"Please do us a favor, grandpa. Call us a taxi, no, a super express shrimp, and take us to Bika's place." Eric, who didn't want to waste more time on the journey, requested: "We will pay for the freight. Yes. If you leave early and come back early, we can help you solve the land dispute in Shandia." Look at what Eric said, leaving early and coming back early is also for your own good. If you don't help, you are not doing yourself a favor.
"Well, there is no need to pay. I will ask it to send your ship here."
"No, no, we still have to pay for the expenses. After all, this is our own business." Eric understood that eating people is short-sighted and taking advantage of others is short-handed, so he insisted on paying.
"Just think of it as a deposit paid in advance."
Eric couldn't say anything now but agreed.
Everyone walked on the long bean vines, passed through the clouds of the island where the god lived, and continued upward.
"Don't you have a means of transportation? It's so tiring." Eric, who is used to the life of a homebody, finds it very painful to walk outside for a long time. Is it still possible to take a boat on the sea? Finally, he came to Ah Here in Payado, it's almost all walking, which makes Eric miserable.
"A man who complains about being tired will not be liked by women~" Da Vinci began to cheer Eric up, "Although I am also tired." She is also a scientist with low physical attributes, so she should prefer to stay in Do scientific experiments and develop creations in your own laboratory, or do some animal and plant research outdoors.
"We'll be there soon. I've already seen the huge golden bell with my clairvoyance." Chiron used Boss Cao's Merlin prophet's prophecy (looking at plum blossoms to quench thirst), and then explained to Eric: "It seems that the captain's physique is still the same. It takes a lot of exercise, and you have to make a good plan for future training."
"I'm not tired at all! Hurry up!" Hearing Chiron's words, Eric, who had just shouted that he was tired, immediately became energetic. He raised his head and rushed out with a hundred times more energy. He turned around and faced Everyone shouted "Hurry up!"
"Captain! You have already escaped." Without hearing Chiron's call, Eric, who was following the beanstalk, had already crossed the island cloud - the Golden Bell was on another island cloud in this layer. As a result, Unaware, Eric continued along the bean vine.
…
"Ha...ha...ha..." Eric, who was panting heavily, turned around inadvertently just now and found that everyone had not followed him. And because he was in a high position, he found that everyone was on an island cloud below, facing the cloud. edge movement. 'Done! Ran away! 'This thought flashed past and began to climb downward again.
'It's a pity that it's not Luffy who can't jump down from such a high place and jump directly to the island cloud where everyone is. Fearing that the height would be too high and causing serious injury after jumping onto the island cloud, or fearing that the falling speed would directly smash through the island cloud and fall directly to the ground in Apayado below, the timid Eric only dared to When walking on foot, don't dare to jump down to your death.
"Welcome back, Captain." Leonardo da Vinci said with a teasing smile: "Obviously he was the first to set off, but he was the last to arrive. It's like the hare in the tortoise and the hare race."
"It's a pity that I'm neither a rabbit nor you a tortoise~" After a period of practice, Eric's speech became much sharper.
"Well, it seems that the captain's brother's communication skills have improved a lot, and he is ready for the next training~"
"What! Could it be that all the previous tricks were to train my communication skills!"
"Of course. Aren't you so advanced that you don't even blush when you see me? You obviously had a nosebleed when you saw my perfect naked body before."
"What? Eric, please explain it to me later." Chitong became a little uneasy after hearing about Da Vinci, and was preparing for a three-stage trial.
"What! That was Leonardo da Vinci walking around without any clothes on after taking a bath! I didn't peek! I didn't do anything that went against moral conscience or legal procedures!" Eric defended himself loudly, What a tragedy, both the defendant and the defense attorney are the same person.
"..." Chi Tong's gaze was like needles, which made Eric's heart ache.
"There is a large piece of sky ahead without island clouds, so we can't get there." Chiron, who had seen the golden clock with clairvoyance before, said: "But here, I believe you have also seen the huge, shining golden clock. .”
In the distance, although part of it is covered with moss, it still cannot block its shining golden light. The sunlight reflected by the golden clock is dyed golden.
"..." Uncle Lizitou choked up again: "This is the golden bell where our ancestor Wen Bulan Nolando and his friends witnessed the friendship!"
[Temporary task one has been completed. Reward obtained: 3 bond points/golden bell has been stored in the inventory]
Eric was overjoyed, pretending to be paralyzed, and carefully looked at the [Golden Clock] in his inventory. The bell was ten meters high, the outer ring at the bottom was ten meters in diameter, the wall of the clock was one meter thick, and the pendulum inside was a cylinder with a diameter of one meter. , as if drawing a CAD drawing, with various lengths shown on it - it dazzled Eric, and at the same time aroused Eric's wanton mood: 'Have you made your hair... huh? Why only the Golden Clock? And there are no two golden pillars supporting the golden clock? '
[The mission reward states that it is for the Golden Clock, not the Golden Clock Tower]
'Okay, I don't plan to sell it anyway. When the time comes to establish my own country, I will set up this golden bell on the top of my country and treat it as a national treasure. 'Eric didn't dare to scold the system secretly anymore, after all, the system could hear him - this was considered a scolding in person, but after the scolding, he would be unlucky.
"What are you thinking about?" Chitong, who has been with Eric for a long time, is very familiar with this. Eric is in a daze or thinking about something if he doesn't talk or change his expression for a long time.
"It's nothing. If you think about it, this is really a trick of fate." Eric, whose thoughts were interrupted, could only change the topic.
"How to say?"
"It's just that when Nolando left Shandorla and came back from the North Sea, Gaya Island was washed up into the sky by the sky current. As a result, he was regarded as a big liar and was executed. But I think this result may be good..."
"Why do you say that?" Kulikai had already stopped crying and asked in confusion, but he was not angry.
"Because the king at that time did not let Nolando's companions go with him, but took the king and the king's soldiers with him. Uncle, do you understand what this means?" Eric asked Kulikai.
"..." Kulikai was speechless.
"It is estimated that if the king really arrives in Shandorla, the Golden Land, then his soldiers may turn into pirates and bandits, killing and plundering, and the friendship between Kalgara and Wenbulan Nolandu may also break up. Even at that time The king's soldiers may not be strong enough, but don't underestimate human desires. Sooner or later, Shandorla, the Golden Land, will be destroyed by human desires, and the people of Shandia may also become extinct."
"...It's true, alas." Uncle Lizitou sighed and lit a cigarette. 'It's not like it's an afterthought, what are you smoking? '
"So, uncle, do you want to join us?" Eric's sudden words made Uncle Chestnut Head drop the cigarette from his mouth.
"...Don't be ridiculous, kid, how can I, an old man, join a team of young people like you?"
"Age is not a problem, but your friends have left you. It doesn't matter if you join us temporarily. If you want to leave, you can leave at any time. I am here to give you a prophecy - in four or five years, there will be two ape-men I will follow you to the death. Before that, please join us! Isn’t it very romantic to travel with young people like us? What kind of man is it to be coy?" Eric stretched out his right hand.
"...Hahaha, for this reason I have to agree. Well, please give me some advice in the meantime, Captain!" Kulikai also extended his right hand, and the two held hands tightly.
