Demons Beside You (The Demons Beside Me)

"Are there a lot of treasures on Treasure Island?" This is what Chen Zhao is most concerned about.

If there were really countless treasures that would allow Chen Zhao to have food and drink for the rest of his life, Chen Zhao would be very willing to take the risk.

"I don't know if there are any gold and silver treasures on Treasure Island, but there is an immortal spring on the island."

To be honest, Chen Zhao doesn't really believe that there are immortal springs in this world.

Even great lords like Beelzebub Zoffei would wage war to extend their lives.

Can a human being really own an immortal spring?

If there really is an immortal spring, where is this pirate king now?

"I just drank the spring water of immortality, so I was cursed with immortality."

"The curse of immortality? Is this a curse?"

In some movies and TV shows, it is always said that immortality is a curse.

Chen Zhao feels that happiness should be greater than pain.

"The curse of immortality is that after I drink the spring water, my body begins to rot, and only dogs can free me."

"Then why don't you get free?"

"Don't be stupid. Even if this state is terrible, it is at least better than real death. I don't want to disappear completely."

"You said that the evil spirit that your pet dog transformed into was sealed?"

"Yes, that's the man who sealed my dog, and he also blessed me with magic and dispelled my curse."

"But after dispersing, you are still alive."

"Yes, I'm still alive. That person didn't expect that his magic would conflict with the curse, and I became a truly immortal skull."

"Is the person you are talking about the person who mailed you to me?"

"Yes."

"In other words, that person actually knows the location of Treasure Island?"

"I don't know, I was found by him, and then he used blessing magic on me, and then I lost consciousness. When I returned to human society, a hundred years have passed, and I found that the whole world had become strange. "

"a hundred years?"

"A hundred years ago, I was a very famous explorer. In the past, I was called the Great Hanks by the public."

"You have been on Treasure Island for such a long time. What dangers are there on Treasure Island?"

"Crazy and dangerous plants, big snakes guarding the ruins, blind eyes wandering on the seashore, upside-down palaces, and some kind of evil hidden underground."

"Tell me in detail."

"No matter how much the plants on Treasure Island are destroyed, they will grow back in a short time. I once tried to ignite the plants on the entire island, but I couldn't do it at all. I lit a large area, but the fire was very strong. It will soon extinguish itself, and then the burned plants will grow again within a few hours, and these plants will actively attack living creatures." Hanks said: "Then there is the big snake guarding the ruins, which is a super Orochi, you are definitely a monster snake that I have never seen before.”

"There are also blind eyes wandering on the seashore. It is said that they are the souls of the pirate king's crew. They wander on the coast every night, as if waiting for the pirate ship to arrive again, but whenever a ship arrives, they They will swarm and kill those who land. They are very aggressive and concealed at night, but they are extremely averse to light. You can drive them away as long as you hold a torch in your hand."

"And the upside-down palace, and what is some kind of evil hidden underground?"

"I have seen a palace hanging upside down in the sky on Treasure Island several times, but it quickly disappeared again."

"Are you sure it's not a mirage?"

"I am an explorer. Of course I know what a mirage is. I can tell you clearly that it is not a mirage, because every time an upside-down palace appears, there will always be some gravel or building stones falling in the sky, or... Construction leftovers," the immortal Hanks said seriously.

"As for the evil hidden underground, that man said it. It came to the island and found me. Originally, it wanted to go deep into Treasure Island, but halfway there, he suddenly stopped. He said that there is a terrible and evil existence hidden under the island. If you continue to go deeper, you will wake up that evil existence."

"Is that all you know?"

"In fact, although I have been on Treasure Island for decades, I have only been to the Immortal Spring. I dare not go deep into other parts of Treasure Island."

"In other words, you have never seen the so-called Pirate King's treasure?"

"never seen it."

Chen Zhao suddenly lost interest.

The only motivation that kept Chen Zhao going was the treasure.

The treasure is gone, so what else can be pursued?

The fountain of immortality?

What's the benefit of being like Hanks?

It's really better to just die.

But what interested Chen Zhao even more was that man.

First of all, he knows the location of Treasure Island, and secondly, he has a relationship with Finetti.

Furthermore, he is also a psychic.

At least he knows how to use blessing magic.

This person may be Finetti's team member.

He knew Chen Zhao originally, or he got information about himself from Finidi.

But what is his purpose in trying to trick him into going to Treasure Island?

Anyway, Chen Zhao always has an idea.

There are always unscrupulous people who want to harm me.

Chen Zhao never hesitates to speculate on people he doesn't know or is familiar with with the utmost malice.

Chen Zhao thought of the previous island again. There was a large amount of devil's gold stored in the cave on that island.

Moreover, those demonic golds are cursed and full of ominous atmosphere.

Some of them also lived in Los Angeles and were stored in a Citibank safe.

Suddenly, Chen Zhao thought of a question.

Who kept the cursed demonic gold in the bank?

Could he be the one who lured him to Treasure Island?

Chen Zhao didn't want to be led by the nose anymore.

So Chen Zhao decided not to go to Treasure Island this time.

If you can, show up in person.

Otherwise, I won’t go even to death.

Chen Zhao didn't like this feeling, the feeling of being kept in the dark about everything.

And behind this, there is another hand planning and controlling himself.

Come out if you can, and I will twist off his head and use it as a toilet.

"Does that person have any characteristics? For example, age, appearance, voice, height, etc."

"I remember, but how should I tell you."

That person led him to Treasure Island, and there were no more than two possibilities.

One is to harm yourself, so the most likely possibility is that this person is your enemy.

Another possibility is that he wanted to get something on Treasure Island, but he couldn't get it with his own abilities.

So you need to open the way for him yourself,

This possibility is also the greatest.

Maybe the other party on the previous island had the same purpose.
