As evening approached, the two men were already holding hands and circling the island. Even leaving Kaka in charge of keeping Olivia safe, Evan even searched the bottom of the calm sea outside the island.

It's a pity that nothing was found.

However, during this period, the strong physical recovery function also allowed the bone cracks in Aiwen's arms to be completely repaired, and the tourmaline ring he always carried on his hand was enough to ensure that he could maintain his peak condition without eating for a long time.

It's just that the ring has been changed from the index finger to the middle finger by the girl herself.

Of course, he can go without food and drink for a long time, but Olivia, who has a different path to the Transcendent, cannot.

Crackling...

In a sheltered place by the sea, Olivia picks up dead branches and lights a bonfire to roast the seven or eight sea fish that Evan caught while exploring. For Olivia, who is young but experienced in adventure, this kind of thing is just a trivial basic skill.

The flames simmer the slightly browned surface of the fish with grease, and the tantalizing aroma spreads at the same time.

Although you can't take the elaborate seasoning out of the "magic pocket", you can only add vanilla orchids collected from the island and salt extracted from the seawater by Aven, but the freshness of the ingredients is already delicious.

"It smells so good!"

The desert island under your feet is forbidden to birds and beasts, and there are only a few flying insects.

However, the source of food in this sea is quite abundant, and the constant churning of the water makes the nutrients on the seabed flood, forming a nutrient-rich ecosystem, at least a variety of fish are thriving.

Based on this ecosystem, even some giant sea monsters are enough to raise.

But.

Although the craft is Olivia's own craftsmanship, and the aroma is tempting enough, the girl swallowed her saliva and was a little clueless about these strange-looking sea fish that Evan caught.

"Here, Hirsie, try this. The flesh of the spotted tail is delicate and has few small spines, but the camouflage ability is too strong, and if it weren't for my good eyes, I might not be able to catch them under the water. ”

Evan took the initiative to pick up a strange fish with a long arm length and a flat body and handed it to her.

The spotted fish is actually a type of flounder, and the Old Continenters of this era still recognized cod more than other strange-looking fish, and few people except seafarers put them on the table.

Including Olivia is also eating it for the first time.

"Well, it's ugly, but it's delicious. Aven, you eat too!"

As for the Ka Ka next to him, which has returned to its true body shape and has been transformed into a wurm, it does not have this blessing, and eats all the raw fish it hunts by itself, but it doesn't care about the difference in taste.

While the two of them were feasting, they were analyzing the current form one by one, and neither of them had any scruples about the aristocratic etiquette of eating and not talking.

"Aven, you don't have to be in a hurry.

It will take at least six days for Cape Storm and Red Maple, which have been out of sight of Griffith, to return to the Gulf of Benin.

As long as we can get out of trouble during this time, both the speed of the 'Thunderbird' and the 'Shadow Jump' will be enough for us to catch up with them in the first place. ”

Olivia's movements are graceful but not slow at all, and in two sentences, she has already eaten half of the bar-tailed mandarin with little taste and thorns.

"Well, I understand. It just so happens that my body has fully recovered, and tomorrow we will go to the interior of the island to have a look. Although the terrain is relatively complex, it shouldn't have taken me more than two days at my speed. ”

After being promoted to the third order, Aiwen's appetite was not as exaggerated as before, and he mainly ate with Olivia.

"By the way, Aven, you guess that the various 'forbidden abilities' here are naturally formed? Or did someone deliberately set it up?"

"Huh? Although many of the rituals currently mastered by wizards are derived from the natural world, what if there is only one forbidden effect here? Can the past be explained by the natural environment? We're out of luck.

But now the total effect has reached eight, and it can never be natural? It is only the means of concrete realization, and it still needs to be verified. At least on the outskirts of the island? We didn't find any structures like a puzzle. ”

Evan is well aware of the cost of building the Port of Hatrafa with Milan in the first place? The layout here is far more than the port of Hatrafa ten times a hundred, and must have a value corresponding to this means.

So, he glanced at the girl opposite and said a corollary that could be considered good news:

"Whoever uses what? Achieve this all-round ban effect.

The essence has already constructed a 'secret realm' that no one else can discover or reach.

What or other secrets must be hidden in the end? And it's a huge value!"

Treasure!

A word had already popped up in the minds of the two people at the same time, and the flow rate of some kind of homologous blood in their bodies had increased a little.

Talking about this kind of topic that everyone is very interested in, the two of them looked at each other across the fire and smiled at the same time.

The relationship between them was overly natural, and everything seemed like it was supposed to be. Don't even need to say more? They like each other and are like-minded, and they are very comfortable to get along with.

However? The topic of treasure didn't last.

Because Evan suddenly raised his head and "looked" at the sea behind Olivia, more precisely, he felt the anomaly under the surface of the sea with [low-pressure pulse].

Blink? Seeming to jokingly ask:

"Hersie, Hersie, a question for you? Are you afraid of snakes?"

Raised his eyelids and threw a cute white eye at Aven? How could you be afraid of snakes as a great adventurer?

"Who do you look down on?"

Ai Wen continued to ask:

"That's... What about the serpent?"

"How big is the serpent?"

A tacit understanding developed over a long period of time? When the girl asked, she noticed that Aiwen's eyes were wrong.

Although Olivia temporarily lost her ability to cast spells, her keen spirituality was not. I have heard the sound of water behind me that is deliberately suppressed, but still cannot be ignored.

It's like... A predator who is quietly approaching his prey and waiting for an opportunity to hunt!

The girl's face was slightly pale, and she was about to look back with a half-eaten sea fish, but Ai Wen held her shoulder with one hand to stop her from turning her head.

"You eat slowly, I'll come when I go. ”

Shout!

With a flick of her body, she disappeared in front of Olivia in an instant.

At this time, on the sea directly opposite the campfire.

A giant snake with a crown of thorny bones on its head, vertical fins on its back, covered with steel scales, and a body length of more than 32 meters has already swam rapidly on the water, and it looks like it is approaching the seashore.

Hiss –

The boat-like flat head was raised high, and a cold light appeared in the blue snake pupils narrowed into a line, and a trace of roaring electricity flickered on the thorn-like crown of bone above its head.

The angry owner of the island was about to assert his sovereignty over the uninvited guest who came to his home while he was molting.

A figure also mixed with electric sparks was a preemptive strike, and the tall figure came to the top of the sea serpent's head in a flash, ignoring the crackling high-voltage current, and raised a pair of sand bowl-sized fists to turn into Thor's heavy hammer.

Knock it down!

Duang！

With a loud sound that made people's eardrums hurt, a blow re-rammed the head of the snake, which had risen high from the water, into the sea.

When the water exploded, people also threw themselves into the water.

Riding on the neck of the giant serpent, while waving a fist harder than a meteor hammer, there are still words in his mouth:

"It's just a small species, do you want to accept it?"

Hiss –

He was answered only by the hissing of snakes and the crackling of electricity on the crown of thorny bones.

But the murmur soon began to change pitch, giving way to the low whining of a defeated dog.

In the end, only Aven's own voice remained:

"Eighty! Eighty! Eighty ..."

Five minutes later.

With a long tail in his tow, Evan stepped out of the waves onto the beach, leaving the half-dead serpent aside, and the ground shook.

Boom!

At this time, the fish is still warm.

Olivia knew that the small sea monster could not be Aven's third-order transcendent opponent, but she was curious why she captured the sea snake alive, put down the sea fish in her hand and walked to Aven's side:

"Are you going to take this little breed, Kraken Knight Gallott?"

Defeating the sea monster by force is the only way to gain its approval, just like what Aven had just done.

"Don't we know where the 'treasure' is, just ask this watchman. ”

At the same time as he saw this snake sea monster, Evan had already realized who those "forbidden abilities" on the island were prepared for, except for the concealment effect.

Because Evan knows something about this kind of sea monster, after all, it is inscribed on the family crest of the Galliot family - "Thorn Crown Sea Serpent"!

Rough-skinned, thick-skinned, huge, and a thorn-like crown of bone on the head emits deadly lightning, and when mature, it can develop into a penetrating electric spear.

Moreover, the lightning attribute attacks used by this sea monster rely more on the innate physical strength of electric eels and avens, rather than the kind of spell abilities similar to wizards.

Therefore, it is no problem to survive in the forbidden environment, as a reptile that can live both in water and on land, it is a guardian made in heaven in this area.

Even if a heavily armed army came here, without the accompaniment of high-level transcendents, it could only usher in the end of total annihilation.

In addition, sea monsters are creatures that can break through the original racial limits, and the biggest feature is that they are comparable to the size of warships.

The lifespan limit of each snake is different, and the way of judging age is very different.

The age of the "thorn-crowned sea serpent" can be determined by the thorn-like fan-shaped bony crown on the top of the head.

Although it is not yet a mature body, it is already more than 32 meters in size and nearly 1.6 meters in diameter, and it is no problem to open its mouth to let an ordinary human woman walk in. Coupled with steel-like scales at the edges and the ability to discharge, it must be an excellent arm once it grows.

Evan does have an idea for the "Kraken Knight".

When ordinary knights subdue sea monsters, they mainly use tools called "Kraken horns" or "sea monster horns".

After defeating and taming the Kraken with his own hands, the legendary Kraken was inscribed on the surface of the Snail with the blood taken from the Kraken.

Then the corresponding ritual is held: take a boat and circle the body clockwise three times, and then counterclockwise three times, and then establish a universal contract to direct the sea monster's activities through the "sea monster horn".

As for Evan not using the contract ritual of the "Sea Monster Knights", as a wizard who specializes in the biological field of the "Living Chemical School", he has a better way.

Jumping on the top of the head of the sea snake that no longer dared to move, he cut his finger at the center of the eyebrows of the "Thorn-crowned Sea Snake", which had been completely subdued, and drew a tree-shaped [Indeed] that belonged to the "Living Chemistry School".

Raise your hand to match the glint in your eyes, and slap it hard.

Smack-

At the same time as the [Seal] disappeared, the spiritual origin of the sea monster had been marked with the [Soul Steel Seal] belonging to Ai Wen, and a mysterious connection from the spiritual world had been quietly established.

This kind of ineffective contract sorcery does not rely on the "magic element", but is not affected by the forbidden demon realm.

Jumping off its boat-like head, Evan patted the serpent's steel-like neck:

"Since the skin is rough and the flesh is thick, let you be called skinned. ”

Through the connection between hearts, even without a parseltongue, it is enough to pass on one's thoughts to the past:

"Your master and I are real people, feelings can be cultivated slowly, let's fast forward to the last step. Pippi, is there any treasure on this island?"

"Shhh——! yes. ”
