The pirates who had their ship robbed fell into fear.
Not only could that man control terrifying beasts, but he could also make the ship move on its own.
Has he mastered extraordinary powers?
These pirates are unable to fight and can only find other ways.
The big ship is gone, but there are still small boats, and there are still trees on the island, which can be completely rebuilt.
After being confused for most of the day, the remaining people gradually found their goals.
They got busy.
Until, a figure came to the village.
There were a lot of bandages wrapped around the man's body, and only one red eye could be seen, glowing slightly.
When the pirates saw this man, they shuddered subconsciously.
If the previous Lu Jian was a scary person, then this guy can only be described as a scary monster.
"I can smell her scent. Have you ever seen a woman before, wearing red and white clothes, about this tall."
Thunder from a foreign land asked.
"They took our ship!"
A pirate shouted immediately.
"Them? Who else?"
The Thunder realized the problem.
"There is also a man with a monster. The monster is like a dog, but...only more terrifying!!"
Another pirate said immediately.
Judging from the words and deeds of this bandaged man, it seems that he has a grudge against the person who robbed the pirates' ship before. The enemy of their enemy is their friend, and they want to have a good relationship with this guy.
"It seems to be the Chosen One...a dog-like monster. I don't know what kind of creature it is. Maybe it was that thing that sank our ship..."
Thunder needs to prepare and plan everything in advance. After his teammate Flash lost his life due to recklessness, he realized the importance of stability more and more.
If he hadn't been prepared in advance, he might have been swallowed up by the black shadow in the sea like other sailors.
"We can help, he stole our ship, we want revenge!"
a pirate shouted.
"Can you help?"
Thunder laughed.
"Thank you very much."
As soon as he finished speaking, the bandages all over his body were untied, revealing an almost black body underneath that looked like thick fog.
The mist continued to spread and quickly enveloped a pirate.
Before the pirate had time to call for help, his whole body quickly shriveled up and withered, like a mummy that had been left for many years.
The fog spread, screams continued, and before long, there was no longer a single pirate alive on the entire island.
Lei Lei returned to his original state, and the bandages continued to wrap around his body. However, his body was now stronger than before, as if he had received a lot of nutrients.
"They are very fast, so we have to find a way to catch up."
After finding a small boat for traveling in shallow water, Lei Lei got on it, part of the bandage was untied, and the gray mist turned into paddles, causing the boat to start moving at high speed.
As he moved forward, Lei Lei took out a coin from his bandage.
Throwing the coin up, he checked the head and tail of the coin in his hand.
"Good luck."
He laughed.
...
"According to the chart, there should be Changfeng Island ahead, which means we are close to Qiushan Island."
Under the moonlight, Lu Jian looked at the chart and estimated the distance moved with a pen, feeling happy.
But Amber on the side looked a little worried.
In the past few days, she often looked at the sea like this, falling into a kind of melancholy that made everyone else feel melancholy.
"Shouldn't you be happy? You will see other people soon. At least you can take a good bath at the port and sleep on a solid bed."
Lu Jian prompted.
For girls, not being able to take a bath is really intolerable, and bathing in sea water will make the body sticky and dirtier, so Amber only took a bath in fresh water these days.
As for Lu Jian, he has grass to clean it with, so it's not a big problem.
"yes."
Amber nodded, but her eyes flickered.
"You tell me, do I really want to become the officiating witch?"
She asked, not as if she was talking to Lu Jian, but more like she was talking to herself.
"Although I have lived very hard these days, I always feel relaxed and unburdened. Compared with those days of practice, this kind of life is actually better."
It's like a top student who has been studying hard and whose parents told him not to think about anything except studying for exams. Suddenly he takes a big vacation and doesn't need to study. He only needs to have fun, eat and sleep. For Amber, the sea
Her life is completely different from her previous one, with more freedom.
"I've been thinking about this for the past few days. Can we not go to Hedao? We can go somewhere else, anywhere. We can find a small island, build two houses, fish, and raise some animals.
Just spend your life like this.”
As she said this, she suddenly realized what she had said and hurriedly changed her words.
"I didn't mean that, I didn't want to spend my life with you..."
"I know."
"No, it's not impossible..."
"Um."
"Well, anyway... I don't want to be a witch anymore."
Amber gave up explaining.
Lu Tiaoqing understood Amber's mood very well.
To put it simply, I just want to touch it.
This had nothing to do with Lu Tan, it was just that she, who had always been tense, now had an excuse to relax, take a breath, and stop working hard.
In the past ten years, Kohaku has been instilled with the ideal of becoming a priestess and saving the world. It is difficult to say whether these ideals are what she thinks, but Kohaku does not have the right to choose.
Now that she has a choice, after experiencing the free world, Amber feels that the heavy responsibility of saving the world is too heavy.
Indeed, how could it possibly make sense to tell a teenage girl that you are the hope of the world, that the world cannot survive without you, and that you must give up your future freedom to sit in Wajima Taisha Shrine and shoot arrows every day?
Qin Tiantian, who is similar in stature to Amber, plays live games every day, fishes, lives a happy life, and is carefree. Why does Amber need to be restrained by a cage?
Lu Tiao actually couldn't figure it out either.
However, his mission is to escort Kohaku to be the officiating shrine maiden, so if Kohaku shrinks from the battle, the mission will not be completed.
"Let's go to Changfeng Island first. Without exposing your identity, how about we stay for two days and experience the life of ordinary people before making a decision?"
Lu Tan decided to go ashore to talk.
"Um."
Amber nodded, and her confusion could be seen.
Although Lu Tan could tell her that the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, but after all, this was just an idea imposed on her by others.
Seeing Amber leave, Lu Tiao let out a breath.
I didn’t expect that I would have to help teenage girls design their future lives and make career plans.
Looking at the beautiful moonlight, Lu Tan suddenly had a thought in his mind.
He looked at the mission.
[Task requirement: Escort the shrine maiden to Wajima Taisha Shrine]
[Task requirement: Witness the witch becoming the officiating witch]
Here...it doesn't seem to specify that it must be amber?
