With a plop, Huang Zao suddenly knelt on the ground, hit his forehead hard on the ground, and took the initiative to beg for mercy: "Two adults! I am Huang Zao, and I ran away from the battle. I was wrong, I committed an unforgivable crime! Xiao Xiao

People will not resist, and if they want to be killed or chopped into pieces, it is entirely up to you two adults to deal with them!"

Later, Lan Zao also knelt on the ground and begged the substitute for forgiveness.

Cang Xu also defended him.

Zidi glanced at the two brothers kneeling on the ground and couldn't help but sneered: "This despicable and cowardly villain deceived Lord Zhenjin and concealed the existence of the Silver Monster just for his own selfishness. Then he escaped from the battlefield and killed the noble blooded person.

In dangerous places, kindness will be repaid with hatred! Scholar, do you advise us to treat such people lightly?"

Although she said this on the surface, the girl was filled with joy.

This situation was better than she expected. She originally thought it would take a battle to make them surrender.

Cangxu fought for leniency for the brothers Lan Zao and Huang Zao, and Lan Zao and Huang Zao volunteered to become slaves.

"Sir." Zidi looked at Zhen Jin, as if she were a subordinate waiting for the latter's decision, and was a little worried about the substitute's impulsiveness.

As a result, the substitute said this: "Don't overestimate people, and don't underestimate people. This sentence is the family motto of my Baizhen clan. So, Xanthellae and Cyanoa, I am willing to give you two a chance, and I hope you can use your loyalty to

and take concrete actions to change my view of you."

"The glory of the temple covers every inch of the land. The military flag of the empire protects every citizen of the empire. Follow me, and I will lead you out of here alive."

Zidi breathed a sigh of relief.

The substitute is not motivated by emotion, pays attention to practical benefits, and has a very aristocratic demeanor.

"Especially the last sentence, he really looks like a Templar..."

Everyone half-knelt on the ground, acknowledging the substitute's leadership status.

"Although it's fake, the double identity of a Templar and a noble became a leader easily. If it were me, it would be impossible for me to do this in such a short period of time. Sigh... I really want to do it.

This step will consume far more time, energy and cost than a substitute." Zidi sighed.

The team rested, and the substitute summoned Cang Xu alone.

"I wonder what the substitute's leadership skills are like?"

"According to intelligence and personal observation, Zhen Jin's leadership ability is worrying."

"No, I have to help him more."

Zidi couldn't take any time off, so she quickly made initial contact with each member. As a businessman, she is actually very good at sociability.

Soon, she restored the entire truth.

"This Cang Xu is not simple!" Zidi reminded the substitute when they were alone.

"Don't overestimate people, and don't underestimate people." The substitute sighed, and then informed Zidi, "As for my incomplete memory and my inability to use fighting energy, I need to keep it secret for the time being."

Zidi nodded repeatedly, her face slightly solemn: "I understand, sir."

She was about to remind the substitute about this.

She didn't want this secret to be exposed.

The appearance of Cang Xu made Zidi wary.

This old scholar is definitely a smart man. The substitute's reason and agility have already made Zidi feel more pressure. If people like Cang Xu know more, it will do no harm to Zidi.

"You make arrangements and call the members of the exploration team in one after another. I will talk to them alone in the tent." The substitute finally ordered Zidi.

This move made the girl slightly stunned.

Then, she asked Bai Ya and others about the substitute's promise - as long as she behaved well, she might be able to follow him and join Baisha City in the future! At worst, she could become a guard of Baisha City.

Zidi looked a little impressed by the substitute.

"It seems that although he has lost all his memory, he still has certain leadership abilities. My previous worries were a bit unnecessary. Is it because of his original identity?"

Zidi began to wonder about the original identity of the substitute.

Because she knew that if it was needle gold, there is a high probability that she would not do this.

Zhen Jin's attitude towards these common people is quite arrogant, and he will not lower his dignity. He goes to meet and talk to everyone. He may think that these people are lucky to follow him.

In the tent, the substitute, Zidi, Cangxu and others began to discuss the next course of action.

Everyone merged the maps in their hands, and the substitute said: "We are here now, and our goal is to return here."

No one objected to the proposal to join the main force.

Zidi sighed in her heart, she still couldn't forget the war trafficker's legacy. Before, there were only two of her and the double, but now that she has conquered such a group of people, Zidi once again has ambitions for the legacy.

Cang Xu began to talk about his speculation, and he made a shocking guess - the monsters on this island were man-made.

The substitute was surprised because it was the first time he heard this statement.

Zidi was also surprised. She looked at the old scholar in front of her and became more wary of him: How on earth did he know this secret?

Cang Xu slowly explained: "Since entering the island, I have dissected many magical beasts and found that although they have a stable cycle and their organs and tissues work closely together, as if they are born this way, when we really look into it, they are actually not natural."

Zidi frowned slightly, thinking about Cang Xu's words: "Unnatural?"

Cang Xu's next explanation made everyone gradually accept his conjecture.

Zi Di breathed a sigh of relief, Cang Xu didn't know anything about it, he just made a guess based on his rich knowledge.

"This old scholar has a lot of skills, he is not an ordinary noble housekeeper." Zidi commented in her heart.

Lan Zao couldn't help but ask: "Then who can create so many magical beasts? Which big shot in the empire is it? Is it a god? Only gods have the power to create things, right?"

Zidi's heart moved. Thanks to Cang Xu's speculation, everyone's understanding of the Mysterious Island has deepened a lot.

Zidi will not take the initiative to explain, because it will arouse suspicion. Cang Xu is an unexpected person!

"But at this point, can I push things along? I can definitely instruct these people and influence them to find the alchemy factory. As long as they don't doubt me, any attempt should be worthwhile!"

So she said: "Mages are also possible. As far as I know, legendary mages can transform and manage demiplanes. Isn't this imitating the creation of gods?"

Cang Xu further guessed: "I think that the teleportation mechanism that seems to have changed the landform is probably one of the measures taken by the owner of this island to maintain the island's ecology."

Zidi looked at Cang Xu and warned everyone again: "If these beasts are also teleported, then maybe the owner of this island is to let them fight and select the strongest monsters. It's like the alchemy puppet organized by the Alchemy Guild.

Is this competition meant to cultivate the strongest life weapon?"

Cang Xu smiled: "Master Zidi's analysis is very reasonable, and it is indeed possible. But I still insist that maintaining the ecology is more likely..."

What Cang Xu said was reasonable, and Zidi also felt it made sense.

"Perhaps this transmission mechanism has the purpose of both!"

The girl spoke again: "So, the owner of this island deliberately created jungles, mountains, deserts, snow peaks and other landforms in order to restrain these ferocious beasts, stabilize the island's ecology, and maintain the natural environment.

Is it balanced? But why do I always feel: He wants to select the strongest monster that can adapt to all environments!"

(If someone associates lycanthropy and life alchemy, they may guess that the island lord is a war monger.)

Cang Xu went on to explain his speculation: "Chaotic magic is extremely unstable and sometimes explodes... In this environment, low-level magic and fighting spirit are prohibited, which protects these monsters and maintains their stability.

, let them last forever."

Zidi couldn't help but look at Cang Xu with admiration again.

She had guessed this secret a long time ago, but she didn't expect that an outsider like Cang Xu would delve so deeply into it. And all this was achieved by this old scholar with the help of his own knowledge and wisdom.

Seeing that everyone still had no intention of looking for the center, Zidi finally couldn't help but say: "If Mr. Cangxu's guess is true, then both this island and all kinds of magical beasts are transformed. Then this island

, there must be a center. You think, what will happen if we find this center?"

Lan Zhao quickly said: "Isn't this too dangerous? We can't fight against the existence of so many magical beasts that can transform the entire island. This is simply asking for death!"

Zidi smiled and shook her head slightly: "In fact, it's not."

"If you think about it carefully, according to our previous analysis, there are two most likely ones."

"The first possibility is that the owner of the island has gone out and is not on the island. This is the best time for us to raid the center."

"The second possibility is that the owner of the island has always been there, but he didn't take action. He monitored us, played with us, or didn't care about us. However, once we successfully escape from the island, he will definitely take action to kill us in order to keep it secret.

"

"So, instead of doing this, it's better to go straight to the center."

"Once the center is destroyed, we can stop the teleportation and return the island's environment to normal. We can use magic and fighting spirit, and those ferocious beasts will collapse. This is extremely beneficial to our escape."

Lan Zao was dumbfounded. Thinking about it this way, it seems right!

Zidi looked at the substitute again, her eyes sparkling: "Lord Zhenjin, we are going to the Orc Continent and strive to take control of Baisha City. If we can obtain such magic technology, we can mass-produce silver-level and gold-level products.

Warcraft. Even if these ferocious beasts can only last for a short time, they will self-destruct. Do you think this will be of great benefit to us?"

For a moment, the substitute's heart skipped a beat.

"Sir," Cang Xu said slowly, "I do not agree with Lord Zidi's suggestion."

Cang Xu talked about four aspects, with clear logic and organization. These words completely moved the substitute.

The stand-in thought for a moment, then nodded: "The analysis is very good. The center is too ethereal, the risks are too great, and our strength is insufficient, so the first goal is to join the large force and build a sea ship to escape from the island as soon as possible.

"Damn it!" Zi Di secretly clenched her fists, feeling very unwilling.

"Do I really have to miss out on the war smuggler's legacy?"

"That is the legacy of a great master of alchemy!"

"If I get it, my life and my destiny will be greatly improved!"

Zidi was helpless, she had no way to tell the truth. If she revealed the truth even slightly, she might get burned and destroy herself.

The decision has been made, but no one is in a hurry to set off.
To be continued...
