Chapter 609: First Glimpse of the Island
4 PM 。Taking advantage of the fact that the sun hadn't set yet, Junzhi Mu decided to lead a part of his people to try and land first. 。
Beneath the sea in the Kin Island area, there are a lot of reefs. Their cruise ship suffered severe damage after a big storm, so they decided to anchor their ship 1000 meters away from the island. 。From the cruise ship to the island, they had to take a smaller boat. 。Unfortunately, the cruise ship's spare warehouse, which was stocked with lifeboats and rafts, suffered significant damage due to the storm. Not only were the emergency food supplies washed away by seawater, but a large portion of the lifeboats were also lost. Now, there are only three small boats left. 。
Each small boat can only carry 12 people. Although the cruise ship has been severely damaged, there is no danger of it sinking, so most people remain on board, ready to depart. 。
On the first attempt to land, Junzhimu decided to send only 12 people to investigate the situation. 。This includes Junzhi Mu himself, Raphael, Lao Gui and other elite troops. 。"...the shepherd, be careful" 。Pei Haoran patted his shoulder and said, 。The lord nodded to him. 。Pei Haoran still caught Lu Qinian, "...Just don't go and cause trouble." 。Just look at him, young Master Lu fidgeting. You can tell what he's up to. 。I'll take a look back at the past. 。Lu Qinan felt that he could also be considered an elite. 。Pei Haoran glared at him, "Does your left eye not hurt?" Just now he impulsively punched Rafael, and as a result, the other party retaliated with a blow of his own. 。These two clowns are impulsive and stubborn, they can't possibly beat the other side. 。<<
Zhu Xiaowei brought some soaked medical supplies, though they had been in seawater they were still usable, “...Your eyes are all bruised and swollen, if you don't treat them soon it might affect your vision >>>。Looking at Lu Qinan's black swollen left eye circle, it made my heart ache. Yet, this Master Lu was stubbornly refusing to acknowledge his injuries. 。Lu Qinan, of course, was in pain. He was in agony, wanting to scratch the walls, but Raphael didn't even flinch after being punched in the nose. Lu Qinan could only grit his teeth and bear it, afraid of being called a coward if he screamed. 。Fiercely glaring at Raphael who was talking with Junzhimu over there, his heart was filled with rage. He cursed out loud, "I don't know what kind of evil creature this is..." 。On the first landing, Junzhi Mu was very cautious. 。"...Young Master, maybe we should send more people over..." 。The crab felt uneasy seeing them depart in only a small boat. 。Most importantly, they don't trust Raphael, fearing he might play some tricks. 。The remaining two boats are on standby. If we don't return in two hours, send more reinforcements. 。"The Lord's voice quickly calmed," 。With a wave of his hand, he ordered the ships to sail towards the island. 。Lu Qinian and the crabs were filled with anxiety, holding high-powered binoculars, watching their small boat slowly approach the island. 。This lush island is teeming with vegetation. Even the broad leaves growing on its outer perimeter are large enough to envelop a whole person. Towering trees stand tall, their shadows dancing in the gentle breeze, creating a vibrant and verdant scene. 。They arrived on the island in just a few minutes. 。Old Ghost and his men immediately tied down their small boats to prevent them from disappearing, Now they only had three boats left. It was truly a challenge for these extravagant rich guys, If they had a flying ship now, they could directly circle the island and come to this desolate place where resources are scarce. 。The perimeter of the island was piled with many fine, pale gold sands. Before you, towering and lush green forests stretched out, thick with greenery and with the faint sounds of cicadas and birdsong - a truly secluded paradise. 。If it weren't for the palpable air of unease they carried with them, this truly would be a paradise. 。"The environment here is pretty good." 。"Lao Gui looked around, and instinctively felt that there was no danger nearby. " 。Besides Raphael, Junzhimu and Lao Gui also carried firearms. Their expressions were stern as they stepped onto the island, observing the trees, the soil's stickiness, and a small lake they discovered. 。。Lao Gui cautiously walked over, crouched down, and took a small sip. 。The lake water was cool and sweet. Lao Gui's face was filled with joy as he turned his head, "Freshwater" 。That's great, to find freshwater resources so quickly. 。
Before, a large amount of food on the cruise ship was washed away by seawater, and even their reserve of bottled mineral water was running low. They were worried about freshwater resources, and this happened to solve a big problem for them. 。Rafael stood aloft, a touch of impatience in his posture as he raised an eyebrow at them surveying the area around the island. 。To Raphael, strolling around this island was like a child playing, a waste of time. 。This island is mostly covered in black, sticky soil that is incredibly fertile. Because of this, the vegetation here is particularly lush. Some of the trees seem to have been growing for hundreds of years, their roots and branches intertwining to reveal the appearance of a primeval forest. 。A few small birds, no bigger than a hand, flew over the trees. 。There are also some small animals like squirrels that like to climb trees and build nests. The island's small animals seem unafraid of humans. 。
Their shepherd also found some fruits that looked edible. 。
On a slightly higher area of the slope, where vegetation was sparser and sunlight more abundant, vines grew a fruit that resembled watermelon. Its rind was black, and Lao Gui hesitated to pick it, fearing its toxicity. He used a thick wooden stick to strike it, and upon shattering the rind, revealed a juicy interior much like a watermelon. It emitted a fresh and sweet fragrance. Whether edible or not remained unknown. 。Old Ghost grabbed a bag and put one in it. He planned to go back and trick his brother into trying it as poison. 。The canned goods on board the cruise ship are barely enough for one meal. Now, food is extremely important to them; anything edible, even if it doesn't taste very good, can sustain their lives. 。There's also a kind of plant that likes to grow near water sources. It's a short plant, only about a meter tall, with strings of fruit. Some are bright red, while others are deep purple, very much like small tomatoes. 。Old Ghost also quickly picked a few strands to take back. 。
We had agreed with Lu Qinian and the others to return to the cruise ship within two hours. After all, it was our first time landing on this island, so it's better to be cautious. It seems that Lao Gui and the others have also let go of their nervousness and can't wait to continue exploring deeper into the island. They might even hunt down a few wild boars or something to add to our dinner. 。"Tomorrow, let the main force land together..." Lao Gui and the others were in high spirits. 。These people are practically indestructible, like cockroaches. They've been through a near-death experience with that terrible storm before, and they've already forgotten about it. Thinking about it, spending a few months wandering around this island doesn't sound so bad either. 。They returned to the seashore, placing the collected samples of fruit back on their boat. They waved goodbye to the people on the opposite cruise ship with smiles on their faces. 。On the cruise ship, Lu Qinian saw them appear safely and was instantly relieved. 。Judging by their expressions, this island shouldn't be that bad. 。Their small boat was only powered by human effort, using rafts. Old Ghost and his men volunteered to be laborers. 。"Is there anything like wild men on this island?" Kimura nozomi asked Raphael as they were about to leave the island. 。Raphael arched an eyebrow, deliberately vague. "Not yet," 。His voice was enchanting. 。Because this archipelago is made up of three main islands, surrounded by many large and small satellite islands, and this is just a humble outlying islet on the edge. 。
Each island is connected to the others, you never know if some wild man might have wandered over. 。Raphael smirked wickedly, he was genuinely looking forward to seeing the sorry state of these people, their troops decimated. 。Raphael kept things close to his chest, unwilling to reveal too much, and Junzhi Mu wasn't one for lengthy conversations either. He didn't press further. 。Two men sizing each other up. 。
