After hearing the savage's words, Ella plucked up the courage, stood up and rushed towards Amy. The shaking was violent, and she still lost her footing and fell into the water halfway. But the water in the lake was just as the savage said, and it would only cover her shoulders. She floated in the water and swam forward for a while, and finally managed to grab the rope. The savage pulled her hard from behind and pulled her ashore.

The shaking continued, more and more stone pillars fell from the top of the mountain, and the entire cave was in danger. But the savage stumbled and couldn't find his way because his eyes were fascinated. Dast rushed over and grabbed the end of the rope, shouting to the savage: "Brother, I'm leading the way, you grab the rope and follow me!"

The group of people helped each other and ran out of the cave. The world suddenly opened up, the mountain peaks were still the same mountain peaks, and the woods were still the same woods. Only the birds hovering in the sky were swooping down without exception.

"What happened to these birds?" Amy asked, "Are they all drunk? Why did they all fall to the ground?"

"It's not the birds that are falling down, it's us that are rising! This whole island is rising!" Dast turned to the savage who was pulled out and shouted, "What on earth is going on? You just said about this island Is it a giant beast summoned by some kind of master? Is it hungry and wants to eat, or is it upset and wanting to have diarrhea?"

"Most of the time, McGranica is very honest."

The savage stretched out his hands and groped forward, staggered, and almost tripped over a stone on the ground. Dast couldn't see it, so he put the water bottle in its hand and said, "Rinse your eyes with this, and then you can speak again when you can see clearly!"

Debris rolled down from the top of the mountain, and the entire mountain range behind Ella was shaking under the power of the earth, and it looked like a landslide might occur at any time. The forest in front blocked the view, making it impossible for Ella to see clearly what was happening on the island.

"It's not time to rest yet, help him run!" Ella ordered the two pirates who followed him, "Let's run to an open place first!"

The woods were overturned in patches, the mountains were trembling and shaking, and animals were making frightened cries one after another. Everyone knew in their hearts that a drastic change was taking place in this land. Like the animals, they could not figure out the cause of the matter, but their wild instinct drove them to leave this place quickly.

Ella and others stumbled down the mountain road, and finally came to an open area, where they saw the coast where they landed.

The flying Zealander is so huge that even from here, you can see its huge hull, and its relative position to the coast once again clearly told them the fact that "the island is rising" - it is moving together with The water dropped together, gradually moving away from the beach and away from Ella's sight. Not long after, it seemed to have touched the mudflats on the bottom of the sea and stopped falling. In the blink of an eye, the mudflat where the anchor was rooted emerged from the sea with a "bang".

If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, Ella would never have believed that this huge island floating on the sea was actually just a small part of the uppermost part of the giant beast that the savages called McGranika.

The submerged mudflats rose together with the island, lifting Aila's fleet up again. The seawater that originally accumulated above the mudflat seemed to have been drained, turning into countless huge waterfalls, flowing downwards with a "swishing" sound.

"It's because you just pulled out Master Querakiri's staff!" The savage finally finished cleaning his eyes and gasped, "I can't control this giant beast with just my strength. It can be quiet on the sea. The reason why the earth is wandering is all because of the staff left by Master Querakiri. As soon as the staff was pulled out, it went out of control!"

"Oh my God!" Dast shouted, holding his head, "Why don't you find someone to take care of such an important thing?"

"Why isn't anyone watching?" The savage was angry at Dast's words. "Didn't you hear that eerie voice before you entered the cave? That was Purgatorio, who came at my call. The devil is coming! Isn’t his resistance tenacious? You didn’t force your way in!"

"What Purgatorio, we have never seen him before!"

"I know, no wonder my head was always hot in front of the cave." Ella held her forehead, "I'm afraid this magic also belongs to the Semitic system, and I eliminated it!"

While he was talking, an earth-shattering neighing sound suddenly came from the sea, which was far louder than thunder. On the sea level about one nautical mile away from the coast, a giant turtle's head poked out from the bottom of the sea.

"It's actually a turtle!" the two pirates exclaimed, "We are actually anchored on the back of a turtle!"

"This is the full picture of the summoned beast Magranika." The savage said, "Such a behemoth is a great beast that can only be driven by a great man like Master Quilaqiri!"

The shaking of the earth stopped. After most of its body surfaced, the turtle stopped rising. Ella and others only felt a huge force pushing them forward, and then a strong wind hit them in the face - this huge sea turtle was swimming quickly on the sea. Although he was huge, his speed was very fast. It seems to be still on "The Flying Zealander".

When things have developed to this point, anyone would want to find out who Master Querakiri is, but Ella asked another question:

"You said it's out of control now, right?" Ella looked at the savage seriously, "Then what will happen next? Will it sink directly to the bottom of the sea after it gets tired of swimming?"

While asking this question, Ella's mind was also spinning rapidly - since it took so much time for the turtle to rise to its current height, this time can also be calculated when it descends. They need to be on standby on the flying Sealander at all times. When the turtle sinks, they have to seize the short time when the ship touches the sea and set sail in time.

But the savage shook his head.

"McGranika likes the sun and will not choose to sink into the sea. After breaking away from the control of Master Querakiri, it will go all the way south until it merges with its hometown."

"Its hometown?" Ella remembered the contents of the map inserted into the staff, "Are you referring to 'Terra Australis ignotga' (the unknown continent in the south)?"

The savage nodded in admiration: "That's right there. I have only heard this term from Master Quilaqiri for decades, and you are the second one. Master Quilaqili said that you have extraordinary knowledge, and sure enough, in this way."

Ella suddenly became interested: "So, that Master Quelaciri has discovered the unknown continent in the south?"
