Chapter 70: Black Tern Island
Under the cold moonlight, Lake Vigema at night is as calm as a mirror.
A faint layer of mist shrouded the surface of the lake, making it impossible for ordinary people to see the direction of the lake at all.
The fisherman king steered the wooden boat, like a sickle, and quickly cut through the flat lake, leaving a series of ripples.
Wayne was playing with a black pearl he had received from Lala, the size of an egg, with a smooth and shiny surface, but there seemed to be some kind of wonderful charm inside, which could involuntarily attract the attention of others.
This is what Lala's brother Fitz stole from, and the school badge on his body reacts to the black pearl, but Wayne's knowledge does not record anything about this pearl.
The fisherman king, who was driving the boat at the bow of the boat, remained silent, as if he had practiced a closed mouth meditation, and did not say a word except for the "departure" at the beginning.
However, judging by the speed and stability of his ship, this guy who looks like an old man should have quite a lot of physical strength and control, and not as weak as he seems.
After about half an hour of sailing, an island covered with trees and vegetation gradually appeared in the field of vision of the three of them.
The area of Black Tern Island is quite large, almost comparable to the entire new city of Virginma, and not only that, but in those places covered by vegetation and rocks, you can still vaguely see the remains of some ancient buildings, I don't know if they are the remains of elves from thousands of years ago, or the remains of an earlier ancient race.
However, these ruins have long been abandoned, and the civilization that lived on them no longer exists, and now this desert island has been overrun by a large number of wild animals and plants, as well as half-fishmen.
After landing on the island in the middle of the lake, the fisherman king, dressed in a shabby linen robe, took a firewood knife from the bow of the boat, found a stone and sat down, looked at Lala with cloudy eyes, and said:
"I'll wait for you here."
After saying this, he fell silent again.
Wayne glanced at the Fisherman King, thinking that this mysterious figure should have the ability to protect himself, so he turned to Lala and asked:
"Lala, do you have a way to determine your brother's location?"
"If not, you can stay here with the fisherman king and wait for me."
He originally just asked tentatively, but he didn't expect the little guy to really have some means, she raised the colorful conch around her neck as if showing off, and said:
"Wayne, I can find my brother, and my brother also has a conch on him, as long as I blow this one in my hand, I can sense where my brother is."
Wayne raised his eyebrows, feeling that the goddess of the lake was really very kind to the Lala family, and gave them a lot of good things, after thinking about it for a few seconds, he said:
"In that case, Lala, you can use the invisibility spell to follow me."
"Stay safe and don't go near any monsters!"
The little guy nodded obediently, picked up the colorful conch on his chest, put it in his mouth and blew it.
No sound came out, and after an invisible fluctuation spread, she blinked, pointed to the southern part of the Dark Night Strike Island, and said:
"I feel it, brother over there, Wayne."
After saying that, the little earth spirit Lala blew the colorful conch again, and her body quickly became invisible, carefully following behind Wayne.
There is a dense forest in the center of the island, and the fastest way to get to the south indicated by Lara is through this forest.
However, entering the unfamiliar woods at night is undoubtedly a dangerous thing, and after thinking about it for a few seconds, Wayne decided to be cautious and quietly proceeded around the outer edge of the forest.
Anyway, as long as you know the location of Xiao Diling Fitz, you can find him with a little more time.
The sneaking all the way was quite smooth, although there were a few wild wolves and brown bears on the way, but with Wayne's Yakshifayin pacified, there was no fighting.
After another half hour, Wayne and Lala finally bypassed the forest area, through a wilderness overgrown with flowers and plants, and came to a damp cave near the lake.
As far as the eye could see, several monsters with sticks and bony spears, with fish heads, were standing near the cave in a daze, whispering something to the cave, apparently not letting other creatures into the cave.
Looking at their posture of being able to move freely in the dark without the need for torches, Wayne frowned, guessing that the creature also had the ability to see darkly.
But it's also right to think that life at the bottom of a lake or under the sea is obviously different from that on land, without sunlight, and light cannot enter such a deep place, if you want to live there, you must be able to move freely in the dark.
He turned his head to Lala, who was following him and was in a state of invisibility, and whispered:
"Your brother should be in that cave, but there should be some danger there, you wait for me here, don't go in, I'll deal with it alone."
The little guy was quite well-behaved, and he didn't have any chances, and immediately nodded and said:
"Yes, Wayne, but you have to be careful, may the goddess bless you."
After explaining the explanation, Wayne took a few steps back, found the back of a huge stone, sat down cross-legged, and took out the swallow potion, the wolf potion, and the Maribo Forest potion from the demon pattern storage bag.
These three potions can increase Wayne's body recovery speed, attack speed, and spell casting speed respectively.
Because considering that the target of this attack was a monster with weak defense, such as the half-fish man, he did not take thunder to increase his strength, but decided to strengthen his advantage of fast attack speed, which can cause damage in a very short time.
After drinking the three bottles of potions, Wayne felt that his body seemed to be able to continue to endure more poison, thought about it for a few seconds, gritted his teeth and took out a bottle of cat potion from the storage bag, and poured it down in one gulp.
Soon, as his eyes became bloodshot and things around him became clearer, a feeling of itching and pain filled his veins and muscles.
It was the body that told him that the toxicity had reached its limit and could not continue to increase.
Wayne let out a breath of turbidity, endured the discomfort of his body, and took out a bottle of invisibility potion and a bottle of healing potion from Azeroth from the storage bag, and put them in his waist bag along with seven or eight alchemy bombs.
No one knows how many half-fishmen there are in the cave, and these alchemy bombs and potions are what he relies on to save his life.
When everything was ready, Wayne hid the steel sword behind the stone, took a deep breath, drew the master-grade silver sword in his hand, kicked the ground with both feet, lowered his body, and with the help of the cover of weeds, rushed towards the half-fish men guarding the entrance of the cave at an extremely fast speed.
These subhuman creatures, who are generally between 1.2 and 1.4 meters tall, never imagined that someone would attack them at night.
Before he could react, the three half-fish men closest to Wayne had already fallen in his cold sword light, and their heads were cut off by the sharp silver swords.
At the same time, Wayne also noticed that these half-fishmen were much less powerful than normal human males, and although they had limbs, the structure of their limbs and joints made them unable to be as flexible as humans.
However, their bodies were wrapped in a thick layer of scales, like fish scales, densely stacked in many layers, and the silver sword would cause a little obstacle when cut down, which was equivalent to wearing a leather armor.
After killing three fishmen in a row, the other fishmen also reacted a little, and a half-fishman with a slightly fat body and only one eye left was the fastest, it picked up the spear in its hand, tilted its head, screamed, and stabbed Wayne in the lower abdomen.
However, his speed was obviously much worse than Wayne's, and as soon as the spear made of fish bones was raised, Wayne's silver sword stabbed through his only remaining fish eye at lightning speed, instantly destroying the half-fishman's already underdeveloped brain.
After killing the fish-man, Wayne did not stop, immediately drew his silver sword, twisted his waist, kicked away the corpse of the half-fishman in front of him, and launched a rapid oblique slash at the other half-fishman closest to him.
The fish-man obviously had some combat experience, and he raised a rusty iron axe to block the slash with the axe, but Wayne's speed was not at all what these monsters weaker than water spirits could react.
Before the half-fishman could raise its arm, the sharp sword light had already cut off half of its body.
Fishy blood gushed out, and the fishy body was split in two, Wayne did not dodge or dodge, with the help of the cover of blood, another horizontal slash, directly slashed off the last half-fishman at the entrance of the cave.
From the launch of the attack to the end of the battle, in less than half a minute, the six half-fishmen had already fallen under Wayne's sword.
To put it bluntly, the fifth-level swordsmanship blessing, coupled with the skill expertise of the cat's agility, the agility talent of the half-elf, and the enhancement of the wolf potion, Wayne's attack speed is definitely the top in the entire Northern Kingdom.
Dealing with these weak half-fishmen who are still using bone spears and wooden sticks, and don't even have a decent set of armor, is as easy as chopping melons and vegetables.
