Chapter 8: The Mysterious Statuette!

"I feel your sincerity, Nichols. But you must be clear that deception and concealment are tantamount to betrayal in my eyes. You have to keep this firmly in mind whenever and wherever you are! ”

As he spoke, Zhou Qi flipped his hand and took out a mass of Abyssal Essentia, looked up at Nichols, and with a flick of his finger, the Abyssal Essentia came out of his hand and floated in front of it.

"I need to know more about the Void Essence and the Abyss. If you forget something, I hope you can remember it as soon as possible, and of course, the sooner the better! ”

"Hmm! Do your will, my lord. Nichols hurriedly stretched out his giant claws to grab the Abyssal Essentia in his palm and protect it firmly, a trace of panic flashed in his eyes. Then he bowed over Zhou Qi as never before, and his expression was indescribably respectful. Only then did it turn into a cloud of black gas, and it impatiently burrowed into the demon hunting mark and disappeared.

The corners of Zhou Qi's mouth twitched. This bastard is running so fast, there must be something to hide from the Void Essence. Anyway, Mr. Demon doesn't really think that his little bit of caution can hide from him, does he?

Hum! Even if this guy really becomes an Abyss Lord one day, will it be possible to escape from his palm?

Void Abyss? What a curious place!

Put the Void Essence thing aside. There was nothing to do, and Zhou Qi refined the corpse left by the gluttonous demon and the corpse of another void giant beast, "Scythe Head", one by one. Two more balls of spirit qi and one cloud of abyssal source essence were harvested. This time, the luck was not so good, not to mention the Void Essence, not even the Qi of the Immortals. From this point of view, Mr. Demon seems to be quite honest.

Since the Void Essence is very rare, as the saying goes, if the quality is insufficient, use the amount to make up for it!

Now that the search for mechs and contractors is over, perhaps it should be true that some Void Behemoths are being hunted!

"The unscrupulous master of this palace. Come out quickly, this place is so weird, it scares the baby to death. ”

Well? What is this witch going to do? Could it be that she found something? Receiving Luo Li's transmission, Zhou Qi gathered his thoughts, and his figure flashed out of the demon refining pot world.

At this moment, through the clouds swept by the storm in the distance, a faint glimmer of morning light was faintly visible in the sky. During the time I entered the demon refining pot, the sky was actually bright.

Not far away, I saw the local tyrant Jin Kaipu sitting on the beach with his tall body bowed, looking quite honest at a glance.

Facing the morning light, Luo Li stepped on its heavy shoulders with her bare white feet, staring into the distance. The sea breeze blew her hair fluttering, and the light gauze was tightly wrapped around her slender body, revealing her graceful curves.

A steel giant with a metallic sheen and a flower-like girl dressed in a thin veil against the backdrop of a cloudy sea. The whole picture is hazy and fantastical, and it is dizzying!

I'll go, this witch won't be deliberate, put on such a beautiful pose, it's really seductive. Zhou Qi took a deep breath and flew up to Cap's shoulder.

"Luo Li, have you found anything?"

"Humph! It's really an unscrupulous and boring host. Shouldn't you hold someone in your arms at this moment, shush them for warmth, or put on a dress for them or something? How can you ask this and that? ”

Really! Zhou Qi could only be speechless about this. What drama does this witch not know to chase recently? The style of painting has changed from bitter feelings to pure love.

But who can fully guess the witch's mind? That is, herself, if someone is confused by her delicate and cute appearance, I am afraid that I don't know how to die in the end.

Standing on Cap's shoulder at this moment, Zhou Qi realized that Luo Li didn't deliberately call herself out just to appreciate her beauty or blood.

Last night's light was obscure, and I didn't pay attention. At the moment, the beach is full of wrecks of ships! The sheer number is simply staggering!

The Dragon Triangle can be compared to the Bermuda Triangle, and it is really not in vain, and I don't know how many ships have fallen into it over the years. But strangely, why didn't these ships sink into the sea, but drifted ashore as if they were stranded?

Even if you get lost in the sea, you will never be able to land safely in the wind and waves like last night!

"Let's take a look." Zhou Qi stretched out his hand and patted Cap's hard head, this guy should also get up and move after pretending to be a "contemplative" for a night.

Follow the brighter and brighter skylight. Cap strode along the beach.

I didn't feel it when I was staring at it from a distance before, but now that I was watching it up close, Zhou Qi couldn't help but be secretly speechless. Along the coastline of the island, it can be called a shipwreck museum. From small fishing boats with single oars and solo sails to large 10,000-ton giant ships, it can be said that there is everything.

Most of them are civilian vessels. There are also quite a few warships and submarines.

In addition, there were even quite a few crashed planes. Old-fashioned propeller-cylinder single-engine aircraft, modern jet aircraft, there are many types and ages.

If the entire sea area of the Dragon Triangle is called a deep blue tomb, then this mysterious island is a complete graveyard!

"Master, have you noticed that you have not seen a single corpse along the road!"

Zhou Qi's eyebrows twisted slightly when he heard this. Indeed, as Luo Li said. Despite the fact that so many ships and planes were killed here, there was not a single body of the victims on the beach!

"Kep, you continue to look for a target later. Luoli, let's go to the island and have a look. As he spoke, Zhou Qi turned his gaze to the left.

Same as most subtropical islands. Right next to the edge of the beach is a dense wood. The subtropical trees tens of meters high are lush and green, and everything looks primitive and mysterious.

In other words, just looking at the lush woods makes the island feel like a lost world, left behind and living alone. However, seeing so many shipwrecks and planes in distress here, Zhou Qi still had a strong premonition in his heart.

The stolen mech must be on this island!

Even if something goes wrong. Take things as they come.

At the speed of himself and Luo Li, it doesn't take much time to explore by the way.

watched Cap turn into a stealth fighter and roar away. Before Zhou Qi could say hello, Luo Li had already screamed with joy and threw himself into his arms. Octopus-like entanglement screams tightly. It looks like my sister is sticking to you today.

Zhou Qi was helpless, so he could only reach out and hold her slender waist, and his body shook and flew into the jungle.

The forest in the early morning looks extremely peaceful. Everywhere you can see small beasts and wild mice coming out to feed. Without the salty smell of the sea breeze, the slightly humid air smells unusually fresh.

However, not long after moving forward, Zhou Qi had to stop.

In the field of vision, a lamp niche (a street lamp with a roof) appeared!

How can there be a light niche on this graveyard-like island? Zhou Qi couldn't help but feel surprised.

"Master, this object looks a little old. It is by no means like it has been renovated in recent years. ”

"Hmm." Zhou Qi nodded, convinced of Luo Li's words.

The light niche that appears in front of you reminds you of the street lamps used to light the doors of Japanese temples at first glance. The shape of the top of the small Buddha hall, the hollow four-hole partition window, even the style is very similar.

Judging from the traces of erosion on the stone lampholders and columns, the age is very old, and it is estimated that it is at least more than a thousand years!

Could it have been built by shipwreck survivors? Zhou Qi couldn't help but have this idea in his heart, but then denied it.

Although the lamp niche in front of me is a little broken, the craftsmanship is very good. If it is a survivor, who is too busy to survive after escaping at sea, how can he have spare time to deal with this?

Moreover, most of the boats seen on the beach were made of steel. Replaced by a wooden ship thousands of years ago, after such a long time, I am afraid that it has already decayed into slag.

It's not possible unless you've lived on this island for a long time!

"Master, it can't be caused by those unjust souls who died in vain, right? Hongu is timid and afraid of ghosts. ”

"I'm afraid of you big-headed ghost!" The corners of Zhou Qi's mouth twitched, gave Luo Li a blank look, and continued to move towards the depths of the jungle. This witch is really funny, she is a heavenly demon, how can she be afraid of ghosts. Even if you sell cuteness, you have to have a discipline, right?

The closer you get to the center of the island, the more niches you'll see along the way. It didn't take long for a stone sculpture that resembled a Buddha statue to appear!

At the moment of seeing the stone carving, Zhou Qi basically concluded that there were people living on this mysterious island!

Just like the lantern niche that appeared in this primeval jungle, the stone carvings in front of you are also very mysterious!

It is not difficult to see from the physical characteristics of the stone carving that it is a woman who is carved. Although the dozen or so stone carvings seen along the way have different costumes and postures. However, there is one thing in common.

Amazing to say! The faces of the stone carvings are almost identical!

In addition to the traces of wind and rain erosion, even with Zhou Qi's current vision, it is difficult to find obvious differences from the faces of the stone carvings. The faces of all the statues are as if they were cast from a mold!

It's just one or two identical, dozens or hundreds of them, it has to be amazing, and even feel a trace of fear from the heart!

"It's really strange, why is it all carved with a woman? Could it be that this woman is some kind of god? ”

"Gods?" Hearing the muttering in the witch's mouth, Zhou Qi couldn't help frowning. I can't help but think of some legendary female gods that I know personally. But none of the columns are out of tune with the painting style of the statue in front of you.

Who could this woman be?

I didn't think that it was more like an unintentional exploration along the way, but it aroused a deep curiosity in his heart.

Following the lantern niches and Buddha statues you see along the road, after a while, the jungle fades away.

Seeing the light from the sky outside the jungle, Zhou Qi took a deep breath. In a flash, the figure has already appeared on the edge of the jungle!

Fang came out of the forest, and when he saw the scene in front of him, Zhou Qi couldn't help but fall into a stupor in an instant!

The situation in front of him was completely unexpected, and it was simply a violation of the laws of nature and science!

Meow a! How is this possible!
