Infinity through different life

Chapter 31
While Xu Jing was eating a squid feast, Conrad and his party who were advancing along the river discovered the indigenous tribes built on the banks of the river.

After a tense confrontation, World War II Air Force veteran Mark Hank rushed out in time to prevent the conflict between the two sides.

"I still don't believe they said that someone came. In 28 years and 11 months, 8 attempts to return to the outside world failed, but it turned out that you came to me?"

Hank laughed so hard that he almost burst into tears. He was even more excited than Conrad and others, and talked about his experiences and his desire to return to the outside world.

In the past 29 years, the once young and handsome man has turned into a scruffy old man with white beard and hair.

"You may have noticed that there are many strange things on this island. As long as we stay in the tribe of this group of people, nothing will happen."

Hank led the crowd through the low wall and entered the tribe. The first thing they saw was a defensive wall that was built entirely of giant trees and spanned the river with a height of tens of meters.

Weaver asked, "Is this wall to stop the monster?"

"No." Although Weaver didn't specify what kind of monster it was, Hank knew it well, shook his head and said, "It's not what they blocked."

Everyone thought they heard it wrong, but Hank didn't explain much. Instead, he led them along the way and explained the living habits of these indigenous people and what he knew.

There are no criminals, no private property, and some people don't even grow old, all of which sounds unbelievable.

After looking at each other for a while with what appeared to be two indigenous leaders, Hank turned to everyone and said, "Good news, they said you can live here."

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, looking at the peaceful aborigines around them, feeling a little weird.

"But I didn't hear them." Conrad approached Hank and asked.

Hank explained: "They don't talk much, and they never smile, as long as you stay here long enough like me, you will understand."

"Wait a minute!" Nieves stopped Hank, feeling a little out of control: "We can't stay, we have to leave this island, we have to go back to live..."

Seeing that the situation was wrong, Conrad interrupted Nieves and said, "Calm down, Nieves, the timing is wrong, okay?"

Nieves stopped, and at this moment Hank said in a deep voice, "If you set foot here, don't even think about going back."

The atmosphere was a bit dull for a while, but maybe it was because he had been holding back for too long, Hank soon became talkative again, and led everyone to the wreckage of a large ship.

"This ship washed ashore ten years earlier than me. Now it has become their holy place, so those who don't want to lose their hands, don't touch it."

Everyone followed him and walked in cautiously. There were torches lit on both sides of the path, and the aborigines were stationed along the road like sculptures, looking extraordinarily solemn and solemn.

Entering the innermost part, after passing through a door, they came to a wide hall.

There are countless rectangular stone tablets on both sides of the hall. The pictures of the indigenous people fighting various monsters are depicted on the tablets, recording the past history.

"According to them, for thousands of years, people on this island lived in fear and under the shadow of various monsters, but one day, the strangest thing happened, some of the monsters they were afraid of, Start protecting them from being eaten by other monsters, but nothing is eternal..."

Hank first pointed to the picture of a giant orangutan kneeling in front of the corpses of the other two orangutans, then pointed to the picture in the center of the front and said, "They regard it as the last savior here."

Seeing this picture, Conrad and the others were stunned. The picture on it was the terrifying orangutan monster that beat them to pieces before.

"His name is King Kong, and he is the overlord here. These people worship him as a god. King Kong is a good overlord, and he is used to being alone."

"This is its home, we are just guests, but who will drop bombs in other people's homes, unless you want to start a war!"

Under Hank's explanation, everyone finally realized and understood all the reasons, but they still had some doubts.

They heard Hank say before that besides him, another Japanese also came to the island during World War II, and they killed each other...

But now there was only Hank left, and Weaver immediately asked, "Didn't King Kong kill your friend?"

"No." Hank looked sad, turned and pointed to another picture not far away: "That kind of monster killed King Kong is the god of this island, but there are demons under us."

"What's it called?" Conrad asked.

Hank said in a low voice: "The Ewes won't name them, but I call them skeleton reptiles. They are large lizards, very ferocious, and come from the cracks deep in the ground. They are extremely cunning and cruel. The bombs are sure to wake up the little ones."

"If it weren't for the existence of King Kong, you wouldn't be able to live now. King Kong will deal with them, but the biggest one should not come out, because the Ewe tribe said that only when King Kong is gone, the big demon will appear. Then It's time for catastrophe, so you better hope King Kong is okay."

"Listen." Conrad said at this time: "A fuel supply team will arrive on the north shore of this island in three days."

Weaver also said: "You should leave with us."

"To the north of the island?" Hank suddenly smiled, "Within three days?"

"Yes!" Conrad also laughed, but Hank patted his face lightly, as if trying to wake him up.

"It's impossible to reach the north of the island in three days! Give up! Don't dream!" Hank turned and left, but after walking a few steps, he seemed to suddenly think of something, turned his head with bright eyes, and said, "At least walking is not enough. possible."

……

After Xu Jing ate the swamp giant squid seal, he found the entrance to a crack that led deep into the ground nearby.

This is a dark hole with white smoke coming out, about ten meters in diameter. At a glance, you can't see the bottom, giving people a deep and terrifying feeling.

On the ground not far from the entrance of the cave, there were two corpses of skeleton reptiles lying on the side.

Xu Jing was a little troubled. The two tasks issued by the system seemed simple, but they were not that easy to complete.

The first task was to kill all the skeleton reptiles, but now he was not sure how many of them ran outside except the two he caught and killed on the spot.

And the second task was even more difficult to complete. Although the crack leading to the ground was not big, it was too deep, and Xu Jing didn't even know how far to solve the hidden danger.
