Not far from the Mermaid Lake Waterfall, there is a deep pool cave half-hidden under the cliff, half of the hole is above the water, and the other half is underwater.

There are many such caves below the waterfall, which are located near the mermaid lake and the waterfall, some of which are deep enough to form a stalactite cave, but some are so shallow that they are just a boulder protruding from the cliff.

These scattered caves are like craggy stars, dotting the mermaid lake with a different natural atmosphere.

Many magical creatures that love water and liquids live here, as well as equally valuable magical materials, such as cryogenic water, which is used to freeze the Yellow Lamp of Fear, and ink, which can break most magical contracts.

But more importantly, this is the gathering place of mermaids, the largest group of intelligent creatures in Neverland, and all mermaids from different worlds rest here.

They mingle with each other, sing with each other, and use it as a stopover and rest stop on a long journey, and of course, there are often conflicts.

But at this moment, the usual calm of the past has been shattered, and even the mermaids that often appear rarely emerge.

When they did, most of them were hiding behind the Red Navigator, peering from afar, careful not to be noticed.

Because in a hole not far from the waterfall, a huge gap is cracking at this time.

And, in this crevice, there is a clogging artificial machine that does not belong to the style of Neverland at all, eccentric, weird, and full of the crazy appearance of fantasy science.

It was a submarine.

It is decorated with exaggerated oil paint and sprayed with its name, the Nautilus......

"These vines are growing too fast." A large white boy struggled to remove the greenery hanging from the rock wall above the cavern, then found a position on the surface of the submarine. Start slashing hard.

The knives in his hands are very rudimentary, although the blade is sharp, but it is not a professional tree cutting or woodcutter, at first glance, it is improvised and patched together with the tools on the submarine, so the efficiency is very low, and he is busy for most of the day. It was only a small position cleared, and it was not even enough for him to settle comfortably.

"Are you sure it's really just vines, Dad, they're crazy." Taking a breath, he walked outside the cavern, straightened up, stretched, and grumbled loudly.

Obviously, he was not the only one here, and sure enough, as soon as his words fell, a middle-aged male voice sounding very strong came from inside the submarine, "Of course it's vines." Sean, but this island is a bit quirky...... Nothing can be taken as a matter of common sense. ”

“…… Every time you come out, nothing good will happen, let's clean it up quickly, if you don't go back, your mother will definitely lose her temper again, do you want to be yelled at by her for a week? ”

The big boy named Sean seemed to think of something terrible, and he couldn't help but shudder, and he couldn't care about being lazy. He bent down again into the cavern and began to clear the area around the submarine.

Not far away, a girl crouching on the shore saw this scene. With a giggle, she picked up a pebble and threw it on the calm surface of the lake, and said, "Aunt Liz is so terrible." As she spoke, she gave Sean a blank look.

"Karani." Startled by the splash, Sean shouted angrily, "Don't litter." Hell knows there's something scary hiding down here, so if you're bored, come over and help me clear the vines! ”

"But it's a pity that there aren't many tools, you should be the last one in your hand, and I don't know which idiot it is. I broke two saws in a row. As she spoke, Karani shrugged her shoulders with regret and made a mocking expression.

The corners of Sean's mouth twitched, and he decided not to quarrel with his girlfriend, not because he had a superior IQ over other single dogs, but because he realized that he didn't seem to be a match for Karani.

The girl he met before going to the mysterious island, Kalani, was not only bold and skilled, but even quarrelsome was not inferior to himself, and Sean felt that he was absolutely destined to meet the two of them.

It's like he was destined to go through bizarre adventures again and again, just as fate had brought him here again, on this magical island.

So Sean is actually not too worried about the current predicament, and the only thing he is worried about may be just facing his mother who is angry again because he played missing.

As Sean and Carani were wasting time in their arguing, the grass shook in the distance, and a brightly dressed and somewhat funny Humpty Dumpty man came out of it.

Before he could get closer, he shouted, "Karani, Karani, Shaun!" Grylls hit his prey again, this time with a weird-looking reindeer, uh...... What about Hank? He asked.

"I'm ......in a submarine," Hank's muffled baritone voice came from the Nautilus.

Humpty Dumpty pursed his lips and said in a weak voice, "You haven't given up repairing submarines yet." ”

But before Hank could answer, Sean, who was standing on the submarine, pouted for his father and said angrily, "That's better than someone who is idle all day, even Karani can help, but someone is a big man, and he knows how to drink all day." ”

As soon as Humpty Dumpty leaned over, Sean asked A strong smell of alcohol, not as pungent as ordinary beer or alcohol, but exuding a faint fragrance, which didn't seem to have anything to do with wine, but its magic was that even people who had no concept of alcohol at all.

The moment you smell it, you suddenly realize or wake up to what wine is, and then fall madly in love with the taste.

The faint fragrance makes people want to stop smelling it, let alone drinking it in the mouth.

Budo, aka Humpty Dumpty, Kalani's father gave an embarrassed sneer, but then his face straightened and he said righteously, "Kalani has helped something, and she won't be watching from the sidelines?" He sold his daughter without hesitation, anyway, they are all a family, no big deal.

It's just that he didn't expect that Sean was obviously more shameless than he imagined, and there was almost no hesitation. He replied after Budo had said this, "Haven't you heard that men and women work more efficiently?" ”

Faced with such an answer, even a fat man like Budo, who has funny attributes, didn't know what to say for a while, and was choked there. It took a long time before he said stupidly, "Okay, it's really that stream is too fragrant, if you want to blame it, blame it, who knew that it would flow out of wine, and it was so delicious." ”

Not long after the people on the Nautilus disembarked from the submarine, they spotted several small streams nearby, but they did not expect that one of them was not flowing water, but wine as clear as water. Even this wine will not make people drunk, let alone make people feel headaches and other drunken sequelae.

So among these male passengers who liked to drink, it suddenly became a paradise for them, and they did not seem to feel hopeless and panic during the days they were on this small island, and even a little happy.

Of course, there is no doubt that Budo has become one of them.

But he's not an alcoholic, he's just a mouthful.

In order to save some face. Budo decided to change the subject, he looked at the Nautilus, which was stranded on the shore. "It's not that I don't want to fix it, but maybe we don't need to fix it at all......"

"How are we going to get out of here without fixing the submarine." Sean said indifferently on the side, looking at Budo's eyes as if he was looking at an idiot.

“…… What do children understand. Budo said disdainfully, "Although I admit that I have formed a lot of feelings with this submarine, I think. Instead of wasting time here, let's go and get that ready-made ship back. ”

"That's it...... That's it. Budo made a sneaky gesture to the side.

Sean still looked at him with that look, not even changing his movements, "Do you think a wooden ship can run faster than a submarine that we haven't figured out what power principle is until now, if so?" I'm afraid you're really ......."

"Sean!" Karani next to her let out a roar, and Shaun rolled her eyes again.

"Maybe there's something magical about it, like this island." Budo is full of greed, uh no, is full of fantasy said.

"I'm more concerned about whether it can safely survive half of the Pacific Ocean and take us back." Sean said.

"So you know what, you have to trust the experience of an old captain." Budo said dismissively.

"If I'm not mistaken, you were just a pilot half a year ago, and you were still a helicopter pilot."

"But I'm the captain of a submarine now......"

While Sean and Budo were having a boring verbal fight, the hatch of the submarine was suddenly pushed open, and a bald Wu Keuh, no, just a bald head, came out of it.

It was Sean's father, Hank, who retired from the Navy with a body of tendon meat.

He puffed out a huge muscle mass, and with a dexterous movement and speed that did not match his size, he got out of the small cavern, and in a few steps he reached the surface of the submarine outside the cavern, and only after standing firm did he say to Budo, "Your plan sounds terrible. ”

"That wooden ship is so big that we can't drag it even if we can tow it, and there are still inland lakes around here, and if we want to cross the forest to the sea, it's an impossible distance."

"And the creatures on the island have magical places, it may be based on the changes in the evolution of a certain creature, it doesn't mean that the items have the same magical abilities, even if they do, I'm afraid they are brought by this island, and after leaving, they will become the most ordinary things, I still think it's better to repair the Nautilus."

"You're the captain, and since you've brought everyone here, you're going to bring everyone back with you, including your submarine."

"I'm not a captain, I'm just a tour guide." Budo hurriedly excused himself.

"But you just said you were an old captain, don't think I can't hear you inside." Hank was stunned for a moment, and he was very angry when he saw Budo's face pretending not to know, of course, he couldn't really go up and punch him.

Anyway, Budo didn't seem to be very interested and concerned about the repair work of the Nautilus, and when he heard Hank insist on it, he could only pout and say, "Well, I wish you success, and I want to know, even if you are fine, how are you going to pull the submarine out of here." ”

"Daddy!" Seeing that Budo's cold water was pouring more and more cheerfully, Karani screamed in dissatisfaction.

However, when they heard this, Hank and Sean were also full of helplessness, because the problem that Budo said was indeed a very troublesome problem.

The submarine was not stranded, but was completely squeezed into a small cavern, beneath which was just a shallow branch of the lake, or even a puddle.

Sean and the others didn't know how the submarine appeared out of thin air in the cave at the bottom of the lake inside an island, and they didn't even know how they got to this small island, they only knew that if it weren't for the hard shell of the Nautilus, I am afraid that the submarine would have been crushed in the first place.

Because the situation now is like putting a large square brick into a small polygonal depression, and although it can barely be tucked in, there is a lot of damage at the edges.

The lake connected to this puddle is the Mermaid Lake, but the puddle itself is not big, and the Mermaid Lake does not just refer to a lake, in the waters near the Mermaid Lake and the Great Waterfall, they are all connected to each other, although some are not large, but these are called mermaid lakes.

However, Hank quickly put the problem behind him, because they didn't even have a submarine repaired now, and there was no point in thinking about it.

After thinking for a moment, Hank frowned slightly, and then asked, "Budo, you just said ...... Grylls caught another prey, in the forest? ”

"It's not a forest." Budo asked rhetorically, "If it's in the sea, it's called fishing." ”

Of course, looking at Hank's frowning, Budo still asked one more question, "What's the problem?" ”

Hank's face changed several times, but he still said what was in his heart, "I just ...... I don't think I should capture anything in this forest. ”

"Why?" Budo asked, "Without prey, we won't have anything to eat." ”

"Wild fruits are also available, this island is so magical, there must be something to satisfy the stomach." Hank immediately said, "As for the reason...... I think there are people on this island, others, you know......" he said, vaguely pointing to the place Budo had pointed before, in the direction of the big wooden boat.

Budo didn't speak, he seemed to be thinking, but soon, he looked relieved, "Forget it." He said, "I'd better leave it to you smart people to worry about, I still don't care." ”

At this moment, not only Sean and Hank were helpless, but even his daughter Karani was speechless for her lazy father. (To be continued.) )
