Chapter 735 - Odd Vortexes
From a distance, this new island wasn’t much different from the one that trapped them for an entire night. The same plain ground, the same dark atmosphere, and the same creeper vines.
The sailors weren’t happy to see it since they almost died somewhere like this. It seemed that Erwin agreed with them since the captain was telling his men to speed up and get out of here ASAP.
“Wait.”
Angor startled everyone by taking a great leap in the air and used two “mini-tornadoes” to reach the island.
Since the protector of the ship decided so, the sailors had no choice but to halt the ship somewhere nearby.
As soon as Angor arrived, the creeper plants smelled human flesh and woke up from their slumber, then they relentlessly slammed their fierce-looking arms at him.
Angor simply moved ahead. At the same time, his Field of Fire cantrip surrounded him and burned all the plants close enough to ash.
Following his display of strength, the other presences hidden on the island looked his way.
Although he couldn’t see very far, the chaotic current caused by the vortex convinced him that this area was far from peaceful.
Swiftly, he cast Light to illuminate his surroundings.
The first thing he saw was a large fish with stretching fangs. It looked so hideous that he felt his body jump out of instinct.
After avoiding a straightforward tackle attack from the fish, he used another simple cantrip to turn the fish into an ice block. He learned this one by altering the “Ice Wall” cantrip. It seemed it worked better than intended when in water.
He looked around and didn’t see a second predator coming for him. However, there were a lot of tiny, unknown creatures floating about.
He pushed through the force of the disturbed current and moved closer to the vortex.
Soon, a glowing dot that was directly under the vortex entered his view.
He was almost sure that whatever was shining down there was the cause of the obstructions.
