Chapter 19: The Devil's Deal

Galen thought he had misheard, so he reconfirmed, and the reply given by Renekton was: "I can suppress one or two crocodiles for about two hours, and before dawn, I will suppress them, and after all the crocodiles go out to feed, you will pull back the crocodiles that I suppressed, do you understand?" Galen came to his senses and was overjoyed, and said, "In that case, I can help you, you will go and suppress the two crocodiles before dawn tomorrow, and I will pull them back so that you can quickly break the seal." ”

In fact, Galen thought in his heart that if he could really suppress the crocodile, he would be able to eat crocodile meat, and he would no longer have to eat the meat of the piranha that had no taste and meat like sawdust, thinking of the piranha meat, Galen felt a chill in his heart, and his body trembled, eating that kind of meat was really terrible. What Renekton didn't expect was that Galen was so enthusiastic, he thought he was a very cunning boy, and it seemed that he had misunderstood him.

Galen's enthusiasm is because Galen wants to change what he eats, and he is not at all motivated by the idea of helping Renekton break the seal. But Renekton didn't know, and even if Renekton knew, he wouldn't have much to say, and when he didn't know, he would have a higher opinion of Galen.

Now when Galen knew that he could eat crocodile meat tomorrow, he was very excited, and he couldn't sleep at all, so he talked to Renekton, who hadn't communicated with others for a long time, and he especially wanted to talk, and the two of them chatted about you and me.

Galen first asked Renekton and said, "How powerful was Shurima before, and is it as strong as Demacia and Loxus now?" Now that Shurima has declined, tell me about the current situation on the mainland. ”

When Galen heard this, he didn't know whether it was true or false, and there was no way to confirm it, so he said to Renekton: "The two biggest forces in Valoran now are Demacia and Loxas, Demacia and Loxas are constantly fighting, friction is constant, the Loxas have always been keen to invade other city-states, Demacia's strength has blocked the footsteps of Loxas, although the two city-states have not broken out into a large-scale war, it is estimated that a large-scale war will break out in the near future." When Galen finished speaking, his heart was a little heavy.

After hearing these words, Renekton said: "Loxus is indeed a very powerful nation, after so many years, it is still so powerful, it is really not easy. Shurima's former glory is gone, and a new small city-state of Demacia has risen, and time is the best poison that can wear everything down. After saying this, Renekton sighed.

Then Galen and Renekton talked for a long time, asking about Renekton's question about Shurima a thousand years ago, and Renekton said a lot, basically every sentence related to Shurima being strong, or being heroic. Galen automatically ignored Renekton's praise of himself and extracted something useful. Knowing that Shurima was also a very aggressive empire, he often invaded neighboring countries or city-states, demanded their submission, and then signed unequal treaties and became a vassal power of Shurima.

Galen and Renekton were going on and on, and both of them thought the other was funny, so they kept talking. Soon it was daybreak, and Renekton said that he was almost asleep, and that he could not wake up during the day, and that he had suppressed two crocodiles, just east of the island. Galen looked at the sky and knew that the sun would soon come out, and the crocodiles would not leave until the sun was out.

Galen didn't sleep all night, and his eyes were very big circles, but Galen was not sleepy at all, he looked like he was infinitely energetic, and he was eager to try it, and he wanted to drag the crocodiles back quickly, but those crocodiles hadn't left yet, and Galen could only wait impatiently for the time to pass.

When Galen saw all the crocodiles leaving, he ran quickly towards the east side of the island, and soon reached his destination, where he saw that the two crocodiles had not left. Galen couldn't wait to run over, but halfway through the run, Galen immediately braked sharply and stopped, Galen thought at the moment of running over, if the crocodile just left a little later, he couldn't beat the two crocodiles, so it was better to be careful. Galen was not carried away by happiness, and then reached for his back, took the Tempest Greatsword, held it in his hand, and walked carefully towards the crocodile.

When Galen walked a few meters away from the crocodile, Galen slashed at the crocodile with the storm sword, and a wound of more than ten centimeters appeared on the crocodile's body, but the crocodile did not move, and Galen was relieved. Thinking that the monster in the coffin didn't lie to himself, what he said was still something to be believed. Galen put his Tempest Greatsword back behind him and pulled the tails of the two crocodiles back to the stone coffin. Galen happily killed the crocodile and wanted to quickly roast the crocodile meat to eat.

Galen had been eating piranha meat for eight or nine days, and it was unbearable, and Galen quickly killed the two crocodiles. The crocodile's blood was left on the slate, and the slate sucked the crocodile blood into it, and Galen looked at the slate to suck blood, and knew that what Recton said was all true. Galen didn't want to think so much, he directly grilled crocodile meat on the fire, and after a while, Galen roasted the first piece of meat, Galen ate the first bite, leaving tears, it was really delicious, this was the best thing Galen had ever eaten in his life, Galen was super moved. Thinking that I wouldn't have to eat piranhas in the future, I was even more moved and cried. Galen ate a lot of crocodile meat, and for the first time on this island, he felt very satisfied, and then he lay down and began to rest, thinking that there was nothing more to live happily than this.

Galen slept for a long time, and when Galen woke up, it was already afternoon. When Galen got up, he began to think about what he would do in the future. Galen always felt that after the guy named Renekton in the coffin came out, something bad would definitely happen. You can suck blood before you come out of the coffin, and whether you will suck up all your blood after coming out is an uncertain question, Galen is quite worried, thinking that he won't help him kill crocodiles anymore, so he can't come out, anyway, there are two crocodile meat, and he can eat it for a long time.

While Galen was thinking, the crocodile's corpse began to dry up, and the two crocodiles were directly left with only a pile of bones and crocodile skin, and all the flesh and blood were absorbed by the monsters inside. When Galen looked at the crocodile he brought back today, he was shocked, this is the only thing left, this monster is too strong. Galen became bitter again, if he wanted to eat crocodile meat, he would have to help him catch crocodiles every day, and there was really no better way.

Soon it was nightfall, and Renekton woke up, and the first thing he said was, "Isn't it?" Galen asked in a helpless tone: "Where else can I go?" Renekton was very happy after hearing Galen's answer, and said in a satisfied tone: "I feel my strength come back a little, as long as I need about two hundred crocodiles, I can break through the seal." ”

Galen said impatiently, "I only help you catch two a day, I don't have that much time to catch crocodiles, I still have my own things to do." In fact, Galen thought that he had to eat every day, and he didn't want to eat piranha meat, so he had to answer him like this.

When Renekton heard Galen say this, he was not too stupid, knowing that Galen was perfunctory, thinking of what he said in his dream the day before yesterday, saying that he was leaving this small island, Renekton suddenly had a good idea. Then he said in a casual tone: "Maybe I can help you get out of this island, you also know that I can suppress the crocodile, as long as you can help me break the seal, I will help you leave immediately." ”

Galen's whole mind went blank when he heard this, and he suddenly heard what Renekton said, which was what he wanted to hear the most. Thinking of Renekton's casual tone, he should have said it inadvertently, and there should be no conspiracy. Galen thought for a while and said, "Is it true that you said you could help me get out of this island?" "Actually, there is a place where Renekton deceived Galen, that is, it only takes a hundred crocodiles to break the seal, but Renekton says it is two hundred.

Because Galen wanted to leave, no matter whether what he said was true or false, Galen had no choice but to help him break the seal. Then maybe you have a chance to leave this small island. The loneliness on the island is not something that ordinary people can imagine, Galen almost couldn't stand this kind of life anymore, so he said: "I can help you catch more crocodiles, how many crocodiles can you suppress now, I want to get out of this ghost place quickly." ”

Renekton realized that his guess was right, and then said: "According to my current state, I should be able to suppress 5 crocodiles tomorrow, and as time grows, I can suppress more, and it is estimated that it will not take ten days, I will be able to help you get out of here." Galen thought for a while and said, "It's a bit long, but I can wait, don't lie to me, you are a great general and should have your own credit." Galen's words are an indirect reminder to Renekton not to speak doesn't count, I don't know if it has a role, it's better to say it than not to say it at all.

Galen and Renekton started talking again, and after two hours of talking there was no more to talk about, and Galen went to sleep. Renekton didn't bother Galen either, for fear that he wouldn't help him catch the crocodile. The night was quiet until dawn, and Galen got up early and looked at the place where Renekton had told him yesterday. By the time most of the crocodiles left, only 5 crocodiles on the beach did not leave, and Galen dragged all the crocodiles to the soaked coffin in three times, and then bled out, and the coffin desperately sucked up the blood, looking terrifying, but Galen had adapted to it and did not show any unnatural expressions.

Galen cut off a small piece of crocodile meat, cooked it himself, and ate it. Renekton wouldn't wake up during the day, Galen didn't have anything to do, but he was so energetic that he couldn't sleep, so he had to take out his storm sword and swing it and practice his swordsmanship. A few hours later, Galen was tired before he sat down to rest.

In the evening, Galen asked Reekton how much he had recovered, and Renekton said, "It's much better, I can suppress more than a dozen crocodiles tomorrow." When Galen heard this, he said that he would do his best to help Renekton catch the crocodile, and then he didn't speak, and became obsessed, and the day passed like this.

On such days, Galen spent 5 days in a row, helping Renekton catch almost 90 crocodiles. Galen looked at the skin and bones of the crocodiles piled up like a small mountain, staring blankly, not knowing what he was thinking, Galen suddenly thought of something, and jumped up directly.
