This proposal sounded harmless, so everyone stood up straight, cheered up, stood back to the position where they fell into the darkness at first, and began to summon Bill or any of Bill's servants to pull them back to the gorgeous room they were summoned Middle: "Bill, let us go up there!"
After shouting for about ten seconds, a circle of pale white circular light appeared underground, marking out a perfectly circular territory. No need to explain, everyone knew that they had to stand in the circle, and after another ten seconds, the floor instantly rose, transporting them back to Bill.
Bill turned his back to them, and when everyone stood still, he turned around, knocked on the floor with the diamond-encrusted gold cane, and asked, "Dear warriors, have you gained anything from this trip?"
Xu Mo stood up and replied: "I got the water dragon ball, but it was taken away by one of my companions... I don't know if this counts as completing half of the task?"
Bill straightened his left index finger, put it in front of his mouth and shook it: "No, no, no, if you can't return this water dragon ball, the task will not be considered complete, and you won't get half a cent of the benefits. Not only that, if you don't hand it in If you drop the water dragon pearls, you won’t be able to get out of Iwo Jima, after all, didn’t I give you back a bunch of diving pearls?”
"Ah? Can't get out of Iwo Jima?!... We are rushing to Brunei." Nolan cupped his cheeks in surprise, "This is absolutely impossible!——We return the diving pearls to you, return them now you!"
"No, are you really going to cancel this mission?... I've been waiting here for several months. I haven't had any warriors come to challenge this mission recently. I'm quite sad." Bill showed an exaggerated disappointment. expression.
Seeing his reaction, Xu Mo understood that if he returned the diving pearls, he might be able to escape, so he hurriedly handed over his own pearls. Nolan took the little black dragon and his own, and Ferrier took a lot of them, and together with Lawrence , handed the pearl up.
Bill took a few steps back in distaste, and waved his hand to call for an attendant to collect them. The maid who came over with a tray lightly took all the diving pearls and counted them, then raised her head and said, "There is one more."
"What?" Nolan blinked.
So, the maid repeated again: "There is still one left."
Nolan immediately expressed his collapse and hugged his head, and everyone realized that there was another one on the prophet Nine Tails, which seemed to be taken away by him.
"If you don't exchange all the pearls, none of you will ever get out of Iwo Jima!" Bill sternly tapped the floor with his gold and diamond cane.

"This prophet! He planned to trap us in this mission early in the morning?! I think he is so powerful, he feels that he can breathe underwater without using that pearl, but he still took this item... The key is, he took it away Tell me, isn’t it enough to take away the water dragon ball? It’s too shameless to be greedy even for such a small thing!” Philier followed Xu Mo and Nolan all the way chattering , The two brothers and sisters almost reached their chests with their chins in frustration.
Lawrence followed at the end, walked out of Yellow Shark Fort, and then said: "The prophet may still be on this island, let's not think about the worst, go find him, and maybe get a pearl or a water dragon ball." Want to come back?"
The three people walking in front turned their heads in unison, with the expression that you are an idiot clearly on their faces.
Nolan responded: "This Nine-Tails Prophet is now in menopause and is very violent. Finding him... I feel that not only will I not get my things back, but I may even lose my life..."
"But, that's the only way at the moment." Xu Mo sighed at this moment, and took the words, "We can only try to find the Prophet Kyuubi, even if we can't get the water dragon ball back, at least let him return the diving pearl so We can get off the island."
"Are you confident in persuading him?" Ferrier asked curiously.
Xu Mo sighed crisply, and replied: "No."

They said they wanted to find the Prophet Nine Tails, but the cobblers had no idea at all. According to the usual choice, they had to go to the hotel in the city first to see if they could get information from others.
It was just past midnight, but the hotel was still full of people, but everyone seemed to be only interested in making money. When it came to finding someone, most of the answers were like this: "Do you know how many people go back and forth to the Iwo Jima Hotel every day?" People? Who has the time to pay attention to other adventurers? Prophet? Are you drunk? I have never heard of a prophet coming to the hotel... "
After half an hour of random inquiries, the flow of people gradually thinned out, but there was no useful news at all.
Nolan crossed his arms and walked back and forth twice angrily, then jumped in front of his companions, and said, "That Bill won't let us go, so is it really impossible to go? Otherwise, we'll take advantage of the night to rent How about a boat and fled overnight to Brunei?"
"I can only try everything now, it's better than just sit and wait for death." Xu Mo agreed, and Ferrier nodded vigorously.
Only Lawrence couldn't help covering his face, and said: "I just want to form a team to fight missions, what kind of evil is this..."
Under Lawrence's half-push and half-push, the group still quickly came to the port. However, miraculously, whenever they asked to rent a boat, the other party's answer must be: "You have a ban, and you must not rent a boat to the port. you."
After trying three times, they began to look at each other desperately, trying to find out if Bill had labeled or cursed them. Even the station of the airship would not allow them to take half a step.
"Okay now, we're really stuck here..." Philier sat on the ground outside the airship station.
"If I had known, I wouldn't have returned that Bill or some diving pearls. Maybe we could swim to Brunei!" Nolan also pouted, and sat next to Ferrier.
"Don't be too fancy." Lawrence continued to pour cold water, "Swimming in the deep sea area is equivalent to feeding yourself to the monsters in the deep sea area. It is one of the very creative ways to die."
Xu Mo was silent for a while, and asked Fei Lier: "How much money are we short of, can we get 1000 gold?"
Nolan suddenly realized and raised his head: "That purple hut?!"
Xu Mo nodded: "We have to try everything, let's go buy a message and try it out."
