However, there are only two ways to leave this small island surrounded by storms and waves.

One is to find a new heir, complete the coronation ceremony, and release Himiko who was trapped in a decayed body, so that she can be reborn again and eliminate the storm.

This is the method Matthias has chosen for decades.

The other is to completely eliminate Himiko, and let the storms and waves around the island disappear with the death of the user!

And this will be the method Lu Qi chooses.

Accompanied by the bonfire and the chirping of insects, Samantha's story about "Sun Queen Himiko" has finally come to an end:

"...In this way, Yamatai disappeared into history..."

"It's a very wonderful story, especially under your description, it's fascinating, it's almost as if you have experienced it yourself. By the way, where did you hear this story?"

"This is a story that has been handed down in my grandma's family. I have grown up listening to it since I was a child..."

Hearing Samantha's answer, Matthias couldn't help but startled a little, and then showed a meaningful smile:

"I see..."

Chapter 264 Don't Pretend, I Have a Showdown, I'm a Bad Guy!

The change in Matthias' expression did not escape Lu Qi's eyes.

From the moment he met Matthias, he put 50.00% of his attention on him.

The remaining half of his attention was on the surrounding woods.

The reason is very simple. As the leader of "Solari" and the ruler of the island, Matthias couldn't just wander around alone like this, and he would definitely bring a large number of subordinates with him.

And his guess was not wrong.

Just now, while Laura was dozing off and Matthias was attracted by the story, Lu Qi turned on Eagle Vision

Under the eagle's eye, Lu Qi really detected the traces of the enemy. Six armed enemies with red light all over their bodies were lurking in the surrounding grass and woods, as if they were waiting for an order from Matthias.

Moreover, judging from the opponent's position, there should be an unknown number of enemies outside Hawkeye's detection range.

Reminiscent of the fact that Matthias "kindly" notified the direction just now and tried to call other crew members over, Lu Qi easily saw through Matthias's careful thinking.

Obviously, he intends to gather everyone on the Endurance first, and then wipe them all out!

The current situation is very unfavorable to Lu Qi's side.

Both Samantha and Laura were deceived by Matthias' performance, simply thinking that this bald man with a cane was just a friendly teacher.

Therefore, before the opponent makes the next move, Lu Qi can't act rashly.

However, if Reyes and the others arrive, there will be even more means that the opponent can use.

Randomly taking any crew member as a hostage and forcing them to surrender would be detrimental to everyone.

After thinking about it, Lu Qi felt that the only way to break the current deadlock was to expose Matthias' lies and let him reveal his true colors before the other crew members arrived!

Only in that way can he let Samantha know that Matthias is not a good person, so he can do it justifiably...

Glancing at Laura who was sitting aside, she folded her hands around her legs, buried her head between her knees, and seemed to have fallen asleep.

Lu Qi knew that next, he could only rely on himself.

His eyes swept across Matthias' crutches, and Lu Qi suddenly asked:

"By the way, Matthias, how did you hurt your leg?"

Lu Qi's sudden question stunned Matthias, who was thinking about what to do.

However, he quickly reacted, looked down at his bandaged right leg, and said immediately:

"Oh, you said this..."

In fact, his right leg was not injured.

Pretending to be hurt was just a way for him to win Samantha's trust.

After all, a friendly and injured person is easier to let one's guard down than a friendly but intact unknown man...

With his brain running wildly, Matthias quickly found an excuse:

"Actually, I just accidentally stepped on the slippery stone steps, fell, and just cut a hole. It's nothing serious, I have already treated the wound."

Matthias thought that if he said that, the other party would let him go.However, he never expected that the other party would be so "enthusiastic"

"Really? But why is there blood on the bandage, is the wound open again?"

Hearing this, Matthias frowned, looked down at the blood on the bandage, and cursed inwardly:

Damn it!Why is this kid so difficult...

The bloody cloth strip tied around his right leg did not belong to him.

Just before meeting Samantha, he and his men encountered a crew member of the Endurance.

Naturally, he was not so polite to the guy who was alone, and directly arrested him and tortured him.

Knowing about the Perseverance from the half-beaten crew, Matthias had a plan in mind, thinking of showing the enemy his weakness and defrauding his trust.

So, he tore off a strip of cloth from the opponent's body, stained it with the blood from the crew's mouth, and tied it to his leg.

To look realistic, he also got a cane and a suit jacket.

The purpose of going through such a lot of trouble is to deceive the trust of the survivors of the Endurance, so as to achieve the goal of killing them all.

However, what he never expected was that his cleverness was mistaken by his cleverness, and Lu Qi discovered the clues of the bloodstains.

In fact, the reason why Lu Qi was so sure that Matthias was not injured was because of the effect of Hawkeye.

The reason is very simple. Under the eagle eye vision, Matthias was glowing red all over, only the blood on the bandage on his right leg was blue!

Since it wasn't Matthias' blood, but the blood of his companions, if you think about it carefully, you can know that Matthias is lying!

He wasn't hurt at all!

Faced with Lu Qi's concern, Matthias was obviously a little caught off guard, so he had to follow the other party's words and continued:

"Uh...maybe, I didn't even notice..."

"I have served in the army and know some battlefield medical care. Let me help you look at the wound!"

Before Matthias could refuse, Lu Qi stood up abruptly and walked towards him.

Seeing this, Matthias frowned, and quickly waved his hands:

"It's really not necessary, I can deal with it later..."

"It's okay, you helped Samantha, you are our friend, it's not a big deal if I help you look at the wound..."

Seeing Matthias' crazy refusal, Samantha, who was sitting aside, didn't notice the clues at all, and chimed in very simply:

"Yes, it's not good if the wound is infected and inflamed, let Lu Qi take a look, you're welcome..."

Seeing that Lu Qi was about to realize that he had nothing to do with him, Matthias's expression sank, and he simply turned his attention, stood up, took out a pistol from his back waist, and fired into the sky!

boom!

This shot startled the night birds in the forest, made Samantha shrink back, and woke up the sleeping Laura.

As soon as he opened his eyes, what caught his eyes was the scene of Matthias pointing his gun at Lu Qi!

"What happened?!"

Samantha on the side was also full of surprise and doubt, and couldn't help asking:

"Matthias, what are you doing?"

Lu Qi, who was pointed at by the gun, had no fear in his eyes. He just stared at Matthias coldly, and said in a deep voice:

"Isn't that clear enough?! He wasn't injured, he wasn't a teacher, and he wasn't our friend..."

Xiang Lu Qi gave a sinister smile, and the pride and ferocity on Matthias's face could not be concealed:

"Hmph, brat, you're smart. But now..."

As soon as the voice fell, a number of armed men armed with various weapons suddenly appeared from the surrounding woods and grass, and surrounded them!

"Let me decide!"

I originally planned to get along with you as a good person, but what I got in exchange was suspicion.

Stop pretending, I have a showdown, I, Matthias, am a bad guy!

Chapter 265

The bonfire in the center is still burning fiercely.

The dim light of the fire reflected on Matthias' sinister face, making him look extraordinarily evil.

Looking at Lu Qi who was still calm, Matthias suddenly asked:

"Boy, I'm curious, how did you tell? I think my acting skills are pretty good..."

"I'm just more cautious when it comes to trusting others..."

Lu Qi's calm answer made Matthias take a high look at him, and nodded involuntarily, like a teacher, praising the students with excellent grades:

"Yes, I appreciate your caution. However, your approach is a bit reckless..."

While speaking, Matthias opened his arms and showed his strength to the three of Lu Qi, with a flamboyant tone:

"Originally, if you were obedient and obedient, this kind of scene would not have happened..."

Hearing this, Lu Qi glanced at the enemies around him, and the corner of his mouth curled up coldly:

"At least I lifted your false mask and let your true face be revealed, didn't I?"

At this time, Samantha, who was deceived, asked the doubts in her heart:

"who are you?!"

Hearing this, Matthias abandoned Lu Qi, turned his head to look at Samantha, his eyes were resolute with a hint of madness:

"As I said just now, my name is Matthias, and I am a teacher. However, what I spread is not knowledge, but the will of Sun Queen Himiko!"

"We are the subjects of the Queen of the Sun, Solari!"

Listening to the other party's self-introduction like xie teaching, apart from Lu Qi, who already knew it, Samantha and Laura on the side showed surprised expressions in unison.

Queen of the Sun?Himiko?Solari?

In her mind, recalling the sun logo she saw in caves and bunkers, Laura couldn't help asking:

"Those sun symbols painted everywhere were drawn by you? Could it be that this is the legendary Yamatai Kingdom?!"

"That's right, the land you are standing on is exactly Yamatai! The land of the sun queen's light!"

Hearing this, a flash of understanding flashed in Laura's eyes.

Laura thought that if she found the legendary lost kingdom, she would be very excited and excited.However, at this moment, she couldn't be happier.

Perhaps it was because he and his companions were being surrounded by a group of cultists who claimed to be the people of the Sun Queen...

"Originally, many people, even myself, were extremely skeptical that they could find her. But in the end, the great Himiko brought the key for herself and us!"

Speaking words of unknown meaning, Matthias suddenly reached out and grabbed Samantha's arm, pulling her up from the ground.

Under the pain, Samantha couldn't help shouting:

"what!"

"Samantha!"

Seeing this, Laura's heart tightened, and she wanted to rush to Matthias to rescue her best friend from that evil bald man.

However, just as she took half a step, a bearded man standing in the encirclement raised his pistol and pointed it at Laura:

"Don't move! If you don't want to die!"

As soon as the words fell, the rest of the enemies aimed their weapons at Lu Qi and Laura in unison.

Seeing this, Lu Qi took half a step forward, reached out his hand to stop the impulsive Laura, and protected her behind him.

After shaking his head to Laura to calm her down, Lu Qi immediately looked at Matthias and said in a deep voice:

"Matthias, what do you want?"
