Lei Luo was still unclear about everything that happened on the island. He moved only because he felt that the time had come. Furthermore, he wanted to avoid any possible danger.
He couldn't appear in front of humans for the time being. Otherwise, with the Poison Dragon's identity, he would be pursued by experts who were minimally at the Legendary Realm.
Did the humans come because they had discovered something this time, or were the people back then sending a message asking for help?
Lei Luo thought about these and felt somewhat annoyed.
Suddenly, the merman priest who was swimming ahead vomited blood and fainted.
Shardin and Sharbao, who were leading the way, did not know what to do. They looked at each other in confusion. The first thought that came to their minds was that the priest had been poisoned badly.
Lei Luo narrowed his eyes and slowly walked in front of the merman priest. That bit of poisonous breath could not create such a consequence.
No matter what, the merman priest was still a Level-4 mage. His physique wasn't that weak, and he had antidotes, so he wasn't unconscious.
Numerous thoughts flashed through Lei Luo's mind. He grabbed the arm of the merman priest and was about to flip the priest over to take a look when he suddenly paused.
"The two of you, come over here. Does the Merman Race have a magic array that can be carved using blood?"
Sharbao glanced at the scar on the wrist of the merman priest and pretended not to see it. He explained, "No, but the Merman Race is a branch of the sea beasts. Our blood contains magic power, but it's relatively thin. Occasionally, it can be used as an emergency source of magic power to activate the magic array."
Activate the magic array?
Lei Luo's eyes flashed menacingly as he swiped down with his claws. There were only four crisp sounds as the merman priest's limbs were broken before the priest was thrown at Sharbao.
"Grab him as you travel. It's fine as long as he doesn't die. We have to leave immediately."
The merman priest woke up from the pain. When he saw this, he knew that the truth had been revealed and despair appeared on his face.
However, with his limbs broken, he couldn't even kill himself.
Shardin and Sharbao shrunk their necks and silently led the way.
Lei Luo felt a twinge of regret for bringing the merman priest back to the island. Maybe he shouldn't have embezzled the secret treasure of the Merman Race. However, it had already happened, and there was no point in regretting it. It would be better to stick to his current path, but then he'd have to plan for the worst. If something went wrong, he wouldn't have to scramble.
Fortunately, he moved immediately. The magic array left on the island could attract the humans, and they would not gain anything. Next, he just had to stop the merman priest from carving another magic array.
Once Lei Luo dug up the secret treasure in the merman priest's mind, he would kill the priest!
Lei Luo shook his head and stopped thinking. He swam towards the sea ahead.
By the time night fell, they had already arrived at their destination. It was a very remote island that spanned 30 kilometers. The sea beasts living around it weren't very valuable, so it took a lot of effort for visitors to come here. As a result, very few people came to visit. However, tonight, it would welcome its first master.
"Very good. You two throw the merman priest ashore and go into the water to rest." Lei Luo looked around the island and ordered in satisfaction.
While Shardin was hesitating, Shardin snatched the merman priest and threw him to the shore. He kicked him again before jumping into the sea.
Lei Luo didn't care either. He grabbed the merman priest and carried him to the high ground in the center of the island. This allowed Lei Luo to see the priest as long as his eyes were open.
"You're not allowed to leave this high ground. However, if you want your spine to be broken again, you can give it a try."
After threatening the merman priest, Lei Luo found a comfortable place to lie down and squinted for a nap.
The merman priest, who was lying on the ground, was at a loss. He didn't dare to move. If he flipped over, that vicious Poison Dragon would really break his spine. Even if he went out in the future, he would suffer for the rest of his life.
His arms and legs were broken, but the merman priest still had a way. However, if his spine was broken, he had to ask experts above Level-9 to help him. It wasn't a level he could come into contact with.
After moving to a new place, Lei Luo began to change his lifestyle.
Originally, he would go out every morning to hunt, but the sea beasts in the vicinity were too low-leveled, so he didn't care about them. Meanwhile, sea beasts at Level-3 and above were 200 nautical miles away, and it was too troublesome to go out every day. Thus, he would go out to hunt every three days.
He had just advanced to Level-3, so he could slow down the accumulation of energy.
When he had free time, Lei Luo used it to cultivate the various cultivation techniques and killing methods in his inherited memories. He also studied some escape methods.
All of these were to deal with the crisis that the humans would bring about.
However, after cultivating for a month, he had gotten used to all kinds of methods. His speed of escape was even faster than the crazy speed of a Level-5 sea beast. It could be considered a small accomplishment.
However, the imaginary human siege team never appeared.
"Was my judgment wrong? That shouldn't be the case. Did something go wrong?"
Although Lei Luo was unable to figure out what was going on, he didn't care. Instead, he followed his own pace. It was a good thing that the humans didn't come.
However, he had never relaxed his surveillance on the merman priest. After all, he had caused such a huge crisis for him. How could he not dig up the secret treasures of the Merman Race?
Seeing that his inherited memories were about to appear, Lei Luo muttered in a low voice, "I wonder what the contents of today's inherited memories are. With the Memory Extraction Spell, we don't have to bring around the useless merman priest. Instead, we can bring him back to the Merman Race with a peace of mind."
Recalling how the merman priest had secretly carved a magic array in an attempt to attract the attention of the human nobles, Lei Luo felt a lingering fear.
Not only was he wary of the merman priest, but he was also worried about Shardin and Sharbao. What if they returned to the Merman Race and brought the human experts here?
According to his estimation, the members of the Merman Race should have interacted with the human nobles before, or at least met them once.
Because of these reasons, Lei Luo never let Shardin and Sharbao go back.
He would only release one of them after he obtained the Memory Extraction Spell and confirmed that there were no problems.
He was going to dig out the secret hidden by the merman priest and get rid of this hidden danger!
While Lei Luo was thinking, he glanced at the merman priest on the high ground. Seeing that his body did not move, he closed his eyes to receive his inherited memories.
While Lei Luo was monitoring the merman priest, the merman priest was also secretly observing Lei Luo. He somewhat understood why he was able to live until now, so he had been looking for an opportunity to redraw the magic array these few days. Once the memories in his mind could not be guarded, it would also be the time of his death. Before that, he had to attract humans.
Unfortunately, the Poison Dragon was too cautious. It wouldn't keep him in one place. Instead, it would move him.
As a result, the difficulty of drawing magic arrays rose sharply, and there was no progress until now.
"This damn Poison Dragon is too cautious. Is it really a young dragon?"
"Maybe Shardin and Sharbao did the right thing."
The merman priest looked at Lei Luo in the distance and could not help but let his imagination run wild.
According to the records, the Poison Dragon bloodline wouldn't have very high intelligence when they were young. That was why he spent a lot of effort searching for it. He wanted to slay a dragon, but he didn't expect this Poison Dragon to be so different. It was even more cunning than a human.
It captured its enemy, called its enemy to surrender, changed its residence, hid, and endured. Some adult dragons could not do such things.
However, a Poison Dragon that was only a few years old could.
If its age was converted to human age, it would only be a few months old!
Was it a genius from the Dragon Race?
