Chapter Ninety-Seven: Life Has Always Been a Heavy Thing

"That's ...... What the? Several people looked at each other, each with bewilderment written on their faces, but Rebi was lost in thought when she heard the name, her brow furrowed tightly, desperately searching for the familiar term in her mind.

"I remember!" She screamed violently, and whenever it came to the knowledge in the books, the girl became extremely excited.

"[Alive Island], no, the full name should be [The Living Island From The Fantasy], or it can be called [Island of Life], isn't this a legend from an old fairy tale? What does it have to do with these two trolls? Worthy of being called the "Humanoid Autopathic Database", she has a special sensitivity to books and a pretty good memory, so in just a few seconds, she was able to tell exactly what she had read about the mysterious island.

"That's right, that's it." The ship's doctor looked at the little girl in surprise, "Do you remember what that legend is about?" ”

"I remember...... It is said that the "Island of Life" hides the secrets of life, but there is no trace of it on weekdays, and only on the day of the blessing of the gods, from the clouds and smoke of the sea, rushing through the waves and guards, and surviving the red tide, can you reach that mysterious island, and there, you will see the truth about life. "Lebby retells the old story, and although it is not detailed in some places, it has basically restored the description in the fairy tale." In that story, the protagonist finally succeeds in setting foot on the island of fate and resurrecting his lover. But what does that have to do with what you're doing? ”

The doctor looked at the two trolls who were gradually falling silent in the artillery fire, and said word by word, "These two guys are the body of [Alive Island]!" ”

"What?" Everyone was stunned.

"You're kidding, these are two creatures!" Lebby asked, puzzled, but looking at her expression, it was not so much questioning as asking for advice, and it was obvious that a strong curiosity had risen again.

"No one knows where these island turtles come from, but every few years, they attract each other, find each other in the ocean, and mate." The doctor spoke solemnly, noticing the strange expressions of the young men in front of her when she said the word "copulation".

"Their way of measuring time is very special, on their backs, they can grow a perennial plant, we call them 'turtle tree', the process of this plant from birth to death, is the cycle of island turtle action, when the last turtle tree falls, is when they start to look for each other."

Renault, who had fallen to the ground, twitched when he heard this, if he remembered correctly, the last tree on the turtle's back seemed to have been knocked down by himself, and he was still wondering how such a thick branch could be knocked down by him so easily.

"Even if that's it...... You still haven't explained why they're attacking these two poor island turtles. Reiby asked her question again.

"Pathetic?" The doctor sneered, "Knowledgeable girl, do you remember what that fairy tale about the 'Island of Life' is?" ”

Without waiting for Lebby to reply, she began to repeat herself: "'The island of spirits and lives is buried, wrapped in bones, and the spirits of the dead fly in the sky, singing the nursery rhyme of life. That's why we're doing these things now. ”

"But that's just a legend."

"No, it's not just legends." The doctor's expression became serious, "After the turtle tree falls, the island turtles will signal each other to mate, and once they have finished mating, disaster will happen!" ”

"This creature is very special, and when they survive alone, the ecosystem of the entire sea will be improved, and the products will be greatly abundant, and even the disasters will be reduced."

"But once they come into contact with each other, that's completely reversed. After they mated, that's when these two guys died. Instincts from ancient times will cause the lovers to devour each other, absorb each other, and eventually, they will become new beings - the mysterious, transcendent island of life and death. There is a saying that the birth of any life is accompanied by the arrival of death, and this is particularly evident in their race. No one can explain their changes, and perhaps only the ancient gods can give an answer, but unfortunately they have been dead for thousands of years. ”

"The birth of that island will be accompanied by the demise of countless living beings, it will absorb the life force of all living beings in the area, those small lives that have been blessed, will pay the heaviest price, maybe on that island will really give birth to a god with some great power, but we can't accept such a price, so whether it's legend or reality, we just need to eliminate these possibilities at the root."

The doctor said a lot in one breath, her breath was a little unsteady, and her chest rose and fell violently. She pointed to the figure bathed in cannon fire and said, "This is the fourth time, every time they appear, the captain will lead us to expel these two creatures who will bring disaster, but their resistance is also getting higher and higher, our magic cannon is almost unable to affect them, if this continues......" The doctor's sister sighed again, looking lonely.

"In that case...... Why not ask for a helping hand from the Wizards Guild? The S-level mages in each guild, or the Ten Holy Magiers, their strength should be enough to solve your predicament. Mira, who had been listening silently, suddenly spoke up.

"There's something else involved...... I'm sorry, but I can't tell you about that. ”

In the distance, the expulsion of the giant island turtle finally came to fruition, and the innate instinct seemed to have a certain time limit, and under the continuous interference of the secret treasure hunters, the two huge shadows finally slowly walked in opposite directions, lonely and lonely......

"Why......" Mira whispered softly as she looked at the backs of the two trolls, "is it destined not to be blessed because they are aliens?" ”

"Perhaps, even the greatest love, if it takes place at the wrong time and in the wrong place, is likely to have disastrous consequences, it may destroy itself, it may destroy others, in short, the fiery affection will turn into a flame, swallowing up everything that is hated or loved."

"Some love is destined to be the beginning of tragedy."

Renault, who had been slumping on the deck and finally regaining some strength, struggled to sit up, looked at the two big ones who had brought them back to their companions, and sighed softly.
