The system invites me to be the boss

Chapter 146
According to the information provided by Li Tianqin, the desperate ball where Zhou Xinyao's parents had an accident appeared in the sea in the east of Huaxia, number 0136.

This is the 136th Desperate Ball that has appeared on Earth.

Jian Rui marked the positions of all the imperiled balls in history on the world map, and then based on the known positions of the imperiled entrances, he quickly deduced the location of No. 0136 imperiled ball in the impasse.

It is more than 5 kilometers away from the base, and it is more than 2 kilometers away from the place where they went to fish for cultivation beads before. From the map of the impasse, it is also located on the surface of the imperiled sea.

After confirming the location, Jian Rui arranged things in the base, and took Zhou Xinyao on the double-headed eagle to set off.

After more than two days of flying, they finally came to the vicinity of No. 136 Desperate Ball.

On the nearby coast, they found tents that had been abandoned here a few years earlier.

Jian Rui took out the desperate map, checked the direction a little, and said, "The direction we found the metal piece is to the east, so I think we have been searching in this direction, hoping to find some clues."

Zhou Xinyao nodded slightly, but felt inexplicably grateful in her heart.

Although she has now found her parents' starting point and has a direction, but the territory of imperil is so vast, and her parents' exploration route is very likely to be related to the sea of ​​imperil.

The chances of finding the clues they left behind more than five years ago are slim.

"Thank you."

"You don't have to thank me," Jian Rui smiled, "Let's go, before it gets dark."

According to Jian Rui's calculation, Zhou Xinyao's parents should have moved east along the coastline.

He summoned Brother Hip from the company, let Zhou Xinyao ride a double-headed eagle, and divided himself into three routes, carefully searching the coastline for several kilometers.

All kinds of battles, traces of life, etc., may be forgotten. The only hope now is to see if they can find the tents and backpacks they left behind.

Creatures in Extremis are not interested in these things, and there is no strong wind and rain in Extremis, so as long as these things are still there, traces will definitely be found.

After searching for more than half a month and traveling more than 1 kilometers, several people concentrated all their energy every day, for fear of missing any clues.

But to everyone's disappointment, they didn't find any useful clues.

Not to mention tents and salutes, I didn't even see a plastic bag wrapping paper.

And this distance has far exceeded the exploration range of the awakened people at that time.

According to Jian Rui's understanding, even if Tianqin was a 5-star team five years ago, its maximum exploration range would not exceed 4 kilometers.

Because at that time, the desperate ball would only appear for about 14 days before disappearing, so exceeding this distance meant that it was impossible to leave the desperate situation before the desperate ball was closed.

So it stands to reason that Zhou Xinyao's parents would not go this far.

This made Zhou Xinyao struggle in her heart, wondering if she should continue to search.

It's not reconciled not to look for her, but if you continue to look for her, the chances are slim.

"Captain, why don't you go back, I will stay and look for it slowly."

"It's too dangerous for you alone." Jian Rui shook his head and said, "Besides, we've already come here, so we have to persevere no matter what."

"But……"

"No need, you rest first, I'll take a look around."

As Jian Rui said, he jumped on the back of the double-headed eagle, let it fly as high as possible, and then circled within a range of dozens of kilometers.

The hard work paid off, and before the nightfall of the impasse, he faintly saw a small black spot on the surface of the impenetrable sea.

He immediately flew over there with the double-headed eagle, and the black dot gradually became clear.

is a small island.

This was the first time he had seen an island in the Impassable Sea, and he had never even heard of it before.

This oval-shaped island is small in area, more than ten square kilometers at most. It has rugged rocks, no desperate plants, and no desperate beasts.

So Jian Rui flew down by himself, searched carefully on the island, and soon found a cave close to the coast.

The stones outside the entrance of the cave are covered with traces of swords.

Finally found it?

Jian Rui summoned Brother Thought, and the two of them came outside the cave.

Judging from the traces of swords on the rock, there was a fierce fight here, and the sword marks were dense, and it seemed that the battle was quite fierce.

The sword marks extended from the entrance of the cave to the seaside, and finally disappeared.

But Jian Rui looked at all the traces, and there was no claw mark of the Extremis Beast, indicating that this was a battle between humans.

Who would be fighting this far away?

But there is nothing on this island, so it is impossible to grab resources.

And 5 years ago, even the Awakened Association didn't have a small boat that could float on the desperate sea.

At that time, as long as the entrance was at sea, the only way to rely on awakened people with a 6-star rating or above was to bring people over bit by bit.

And this island is at least thirty or forty kilometers away from the coast, how did these people come here?
With these questions in mind, Jian Rui took Brother Siwei into the wide cave.

It's not very deep inside, it's very wide.

But apart from the dust all over the floor, Jian Rui only found a few food packaging bags in the crevices of the corners.

He sent the double-headed eagle back and brought Zhou Xinyao and Brother Hip over.

Brother Hip is indeed an experienced combat expert. After a little inspection, he came to some conclusions.

"Two 5-stars, fighting against two 4-stars," Brother Hip said, "This is a duel of unequal strength, and the result can be imagined."

"What about the time?"

"It's hard to say, but it's at least a few years old."

When Zhou Xinyao heard this, she bit her lips until she was about to bleed.

Her parents were both 4-star back then, so it is very likely that they were slaughtered here.

"It can be basically confirmed now that uncles and aunts are in trouble here."

In the history of Tianqin, it was only this time that it lost two 4-stars at the same time.

Zhou Xinyao's eyes were red and her whole body was trembling: "Who did it?"

"Don't worry, let me think about it first."

The most people who fought here were 5 stars, but there were no small boats that could float in the impenetrable sea at that time, so the first question, how did they come to this island?
Maybe it was brought here by someone with 6 stars.

This is a possibility, but it does not rule out that someone else has mastered the technology of the small boat, and they came here by boat.

Because after No. 136 Desperate Ball, the No. 139 American Desperation, the Awakened Association launched the small boat technology. If it is not a coincidence, then a possibility can be roughly inferred.

Zhou Xinyao's parents' team had already mastered the sailing technology on the desperate sea at that time, and this technology was discovered, which led to being robbed and silenced.

But the problem is that the island is so barren that it doesn't even have the most basic ores.

Moreover, it is so far away from the entrance, and there is more than 90% chance that they will not be able to make it back. What is the reason why they are willing to risk their lives to come here?

Is it the bottom of the sea?
Zhou Xinyao's parents had fished practice beads, and they were of a very large size, which could not be obtained near the sea.

Since they have the experience of exploring the seabed, it is very likely that they came to this island to explore the seabed.

But that doesn't hold true either.

No one would risk his life to explore the bottom of the sea.

But this was the only clue that could be traced in front of him. Jian Rui decided to go to the seabed around the island to have a look.

"You stay here for the time being," Jian Rui said, "Brother Sixiang and I will go to the sea to see if we can find something useful."

"Captain, you have to be careful."

Jian Rui smiled and nodded, then put on the oxygen supplies, and went down into the seawater with Brother Sixiang.

The seabed around the island was peaceful, and all that could be seen was the sediment deposited.

This made Jian Rui feel extremely abnormal.

The island is thirty to forty kilometers away from the coastline. According to the situation in other places, there are at least 3-star desperate creatures infested.

Even if there are not a large number of desperate creatures, there will definitely be seabed plants.

But the area around this small island was like a barren desert, with no seaweed at all.

After searching around the island, the two found no clues. Just as they were about to go ashore, dense energy fluctuations suddenly appeared within the range of perception.

It is a desperate creature, and there are many, densely packed!
3-star, 4-star, and even 5-star are swimming here.

This is a fish with an ugly big mouth, with sharp teeth exposed, and sharp scales all over its body. It is not easy to mess with at first sight.

However, they seem to have no eyes, their speed is not very fast, and their perception is not very keen.

But they are like a group of extremely hungry army ants, while swimming, they open their ugly big mouths, biting things on the bottom of the sea.

As long as it is something that can be eaten, it will be eaten clean by them.

Wherever it passes, it can be said that not a blade of grass grows, and not a single tile is left.

Seeing them eating, Jian Rui was completely disappointed.

There are such a group of things on the bottom of the sea, even if there are clues left, they may have been eaten up by them long ago.

Maybe the bodies of Zhou Xinyao's parents were put into the belly of these things, and then they were taken to a place far away from here.

He led Brother Si to cling to the rocks of the island, quietly watching the group of strange fish swim by not far away.

This is a large school of fish, at least several kilometers long, and the number is at least tens of thousands.

Moreover, the higher the level of the strange fish was, the last ones were more than 20 meters long, and they seemed to have reached 6 stars.

One of them was the largest, with only half of its tail. Its body was crooked when swimming, and it looked a little ridiculous. It should have been bitten off when it was fighting with other desperate creatures.

However, such a large group can already run rampant offshore.

I was thinking about catching a few secretly, and when I went back to study it, I suddenly saw a few strange fish pulling a rope in the mud turned up by the fish.

Although it had been bitten to pieces, Jian Rui recognized it immediately, it was the rope on the tent!
