Heimsala's thoughts were not very vague, not clear at all, and could not form a complete sentence, just like a person with an expression disorder who spoke vaguely and stammered. Sui Xiong had to put in a lot of effort to understand every word it said.

This legendary sea monster seemed to have not encountered a powerful being who could communicate with him normally for a long time, and he said a lot in one breath. It's messy and verbose, just like an old man talking nonsense - and he also has dementia.

Communicating with it was definitely not a pleasant thing, but Sui Xiong still had the patience to chat with it slowly. At his suggestion, Heimsala restrained her power, and the sea that was originally stormy and cloudy suddenly became calm and calm, as if everything just now was just an illusion.

The captain was overjoyed, and hurriedly ordered the sailors to raise the sail, and used a wind-making scroll to create a strong sea wind, pushing the sailboat quickly and leaving Hell Bay as if running for his life.

Oh, it’s not like “running for one’s life”, it’s basically running for one’s life…

Under the calm sea, Sui Xiong and Heimsala had been chatting - most of the time, Heimsala was talking, and Sui Xiong was only responsible for listening and asking.

It was not easy to meet someone with whom I could communicate as an equal. Heimsala was very talkative and could talk endlessly. And it has no sense of confidentiality. Sui Xiong just answers whatever he asks, telling everything he knows.

When Sui Xiong asked why it appeared here, it suddenly became excited and yelled for a long time before finally calming down and telling Sui Xiong the reason.

Not long ago, Heimsala felt the aura of its old enemy Timsar. It slowly searched for this aura and passed by here - according to its induction, the aura was still ahead.

Sui Xiong immediately thought of the shipwreck that happened in Dahuangjiao, and couldn't help but secretly guess... Could it be that Timsal is still staying in Dahuangjiao? Or even if it has left, it has not gone far

But there was one thing he was curious about. Heimsala and Timsal were both transformed from the remains of the "living tsunami" Salament. They should be considered brothers, but why did Hemsala call Timsal? What about the "old enemy"

So he asked this question, and Hemsala replied: After they separated from the remains of Salament, they equally divided the remaining divinity and power of Salament who failed to become a god. Their nature told them that as long as they By killing the opponent and devouring the opponent's divinity and power, you can improve your life essence. Even if you cannot reach the point where you can try to become a god again, you can at least become the best among demigods.

More importantly, because the powers of "storm", "tsunami", etc. are equally shared by both sides, their powers are incomplete. It is precisely for this reason that Hemsala is a bit slow and demented. If it wants to heal itself and gain complete sanity and clear thinking, it must kill Timsal and regain its full strength.

Of course, the most important reason is very simple - it hates Timsal, and the other party must also do the same.

"Why does it feel like the emphasis is completely reversed..." Sui Xiong complained silently, accompanying his new friend to speed through the sea, following its senses.

Of course, he did not forget to send a message to Lei so that his loyal knight would not have to worry.

Heimsala is stronger than Timsal, but its movements are relatively slow, so even if it senses Timsal's aura, it can't catch up with it and can only catch up behind it in vain. But with the help of Sui Xiong, the situation is completely different. Even though Sui Xiong is just a clone moving here, and the combat effectiveness is far from the original body that is constantly accumulating strength in the high altitude of the northwest of the mainland, it is enough to help it speed up.

With the help of Sui Xiong, Hemsala restrained his huge strength, and his whole body turned into a tornado roaring on the sea, swimming slowly and slowly towards the Great Wilderness Cape.

To be honest, its speed is still not fast. In Sui Xiong's opinion, it is no different from a turtle crawling. But Heimsala is very satisfied with this speed - this is a high speed it has never experienced in its life, and it can guarantee it. There is absolutely no way that Timsal guy can have such a speed!

As long as it maintains its current speed and follows the natural induction between each other, it won't take long for it to catch up with Timsal and completely eliminate the guy who has been struggling with it for countless years!

The days of sailing at sea always pass quickly, and more than a month passes in the blink of an eye. The ship that Lei and the others took successfully arrived at the Blue Moon Kingdom. After taking a short rest, they found the ship heading to Gars City. Although it was a cargo ship and the accommodation conditions were definitely not good, for everyone who was busy chasing clues, the hardship was not a big deal.

After another journey that was definitely not pleasant, they finally arrived at their destination and disembarked in Gars City.

The name Garth City comes from the local specialty "leaf". It is an important food spice that only grows in abundance around the city of Gars. They make excellent food condiments, and some varieties, although not suitable for eating, can be used as cosmetic spices. Geranium is the city's most important source of income and is also the origin of the city's name - "Gars" is the pronunciation of "geranium" in the local dialect.

It is said that the local specialty fragrant leaves are the god of the forest/harvest goddess/ocean goddess/moon god/swamp god (many sects claim that fragrant leaves are the masterpieces of their own goddesses, and similar contents are found in different sacred texts of many sects) on the sacred tree. It reproduces after the leaves fall off. Although I don’t know why the leaves turn into cute little white flowers and grasses when they fall on the ground, the wonderful thing is that the spice crop of Geranium can only grow luxuriantly in Gars City and its surrounding areas. , even if you reluctantly plant it in another place, the yield and quality will be greatly reduced.

The first person to start the fragrant leaf business here was a Viscount named Wright. Later, the family declined for unknown reasons, and the business was taken over by the rising star Riley family. After seizing a major share of the fragrant leaf business, the Riley family focused its business on shipping and gradually built and expanded the original shallow water port. After nearly ten generations of hard work, an important port city on the east coast of the mainland was finally built.

In early spring every year, when the finest edible fragrant leaves are harvested after a whole winter, various denominations will jointly hold a grand mining ceremony. At the ceremony, there will not only be wonderful performances, but the priests will also pray for divine grace. , sending down the rain of grace that can heal the pain. So every late winter, there will be many people coming here from all over, some to watch the fun, and more to get a chance.

Vanilla, shipbuilding, shipping, commerce and tourism, the city's economy is quite complex, and any one of them is very profitable. At least 30% of all profits fell into the hands of the Riley family, making them the real controllers of the city.

The Riley family has believed in the harvest goddess for generations and is the largest force in the city. They not only have secular power, but also have a huge influence in the sacred field - the chief priests of the Harvest Goddess Church have been held by members of the Riley family for generations. This shows the goddess's favor for them.

There are three ports in Garth City, of which "Riley Port" is of course owned by the Riley family, and the other two "Herb Port" and "Rich Port" are jointly controlled by various organizations. When Lei and the others disembarked, they were on the shore of Fufu Harbor.

Although they were eager to find clues to the shipwreck, they certainly would not go straight to the city lord's mansion stupidly. Instead, they first found a hotel to settle down, and then split up to inquire about the news.

Lei once again found a well-informed person as usual. This time he expressed that he wanted to inquire about the situation of the major forces in the city, as well as those powerful people who were worth noting and must not be provoked.

This kind of thing is very common. If an experienced adventurer plans to develop in a place for a long time, he will definitely inquire about these situations carefully. So the person who sold the information didn't pay much attention. After asking a few questions, he gave him a thick piece of information - and of course, he also received a considerable amount of information fees.

Lei spent some time and read the information carefully, and couldn't help but have a bad impression of this city - this city looks magnificent on the surface, but all kinds of evil and conspiracies are endless. There are more than ten churches of evil gods with relatively certain signs of activity, and there are even many lunatics who worship the devil, are keen on causing disasters and terror, and have the ultimate goal of destroying the world.

Of course, what he is most concerned about is the situation of the City Lord Riley family. According to intelligence, the contemporary City Lord Joseph Riley is a super strong man who has stepped into the legendary field. He is nearly sixty years old, both physically and mentally. At its peak. He controls the most wealth and the most powerful organization in the city, and he is undoubtedly the strongest. His position is as stable as a rock, so that no one dares to have any bad thoughts towards him.

He has three children. The eldest daughter, He Li, is thirty-two years old and has become the chief priest of the Harvest Goddess Church. She is not married. Her character is smart and arrogant, and her methods are very tough. She is almost certain to retaliate against others.

The second son, Sheen, is twenty-six years old, married and has two children. This young master Sheehan is a humble, gentle, easy-to-get-together person with good strength and an excellent swordsman. However, the intelligence specifically emphasized that Master Sheen is definitely not as simple as he appears on the outside. Anyone who wants to provoke him should first prepare a cemetery for himself.

Lord Joseph's youngest child is called Kasally, who is only fourteen years old this year. He was born to his second wife after the death of his first wife. This girl is beautiful, good at singing and dancing, and has a quite simple personality. Perhaps because people love the youngest children, the city lord sent a whole team of guards to protect her to avoid any possible danger.

Joseph was married twice. The first wife was a powerful adventurer who went on adventures with him. She was unwilling to retire after getting married, and eventually died during an adventure. Later, he married the daughter of another commercial city lord. She was an ordinary lady. She was only thirty-three years old this year. She doted on her daughter and loved drama and poetry. She was also a well-known dramatist herself, and she was once the editor-in-chief. Live an opera.

In addition, after so many generations and so many years of operation and development, the Riley family has many branches, among which excellent and outstanding people continue to emerge. At least one-third of that document was occupied by various branches and organizations under the Riley family, which made Lei secretly frightened.

It seems that in this city that belongs to the Riley family, it is really not easy to start with Sean Riley, who is likely to succeed their family in the future, and to ask for clues about the shipwreck!
