Volume 1 • Across the Seven Seas [076] Witch's Blood

Seven days later......

In front of the Black Knife Pirate fleet, an island looms.

It's very, very, very small, so small that it doesn't even show its existence on the charts.

But the island is Anna's home, and she lives deep in the island's forest, and most of the time, she doesn't go out of the forest, and her only appearance is captured by pirates.

On the Black Knife, Mark was exercising his newly exchanged electromagnetic force field, and frowned slightly when he saw Kojima.

In front of Hawkins, he really doesn't have any cards, and he was knocked away again and again during the live broadcast, but it depends on the object, if he is put in front of a group of ordinary people, I am afraid that standing still, those people will not be able to hurt him.

Different creatures see the world very differently.

Characters at different levels see the world in a completely different way.

When ordinary people see the island in front of them, they don't feel anything unusual, they only think that it is an ordinary island, inconspicuous and nothing special.

But in Mark's eyes, it was different, above the island, there seemed to be a black whirlpool turning, the sun was shining, but the forest gave him an eerie feeling.

Is this really Anna's little beauty's residence?

Mark decisively opened the chat group.

【I love my family】

Mark: Sister Anna, is this really your home? (screenshot)

Anna: It's home, that's great!

She dreamed every night that she was back at home, lying on a familiar thatched bed.

Mark:...... That one...... Are you sure?

He was cautious when typing, after all, this island was too weird.

Mourning Night: Mark, what did you find?

Mark: There's something wrong with that island, it's scary.

Anna: Terrible? Why, I've lived there since I was a kid, and it's just a very ordinary island.

Mark: Open the screenshot first!

Anna opened the screenshot and entered in surprise: How can there be a big maelstrom on the island?

Mourning Night: Mark, how can what you see be different from what I see? (screenshot)

Mark: Because I'm a sorcerer and you're not!

The picture seen in the eyes of the sorcerer is inherently different from that of ordinary people, for example, people with curses on their bodies often seem to have a cursed aura coming out of their bodies, looming.

If you use the shooting function of the chat group to shoot, you will see a picture of a person with colors coming out.

And ordinary people can't take pictures.

The chat group retrieves the images seen by the parties, so the pictures taken by Mark are different from the pictures taken by Mourning Night.

Victor: Mark, what does that vortex represent?

Mark: It's hard to say, but it's the first time I've seen this happen.

Anna: Could it be that I didn't show up until I left?

Mark: No, you look at the forest, don't you have a very bad feeling, I can be sure that the situation on this island, at least for a long time.

Anna: How so...... Could that be that the whirlpool is not dangerous?

Mark: Sister Anna, will you believe what you say?

Anna:......

She couldn't even convince herself.

After all, in the past few days, she has also studied well in the forum.

Especially the knowledge of many spell masters, I don't know why, she can easily learn it, and even touch the analogy, and even a lot of pharmacological knowledge written by Hawkins can be easily understood.

Mourning Night: Why don't you let the captain see it?

Hawkins: I'm already watching, but this is the first time I've encountered this kind of whirlpool.

The last time they passed through this area, they didn't pass through this small island, so they didn't notice a small island.

Mark: Captain, could it be some kind of curse, you say?

Hawkins: It's hard to say, keep all the ships at a distance from the island, let's go up and have a look, is Anna coming?

Anna: Yes, I'm going!

Mourning Night: Can I go?

She exchanged for a set of exoskeleton armor, plus many modern weapons, even the average pirate is no match for her, but Hawkins has never allowed underage combat, so she can only hit moving targets to this day.

Hawkins: Yes, but if there's any danger, I'll send you back first.

Mourning Night said helplessly: I know.

Arthur: Then I'm going too.

Hawkins: Anyone who wants to go, but I'll send you back in case of danger.

Next, Victor and others signed up one after another, which is basically equivalent to setting off in a group.

Hawkins was in the isolated island laboratory, glanced at the dragon transformed by the Golden Eight Institute, put down the forty-meter-long scalpel in his hand, and left the laboratory directly.

Black Knife.

The group stepped out of the cabin, just as the Black Knife was about to reach the island's beach.

When the Black Knife docked, the tentacles on the bottom of the ship stretched out one after another, extending to the beach like a bridge, and Hawkins and the others stepped on the tentacles to go ashore.

"Finally back. ”

Anna looked at the familiar sand and couldn't help but cry.

When she was captured by pirates, she thought she would never be able to return home and see the island again.

Mourning Miye comforted: "Anna, don't cry, isn't this already back, let's go, go to your house to see." ”

"Well, follow me. Anna wiped her eyes and smiled with tears in her eyes.

Hawkins and Mark walked at the back, Mark looked up at the whirlpool in the sky, and felt very bad and said, "Captain, this is so wrong, Anna, she is really an ordinary person?"

"Who knows. Hawkins was noncommittal.

Originally, he thought that Anna was a bit pretty.

In a long period of time, the continuous arrangement and combination of human genes will inevitably lead to the emergence of various beauties.

These beauties are all the result of genes that happen to be in line with human aesthetics, and when they are acquired, they are the result of proper food intake.

But a natural beauty as perfect as Anna is still extremely rare.

Her skin is delicate and fair, and there is no mole on her body, and her face is not a standard melon seed face, but there are no dead ends with her facial features, and even the blood vessels under the skin have a special beauty.

There is also temperament, her temperament is so good, just like a clear spring in the deep mountains that is not stained with tackyness, and the snow that is not stained with dust on the high mountains.

Purity, innocence, and I see pity.

Hawkins has repeatedly lamented that her beauty is a miracle of nature, but now observing this small island, he is a little skeptical, is a beauty like Anna really a natural creation?

As everyone entered the woods, Anna gradually became lively, trotting in the woods from time to time, picking mushrooms and matsutake mushrooms, and threatening to invite Hawkins and others to dinner when she returned home.

If she is a little rabbit who misses her hometown and I feel sorry for her in the eternal space, then she is now a deer released back into nature.

Mourning Night was also enthusiastic to pick all kinds of wild vegetables with Anna, and the two of them laughed happily from time to time in the forest.

"This dish is delicious, I used to find a lot of it in the woods outside the town of House, but unfortunately it seems that we have eaten it up, and I never found this dish again. Mourning picked a wild vegetable and squatted on the ground and whispered to Anna.

Anna smiled: "This is a blue checker, they are very smart, if their companions are eaten too much, they will emit a special smell, the smell can travel far, far away, and will drive away nearby insects, and finally all the seeds will be taken by insects farther away to take root and sprout, so you will not find them." ”

"Well, I don't know. Mourning was surprised.

Hawkins smiled slightly, the characteristics of this blue grid dish are obviously the result of natural selection and survival of the fittest.

After a half-hour walk, everyone arrived at Anna's house.

The house is a bit too simple, made entirely of many small branches bound by vines, and the top of the house is thatched and stone.

Inside, it can be said that the house is surrounded by four walls, but there are several sets of clothes, and there is a box that looks like a lot of value.

"Anna, that's what ...... Your home?" Mourning Night said in disbelief.

Anna sat down on the box very skillfully and nodded, "Yes, I grew up here since I was a child, and I finally came back." ”

"But there's nothing here, what should you do when you take a shower?" Wai Miya couldn't help but ask.

Anna laughed: "There is a small pool not far away, and I take a bath there. ”

"!! outside," Mourning was shocked.

Although she was an orphan, she was cared for by an older orphan since she was a child, and there used to be a big sister who took care of her and other girls before she got married, so she bathed in the house all the time.

Anna said disapprerovingly, "yes, no one will come here anyway." ”

"You can take a shower outside......" Mourning Night is still unacceptable.

Hawkins asked, "What's in the box, can you tell me if you don't mind?"

"I don't know, but my mom told me that when I'm an adult, I'll be able to open it. Anna shook her head.

Mark said unexpectedly, "So you can't open it now?"

"Well, it can't be opened, I tried it when I was bored, and it didn't work at all. Anna nodded.

Hawkins said lightly: "Try it now." ”

"Okay. ”

Anna is not so afraid of Hawkins now, especially after learning a lot of what Hawkins has taught at the forum, and in her heart Hawkins is a good person who is smart and knowledgeable.

So she wasn't prepared to refuse Hawkins' request.

However, when she tried to open the box, she was shocked to find that she could easily lift the lid.

The wooden box was opened, and a green glow was cast from inside the box.

The green light quickly coalesced into a human form.

"Mom!"

Anna looked at the human figure in the green light and wondered.

The green light seemed to lock onto Anna, and the humanoid smiled with satisfaction, saying, "My child, you have finally grown up, and I was worried that you would not survive to adulthood, but fortunately you did." ”

"Mom, aren't you dead?" asked Anna.

The green light suddenly did not hear it, and continued: "Anna, you listen well, in fact, we are not ordinary people, we have the power of our ancestors flowing in our blood, this power will increase with age, and when we are sixty years old, we will automatically grasp the unparalleled power, because only when we are old will we show extraordinary power, so we have been called witches by some bad people. ”

"Witch!"

Mark was surprised, looking at Anna as if he were looking at a rare species.
