Chapter 78: Gradually getting to know the protagonists of Skull Island
Mark invited James and his group to go to the Iwi tribe’s base.
Because since the Dragon God disappeared for more than 20 years, the skeleton lizards hiding underground have become restless again.
In 1945, the Dragon God led King Kong and other giant beasts to completely defeat the Skeleton Monitor Lizard, forcing it to hide underground and dare not come out. Skull Island ushered in a rare period of peace. Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. With the complete disappearance of the Dragon God, the remaining King Kong could not suppress the Skeleton Monitor Lizard.
James and others who were listening to Mark's words were full of questions, but they did not ask immediately.
"By the way, what's the situation in the outside world now? What was the outcome of that battle? Are we still fighting? Did we win?"
On the way to the Iwi tribe's base, Mark asked everyone again, he was very curious about the current situation in the outside world, especially the results of World War II.
"We won the war. We won it the year after you crashed and came here. But now our country is in a cold war with Mao Country."
Weaver Mason replied.
"It's good as long as we win, but what does this cold war mean? Does it mean that we won't fight when it's hot, but will fight when it's cold?"
Mark was relieved at first when he heard that World War II was won, but then he couldn't help but feel puzzled when he heard about the Cold War.
puff--!
Weaver Mason and others almost couldn't hold back their laughter when they heard this. After they briefly explained the meaning of the Cold War to Mark, Mark finally understood.
"It seems that the outside world is not peaceful either."
Mark couldn't help but smile and shook his head when he heard it.
"By the way, how did you get here?"
"We are an exploration team."
Weaver Mason and his group also told Mark their identities, purposes, and experiences.
After hearing this, Mark felt a little gloating.
To be honest, he felt very uncomfortable when Weaver and his team carried out large-scale bombing after arriving at Skull Island.
After all, he has lived here for so many years and has always been taken care of by the Iwi people. Deep down in his heart, Mark has long regarded Skull Island as his temporary or even second home.
As a result, Weaver and his group came up and bombed him, so he had no idea he was happy.
However, after learning that it was mainly Bill Randa's order, Mark no longer had any hostility towards them and just spoke.
"Your biggest mistake was bombing the island as soon as you arrived. Otherwise, King Kong would not attack you because King Kong is not hostile to humans and is even very friendly to us humans."
"Do you know that giant beast?"
Upon hearing this, Weaver and his group immediately looked at Mark.
"Of course I know him. Besides, there are more monsters on this island than just King Kong. There are many more that you haven't seen yet."
"There are other giant beasts!"
Weaver and his group felt a little confused after hearing what Mark said.
One King Kong almost wiped out their entire exploration team, and now there are more.
"Come on, I'll take you to a place where you can know the specific situation on the island."
Mark took Weaver and others to the temple of the Iwi tribe.
"here it is?"
"The temple of the Iwi people."
"Temple, they have gods they believe in, primitive worship?"
Then a shout was made and people saw the pictures on the temple murals.
There are mainly three creatures on the mural. The largest creature in the middle looks like a snake, but its head looks like a dragon.
Lin Shan and Brooks couldn't help but stare at the creature with a dragon head and a snake body on the mural.
Because the creature in the picture looks very much like the Monster No. 3 Dragon that they saw from the Imperial Organization, but there is some difference, that is, the creature in the mural does not have the pair of dragon claws of Monster No. 3 Dragon.
Perhaps it is a monster similar to Monster No. 3 Dragon.
The two couldn't help but guess in their hearts.
The creature with a dragon head and a snake body on the mural was exactly Han Feng.
The other two creatures on both sides of Han Feng were King Kong and Skeleton Giant Lizard. "The Iwi tribe believes in it?!"
James and others also recognized King Kong on the mural at a glance.
"Its name is King Kong. It is the original god worshipped by the Iwi people and the patron saint of Skull Island. The Iwi people and I are alive and well today thanks to it. For it, Skull Island is also its home. As soon as you came to the island, you bombarded and destroyed it. It was merciful that it did not kill you all."
Mark said.
He didn't think there was anything wrong with King Kong attacking Weaver and the other exploration teams. After all, if there was anything wrong, it was Weaver and the other exploration teams who were impolite in the first place and started to cause trouble.
Weaver and the others knew that they were in the wrong and did not say much on this issue. They looked at the other pictures of Han Feng and the skeleton lizard and asked.
"What about the other two? They are also gods worshipped by the Iwi people."
"One of them is and the other isn't."
"The creature in the middle that looks like an oriental dragon is another god worshipped by the Iwi people. It is revered as the divine dragon by the Iwi people and is also the supreme god worshipped by the Iwi people. Its status is even higher than King Kong. At the same time, it is also the most powerful creature on Skull Island. Even King Kong is just its subordinate. Moreover, it is still growing, just like King Kong today."
Mark knew that Han Feng and King Kong were still growing. After all, he had seen their sizes increase with his own eyes.
"What about the last one?"
"The Skeleton Giant Lizards are also called Skeleton Demons by the Iwi people. They are also the most terrifying creatures on this island. They are cruel and bloodthirsty. Only the Shenlong can completely defeat them. King Kong can only barely fight against them, but if they encounter the largest King Kong, they can only run away. Only the Shenlong can deal with them."
"You should be thankful that you didn't encounter such a horrible thing on the road. Believe me, you definitely wouldn't want to encounter it."
Mark looked at Weaver and others seriously.
Several people did not comment on Mark's words. They did not think that the Skeleton Giant Lizard was any more terrifying than King Kong. After all, they were all giant beasts that could easily crush them to death.
"And the earthquake bomb you just dropped will be the stupidest thing you do after you land on the island, because you will blow up these horrible things."
"In 1945, these skeleton monitor lizards were defeated by Shenlong, King Kong and other creatures and forced into their underground nests. They dared not come out, but Shenlong disappeared later. As time went by, these skeleton monitor lizards began to get restless and wanted to come out. As a result, you bombed them this time."
At this point, Mark spread his hands helplessly to the others. He knew it very well.
Because of the long disappearance of the dragon over the years, the skeleton monitor lizard has been eager to crawl out of its underground nest.
As a result, now that it has been bombed by the exploration team, there is no doubt that the skeleton monitor lizards will be forced out. Once the skeleton monitor lizards are forced out and find that Han Feng is not on the island, the consequences will be extremely serious.
After hearing what Mark said, Weaver and his group felt heavy in their hearts.
"Do you know of any routes to the North Coast?"
At this time, James, who had been silent, opened his mouth and asked the question that everyone in the team was most concerned about.
Mark also laughed when he heard this.
"You guys want to leave here. Coincidentally, I also want to leave here. It seems we can cooperate."
"It's a pleasure to work with you. We need you."
Upon hearing this, James immediately stretched out his hand and shook hands with Mark, because he knew that their journey would be much easier if they had someone like Mark who had lived here for 28 years to lead the way.
After the two parties reached a cooperation agreement, they began to take action.
There happened to be a rotten ship by the river near the Iwi tribe’s residence, which should have been a ship that accidentally entered Skull Island.
Although the boat was already in tatters, the engine and other parts were still there, and there was still oil. If the engine could be repaired, they could use this broken boat to go along the river to the north bank, which would be much safer.
So the group immediately began to work together to try to repair the engine.
On the other side, Bill Randa, Packard and others went to the west of Skull Island.
Because before, Packard and others contacted a surviving member of the Fox Hunting Team, who was located to the west of Skull Island.
So Bill Randa, Packard and his team headed west to Skull Island.
But when Bill Randa, Packard and his team arrived at the location of the survivors, there was no trace of the people except for a pool of blood on the ground. It was obvious that they were in great danger, and they couldn't even find the ferocious beast.
Then when the group passed through a bamboo forest, they encountered a giant bamboo spider, and the team was reduced in number again.
Compared with the situation of the protagonist group, the experience of Bill Randa and Packard's team can be described as full of disasters.
At the same time, in the waters outside the Skull Island storm, a huge dragon slowly emerged from the sea.
