Chapter 39: The Fountain of Youthfulness (Part 1)
However, Zhang Ye and the others didn't have time to think about why, after the naval fleet and the Spanish fleet withdrew, they formed an elite expedition team led by Zhang Ye.
The team members include Zhang Ye, Huang Tai two brothers, Yang Tingting, Barbossa, Jack, as for the god of death Nick and Patu and the ruler, they entered the island where the Fountain of Youth, the specific purpose is unknown, only that it is good or bad for Zhang Ye to do so.
As for Xiao Feng, Zhou Hao, and He Hui, the three of them stayed behind with the pirate mages to guard the fleet.
The reason is very simple, Zhou Hao and He Hui are better at large-scale attacks or pure destruction, which has certain requirements for terrain and environment, so they are naturally not suitable for releasing magic on tropical islands with complex terrain.
If they do, they will either destroy the already fragile passages, or create forest fires or other disasters, which will only make it even more troublesome.
In contrast, they stay on the calm sea, not only in terms of strength, but also have an excellent terrain advantage.
While the other mages are not strong enough to deal with Beckett, Howling Wind's hurricane power can transform an entire fleet from a group of battleships into a "group of speedboats" or "submarines" at a critical moment.
But apparently Xiao Feng was reluctant, even quite reluctant, because Zhang Ye had promised to let him gain eternal life, but now he didn't take him to the Fountain of Youth, but he couldn't resist Zhang Ye at the same time, after all, as long as Zhang Ye wanted to, he couldn't even see the sunrise the next day.
Jack also didn't think it was a good decision to bring Barbossa instead of Howling Wind, although Barbossa also thought that Jack shouldn't be brought, but in the end it was Zhang Ye who made the decision, so Zhang Ye directly ignored the complaints of the two of them and flew into the forest on the island with everyone low and silently.
As soon as he entered the forest, Zhang Ye stopped flying and landed on the ground, and did not forget to wrap his hands with his telekinesis enough to erase the sound of footsteps.
Others naturally followed Zhang Ye's lead. Use their own methods to eliminate footsteps, etc., which don't need to be reminded by others, after all, they are not rookies.
However, the two Huang Tai brothers are more difficult to handle, their werewolf bloodline does not add the trait of stealth action, so they can only run the flight system of Iron Man armor at the lowest power to maintain a low suspension flight.
That's it. A group of six headed into the depths of the island, not aiming for the Fountain of Youth, but in search of Blackbeard, who also longed for immortality but had not appeared in the previous naval battle.
"Queen Anne's Revenge, she's a mouth-watering baby, aren't you interested?" Barbossa looked at Zhang Ye in front of him, who used the earth method to split a passage with the original sword, and asked in a low voice.
"Of course I have a chance, but now I care about the mermaids in their hands." Zhang Ye replied in a low voice while "overcoming thorns".
Jack then added in a mysterious whisper, "And the silver cup, you know that it takes ancient, mysterious rituals to enjoy the Fountain of Youth. ”
"The Fountain of Youthfulness is not the main goal, the main goal is to prevent anyone from approaching there. The old man can't be given any chance. Zhang Ye knew that if the "old man" could find one Howling Wind, he would be able to find a second one, and he would even be stronger and more greedy than Howling Wind.
"Brother Ye, what did you say about that old man...... What kind of god is he, listening to what you said before, it seems to be an evil god or some kind of bad god. Yang Tingting asked in a puzzled low voice.
"I don't know, but Nick once said that the god who was sleeping here is likely to have been polluted by the King of the Realm, and that he is entangled with the soul of another god. To put it simply, it is possible that the gods here were controlled by the Realm King in advance. Zhang Ye frowned and replied in a low voice. Because he subconsciously thought of Nick, the god of death who acted in advance, as well as Patou and the Dominator, and their purpose.
He then whispered as if to himself, "Even if you are not controlled, you are not necessarily decent. ”
"Maybe it's positive to be negative?" Jack is optimistic.
"When you see it, you can know it." Zhang Ye stopped talking, and walked all the way in silence with everyone, looking for an unfamiliar "taste" along the way.
Thanks to Blackbeard, who didn't participate in the recent naval battle, it would have been really difficult to find him, and now he can be distinguished from the energy taste of the Navy and the Spaniards. Therefore, it is very likely that Blackbeard is a group that is completely different from these two parties, so Zhang Ye and others have a clear goal from the beginning.
That's the unfamiliar "smell" in the air.
However, the process of finding Blackbeard was unusually smooth, Zhang Ye and the others followed the unfamiliar "taste" all the way to "overcome obstacles", and within an hour they found their abandoned camp, and the fire was even smoking.
Zhang Ye: They didn't move on. Instead, he stayed in the abandoned camp to investigate, and Wang Ling also came with news at this time.
"The movements of the navy are highly classified, I don't know much at the moment, only that they are also investigating the gods and related legends around the world, as for the Fountain of Youth, I suggest you start looking in the southern part of the island, where there is a temple of the god of nothingness, Ancarlo, but it was in ruins a long time ago, but recently there has been an abnormal explosion of energy."
This is followed by a second message.
"In addition to the ruins of the temple with abnormal energy bursts, the six locations of the entire island also have the same energy fluctuations, but they are much weaker than those of the temple ruins, and if you connect them with a straight line, you will find that they are standard six-pointed stars, so it is recommended to investigate them as well to find out what they do."
Two pieces of information in a row pointed out the direction of Zhang Ye's investigation, but Zhang Ye was a little puzzled, could it be that Ankarlo had nothing to do with the Fountain of Youth?
No one could explain it to Zhang Ye, and the god of death Nick and the two demons were not around, so Zhang Ye didn't think about it further, but after determining that there were no valuable clues in the camp, he continued to move forward with the increasingly strong unfamiliar "taste".
However, before they had gone far this time, they found a small open space, in which there were obvious traces of rectangular heavy objects, and there were women's footprints and various bottles and cans, and there were also traces of being soaked in water near the traces left by heavy objects.
As soon as he saw the footprints of those women and the bottles and cans, Jack walked up to Zhang Ye and asked in a low voice, "Brigadier General, I guess you must be a gentleman who pities the fragrance and cherishes the jade, am I right?" (To be continued.) )
