"I can't hear you write."
"shaike! shshsy..."
““.”
Three different records appeared on the white printed paper. Regardless of whether these were the consciousness of three heads, Dipper and Lily first focused on the first line of each other's barely understandable words.
"Lily, does it mean that we should write it on the ground?"
"Well, I'll give it a try." After Lily looked around, she gently extended her glowing index finger and wrote a line of information on a pile of dirt nearby.
"Do you know where Winky is? I'm looking for her. Winky is the one who caught the whale and fed it to you."
Just as Lily finished writing, a pair of large green hands with fangs on the palms reached out, picked up the soil with the words written on it and stuffed it into her mouth. After tasting it carefully, the mind printer started working again with a clicking sound.
"She left. In a hurry. She took the others and left us alone."
"She left in a hurry? She took all the other children away and only left you behind?"
Lily asked subconsciously, then she immediately realized that the other party couldn't hear her, so she repeated the sentence on the ground.
"It's next to her. There is fear. Fear is kind to us. We hide. Very deep"
Seeing this, the two of them immediately became excited. What was there next to Shanshan? Doesn't that mean it must be Charles's
"Is it a man with many scars on his face? Oh, by the way, the hair on his head is made of tentacles, his left arm is mechanical, and there is a red spider in his right eye?" Because of excitement, Lily's fingers even trembled slightly as she wrote.
"Fear, despair, fear. We ran away, but we still felt it in the sea." As if recalling some special breath, the huge monster's body began to tremble slightly.
Such a description made Lily's excitement gradually fall back to the starting point. This description was not like Mr. Charles. Although he had many scars on his face, he was not so scary.
"Lily, don't ask these questions. Just ask where Winky has gone. This guy just looks big, but his brain is not working well at all." Dipper on the side kept urging her, he looked very anxious.
Lily did as she was told, and the other party gave her an unexpected reply. "Fear. Breath of the North"
"North. North." Dipper quickly conjured up a nautical chart of the entire Earth Sea in his mind. "No, that's not right. There is nothing in the north except for a few islands that have been shelved for exploration because they are too dangerous. What is Shanshan going there for? Is it further north? If it goes further north, it will reach Tianshui Island."
"If even the monsters can sense some kind of terrifying aura, the people on the island should definitely be aware of it, unless Shanshan is somewhere between Tianshui Island and the Crown of the World."
"Seeking. Her. Longing for us." The huge monster raised the shining portrait again.
Lily nodded vigorously, "Yes! We will find Shanshan! Then I will let you return to her, and then we can play together again."
The purpose of this time seems to have been achieved. Now that we know the approximate location, we at least need to continue searching.
But Lily had a new question at this time. "Um, how come your bodies are connected? Did you get affected by something? I remember you were separated before."
The hybrid monster raised a sucker tentacle and dragged a human corpse in a white robe from the nearby ruins. "They... the food is bad, they imprisoned me."
For a moment they were a little confused.
"In fact, it's not the gods who enslaved the believers, but the people on the Crown Island of the World deliberately imprisoned this monster here and forced them to worship it as a god?" Dipper expressed his guess.
"But why are they doing this?" Lily looked at the hybrid monster in front of her with heartache.
Before she could finish, there was new movement at the exit of the city in the distance. Teams of world-class, fully armed soldiers walked in pushing various sports cars.
Governor Smith was also standing in the front, and it was obvious that the other party was going to use the power of the entire island to deal with the invaders.
The walls of the houses all around fell off one after another, and black gun muzzles protruded from inside. The entire city instantly turned into a trap pocket array, with all the gun muzzles pointing at Dipper and their former god.
Smith's attitude was still as enthusiastic as ever, but the words spoken in that enthusiastic tone made people feel a chill on the back of their necks.
"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry. I tried everything I could to stop you from exploring this place, but I failed. Since you've all seen it, in order to keep it a secret, you all stay here today."
"Is this how you treat your God?" Dipper looked around warily and said slowly.
Unexpectedly, when Smith and the priests behind him heard Dipper's words, they showed expressions of disgust on their faces.
"No, it is not our God. It ceased to be our God the moment it was defeated by you. We have already found our God before, but now it seems that we found the wrong one. Our God will never be defeated by trash like you."
As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of shells being loaded could be heard all around. It was obvious that they came prepared.
If attacked by too many shells, even Lily would find it difficult to completely protect the opponent.
"Come closer later." Lily wiped her sweaty palms and said to Dipper and the hybrid monster.
Just as Governor Smith raised his right hand, a woman's voice came from behind him. "I think you guys need to hear this."
There, Deep's wife, Alia, was walking slowly through the crowd, carrying a smoking steam machine on her back.
"That's great. I was just wondering how I could spend my time looking for you guys, but I didn't expect you to come to my door. Is the boat docked?"
Facing the threat from the other party, Alia didn't take it seriously at all. She took out a spring and inserted it into the mechanical device on her back and quickly turned it twice. Then the sound of bandages from Hope Island in the distance came from inside.
"I already know what happened. I am here, as the Governor of Hope Island, to make an announcement. If one of my people loses a hair, the Navy of Hope Island will completely erase the crown of the world from the nautical charts and you will all die."
Bandage still spoke intermittently, and his tone was very calm, but as soon as his domineering words came out, everyone present felt the temperature drop by several degrees in an instant.
After a brief pause of a few seconds, Governor Smith, whose back teeth were almost broken, raised his feet with difficulty and slowly retreated into the maroon circular tunnel with his subordinates.
