578 Historical Mystery

The Six-tailed Crocodile found the clothes on this small cruise ship.

Lu Benwei and Chu Yan boarded the ship. Four skeletons were found in one of the cabins.

They were obviously a family of four, and their bodies had long rotted. Chu Yan’s gentle touch broke one of them into pieces.

“I’m sorry! No offense! I’ve sinned, I’ve sinned. May God bless your souls in heaven!”

Chu Yan put her palms together and devoutly prayed for the souls of this family.

There were canned food and drinking water on the floor, and the words on the label were blurred.

Lu Benwei rummaged around but could not find any useful information. He sighed helplessly.

“How is it? Any clues?” Chu Yan asked faintly.

“My initial judgment is that this family might have starved to death,” Lu Benwei shook his head and said.

“Why don’t they go out and eat?” the crocodile found a mirror and proudly looked into it while asking indifferently.

“We have to ask the monsters gathered on this island, the House Fog Monster Clan.”

“This island is so big. Where are we going to find them?” The crocodile curled his lips.

“It’s just right behind you.” Lu Benwei protected Chu Yan behind him and took out the Ancient Sword of Clarity.

At this moment, the crocodile was still looking in the mirror. When he heard Lu Benwei’s words, his expression instantly froze.

Then, ripples appeared in the space behind him, and a figure was faintly discernible. The crocodile was so scared that he almost peed his pants. His legs creaked and trembled.

The House Fog Monsters had appeared! Their heads occupied one-third of their bodies, but their torsos were very thin, and their limbs were long. Their body proportions were so out of sync that their thin bodies could not support their limbs and heads. They could only droop.

Moreover, the hair on their heads only grew on one side, covering one side of their eyes. The other side emitted a strange green light. They looked ghastly and terrifying, scaring the crocodile so much that his body and spirit trembled.

“How did you find me?” the House Fog Monster spoke in human language and said sinisterly.

“From the moment I found the crocodile, I felt that there was something unclean behind me. It’s a pity that this fog is blocking one of my abilities, so I can’t see you.” A faint smile hung on Lu Benwei’s lips.

Then, the green light in the House Fog Monster’s eyes flickered with anger as he said, “But in the cabin, there was no fog. You saw through me immediately? Is that so?”

“Not only that, but my companion also saw through you at the first moment.”

“Is that so?” The Room Fog Monster glanced at the dizzy crocodile and stared straight at Chu Yan.

“Since you can observe me, it means that I’m not your match.”

Lu Benwei was slightly surprised. This Home Fog Monster knew how to analyze the pros and cons.

“If that’s the case, then he who understands the situation is a wise man. Answer a few of my questions!” Lu Benwei said coldly. His eyes emitted cold electricity, staring at the House Fog Monster until its heart thumped.

“First, when did this ship arrive?”

“It’s probably been more than a hundred years now.” The Room Fog Monster said sinisterly. His eyes emitted a strange green light that made people shudder.

“Over a hundred years!”

Lu Benwei was not surprised by this answer.

More than a hundred years ago, such a ship appeared. Ever since the start of the class change era, the development of technology was mainly to assist hunters.

Civil technology was developing at a tortoise-like speed. Therefore, ships from a hundred years ago were still in use today.

Lu Benwei did not get the answer he wanted and asked again, “How did this family of four come to this island?”

“I don’t know.” The House Fog Monster shrugged.

“Anyway, according to the clansmen, that afternoon, they heard a rumble and saw them.”

“And then?” Lu Benwei asked.

“Then, we sent down the fog of mystery and trapped them here.”

“The family of four hid in the cabin and didn’t go out. Later, we tried to lure them out, but they didn’t appreciate it until they starved to death here.”

Lu Benwei sighed. When he checked the four corpses, he found bite marks on the bigger skeleton.

At the last moment, his parents begged the heavens to leave hope for their two children to live and let them eat their own flesh. Unfortunately, his wish was not fulfilled in the end. The two children were still trapped here and died.

“Then you just let them be? Aren’t you monsters? At least give them a quick death!” Chu Yan shouted. It was too cruel for a family of four to starve to death.

The House Fog Monster shook his head. “They are ordinary people. They aren’t a threat to us. Besides, we can’t understand what they are saying. Let them fend for themselves.”

“Wait? You don’t understand?”

Lu Benwei and Chu Yan both had doubts.

“Yeah, I don’t understand. My parents met them and talked to them.” The House Fog Monster narrowed its eyes, and a trace of disgust flashed in its dark green eyes. “They said that this family of four is talking in some kind of bird language. When they chirp, it’s like chanting scriptures. It’s so annoying.”

Lu Benwei was shocked.

In the early years, the languages of the monsters were all strange. It was very inconvenient for different races to communicate, so they learned the language of the Dragon Kingdom.

The Dragon Kingdom had fought with the monsters for a thousand years. As the information quotient of the Dragon Kingdom’s language was high, a word could express many meanings.

Hundreds of years ago, the monster clans had learned the language of the Dragon Kingdom.

Now, the House Fog Monster said that this family of four did not speak the Dragon Kingdom’s language. Could it be another alien race?

“Then do you know what they look like?” Lu Benwei asked again.

The House Fog Monster shook its head, its green eyes sparkling. “I don’t know. I heard it from the elders in the clan.”

“Has anyone in your clan seen them before?”

“Unfortunately, just a week ago, the last clansman who saw them was annihilated,” the House Fog Monster said regretfully.

“Alright, thank you for telling me this.” Lu Benwei thanked the monster.

At this moment, the House Fog Monster stuck out its long and thin tongue and licked its teeth. “You’re welcome! If you want to thank me, then stay with them!”

Lu Benwei had expected this and said, “Crocodile!”

“Alright!”

With a swoosh, the crocodile stood up from the ground and slapped out. Golden light flashed on its body, and divine power erupted together!

“Puff!”

With a palm strike, the Six-tailed Crocodile smashed half of the body of the House Fog Monster, and black blood flowed out.

The House Fog Monster took a few steps back, and a cold light bloomed in its green eyes. “Do you think that I’m the only one in this space?”

As soon as it finished speaking, seventy to eighty House Fog Monsters slowly appeared!
