Chapter 497: Reconciliation and Giant Ship

~7 min read 1,215 words

Chatting with Gan Fall casually for a few sentences, and roughly grasping the situation on Sky Island,

Zhang Jie looked at the heavy-armored warriors behind him who did not look like Sky Island people:

"Who are these few?"

"Excellency, these few are the survivors of Shandora, warriors of the Shandians.

They want to come and admire the ruins of their ancestors, so I brought them together."

Gan Fall introduced.

"Shandian Wyper/Kamakiri/Braham have met Excellency Black Star!"

The Shandian warriors led by Wyper bowed and worshipped Zhang Jie.

Their eyes were full of gratitude and fanaticism: the wish that their ancestors had not completed for four hundred years,

was completed by this person in one day, how could this not make them shake?

"Stand up."

Zhang Jie spoke indifferently.

At the same time, he also remembered the origin of the Shandians: as Gan Fall said,

the Shandians are a tribe with a long history and strong combat power.

They were originally residents of the upper part of Jiayadao in the Blue Sea,

and were brought to the sky by the Knock-Up Stream 400 years ago along with part of the island.

The Jiayadao they lived on was regarded as a gift from God by Sky Island people who lacked soil, and they were driven out.

They became exiles of Sky Island and fought a 400-year home-land battle with Sky Island people.

"Is this the Light of Shandora?"

After visiting Zhang Jie, Wyper and the others stared blankly at the Tian Tian Jinzhong that revealed its true face, unable to recover for a long time.

"Who are you?"

At this time, Kuliket had recovered from the huge joy of having his four-hundred-year wish fulfilled,

and looked at the strange Wyper and the others, asking curiously.

"You, you are the descendant of Mr. Norland?"

Without waiting for Gan Fall to introduce, Wyper, who was awakened, looked at Kuliket excitedly.

It was Kuliket's turn to be confused: "How do you know my ancestor is Mont Blanc Norland?"

Wyper grabbed Kuliket's hand excitedly, muttering to himself:

"Like, you are too like the description of Mr. Norland passed down by the ancestors."

"Hehe."

Zhang Jie was eating melon and stealing smiles on the side.

Kuliket's height, gender, etc., were no different from ordinary people;

it was just that this diamond-shaped face was too recognizable, and what was quite coincidental was that,

this diamond-shaped face is the dominant, powerful gene inherited by the Mont Blanc family,

as long as they are males of the Mont Blanc family, they are all diamond-shaped faces after adulthood, and Mont Blanc Norland is naturally no exception.

"So it was because of my face."

Kuliket remembered Zhang Jie's title for him, "diamond-faced uncle",

and remembered the portraits of ancestors of past generations, regardless of height, fat, or thin, all having a diamond-shaped face, and suddenly realized.

"Great, the descendants of Mr. Norland have also come to Shandora."

Wyper at this time did not look like a great warrior, but instead pulled Kuliket and chattered endlessly like an old mother.

"Are you the descendants of the Shandorans?"

Kuliket also recognized the identity of Wyper and the others.

After all, Sky Island people don't know any Mr. Norland, let alone the facial features of their Mont Blanc family.

The reunion after four hundred years made Kuliket and Wyper have endless things to say, almost crying and hugging each other.

According to the conversation between the two of them, Zhang Jie also pieced together the details of the bond between Norland and the Shandorans 400 years ago.

About 400 years ago, Mont Blanc Norland, a kingdom explorer, drifted to Jiayadao to avoid a storm.

At that time, a terrible plague called "Tree Fever" was spreading on the island,

the indigenous Shandians on the island were helpless, and could only follow the instructions of the priest,

preparing to offer Mousse, the daughter of the great warrior Calgara, as a living sacrifice to the "God of Jiayadao",

a giant python, which was the ancestor of Sky Lord.

Norland, as an explorer and scientist, could not tolerate this ignorant superstitious killing behavior.

He took action to kill the giant snake, saved Mousse, and severely reprimanded the Shandians.

At the same time, in order to prove that he was not here to make trouble, and also to buy time,

Norland took the initiative to let his crew be hostages, swearing that he would definitely develop an antidote within the deadline.

In the process of searching for medicinal materials, Norland had multiple conflicts with the Shandian great warrior Calgara,

but they also gradually established a tacit understanding and became unspoken good friends.

Norland finally successfully developed an antidote, cured all the villagers including Calgara's daughter, and eliminated the plague.

In order to completely eradicate the source of the disease, Norland ordered the cutting down of all trees carrying pathogens.

However, he did not know that these trees were the "God Trees" worshipped by the Shandians.

This behavior angered the Shandians, and Calgara believed that Norland had desecrated the sacred land of his ancestors and ordered them to be expelled.

After Norland left, Calgara learned the truth from his clansman Seto:

Norland cut down the trees to save everyone's lives, and he unloaded all the gold on the ship as compensation,

just so that the villagers and crew would not have greed for gold again, causing disputes.

Calgara, who understood everything, was full of regret and chased to the seaside desperately.

Unfortunately, at this time Norland's ship had already set sail, and the two could only shout across the sea, resolving all misunderstandings.

Calgara promised to ring the Tian Tian Jinzhong of Shandora as a lighthouse to guide Norland's return;

Norland also swore that he would definitely come again.

After Norland returned to the country, he reported the existence of the "Golden City" to the king and requested to set sail again.

However, during the few years he was away, a part of Jiayadao, including Shandora,

was washed up to Sky Island by that unprecedented super Knock-Up Stream.

When Norland brought the king to Jiayadao again, the Golden City had disappeared.

Norland was therefore executed, bearing the infamy of "Big Liar" and "Big Talker",

and died without knowing that his best friend Calgara had been ringing the bell on Sky Island waiting for his return.

"I didn't expect Mr. Norland to bear the infamy of 400 years because of this."

Wyper learned of Norland's encounter from Kuliket, and was extremely sad and regretful.

"Now the Golden City has been found, and the Tian Tian Jinzhong has been rung,

the shame of the ancestors has been washed away, and that is enough."

Kuliket was very open-minded and did not complain about heaven or others.

While Kuliket and Wyper were pouring out their hearts,

Zhang Jie and Gan Fall were also discussing the future of Sky Island and the Shandians.

Zhang Jie asked: "How do you plan to arrange the Shandians?"

Gan Fall stroked his white beard: "The Shandians have lived on Sky Island for four hundred years,

although they have always had conflicts with Sky Island people, they have reconciled with Sky Island people in recent years,

I plan to treat them equally and incorporate them into the governance system of Sky Island." ===== CHAPTER 498 =====
