Chapter 62

No matter what, an update is necessary, and here is the first one.

Having gathered enough scallops for the day, Er Dongsheng began to walk cautiously towards the temporary camp! The bizarre paper figures had already launched their attacks, so he had to be vigilant at all times. Moreover...

It seemed that it was time to prepare for departure!

Er Dongsheng didn't want to stay in this place for a moment longer. Apart from the strange paper figures, there was always a feeling of being watched on this island! He didn't know why.

After a hasty meal, he put the remaining scallops into his basket and started working.

He planned to build a bamboo raft, a large one! He was preparing to set sail and look for a way out elsewhere. His injuries had healed, and just waiting here for death was not a solution!

Actually, building this thing was quite simple. There were plenty of ready-made materials on the island. The bamboo on the island was the best material for the frame, and the incredibly tough bamboo vines were better than ordinary vines as ropes.

The bamboo raft had to be large enough. Facing the dangerous and unknown waters, a large boat always gave people a sense of inexplicable security! A large raft was not only safer but could also store more food. Once at sea, it was uncertain whether they would encounter such a small island for resupply! Therefore, to store enough food, the raft had to be large enough!

Er Dongsheng decided to build a two-layer raft! He would lay some thick leaves between the two layers to prevent water from seeping in. He didn't want the cabin to be wet and damp while drifting at sea. The sides of the raft were surrounded by some bent small bamboo poles and bamboo vines, and the top was partially covered with thick grass and leaves! This design made the raft look like an enlarged version of a cloak boat, just a bit simpler and with a larger belly to hold more things!

With the design ready, it was time to take action!

Cutting bamboo, drying bamboo vines, and gathering food, he was busy for three or four days. During this time, he repelled several waves of attacking paper figures. Under the incessant harassment of those annoying paper figures, Er Dongsheng finally completed his bamboo raft!

"Just one more step left!" Looking at the bamboo raft in front of him, Er Dongsheng was satisfied, but his lips still twitched, and his face was full of black lines. No matter how you looked at it, this thing looked like a super-large bowl with a lid! It was completely different from the super cloak boat he had designed!

Imagination is beautiful, but reality is often very cruel!

But it's better than nothing!

"Final step, start the crazy food collection!"

...

Er Dongsheng wove many simple bamboo baskets to store food. The crazy collection began. In the morning, he ran around the forest, climbing up and down to pick all the edible fruits he could see. In the afternoon, he went to the swamp to dig for scallops. While digging for scallops, he also encountered many strange-looking fish. He tried a few bites, but they were so disgusting that he decided to stick with scallops as his main food. They were easy to catch and tasted good!

In the evening, at the camp, large pots of scallop meat were cooked and then scooped out and placed on rocks to dry naturally. Or, after cooking, they were placed on some fire-heated stone slabs to speed up the drying process!

Thus, preparing food, he was busy for another day or two. Every day, he carried his broken bamboo basket without putting it down, muttering to himself, mumbling something incomprehensible!

He also made a fishing rod to use when he was bored during the sea voyage. He prepared some dry firewood as well, just in case! To make soup or cook, he couldn't use the small fireball spell!

Catching fish, he could occasionally roast a whole fish, which was also quite nice!

"Then, the time is now, let's set off! The Er Dongsheng Sea Bowl!" Dragging the huge bamboo raft into the water, Er Dongsheng jumped into the boat and set off!

"My journey is in the starry sea!"

...

"Roar!"

"Stop it, Soul Siren, Milanca. According to our agreement, let them go!"

A black shadow slowly emerged from the northern waters of the island and slowly walked into the middle of the paper figures, seemingly completely ignoring the bizarre paper figures around him!

After a moment of silence, a hoarse and cold voice came from the paper figures.

"Letting him take the seed of destruction... destruction... should be completely destroyed..."

The black shadow seemed to understand.

"But that child is the offspring of the siren, our offspring. Can you really do it?"

"Besides, it's becoming active again. It seems to have sensed the seed of this generation. For the safety of the clan, that little demon can only be pitied!"

"That little demon... is that so... it's active again... just a hundred years!"

"Its power has accumulated enough. Perhaps it won't be long..."

"By the way, that little demon seems to have the aura of the old monster Thousand-Eyed Beast. And I always feel that there is something on that little demon that makes me tremble, something similar to it... many of my avatars have been destroyed..."

"The monster Thousand-Eyed Beast? Impossible, that guy has been missing for nearly a thousand years, perhaps he died in the last one..."

"As for the aura that makes you tremble, are you having problems again because of it recently?" The black shadow stroked his chin, thinking as he spoke.

"Perhaps... seems... sigh, when will the clan... legendary demon..."

The cold, hoarse voice suddenly fell silent, mixed with a hint of sadness.

"Legendary demon, have you already fallen so low as to consider yourself one of the demons!" The black shadow sighed softly, looking up at the sky, as if trying to see through the thick rock walls to gaze at the once beautiful homeland.

When will the tragic fate of our siren clan end! How long has it been...

Heaven, is your punishment not enough for us!

...

"Come out, Belle!"

Without turning his head, Er Dongsheng looked at the gradually receding island. From the broken bamboo basket, the little siren Mibelle fluttered her small wings and flew to Er Dongsheng's shoulder, still holding a piece of scallop meat in her mouth! Her little belly was full, and she flew unsteadily, but she didn't give up the food in her mouth.

Since the day Er Dongsheng fished her out of the water, this little thing had been hiding in his basket, never leaving! She had been communicating with Er Dongsheng through telepathy!

So that's why Er Dongsheng was muttering to himself...

Looking at the little siren on his shoulder, and feeling the疯狂跳动的墨灵火 in his heart, Er Dongsheng showed a mysterious smile.

Who outsmarted whom...

It's still uncertain!
