulder suddenly moved slightly, and then I felt her even breathing stop for a few seconds, and although it immediately returned to normal, I already knew she was awake.Ying Li also looked at me in surprise, she and Becky have a magical contract with a soul link, and they have a heart-to-heart connection with each other, so naturally they know Becky's current situation better than me.Becky's heartbeat was also speeding up a little, and I could even feel the pounding in my back.It didn't take long for the megalodons to chase after us, presumably drawn by the blood dripping from the sea by the wounded orc warriors, who followed behind us, stirring up a splash from time to time.If it weren't for the fact that the shark meat was so fishy and old, I would have wanted the barbarian slaves in the back to shoot a few of them.These barbarian slaves with good appetites didn't care about this, the reason why they didn't dare to act rashly was because they were afraid that the fierce battle would make the water walking magic effect on their bodies disappear, and they were not very good at swimming, so the barbarian slaves standing on the sea naturally did not dare to do it casually.Soon Justes returned, however, and pointed out to us that there was a large island ahead, and that we were actually in the shallow waters of the island, and that we could touch the coastline about a thousand meters further on.Now that there is an island in front of me, I feel a little more confident in my heart for no reason, and I feel the thunder and lightning element in my body, and I am still in a state of disorder at the moment.The power of thunder and lightning in the right shoulder blade fused with the Thunder Seed became empty, and I couldn't extract a single trace of it, and for the time being, I couldn't inject the power of thunder and lightning into the Hammer of the Space-Time Breaker, so I couldn't open the portal to Xinliu Valley.At this time, we naturally need to find a place to live, and at least stay here until I recover a little bit of thunder and lightning.It wasn't easy for me to draw on the power of thunder and lightning, at least not to recover quickly through meditation.After Justus returned, without saying a word, he led a team of barbarian slaves to intercept the megalodons that were following us, the megalodons swimming in the shallow waters were almost stranded, but the sharks still did not give up chasing us.However, they didn't realize that the catastrophe had descended, and then the group of megalodons was killed by Justus with the barbarian slaves, who were so large that it would take at least two barbarian slaves to carry them.Finally, a dark color obscured the starry sky adjacent to the sea, a forest on the island, and we all landed on the beach and sat down on the beach, and then we had a feeling of the aftermath of the disaster.
