Chapter 652 What is on the Island?
Soon, Gu Fan, Su Hui, Ouyang Jin, Lu Yi, Jie, Xu Haowen, and another sailor climbed aboard another small boat, and set sail for the island.
"Brother, be careful." Gu Ling expressed her concern, while Gu Fan assured her that he would be cautious.
Seeing Gu Fan and the others sail far away, everyone was filled with a heavy sense of dread, wondering what kind of trouble they might encounter.
Some sailors felt relieved they weren’t chosen to accompany Gu Fan and the others onto the island. Frankly speaking, they had developed a fear of landing on islands in recent times, since they were either confronted by pirates or primitive inhabitants.
However, Lin Xi said emotionlessly, "You’re celebrating too early. Who said staying on the ship is safe? Why else would I be left behind?"
Hearing this, the sailors felt a weight in their hearts, sensing something ominous was on the horizon.
At this point, the captain approached them, his expression serious. "There are some things I haven’t asked about before, but now that we’re all in the same boat, you shouldn’t purposely hide things from us. You guys aren’t normal people, right? You specifically came for this island."
Lin Xi nodded in response, "Yes, I am indeed different from most. I know some magic, which you’ve probably seen, otherwise how could I have fought those Wandering Sea Ghosts? However, Gu Fan and Lu Yi are ordinary people. As for Su Hui, you all know her profession, so it’s not surprising that she’s quite skilled. Both Xu Haowen and Qin Jia are archeologists. I don’t think I need to explain any further."
On hearing this, one of the sailors asked, "Archeologists? Then what exactly are you trying to find on this island? Is there some kind of treasure there?"
