“It’s a relief he’s still alive. General Dong, do you know him? Is he involved in this operation?” Zhang Xiaohou asked.

Only Mu Bai knew how to heal a person, but he relied on the strange bugs he had kept.

Mu Bai managed to wake the man up. He had been floating in the water for some time. His lips were extremely dry, and kept asking for drinking water.

“He’s not one of ours,” General Dong said.

“Friend, how did you end up here?” Mo Fan asked.

“Where am I? Have I reached the land?” the man asked nervously. He was behaving strangely as if he had experienced something terrible.

“We are in the mist. We are far from the land,” Mo Fan said.

“Bring me back, please bring me back,” the man pleaded.

Mo Fan explained the situation to the man briefly. The group was not going back until they had killed the Sea Skeleton King, but the man was not in the right mind. He would let out strange cries occasionally. It was difficult to communicate with him.

Mo Fan let out a sigh and looked at Apas.

Apas nodded. She put the man to sleep with a quick look.

The man stopped struggling. Apas placed her hand on the man’s forehead.

“His thoughts are in a mess. I can only read limited information from his mind…” Apas told Mo Fan.

“It’s fine, if he’s just a passerby, we’ll throw him back to the sea,” Mo Fan said.

Mu Ningxue glared at Mo Fan, and he just chuckled.

—

“This way, there are memories of the Mist Island in his mind,” Apas suddenly pointed behind them.

“Isn’t that the way back? Are we really that lost in this mist?”

The group started traveling in the opposite direction. A few minutes later, they finally spotted a black outline on the calm sea.

It was an island!

The island was surprisingly small, but it was a sign they were no longer going around in circles.

“HAHA, we’ve found it…” Zhao Manyan was about to laugh, but it was replaced with a grim face when he recalled the Sea Skeleton King was resting on the island.

There was no reason for him to celebrate!

“Don’t go there, please don’t go there. You are going to die, so am I!” The man suddenly screamed like a maniac.

Apas raised her hand. Everyone thought she was going to hypnotize the man, but she swung her hand down at the back of the man’s head and knocked him out.

“Couldn’t you do it gently?” Mo Fan asked.

“I’m trying to preserve as much energy as I can!” Apas replied.

They were about to fight the Sea Skeleton King. Apas did not want to waste her energy on hypnotizing the man, even though it would not consume much of her energy.

——

The group entered the island. They did not have a special plan in mind.

General Dong frowned when he saw piles of blood scattered across the island.

“Isn’t…isn’t that Mr. Ge!?” General Dong suddenly exclaimed when he saw something.

The group went closer and found the badge of the Dongfang Oriental Tower in a messy pile. It was a badge that identified a High Seater!

“There’s another one over here. It seems like they did find the island, but they all died here after failing to find the way out.” Lingling pointed at the dead bodies scattered close to the reefs.

Most of the corpses were mangled beyond recognition. They only recognized them through their uniforms.

Some of them were following the High Seater, while the rest were General Dong’s men. They were supposed to find the safest route to the island for Mo Fan’s group.

In the end, they had all been killed. General Dong had thought that they had yet to find the way to the island!

“This can’t be, the Sea Skeleton King is severely injured. Even if they couldn’t beat it, they should have no trouble running away. How did this happen?” General Dong was struggling to accept the outcome.

He immediately thought of another possibility. Did the Emperor show up again and kill everyone here? Wouldn’t that mean we are all as good as dead?

“Brother Fan, it’s right ahead!” Zhang Xiaohou had returned from scouting the island. He had explored the island and found the Sea Skeleton King!

“The six of us will go while the rest of you stay here. Apas, you’re staying here too,” Mo Fan did not let Lingling and Jiang Shaoxu go any closer.

Apas nodded.

It was meaningless for her to go any further. The Sea Skeleton King was an Elemental Creature with the traits of an Undead. A creature like it was immune to any spiritual and psychological magic.

——

Zhang Xiaohou led the way. He was controlling the wind to form a curtain and conceal their presence.

They noticed a huge cliff as they reached a certain height.

The waves were splashing against the cliff. It was around a hundred meters tall.

The Sea Skeleton King was right below the cliff, sitting in the water. Even so, its head was almost the same height as the cliff.

It was giving off huge pressure, even though it was sitting still like a huge statue.

“It seems to be fast asleep, but it’s going to wake up as soon as we make our move. Look over there,” Zhang Xiaohou pointed down the cliff.

There was a small beach under the cliff. It was covered in black rocks.

They assumed everyone on the island had died brutally to the Sea Skeleton King. To their surprise, the tiny figures close to the Sea Skeleton King were human Mages.

“Why are they Casting spells on the Sea Skeleton King? Are they hypnotizing the Sea Skeleton King to make it fall asleep?” Mo Fan asked, puzzled by their behavior.

“I think they are using the Healing Element, judging from the light,” Mu Ningxue said.

“Yes, they are using Healing Magic. I was able to sneak closer. I noticed they are all Healers. Something is controlling them. They are using Healing Magic on the Sea Skeleton King continuously,” Zhang Xiaohou said.

Mo Fan slapped Zhang Xiaohou on the head.

“Are you stupid? Why didn’t you stop them? No wonder everyone on the island is dead. The Sea Skeleton King has recovered more than twenty percent of its strength!” Mo Fan spat.

Those people were healing the Sea Skeleton King!

Their minds were obviously being controlled. The sea monsters had enslaved their Healers! With the Healers’ help, the Sea Skeleton King was going to fully recover in several days!

It was likely that both Chairman Shao Zheng and General Dong did not expect this!
