Chapter 408: Resurrection Town
"Then you mean to send us to your base camp to die?"
Hearing this, Jason next to him couldn't help but complain, isn't this lie a little too low-level?
"No, no, no, that's not my home base."
Listening to the words of the undead head, Arka could sense that he was telling the truth.
Perhaps there is no flesh and blood bondage, only this dry bone remains, and even the soul is manifested in the skull. His mental fluctuations were so noticeable that Arka was able to catch them very easily.
He can clearly capture the fluctuations of his emotions, even if there is a little concealment, he can detect it.
"Specifically, is it safe for us to go to this island?"
Hearing Alka's words, the captain's head hurriedly said: "That's right, the people on the island of the dead are actually quite hospitable, they are all good people.
They are all normal civilians, and we are pirates. ”
As soon as these words came out, not to mention Alka, the surrounding Xia Daiti and the others shook their heads speechlessly.
Will anyone really believe this?
"Why?" Arka asked suddenly.
Because he realized that this sentence was actually true.
"Like I said before, we're all normal human beings. It's just that we woke up inexplicably and became like the undead now, and we don't feel like we're really undead. ”
"Then why did you start attacking when you saw us?"
“…… I want to see if you can kill us. The undead's head said suddenly.
Hearing this, Arka frowned, lifted her head slightly, and faced herself.
"The way you begged for mercy just now doesn't look like you're begging for death."
"That's because I've sensed it, you can't kill us. Since you can't kill me, then I naturally don't want to die, after all, it's still very painful.
I'm not a masochist, of course I can live if I want to, if you can really kill me, you see if I ask for it. ”
The skull babbled.
"Interesting." Arka said, as he could sense that the skeleton was telling the truth. There's no intention to hide it at all, and it's extremely indifferent.
The skeleton they had dug out of the coffin was also alive after its head had been shattered by the light.
And some skeletons began to gather and revive on the surrounding ghost ships.
After thinking for a moment, he said to the skull, "Now take us to the Island of the Dead." ”
"Huh? I don't really want to go back. ”
Hearing this, Arka directly pinched his skull hard.
"Go, go, I'll lead the way. Did you hear the little ones? All tmd give me a way in front! ”
The surrounding undead immediately sprang into action and began to drive the two necromantic ships forward.
On the way through the fog, in front of everyone. The ghost ship, which had been chiseled by Xia Daiti, resurfaced from the sea, and some of the broken wooden planks in the water could be seen beginning to be put back together.
It's as if it had never been destroyed.
The skeletons that had been smashed and swept into the sea began to converge from the ship.
The dead skeletons came back to life, including the first mate, who had been preparing to usurp the throne.
He even went to Bororo's side and asked if he could give him back his golden prosthetic eye, which was important to him.
Poloro looked at the golden prosthetic eye in his hand and stuffed it directly into his eye socket.
However, the plug is reversed.
"See, just like this, you can't die no matter how you die, but you can feel the pain of your soul because of death."
While he was speaking, the undead and skeletons were already rolling around on the deck, even wailing in pain.
It took a while for the uncomfortable sound to subside. The undead finally got back on their feet.
Then, as if the pain of stalking did not exist, he began to chat with the undead next to him.
A strange scene validated his claim.
It also made everyone more curious about this island.
"Is this island your former home? Are the islands all the original people of this island? ”
To Alka's question, the skeleton replied in the negative: "No, we were only compatriots of one country at most.
It's not an island man. ”
"Compatriots of a nation?"
"That's right, a country destroyed by the war of the gods, when we wake up, we have become undead and become the inhabitants of this island, drifting on this white sea."
The message of this is a bit big, these undead are actually from the era of divine war?
"Have you ever calculated how long it will take to wake up?" Lucilia asked impatiently on Alka's shoulder.
"I've calculated, it's probably five or six thousand years, who will remember the specific time, anyway, the time here is very chaotic."
It has been passed down from the era of the Divine War to the present, but it has only been five or six thousand years since it woke up?
In other words, they woke up after a long time after the Divine War.
This is what it is like when I wake up.
Thinking of this, Arka asked, "Why didn't you want to go back before?" ”
"Like I said, the people on the island are fairly normal peace-loving people. Do you think how many normal ones do I have on this boat?
How can we get along and not kill each other. ”
Hearing this, a few people nodded, and there was some truth in what he said.
These undead skeletons on their ship are normal by the standards of the necromancy, but they are a bit outrageous by the standards of normal people.
Their ships cut through the fog and soon saw a clear outline of the island.
The island was much smaller than they thought, and when Alka looked at it, it felt about twice as large as his hometown of Golden Wheat Ear Island, and it was the kind that could be seen from the sea at a glance.
With the ghost ship docking.
Arka: They saw floating ghosts, moving skeletons, and bodies that looked like dried corpses.
The skeletons and zombies were dressed in normal clothing, and they didn't even have any weapons on their hands.
"What are you goddamn guys doing ashore? Didn't you say that you want to float on the sea for the rest of your life? ”
One of the leading skeletons said, holding a battered fishing rod in his hand.
"It's your, fisherman, if you want to go to the island, you can go to the island!"
Facing this skeleton, the captain who was caught by Arka scolded directly.
"Oops, I hit a hard stubble, and my head was pinched in my hands by others, it's really laughing to death, hahahaha."
Faced with the captain's predicament, the undead on the shore did not hesitate to start laughing.
Obviously, the relationship between the two sides is not good, as the pirate captain said.
"Narissa, hurry. After writing down this scene, I must draw it well, and I will hang it in the square. ”
"Yes, remember to depict it in detail when the time comes, and I'm going to make a statue of this scene."
"That's right, that's what it is. I can't help but choreograph a dance for today's happy event. ”
Those undead on the shore, you say a word to me, crazy fall into the well.
"You damn things, I'm going to pull your bones out and feed them to the dogs!" The skull in Arka's hand scolded.
"Haha, Baggett, if you could do it, you wouldn't be floating on the sea."
Obviously, Arka's ship was still at least a hundred or two hundred meters away from the shore, but these undead began to curse each other from such a distance.
It made Arka a little embarrassed for a while.
Soon the ship docked, and the three ghost boats directly got out of the way, and the distance of forty or fifty meters on the shore was not advancing.
Even at the behest of the first mate, he began to sink into the water and left.
But their captain is still in the hands of Arka.
Yes, I am not worried at all.
The sound of dawn leaned against the shore, and there was a very well-established harbor here, although it was a little small.
But after all, only the arka and their ship are more than enough.
As the Arka people walked towards the sound of dawn.
The undead leaned in.
Several people carefully observed these undead, and after a closer look, these undead were actually very clean.
I didn't feel the smell of corruption that is characteristic of the undead at all.
The ghost of a woman floated over, the girl she had just been called Narissa.
The spirit is dressed to look like an artist.
Several people actually felt the fragrance on the ghost's body, as if they were sprayed with perfume.
If it weren't for the appearance of these undead, Arka, they would still really think that these were normal people.
"Rare guest, I hope our appearance doesn't scare you." The skeleton with the fishing rod at the head walked over and said.
The skeleton was dressed in a clean but somewhat tattered waistcoat, holding a fishing rod in his hand and wearing a small flat hat on his head.
It looks very decent.
"Hello, I asked him before I came here, and I probably have a certain understanding of this place." Arka shook his head and said.
The skeleton nodded, "My name is Berner, and I'm the lighthouse keeper on the island, and that's where I work." He pointed as he spoke.
Just about 300 meters from the port, Arka saw a lighthouse embedded in the island.
However, there was apparently no light on the lighthouse, only a handful of campfires that seemed to be burning on it.
"If your friend doesn't mind, you can put his head down, although this is a scumbag, but it's still our clan."
Arka nodded, and threw the skull in his hand directly to the ground.
I can't kill it anyway.
With a few screams of pain, the skull slammed into the ground a few times. Bone after bone, I don't know where to start to drill out and converge. It then formed a skeletal body and stood up again against his head.
Bagot shook his head when he stood up, and only shook his body when he was sure it was installed.
Let your bones crackle.
Turning his head to look at the girl's spirit next to him.
"Oh, Nalissa, you seem to be prettier than last time. What a fragrant smell, is it the perfume of luminous flowers? ”
Looking at Baggett leaning over, Narissa had an unusually disgusted expression and walked around the side to open the distance.
"Go away from Baggett and wash the seaweed off your body before you speak."
"It's so ruthless, a lady wouldn't say such a vicious thing."
"You're not kind to a pirate scum like you."
Out of nowhere, Baggett took out his pirate hat and put it on his head.
Then he broke off the normal leg bone of his right leg and threw it directly into the sea in front of everyone.
Then he took out his golden prosthetic leg out of nowhere and put it on the leg bone.
From a normal walk to a limp.
As if no one was around, he walked around twice before nodding with satisfaction.
It seems that this fits his image as a pirate captain.
"Now, Admiral Baggett is back."
Looking at this scene, Bernard shook his head helplessly and said to Alka: "Don't blame friends, every race has people with bad brains, if you don't mind, come with us." ”
As he spoke, several undead directly skipped Baggett and treated him like air. With Alka, the men walked towards it.
Where you can see the port, there are some tiled floors.
Although there are traces of maintenance, it is indeed dilapidated.
There are more than a dozen steps connecting the top, followed by a slightly winding path.
All the way up the ramp further up.
Looking at the few people who left, Bargett shrugged helplessly and limped to follow.
Crossing the ramp and over the stairs, the Aka men came to the top. Then they saw a small town not far from what they could see.
There is still a faint fog around it, so it looks a little dim even during the day, and there are still some lights burning in the village.
Stone houses are scattered all over the place, and all kinds of house buildings are located on the island.
You can see that the island is slightly dilapidated, with sparse vegetation, and all that is exposed is the island's dirt and some rubble.
However, you can still see some gray-black woods and grass.
It just adds to the gloom of the island.
"This is the resurrection town, and it's the only town on the island. Our people live here. Bernard said, leading the group over.
As the crowd passed by the path, a big hole suddenly popped up in the dirt next to it, and a hand stretched out along the dirt.
"Who's out there? Is it Bernard? Hurry up, I can't get out. "Some young voices came from the dirt, and they sounded a little dull.
Without waiting for Bernard to pass, Baggett limped behind him.
"You stupid stinky boy, let your uncle pull you out."
"Is it Bagget? How did you get back? There was some surprise in the sound of the dirt.
Then Baggett grabbed the bone with both hands and pulled it outward.
A large patch of dirt began to loosen.
Then there was a click, and Bargett fell straight to the ground, still holding a shaking hand bone in his hands.
"Hey! You ripped my hand off! ”
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry stinky boy, forget it, I'd better just dig you out." As he spoke, in front of everyone, Baggett formed five fingers into claws and pulled upward.
The dirt instantly scattered to the side, and Arka watched this scene, squinting his eyes slightly, and he felt the breath of the treasure.
He had just wondered why the pirate didn't use the treasure in the face of his attack. It turns out that the ability of the treasure should be to manipulate the soil or the earth?
With such a treasure, but being a pirate at sea, I have to say that it is a little abstract.
The dirt spread out with its strength, and a skeleton crawled out of the dirt.
"Thanks." As he spoke, the corpse came out and shook his body. A large amount of dirt slid down the crevices of his dry bones.
And some dirt was inside his trousers.
"Aren't you going to take your pants off?" Baggett said.
Listening to the skeleton that seemed to be relatively young, you looked at Arka and the others, and actually showed embarrassment.
"Well, there's someone here."
For a moment, Arka and the others didn't know what to say.
Skeleton...... Are there any leaks?
Baggett slapped him on the head, nearly slapping his skull off the neck.
"Wake up, you're not a normal person now!"
"Okay." The boy's voice was a little low.
Berna also took the opportunity to take Arka and they walked inside.
Some of the skeletal residents were also scattered around the path, some chatting. Some just stared at the sky in a daze.
Looking at Arka, these skeletons of normal people all cast the eye sockets of the black hole, but everyone can feel their curious emotions very clearly through the ethereal soul fire in the eye sockets of the black hole, which is very strange.
"It's a strange island." Xia Daiti said beside him.
All the way, Julia kept her eyes slightly squinted and frowned, and she kept probing her surroundings and probing the changes in them.
Passing through the trail, large areas of buildings began to appear.
Spirits floated around in midair, skeletons and corpses roamed the streets.
This is the town where the undead creatures live.
It was also a sight that Arka had never seen before, just standing at the door of the town and watching.
"Oh, there are still strangers who can go to the island, can't Bagget?" An old cadaver with a pitch-black wooden crutch approached, looked at Arka and said.
"What do you mean, old man?" Baggett, who was following behind, asked unhappily.
The old man turned his head and stared at Baggett with black eyes.
"Oh, I didn't see you Bagget, you actually went to the island." As he spoke, he seemed to be observing Baggett closely.
"It looks like you've been taught a hard lesson by these outsiders, but unfortunately I didn't see it."
"Grandpa Mugui, I saw it, I'll draw one for you later." Narissa said suddenly.
"Okay, I'll definitely appreciate it."
Such a conversation made Baggett extremely unhappy.
Arka and the others finally knew how unpopular this pirate captain was in this hellish place.
It's almost like a rat crossing the street, and everyone has to step on it when they see it.
Jason stood next to him, looking at the skeleton next to him.
"My brother, you really can't do this, what are you doing in this place? Make everyone hate you so much. ”
Faced with Jason's question, Bargett tilted his head, not wanting to answer at all.
