As the Narwhal’s searchlights came over, an island full of greenery appeared in front of all the crew.
This good news dilutes the thrills just now. The excited Charles took out the chart and re-calibrated the coordinates.
As long as the coordinates of the first island are found, the coordinates of the other islands on this island chain will be much easier to determine, and this also directly proves that the chart is true.
The Narwhal began preliminary exploration around this island. After a round, Charles found that the island was not big, and it was estimated to be only half the size of a coral island.
He judged that the probability of this place having a surface entrance is very small, but no matter how small it is, he still has to go up and take a look.
Charles still followed the previous steps and threw some marine fish up there. Seeing that there were no living creatures coming out, he sent the first crew to the island, just in case, something was destroyed directly by something. As he walked home nearby, he became more cautious.
Two hours later, the first crew came out of the woods and stood on the beach with flags.
"No threat." Charles discerned the meaning of the semaphore.
"Anchor! Turn off the furnace!" The two wooden boats were put down, and all the crew approached the island.
Deep, who has priority on the island, said with excitement: "Captain, come on, I found a broken house here."
Charles followed him into the forest without saying a word, and through a forest path cut with a knife, he saw a three-story hut surrounded by vines.
This hut is so dilapidated that Charles is wondering whether this cracked hut was supported by the vines that climbed the outer wall.
"Captain, there is no one inside, not even a dead body."
Charles led a group of people into the building carefully, everything in the house was covered with dust, as if forgotten by history.
"Look around and find any text message to notify me." Upon hearing the captain's order, the crew began to look for the building, dust was rising, and coughing in the house continued.
Charles casually picked up a water glass made of unknown material, but it was shattered when he touched it lightly.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!
When he rushed into the room where the sound came from, he saw the four sailors huddled together, holding their guns and looking around nervously.
"What did you see? Why did you shoot just now?"
"Captain! Over there! We just saw something running by!" The sailor pointed at the innermost side of the messy house with his muzzle.
Charles pulled out the black blade in an instant and rushed over, all kinds of messy things were thrown out by him, but no living thing was found.
Charles cast his gaze on a corner of the wall, where a crack in the wall was cracked, and there was a row of small footprints on the ground.
He squatted down and looked down the crack, a human eye with a blue pupil flashed through it. "There is something in it!"
Charles immediately stood up and rushed to the next room, but he regretted it when he got to the bottom, and did not find the figure of the owner of the eye.
He returned to the original room and carefully distinguished the footprints on the ground. The footprints were only half a centimeter wide, which was really small and pitiful. Charles judged that its owner was no more than 5 centimeters tall.
"Aboriginal people on the island?" Charles immediately recalled the villain who had emerged from his head.
But he abandoned this idea in a blink of an eye. The eyes he saw from inside just now were obviously the size of a normal human eye. A contradiction appeared. How does a normal human pass through a crack that is one finger wide?
"Captain! What's the matter! I heard gunshots!"
"Did something happen?"
"What happened here just now?"
The other crew members of the Narwhal rushed over at this time, and asked all the questions.
Charles stood up and told them the situation just now. "There are living things on this island, everyone should be careful."
Seeing that everyone’s faces were a little nervous, Charles said:
Don’t worry too much, no matter what the thing is, it’s hiding us now, not us hiding them.
Then, Charles asked them: "Did you find any clues in other rooms?"
Seeing everyone shaking their heads, there was a trace of disappointment on Charles's face, but he felt that it was reasonable that his luck had not been very good and it was impossible to find his way home on the first island.
led by Charles, a group of people walked out of the building and continued to explore the island.
The road in the woods is not easy to walk, there are vines and branches everywhere, and a knife must be used to make a way.
After walking for two hours, Charles estimated in his heart that he would not even be there for 1 mile. Looking at the tired and panting crew members, he ordered a rest.
"Doctor, do you know these plants on the island?" Charles asked the old man eating bread.
"Do you regard me as almighty? How can I know the plants on the desert island~EbookFREE.me~ I can only judge that these plants should not be able to eat people."
Richard interjected directly, "Man, there are so many trees in this place, which proves that the ground in this place is good, and it must be able to farm. As long as you find fresh water, then the island will be able to live on!"
"It's not that simple. There are only plants in this place, but no animals."
At the time when the two were discussing, the doctor next to him suddenly collapsed on the ground with pain. Charles rushed over and helped him up. "Doctor, what's the matter! Speak!"
The doctor with a ferocious expression stretched out his iron hand and clasped it randomly on his chest. "Damn it! Something is biting me! Help me get it off!"
Charles opened his coat and found that a round pie was squirming quickly inside the doctor's blood-stained coat.
did not dare to delay, he instantly raised the black blade in his hand and picked everything along the top of the thing. Accompanied by the doctor's painful grunt, the living creature wrapped in clothing was picked tens of meters away.
Charles lowered his head and looked at the doctor's chest. He was shocked by the wound. The large piece of skin on the left side of the doctor's abdomen was gone, revealing the thick ribs.
"My God, what did you put in your clothes!"
"Damn it! I didn't put anything, the inside of my clothes is your mask!" The painful doctor finished, holding a bag of powder and trembling on the wound.
"096?" Charles turned his head and looked to the ground, and saw the pale clown with a mask of flesh and blood in his mouth moved out of the rag.
"The mask is alive?" Everyone stared at the absurd scene in front of them.
Without waiting for other people's reactions, the 096 pair of people showed a terrifying face and rolled into the woods like a wheel.
