Chapter 299 Strange Island
Luke couldn't understand why an Englishman went to Japan to conduct archaeological research.
However, in response to Elika's suggestion, Luke decided to go out for a walk.
He also wanted to know what kind of ancient history Laura was studying in Japan.
Luke flew to Japan with Elika.
Elika learned about Laura's approximate itinerary through Laura's housekeeper.
The two families had originally had a good relationship, so Laura's housekeeper had nothing to hide from Laura's best friend, Elika.
When Luke arrived in Okinawa and got off the plane, he felt the warmth of the Pacific Ocean.
It's much more comfortable than in the UK.
Sure enough, the UK is not a suitable place to live.
Here, Elika found out Laura's last whereabouts through the person introduced by Laura's housekeeper.
Laura, her classmates, a school teacher and another archaeologist had gone out to sea a few days ago.
The exact location is unclear.
Elika had no choice but to return to Luke in frustration and tell him about it.
I wanted to give Laura a surprise, but I didn't expect Laura to run away first...
Luke thought for a while, took out his notebook, and quietly contacted Lilith.
According to the location of Laura's cell phone provided by Lilith, it is located in the sea southeast of Japan.
About 1300 kilometers northwest of Guam.
But yesterday, the signal suddenly disappeared.
Satellite images showed a storm developing around an island there.
But this storm came and went quickly, unlike something that was formed naturally.
Luke also frowned as he looked at the satellite pictures given by Lilith.
According to analysis of the photos, there were no signs of the storm forming.
Moreover, a storm formed around the island in a short period of time.
There are always clouds above the island, making the overall appearance of the island always remain mysterious.
Luke became interested after Lilith retrieved the old satellite images.
There is something wrong with this island.
It is shrouded in clouds all year round, and no satellite image can clearly show the entire picture of the island.
Siren Island is completely invisible, and satellites cannot capture anything in that area except the sea.
But this island has always existed, it is just covered by clouds all year round.
This in itself is abnormal.
You should know that although there are often storms in the Pacific Ocean, they are not as bad as those in the Atlantic Ocean.
Most areas still have regular sunny and windy weather.
Even rainy weather comes and goes quickly.
Unless there is a typhoon, the weather is relatively mild most of the time.
The island is located in the western Pacific Ocean and is itself in a low latitude area.
The weather should be good, but the fog that surrounds the island all year round doesn't look so normal.
So Luke decided to go and see as well.
He asked Uncle Chen to prepare a sailboat for him.
It's the same as when we went to Siren Island.
With sail power, as long as there are enough supplies, the ship can sail forever.
Luke had no shortage of supplies.
Taking Elika with them, they set off.
Elika was still very excited.
I didn't expect Luke to have this skill.
One person operates the sailboat.
There was no rush for this matter. Luke and Elika began to let themselves go in the sea far away from human society...
A week later, Luke approached the island.
From a distance, the sea surrounding the island was covered with dark clouds.
Luke, however, was not worried at all whether the sailboat could withstand the storm.
Are you kidding? I, Luke, the successor of Poseidon Qin, would be afraid of such a storm?
While Elika was marveling at the power of heaven and earth, he quietly used the power of the sea god.
We entered the island peacefully.
When approaching the island, Elika was surprised to find that the island was surrounded by the wreckage of various ships and planes that had run aground on the reefs.
There were particularly many during World War II, followed by various merchant ships and civilian vessels.
All of them were stranded in the sandy reef areas around the island, and hundreds of ships of various types surrounded the island.
There are also many large battleships from World War II.
The scene was as eerie as a ship's graveyard.
When Luke saw this scene, he understood that there was indeed something strange about this island and it was definitely a supernatural event.
Damn, going abroad for vacation and encountering work-related issues...
However, unknown things always arouse people's curiosity, and Luke is no exception.
For Luke's current strength, the unknown often represents not danger but adventure.
The last time I met the mermaid Sirena, I unexpectedly obtained Poseidon's damaged trident.
Hence the power of Poseidon.
Although it has been weakened a lot, it is still very powerful at critical moments.
Just like it is now.
Looking at these ships, we can tell that they encountered a storm when entering the island and were blown to the vicinity of the island and ran aground.
But when Luke came in, he used the power of Poseidon, and it had no effect at all.
Even the wind and waves were much calmer than usual.
Even if the sky is overcast and there are thunder and lightning.
There was no rain, no wind or waves... Luke just drove in...
The only drawback was that upon entering the island, he lost contact with Lilith.
This shows that there is indeed something wrong with this island.
Maybe it's similar to the situation on Siren Island, with some kind of formation protecting it.
But in the small book, Luke is more inclined to believe in supernatural events.
As we all know, there are too many supernatural stories in the little book, and it has a long history.
As for their gods? Luke couldn't think of any powerful ones.
I guess it's more likely to be evil.
But this is a good thing, there must be a big guy staying here.
Otherwise, it would not be possible to have a long-term impact on the weather around the island.
If we kill this thing, I'm sure the rewards will be great.
Luke's Order Points are extremely scarce now. He has spent too many Order Points in developing new materials.
He didn't even dare to use the order points to draw the lottery.
After finding a relatively flat place, Luke let the sailboat run directly onto the beach.
The sea conditions here are very complicated, and the island is surrounded by reefs.
Not only the reefs, but also the wreckage of ships.
Some large steel ships washed up on the beach.
Others are buried on the ocean floor.
If you are not careful, you will run aground.
Even though Luke was driving with his Fiery Eyes on the wheel the entire time, he still drove very carefully.
Fortunately, this sailboat has a shallow draft.
After getting on the beach, you can see that there are many man-made buildings on the island, but they are very old.
It can be seen that most of them are styles from decades ago.
It seems that most of them are left over from World War II.
In addition to dense forests, there are also high mountains in the distance.
This island is huge.
After Luke asked Elika to change her clothes, he also prepared a large backpack.
The small backpack prepared for Elika contained some food and spare clothes.
Then, while Elika wasn't paying attention, he took out a small quadcopter from the space.
He flew out in the surprised eyes of Elika.
"We have to find Laura. Their signal has been lost. They must be on this island too."
After saying that, he showed Elika his cell phone which had no signal.
Elika shrugged.
"As long as I'm with you, I can do anything. You decide."
Luke smiled and put his arm around her waist and walked onto the beach.
Although Elika is clingy, there is one good thing about her: she is really obedient once she is convinced...
Do whatever you are told to do, pose whatever you are told to pose...
