Chapter 333

Watatsumi Island!

When stepping on this land again, Luo Li felt a little emotional.

Unlike Narukami Island, which tended to be suppressed in purple tones, this island had a different ethereal beauty.

Everywhere was clear water flowing, bubbles steaming in mid-air, mixed with light blue translucent jellyfish.

Amazingly, they did not live in the water, but jumped up and down in the air.

Everywhere one looked were huge rocks, and huge shells growing on the edge of the cliff.

If looking down from a high place, one would find that the whole island was like a hollow, with a circle of towering mountain rocks guarding the Sangonomiya palace in the center.

The cliffs across the air were connected by wooden suspension bridges for people to walk together.

And every side of the cliff flowed with small waterfalls until they gathered in the lake below.

Its water quality was clear "780" to the bottom, and the air was filled with a fresh and moist smell.

The breeze blew, and enjoying the beautiful scenery made people feel relaxed and happy.

Caught in the middle of a group of Resistance soldiers, Luo Li had no expression of being threatened, completely in a relaxed posture of being invited here for tourism.

Gorou behind him was made to look like a follower, not to mention how uncomfortable it was.

After being forced to bring him back on Seirai Island, the group had entered the territory of Watatsumi Island.

By the suspension bridge, it seemed to be to prevent people from getting lost, and pillars with lanterns were erected.

Located on the opposite side of the bridge, several Sangonomiya soldiers were guarding the suspension bridge, and such defense was fully three layers.

The first purpose was to review the people who came here. Due to the war with the Shogunate army, it had become exceptionally strict recently to prevent spies from infiltrating.

The second was that if there was a large army pressing on the border, they could cut the suspension bridge at the first time, cut off the passage, and let the enemy not be able to attack at all.

"General Gorou! You are back!"

Seeing Gorou, the guards by the suspension bridge hurriedly greeted him.

Because as a general, he was sincere, firm, and decisive, and could eat and sleep with his subordinates, so he was deeply loved.

"Hmm, Matsuda, nothing happened while I was away, right?"

"Everything is normal. By the way, Sangonomiya-sama summoned you for something, and ordered you to see her immediately after you return."

After hearing this, Gorou immediately agreed.

"Okay, wait until I send this... cough, guest to a safe place, and then I will go to see Sangonomiya-sama."

After verification, the group passed through three suspension bridges, and Luo Li also saw the villages on Watatsumi Island scattered everywhere.

The one closest to the outer edge of the island was a village named Bourou Village.

Passing by, one could see that the villagers were very welcoming to the Resistance, and occasionally sent various supplies.

Because of the war with the Shogunate army, both sides had long cut off most of the exchanges, including supplies and the like.

Although Watatsumi Island was rich in products, it only guaranteed daily needs, perhaps with a little leeway.

But war must have a large consumption of resources, and simply satisfying daily needs was not enough.

Soon, the group arrived at the place of Sangonomiya, decorated with huge corals and shells.

Following Gorou besides Luo Li were only two soldiers.

Coming to this beautiful palace complex again, it was almost unchanged compared to five hundred years ago.

"Pity, the old friends back then cannot be seen again."

Sighing, Luo Li heard Gorou's voice.

"Please don't leave the place of Sangonomiya at will, so as not to cause trouble."

His tone was not like treating a person captured as a threat, but rather with a tone of discussion.

"I know, don't worry."

After repeated instructions, Gorou entered Sangonomiya with an uneasy mood to seek an audience with the current Divine Priestess.

And Luo Li walked around under the guidance of two soldiers.

Rather than being monitored, the two soldiers were more like bodyguards.

Standing on the edge where huge corals and shells merged and looking down, Luo Li saw the lake finally gathering into a huge underground cavity.

From ancient times to the present, I don't know how much water it has gathered.

The huge vortex was frightening.

"Enkanomiya..."

Staring at the road leading to the underground world, Luo Li was thoughtful.

Buried below were materials about the pre-Archon War period in ancient times.

It's just that most of them had been destroyed, and the things that could be found were few and far between, which didn't interest him at all.

Compared to that, he only had one thought he wanted to figure out when he came here...

"Do you two know if any high-level officials have suddenly appeared in Sangonomiya recently?"

The two soldiers following behind didn't react for a while, until Luo Li turned around and stared at them, then they understood that he was asking them.

One of them shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.

From General Gorou, they learned that they must treat this guest cautiously, so they didn't pretend to be indifferent and act like they didn't hear.

The other was a little hesitant, thought for a moment and said: "High-level officials of Sangonomiya, besides General Gorou who leads the army, there are only a few people like Sangonomiya-sama, right?"

"There are several?"

Divine Priestess, Envoy...

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly stopped, feeling that this had already mentioned the core of Watatsumi Island.

Luo Li didn't care, looked at the two and didn't ask anymore, but instead toured the scenery of Sangonomiya.

Back then he was busy with various things, plus the impending destruction of Khaenri'ah, he didn't have much heart to enjoy the scenery, but now he could finally make up for it.

The two soldiers breathed a sigh of relief. If the other party asked to the end, they would really be in a dilemma.

This was inviting a master back.

And the reason why Luo Li didn't ask anymore was also because he could perceive that the close connection was in Sangonomiya.

The Honkai energy bestowed by it was connected along unknown lines of the void, emitting an aura of longing to fit with him, the source.

And that longing became more and more intense as time 3.8 passed, as if a child begging for the father's essence.

"So the baby who existed in the pearl back then was really born."

His gaze glanced unintentionally at the main hall of Sangonomiya, and he could clearly feel the dispersed Honkai energy jumping.

It's just that I don't know who the real body is. Anyone in the high-level of Sangonomiya is possible, except Gorou.

Legend has it that the Divine Priestess was born from a pearl, which could be called heaven-born and earth-raised, and would also become the highest-level Divine Priestess, possessing huge power.

If he could get on the line with that one, maybe he could completely resolve the dispute between Narukami Island and Watatsumi Island.

Thinking to this point, he decided to push it a little later.

It could also be considered the first gift for Ei.
