Chapter 364: The Story of the Soul Shepherd
Time is the most powerful enemy, especially against old castles.
Hundreds of years have passed, the castle here is untended and gradually decayed, Mo Tie wandered around, and found nothing.
He couldn't find any information about the place except the dull stone, the furniture was not visible, there were no frescoes on the walls, and there were no documents in the study.
I can only go deeper.
After walking along the path behind the castle, it took them ten minutes to see some ruined villages.
I walked in and looked around, but I didn't find anything either, and many wooden houses had collapsed, and nothing could be found.
"It's like ...... here More than hundreds of years. Tsuneko said hesitantly.
Mo Tie nodded: "I know, in the legends of the sea, there was a catastrophe here hundreds of years ago, but the weathering of these things is very serious. I guess it's also affected by these black fogs. β
Along the way, they had never felt the warm sunlight outside the island, and the entire Shadow Island was filled with a dark black mist, just like the black mist on the night of the Soul Eclipse.
"But why didn't you meet the undead?" She was curious, she had gone to sea with the Helicarrier on the night of the Soul Eclipse, and she had not yet seen the terrifying skeleton undead with her own eyes.
"I don't know, let's keep looking, go to the center of the island."
Lucian didn't have a problem with that, he just had to watch his surroundings.
For the next half day, the three of them searched for dozens of villages, a dozen castles, and some monastery-like buildings, but there was no one.
At this time, on the cruise ship outside the island, Sarah's men took advantage of the good sunshine to bring out a few barrels of ale and a wooden table.
"Raven, come on, it's open." They shouted with their shabby clothes open.
As a result, all the sailors on the ship, except for Sarah, ran away to gamble.
In one room, several small children are making noise.
Jinx sat very quietly in the corner, staring through the glass at the eerie Shadow Isle outside.
This anomaly was finally discovered by the other children, who bumped into each other and whispered:
"Behold, she is sick again."
"yes, it's scary, will she infect us?"
"Not necessarily, after so many days, aren't we still fine."
"Shhhhh
The children lowered their voices, quietly left the guest room, and hid in the hallway to discuss.
"Shall we kill her, I always think she is so scary, what if she is infected?" This is a very gentle and obedient little girl.
"I don't know, I've heard that the plague makes the infected yearn for the sea, and she pulls her friends along, and she will most likely bring us to the captain of Bilgewater next time."
"What then?" Some of the children panicked.
"We ...... Can...... Leave her on this island? A little boy asked, pointing to the window at the end of the aisle.
Everyone followed his fingers and were stunned when they saw the dark Shadow Island outside the window.
They shuddered in their hearts, and felt an endless chill coming from the island.
No one spoke, but the breathing became heavy, and they were thinking, perhaps...... It can be done.
After a while, a little girl ran into the room and whispered, "Jinx, do you want to get off the boat and go for a walk?" β
β¦β¦
On the dark island, where many paths are covered in unknown withered plants, Lucian and Motie continue their way through the village clusters to the interior of the island.
In the so-called village of bright willows and flowers, under a dry old tree, they actually met a figure.
It was a man draped in tattered linen, sitting quietly at the base of a tree, his eyes fixed on the ground, his mouth opening and closing, not knowing who he was talking to.
Lucian and Mo Tie glanced at each other and understood.
After he hid, Mo Tie emerged from the woods and walked towards the figure.
"Hello." He greeted.
The man looked up, his beard full, and he looked to be in his thirties. He looked at Mo Tie with blank eyes, opened his mouth and said, "...... Hiss, cough cough...... Ho ......"
It is a very old language, from Shurima to Bilgewater, which Motie has not heard.
But he has an all-purpose translator who allows him to communicate with people in the form of consciousness.
The middle-aged man said "Wait, I'll bury you back later".
Mo Tie's face was black, did I look like a corpse?
"Are you an indigenous to the island? What about the people here? Where did it all go? β
After listening to Mo Tie's question, the expression on the middle-aged man's face slowly changed, from dazed to confused, then shocked, and finally blurted out: "Are you a living person?" β
When Mo Tie heard his words, he thought of the upheaval on the island, and guessed that there might be no living people here.
"yes, I'm from Bilgewater, is this the Isle of Shadows?" He asked.
"Dark ...... Shadow Island? The middle-aged man repeated the name stiffly, his eyes empty, as if he was recalling something.
After a while, he shook his head and said, "No, this is Fuling Island. β
Mo Tie took two more steps, sat on the stump next to him, and said, "The nautical chart is marked with Shadow Island, and Fuling Island is the name it used to be, right?" β
"I haven't been here in a long time, and I don't know what it's called out there now. I just remember that the rest of the Brotherhood told me that this was Fulim Island. β
"Brotherhood? Oh, sorry, haven't asked for your name yet? β
"My name is Yorick and I'm a member of the Twilight Brotherhood."
Mo Tie was taken aback, this name he knew, it was the soul shepherd in the game, the skills were very weird, and in the background story he seemed to be from Shadow Island.
However, before he crossed over, the game company was reworking the backstory of the game's characters, and there were many new stories of the characters that he hadn't seen and didn't know much about.
Mo Tie said tentatively, "There doesn't seem to be such an organization as the Twilight Brotherhood on the Valoran Continent. β
Yorick turned his head blankly, looked at the black earth around him, and said, "Because most of the companions in the Order are lying down here, and those bishops and senior monks have not escaped the disaster, I went to the monastery to see their corpses. β
Mo Tiexin said sure enough, and asked with the situation: "What disaster, can you talk about it?" β
Yorick nodded, he hadn't spoken to a living person in hundreds of years, only to corpses and rare souls.
"I don't know how long ago a king came here with his army and asked the Guardian Presbyterian of Fuling Island to resurrect his wife. But the elders did not agree, and after an accident, the king summoned the world of the dead with powerful magic and descended on the entire island of Fuling, which became what it is now. β
Yorick told him what he had heard over the years.
