Chapter 448 The Island of the End

The person in front of him was tall and tall, but his face was ugly and ferocious.

In the cracked mouth, there was a mouthful of rotten yellow teeth, the blood-stained long knife in his hand, and the head on the ground made the opponent look murderous.

But Qin Ran looked at him calmly.

Not only because his own strength is sufficient to cope with the immediate crisis, but also because the other party has 'shown' clues.

The seemingly murderous opponent has no real killing intent!

Even if he was stared directly at him like this, Qin Ran didn't feel the pain like a glow on his back.

Simply put, the other party is putting on airs.

As for why?

The Trial of the Temple!

Apart from this answer, Kieran couldn't think of anything else.

"Did the trial begin as soon as I boarded the ship?"

"So……"

"Is that part of it too?"

Qin Ran looked at the head next to his feet, and Ai Xinde grinned, obviously in pain before he died.

If it was really a trial, Ai Xinde would naturally not die.

Even those who fell into the water before are likely to be part of the trial.

However, the blood spilling from the head is real.

On this point, Kieran would not make a mistake by relying only on his sense of smell.

And the head itself?

The moment Qin Ran picked it up and touched it with his fingers, he could tell the truth from the fake.

"Is it made of clay?"

Qin Ran asked in surprise.

When the other party threw his head just now, he didn't handle it lightly. With the hardness of the clay after being fired, it should have been broken into pieces when he was thrown like that.

Obviously, something special has been added to it.

"When did you find out?"

When Qin Ran checked his head, the aggressive intruder put down the blood-stained long knife helplessly, and looked at Qin Ran with puzzled eyes.

And that voice was Ai Xinde!

Having been discovered, there is no need to cover up. Ai Xinde got rid of the disguise on his body, and after resuming the appearance of the previous meeting, he couldn't help asking: "Where did I have a flaw?"

In fact, as the examiner of the first trial, Essinde thought he had done a good enough job.

Whether it is the timing or the configuration of props, it should be seamless.

Other deceived testers are also sufficient to illustrate this point.

But Qin Ran...

Although he felt that Qin Ran was not easy to handle before, so he did it himself, but he didn't expect that he still messed up.

"There is no killing intent, the murderous aura is false."

"Can you tell me what's going on here now?"

Although he guessed most of it, Kieran still hoped to hear the complete ins and outs.

"As soon as you boarded the ship, the trial began—let me introduce you again, Isinde, the first-time examiner of the trial!"

Shrugging, Ai Xinde introduced himself again.

However, instead of reaching out his hand like last time, he bowed with the ancient knight salute.

"2567."

Kieran stood up straight and responded with appropriate etiquette.

"The famous 'Death Bird' and 'Flame Demon' are more powerful than I imagined."

"congratulations!"

"As the only person on the boat who discovered my flaw, you passed the test!"

Aisinde said with a smile.

"Finding a flaw is the condition for passing the level?"

Qin Ran asked.

"of course not!"

"Brave, justice, wisdom, and compassion, as long as you have a little bit of them, you will pass the test!"

"However, it's a pity that the testers who are on the same boat as you don't have these—they are indifferent, unwilling to lend a helping hand to the hard-working sailors on board, and lack real bravery! If there are not enough benefits, They will only be a group of cowards, and when more interests appear, they will be completely confused!"

Aisinde shook his head.

"Just a little bit of it?"

Although I don't know much about the Holy Knights in the temple, according to Kieran's guess, it shouldn't be such a simple 'possession of a little'.

"If it was hundreds of years ago, all four points must be available, but now..."

"The church has gone through a history of 1,500 years. It has not been affected by the 'fault' not only because it is remote, but also because it has enough resilience!"

When Ai Xinde said this sentence, he did not have a proud expression.

It was a kind of helplessness mixed with embarrassment.

But Qin Ran could tell that the other party still had a little bit of concealment.

However, Qin Ran wisely did not ask further questions.

If he asked in his current capacity, he would definitely not get any useful information, and it would make the seemingly good conversation between the two parties at the moment as embarrassing as the other party's expression.

Therefore, Qin Ran changed the subject directly.

"Can you tell me about this trial?"

"Besides the title of a reserve knight, Boyle didn't tell me anything more."

Qin Ran asked what he most wanted to know.

"certainly!"

"As a passer of the first test, 2567, you have the right to know everything you can know now - we will set off again soon, and we will arrive at the island of trials at sunset tomorrow, which is what people often call the island of the end! There, You will face further tests!"

Aisinde said so.

Immediately, Qin Ran raised his eyebrows.

"That's all I can know now?"

Qin Ran accentuated his pronunciation to emphasize whether the other party had neglected anything.

After all, the other party's words are almost the same as if they didn't say anything.

"Yes."

"All you know is this!"

"Actually, I don't know what the next trial will be, even as the examiner of the initial test, but I can give you a personal suggestion. It is best to get enough energy before landing on the island of the end tomorrow!"

Ai Xinde said very seriously.

But without explaining more, he got up and picked up the 'head' and walked out.

As the door closed, Qin Ran was left alone in the cabin again.

He frowned slightly thinking.

Kieran was dubious about Essinde's words "Even as the examiner of the first test, I don't know".

Because this is contradictory to the private advice given by the other party.

However, it does not mean that the other party is lying.

It is also possible that the other party gave him hints based on previous years of experience.

But no matter what the other party said was true or not, Kieran knew that the next step was the highlight.

What's in front of me is just an appetizer.

"Island of the End?"

Qin Ran muttered this ominous name in a low voice.

And the boat moved again.

Moving forward at a speed several times faster than before.

Apparently, Eshinde, who has completed the mission, doesn't need to pretend anymore.

The ship moved forward at full speed.

The night passes and the sun rises.

Then, when it was about to fall again, a small island appeared in front of the ship.

Under the afterglow of the setting sun, the ice surface and the small island covered by ice and snow were all dyed red, as if it was burning, but also like blood.

But Qin Ran, who had been waiting on the deck for a long time, looking at the small island in front of him, changed his expression.

A person who should not have appeared appeared in his field of vision.
