Embers Ad Infinitum

Vol 2 Chapter 109: On the island

"This is?" Beside the milky white speedboat, Jiang Baimian saw the town guard members who followed Han Wanghuo pushing four bicycles over.

Han Wanghuo looked out at the lake that was dyed with golden sunlight, took a breath of the cold and damp winter wind, and said with a smile:

"On the island, there is still a long way to go to the temple. It is not a wise act to waste time on the road.

"Our town guard has put together a few people, and we plan to borrow some of your bicycles as a means of transportation."

Obviously, a small and simple speedboat cannot carry a car.

Shang Jian Yao was deeply moved, and seemed to call out "Brother" at any time. Jiang Baimian rushed in front of him, pinched the mask on his face, and said with a smile:

"It's rare for you to be so generous."

Han Wanghuo said frankly:

"We also hope to figure out the sleeping ‘God’ as soon as possible. Otherwise, there will be an awakener as powerful as that day among the murlocs from time to time, and we will be in trouble.

"At that time, the only hope can only be pinned on'You Gu' really blessing Hongshiji, and the vigilant sect is willing to send a fearful bishop over."

Jiang Baimian expressed his understanding of their vigilance on hidden dangers:

"Yes."

Han Wanghuo immediately pointed to the four bicycle lanes:

"These are all newly produced by ‘United Industries’, and it hasn’t been used for a year.

"Look, they all have backseats. They are imitated in the early old world style. Haha, I have always been surprised that the bicycles of the old world couldn't carry people anymore. Isn't it a waste? Isn't it a waste? The practicality is not high at all."

Jiang Baimian has never studied this issue, so he can't agree with him at will, so he can only consider it and say:

"Since there is a back seat, two cars are enough, or the speedboat will be crowded."

Han Wanghuo had no objection to this, and said while chatting:

"The smugglers of the'United Industries' previously sold us something called an electric balance scooter, which is small and easy to carry. However, he does not look at the road conditions in the ruins, and people fly out if they are not careful. Up.

"The murloc captive said that the roads on the island are well preserved and should be suitable for electric balance bikes. Unfortunately, we didn't buy them at the time."

Jiang Baimian smiled and suddenly said:

"Team Korea, you seem to talk more than before?"

Han Wangyu was taken aback, and laughed at himself:

"It may be because you have shown great strength and want to please you a little bit."

After talking for a few more words, Shang Jianyao and Bai Chen each pushed a bicycle to the speedboat, while Long Yuehong worked hard to carry the crate containing the exoskeleton device.

——In order to save electricity, he didn't wear it now.

Jiang Baimian jumped into the speedboat last, and waved to Han Wanghuo and the others in the sound of the engine.

Ten seconds later, the milky white yacht sailed into the raging lake with no end in sight, and dragged a long trace on the surface of the water with golden scales.

The wind on the lake was significantly colder, causing Long Yuehong to shrink.

He looked around and saw that there was only one line left on the shore, and the islands lurking in the depths of the lake like monsters.

"Group leader, why don't we come at night? It's in the daytime, and it's still in the afternoon, will it be too conspicuous? It's easy to be spotted by the murloc..." Long Yuehong asked if he didn't understand.

The similar actions he imagined are all selected at night when the night is dark and windy.

Jiang Baimian laughed and looked at Shang Jian Yao, who was squatting on the edge of the speedboat and wanted to reach out for fish:

"Explain to Xiaohong."

She paused, then added another word:

"Hey."

Shang Jianyao turned his head, wearing a dignified monkey mask, and asked Long Yuehong a question:

"Do you recognize the way?"

"Which way?" Long Yuehong didn't react for a moment.

"The way to Huxin Island." Bai Chen reminded.

"I don't know." Long Yuehong replied subconsciously, and then suddenly realized, "At night, we can't find that island at all?"

Jiang Baimian nodded while observing the "landmarks" given by Han Wangchou to determine if the route was wrong.

"Correct.

"During the day, we can use the map, description and comparison of the surrounding environment to follow the scheduled route to the island.

"At night, don't talk about us, they will not be able to find North if they come to Han Wang."

The lake area is where the murlocs have the absolute upper hand, and the residents of Hongshiji don't get involved deeply.

And this speedboat is very simple, there is no so-called intelligent navigation.

"Furthermore, if you are a murloc, when are you most vigilant?" Jiang Baimian continued, "It must be late at night. I am worried that the people at Redstone will take advantage of the dark to cover up their attacks, and they will relax a little during the day. Nuhu Lake is like this. Great, as long as we don’t go to the main area where the murlocs are active, there should be no danger in front of the island."

Long Yuehong listened carefully and summed up a sentence:

"Specific analysis of specific circumstances."

The speedboat went a long way to the west, and then gradually deepened into Nuhu Lake.

As time went by, the sun was no longer so clear.

After an unknown period of time, Shang saw Yao and they saw a big island.

In the center of the island is a mountain standing like a boundary monument.

"It's coming soon." Jiang Baimian compared the characteristic descriptions of the island in the heart of the lake given by Xia Hongshi, and determined that the goal was already in sight.

Bai Chen adjusted the speedboat's course slightly to make sure it didn't deviate in the slightest.

The wind in the lake rushed, making their hair fly and their clothes shaking.

Finally, they approached the island and found a pier that was a bit tattered. Not far from the pier, there was a gurgling river flowing.

At this moment, Shang Jianyao stood up, bent his back, and looked a little excited to the waters on the left.

He immediately spoke:

"Human consciousness, three."

"It seems to be a murloc." Jiang Baimian had already discovered it, but he couldn't judge whether it was a large fish for a while.

"What to do?" Long Yuehong felt tight at first, and then made a suggestion, "Hurry up and get on the shore?"

As long as he doesn't conflict with the murloc on the water, he is fearless.

"They are here, they are very fast." Jiang Baimian said calmly, "It seems that the fish people have not completely abandoned the island, and will send people over to check the situation from time to time."

At this time, Shang Jianyao assumed a front pose of jumping into the water.

Bai Chen drew a handful of "United 202" while manipulating the speedboat, trying to shoot into the water, but when the lake was shaking, she couldn't find where the murloc was.

Long Yuehong did the same, and even had a strange idea:

"I don't know how waterproof the exoskeleton device is..."

Jiang Baimian broadcasts the movement of the murlocs:

"They dived a bit deep, and they seemed to think of destroying the bottom of our ship."

She stepped on the wooden deck and said to Shang Jianyao, Long Yuehong, and Bai Chen:

"You leave the boat and don't touch anything except the wooden planks.

"There is no need to fight the murloc in the water, it's not worthwhile."

Shang Jian Yao sighed and retracted his body.

When several members of the "Old Tune Team" stepped on the wooden plank, Jiang Baimian squatted down and pressed his left hand to the surface of the lake.

In the next second, the side of the boat suddenly brightened, as if returning to the sunniest noon.

Countless silver-white electric snakes broke out and rushed down the lake.

This lasted for more than ten seconds, and several fish flipped their belly and floated up.

In more outer places, the three murlocs also approached the surface of the water, swimming frantically far away.

Their bodies were twitching uncontrollably, their eyes were very blank, and they didn't know what happened.

Jiang Baimian will accept it when he sees it, and no longer release high-voltage current.

She still had to leave part of her exploration of the temple.

Taking the opportunity of the murloc to stay away, Bai Chen drove the speedboat to the dock and tied it to a pile.

Jiang Baimian jumped off the speedboat and looked around. Just about to speak, he saw Shang Jian Yao jump out, rushed to the nearby river, and lifted up a stripped and rusty metal sign.

There are six big characters written on this card in gray:

"Electric fish is forbidden here!"

Jiang Baimian was stunned for an instant.

Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Long Yuehong and Bai Chen, who had taken off their masks, pressing their lips tightly, their body trembling slightly, as if it was very hard to endure a smile. As for Shang Jian Yao, wearing a mask, he couldn't tell whether he was smiling or not. laugh.

"The murloc is not a fish!" Jiang Baimian defended himself.

As soon as she finished speaking, she also laughed, and the pier was filled with joyful air.

This is a wonderful coincidence. UU reading www. uukanshu.com

After Bai Chen moved the two bicycles to the dock, and Long Yuehong put on the exoskeleton device with the help of Shang Jianyao, Jiang Baimian put away his smile and solemnly ordered:

"Xiaobai, Xiaohong, you stay here, one is to prevent the murlocs from coming back and destroying the speedboat, and the other is to be a reserve team.

"I don’t know what the situation is in the temple. What should I do if I go in together and the group is destroyed? You stay here, what really happened? We can still look forward to rescue and response. Well, pay attention to my flare. Also, if we overtime , You guys come and look for it immediately.

"If you eventually find that something is impossible, go back and notify the company."

This is a normal division of labor for a team, and the manpower remaining to respond is also one of the effective measures in similar explorations. Bai Chen has no objection.

Long Yuehong will naturally not object.

Jiang Baimian immediately carried the "Tyrant" grenade gun and "Berserker" assault rifle on his shoulders, helped the bicycle, turned over and sat on it.

Then, she subconsciously turned her head and glanced at Shang Jian Yao, and found that this guy was ready.

The only problem is that Shang Jianyao, who is wearing a gray camouflage, black leather boots, an assault rifle, and "ice moss" and "United 202" in his waist, does not match the behavior of "riding a bicycle". Inexplicably funny.

Thinking that he was the same, Jiang Baimian was amused for a while, and couldn't help saying:

"Armed to the teeth, ready to explore the unknown, we actually went there by bike... This feels weird."

Shang Jian Yao thought for a while and replied:

"At least not driving a tractor."

"...Also." Jiang Baimian imagined the scene and decided to accept the current conditions.

Then, the two of them hummed on the pedals and rode their bicycles in the direction of the temple.
