Chapter 687
“The Great Waterfall.”
Although everyone was confused, even the Matriarch did not know who Nagar was. Fortunately, she
knew that Nagar lived in the Great Waterfall.
Nagar, the Patron Saint of the Third Island, lived in the Great Waterfall.
“As soon as we entered the swamp, we heard the sound of water rushing down from a waterfall.” –
Gary still remembered the sound clearly. Although he didn’t see it with his own eyes, he was sure that
only a waterfall could make such a sound.
But they didn’t see any waterfalls along the way.
Everyone looked at Raphael in unison. “The Scepter you want is at the waterfall. Think about where it
is.” Crabbie teased gloatingly.
But Raphael’s expression was serious. He asked back, “are you sure that you heard the sound of a
waterfall?”
Hearing this, Gary and the others immediately understood that Raphael had never encountered a
waterfall on the Third Island
Without hesitation, Patrick immediately took out the map. Although the geographical location of the
map had changed, it could offer some guidance.
Indeed, they found something on the map.
“This sign should refer to the waterfall.” On the map, there is a high mountain and a watermark.
Alan said, “Mr. Hopkins, this map is wrong.”
“Since the Matriarch said that Nagar is an ancient legend and is as old as this map, peshaps Nagar is
still hidden here.”
Raphael didn’t object to what he said. They didn’t have any clear direction, so why not take chance?
So they packed up and began to look for the Great Waterfall according to the guidance of the map.
Because of the continuous rain before, the ground became very soft and muddy. For safety reasons,
they all held a bayonet or a long gun as a walking stick.
The Matriarch was old. She was gradually tired after walking for two hours with the team in the
mountains. Patrick was leading a careless troop that did not know how to respect the old. The
Matriarch was left alone at the end of the team.
Charles noticed that. He pushed Christina and said, “Ask Samba to carry his mother.”
Christina turned around and saw that the Matriarch was panting as she walked. Christina ran overnovelbin
quickly.
Not knowing if it was because of Christina’s kindness, the Matriarch handed Christina the part of
Scepter that she had been holding tightly. Christina was shocked for a long time. “Thank you.”
She thanked the Matriarch for her trust.
The Matriarch also taught Christina to combine the two parts of the Scepter. It turned out that there was
a small mechanism embedded in every one-third of the Scepter. Once combined, the two-thirds
Scepter was nearly 1.5 meters long.
If it weren’t for the fear that the Matriarch and Raphael would disagree, Christina wanted to use this
thing as a walking stick. It was too long to carry.
The Matriarch shook her head at her. “When we get to the Holy Land, it will walk.”
Although Christina still felt awkward listening to the Matriarch’s words, she got the general meaning.
The Matriarch told her not to separate the combined Scepter. If they got to the “Holy land”, the Scepter
will find its place by itself.
Just like before, the Scepter in her hand suddenly flew up, and then they found the hidden
mountainside. The mountainside with murals of cultural relics was indeed a holy land.
Christina was a little excited. It turned out that the combination of these two parts could help find the
key ruins.
She guessed that Raphael definitely didn’t know about it, and she didn’t intend to tell that bastard.
Christina called Samba over and let Samba carry his mother on his shoulder. Charles ran over to join.
“Oh, this Scepter is probably more than two meters in its original shape. Now only the top part is
missing. It must be quite imposing.”
Christina swung the Scepter around like a detector, trying to see if it had found anything. Unfortunately,
the Scepter did not react. It was conceivable that they were far from where they wanted to go.
They walked and stopped all the way. At noon, although the weather today was not sunny, there were a
few rays of sunlight shining through the thin clouds.
Under the bright light, there was a swift river rushed and meandered down just in front of them.
“According to the map, the lower reach of this river is the Great Waterfall we are looking for.’ Patrick
stood still and looked around.
Normally, they would walk down the river bank.
However, the soil on both sides of the river was soft and full of tall water plants, just like the swamp
they met at the beginning, which frightened them.
“Let’s go on a raft this time.” Gary was still afraid of the big fish they met in the swamp.
Alan did not go across the swamp at that time and was not afraid. He retorted, “If it is the Great
Waterfall under this river, our rafts will be washed down by the current, and we can’t control them at all.
Then wouldn’t we die?”
Crabbie looked at the swamp, shivered, and told Alan expressionlessly, “I would rather be washed
down by the waterfall.” ,
The swamp gave them a sinister and terrifying feeling, and it was full of dense and tall water grass. If
they got in, they might accidentally sink down and feed the fish.
All of their team members were extreme sports masters, and they used to dive and surf In the deep
sea.
Alan still disagreed. “We have the old, the sick, and the disabled.”
“I’m not going to the swamp anyway.”
W
They could not come to a conclusion. Under the harsh living environment, the choice would decide
whether they lived or died.
And people were most likely to diverge, suspect, and infight under such circumstances.
“Make a raft, we’ll take the waterway.” Patrick thought for a while and said to them.
The rest muttered in a low voice, not daring to have any objections, and went to cut down the tree
obediently.
The obedience of the members to Patrick surprised Samba. He secretly made up his mind to be a
person like Patrick. This “little guy” was really smart.
In Samba’s opinion, only powerful people would be followed. And Samba thought that “powerful” meant
to come up with many smart ideas like the Human Cub. In this field, Samba felt a little inferior.
The torrential river in front of them just separated the big swamp Into two parts. The river was clear and
the long river course was not blocked by dense water grass. “According to the map, we are more than
20 kilometers away from the location of the Great Waterfall, so we take the river course.” If there was a
special situation, then they would make a plan.
Crabble and Gary tied up the raft fast.
If they had to walk more than 20 kllometers in the swamp, it would really kill them.
There were a total of 21 people, not including Earl, the cat. So they needed at least two large rafts.
They also cut
4 thick and long tree trunks to support the rafts and to control the direction.
In less than two hours, the rafts were finished, and they pushed them into the water.
Knowing that it was dangerous, they were still a little excited and shouted, “Let’s go!”
Christina was a good swimmer. But when she jumped onto the raft, she felt a little unbalanced. At first,
she thought that she was not used to standing on the raft. Patrick noticed and looked at her.
She immediately stood straight and pretended to be fine. She didn’t want to cause any trouble for them
at this time.
However, as the raft went down the water, Christina felt more and more unsteady. She simply sat
down, and at
this moment, the Scepter in her backpack shook.
Christina was dumbfounded.
Before she could react, she watched the two precious parts of the Scepter fly into the river.
