I am the Pope in the Western Fantasy World

Chapter 201 Situation on the Island

"Besides you, are there other people on this island?"

Phil Gray asked patiently again.

"There are many more people. There are about 100,000 native residents on our island, and some people also accidentally stranded here." This person actually understood again and finally gave some useful information.

"There are so many people. That doesn't make sense. If we just rely on robbing the food brought by outsiders, we shouldn't be able to feed so many people." Eli asked in confusion.

"What is your usual source of food?" Phil Gray asked curiously.

The man pursed his lips and said sadly, "We also eat Abyssal Wheat, Rockworms, etc. People who accidentally come to this island may not bring food with them, and we may not win a fight with them. Sometimes vicious pirates accidentally land on the island, and we will become their food. However, after many years, people who accidentally come here will be assimilated by us, and no one knows whether their ancestors are from outside."

"Abyss wheat, it sounds like it can be grown without sunlight. It seems you are lucky."

Eli sighed.

"No, wheat was brought here a hundred years ago. In addition to wheat, that person also sent some useful supplies every ten years. It was also in the past hundred years that we have so many people. In the past long time, we relied on eating rockworms and the people who wandered here to survive."

"What? Someone can come in and out as they please?"

You know, even the followers of the God of Descend can’t get out. Could it be that the person’s level is higher than that of the God of Descend?

"Well, he wore a dark purple cape, and everyone called him the savior, but he never talked to us much. He would just put the supplies in the center of the island and leave."

"When will he come to deliver supplies next time? Don't you want to know how he left? Didn't you ever think of asking him to take you out before?" After hearing this, Valk Dodd asked with some doubt.

"The next time will be in twenty days." The man counted on his fingers, "The savior said that he can only come in and out of here by himself, and he can't take anyone out."

Phil Gray thought for a moment and asked, "As far as you know, has anyone successfully left over the years?"

"No one has ever left." He shook his head. "The longest-living outsider is fifty-year-old Yao. He has been here for thirty years and has not found a way out. He is too old and will soon die. There is only one leader left among the outsiders. Before long, they will give up the idea of ​​leaving. The temple will make them swear to join our island and work together for the survival of our descendants."

As he spoke, he glanced at them cautiously again, "But since you are so powerful, the outsider faction may prosper for many more years."

"We won't stay here." Valk Dodd's face turned pale.

"The temple?" asked Phil Gray.

On an island with so many people, there must be a force that holds power, and it seems to be the temple that this person mentioned.

"The temple is in the center of the island, a little far from here. The temple is responsible for distributing materials on the island and passing on knowledge. One of us can be selected from every 100 people to receive education in the temple. I have also been to the temple before, so I can speak the language of the outside world, but they have never been there, so they can only roughly understand what you are saying. People like me will be sent to various places on the island to manage other people after learning some basic knowledge."

They were all very surprised when they heard this. They didn't expect that these islanders with deformed bodies and almost beast-like bodies could be organized in this way. It was enough to show that they had made great efforts to survive.

"I see. Then what god is enshrined in your temple?"

"Sun God, we worship the Sun God, He will come back! We are not abandoned! Dawn, we want light!"

This person stared at them with fanatical eyes, looking at the light of their divine power greedily like everyone else.

Come on, I don’t know why these people go crazy when Chenxi is mentioned.

As for the sun god, he should be called the daytime prophet.

But believing in the sun in a dark place, the believers here are really sad!

No matter what, these people are also believers of Chenxi, so Chenxi certainly can't just sit back and watch. Elder Ge Lan frowned, thinking hard about how to get out and whether it is possible to let people outside come to rescue them. Unfortunately, he seemed to have no clue at all.

"What do we do next?" Martin asked.

"To the temple."

"To the temple."

Phil Gray and Elder Grant said in unison.

Currently, there is no information about getting out, and the only savior who can get out will not arrive until twenty days later. They certainly cannot sit and wait for death.

"By the way, what's your name? How do we get to the temple from here? We want to go take a look."

Phil Gray waited until the man calmed down a lot before asking.

"My name is Bin. The temple is in the center of the island, very far from here. You have to follow the direction indicated by the stone marker. Are you really from Dawn?" His eyes were fixed on the crowd, devout and eager, even incredibly eager, as if he had seen a god.

Even when he mentioned the savior who had brought them real benefits, he was not so excited.

"Yeah, this light can't be fake, right?" Phil Gray smiled, wiping away the strange feeling in his heart.

"Yes, that's right. Only people from the Dawn can bring light. No problem. I'll take you to the temple right now!" Bin said excitedly.

He chattered to the other islanders in a language they couldn't understand, then turned and left. Although it was dark, his figure was very fast.

It seems that they have evolved to be able to see in the dark.

Phil Gray and his group hurried to follow.

The stone cairns that Bing mentioned were a unique way of pointing the way on the island. They had not noticed them before and thought they were some useless gravel, but in fact, their slightly polished and slightly sharp ends all pointed in one direction.

For most of the islanders who are illiterate and sometimes have poor eyesight, this is the only way for them to know the direction of the temple and that they are organized.

They walked for about an afternoon, and according to Bin they had only walked less than one-fifth of the distance.

On the one hand, the island was really big, and without sunlight, their Pegasus horses were very weak and even walked with a limp, not to mention that there were a group of savages following them, staring at their sturdy thighs and drooling. The knights could not waste their divine power at will and had to keep it for lighting and dealing with emergencies.

On the other hand, they met many islanders along the way, and they had to stop and explain every time, which doubled the length of the team.

After all, Chenxi's team is like a lamp in the darkness, as conspicuous as it can be.

Phil Gray estimated that after walking for another day, he used the excuse of going to the toilet and quietly came to an open space far away from the team.

It's not that there is any conspiracy, but he had made an agreement with Frank before, and it's time to call him out.

"Undead companion..."

The black fog was not clear in the darkness, and even the door to the abyss was not clear.

"Huh? Why are you still in the abyss? I haven't come out yet?" Frank scratched his head and muttered in confusion.

It wasn't until he saw Phil Gray that he felt relieved, "Hey, why did you ask me out at night this time?"

Phil Gray had a faint smile on his lips.

"This is not night. There is no sun here, day or night."

"Ah? Isn't this the abyss? No, this isn't the abyss either." Frank looked around and asked, "Is this an independent space?"

Phil Gray shook his head, told Frank their story, and asked him if he knew how to get out of here.

Mr. Frank was a member of the Light of Wisdom during his lifetime. He was knowledgeable and perhaps he might have a solution.

"This island can only be entered but not exited, and it can also block the entire sky, making it difficult for the sun's rays to enter. I'm afraid only gods can have such power?" Frank analyzed.

As he said that, he looked at Phil Gray speechlessly again, "But, tell me why, you always summon me in such strange places, either in the City of Light, or in places like this, aren't we in conflict?"

"No way, didn't we agree to meet in three days? If I didn't summon you, wouldn't you be even angrier or more uneasy?" Phil Gray was also helpless. Who could have thought that he would end up here.
