C274 " "Home!"

These Nicky people brought us some of their own food to thank me for "breaking the curse." To tell the truth, I didn't even know what it was made of until the very end. It felt like some kind of simple bread made of some kind of plant with some wheat flour mixed in the roots.

But the taste was good, and of course it might have something to do with the fact that I hadn't eaten fresh grains for a long time.

Early the next morning, the moon spirit and I followed Nicholas and ten other Nicky people carrying rafts across the hills to the sea.

Yue Ling and I were fully armed, dressed in bulletproof vests and helmets, each equipped with cold weapons and firearms for close combat. I was a nail gun, while the moon was a Type 92 handgun that was brought out of their Ocean Park stronghold.

Those Nikes, on the other hand, carried a bamboo basket filled with tree spears on their backs. I handed over the tactical folding knife that Duan Xiaoxiao had brought with him to Nicholas.

Maybe it was because I was still worried about the safety of the raft, but Nicholas even demonstrated to me in the shallow water that they were very skilled at using the raft. He felt as if they had become one with the raft, but the only way they could control the raft was by using a flat oar made of wood.

There was no time to lose. Since the raft was safe, Moon Spirit and I quickly boarded it.

Nicholas told me to sit in the middle with the moon spirit, and the other Nicky people surrounded us, so that even if the waves caused me to lose my balance with the moon spirit, they would still be able to protect us.

Soon, the raft began to move towards the depths of the sea.

I don't know how these Nicky guys got their bearings, but it felt like they had satellite navigation in their bodies, and after drifting on the surface of the sea for almost an hour, I actually saw the outline of our island again.

Along with our small island is another island, which is the Microislands that we went to previously and met the Giant Lizard Komodo for the first time.

I quickly gave Nicholas a direction so he wouldn't enter the Microislands. Although I wanted to check out the situation there, I didn't have the time to waste right now.

Nicholas nodded to show that he understood.

I also told Nicholas to talk to his ten other tribesmen. When we got to the island, everything had to be done at my behest, and at first we had to follow them all until we confirmed the island was safe.

I looked at the outline of the island from a distance and thought to myself, It's been almost a month.

As far as I know, the mad animals kill each other, too. According to this logic, there should be very few animals left on the island. As for the Salvation Army, they were either evacuated or died on the island, so there was no need to worry.

All I could hope for now was that the first light of dawn would survive the riots. With his agility and his skill at running, it was impossible to say that it was completely impossible.

Although I don't really like these two fellows, they are my old classmates after all. Furthermore, we could be considered to have gone through life and death situations together, so if the two of them were to survive, I would naturally be very happy. Furthermore, my intuition is very strong. The lives of these two people seem to be unusually large.

as we get closer and closer to the island

I saw the moon's eyes widen.

I asked her carefully, "How is it?" "How do you feel?"

Moon spirit frowned and also looked at me: "Xiao Chen has …"

"Feel it?"

"En." Moon spirit nodded. "There is a strange sense of familiarity similar to the one I felt when I first met you!"

"That's right!" I encouraged her, "When you get to the island, try to find out what you've felt before!"

Moon spirit nodded.

Nicholas thought our conversation was a little weird, and he frowned at me and the moon spirit.

I told Nicholas not to get distracted. Although the journey was smooth and calm, he had to be alert when he reached the shore. If he flipped the raft here, the moon spirit and I could still swim to the shore, but we definitely wouldn't be able to save the other Nicky people.

But I didn't have to worry about the Nicky's skill with rafts, and the closer I got to the shore, the more I sensed the speed of the raft, which didn't seem to be much slower than a cruise ship. No wonder we'd taken an hour to get here.

Nearer

And I was surprised to find myself feeling at home.

F * ck.

Judging from the direction of the sun, we are now close to the northernmost tip of the island, the one where the Nikes had settled before us.

I could see the beach clearly now. Everything was calm, no dead animals.

However, it is very likely that this was caused by a forest fire on the west coast when I left the island, which attracted all the animals there …

It seems that the forest fire has not yet spread over the entire island. At least the woods at the northern end of the island that we see now are still intact, probably due to the heavy rain that day.

docked

I took the moon spirit's hand and stepped onto the beach

The other Nicky took the raft and hid it in a bush.

"Moon spirit, did you remember something?" I asked, looking hopefully at the moon spirit.

Moon spirit frowned, as if she was deep in thought …

She started rubbing her temples again, and I knew she was suffering from a headache, so I quickly put my arms around her and said, "Don't worry, think slowly, it doesn't matter if you can't remember."

Moon spirit turned to look at me, then smiled.

Frontal

It's that kind of standard young girl's green smile. I think that for her, I would prefer her strange 'Moon Spirit Form' smile from before.

Nicholas and the others hid the raft and walked towards me. Nicholas scanned the situation in front of them and said, "I think this place isn't as dangerous as you said."

Sure enough, there was a hint of doubt in his tone. I frowned and looked at him. "This is only the northern end of the island. The real disturbance is in the west and the south."

"Then where should we start?" Nicholas asked.

If Chen Xi is really still alive, then he would definitely come to our previous hiding spots, such as the three Bluebird Company's bases, including Lou Lan's, and our Little Rock Mountain's campsite. Then, he could possibly go to Niu Zhuang's campsite and Duan Long's campsite, and then there's the place in the southeast corner of the island where there was a large amount of gasoline, diesel, and heavy truck.

If it hadn't been for that, I might have sneaked into an underground building on the edge of the Grand Canyon to see what was going on.

I began to go through the locations in my mind, and soon gave them the most time-saving route I could think of.

If we travel from the north to the south, we will first reach the Nikki settlement, then Niu Zhuang's camp, then the small buildings, the farm, and the third base of the Bluebird Company that was later occupied by the "pirates".

Further south we will reach the Great Canyon, which is filled with seawater, and then we will be able to return to our Little Rock Mountain's camp.

They would reach Duan Long's campsite after traveling a distance to the southwest.

Soon I was leading the way toward the Nikki settlement.

Fifteen minutes later, we were standing on the ruins of the Nikki settlement, where the bodies of the Nikes who had been buried in the dawn had been reduced to piles of bones. I told Nicholas that these were the bodies of their companions.

Nicholas said a few words to the other Nikes, and they all walked over to where the bones were. They put their hands on their knees and began to sing a strange and ethereal song.

However, as their voices rang out, the moon spirit actually began to hum a song …

And it sounds a little familiar to me
