Kalifa and a few others came to the edge of the fog again. After thinking for ten minutes, they finally took the first step and entered the fog.
The remaining three surrounded Kalifa. They had met Ed before, and now who knew if they would meet someone else. They had to be careful.
Martin looked around and couldn't help but said,"Captain, do you think the fog seems to be much thicker?"
"Is it true?" Zhang Lie looked carefully and found that it was indeed true."It is true. I didn't notice it because it was dark. It is much thicker than before."
"Not only is it thicker than the fog just now, it's also thicker than when we came here."
Zhang Lie looked at Bruno and saw that he also nodded in agreement, so he gripped the hilt of the knife:
"Everyone, be alert. Since this fog is probably man-made, it probably won't be as smooth this time."
If you look down from a high altitude, you can see that the fog on the entire island is moving toward the periphery, as if the warships cruising outside caused this situation.
Kalifa kept walking, counting the number of steps and directions. The four of them walked around for ten minutes, but suddenly walked out of the fog.
Zhang Lie held Kalifa's shoulder:"Kalifa, are you sure you're not in the wrong place?"
Kalifa didn't open her eyes, but thought carefully and made sure there was nothing wrong:
"That's right. According to our current progress, we should have reached the place where we met Ed. We should be able to see the boat after turning a corner."
""Huh~" Zhang Lie exhaled, put down his hand and said:"Then you take a look."
Khalifa knew something was wrong, and opened her eyes decisively. Sure enough, there was no trace of fog in front of her, and a village was quietly nestled in the night.
Khalifa covered her forehead and asked doubtfully:"Is this the village from before?"
"It's that village. It's not the first time I smell some smells on the road." Martin immediately confirmed.
Zhang Lie also knew it well. He was now a rat fruit, and his sense of smell was no worse than Martin's:
"Yes, I can sense it too. If Kalifa is sure that there is nothing wrong, then it can only be because of the change in terrain and the fog.
The terrain will not be much different in such a short time, so it can only be fog.
The previous fog could affect the sense of smell and perception, and now the fog is thicker, it may even confuse the sense of direction."
Kalifa thought about it and felt that there was nothing wrong with her, so she looked at Zhang Lie:
"Captain, you decide."
"It's okay, let's try again. If it's still the same, then we have no choice but to face it this time."
The four people entered the fog again. Ten minutes later, they reappeared from another direction.
Martin sniffed the air a few times and nodded,"We're back again."
Zhang Lie simply said,"Since we can't solve the problem, let's solve the person who created the problem. Let's go meet the villager."
The village was silent, with only the footsteps of four people floating in the air. Martin walked in front, sniffing around from time to time, and finally stopped in front of a small house.
"Captain, that guy lives here, and he's the only one inside."
Zhang Lie touched his chin and said,"So he's a single guy, no wonder he dared to slip a note in. Let's go in and take a look."
Martin went forward and pushed the door, but it opened before he could push hard. He looked back and said,
"Not locking the door"
"It's okay, it seems they are waiting for us, let's go in."
Martin led the way with Ed and the other dog, looking at the villagers sleeping like dead pigs, everyone was speechless.
""Captain, are you sure it's waiting for us?"
Zhang Lie was also a little uncertain:"Well, maybe it can't hold on any longer."
Feeling a little embarrassed, he went up to shake him, but the other party showed no signs of waking up. He smacked his lips, turned over and fell asleep again.
Zhang Lie felt that there were several pairs of eyes staring at him from behind, and his back had an illusion of burning under the focus of their eyes. He immediately grabbed the guy's neck and lifted him up in the air. His face became red and congested under the clamp of his hands, and his body began to struggle, but even so he didn't wake up.
There was no other way, Zhang Lie could only put this guy back on the bed, watching him gasping for breath, and suddenly laughed:
"Just think of it as talking in a dream, what does the fake fog mean?"
The man actually spoke:"There is a demon ruling this island, and the island is full of illusions. The fog is the power of the demon." What
Zhang Lie is concerned about now is the reason why he took action:"What has this demon done before?"
"Everyone is bound and dictated what to do every day and every moment. It has been like this for 20 years. No freedom is allowed. Those who disobey are either killed or enslaved."
"Kill and enslave? For example?"
"For example, the receptionists were enslaved, and some people who resisted were killed."
"So what do you want?"
"I want freedom, I yearn for the sea, I yearn for a free world. The sea I saw when I was a child, the outside world I saw, are all gone now. I haven’t seen what the sea looks like for twenty years. I almost forgot that this is an island."
""Alas." Zhang Lie sighed, not knowing how to comment,"Then tell me about this demon."
Perhaps because he had been talking for a long time and didn't see any problems, he became bolder and finally sat up:
"That was twenty years ago, this demon..."
Just as he said this, there was a sudden sound of breaking air, and a wooden stick was inserted into the neck of the middle-aged man.
Zhang Lie turned his head and held the handle of the knife. The one who did it was Ed who was carried on Martin's shoulder, and the wooden stick was the handle of the lantern.
This was beyond everyone's expectations, and the target of the attack was not them, so no one reacted to block the sneak attack.
Martin threw Ed to the ground with his backhand. Zhang Lie looked back at the villagers. His eyes were wide open, his neck was pierced by the wooden stick, blood slid down the stick, and his body twitched occasionally. It was obvious that he was completely hopeless.
Zhang Lie looked at Ed:"Why did you do it? Do you think I dare not kill you?"
Ed's voice was cold, without any emotional fluctuations:
"Anyone who violates the rules will be killed!"
"What rules? Leaking news of that demon?"
"There is a rule that you must sleep at night. Ed gave a strange reason.
"Ha, ha..." Zhang Lie shook his head, thinking it was ridiculous,"Is it because of this? Do you think I'm a fool? Isn't it too much to control me even when I'm sleeping? Besides, if you didn't do anything before, let alone when I just woke up..."
"It's okay to be woken up by you, but sitting up on your own initiative is against the rules"
"Your criteria for judgment are outrageous. According to you, shouldn't we who are running around here be cut into pieces?"
"No need to chop him into pieces, just kill him." Ed answered very straightforwardly.
"Oh, just kill him, then come on." Zhang Lie didn't believe that this guy would come to seek death, not to mention that he was suppressed by Martin.
But as soon as he finished speaking, Martin suddenly let go, and Ed didn't hesitate at all, and rushed up again.
But this time Zhang Lie didn't hold back, and killed a villager in front of him, so he certainly couldn't let him go.
