"Time is running out, and if we continue to delay, we will probably have to brave the darkness to search for water. ”

There will be no clue for a while, and Eric is not dwelling on it, the most important thing at the moment is to find a water source.

"Let's move on, make sure to get back to the boat before dark, the island is weird and it's not a good idea to spend the night. ”

"Yes, Lord Viscount. ”

Walking along the collapsed buildings towards the center of the island, these buildings are so strange in style and style that it is impossible to see what they are really doing.

"Is it just a decoration or is it something else?"

Bourcho inherited the power of truth and was able to learn something that many people did not know. Although he was ignorant of the functions of these buildings, he became more sensitive to these unknowns after learning about some of the otherworldly objects.

"It's all rubble and bricks, and these buildings are rotten, so there's no need to be so nervous. ”

Knox heard Bourgeois muttering, and felt that Bourgeo was paying too much attention to these irrelevant things. Picking up a scrap brick casually, with a slight force with both hands, the brick broke directly from it, and even a few pieces of debris fell from the place where it was clenched.

"You see, even the bricks are rotting like this, and as long as they don't all fly into the sky and fall, even the walls won't stop us. ”

Seeing this situation, Bourcho also felt that he was a little overly worried, after all, they were all decaying and decaying, and it didn't matter what the original function was.

At most, the collapse can pose some threat to everyone, but they have already completed the process and cannot get up when they fall to the ground.

"Again, I'll see if I can find anything useful in the ruins. ”

Having said that, Bourgeois still felt a little uneasy in his heart. Secretly keeping an eye on the buildings around him, hoping to find a rune that he could understand.

Strange to say, there are many similar words engraved on these buildings, but they are all blurred. Even if the building is very well preserved, the handwriting looks as if something has scratched it.

And for Bourcho, who barely knows many languages, it is too stupid to translate a sentence according to the outline that he may not understand the language and words.

As we walked on, the buildings began to become denser and much more preserved, but instead of lessening the wear and tear of the text, even the outlines of the fonts became blurred.

Now, not only Bourcho, but everyone else has also discovered this problem.

"These buildings seem to have been deliberately erased, what do you say, Bourcho?"

Touching his finger to the words on the buildings, Eric asked, "These buildings seem to have been deliberately erased, what do you say, Bourcho?"

"Yes, Lord Viscount, the wear and tear of the previous words can be explained by too much time. But now in this situation, the further you go inside, the more complete the building is, the more blurred the text becomes, how can it not be normal."

Bourcho naturally insisted on this matter a long time ago, and after thinking about it for so long, he naturally felt tired.

"You're saying it's possible that these things are artificial?"

"Of course, Lord Viscount, it's just that the danger is still uncertain, after all, this relic has been abandoned for so long. ”

Bourgeo was not sure of the danger of these things, nor was he sure that they were not dangerous, but he clearly sensed the antiquity and strangeness of these things.

"Well, hurry up, and if we can't find any more water, we'll go back and wait until tomorrow morning. ”

Seeing that it was getting late and the light was a little dim, in the face of this strange ruins, Viscount Eric still planned to leave here for the time being, at least until tomorrow.

As I continued walking, the surrounding environment changed even more, and the surrounding trees were almost invisible, and some were only a few weeds.

There was a stone and brick paved avenue in front of it, although it was also in disrepair, leaving only fragments of a place, but there was a road anyway. It also means that there were creatures living here in the past, or at least some movement.

Stepping onto the avenue of broken bricks, Knox also picked up a piece of floor tiles. With a click, the floor tiles snapped, and they didn't look too sturdy.

"This thing is much stronger than the previous one, at least with obvious resistance. ”

Knox's arm strength was already much stronger than normal, and the floor tile should have been split from a full floor tile, but it was only two fingers wide.

If it was ordinary masonry, he didn't need to use force, and he could open it with both hands. But this floor tile still makes Knox feel a lot of resistance, which shows that this floor tile is not worse than ordinary masonry, and it can be slightly better.

What's more, this masonry has long been decayed, and the hardness is much smaller than before. This performance is enough to prove that the hardness of this brick and stone raw material or ruins is extremely high when it was first built.

"I'll recruit a few more full-point trainers later. ”

Knox muttered, dropping the brick aside.

"Captain Knox, have you hit a lot of these bricks?"

Looking at Knox's expression, Bourcho only felt a bad premonition.

"Of course, it's not a little hard, it's like a sponge. ”

Bourcho picked up a floor tile and knocked it towards the nearby building.

There was a dull thud, and a small hole was knocked out of the building, while the floor tiles were not damaged.

"The color and material of these two look similar, aren't they the same stone?"

If you experience the same wind and rain, the stone on the ground will not be so strong no matter how intact it is. What's more, the floor tiles that were picked up for testing have been split in half, and there will never be such a big gap.

"Maybe they're like steel, they're all different in hardness, or maybe they're just similar in length, not the same material?"

There are many things that look similar, and some of them may not have the same hardness even if they are the same material, and that's what Eric thinks.

"Lord Viscount, this is not certain, just by looking at it, you really can't tell the difference. Maybe the road wasn't built at the beginning, it was built late, so it didn't decay as quickly. ”

Bourcho didn't know why, but that didn't stop him from imagining. It's just that once the design is supernatural, as soon as all kinds of illogical things appear, it is not easy to estimate the greatest possibility.

"Ah, it's weird, it's so annoying. ”

Knox seemed a little annoyed, and these static dissonances made him more uncomfortable than directly encountering a strong enemy.

"Climb a little further along the road, and if you don't find it, you will return immediately. If we don't find it tomorrow, we can't afford to linger on this island. ”

Eric decided to do one last bit of exploration, and if he found a source of water, he would leave the island before it was too late.

"Lord Viscount, there may be a water source ahead, and the water vapor in the air has become active. Just ......"

Alex spoke again, this time with good news.

"Huh, you've found a water source?"

As soon as he heard this, Eric still didn't believe it. When you think about it, Aretz has gained the power to represent the sea, and it seems that there is nothing wrong with this.

"Yes, indeed. I could sense the moisture in the air, but because of the long storm and the ocean, the vapor was too active. The perception when I didn't get close was too vague for me to discern carefully. ”

Alez's ability is not perfect, although the sensing range is not far and the value is lower, but it is not to be underestimated.

"But there's bad news, Lord Viscount. It's not just the water vapor that grows, but with them comes the breath of power, the gray power. ”

"That's not a good thing......"

If there was that power in the water source ahead, according to the Storm Apostle's appearance of fearing a star, the water would definitely not be drinkable.

Or in a certain monster, not to mention whether it pollutes the water source, and no matter where the power comes from, the strength of this power is definitely not low, and it is inevitable that there will be a bitter battle.

What's more, whether the water in the water source can be used or not is still two words.

"What to do, what to do......"

This puts Eric in a dilemma: on the one hand, there is a necessary source of water, and on the other hand, there is a huge potential threat.

"Otherwise, let's give up, since there must be a carrier of that energy in front, it is inevitable that there will be a fierce battle. ”

"Lord Viscount, but this is not to back down for fear of a battle. Without this water replenishment, it is difficult to find it. ”

Knox was puzzled, it had come to this point, not finding a water source was actually a postponed death sentence, why care about a monster and give up hope.

Even if that monster can cause great damage.

"Knox, it's not about how strong the monster is. Strong, we can deal with it, even if we can't defeat it, it's no problem to divert the tiger from the mountain to get some water. ”

"But all of this is premised on our access to drinkable water, Knox. Once the water is not drinkable, then everything we do is in vain, it is better to leave before it is too early and find another way out. ”

Eric's expression was a little excited, a little annoyed, and he didn't want to give up the water source to his mouth, but there was nothing he could do.

"Wait, Lord Viscount. ”

Hearing Viscount Eric's explanation, Allets felt that the other party had confused what he was saying.

"That breath is not brought by water vapor, and it will not roll back into the water, maybe there are mutated monsters ahead, but it will definitely not pollute the water source. ”

"You're saying the water up front isn't polluted? ”

Viscount Eric was once again interested, and even though he had heard it clearly, he still asked Alerik to say it again.

Alex repeated what he had said, and Eric finally calmed down.

"In that case, why don't we go up? ”

At this time, Eric has given instructions, for the sake of water, even if it is to face the monster, why not?
