Chapter 2003 - 1528: Scrape the Land Clean! (Part 2)
Although this is merely Qin Fang's personal speculation, it cannot be guaranteed that it is not true!After tidying everything up, Qin Fang immediately left this place and proceeded forward along the passage that resembled a sewer.
Based on Qin Fang's own estimation, it's rare for anyone to appear here; otherwise, the man in the black robe wouldn't have discovered the Netherworld Blood Pool and enjoyed it in peace.
However, since there is such a passage here, and it's man-made, it definitely connects to the outside, possibly even to some location on this island.
Qin Fang entered Devil's Island just a day ago, and apart from seeing a very primitive forest, there seemed to be nothing else.
Yet, besides them, the trialists, quite a few hunters have indeed appeared, proving that there are people living on Devil's Island.
So where do these people live?
This is a more realistic question... The residential area on Devil's Island certainly exists.
However, other trialists may have discovered this place, and their first reaction would definitely be to avoid it, hide as far away as possible.
But Qin Fang is different; he has been continuously searching for the location of such a place... His father, Qin Tiannan, is trapped on the island, and without finding this location, he can't find him.
Qin Fang walked briskly forward in one direction; although the sewer was a bit eerie, it was quite solid and spacious.
In this regard, the sewers in the Dragon Country really cannot be compared at all; they are simply garbage dumps... This is something Qin Fang is relatively grateful for.
Perhaps because there aren't many people on Devil's Island, or maybe the building connected by this sewer doesn't have much trash, Qin Fang found this journey quite comfortable, as it lacks any particularly strange smells.
Of course, though Qin Fang moved quickly, he remained extremely cautious about his own safety, constantly monitoring the surroundings with a small map.
Since the man in the black robe found this Netherworld Blood Pool and had Sofia bring so many people to die to assist in the ripening process of the Netherworld Blood Pool, it also cannot be guaranteed that he won't have other tricks up his sleeve.
There are too many experts on Devil's Island, so Qin Fang has to stay alert... Especially in this eerie and dim sewer, Qin Fang is even more cautious.
"There's an exit..."
However, Qin Fang's efforts were not in vain; after rushing quickly for over ten minutes, Qin Fang finally discovered an exit.
This doesn't strictly count as an exit; at most, it's a hole created by landslides, about two to three meters above Qin Fang's current ground level.
The hole isn't small; it's big enough for a person to squeeze through, which isn't a problem for a typical Martial Arts Expert, as the height isn't too high.
Wandering around in such a dark sewer clearly isn't something Qin Fang wants to do; he wants to know where he has ended up.
"There's no one around..."
Qin Fang first reconnoitered the surrounding environment; at least within a seventy to eighty-meter radius around the exit, there was no one, which made Qin Fang feel much more at ease.
With a swift motion, Qin Fang easily passed through the hole and leaped out of the exit, landing on a small ledge above.
"So this is it..."
Seeing this small ledge, Qin Fang understood why no one discovered the Netherworld Blood Pool below; this location is simply too secluded.
Qin Fang adjusted his physique to be more slender, allowing him to pass through the ledge and proceed to a higher level.
After a short walk, he saw a hint of light ahead of the ledge, with a significant area covered in light, indicating that he had finally emerged from the sewer below.
Similarly, after confirming that there was no one around, Qin Fang climbed up from below and found himself standing on a rock wall of the mountain.
"Where is this..."
Cautiously emerging from this exit, the surroundings became much clearer, which surprised Qin Fang greatly.
Perhaps due to spending too much time in the Netherworld Blood Pool earlier, the sky had changed from black night to daylight, and the sun had begun rising slowly from the horizon.
The sunrise scenery was quite beautiful to behold, but Qin Fang wasn't in the mood to appreciate such a view.
This stone wall was part of the cliff of the mountain Qin Fang saw upon arriving on Devil's Island, not very far below, approximately five to six meters in height.
However, this wasn't something Qin Fang cared about; what truly shocked him was the sight in his vision—a large area resembling a military base at the foot of the mountain.
Though the buildings weren't particularly high, they were arranged in a staggered pattern, appearing quite distinctive...
"Perhaps, he's there!"
Looking at the expanse of buildings, Qin Fang's mood immediately improved considerably.
Since arriving on Devil's Island, progress has been rather smooth, but until he finds his father, Qin Tiannan, Qin Fang's mood cannot completely relax.
This base occupies a large stretch of land at the edge of Devil's Island, with the azure sea not far behind it.
From Qin Fang's angle, he could clearly see the runway and dock built at the seaside... It really looked convincing.
Qin Fang wondered if the nuclear submarine that brought them here was anchored in the sea behind the dock...
However, this base appeared quite standard, built in a relatively concealed location; had Qin Fang not been positioned perfectly, it would have been hard to overlook this base.
At least, Qin Fang estimated that other trialists, unable to find his position, would have to climb to a considerable height on the mountain to glimpse the base.
This mountain remains quite steep; Qin Fang's area is dominated by sheer cliff faces, lacking any spots to stand.
Possibly because it was still early, although Qin Fang saw the base clearly below, he didn't see much activity happening within.
On this side, aside from the base, everything else is covered by forest, rendering anything else invisible.
"Since I've discovered something, I must take a look..."
Though it's only the second day on Devil's Island, discovering such a base definitely made faster progress than other trialists.
Taking advantage of this lead, while the hunters haven't focused their attention here, Qin Fang plans to quickly explore this base.
Without hesitation, Qin Fang once again adjusted his appearance, transforming into the likeness of the hunter he killed earlier.
Then, he leaped down from the cliff, heading swiftly towards the base... Yet, he remained constantly vigilant to changes in his surroundings.
The distance isn't particularly far, merely about two to three kilometers; with Qin Fang's speed, even if he couldn't fully utilize the Traceless Snow Stepping Technique, it only took him a few minutes to reach the base's perimeter.
Compared to typical military bases with high walls, iron fences, and armed soldiers, this base appeared much more rudimentary.
Aside from a barely constructed thorny wire fence, there were no proper defensive facilities... Let alone soldiers standing guard; not even a ghost shadow was visible.
As Qin Fang crossed the wire fence into the base, he immediately sensed a strange feeling...(To be continued. If you enjoy this work, please visit Qidian.com to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets; your support is my greatest motivation.)
