CHAPTER 3102 STRANGE
“Let's move further inland and see.” After saying that, Jared led Cloud and Quinley deeper into the island.
Although the island was located deep within the Night Sea. its environment was unexpectedly picturesque. The lush trees provided ample shade, and the air was incredibly fresh, forming a stark contrast to the dark expanse of the Night Sea
Furthermore, birds occasionally flew overhead while chirping pleasantly, prompting Jared to wonder in curiosity, Have these birds been surviving on this all the while? After all, this island is entirely surrounded by the Night Sea, and the nearest mainland is likely thousands of kilometers away. Without any place for the birds to rest, the journey seems nearly impossible.
While venturing further into the island, Jared extended his spiritual sense to scan their surroundings within several miles. If there were anyone nearby. he would detect them immediately.
Meanwhile, deep within the island, six people sat in a circle under a massive tree several meters thick. Among them was a middle-aged man with a face marked by hardship and melancholy.
That person was none other than Cloud's father and Stellaris Sect's leader, Renault Seizon. They had been left stranded on the island since their spirit ship capsized.
“Old Mr. Seizon, we shouldn't wander anymore. This island is too strange. Too many of our men have gone missing. and we've completely lost contact with them.”
“That's right. We shouldn't walk aimlessly anymore. We started with over a dozen members in our party, but the number decreased as we traveled. Some of us just mysteriously disappeared without any of us realizing.”
“How scary! This island is terrifying.” The few Stellaris Sect disciples were overwhelmed by fear, no longer daring to move unnecessarily.
Renault also knitted his brows, seemingly lost in thought. This island is indeed bizarre. Originally, over a dozen disciples swam to this island with me, yet since we came ashore, they kept inexplicably disappearing one after another. Not to mention, there haven't been any fights or sightings of demon beasts, so no one knows where these missing disciples went. Are they lost or kidnapped?
Renault was caught between a rock and a hard place at that moment. If they stayed put under the tree, even though they didn't need food and water and wouldn't die, they might be trapped on the island forever.
Whenever he thought of Cosmic Sect ambushing them, rage churned within him. I can't just wait for my death in this place!
"We cannotremain trapped here. We need to keep moving and find a way off thisi8land. Let's find something to tie ourselves to each other this time=!m sure no one will getlost if we-do this,” Renault said firmly.
Upon hearing that, the remaining Stellaris Sect disciples became panic-stricken
“Old Mr. Seizon, we beg you. Please don't wander around any further. It's too scary!”
“There's only so few of us left. If we keep moving, everyone might disappear!”
“We'd rather be trapped here than continue wandering.”
The Stellaris Sect disciples desperately pleaded with Renault, expressing their reluctance to continue exploring the island
Instead of living in dread and fear of vanishing, the disciples would rather be stuck in place.Material © .
Renault furrowed his brows at their cowardice. Although they were disciples x of Stellaris Sect and were» supposed to obey his commands- unconditionally, he fathomed they werecurrently experiencing &

Therefore, their refusal to comply with his orders was understandable.
‘In that case, you all wait here while scout the-nearby area. I'll send you a message every ten minutes. If you don Chear from me, all of youwill be On. ‘your own then.” Content. belongs t6 -
Renault decided to venture out on his own, not willing to sit by idly and wait for death. At that point, the few Stellaris Sect disciples didn't dare speak further and could only pray for Renault's safety.
However, just as Renault was about to take his leave, his body suddenly stiffened. He stood rooted to his spot as if paralyzed.
