Dark Rises of the Elves

Chapter 289 Returning to the Trial Island [Seeking Monthly Ticket Subscription] (24)

Having finished what was supposed to be said, Kage and Aoki fell silent again.

Under Ying's gesture, Aoki picked up the teacup and took a sip slowly.

In fact, Aoki likes tea and coffee very much.

That kind of bitterness at first, then the bitterness gradually faded away, and a faint sweetness appeared in the mouth.

The sharp contrast between sweetness and bitterness can highlight its true taste.

Aoki doesn't care about tea or coffee, he just likes the aftertaste after drinking it, unlike people like Ying who pay attention to tea ceremony.

Aoki drank the tea in the cup in one gulp, and the bitterness in his mouth became more and more intense.

Ying shook his head and poured another cup for Aoki.

It is also rare for Aoki to make a heavenly king-level powerhouse pour water.

"It's a bit of a waste for you to drink this kind of good tea." Ying said lightly, a little sighed, and more sighed.

The hand holding the teacup paused slightly, and Aoki said with a smile, "For me, what kind of tea, what kind of tea ceremony is not important, what is important is that the more bitter the tea, the stronger the aftertaste at the end."

Tasting tea, Ying was stunned, what Aoki said didn't sound like someone his age said, even though he had experienced more than the average peers, but it didn't sound like what his age said.

Without keeping the two of them waiting for long, the boat sailed away.

Originally, Ying was waiting for Aoki's arrival, but now Aoki has arrived, although their boatswain has been sent for emergency treatment due to excessive blood loss, but the boatswain is not very important, is it?

Just do it for someone else.

Team Rocket's cargo ship was still unremarkable. It headed for Trial Island according to a special route. The ship was loaded with various supplies.

...

In a luxurious room, there is a thin middle-aged man, looking at the video phone on the wall, propping his head with one hand, listening to the report of his subordinates.

If Aoki was here, he might be able to recognize that the person in the video call was the captain who had appeared on the freighter before.

I saw that he was very respectful now, telling what happened before, word for word.

After listening to the report, the thin middle-aged man said with a smile, "So, you, the captain and the squadron leader, failed to find out the details of that kid, and you were crippled for nothing?"

He had a smile on his face when he spoke, but no one would think that he smiled happily when he saw it.

Suddenly, a lot of sweat appeared on the face of the captain.

Then immediately said what Ying said exactly.

"Oh? I heard that he failed the last mission and his strength was seriously damaged.

If it was before, I would still respect him three points, but now... I will only know after playing. "

According to the strength division of Tianwang class, Ying's strength is much stronger than him, but the last time Ying's strength was greatly damaged, no one knows the specific strength now.

"Forget it, it's nothing interesting, you go tell that stinky boy, if this trial doesn't get the result I want, go to the Death Warriors team, and let him be the first in the next war with the alliance."

"Yes!" The team leader quickly wiped the sweat from his forehead and said.

Now it is a dead friend who is not dead.

The video call was turned off, but the thin middle-aged man's expression became gloomy, "Shadow Group, do you still think it's the former Shadow Group?"

...

Two days later.

Team Rocket's freighter has successfully arrived at Trial Island.

During the past two days, except for the beginning when Aoki and Ying were sitting together drinking tea, the rest of the time was in their own room tinkering with things that might be used on the trial island.

The first thing is to prepare for the subordinates that Aoki subdued on the trial island before.

After leaving for such a long time, I don't know how many people still follow me.

In other words, Aoki doesn't know how many people really follow him, and he doesn't want to find out.

It's just that after leaving Trial Island this time, those who choose to follow themselves, no matter what their plans were before, must choose to be loyal to themselves in the future. This is the standard Aoki set for these people.

And the things he fiddled with in the room were also related to this purpose.

I didn't see Ying again for two days, and when Aoki got off the boat, I didn't see him either.

Maybe, after Aoki boarded the boat, Ying had already left.

Do you still need to take a boat all the time for a king-level powerhouse?

Maybe not.

He ignored Ying's disappearance.

Aoki stepped on this bloody muddy land, and a mixed smell mixed with stench and mud came over his face.

Here is the trial island.

If you look from the outside, you can't actually see the whole picture of Trial Island. To say that it is an island, it is better to say that it is a small land, because Aoki still doesn't know how deep Trial Island is.

But being able to draw such an unknown place on the sea, I have to say that the Rockets are very strong.

It is also possible that the place can only be reached by taking the exclusive ship of Team Rocket.

Because there were no windows in the cabin when Aoki came, and after actually sailing into the sea, Aoki was told that he was not allowed to leave his room, and he could only leave his room until he was about to arrive.

So I don't know how to come to this place, and how to leave, Aoki only has a general direction.

The Rockets protect this place very closely.

The sailors were busy carrying the goods, but no one paid any attention to Aoki.

Just like that, Aoki quietly returned to the trial island, and there was only one day left before the end of the three-month trial.

The Dark Crow stood on Aoki's shoulders, walked on the still somewhat familiar land, and slowly walked towards the rocket's base.

There was no one on the way.

In the original base of 300 people, there may not even be 100 people now.

In his previous life, Aoki didn't temporarily leave the island, so he experienced the cruelty of the trial island all the way, and he also knew that the later stage, the bloodier it would be.

Walk through the familiar ridge-length passage, and enter the square of the base again.

There was still a pitch-black trial stone standing in the middle of the square. It was no longer shiny, but was stained with some blood, but no one cleaned it.

The temporary battlefield where Aoki and Gu Jia fought is still there, but the blood that has dried up can be seen everywhere.

From this, one can imagine how cruel the Trial Island will be in the following time.

Aoki just glanced at it, not caring about the smell of blood, and strolled towards the temporary building built by Gu Jia and his men.

After entering the base, he still didn't see anyone, which made Aoki a little surprised.

No matter how many people died, there wouldn't be many people in the Rockets' base, right?

Do poisonous snakes just ignore it?

Slowly, Aoki understood that it was not because there were no one left, but because the final trial was about to begin tomorrow, so these people had no intention of fighting each other, and returned to their own forces to fight for the last chance of survival .

Those who can qualify are recharging their energy, while those who cannot qualify are frantically looking for thighs that can take them alive.
