Chapter 235 Sleeping in the Ancient Town
The wind howled, the lightning thundered, and the rain poured down with the momentum of drowning the world.
Wow!
A sloop broke through the rain curtain and rushed out.
"Phew! It's finally out."
A smile appeared on Robin's face: "The ship almost broke and everyone died!"
Aoki said: "Don't say that the ship is broken, even if it is broken into pieces, the people will not die."
While the two were talking, the boat rushed out of the area covered by dark clouds, and the bright sunshine shone down, making everyone feel warm all over.
"I wonder how far it is?"
Aoki raised his wrist and was about to confirm whether the direction had shifted again when he suddenly stopped.
Robin shouted: "Aoki, there is an island below!"
"I saw!"
"is it here?"
"It should be right."
The boat came to the sky above the island and slowly stopped.
Robin's eyes turned: "It's a little different from what the captain said, this place is not deserted."
There are obvious traces of human activities in Suigu Town.
Aoki was not surprised.
“He should have come here several years ago. Such a large island with already existing infrastructure will definitely attract people to settle here.
Let's go down and have a look! "
The boat beneath them disappeared, and the two people's figures flashed and appeared on the coast, walking side by side inside.
Walking on the path covered with weeds, Robin looked around with interest.
"These architectural ruins are at least a hundred years old!"
Aoki said: "The history of Sleeping Ancient Town is quite long."
Robin suddenly took a few steps forward quickly, squatted down in front of a stone tablet half buried in the soil, and carefully wiped off the dust on it.
Aoki looked down.
Wipe off the dust on the surface to reveal several squares of text underneath.
He asked in surprise: "Is this a historical text?"
Robin observed carefully for a while, shook his head and said: "No, although it is somewhat similar, this is not a historical text, but the text of the Kingdom of Mosta that perished about four hundred years ago.
Records about Mosta have almost completely disappeared, and I have only seen a brief introduction in a book. Unexpectedly, I saw the text of the Kingdom of Mosta here. "
As she spoke, she took out a notebook from her backpack and wrote down quickly.
Aoki looked at it for a moment and then looked away.
He couldn't understand them, and unlike Robin, he could feel their charm.
At this time.
His expression changed and he looked towards the path ahead.
Two men holding spears came slowly from the opposite side.
Seeing Aoki and Robin, their faces all changed.
"Who are you?"
Robin was startled awake, glanced at the two of them, and returned his attention to the stone tablet.
Aoki explained: "This is an archaeologist from Xihai. We heard that there are many historical sites here and came here because of them.
I heard that Suigu Town has been abandoned for a long time. Are you? "
Both of them were a little excited.
"How did you get here?"
"Come by boat."
"Is the boat still on the shore now?"
Aoki shook his head.
One of the men with a high forehead ran quickly towards the coast. After a while, he returned with a disappointed look on his face.
"You made a very wrong decision. It's easy to come, but not so easy to leave."
"Why? What happened here?"
Aoki asked.
The man with the tall forehead did not answer, but looked at Robin: "What is she doing?"
"This stone tablet is related to the former Kingdom of Mosta. She is sorting out the information."
Aoki said.
The man with the high forehead stood in awe.
Meanwhile, Robin put away his notebook and stood up.
"Has it been recorded?" Aoki asked.
Robin shook his head, with a hint of regret on his face: "It was too damaged. No valuable information was obtained. It can only be kept as a collection."
Aoki comforted him: "Don't worry, the most indispensable thing on this island is probably various historical relics."
"Please come with us!" Gaofou said.
Under their leadership, Aoki and Robin entered Sleeping Town.
There are still traces of desolation inside. Obviously, these people have not lived here for a long time.
After a brief briefing, Gao Fou led Aoki and Robin into a courtyard, where several people were sitting, and they all looked towards the two.
Aoki couldn't help but look at the woman in the first place.
She has long red hair, a delicate face, a round waist, and surprisingly large breasts, forming an incredible figure.
However, there was no trace of charm or enchantment in her body. Instead, she exuded an iron-blooded temperament, giving people the first impression that she was a female general who had been killed from a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
"Nice to meet you, my name is Alice!" The red-haired woman held out her palm.
"My name is Aoki, and this is Robin."
When Aoki is simple, he uses his real name.
The title "Dragon King" has spread all over the world with the promotion of World Economic News.
But the name "Aoki" is still unknown.
As for Robin.
Although she is somewhat famous, it is only limited to the West Sea. Apart from that, aside from some interested people, most people don't know who she is when they hear her name.
Moreover, Robin used the Thousand Genius Mask to change his appearance, making him look much more mature than his real age.
Even if you have heard of her name, it is almost impossible to associate her identity with her name.
Alice asked: "I heard Adlet say that you are archaeologists?"
Aoki said: "Only Robin is."
"Archaeologists, how exactly do they work..."
After exchanging a few words, Alice's expression became solemn.
"I have some unfortunate news for you. Soon, a group of pirates will attack here."
Aoki asked: "How do you know what's going to happen in the future?"
"Because those pirates were attracted to us!"
Alice didn't hide anything: "We fled here and planned to repair it temporarily, but we didn't expect that the traces would have been exposed long ago.
While we were on shore for reconnaissance, the enemy suddenly attacked and destroyed our ship.
Although we tried our best to kill some of the enemies, some still escaped, and they will definitely return with reinforcements. "
Aoki nodded slightly.
Not a complicated story.
Alice added: "But don't worry, the enemy may be attracted by us, and we will do our best to protect your safety.
In addition, we are seizing the time to build a new ship. If we can succeed before the pirates arrive, we will definitely let you leave first. "
"Thank you so much, General!"
Aoki said.
This statement is still impeccable.
The two parties were not familiar with each other, and Aoki had no intention of inquiring into each other's secrets, so he quickly said goodbye to Robin and left.
The two stood on the slope.
"Next, let's get down to business!"
The most important thing is to find the phantom beast devil fruit here as soon as possible.
