Chapter 41: The Gambling Game (1) On the island

As the prophet of the void had said. Galen said quietly with his sword on his back, looking at the three islands lying quietly in the turquoise waters.

The three islands were not far from the location of Jiawen and the others, but in the thin wet mist, Jiawen and the others could only see purple shades.

"Let's split up and save time. Ember whispered.

"No, I don't agree. Galen shook his head and said, "We don't know anything about the situation on the island, everything is unknown, and it's good for the three of us to act together." ”

"But that would slow us down a lot and delay our time. It's an unfair gamble. Ember retorted, "Completing the game within the allotted time is the minimum standard, and if we can't even meet this, how can we win the game?"

"But, your body ......," Galen voiced his concerns.

Gavin looked at the sea water blown by the sea breeze and did not speak.

"Don't worry," Ember chuckled and shook his head, "Without that demon, my strength is not weak, and even if I really encounter danger, I can still have the power to protect myself." ”

"Ash, maybe we can split up in two ways," Garvin said slowly, "This will take into account the efficiency and will not affect the gambling game." ”

"I know what you're worried about. Ember chuckled and shook his head, and with a slight leap, he came to the shore, "Don't worry, I can control ......"

Gavin and Galen also leaped forward to Ash's side, looking side by side with Ember at the three vague silhouettes not far away.

"The Void Prophet is really sweet. Looking at the sea, which had formed a fine frost and quickly frozen as the three of them approached, Gavin glanced at the gray sky.

"Well, without further ado. Ember looked up lightly and said, "There are still four and a half days left, and when that's done, we'll meet here." ”

Before he could finish speaking, Ember headed for the island on the far left. He was so fast that he disappeared into the sea fog in a moment.

The sea fog seems to have thickened a little because of the ice on the sea.

Galen tried to chase Ember back, but was held back by Gavin.

"Let's believe him. In response to Galen's inquiring gaze, Gavin's eyes lit up, "Since he's so insistent." ”

Galen lowered his head and nodded again.

......

......

Void.

The Void Prophet Marzaha silently watched the sight of the three Gavin in the crystal ball. His body floated up and down, to his left was Cassadine the Voidwalker, and to his right was a strange creature that was covered in a dark or light purple, and in the middle of it was a purple orb that shone with a crystal clear brilliance. From the purple orb, several long, slender, swinging purple tentacles stretched outward, and at the very end of the tentacles was a purple light that seemed to be crystalline and solid. He is none other than Vicz, the Eye of the Void, who has a high status in the Void.

"Doesn't this increase the chances of success?" Watching the three people in the crystal ball go to the island separately, Vikz asked in a low voice, his voice hoarse and extremely unclear, as if a person was whispering in a dull voice in an echoing room, "Let those three people choose to go to the island and bring other candidates." ”

"Yes. Marzaha nodded, "Although the success rate that can be improved is very low, almost negligible, but even a little, I will not let it slip away." I've waited too long, too long for this ceremony......"

"It's been long enough, so long that I can't even remember. Cassadine said in a hoarse voice.

"But I was a little surprised that they would agree to the gamble without much hesitation. Vikz's tentacles writhed and never stopped, "Not even too much surprise, defiance, or anger at your sudden arrival." ”

"I was also surprised. Marzaha chuckled lowly, his pure purple eyes as if a flame was beating, "Faced with a gamble that is completely unfavorable to you, you have the courage to take it." This boldness, this courage, this determination, really gave me a moment to feel that they might really have the strength to compete with me, or even ......"

"Can the great Void Prophet even tell jokes?" said an illusory voice without a hint of emotion.

"I'm serious. Syndra, the Dark FΓΌhrer. Before Marzaha could speak, Sindra, dressed in black, appeared in front of her, her long snow-colored hair hung down her waist, and black energy balls filled with rich dark elements were irregularly distributed around her, "You shouldn't be here, they have already arrived on the island, you should appear on the island, waiting for their challenge." ”

"Hahaha," Sindra laughed, her purple eyes full of amusement, "you don't really think they can defeat me, do you?" I don't even feel the power of the three other than that container...... It's too weak......"

"You will feel it, you will feel their unique ......," Malzaha said in a deep voice.

"Is it??What kind of magic is it for a human to be praised by Marzaha, suddenly I have some anticipation......" Sindra's voice in the void faded, and her figure faded.

......

......

The island on the far right made a deep and only impression on Gawain the moment he set foot on it: desolate.

"It's hard to see a bird, not to mention a human being here...... Levin muttered as he slowly stepped on the soft sand.

I don't know how long I walked, Jiawen slowly stuck the halberd on the ground, and said helplessly, "This island is at least half the size of Valoran, and it is absolutely unrealistic for me to go all over this island......

Gavin's voice stopped abruptly, and he gently pulled the halberd out of the ground and looked in a certain direction, motionless and staring.

In the distance, a vague silhouette looms. From the other party's gradually clear shadow, Gavin could see that he was approaching him, and his speed was not slow.

Jiawen calmed down and looked at the shadow that was getting closer and closer with a sharp gaze.

......

......

The middle island to which Galen went was a cemetery. The eerie atmosphere combined with the almost entangled fog adds to the mystery.

Even Galen, who has been through a hundred battles and has a will like a steel wall, has a bit of emotional fluctuations. At this time, he was holding the great sword tightly, walking slowly and cautiously, and the golden light covering the great sword showed his seriousness.

"You don't need to hide anymore, do you?" said Galen abruptly and aloud to the unknown, "The surroundings do make you hide well, but ...... I know, you're nearby...... Why hide?"

......

......

The island on the far left is a land of ice and snow. Entering the island, Ember suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. There is no wind, no snow, everything around is quiet, and the silence is a little frightening.

Ember exhaled softly, holding the quaint pistol in his left hand and the strange white mask in his right hand.

"If you can't, you'll have to use the power of that demon......" Ember muttered to himself as he walked slowly.

As Ember walked towards the center of the island, the thin fog became thicker, the visibility became worse, and the temperature gradually increased.
