"Li, are you from the Eastern Country?" Conrad asked slowly, seeing the person looking satisfied after eating and drinking.
"That's right, I'm from Shushan!" Li replied casually, sitting on a rock, picking his teeth comfortably, and casually embracing Tian Shan's soft body.
Shushan! Conrad silently made a note of the name, planning to find someone to investigate it later.
He knew that their current relationship was limited to a meal, and the other party clearly possessed amazing power. To survive on this strange island and escape, he would still need the other party's help.
As a wilderness survival expert, Conrad understood the terror of this island better than anyone.
Since this island had a thirty-four-meter-tall giant ape and ten-meter-tall water buffaloes, the other creatures living on this island also definitely couldn't be judged by normal standards.
Just like the wolf-headed monsters that appeared earlier, they actually appeared in groups. If they hadn't been scared away directly by the other party, Conrad admitted that they wouldn't have been enough for those few monsters to eat!
And he also noticed that the clothes Dr. Tian Shan was wearing were an international brand, and judging by the style, they were the latest model.
Not to mention the bicycle she rode and the strange machine she took out earlier, everything indicated that she definitely had a way to enter and leave this island at any time.
It was true that they had arranged to evacuate from the northernmost point of the island with the military in three days, but first of all, it was impossible for them to complete a journey of hundreds of kilometers in three days. Furthermore, whether the military's reinforcements could enter this island was also unknown!
This island was surrounded by a circular storm, and any ship that approached would be destroyed by the thunderstorms. The Fox Flight Squadron was already the most elite helicopter group in the entire U.S. military stationed in Vietnam, and it almost crashed when it passed through the thunderstorm clouds just now.
Not to mention, given the danger of this island, they simply couldn't walk to the meeting point alive!
So Conrad was considering just now, instead of trying to fight for that faint, illusory miracle, it would be better to find a way to get on good terms with the other person.
Although this Li didn't seem like a good person, he had been hanging out in the underground black market all these years and was comfortable interacting with all sorts of people from all walks of life. Naturally, he also knew how to get along with the other person.
"Li, are you here for tourism?" Conrad asked without showing any emotion.
"No, I'm here to eat!" Li didn't care if the other party was trying to get information out of him. His mission this time was to eat. He had been a little worried that his barbecue skills were too poor, but after tasting the other person's cooking, he immediately decided:
He was definitely going to poach this chef!
"Eat?" Not only Conrad, but the other people who were busy all looked at him in surprise, not understanding what he was thinking.
Skull Island was completely isolated from the world, and from the creatures on the island, it was terrifying. Who would be so out of their mind as to come here to eat?
"This is the backyard of my Shushan sect. People come here to eat and relax every once in a while, because there are many delicious things on this island!" Li started to make up a story without a care in the world.
"Your Shushan sect? Li, you can leave here at any time, right?" Conrad keenly discovered the key point in the words and asked excitedly.
"Of course, I just need to summon it! Red Queen, come and say hello to everyone!" Li gently shook his wrist, and the Red Queen's projection immediately appeared in front of everyone.
"Master, what are your orders?" The Red Queen asked, floating in the air.
"It's nothing. Let me introduce you. This is Con… no, this is Conrad, my new chef, and this is Sweetie!" Li pointed at the two of them and said to the Red Queen.
"Understood. The data of both has been recorded!"
"That's all, you can go!"
As the Red Queen disappeared without a trace, the stunned crowd finally reacted.
"What was that?"
"A floating elf?"
"It should be a fairy, right?"
Personal computers hadn't been invented yet. Although science fiction writers had written masterpieces with forward-thinking concepts like artificial intelligence, their works hadn't spread in the current environment. Like some down-and-out painters who were only deified after their deaths, the masses hadn't even considered artificial intelligence.
"Shushan? Elves? Li, was that a spirit of an object just now?" Compared to the bewildered expressions of the clueless Westerners, Tian Shan was at least Chinese and had grown up in Hong Kong. Even if she hadn't seen it, she'd at least heard some wild Xianxia legends, and she immediately understood.
"That's right! Red Queen is my spirit!" Li nodded shamelessly, then abruptly turned to look at Victor.
"I am very displeased with your greed!" Li said to Victor, shaking his head.
Then, Victor suddenly jumped up from the ground, letting out a shrill scream in mid-air.
After hearing Tian Shan's words, the others hadn't reacted much, but this guy named Victor had unleashed powerful evil thoughts and killing intent in his heart.
Although it was unknown what exactly he was thinking, it was likely just killing people and seizing treasures or something like that.
Humans, being such greedy creatures, even if you gave them the switch to the gallows around their own necks, many would still press it without hesitation for immediate gain.
As the on-site supervisor sent by the American government, the fact that Victor was willing to risk his life to enter this isolated island showed that this guy was definitely not afraid of death.
Or rather, as long as the benefits outweighed his psychological limits, death wouldn't be so terrifying in his mind!
Of course, because of the Intent Root, Li wasn't afraid of these guys secretly plotting against him. But why should he bother being polite with such people?
Back in the Mist World, he had to compromise because he wasn't strong enough. But now that he had the power to crush them, why would he be polite?
"Li! What are you doing?" Conrad asked anxiously, watching Victor who was constantly rolling around and wailing.
"Nothing much. This guy's killing intent is too strong; I just don't like him!" Li shook his head indifferently. He had just used his skill to summon the ants around them, and then ordered them to attack the other guy.
His skill could control insects, which was basically useless in modern society.
Because the most common insects in New York were at most cockroaches. Summoning hundreds or thousands of cockroaches, even if they could defeat the enemy, the smell alone would make him sick.
But it was completely different on Skull Island!
The most common creatures on this island were insects, especially since these insects were much larger than those in other places!
Ants the size of your middle finger crawl all over your body, then bite down, one by one. The feeling... don't even get me started on how amazing it is!
