Chapter 6: Camilla, the Loser

"Boom!!"

In an instant, the surging firelight flooded everyone's sight, and Landa and the others subconsciously crouched on the ground, but the imaginable high temperature did not hit, not even a drop of sweat.

"What?"

Everyone looked up and saw Liszt's back looming in the firelight, and in front of him was a translucent energy shield, blocking out all the rolling flames.

"Oh Maiga, Li has superpowers in addition to transformation!"

"It's incredible."

The next moment, there was a terrible scream of monsters in the sea of fire, and one by one the skeleton monitor lizards covered in flames struggled wildly around the energy shield, and occasionally the monitor lizard that crashed into the energy shield was melted by the shield in an instant, which showed that the temperature of the energy shield was far more terrifying than the flames outside.

"Li, you just need to use this ability directly, why do you want to turn into a giant?" Shan was puzzled.

Liszt tilted his head, "There is no particular reason, just because he is handsome." ”

Shan: "."

"Boom~~"

Immediately afterward, another brilliant red circle of light bloomed in the sea of fire, and the red light was like nectar falling from the sky, and the sea of fire subsided wherever it passed, leaving only a dozen scorched black monitor lizards of different sizes lying on the ground.

In the center of the sea of fire, the red giant was half-kneeling on the ground, his chest rising and falling, the wing-like red energy crystals flickering, and the speed of physical decay was far faster than he imagined.

"What's wrong with James?" Weaver frowned.

Randa pondered, "He looks tired, he must be running low on energy." ”

Shan looked at Liszt, "The light on his chest flashed after transforming into a giant, is it used to remind the enemy?" ”

Liszt crossed his arms and smiled: "Sort of, if you don't defeat the giant at this time, you won't have a chance after that." ”

Landa heard this and quickly jotted down this crucial information in her notes.

"Hum~"

As the giant shattered and turned into light particles, James collapsed to the ground drenched in sweat, unable to get up and move for a moment.

"James, how are you?" Weaver came over and handed over a bottle of water.

James took a big sip of water and slowed down, "It's okay, it's just a little tired, and the physical exertion is too great." ”

He looked at Liszt, "You appeared in front of us soon after turning into a giant before, and I didn't see how tired you were, how did you do it?" ”

"Just get used to it." Liszt replied simply.

James nodded, "I'll get used to it." ”

Holding the Evolutionary Truster, he took a deep breath.

"The giant's strength is too strong, the monitor lizards here have been wiped out, wait for me to rest and recover my strength before continuing on the road."

"No problem."

Two hours later, James finally regained some strength, and the group continued on their way.

Looking at James, who was walking in the forefront, Liszt nodded slightly.

It's quite responsible, but the physical fitness is not comparable to the previous ones, and it is estimated that it will not be long before he will die in the process of transformation.

But luckily, there are a few spare fitables here, so that James doesn't overdraw his life to fight.

After a while, everyone left the biogas basin and stepped into a desertified forest.

"Magical Skull Island, there are such big metal boulders in the desert."

As a botanist, Shan approached the giant black thorn trees in the desert, and she couldn't help but want to study them.

"I understand your scientific spirit as scientists, but you'd better stay away from it." Liszt reminded.

Hearing this, Shan immediately took a few steps back, looking vigilant.

"This tree eats people?"

"Not really."

Liszt stepped forward and patted the black trees, and the thorns on the trunks suddenly flashed with cold light.

"Poof!"

"Oh!!"

Liszt dodged sideways, but Landa was accidentally stabbed into her thigh by a thorn and rolled on the ground in pain.

Liszt: "."

"Why don't you hide?"

"Shet, how can I hide from an old man, you guy is so hateful, come and bandage me."

"It's none of my business, I'm just demonstrating it to the beautiful Miss Shan."

Liszt looked up at the sky and pointed to Shan beside him, "So it's all her fault, let her come." ”

Shan: "???? ”

"Okay, no kidding, he'll die if he doesn't get treatment in time." Weaver had no choice but to take out his medical kit and bandage Landa's wounds.

Liszt wandered around the neighborhood and found a natural crutch for Landa by the way.

"Here, don't say I'm bullying the elderly." He handed the cane to Landa.

Landa twitched his beard, "You have a conscience, but you'll have to pick out the barbs on it." ”

"No problem."

Liszt raised his hand and swiped it on the stick, smoothing out the barb simply and rudely.

Landa: "."

"I'll let you use a knife."

"I'm faster with my hands."

"You freak, don't your hands hurt?"

"It's okay, men have calluses on their hands, don't you have them?"

"I don't understand what you're saying." Old Landa blushed, "Don't make such jokes in front of two ladies, not a gentleman." ”

Liszt nodded, "So you understand." ”

"Of course, I'm all this age, do you think I'm a three-year-old?" Landa complained loudly.

Liszt said to James: "You see that he is so energetic, he must be fine, and continue on the road!" ”

Landa: "."

Because of Randa's injury, the crowd's pace is slowed down.

As it got late, the people set up tents on the small hills in the desert.

By the campfire, Weaver set up an iron pot to stew food, throwing spices into the pot from time to time.

"I looked at the map and at the current pace it will take at least two days to reach my destination." She handed the bowl and fork to Liszt.

Liszt shook his head, "There is not much food, you can eat it!" ”

"It's okay, let's divide a little bit each, we can persevere."

Weaver was a little moved when he saw Liszt take the initiative to give the food to the others.

Landa's old face moved, "Lee, actually, you. No, I don't."

Before he could finish speaking, Liszt took out a golden fruit similar to dragon fruit from his pocket, and took a bite of the juice and flew out.

Landa: "."

The rich aroma of the fruit wafted out, and everyone subconsciously swallowed their saliva.

"Lee, what kind of fruit is this, it looks delicious." Shan leaned over, salivating over the fruit.

Liszt didn't see it, and burped after a few bites.

"It's called Arogo, a guy named Nebula's favorite food."

As he spoke, he didn't know where to take out three fruits and handed them to the three of them.

"Taste it too."

"Thank you."

The three of them took the fruit and took a bite, and their faces suddenly became hideous.

"It's sour."

"Bah, bah~"

The three of them hurriedly spit out the flesh in their mouths, their faces full of disgust.

"What's the situation?"

"It's unpalatable."

Liszt grinned, "Because it's not cooked." ”

Everyone: "."

This guy really doesn't owe a beating.

"Rustle~"

Suddenly, there was the sound of grit grinding in the darkness around them, as if something was approaching them.

"Oops, there's something coming." James immediately stood up, holding the Evolutionary Truster tightly in his hands.

Liszt looked around, "James, your strength hasn't recovered yet, let someone else come." ”

James: "???? ”

"Will it work?" He hesitated.

Liszt smiled: "Trust me, no problem. ”

James glanced at Weaver, Randa, and Shan, and finally handed over the Evolution Truster to Weaver.

"Randa is injured, Shan can't fight, so I'll have to leave it to you." He said to Weaver.

Weaver reached out and took the Evolution Truster, "Don't worry, I can do it." ”

With a loud bang, the sky burst into the sky, and a huge shadow appeared in the faint firelight.

"I can't see what it is, but it's at least twenty meters high!"

"Weaver!"

At James' reminder, Weaver did not hesitate to activate the Evolutionary Truster.

"Hum~~"

The shapeshifter glows brightly, finally illuminating the shadows in the darkness.

This is a black giant centipede, one-third of its body is twenty meters tall when it stands upright, and the whole is sixty meters tall, its long body leaves a ravine in the desert that is directly several meters, and countless feet and limbs make it impossible for dense phobia to look at it directly.

"Boom!!"

The next moment, a dazzling red light bloomed in the night sky, and the "sissy" giant of light fell from the sky and thundered down into the desert, and the next moment it was entangled in the upper body by the giant centipede.

"Uh~~"

"Wow!!"

The giant centipede hissed and screamed, and the giant fell to the ground and rolled in exclamation, and the situation was very unfavorable for Weaver from the beginning.

As the battle between the two set off a sandstorm, Landa and the others hurriedly looked for cover.

In the wind and sand, Liszt could only teach on the spot.

"Weaver, listen up, concentrate and gather the energy in the palm of your hand."

"Phew!"

Hearing Liszt's words, Weaver held back his fear and tried to manipulate the power in his body.

"Frightened~"

"Boom~~"

The giant centipede bit again, and the energy that Weaver had managed to condense was forcibly interrupted.

"Uh~~"

The centipede's mouthparts bit into the back of Weaver's hand, and the pain caused her to exhale in pain, completely forgetting what Liszt had said, completely overwhelmed by the fear brought by the giant centipede.

Seeing this scene, Liszt shook his head helplessly.

As long as Camilla is still on Skull Island, Weaver will not have the aura of a heroine, she is now an ordinary woman, and she can't be as tough as in the movie.

So, he didn't waste any time and threw out a monster capsule.

"Hum~~"

"Aang!!"

Under the spatial distortion, a silver beast sixty meters huge appeared in the desert.

"Monster Capsule!" Landa and the others exclaimed.

"Ang~~"

The moment Hilbagon appeared, both Weaver and the giant centipede were so shocked by this unspeakable sense of oppression that they couldn't move.

"Frightened~"

The giant centipede hissed under its breath and quickly abandoned the giant, instead prostrate itself on the ground, shaking its head in a flattering way.

Hilbagon didn't make a move on the giant centipede, it roared at it, then turned to look at Liszt, its huge figure gradually blending into the colorful mirrors of the night sky.

Liszt: "."

After Hilbagon left, the giant centipede burrowed into the Rainbow Mirror, leaving Weaver stunned.

Landa and the others were also stunned.

"Lee, your pet."

"yes, it ran away."

The corners of Liszt's mouth twitched, "Damn it, I knew I wouldn't let it out!" ”

Hilbagon, who has been holding back for so long, has long wanted to go out and be chic, but he has never found a chance.

As Weaver withdrew from his giant form, she said with a guilty face, "I'm sorry to let your pet run away." ”

"You're not sorry for me, it's you who are sorry for yourself." Liszt said in the tone of the dean.

Weaver lowered his head, without any rebuttal.

Shan couldn't stand it anymore and explained, "Weaver is the first time. Although James is also a first time, he is a man. I."

In the end, the more she spoke, the lower her voice became, and she found that the so-called excuse was really weak.

Liszt glanced at a few people and said, "From now on, I will conduct special training for you, so that you can at least have a certain amount of combat power when you transform next time." ”

Hearing this, Weaver breathed a sigh of relief.

She knew that Liszt had forgiven her.

"I'll study hard."

"Me too."

The three of them agreed one after another.

Nothing was said all night.

The next day, the group continued their journey.

Along the way, Liszt carefully explained to the three of them how to use the power of giants.

Landa jotted it all down in her notes so as not to miss a crucial link.

Shan, on the other hand, is asking questions about her soul.

"Lee, if giants can fly, why don't you just take us away from Skull Island?" She asked, raising her hand like a schoolboy.

Liszt: "."

"Uh, this, like, oh, that's it."

As if he had found the perfect excuse, Liszt said, "There are flying monsters on Skull Island, and if we encounter them, we will not be able to deal with them. ”

The three of them suddenly realized.

"Li, you are very cautious, we will definitely be able to leave Skull Island alive if we follow you."

"Of course, there's no doubt about it."

Liszt breathed a sigh of relief.

Everyone continued on the road, encountering several monsters along the way, all of which were solved by James, who was familiar with the power of giants, and this time did not consume too much physical strength.

Even if James is a complete rookie, Nexter's basic data is not comparable to these monsters, and random punches can kill small monsters.

It wasn't until late evening that Weaver took out his map and pointed ahead.

"It's a cliff, and under the cliff is the destination."

As she spoke, she stepped forward first, and soon came to the edge of the cliff.

As far as the eye can see, there is an old cruise ship in the shallows under the cliffs.

"It's a steamer, it's been at least a few decades since you saw the signs of rust, how is it possible?"

Landa looked nearby and said, "There is no waterway here at all, how did the ship get in?" ”

Shan glanced at the thunderclouds surging in the sky, "This is the edge of Skull Island, maybe it was brought here by a waterspout. ”

She thought of the thunderstorm clouds she had encountered when she had entered Skull Island.

James frowned, "Even if this is the case, the gravity of the fall is enough to smash the ship, how can it be so well preserved." ”

Weaver put away the map, and she was about to explain, but saw Liszt's indignant look.

"It's just too much, I bought it and threw it here and ignored it, I spent so much money in vain, I really want my money to be blown by the wind!!"

Landa wondered, "Lee, what do you mean?" ”

Liszt gritted his teeth, "This is the ship that Camilla bought with money back then, I said why didn't I see her take it for maintenance, it turned out to be thrown here, this ruined girl"

Everyone: "."

Their encounters on Skull Island are getting more and more magical. (End of chapter)
