Chapter 322 Success
Whoos.h.!.+ Heath shot out like a sharp arrow, finally flying out of the cloud range before the Giant caught up.
Behind him, when the chasing Giant approached the edge of the cloud layer, a transparent barrier suddenly rose up from the surroundings of the cloud layer. The Giant that crashed into it let out a ‘bang’ sound and was blocked.
“Roar!”
The Giant hammered at the barrier with all his strength. One of his eyeb.a.l.l.s stared at Heath in front of him and let out an irrepressible roar.
Seeing that Heath was in the air, Heath finally let out a sigh of relief. He hurriedly cast a [Feather Falling Spell] on himself. Under the effect of the spell, his body slowly floated down from the sky like a goose feather. Bang! Bang! Bang! On the other side, the Giant was still pounding hard on the transparent barrier. However, that was the barrier that the Sea G.o.d had personally set up back then. It was already a product of the mastery of the rule system, and it was a whole dimension higher than Areos. It was impossible for Areos to break it with his current strength. “Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!”
Seeing that Heath was getting further and further away, Areos’ voice became desperate. At that moment, his eyes turned red and there were even tears in them, just like a child whose toy had been s.n.a.t.c.hed away.
At that moment, Heath seemed to have thought of something. He frowned and took out the box from his dimensional pocket. Then, he raised his hands above his head and threw the box towards the clouds.
Other than the Heart of the Sea, the rest of the box was only the belongings of the Giant, Areos. It was not of much value. It would be better to return it to Areos. After all, he seemed to care about the box.
This was a powerful life form that had lived for more than ten thousand years and was already at the level of an advanced-level Wizard.
Xiu–
The large box drew an arc in the air and then landed on the small island. The remaining things inside tumbled out and scattered everywhere.
The music box happened to touch the mechanism. The bearing in the middle automatically turned and played music. The past pictures that were like a silhouette also slowly pulled open the curtain.
Like a child returning to his mother’s embrace, the roaring Giant suddenly calmed down. He quickly ran over to pick up the music box and held it in his arms like a treasure. His eyes and gaze could no longer move away. Looking at the Giant, Heath suddenly remembered the illusion he had seen before. He could not help but sigh in his heart.
Through his lips, he knew the conversation between the Sea G.o.d Siren and Garcia. At that time, the Sea G.o.d was actually telling Garcia to throw away the child, and the child she was referring to was the Giant in front of him.
“We escaped! We escaped! We escaped!”
“Gehru succeeded, Gehru survived!”
“Gehru is the most powerful. Gehru defeated the Giant!”
“Ground, we’re coming!”
Amidst the cheers of the Gehrus, Heath slowly landed from the air.
“Phew!”
The moment his feet landed steadily on the ground, Heath could not help but let out a long sigh. It was not easy this time. It could even be described as a dangerous situation.
However, the gains were not to be underestimated.
There was no need to mention the Heart of the Sea. When he had escaped from the hands of the Giant, he had also fully experienced the power of a high-level demonized creature. This would definitely be of great help to his future strength.
At this moment, the ring on Heath’s hand suddenly shone with a l.u.s.ter.
At the same time, a ball of gray smoke surged out from within and quickly condensed into a human figure in the air. It was Nina.
“Phew! Finally, I can come out. I’m suffocated.”
Nina let out a sigh of relief and complained to Heath, “Heath, you annoying fellow. You’re really disgusting to keep me trapped inside and risk your life alone.”
As a spirit body, Nina could not use magic potions to hide her scent. In order to avoid disturbing the giant, Heath deliberately used a spell to seal the ring before he went up. The seal was only released automatically after he landed on the ground.
Heath said, “I’ve already told you that I have to consider safety.”
Nina snorted. “Hmph. Anyway, you’re leaving alone to take the risk!”
Heath rolled his eyes.
Nina continued, “Forget about this island. On the next island, you’re not allowed to be like this.”
Heath said, “It depends on the situation.”
Nina pouted. “Stop it. Alright, have you gotten the Heart of the Sea here? Which island should we go to next?”
Heath took out a map and looked at it. “The nearest island is Skeleton Island, right?”
Nina said excitedly, “Skeleton Island. I can tell that it’s an interesting place from the sound of it. That’s great. Let’s quickly set off!”
However, at this moment, the Gehrus people shouted.
“Skeleton Island! Oh my G.o.d, it’s Skeleton Island!”
“Really… Really going to that place?”
The Gehrus suddenly looked very scared. They even gathered together and trembled. One had to know that… Previously, they were able to attack the Earththorn Bear without fear of death, and they were able to face the Giant with him without changing their expressions. But now, they were afraid just because of a name.
Heath asked in puzzlement, “Why? Is there something scary there?”
The Gehrus immediately replied:
“That’s where the demons live. There’s death and terror everywhere.”
“The Gehrus who went there never came back alive…”
“The Gehrus can’t come back, nor can the powerful sharks. Only the more powerful whales can come back, but they are also full of injuries.”
From the description of the Gehrus, Skeleton Island seemed to be much more dangerous than Forest Island. The sharks mentioned by the Gehrus referred to the sea demonized creatures at the bottom of the sea, which was usually at least at the Wizard level, and the whale demonized creatures were at least at the level of intermediate Wizards.
Even the shark demonized creatures couldn’t return to the place. Just from this point alone, one could see how dangerous the island was.
“That kind of place… It’s better not to go…”
“It’s too dangerous, too dangerous.”
The Gehrus quickly tried to persuade him, hoping that Heath would not go to Skeleton Island.
Heath thought for a moment.
He had already obtained two Hearts of the Sea, and only one was left. There were still a few years before the end of the Deep Sea Feast, so there was no need to rush.
This Forest Island was very rich in elemental energy and resources. His strength had already reached the late stage of the beginner Wizard realm, and he was only one step away from becoming an intermediate-rank Wizard. He might as well train here for a while, until he broke through to become an intermediate-rank Wizard.
With this thought, Heath quickly made a decision.
He asked, “Is there any suitable cave or…”
