Chapter 723

“Christina is imprisoned alone.”

After calming down, they looked at Lucy in confusion. “Why didn’t you save her?”

Lucy lurked beside Mary as a bodyguard for so long. She surely could save Christina.

“You even saved the tiger. How could you leave Christina behind?” Charles said to himself.

White Tiger was also imprisoned by the Chief’s men when its leg was injured. Now, it was much better.

It raised its head high and followed them majestically.

Samba, who was squatting by the river and gulped down the water, suddenly straightened up and

shouted at Lucy fiercely. He was dissatisfied.

“Don’t ask so much!” Lucy glared back angrily.

“Of course, I have my reasons. I don’t need to explain to you.”

At this moment, Patrick silently stared at Lucy’s side face with his dark eyes.

Lucy was nervous and she was trying to figure out how to conceal the fact perfectly. Patrick took

everything that was related to Christina seriously.

Gary and Alan winked at themselves. They all knew a secret very well- Lucy, this strong woman had a

crush on Patrick at the first sight.

Many years ago, Patrick accidentally saved Lucy. After she was recovered, she showed her super

physical agility, so she was arranged by Patrick to stay with him. In the past days when she was

innocent and young, Lucy followed behind Patrick all day along. Once, she confessed her love to

Patrick but was coldly turned down by him. After that, Lucy, this crazy woman, even trained herself

harder and became stronger.

Gary and Alan thought that it was possible that Lucy deliberately left Christina behind.

After all, she was not a Mother of God. If she had a chance to defeat her rival in love, of course, she

would not lose it. She was not that type of kind and selfless person.

Lucy was very restrained under Patrick’s scrutiny and she smiled. “Before that, I broke into the elder’s

place and stole an ancient book. Then I happened to meet Raphael and fought with him there. Raphael

asked me to give the ancient book to him. The things written in the ancient books were all symbols and

weird words, Raphael said he could understand them, and he would take the ancient book to save

Christina.”

“Of course, I can’t trust him easily. In the end, we tore the ancient book into two, and we each held half

of it.”

“I spent great efforts in sneaking into the prison. When I prepared to bring Christina out, Raphael also

barged in.

In order not to alarm more guards, I had to retreat. Raphael saved Christina. I think they have already

escaped.”

Lucy looked straight at Patrick as if she was telling the truth.

It had to be said that Lucy was really good at telling lies. Actually, Raphael didn’t tell her that he would

save Christina. She just guessed that.

Everyone listened with conviction.

Patrick continued to ask, “What is that book?”

Lucy replied seriously, “A book about the history of the Scepter and the way to use it.”

“At that urgent moment, why are you still going to steal such an unimportant book?” Alan sighed.

Lucy glared at them scornfully and roared, “Although I don’t understand those weird words, even

Raphael paid great efforts to sneak in and steal it. If I guess right, this book is very important. If

Christina can learn how to use the Scepter, we won’t have to be so passive as to be suppressed by

Chief.”

“Is that Scepter that powerful?”

“Chief waved his Scepter that day. Those snakes, including us, were thrown far away by an invisible

force…”

Alan and Gary were discussing.

Lucy blurted out, “That Scepter has recognized Christina as its master, but Christina, that fool, can’t

use it.”

Patrick turned to look at her expressionlessly, and Lucy immediately shut up.

“There must be a reason why the Scepter was deliberately divided into three.”

After careful consideration, Patrick felt that it was not good to recombine that three pieces of Scepter. It

would probably bring disaster.

Lucy and Gary were seriously thinking about what he said, and just then, the Barbarian Samba

suddenly howled, and all of them immediately turned around vigilantly.

Samba’s mother, the Matriarch of the Barbarians, knelt on the ground with a sad face. She mumbled

something, put her hands together, and prostrated herself before a big dead bird.

“What is she doing?”

Patrick and the others frowned as they looked at the Matriarch. It seemed that she was holding a

memorial ceremony

Samba tried very hard to explain to them. However, no one could understand the Aboriginal Language.

Lucy

could disguise herself as a man to lurk beside Mary and save all of them, but she was really annoyed

with these weird words and could not understand it at all.

Crabbie wandered around because he was hungry and wanted to pick up something to eat and he

really picked up a few big birds.

Crabbie looked excited. “The birds here are crazy. They are flying and bumping into a tree. I guess they

all want to kill themselves and reincarnate quickly.”

The birds committed suicide.

Other team members also found two dead large wild boars by the river not far away. The bodies of thenovelbin

wild boars were warm, which indicated that they had just died. However, none of these animals had

any wound, as if they had suffered sudden cardiac death.

The Matriarch put these dead animals in a pile and held a ceremony very piously. She knelt on the

ground with a fearful face.

Even if Patrick and the others couldn’t communicate with the Barbarians, they knew that this was not a

good thing.

These animals began to die strangely one after another,

“The moving stone coffin caused a change in the island’s magnetic field, and these birds and animals

were

strongly affected.”

Patrick and the others discussed this.

Lucy said seriously, “Now, the most important thing is to find Raphael. He knows where the stone coffin

is. Christina is taken away by him, and he probably has stolen the Scepter.”

“Chief will definitely send more men to hunt them down.”

Lucy waved her hand and chuckled guiltily. “Don’t worry. I’ve fought with him before. It’s not that easy

for Chief to catch him. Christina is safe now. She’s very safe.”

In the night, the search team was chasing them.

Until the sky gradually brightened, there was still no progress in chasing Christina and Raphael.

Lucy was right. It was not easy for the Chief’s men to catch Raphael and Christina. It was a piece of

cake for Raphael to elude their capture,

At present, he and Christina were relatively safe.

Christina followed Raphael all night. Apart from her personal dissatisfaction with Raphael, she finally

survived
