The lone wolf of Freyrdrand

: Island of the Dead

Lothar carried his body and followed behind the little girl.

He has never had such a strange feeling in his life, that his soul is actually carrying his body.

“But I’ve seen another version of me… This one should be better in comparison…” Lothar thought, looking at the little girl bouncing left and right on the rocks and ruins in front of her.

The scenery on the Shadow Island is the same, nothing more than random graves and abandoned houses. Even the trees are all barren and bare. After walking for so long, Lothar didn’t see a single tree with leaves.

Usually there should be many weeds and beasts in such a desolate place, but Lothar didn’t find any of them. Except for the ghost who has been following him and chanting his name, the island seems to have nothing moving.

“Little brother! Hurry up!” The little girl suddenly disappeared in front of Lothar.

She puffed up her face and said angrily, “Walk so slowly! Slower than a living corpse with a broken leg! Believe it or not, I’m ignoring you!”

“If you think I’m walking slowly, you can leave.” Lothar said.

“That’s not okay, little brother, you just came back, you must be very unfamiliar with everything on the island!” The little girl patted Losa, “Let my sister explain it to you!”

Lothar looked down at the little girl. She reminded him of another girl with colored hair who called herself “sister” to Lothar.

“Then tell me why this island is called Blessed Island, why do these ghosts keep saying my name, I have never been here before, why do you say that I am back, can I go back to my body? You are trying to take me Where are you going?” Lothar spit out a series of questions.

The little girl looked at Lothar with dissatisfaction. Her dark green eyes seemed to have a frightening magic power: “Little brother, you have a lot of questions. You will know all about it when you see him.”

“Who is he?”

“Come with me.” The little girl is like a ghost, no, she was a ghost in the first place, floating in front of Lothar, “There is still a long way to go, if you get lost, my sister will leave you alone!”

Lothar sighed, he felt that he was involved in some trouble again.

His body was heavy on his shoulders, and Lothar felt that everything he did in the spirit state was more laborious than when he had a physical body, and he couldn’t use any magic in the spirit state, although the ghosts didn’t use it because Lothar now He couldn’t use magic to attack him, but Lothar really didn’t know how to protect himself like this, and the little girl refused to put his soul back into his body, so he could only follow her.

The last time Lothar’s soul came out of his body was when he was a child, and he was beaten half to death by the crazy yordle Gnar. Fortunately, the girl with colorful hair helped him put his soul back.

In addition, Lothar knows nothing about souls, Freljord has no belief in “souls”, and Ionia has similar “spirits” legends, but they are limited to vague ones. It’s just a story.

So Lothar doesn’t know what kind of situation he is in now, whether he is weak or strong. He can only follow the little girl, and don’t be knocked out of his wits when he encounters something he shouldn’t touch when he walks alone.

As they reached the depths of the island, the ghost that had been haunting Lothar finally stopped. It seemed that there was something they were afraid of inside the island. They stopped in place, reluctantly calling out Lothar’s name.

“How on earth did they know my name…” Lothar didn’t feel any resentment towards the ghosts, but left their ears much clearer.

“They are the weakest guys on the island.” The little girl smiled strangely, “Jie Jie Jie, a group of guys who can only touch things in the material realm when they get together. It’s really sad.”

“Material Realm” Lothar raised his head, “You know the physical realm”

“It’s not a big secret. Many people know about it.” The little girl grabbed a dry tree vine, swung it to a solitary grave, and stepped on it with her bare feet.

“Is there a difference between strength and weakness among souls?” Lothar tried to get some information from the little girl.

“Of course, stones can be big or small.” The little girl sat down on the solitary grave, swinging her legs and waiting for Lothar to follow her, “The weakest ghosts can’t touch any matter, and even the slightest wind blows them.” Difficult, unless there are enough gatherings, it will not be able to affect everything in the physical realm.”

“Then you and I are relatively strong souls.” Lothar looked at the heavy body on his shoulders.

“Of course, sister, I am very powerful, I don’t know how many stupid guys who broke into the island have been killed, jie jie jie…”

“You killed someone…” Lothar didn’t feel surprised for some reason. Although the little girl was well-behaved, she didn’t give Lothar the feeling that she was a kind person.

“Of course, the living are disgusting.” The little girl made a disgusted expression. “It’s better to die, death is the best! Yay! You’d better throw away your body, the breath of life stinks.”

Lothar ignored the little girl’s request: “So you just… killed me?”

“No, your body is so strange, Smelly life force is too much, I can’t kill you. The little girl looked depressed, “So I just took your soul out of your body, your body is still alive, of course, if your soul is too far away from your body, you will still die.” ”

Lothar touched the pulse of the body on his shoulders, and it was indeed still beating: “Can I go back?”

“As long as you know the method, you can return to your physical body at any time.”

“How to do it”

“I won’t tell you!” The little girl stuck out her tongue at Lothar, then ran forward with a strange smile.

“It’s really not cute…” Lothar thought to himself.

The further you go to the depths of the island, the worse the environment becomes.

The black mist covering the entire island became more and more intense, and the visibility plummeted. Lothar had to keep up with the little girl so as not to let her disappear from sight.

But the strange thing is that the ominous black mist is getting thicker and thicker, but Lothar feels more and more comfortable, as if the black mist is the air that nourishes him.

“Is it because I became a spirit body?” Lothar asked, “What are these black mist?”

“Isn’t it very fragrant?” The little girl took a deep breath and said intoxicatedly, “Fuguang Island is the best. There is no black fog outside the island. I really don’t know how people outside can endure it.”

“It seems that this black mist is very good for the soul…” Lothar also took a deep breath. He really felt much more comfortable, and even his weak strength after becoming a spirit body recovered a bit.

The thicker the black mist, the bigger and stronger the entrenched spirit bodies. Lothar also saw many strange-looking spirit bodies. Some of them were bigger than the top of the mountain, some wore strange ancient costumes, and some They were fighting each other, and almost everyone was talking crazy and delirious.

But they have one thing in common—when Lothar walked past them, they would all call out Lothar’s name.

“Did I really come here before?” Lothar himself began to be unsure, “No, Laluen clearly said that all my memories have been restored, so it’s impossible for me not to remember…”

The black mist covered the sky, and Lothar couldn’t judge the passage of time. He felt that he had walked with the little girl for a long time, but because the black mist was getting thicker and thicker, he didn’t feel very tired. Instead, he walked more and more energetically.

In the depths of the island, there are not only the concentration of black mist and the strength of the soul, but also buildings.

There are many abandoned buildings, so incomplete that they can no longer see their original appearance, not even a single wall is intact, but judging from the details, the workmanship of these buildings is not rough, at least compared to those in Bilgewater Houses built indiscriminately are much more refined.

“Did there used to be a city here?” Lothar climbed over a broken wall.

The little girl didn’t answer. She just floated past a house and disappeared before Lothar’s eyes.

Lothar hurried to follow, because Lothar couldn’t pass through the wall like a little girl with his body on his back.

Turning around the corner, Lothar saw a square.

Section 248

The square is already very dilapidated, and the stone road is broken like mud.

The little girl was floating in the square. Below her were countless wraiths howling in pain. They were singing music without lyrics in unison, and their voices were dull and piercing.

“This is…” Lothar slowly walked into the square. The grievances continued to sing as if they hadn’t seen Lothar.

At the end of the square, there is a small building that looks like a church.

“Jie Jie Jie…” the little girl smiled, “He’s inside, you go in.”

Lothar stepped up the steps and walked into the church. He wanted to see who the “he” who met him in the little girl’s mouth was.

Lothar heard a mournful hum.

The inside of the church is not much better than the outside, it is still a dilapidated scene, lifeless.

A man-like spirit body stood there, facing Lothar, as if waiting for a long time.

His face was extremely withered, he was wearing a heavy teaching robe, he held a very long staff in his left hand, and a book in his right hand.

“That book…” Lothar’s eyes were fixed. The book in the man’s hand was the one Nami gave him. It was suspected to be the secret treasure of the Three Kings.

“Hello, Lothar.” The man spoke, his voice was ethereal and unreal, as if it came from afar, “Long time no see.”

“I’ve never seen you.” Lothar looked at the man warily.

“Oh, it was my mistake.” The man said apologetically, but his face was too dry, and the dark green skin was clinging to his skull, so there was no change in his expression at all, “You were too young at that time, Not remembering me is normal.”

“Too young.” Lothar was startled. “You know my background.”

“Of course, dear Lothar.” The man smiled. Although he couldn’t see it on his face, he seemed to be smiling from his tone. “I hugged you when you were still a baby.”

“Hug me!” Lothar’s heart shook wildly, “Who the hell are you!”

“Oh, please forgive me for not introducing myself yet.” The man bowed slightly and whispered in his own nihilistic voice, “My name is Karthus.”

Many documents have described a mysterious island called “Shadow Island”. It is said that it is a place where the dead gather, and ghosts who are not willing to die wander there. life.

However, the authenticity of this island is still in doubt, because there is no chart showing its location in detail. Even the most experienced sailors in Bilgewater only know to go to Shadow Island, and just drive southeast.

I decided to find out, pleaseStay tuned for receipts and heroics as I travel to this mysterious Shadow Isle.

Thanks to the “Wright Museum” and “The Morgans’ Hair Spray Shop” for sponsoring my expedition.
