Lu Mingfei, who had read Dragon Clan before Dragon Slaying

Chapter 1083 Distress (Two in one, please subscribe!!!)

"Yes, the coordinates on the obelisk point to this city." Chu Tianjiao nodded, acknowledging Lu Mingfei's unfinished guess, "It is the city under our feet."

The third Nibelung.

This was the third pure white island that Chu Tianjiao and his group had landed on. On the altar, they saw a total of three towering obelisks, on which were recorded the appearance and specific coordinates of the three Nibelungs in the world.

So who is the owner of this "Island of Death"? How did he know the location of these Nibelungs? And why did he record them here?

There are too many strange mysteries, just like the thick fog between the islands, everyone feels shrouded in mystery.

"I silently memorized the coordinates on the obelisk. This island depicts a city in a rainstorm. Compared with the buildings described on the first two obelisks, this is probably the easiest Nibelungen for me to find." Chu Tianjiao said, "In fact, this Nibelungen is real. As you can see, Odin is the owner of this Nibelungen. I have been here for more than ten years before I found any trace of Odin."

What Chu Tianjiao didn't finish saying was that Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang had only been in Kassel Academy for two or three years, and they had already experienced so many Nibelungs, and might even have encountered enemies at the level of Dragon King. Chu Tianjiao had never seen such outstanding young people, and maybe one day in the future, there was hope that the dragon clan would really come to an end in their hands.

Lu Mingfei and the others did not notice Chu Tianjiao's smug look. Lu Mingfei, Nuo Nuo and Chu Zihang exchanged glances tacitly and thought in their hearts that the first altar Chu Tianjiao encountered had a bronze city engraved on it, which was Norton's Nibelungen. The second altar Chu Tianjiao encountered had a subway of the capital engraved on it, and the subway was Jörmungandr's Nibelungen. The third altar had this city, and Odin was entrenched in this city... Norton and Jörmungandr were both one of the four great kings. Was this indirect proof that Odin was also a dragon king?

The king of sky and wind? The king of sea and water?

Thinking of the eight-legged horse that spews thunder, Lu Mingfei is more inclined to believe that Odin is the former, which symbolizes the sky and wind.

"How many cable bridges did you see on that altar?" Nuonuo suddenly asked Chu Tianjiao.

Chu Tianjiao took a deep breath and his eyes twitched twice, as if some bad memories were just mentioned.

"One." After being silent for a while, Chu Tianjiao answered Nuonuo in a low voice.

"One?" Nono was stunned. "Only one? Is it the one you came here by? Does that mean that island is the end of the island? You should retreat to the previous island and choose the last rope bridge to reach the central island?"

"No, I only saw a cable bridge on the altar, but it was not the same one we came here." Chu Tianjiao shook his head and said.

"What do you mean?" Nuonuo was confused by Chu Tianjiao's words. "There is only one bridge on this island, but it's not the same one you came here? Then how did you get to this island?"

"This is the most bizarre part for me. I clearly remember the location of the bridge we came from, but when I looked over there, it disappeared, as if someone had cut off our escape route." Chu Tianjiao took a deep breath. "Fortunately, none of the crew members seemed to notice this weird situation. Before they noticed, I quickly led them down from the altar and headed straight for the only cable bridge I saw on the altar."

"Why didn't you tell everyone what you saw?" Shude Aki asked curiously.

"Those guys are already on the verge of extreme dissatisfaction. If we create panic for no reason now, the whole team will be scattered." Chu Tianjiao shook his head and said, "They trust Sasha, not me. If we were on the Yamal, I might have used force to intimidate them, but this is on the Island of Death. When they enter this unknown world, death is no longer a big threat to them. If we use force, it will only backfire, and the fragile trust will collapse in an instant."

Nuonuo opened her mouth and fell silent again, because she knew that Chu Tianjiao was right. When the lights and wine were on the "Yamal", Chu Tianjiao's violent methods might still be effective, but in a place like Nibelungen, no one would buy it. Those retired special forces soldiers had already tied their heads to their belts, and Chu Tianjiao couldn't tame them. If they were frightened at this time, these guys might completely lose control.

“This time when we walked onto the cable bridge, Sasha deliberately came to the front of the team and walked side by side with me.” Chu Tianjiao said, “I noticed Sasha’s wink at me, so he and I slightly quickened our pace, and the other crew members were left behind.”

"Sasha asked me a question." Chu Tianjiao paused, "He asked me if we couldn't get out."

"He noticed it too?" Nono said.

"Yes. Actually, on the altar, his eyesight was not enough to see through the fog and see the edge of the island, but he was very good at observing people's emotions. He felt that my mood had changed. Although everyone's expressions had been tense since entering this ghost place, I was obviously more helpless and anxious when I walked down the altar this time. Sasha guessed that I probably saw something not so good." Chu Tianjiao said, "Besides, before we left the island, we would vote on which rope bridge to take. Even if there was only one way, we would go around the island. But this time, I took everyone to the rope bridge after getting off the altar. I was in a hurry. This was too abnormal and it didn't fit my cautious personality at all."

"That guy named Sasha has a very accurate intuition." Caesar nodded and said in approval. "Not only is his intuition accurate, he is even more careful than others, even in a situation like this." Chu Tianjiao said, "Sasha is the only person I can trust in this team, so I told him about the disappearance of the rope bridge on the way here, and asked him not to tell others. Sasha didn't seem to be too surprised. He was silent for a long time, until the outline of the next island appeared in front of us, he asked me a question."

"Sasha asked me what the truth of this world is." Chu Tianjiao looked up at the ceiling.

Nuo Nuo's eyes twitched, Caesar frowned slightly, Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang lowered their heads, not knowing what they were thinking. Everyone in the room had a different expression.

The truth of this world... is such a huge and broad question, so big that one doesn't know where to start.

For ordinary people like Sasha, the truth of this world may be mixed races and dragons. Their pure-blooded humans are just the bottom of the food chain. Humans have never been the rulers of this world. The great dragons are... But is this really the truth of the world? Humans look at the world with their narrow eyes, and so do other species? The dragons can easily destroy a city and thousands of people, but even the powerful ancient black emperor has fallen.

What is the truth of this world? This question is so profound that when the questioner and the answerer are different, the answers will definitely be different.

How would Chu Tianjiao answer Sasha?

"I didn't answer Sasha's question at the moment, because I couldn't possibly mention the secret of the dragon race to ordinary humans. This is the iron law of the world of mixed-bloods. Although I trust Sasha, that's only in the current environment. Among a group of people like that, I think I trust him the most, but I've only known him for a few hours, and we were strangers a few hours ago." Chu Tianjiao said, "I was silent for a long time before I spoke. I said that the truth of the world might be hidden at our destination today. Instead of letting me answer this question, it's better to reveal it with your own eyes."

Chu Tianjiao's answer was actually quite wise. He threw back Sasha's question perfectly, because he couldn't give a standard answer. Instead of asking others, it would be better to verify it himself. Now is a good opportunity.

"Sasha smiled bitterly and said that he was not sure whether he would survive or not. He actually did not hold out much hope of getting out alive. I patted him on the shoulder and said that since he was here, he should not think too much. We Chinese have an old saying, 'Since we are here, we should make the best of it.'" Chu Tianjiao said, "Finally, I told Sasha that the island here is definitely not just white stones and ancient paintings. It is very likely that we will encounter strange creatures next, but don't be too scared, because no creature is invincible. If you can get out alive, treat your experience here as a nightmare and forget it when you wake up."

"I don't know if Sasha listened to me or not. He kept his head down and remained silent. Maybe he was thinking about what I meant by the bizarre creatures." Chu Tianjiao said, "After Sasha and I finished our conversation, the next island soon appeared in front of us. Unlike the three pure white stone islands we encountered before, this island was much larger and covered with lush vegetation."

Everyone's spirits were lifted. They all had considerable common sense about the wild. Usually, where there were plants, there would be other creatures.

"Have you ever seen grayish-white plants?" Chu Tianjiao suddenly asked the others in the room.

Everyone was stunned. Grayish-white plants... This color is quite rare in nature, but if you really want to look for it, you can definitely find a grayish-white variety. But since Chu Tianjiao asked this, it means that what he encountered is not that simple.

"Almost all the plants on that island are a strange grayish-white color. It's not a pure grayish-white color. I mean, those plants give people the feeling that they are on the verge of death. I can't feel their vitality at all." Chu Tianjiao said, "Except for a towering tree in the center of the island. That tree is normal green, but if you look closely, there is a hint of gray in the leaves, as if they are also beginning to be stained by the breath of death on the island. In short, this island gives people an ominous feeling. There are living things everywhere, but it is full of decay and death."

An island covered in vegetation but filled with the smell of death?

"I started to feel uneasy when I stepped onto the island. The crew members behind me also felt uneasy. They had been chattering non-stop, but now they are much quieter. The road we walked on is covered with thick mosses and ferns. This island feels like a primitive jungle, but the mosses and ferns are also a strange gray-white color." Chu Tianjiao said, "The soil is sticky and moist. When you step on those plants, they will slowly crawl back to their original state behind you, as if they are protesting against the invaders in this way."

"The plants above our heads are as tall as more than thirty miles, while the shortest ones are less than a person's height. Two crew members holding broad hunting knives are leading the way, cutting down bushes and weeds along the way. Our destination is the towering tree in the center of the island." Chu Tianjiao said, "I followed the crew members who led the way and collected several plants they had cut and put them in my jacket pocket. The quality of these plants is difficult to identify. They are a bit like the ancient plants that grow in primitive tropical jungles, but the climate on the island is not suitable for the growth of tropical plants. I don't know if it's my illusion, but I always feel like something is crawling on my body."

"When we went deeper into the island, a crew member exclaimed in amazement, and everyone looked over. It was a crew member who found an ant on the ground." Chu Tianjiao said, "Everyone else rolled their eyes and asked what was so strange about ants. The crew member said that this ant looked different, with a pair of huge pincers and strange eye color, and this was the first time we saw a moving creature on these islands. I always felt that there was something wrong with this sentence, but I didn't realize it for a moment. Just when I was distracted, he reached out and grabbed the ant."

"Damn it! I clearly warned them before we landed on the island that the creatures here were different from what they knew, but they didn't take my words seriously at all!" Chu Tianjiao said, "I shouted to stop him, but it was too late. The crew member let out a loud and painful scream, and the other crew members surrounded him, but I pushed them all away. I shouted loudly for everyone to stay away from him, and then quickly checked on the crew member's condition."

"He was bitten by that ant, at the base of his thumb. Rather than being bitten, it was more like being pinched by the ant's pincers. I saw his wound fester at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then it turned a strange grayish-white. It started as a dot and then quickly expanded into a surface. Under my gaze, his entire hand turned grayish-white." Chu Tianjiao's face didn't look good. "When the ant on his hand fell to the ground, I noticed that the ant did have a pair of pincers that were disproportionate to its body. The most important thing was that there were two golden dots where its eyes were!"

"Golden eyes?" Caesar's eyes widened. "A subspecies of dragon?"
