The island is not big, only the size of two or three squares.

The vegetation is sparse and looks bare.

"Here! Over here! ”

On the gravel shore, a ragged man was waving excitedly, his body was purple from the cold, his lips were bloodless, but his expression was full of hope and anticipation.

As the small fishing boat gradually approached, the man's originally weak body seemed to be infused with infinite vitality, shouting and running towards the fishing boat.

Even if his bare feet were scratched by the rubble on the ground, he was indifferent.

When the fishing boat docked, several young men jumped out of his surprised gaze and came to the rocky beach. Although the other party was a little vigilant and vigilant, the man didn't care, took a few steps forward, and while he still had the strength to speak, he hurriedly said:

"Ask for ...... Please, bring me back to Port of Enlightenment, I ......"

"Don't rush yet, speak slowly."

Raphael frowned, took a cup of pre-prepared hot water from Lucy's hand and handed it to the man.

"Thank you...... Thank you! ”

The man held the hot water and drank it up greedily and quickly.

After taking a few breaths, he calmed down his excitement and told his story.

It turned out that this guy's name was Teddy, the captain of a small merchant ship, and he used to be in the business of sea wine and leather, "sea wine" is a local specialty liquor in Tusport, which sells well in other places, and is considered a very popular commodity.

However, two days ago, Teddy's merchant ship accidentally encountered a storm in this area, and the ship deviated directly from the course, and even overturned, and finally the ship was destroyed and killed...... Fortunately, he, the captain, floated to this small island, and with the few supplies scattered along the shore, he has survived until now.

"Can you take me back to Tusport? Although the boat is gone, I still have some savings that I can take out as compensation...... As long as my life is alive, it's enough! ”

Captain Teddy pleaded.

As he spoke, he was afraid that a few people would disagree, so he kept groping on his body, and finally took off a ring on his finger and hurriedly handed it to Raphael.

"This is the only thing of value on me, I hope you will show kindness and bring me back......"

Unexpectedly, after Raphael took it, his face changed greatly.

The ring in his hand is bronze in its entirety, with a square emerald set and an oblique cross engraved with it.

Feliciano on the side felt familiar, and the ring handed over by Captain Teddy was very similar to the one he had obtained from the beggar some time ago......

Take a closer look, which is similar, it is clearly exactly the same!

"Damn it!"

Raphael cursed in a low voice, and he suddenly felt that what he was holding in his hand was not a ring, but a bomb that had been ignited!

The intense uneasiness prompted him to throw the ring to the surface of the sea.

Shout!

The emerald ring streaked in a trajectory before falling to the surface of the sea and disappearing without a trace.

"You guys, this is ......"

Captain Teddy looked shocked and puzzled.

And yet in the next second.

Rumble!!

A strange creature the size of a blue whale suddenly burst out of the sea, its head resembling a large mouth full of sharp teeth, but other than that, no other features could be seen.

The back, covered in misshapen scales and fins, was littered with all sorts of parasites, and the massive jaws snapped together with a terrifying air crack.

Everyone was amazed.

And Raphael's gaze was particularly sharp, and at a glance, he could see that at the corner of the mouth of the unknown sea monster, a light flashed.

His pupils shrank.

That's the ring I just threw out!

Rumble!

Another loud bang.

The sea monster fell back into the sea, raising a high spray like an explosion.

When the sea calmed down, everyone was still in a state of shock.

"There's something wrong with that ring, it will bring terrible bad luck......"

Raphael withdrew his gaze and said in a deep voice.

Everyone was shocked, thinking of Captain Teddy's experience, and then realized...... The reason why this person was shipwrecked was probably because of that ring, right?

"Raphael, why are there two ......?"

Felis Anno on the side couldn't help but ask.

But before he could finish his sentence, Raphael pulled him towards the fishing boat, and said to the others:

"Hurry up, it's not safe here."

The expressions of Polaris and the others were very solemn, and they trusted Raphael, so they hurriedly walked away.

The shipwrecked man named Teddy tried to follow, but Raphael turned his head and coldly stopped:

"Don't follow us!"

With a bang, the young man also drew his delicate bayonet sword from his waist, cutting through the air and aiming it straight at Teddy's throat.

The latter's expression froze, and he hurriedly raised his hands.

"When we get back, we'll find someone to come and save you, but not now...... The only thing that is, of course, is that you can survive to that time. ”

Raphael was so decisive this time that he didn't ask the rest of the people for advice, but chose to abandon the uncertainty on the island.

Ignoring Teddy's pleas, Raphael turned coldly and hurried back to the ship. He asked Polaris to pull up the anchor and steer the fishing boat away.

When the fishing boat sailed away from the island, Ahsoka and Felisiano's faces were still unbearable, but seeing Raphael's resolute attitude, they both gave up persuasion.

Feliciano walked up to Raphael and whispered about the ring, but his friend just shook his head, as if he didn't know much.

"Felice Anno, I always have a bad premonition......"

Raphael let out a long breath and stared at the sea ahead.

The North Star on the side suddenly stared.

He vaguely saw Raphael and Feliciano standing side by side, and there seemed to be some kind of pattern behind the two...... It's like two pieces of a puzzle, together they form a diagonal cross.

Others gradually noticed this scene, and Qingtian Xiaoyu couldn't help but speak:

"Lucky ......"

Halfway through speaking, after realizing something, she frantically gestured to Polaris with her eyes. The latter instantly realized and threw out a probe.

Immediately, the pupils constricted.

Felic Anno's luck is impressively "-50"!

Accompanied by a negative state "catastrophe is coming"!

Although Raphael's rank was too high for Polaris to see, his intuition told him that this person should be in a similar situation as Felice Anno.

"Raphael!"

Polaris calls in a deep voice.

The handsome young man with long curly brown hair turned his head and looked at it with a look of confusion. Polaris hurriedly said what he saw, the diagonal cross pattern behind the two of them.

Raphael and Feliciano looked at each other, both with shocked faces.

"I see, that ring is not the point at all!"

Raphael gritted his teeth suddenly.

"It's just a medium, an introduction to a ritual...... It was all arranged, and although it was a coincidence, the traces of artificial design were too obvious, so that Felice and Ino were marked at the same time! ”

He seemed to understand something, but with a solemn face he began to pace in front of the rudder, lost in thought.

Polaris and the others looked at each other, not knowing what was going on. It wasn't until Feliciano spoke up and told him about his bad luck some time ago, and that he had also obtained an emerald ring, that everyone understood what was going on.

"So someone is deliberately trying to frame you?"

Sunny day light rain road.

"So to speak......"

Raphael stopped, turned his head and said.

"But I don't know what his purpose is, if he just wants to kill us, it won't take so much effort."

"Raphael, it looks like we're all going to be out of luck."

Felice Anno smiled wryly.

As soon as he finished speaking, the fishing boat shook violently.

Syllable!!

As if they had been hit by something, everyone heard a loud noise.

"There's something attacking the hull of the ship from under the sea!"

Polaris' spiritual intuition received the warning and hurriedly said.

Raphael had just pulled out a palm-sized wax figure, and before he could activate it, the entire fishing boat completely sank!

Bang!

A huge sea monster that had just had a "one-sided edge" jumped out of the sea, and there were still fragments of countless fishing boats in its mouth.

*

I don't know how long it has been.

Felisco Awoke from a daze, he found that the sky had darkened, and there was fire and warmth on his left.

Hurriedly sat up, and he saw that Senior Sister Qingxiaoyu, Lucy and Ahsoka were all around the bonfire, among which Ahsoka seemed to be still unconscious and was held in Lucy's arms.

"You're awake, Felix Anno."

"...... are we?"

Felice Ano asked.

"The ship was sunk by a sea monster, and it was the Polaris senior who rescued us last......"

Lucy spoke.

She was grilling a string of sea fish in her hand and reached out to hand it over.

"Let's have a bite to eat first, Senior Polaris and Mr. Raphael should be back soon, and the two of them have gone around to find out."

"Thank you."

Feliciano took the grilled fish and ate it without any image.

Aside from his morning sandwich, he hasn't eaten today. The grilled fish didn't taste very good, it was quite bland, and there were many spines, but Felice Anno was so hungry that he ate the food at hand after dividing it by two.

Taking advantage of the time to eat, he listened to Lucy talk about the time that had been attacked, and it turned out that the place where it had been attacked was not far from its destination, which was the desert island where they were now.

After Polaris rescued them one by one, he and Raphael went to explore the environment and try to get their hands on the supernatural materials as soon as possible.

"Jingyao is on top, fortunately, everyone is fine."

Felice Ano prayed, and then asked with concern:

"But the ship is destroyed, how are we going back?"

"Don't worry, we've got a solution."

The sunny day gave a reassuring look, and Felix Anno was relieved. For this senior sister who seems to be younger than himself, he has special respect and trust.

Soon, there was a wave of footsteps.

Everyone turned their heads to look, only to see that in the dense coniferous forest of the desert island, two figures came quickly, it was Polaris and Raphael.

However, the expressions of the two were extremely solemn, and Raphael shouted:

"Let's go! Run along the coastline! ”

Felisco Anno was still in a daze, but Lucy on the side had already picked up Ahsoka and took a step and ran wildly.

"What are you doing? Walk! ”

Qingyu grabbed Felis Anno's arm and turned around and ran.

At the last moment, Felisianno only vaguely saw that behind Polaris and Raphael, seven or eight tall figures with their backs hunched were chasing after them.

In the gradually dimming sky, the figures seemed to be carrying a cane in their hands, and a lantern that glowed green hung from the head of the cane!

Qingtian Xiaoyu also saw it, but in her eyes, it was a group of monsters marked with crimson names-

[Transcendent creature "Egg Hatcher" (the ancient god "Emerald Bird" family)! 】
