Chapter Eighty-Five: Beast Hunting Activities Are About to Begin (2nd Update)
"Oh, it turned out to be the ...... of the Sacred Temple"
Horn nodded slightly, but before he could finish his head, he jerked his head up.
"You...... What are you talking about? Where are you going back?"
Horn's face suddenly came to Xue Zhe, his breathing became a little heavier, and he gasped for breath, with a look of disbelief on his face.
Xue ...... Brother Xue, you just said that you want to go back...... Which temple is it? It's not inland, is it?"
When Xue Zha heard Horn's words, he directly gave him a big roll of the eyes.
"I said Brother Huo, you heard that the place in the inland dares to call the name of the Holy Courtyard, in the entire Wenyu Continent, there is only this one on the sea, okay, there is no semicolon!"
Xue Zha was really a little speechless to Horn, who in the Wenyu Continent didn't know that the highest school with the highest number of scholars was the Holy Academy, who dared to use the name of the Holy Academy?
This is not like the earth, all kinds of knockoffs and shoddy products, here, whoever dares to steal the name of the Holy Courtyard is equivalent to slandering the gods that people respect, this is not a simple problem, it will kill people.
So, Xue Zha really didn't know what Horn thought, was he so powerful when he went to a holy courtyard?
"I said Brother Huo, you said that you are an island owner, to put it mildly, there is no difference between you and those pirates, you are also a serious eight hundred Jianghu people, when did you become so interested in the sacred courtyard of scholars?"
After Xue Zha said this, he saw a look of surprise on Horn's face, as if he was looking at an idiot.
"You really don't know? What does the Holy Courtyard represent on the sea? Let me tell you, when it comes to the names of some powerful people in the Holy Courtyard, they can even drink back the sea beasts of the fifth order or so. ”
Xue Zha was stunned when he heard Horn's words, when was the Holy Courtyard so good, and reporting a name could still have a deterrent effect.
But...... If that's the case, then what did the Sacred Academy do to the sea beast race that made them so afraid?
"The military merit system of the Holy Academy seems to be aimed at sea beasts, and over the years, many sea beasts should have been killed, including many eighth-order sea beasts. ”
The more Xue Zhe thought about it, the more he felt that this idea was closer to the truth.
When the people he sent out were killed, bitten and devoured by the sea beasts, the figure continued to lengthen, and Jack's eyes became extremely gloomy.
His original plan was to rely on his men to clear the way and attract the attention of the sea beasts so that he could take advantage of the chaos to escape.
To put it bluntly, it was to use everyone as bait to attract the attention of the sea beasts, and Jack took advantage of the chaos to leave.
But he didn't know that Xue Zhe had used potions to attract so many sea beasts, and the madness of these sea beasts was stimulated, and he had no ability to think at all, so how could he give him a chance to escape.
They will tear apart all living things that come before their eyes until the potion is effective.
But Jack is a man who likes to take risks and chances, and even if his subordinates don't give him enough time, he won't wait where he is.
This point happened to be taken advantage of by Xue Zhe again, adventurous people will not be satisfied with the status quo, and waiting for the place to do nothing is something they will not do, so Jack will definitely appear, even if he is the only one left.
I saw pirates pouring out around the island, some boating, some using idioms, and some diving to leave.
But without exception, they all died under the attack of the sea beast, and even some people died on the spot just by the attack of the sea beast element.
Xue Zha looked at the Shura-like scene in front of him, a little unbearable, he just wanted Jack's life alone, and he didn't want to involve so many people.
So, he suddenly felt a little guilty in his heart, turned his back against the side of the boat, and raised his head to look up at the starry sky.
"Is the sea so cruel? Either you die or I die?
A strange thought suddenly appeared in Xue Zhe's mind, and he smiled self-deprecatingly, throwing the ridiculous thought out of his mind.
This is not a problem that he can think about now, what he has to do now is to get rid of Jack, and then let Tang Long'er recover the pirates in this sea area, and finally, use Tang Long'er's power to hunt more sea beasts and complete his mission.
In this way, he can get more resources to return to the Holy Island, and at the same time, he can see Pan Xiaolian earlier.
Tang Long'er seemed to notice Xue Zha's displeasure, she walked up to Xue Zha, handed him a cup of hot tea, and asked softly.
"What's the matter? You seem a little unhappy? Can't bear to kill so many people?"
Tang Long'er tilted her head and looked at Xue Zha, quite a little girl's playfulness.
Xue Zha took the hot tea from her hand, glanced at her, took a deep breath and did not speak.
The smile on Tang Long'er's face retracted, and he pursed his lips slightly.
"Actually, you don't have to feel guilty, those pirates don't do anything evil that they don't do, they didn't die innocently, you can be regarded as helping many people take revenge, each of those pirates has blood on their hands, they are all murderers, and they never blink when they kill!"
Tang Long'er raised his fist and waved, an expression of indignation on his face.
"If I had that strength, I would also kill them, on this sea, there shouldn't be such people, you may not know, Captain Jack has rules for accepting people, he doesn't accept pirates who haven't killed anyone, the more people he kills, the higher the position he gives." ”
Tang Long'er seemed to be afraid that Xue Zhe would not believe it, and said a piece of news that would make him feel better.
"Okay, don't persuade me, in fact, I have killed many more people than you think, but ...... Well, I'm a little tired of killings and fearless sacrifices. ”
Xue Zha took a sip of hot tea, shook his head gently, and looked at Tang Long'er with deep eyes.
"No matter who it is, even if he is a murderer or a murderer, he is still a person after all, at sea, there is no power to fight back against such creatures as sea beasts, why would they be pirates? Is it because they like to kill, no, I can tell you clearly, no one is born to kill, they are all forced......"
Xue Zha sighed softly, turned around again, put his arms on the side of the boat, and looked in the direction of the island.
At this time, all the pirates who wanted to leave the island had been torn apart by the sea beasts, and the thick smell of blood wafted on the surface of the sea, and it was impossible to distinguish whether it was sea beasts or human blood.
"If at sea, human beings can balance the sea beasts with their own strength, the pirates will not appear, they can't beat the sea beasts, so they can only rob, rob ordinary people, rob ordinary people, and even rob the resources of other pirates, because they are very poor, and in order to live, they must do this. ”
The corners of Xue Zhe's mouth hooked slightly, as if he saw that Captain Jack had pulled the few remaining people to set up the boat and prepare to leave.
"I don't know everything about the sea, but from my observation during this time, I can see that sea beasts are far more ferocious and cruel than humans, and how small and humble many people are before them. ”
Xue Zha took another sip of hot tea, exhaled softly, turned sideways and handed the teacup back to Tang Long'er.
He didn't explain it, and it wasn't until this moment that he could figure out why the people of the Holy House would issue missions to hunt sea beasts, or why the Holy Ship would always go to sea so often.
The holy island is located on the sea, surrounded by sea beasts, and they are a powerful force on the sea, a line of defense to protect human beings, they must fight for the survival of human beings, in order to give more people a chance to live, they must hunt sea beasts.
