Chapter 298: One Tiger One Man One Bow

Su Jin now realized the full extent of these worshippers abilities. If he still had his old powers, he would be able to defeat them in a fight. But besides himself, probably only Chu Yi might hold up in a fight with these people. The rest of his team members were probably going to lose even if they fought them one on one.

As for the food they brought back, Su Jin wasnt going to let it go to waste. Given that he had an ordinary body now, he was going to have a lot of issues if he didnt eat for three days in a row. He wouldnt starve to death, but he would definitely become very weak. If he ran into danger at that point, he wouldnt be able to defend himself at all.

Thankfully, these monsters actually tasted pretty good. Once they were cooked, they tasted no different from pork and beef.

After he was done drinking and eating, he got the five of them to accompany him on his journey. These worshippers treated Su Jin as a real envoy of their god and believed everything he said.

Before getting trapped on this island, these guys were probably very important people. The leader said that the Demon Lord had knighted him before, so that was probably some ceremony to ordain him or something. He was some very high ranking person in the order, thought Su Jin.

His target destination was still the beach. This time, he had five people who could make even a monster like the dead qilin turn around and run, so he was in much safer hands now. But even so, he dared not be careless.

Do you guys know this island well? asked Su Jin.

The leader replied, Nobody can know this island well, because it keeps changing.

It keeps changing? What do you mean? asked Su Jin immediately. He felt like there was very important information he needed to know.

The leader was honest and said, Because strange monsters or dangerous items are constantly being sent here. If the islands area was fixed, the island would reach a point where it becomes too full. But this island is an island that can grow.

An island that can grow? Su Jin blinked for a moment, then realized what the leader was saying. You mean, every time new monsters or dangerous items get sent here, the island would grow an area specially to house them?

That is correct. Almost everything on this island is dangerous and unstable. If all of us were to be mixed together, we would end up destroying each other. And if the most powerful ones fight, the entire island will sink. Luckily, most stay within their own zone, so weve been able to survive safely until now, explained the leader.

Su Jins heart pounded with fear. Those with the power to destroy an entire island had to be on par with gods like the Demon Lord. He asked again, The most powerful ones? Who who are they?

We dont know either, but I know three of them. One tiger, one man, one bow, piped up another worshipper.

One tiger, one man, one bow? What does that mean? asked Su Jin.

One tiger refers to a monster that resembles a tiger. He calls himself the god of beasts and hes very formidable, so even we shudder in front of him. But he respects boundaries and we will not get attacked as long as we dont enter his territory.

One man refers to the owner of Clomo Asylum, who looks like a clown. Hes also very formidable. Weve witnessed how someone as formidable as a deity got sent to this island and started making trouble from his very first day here. He had killed off nearly half the living creatures on this island, yet the clown had managed to subdue him. After that, the mans screaming could be heard coming out from Clomo Asylum from time to time, and that went on for a good 300 years.

The clown! Su Jins eye twitched a little. He could guess who this clown was. But never in their wildest dreams would these worshippers realize that the clown wasnt someone sent to this island and trapped here. That clown was someone who called the shots around here.

As for one bow, thats referring to Chimimoryo! A look of fear flashed in the worshippers eyes. He seemed very afraid of this bow.

Chimimoryo? Is that the name of the bow? asked Su Jin. The term chimimoryo was a generic term referring to all sorts of ghosts, ghouls, demons, and other evil monsters. It seemed strange that a bow would be called by this name.

Thats a bow that eats ghosts. There are many ghosts wandering about the island, but any that run into Chimimoryo will be swallowed up immediately. A formidable one coveted Chimimoryos power and tried to subdue it, but the moment it came close, Chimimoryo unleashed a lot of monsters on it and swallowed it entirely. Apparently, even the clown of Clomo Asylum dares not go near it, said the leader.

Su Jin nodded. This was something that even the manifestation of the Handbook dared not go near. He was really curious about what this thing could be.

But you dont have to worry. The island hasnt gone through any changes for a long time since the last one, so we are familiar with the territories of the island. At the very least, we wont have trouble avoiding that tiger, man, and bow, the leader consoled Su Jin.

Su Jin nodded to express his gratitude, then continued walking with the five of them. He was hoping to get to the beach as quickly as possible. He might find members of his team there.

The sky over the island had no sun, but the difference between day and night was clear. Once it was night time, the sky would grow dark.

The worshippers worked together to kill a monster that resembled a mammoth. That monster was enormous, yet it moved at an astonishing speed. Also, it gave off a yellow beam of light that fossilized anything it hit, but the formidable five worshippers were still able to kill it. However, even after defeating the monster, they still had looks of dismay on their faces, which puzzled Su Jin.

You guys seem to have noticed something? asked Su Jin.

The five of them exchanged glances, then the leader bowed slightly and said, O great envoy, we seem we seem to have moved away from the path we were originally on.

Huh? Su Jins eyes widened. How? Arent you guys very familiar with the island?

Were very familiar with the island before it changed, and based on the current situation, it looks like the island changed again not too long ago. We dont know why either. The five of them shook their heads helplessly.

But Su Jins heart skipped a beat in horror. Is it because we came to the island? 36 of us came together, so based on the way this island works, it grew 36 new territories?

36 people?! All five of them were shocked. The leader said, Great envoy, if that is true, then Im afraid the island is definitely no longer the way we remember it to be. Our experience is now useless.

Su Jin cursed inwardly, then shook his head. Thats not your fault. I didnt expect things to turn out this way either.

The Island of Mistakes would always grow new territories when something new was sent to the island, but Su Jin thought that since they had been sent here as owners for a Challenge, they wouldnt trigger this change. But he was clearly mistaken. The island did not differentiate between actual mistakes and owners. As long as something new arrived, it would expand itself.

But one thing is for sure as long as we keep going in one direction, we will definitely reach the beach, said one of them confidently.

Su Jin nodded as well. But while that worked in theory, just walking without knowing what was ahead was dangerous. If they ran into monsters, they could turn back or run. But if they walked into the territory of a meme or ghosts, then while the five of them were probably strong enough to fight those off, he was probably going to end up dead first.

While Su Jin was still thinking, a black beam suddenly came shooting toward them and hit the mammoth that the five of them were slicing up. While they were still reeling in shock, a distorted silver glow was sucked out from the mammoths head.

Thats the mammoths consciousness! Su Jin was shocked. The black beam had sucked out the monsters consciousness. Had they run into a monster that targeted the souls and consciousness of others?

Its its Chimimoryo! exclaimed the leader as he took several steps backward.

Su Jins eyes widened as he looked in the same direction as the leader. About 100 steps away, a uniquely designed longbow was suspended in the air. The black beam had extended from its body and it was taking the silver glow back to itself.

The silver glow was struggling like crazy, but that did nothing to help its situation. When the silver glow came near to the bow, ripples appeared on the bow, making it look like a mouth that swallowed the silver glow.

The bow remained in the air for a few moments, as though it was enjoying its meal. Then it suddenly shot into the distance and disappeared.

Phew! Su Jin was relieved, and so were his five companions. The group of five could be seen as beings at the top of the food chain, but this food chain certainly did not include terrifying things like Chimimoryo.

Im so glad Chimimoryo isnt interested in the living, said the leader.

But Su Jin was still puzzled by this whole thing. Psychokinesis was his Spirit Power, and even though he couldnt use it now, he had a greater understanding of it compared to others.

Psychokinesis was the use of ones psyche, an energy that came from ones psyche. Having a psyche meant being alive. Once a living creature died, its psyche would split into two. One would be the physical aspect, which would disappear with the death of the body. The other was the spiritual aspect, or the soul.

The soul and the mind existed together, but it was not the same. The mind helped the soul to think, so once it was gone, the soul would be unable to process thought, which was how we got wandering ghosts.
