Chapter 421: Before the Wind and Waves

"Ever since we traded the treasure we found from the shipwreck for the right to live in this inn, the couple who seem to have been specially arranged by the Hunters' Guild to test everyone have not shown their faces again." Kurapika said seriously.

Hearing his words, Ogata recalled that it was only in the morning that they had been seen once when they had gone ashore to assign rooms, after which the couple had disappeared as if they had evaporated from the island. Therefore, many candidates who are worried about eating problems are forced to go to the sea to fish.

He took a deep look at Kurapika, and when it came to this observation, it made Ogata feel a little ashamed. Because he habitually puts what he is interested in first, and Kurapika is a qiē that accommodates his side.

"You think it's part of the test?" Ogata asked.

Kurapika nodded: "Although I don't know what this assessment is about, it is strange everywhere, and it is obviously not as simple as letting us rest on this island for three days." And calling it 'rest' is also likely to paralyze everyone's sense of prevention. ”

Of course Ogata understands the truth of boiling frogs in warm water. He suddenly realized a relatively strict problem, that is, there were about thirty candidates on this island, and there was inedible sea water around it

"The water doesn't seem to be able to sustain us for the next three days." Thinking of this, Ogata said to Kurapika.

Kurapika nodded, her eyes flashing: "That's right, it seems that this invisible exam has set a designated completion time, that is, before we candidates run out of water." Successfully get out of the predicament. ”

"I'd love to know. The treasures that everyone has worked so hard to gather. The couple did not take it away. Ogata smiled faintly and looked at the room where the couple lived.

Kurapika shook her head: "I don't know. Let's go check it out. ”

"Hmm." Ogata nodded slightly, submissively following Kurapika's opinion

Almost all the candidates came to their senses, and when they greeted the new morning, they all found this problem, that is, the innkeeper couple who were in charge of everyone's daily life never appeared again.

And Kurapika, as the first person to notice this, was in front of all the candidates. I told everything I had analyzed.

Ogata was standing in the crowd, and Leoli suddenly touched him with his arm and blinked, "Ogata, you should have noticed this too, right?" ”

"Nope." Ogata shook his head, he just smiled.

"It's strange that Kurapika is so energetic and out of the limelight today." Leori yawned and said to Ogata.

Hearing this, Ogata replied, "Kurapika needs more recognition than we do. Because of what he's carrying. It's huge. ”

"Huge? What is it? Leoli's reaction was a beat slower, but he wasn't stupid. Quickly thinking of something, Zhengse said: "Are you talking about the destruction of the Guluta clan?" ”

"It's good to know, everyone has a story, just like you." Ogata glanced at Leoli. Kurapika is a very sensitive person, especially when the key words 'Gulutta' and 'spider' are mentioned.

Ogata's observation power only pays more attention to the things he is interested in, and Kurapika, who is a partner, is obviously one of them.

Once, because Leoli mentioned something related to the 'Guluta Clan', he angered the always calm and gentle Kurapika, and even got into a fight. can be exquisite, his biggest weakness is that he is more 'sensitive'.

At this time, talking about him privately, especially related to 'Cave Luta', will definitely annoy Kurapika.

Leori scratched his head and said no more. He also realized that he seemed to be meddling.

Standing in front of all the candidates, Kurapika expounded all his analysis, which attracted many discussions and speculations. Although most people resist Kurapika's opinion, they are well aware that this is an invisible examination joint.

And such an exam is about the safety of everyone's life!

Ogata and Kurapika have already investigated the name of this warship island, and the remaining fresh water is only enough to feed more than thirty candidates for about a day, and there is no food on the island to satisfy hunger.

The innkeeper couple was missing, but their treasure was not taken with them, and was left in their room. In Ogata's view, there are two situations to refer to.

One is that the two of them deliberately lightened their burden in order to leave the island conveniently, and had to leave behind the looted treasure.

And the other is aimed at people's hearts are not ancient!

Among the more than 30 candidates, there will definitely be people who are hungry for profit and have greedy thoughts. If such a large sum of treasure, worth hundreds of millions of dollars, were left here, it was obvious that there would be people fighting for it.

Ogata's gaze looked at Leori, who was closest to him, and as far as he knew, this guy should be the most greedy for money.

"What's wrong?" Leori couldn't help but ask when he saw Ogata looking at him strangely.

Ogata laughs, "Why do you always wear sunglasses?" ”

"Because it's handsome!" Leo puffed up his chest and said confidently to Ogata.

Ogata was speechless for a moment and patted him on the shoulder: "Let's go." ”

"Huh?"

"Go and see if there is anything that can help on this island, no matter how you discuss it, how you think of a way, the final conclusion must be to find a way to get out of this warship island." Ogata explained.

Leori agreed with Ogata's statement, and he felt that it was useless for these people to quarrel around

Rather than stay on the shore and watch the candidates' divergent arguments, Ogata and Leori returned to the vicinity of the inn in search of something useful.

Ogata quickly found a description of the island from the large, dilapidated warship near the inn, as well as a rough plan of the warship's structure. But everything was written in the ancient language of this world, so that Ogata of the master's degree could only stare dryly and not know a word.

He remembered that Kurapika seemed to understand the text, and it seemed that he was going to bring it to him to read it.

This warship is very large and grand, but it is a pity that it is damaged in this sea area, and there is no way to exert its might.

Ogata walked on the deck of the warship, looked at the surrounding qiē, and came to such a conclusion.

If there is really no way to start this warship in the end, it should be the last way to retreat!

When he returned, he saw Leoli holding a piece of paper and handed it to Kurapika and Jay to study it.

Ogata walked over and glanced at the shredded paper, "What is it?" ”

Everyone looked at Ogata, who had just walked up.

"It's probably a damaged road map that records the distance and specific route from Gunkanjima to Garrison Island. But because the other parts are too incomplete to piece together a complete navigation route, we can only be sure of one thing now, and that is that if we do leave Gunkanjima, then the place we will reach must be the 'Garrison Island' marked on this road map! ”

Kurapika glanced down at the paper in her hand, and then talked eloquently.

"I see." Ogata nodded slightly, listening as he cleared up the qiē train of thought.

"By the way, what did you find?"

Leoli looked at Ogata and was not empty-handed, but holding something like a booklet and drawings in his hand.

"The blueprints of the warship, and the history of the island." Ogata gave them to Kurapika, the only one who could read the words.

This is a kind of talent, and after seeing Kurapika take it, he carefully examined and read it, and said that it was false not to admire. Fortunately, there are people among them who can understand these things, otherwise they would really be blind.

Xiao Jie looked at the sea level, and slowly opened his mouth at this time: "There seems to be some sound." ”

Ogata, who is also extremely hearing, didn't pay attention just now, but now when he heard Xiaojie's reminder, he also listened hard, and sure enough, not far away, there seemed to be a sound fluctuation like 'ghost crying wolf'.

In such a calm and peaceful sea, such a sudden sound is definitely not an ordinary thing.

"You heard you right, Jay." Ogata looked at the sea and said calmly.

Xiaojie was stunned, and Killua also looked at Ogata in surprise, because he didn't hear anything.

"Kurapika, better be prepared, there's going to be a catastrophe here, a terrible catastrophe." Ogata felt the faint sound in the distance, and some seagulls that kept flying in this direction, so he said.

Kurapika hadn't finished reading what he was doing, but he already knew it: "It should be written above, a catastrophe once in a decade." The island is about to be hit with a terrible storm maelstrom. ”

Leoli's face changed, and he looked at Ogata and Kurapika: "What to do?" Do you want to die on this island? Do you want to be like everyone else, prepare your ships to leave here and go to the Garrison Island mentioned on the map? ”

"Without knowing the distance and the route of the voyage, we can't be sure exactly how long it will take to get to the Alert Island, and it's easy to encounter a catastrophe that should be happening in the distant seas." Ogata replied slowly.

Kurapika nodded in agreement and said, "That's right." According to the information here, there will be two waves of such a catastrophe. The first wave would not have caused substantial damage to a qiē on the shore. So we're going to have to wait until the first wave subsides, and before the second wave comes, find a way to get out of the island. If you rely on a small boat to cross the sea now, you can easily be swallowed up by the terrifying wind and waves mentioned above. ”

Leoli felt that there was some truth and breathed a sigh of relief.

They're all trying to be hunters to get to such a damn place, and it's no joke that it's a life-threatening time. (To be continued......)
