"You're going to follow me out of the island?" Stern asked, "yes" Thea nodded.

"Did you tell your father about this?" Stern continued.

"I told my father, and he agreed, and he said that as long as I follow you, I will definitely have a good future, and he will be satisfied if I come back to see him once or twice a year."

At this time, Higg also stepped forward and looked up at Stern solemnly, "Brother Andy, we dwarves have not lived in peace since we crossed the Arctic Ice to the continent of Kadia, although we fled to this small island and fought with goblins for more than two hundred years to defend our homeland.

I met you at the time of our life and death, it was you who saved our dwarf race, your ability is obvious to all, Xia wants to go out to see the outside world, he is still young and let him go out to break into it is also very good for him, so I also agreed to him, I said as long as your Uncle Andy agrees, go ahead, Xia will also take care of herself when she grows up, and I am more relieved to have Andy Brother you and such a powerful black brother in me."

Higg's heartfelt words touched Stern, "Uncle Higg, don't worry, I will leave with Thea, Sia is a very hard-working child, so soon became the number one warrior of your dwarf clan, I still have a lot of places to need him and Brother Hei to help in the future!".

Higg happily turned to Sia and said, "Sia don't hurry up and thank Uncle Andy, he promised to take you with him", Sia on the side reacted a little slower, and quickly eased up under Higg's reminder, and the excitement was overflowing, "Great, Uncle Andy, thank you for agreeing to take me out, I will definitely listen to you when I get outside, and I won't come nonsense." Seeing the honest and honest Xia's happy appearance, both Higg and Stern had a relieved smile on their faces.

The next morning to get on the ship for a trial, Xia came to the foot of the hill early to wait for Stern, last night Stern told him to let him go with him, thinking about going to the outside world on a teak boat, he was a little nervous and a little expectant, last night was excited all night and did not sleep.

3/30, there are three more points of aura in the Spirit Gathering Tower, and Stern can't help but go into the Creation God Space every day like a duty, although he has experienced countless life and death tests before, but he has never seen such a magical thing in the Creation God Space. As soon as he left the cave, he set out with Thea towards the eastern coast, where the rising sun turned the morning glow a fiery red, and the reflection of the blue sea formed a beautiful scene.

Stern went to the stern of the ship and untied the cable that was connected to the rocks on the shore, then went to lower the canvas, and left the shore with Thea. The wind on the surface of the sea was mild, but it was enough to prop up the sails and let it move forward, and the rudder was very easy to control, and the direction was very precise, and Stern took the compass he had taken from the big ship in his hand and followed the above directions to start the day's trial. The teak boat rode the wind and waves, and the waves crashed against the side panels of the boat, causing the hull to shake slightly, but it could not stop its progress.

In the evening, Stern returned to the east coast in a teak boat, jumped off the deck, and re-fastened the cable tied to the rocks.

Back on the hill, night began to fall, and the usual dinner began. Higg came to Stern's side, "Brother Andy, I heard from the people on duty on the coast that today's trial voyage went very well, when are you going to leave next?", Stern touched his chin and replied, "The day after tomorrow, tidy up tomorrow, and leave the day after tomorrow."

Higg nodded, "Well, then you and we will only have two days together, and we will always welcome you when we have the opportunity to come here again in the future." "I'll definitely come back in the future, Uncle Higg, I'm lucky to have met you on the island, otherwise I don't know when I'll be able to leave the island, and I'm here to thank you all for your help to me."

Higg shook his head and said, "Brother Andy doesn't need to be so polite, you have helped us so much, this is what we should do, by the way, I have something to tell you." "Uncle Higg, you say, I'll listen."

"Before our ancestors were forced to leave Pompeii, the living conditions of the people were good for two main reasons.

The first is that the industriousness of our dwarves has given us a rich life.

The second is that when we came to Pompeii from the other side of the arctic ice field, we brought a lot of treasures, and it was these treasures that allowed us to quickly establish ourselves in Tucker Town in peaceful times, but due to the weakening of the Cadia Empire and the turmoil of wars, our wealth was coveted by some well-wishers in Tucker Town, and since then the village of Pompeii, where we have lived for a long time, is no longer peaceful.

My ancestors fled Pompeii, but they didn't take much of their value with them, and there were many treasures hidden in the mines of Mir, which are very secret and difficult to find, and I wonder if they have been discovered to this day."

As he spoke, Higg took out an old piece of parchment from his bosom and handed it to Stern, "This is a map of the mines of Pompeii, if you have time to take Thea with you when you go back, see if there are really many treasures there, you can keep those treasures if you find them, if someone else discovers them first, then forget it." ”

Pompeii is located on the southern edge of the Far North Ice Field, and it takes about a month to walk east through Scott City and then north to Tucker Town. Stern thought that since Pompeii had treasures, there was no reason not to go, not to mention that he could hold as many treasures as he had in the storage room now, and it was impossible that he couldn't even fit his storage room.

"Uncle Higg, when I return to the mainland, I will definitely go over to take a look, I have been to Tucker Town many times before, but Pompeii Village has not been to yet, next time I will go with Xia. After speaking, Stern opened the parchment and looked down, but he couldn't see anything now, so he casually stuffed the parchment into the space ring, which is mainly used to hold some small objects, and some valuables are safer to put into the creation space.

"Brother Andy, after the past winter, we dwarves have finally survived the most difficult moment, when we had no home, no food, now I think about it really makes me desperate, but in the future we will get better and better, this is all your credit, if you encounter any trouble outside in the future, as long as you need our help, no matter the end of the world, we will not hesitate to rush over to help you", they were very sad when they parted, they chatted for a long time before they went back to the cave to rest.
