My Summons Are All Gods - Chapter 432
“Wait a minute, I saw this hill yesterday!”
Sharena turned around and saw an old man in the team pointing at a hill in the distance and mumbling.
“You’ve seen it before? That’s normal, right? We took the same road yesterday…”
“It would be weird if you didn’t see it…”
The team was disdainful because the route they took today was exactly the same as yesterday. However, because they found their lost luggage half way yesterday, they went back early.
They planned to go further this time.
However, the old man shook his head. “The hill wasn’t at this location yesterday. I’m sure of it. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have volunteered to join the team and listen to a little girl’s command.”
Sharena rolled her eyes. She thought to herself that she really couldn’t convince the crowd as expected. No matter what, these people would come after her. They couldn’t help but mock her.
“Blackie! Come out and do your work!”
This time, Sharena used a harsher tone to call out Blackie. She was no longer as polite as she usually was.
Perhaps sensing its master’s seriousness, Blackie jumped out of the tattoo and ran towards the hill. It sniffed around the hill again and again.
A few minutes later, Blackie returned with a dejected look on its face.
“It seems like we didn’t find anything. Let’s not worry about that hill. Let’s keep moving.”
Sharena put Blackie away and continued to walk forward.
According to the old man, this hill was in a different location from yesterday. The only possibility was that there was a group of monsters hiding in this hill. They were using the soil as cover and moving.
However, Blackie, whose nose would never make a mistake, would not lie to them on this point.
Blackie did not find anything, which meant that the hill was just an ordinary hill. There was no need to worry about it.
“No, there must be something wrong.”
The old man said as he picked up a broken bone.
This bone was so fine that it could not be used as a building material. That was why it was given to everyone as a spare item. If necessary, it might be useful in that place.
The old man tore the clothes on his arm and wrapped the red cloth around the old bone. He then made a simple flag and stuck it on the hill.
Seeing the old man so stubborn, Sharena could not say anything. She could only wait for the old man to finish all this before her team set off again.
As Sharena was walking, she estimated the time. If she waited until it was dark before turning back, it would be late at night when she returned to the beach. Therefore, she had to organize her team to go home in the afternoon.
According to His Majesty’s previous request, Sharena picked up the mud on the ground and looked at it with interest as she was walking. However, no matter how she studied it, she felt that the mud in front of her was just ordinary mud.
Logically speaking, such mud should not grow poisonous wheat, but in fact it was.
At this moment, they had already traveled for a few hours, but they still did not find anything along the way.
…
This time, their team did not find anything. Other than a desolate area on the island, there was almost nothing else.
“We are not very familiar with the road today. After everyone is familiar with the road, we can move further away. The luggage might be there.”
At that time, Sharena was impulsive and that was why she chose to be the leader of this team. However, at this moment, she realized that the burden was heavy, and the atmosphere in the team needed her to be responsible for it.
Only then did she think of some comforting words to make everyone feel better.
Indeed, because they were not familiar with the road, they had to be careful along the way. In this desolate island that did not have many landmarks, they had to be careful not to take a wrong direction with every step they took. They therefore did not travel very fast.
Sharena believed that this situation would be better by tomorrow, as they would be familiar with the road then and know how to walk in a perfect straight line without landmarks. In the future, they could travel even further and perhaps the luggage was there.
Although she said so, Sharena could not believe it herself that a sneeze from the giant monkey would blow everyone’s luggage to be so far away.
Sharena looked at the boundless land behind her and thought that the chances of finding the luggage were slim.
“Let’s hope so.”
There were less than 10 people in the team that went out, and they were both happy and worried at the moment.
They were worried that apart from creating a few tired people, they did not gain anything from their trip today.
They were happy that they had probably memorized the feeling of this journey. Tomorrow, they could speed up a little and try to reach the other end of the island.
However, at his moment, an exclamation erupted from the crowd.
“Oh my God, what did I say? ! Look at the flag!”
The person who spoke was the old man just now. The old man’s hands trembled as he pointed at a spot.
It was a flat piece of land that was as smooth as a terrazzo. There was not a single sign of it floating up. And on that piece of land, there was a small flag that was made of broken bones and clothes.
Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air at this moment, because this flag was extremely familiar to everyone. It was the flag that the old man had erected on the hill.
This meant that there were two scenarios. The first scenario was that the ground was indeed floating, like some sort of wave. The height of the hill had shifted to another place.
The second scenario was that it was the same hill. However, for some reason, the flag had been moved here by something.
Regardless of the situation, there was only one result.
That was, when they were out in groups, they should never think about remembering the road, because the road was constantly changing.
They had erected the flag in the morning. They were now going back in the afternoon, and they were expected to arrive at the base before dark.
In just half a day, a hill had disappeared. If this step was put in the process of natural evolution, it would have taken a lot of time. However, the change in front of their eyes had happened only in half a day.
“We have to go back quickly. We might have alerted something.”
Someone in the team said so. Then, the entire team did not dare to let down their guard. They quickly ran toward the base as if they were afraid of being caught by something.
At this time, the Sky Dynasty was in the base at the foot of the Great Wall. Everyone had almost finished their day’s work and was ready to organize dinner.
