My Attractiveness Only Affects Divine Beasts-Chapter 82 - The Illusion of the Sea of Thunder and Fire

Mike looked around him. The scene in front of him was something he could never have imagined.

Although he knew that this place was the Sea of Thunder and Fire that had been set up by the Thunder Battle Eagle, Mike could not help from initially imagining the Sea of Thunder and Fire to be a dangerous place.

However, the scene in front of him now shocked him greatly.

He was currently standing on a vast grassland.

The mountains were high and green. There seemed to be no sign of danger at all.

Mike looked into the distance. There seemed to be no sign of people here either. Other than the grassland and mountains, all he could only see when he raised his head was a clear blue sky.

“Did I teleport to the wrong place? Why does the Sea of Thunder and Fire look completely different to what I imagined?”

Mike stood rooted to the ground.

Before he had teleported, he had thought of thousands of ways to fight the crisis.

However, looking at his current situation, he felt as if he was here for a vacation. 𝐟𝙧ee𝔀e𝐛𝓃𝐨𝚟𝑒𝗹.c𝗼𝚖

‘Let’s forget about what I thought. I should go take a look around first!’

Mike pondered the situation as he began to explore the grassland in front of him.

Stepping onto the green grass that was under his feet, Mike did not allow himself to relax even a little bit.

He kept reminding himself that this was the dangerous and terrifying Sea of Thunder and Fire.

That what he was seeing was merely an illusion that had been set up by the Thunder Battle Eagle!

However, even after a long time had passed, Mike still felt as if he had not moved at all.

He turned around and looked behind him. The mountains in the distance were still high, and the grassland was still vast.

“This is strange! Am I in some kind of twilight zone?”

Just as he was wondering about this, Mike noticed that there was smoke coming out from behind a hill that was not far away.

Did the appearance of smoke over there mean that there was someone behind the hill?

Whatever! He should take a look first! It was not a good idea to drag it out like this!

With this thought in mind, Mike quickly began to move in the direction of the smoke.

After about two to three hours, Mike finally crossed the low hill.

Standing at the top of the hill, a small but beautiful village suddenly appeared in front of him.

“I was right! There really is a village here!”

Mike looked at the village in the distance with surprise. His heart was restless and he could not wait to fly over to the village immediately.

However, it was another long journey before Mike finally arrived at the village.

“How strange. Why don’t I see a single person here?”

Without exception, all the doors of every house in the village were closed.

The streets were completely deserted.

Mike walked over to the door of one of the houses and knocked on the door.

“Hello! Is anyone there?”

After shouting for a while, there was still no movement from the other side of the door.

‘Hey, this is really strange! Is this some kind of a ghost village?’

Mike looked at the white smoke that was rising in the sky, finally locking his gaze on a short house in front of him.

“This is where the white smoke rose from! There should be some people here!”

As he said this, Mike walked in the direction of the house.

“Hello! Is anyone there? Hello…”

Mike kept on knocking on the door of the house. However, no matter how hard he knocked, there was still no response from the other side of the door.

Seeing that all his actions had been in vain, Mike felt a wave of frustration in his heart.

“How strange! There isn’t a single person in such a big village!”

Just as Mike turned around and was about to leave, the door that had originally been closed suddenly opened.

“Young man, you are an adventurer, aren’t you?”

The voice of an old person instantly roused Mike’s consciousness.

He immediately turned around to look behind him.

A white-haired old man was hiding behind the door, partially concealed as he peered out at him.

Upon seeing the old man who had taken the initiative to ask him this question, Mike suddenly felt re-energized.

“Old man, I am indeed an adventurer. I am new to this place. May I ask why there is no one in this village?”

The old man gave a helpless sigh. Then, he looked around again before saying, “Young man, please come in first!”

The partially closed door was then opened wider.

Upon entering through the door, Mike’s eyes were instantly attracted by the facilities in the room.

The interior of the house was completely different from its bright and beautiful exterior.

Signs of poverty and dilapidation were everywhere.

It looked as if he had just experienced a disaster.

The only thing of value in the old man’s room seemed to be the pot from where smoke was still rising.

The old man walked straight to the pot, opened the lid, and took out a thin corn cob.

The old man looked at Mike, then broke off half of it before handing it to Mike.

“Young man, you must be hungry. Here, have something to eat. This is also my last ration!”

Last ration? Why had the old man said that? What had happened here, exactly?

With such doubts in mind, Mike asked, “Old man, what is it that this village has experienced? Why are you so poor? Just by looking at the appearance of this village from the outside, I couldn’t tell that your conditions were so tough!”

The old man stared into Mike’s eyes, before letting out a helpless sigh.

“Sigh, everything started with the invasion of the Nuuk army!”

“The Nuuk Army?” Mike asked hesitantly.

Once again, a burst of doubts arose in his heart.

Was this not the Sea of Thunder and Fire? Why did it feel as if this wasn’t at all like what Cartier had said?

Although his heart was full of doubts, Mike concealed it from the old man.

“Our village had originally been wealthy. Since the Nuuk Army came, everything here has changed!”

“They took all the women from this village away and killed all the young men here. In the end, only the old people like us were left!”

“What’s happening with the Nuuk Army now? Will they come back again?” Mike asked.

The old man looked into Mike’s eyes and shook his head in disappointment.

“No! Anything of value from our village has been completely drained! Even if they come back again, there’s nothing left for them to take away!”

Hearing the old man’s words, a burst of anger rose in Mike’s heart.

Subconsciously, he clenched his fists.

“Old man, what do you plan to do now? Do you want to continue to live like this?”

The old man smiled helplessly.

“If I could still live, I wouldn’t be in this state today!”

“Originally, I had planned to finish this corn cob and go on my way! Who would have thought that you would come along here?”

The old man’s desperate words ignited the anger in Mike’s heart once again.

Mike gritted his teeth. He had been born poor and could not stand bullies.

“Old man! Do you know where these people are? I think that I can help you deal with them!”
