Chapter 2258: The
The Doom Ship stopped steadily on the sea surface. In this windless sea area, there was no need to drop the anchor, and no pirate ship would come to the nearby sea area.
The Ancient God chose an isolated island a few miles away because of the climate in the nearby sea area. Ordinary ships would turn the rudder immediately after reaching the nearby sea area. In this world without diesel engines, the sea area without wind was a forbidden zone.
Su Xiao sat cross-legged on the deck and meditated. He was waiting for dawn. It was already 3:00 AM, and in another 3 to 4 hours, he could consider landing on the island.
Time passed a bit slowly while waiting. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang was so bored that it rolled on the deck. Fortunately, it was only for a few hours. Su Xiao ended a meditation, and the sky gradually brightened.
The Doom Ship was dragged by Amu to sail, approaching the isolated island a few miles away. When there was about 1 nautical mile left from the isolated island, Su Xiao dropped the anchor of the Doom Ship and let Benny stay alone to watch the ship.
Crack crack crack~
Cold air drifted on the sea surface. Amu and Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang each took an ice paddle and slid forward.
Ten minutes later, the ice surface used as a small boat melted on the beach, and the sky had already brightened. The dark clouds covering the isolated island made this island look very gloomy.
Su Xiao walked at the forefront, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang followed behind him, and Bahar landed on Amu's shoulder, bringing up the rear with Amu.
Just after passing through the beach area, strange insect chirps entered Su Xiao's ears. A damp and cool sensation appeared on his face. He wiped the water droplets on his face and looked at the sky. It was going to rain.
The air was cool. Su Xiao walked in the mangrove forest. The ground under his feet was a bit soft. This was a swamp area, and if he wasn't careful, he might step into the mud.
The area occupied by the mangrove forest wasn't large. After walking for about half a kilometer, the air began to be damp, and the smell of decaying vegetation drifted into his nasal cavity.
Su Xiao, who was walking, stopped. An aura appeared ahead. It wasn't the aura of a living person. This feeling... was like the remnant of some kind of intention.
Su Xiao walked out of the mangrove forest, and a shallow water area appeared in front. The scene matched the scene he saw before. After passing through this shallow water area, there was an abandoned hall, and the Ancient God was in that hall.
"Ah~ someone found this place again."
A hollow voice appeared. Following the source of the sound, Su Xiao saw a small wooden boat parked on the shore, and a figure in a tattered black robe sat at the bow.
"Get on the boat. This is all I can do."
The black-robed figure stood up slowly. He came to the stern of the boat. While bending down, one hand reached toward the water surface. A withered bone arm remained in the sleeve and submerged into the water.
A pale long stick was pulled out from the mud in the silt. It looked like stone, and also like bone.
The black-robed figure stood at the stern without saying a word. Under the hood with multiple holes, a skull could be vaguely seen.
This wasn't a living person, nor a follower of the Ancient God. He was a loser who could only be unwilling to fail, so he guided everyone who arrived here.
The black-robed figure's obsession was so strong that even the Ancient God on the isolated island couldn't detect his existence. He didn't have a noble background, just a farmer. Both of his loved ones were taken away by the Ancient God. He was too sad, so sad that his soul and bones resonated. His skin, flesh, blood, and internal organs were stripped away. The anger in his heart didn't let him fall.
He didn't have legends praised by the world, no great achievements. He put on a black robe, not wanting his appearance to scare others, and then silently found the Ancient God who killed his wife and daughter, and failed calmly.
After that, he even forgot the smiles of his wife and daughter, and his own name. From then on, he had nothing. No, that wasn't accurate. He still had a small wooden boat and could guide everyone who arrived here.
Su Xiao looked at the black-robed figure for a moment, then came to the shore, leaped onto the small wooden boat, and Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang and Amu followed closely.
The black-robed figure stabbed the long rod into the silt at the bottom of the water, and the small wooden boat drifted forward. He didn't tell the story of his past. It was too sad, so... he forgot.
Judging from his appearance, the black-robed figure was quite similar to the Grim Reaper. As long as he held a scythe, someone would definitely believe he was the Grim Reaper.
Amidst the splashing water, the small wooden boat arrived at the other end of the shallow water area. After stopping, the black-robed figure sat at the stern.
"May you, return alive."
"..."
Su Xiao didn't speak. He looked around at the scene ahead. This was a withered mangrove forest. The ground was full of black withered leaves, and all things withered. This scene matched the scene he saw before again.
Leaping off the boat, Su Xiao walked toward the withered wood forest ahead. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang followed behind him sneakily. The scene around made this guy recall some bad memories.
In the Wizard World, when Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang was scouting the terrain of Heru City, it accidentally entered the Mist Graveyard and encountered a group of ghosts, which scared it so much that it almost peed itself and fled.
The atmosphere of this withered wood forest at this time was somewhat similar to the Mist Graveyard, and thin mist shrouded the withered trees.
Raindrops fell from above. Su Xiao just walked into the withered wood forest when an aura locked onto him. The Ancient God living here had discovered him.
Noticing this situation, Su Xiao quickened his pace. After walking for about half a kilometer, an abandoned hall appeared ahead. Under the shroud of thin mist, it was gloomy and cold.
This ghostly place, used for horror movies... no, no one dared to come here to film horror movies at all. After all, the evil ghosts in horror movies were simply too sweet compared to Ancient Gods.
Su Xiao came to the gate of the main hall and pressed one hand on the hilt of his blade.
A few slash marks flashed, and the two doors nearly five meters high in front shattered. The moment the doors shattered, a pitch-black beam of light blasted out from inside, so fast that there was no chance to dodge.
A crystal layer climbed onto Su Xiao's left hand, and Green Steel Shadow energy surged on his hand, grabbing toward the incoming black beam of light.
Crackle...
Pale blue electric arcs flashed, and the black beam of light was rapidly devoured. A few seconds later, it dissipated.
Su Xiao clenched his left hand into a fist, and the crystal layer on his palm and forearm shattered. He stepped into the hall ahead.
This place was about a thousand square meters in size. The stone slabs on the ground were pitted and bumpy by the years. On both sides of the hall, there was a row of black stone statues. Each stone statue was lifelike, or rather, these weren't stone statues at all, but people who had once resisted the Ancient God.
Just after entering the hall, Su Xiao saw the stone throne at the innermost side. Darkness shrouded the surroundings, and only a figure could be vaguely seen on it.
The Ancient God on the throne leaned forward slightly, clearly looking down at Su Xiao.
Obviously, this Ancient God was the type who was ruthless and didn't talk much. Ancient Gods were ugly, but none were weak, and one was tougher than the other.
Su Xiao didn't speak. If this wasn't an Ancient God who liked to cause trouble, he wouldn't come to find the other party. The time and gain were disproportionate.
Ancient God + inciting followers + trying to make this world dark and sunless, adding these factors together, it was basically an evil god, and 【God's Judgment】 could grow by killing evil gods. ===== CHAPTER 2259 =====
