Chapter 75: Peach Blossom Island

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The next day, the sun rose, and the warm rays of it shone on the warm human body. Even the cold seawater seemed to have warmed up.

That calm moment lasted until two screams pierced the silence, well, a human scream and a dog bark.

Last night, they lit a bonfire and fell asleep beside the warm flames. Before they went to sleep, they were separated. After they woke up, they hugged each other in the exact opposite position.

When Lin Qi opened his eyes, he saw a big butt facing him. No wonder he had a dream last night about going to the toilet. Then, he let out a scream and subconsciously punched the Dark King’s butt.

Then, the Dark king woke up in shock. It was also puzzled that it had a dream last night about eating chicken feet. Then, it flew into a rage. Its two hind legs kicked fiercely, and Lin Qi flew.

..

Lin Qi did not know when it started, but getting beaten up by a dog became a common occurrence. He even had to cook for the dog with bruises on his face.

The man and the dog finished their breakfast in a strange atmosphere and decided to explore that place properly.

They first walked around the beach. After almost half a day, they finally confirmed that they were on an island.

They were surrounded by an endless sea. There was nothing but seagulls in the sky.

Then, they explored the island. They saw nothing except fruit trees, especially peach trees. There were no demonic beasts, no humans, and only some ordinary animals.

However, the peach blossoms were very beautiful. Even a man like Lin Qi, who had no interest in flowers at all, felt that the flowers were too beautiful.

“It seems that we are the first intelligent creatures to arrive on this island. Since the peach blossoms on this island are so beautiful, let’s call it the Peach Blossom Island.”

The Dark King was not interested in Lin Qi’s sudden poetic mindset at all.

It only cared about whether the fruits here were delicious or not.

Lin Qi looked at the Peach Blossom Island and was very satisfied.

He thought about it and realized that place was very suitable for the orc tribe to settle down. There was no acid rain or extreme weather here, and there was plenty of food.

Of course, even if there was no food, it did not matter. After all, with his system, he could make whatever food he wanted.

Just as Lin Qi began to look forward to a better life in the future, the Dark King threw a bucket of cold water on Lin Qi’s head.

“Do you know where this is?”

“Peach Blossom Island!”

“I didn’t ask for your idiotic name. I asked, how do we go back?”

“Uh… Yeah, how do we go back?” Lin Qi fell into deep thought.

They did not have a ship or a map, and they knew nothing except the position of the sun.

What was the use of knowing the position? They did not know where they were at all!

Lin Qi’s plan for a better life was aborted before it even started.

Just like that, after thinking for a long time, Lin Qi finally made up his mind.

“That’s it!” Lin Qi clenched his right fist and smashed it on his left hand.

“Let’s make a boat!”

“A boat? Sure, but I don’t know how to make one. Do you?” The Dark King questioned Lin Qi’s plan.

“I don’t know either! But if we can’t make a boat, how about a raft?” Lin Qi pointed at the forest behind him.

“There are trees everywhere. I saw vines just now. Let’s cut the trees and make a raft!”

Dark King thought for a moment. “There’s no problem making a raft, but we still don’t know where we are.”

Lin Qi waved his hand, “It’s okay. I’ve thought about it. I know that the east of the Mill continent is a vast ocean. Other than that, I’ve never heard of such a large body of water. So we’ll head west. We should be able to return to the Mill continent.”

The Dark King thought about it and felt that it made sense.

They started to search for sturdy trees on the island. After comparing and comparing, peach trees were the most suitable.

Then, they found a small gorge in the forest. The rock walls were covered with vines. Lin Qi picked one randomly and tested it. The toughness was not bad.

The raw materials were all prepared. Now, they just had to cut down enough trees.

However, they found that they did not have any tools.

The Dark King could knock down the peach trees, but it was very laborious and the broken trees were uneven. It was not suitable for a raft.

Lin Qi had to pick up a lot of relatively sharp stones by the sea and found a big stone. He sat on it and patted some seawater on the rocks. He began to grind the rocks, but it was a little time-consuming.

After sharpening the rocks, he picked up some slightly thicker wooden sticks and tied the rocks and wooden sticks together with vines to make a stone axe.

Now that the tools were crafted, all he had to do was cut down the trees.

Just like that, the man and the dog began to cut down the trees. Lin Qi used the stone axe. At first, the Dark King bit on it with its teeth, but later, it found it troublesome.

..

Slowly, three days passed. They had cut enough wood. Now, they just had to pick the vines and tie the wood together.

On the fourth day, when they arrived at the gorge, they suddenly saw a skeleton more than 30 feet long there.

Lin Qi was shocked. He quickly held the stone axe on his back in his hand and looked around. He did not find anything unusual. He carefully walked toward the skeleton and carefully observed it. It was very clean. There was no meat on it at all, he did not know what kind of animal it was based on the bones.

“There was no such skeleton before, right?” Lin Qi was not sure.

“I don’t think so.” Dark King was also unsure.

“Then… Are there actually demonic beasts on this island?” Lin Qi was a little afraid.

“I don’t think so. Even if there was, I would just eat the dragon egg. If there is another demonic beast, I will eat it in one bite!” Although Dark King said that it was not afraid, it kept observing its surroundings as it spoke. Its eyes were filled with unease.

“This might be a tiger or a wolf. The skeleton was probably left over from its hunt.”

Lin Qi looked at the skeleton again. “A wild beast… Could it eat so cleanly?”

That skeleton was too clean. Logically speaking, it was impossible for a wild beast to eat so cleanly after tearing it apart.

“Ah, don’t scare yourself. Maybe that wild beast is thrifty.”

Lin Qi wanted to say something but was interrupted by the Dark King.

“Alright, stop scaring yourself. Hurry up and take the vines. We’ll leave after that!”

Lin Qi had no choice but to pick up the stone axe, cut off the vines, and put them into the system.

They were still worried. They searched the island again, but still had not found anything.

However, after that incident, they felt a chill in their hearts, so the next morning, they hurried to make a raft.

After the raft was made, they picked a lot of fruit from the fruit trees and rushed to sit on the raft to head west.

It was not until the island became a small dot in their sight that they were completely relieved.
