Chapter 369: Tree Shock Megan’s Location
Chapter 369: Tree Shock Megan’s Location
This time when Rango went down to the sea and came to Bikini Bottom, he did not bring Jackie Chan and his gang with him.
First, it is because they are just ordinary people and their physical strength is far from enough.
Secondly, Rango is not like those gods who can create things like divine barriers, so he can only go to the sea alone.
But speaking of it, maybe Uncle Long can really sink all the way to Bikini Bottom. Anyway, Rango feels that Uncle Long is a hard person to figure out. He always feels that this guy’s upper limit is likely to be higher than everyone else.
But now Rango was very glad that he did not bring Uncle Long, Teddy and the others with him, and, oh, that woman Annabeth.
“What are you thinking about?” A gentle voice interrupted Rango’s thoughts, coming from the squirrel Sandy on his chest.
At this time, she had taken off her helmet, revealing her pretty face, with sweat slightly oozing out of it, and was leaning against Rango’s chest.
The two of them were now lying on a huge tree trunk, surrounded by the underwater forest villa that Sandy had carefully built.
The trees in the villa are tall and dense, with glowing vines entwined around the trunks, the ground is covered with soft moss, and the air is filled with a faint fragrance.
The most outrageous thing is that occasionally you can hear a few clear bird calls from the depths of the forest, making it hard to imagine how Sandy built such a forest villa under the sea.
Rango stroked Sandy’s back gently, feeling her soft fur and warm body temperature.
Well, I have to say that the body structure of squirrels is really different from that of humans.
As for Sandy, she snuggled in Rango’s arms, with a hint of shyness and satisfaction in her eyes.
The girl was a little embarrassed at first, but maybe it was because she grew up in a monster circle, it seemed that she didn’t care as much about that kind of thing as humans.
So half-heartedly,
Rango coughed lightly, flicked Sandy’s ears with his fingers, and said with a smile: “I was wondering, do you feel lonely living here alone for so long?”
Sandy smiled and looked up into Rango’s eyes. “It’s okay, actually. I’ve gotten used to it a long time ago. Besides, I’m not alone. SpongeBob and Patrick are both good friends. Uh… Although they are weirder than each other, they all have good personalities. Besides, don’t we have you now?”
“But I’m leaving Bikini Bottom soon, otherwise…”
Rango raised his eyebrows and thought for a while, then lowered his head and kissed Sandy’s forehead gently: “Why don’t you leave here with me? It’s not right for a squirrel like you to stay in the sea all the time. Besides, Mavis has almost no friends since she left the mysterious island and went to New York. You can go and keep her company.”
Sandy blinked, seeming to weigh Rango’s proposal.
Rango waited for the answer with anticipation, of course, he also had his own little thoughts.
If Sandy really goes to New York, Rango will most likely be the only human in history who can fly with bats and squirrels.
Sandy seemed to see through his thoughts, her cheeks became even redder, but she did not refuse, but nodded gently: “Okay, I’ll go with you.”
Rango was delighted and immediately prepared to jump off the tree trunk. Yes, the two of them had been sleeping on the trunk of a big tree from beginning to end.
When Rango thought of this, he couldn’t help but sigh secretly. He had lived for so many years and experienced so many earthquakes, but the tree earthquake was really the first time in the world.
However, Sandy, who was getting a little too excited, stopped him with a look of inexplicable meaning in her eyes: “Honey, I have another place you haven’t tried yet.”
“A place?” Rango was stunned and looked at Sandy in confusion: “What place?”
Sandy leaned close to Rango’s ear and whispered a word starting with “A”.
Rango’s eyes lit up immediately, and he rubbed his hands impatiently and said, “What are you waiting for? Let’s get started!”
The next day.
The sun gradually rose, and the scenery on the sea cliff was extremely beautiful.
Teddy and Uncle Long were drowsy, while Annabeth and Tyson took turns waiting for Rango to come back with their prepared breakfast.
Everyone’s expression was a little abnormal. After all, Rango had been gone for nearly a day and a night since Dionysus smashed his headphones last night.
Just as everyone was yawning, a splash of water shot up into the sky.
The god of wine, who was already dying and with only his eyeballs still able to move, exhausted the last of his divine power, and the golden barrier he condensed broke through the water.
Teddy and the others all breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Rango in the barrier. They were not worried that something in the place called Bikini Bottom could entangle Rango, but they were simply getting a little impatient waiting.
But when everyone saw that Rango was holding a humanoid squirrel, their expressions suddenly became funny. Especially Teddy, when he saw the squirrel holding Rango’s arm, he seemed to understand something and couldn’t help but mutter to himself.
“This guy’s XP is definitely a little off. He ignored a top-notch mature woman like Elastigirl and went to the ocean to pick up a squirrel instead?”
At this time, Teddy was very glad that he was a male, otherwise, he would not be able to escape from Rango’s clutches.
After Rango greeted them warmly, he noticed that everyone was sitting around the breakfast table, so he took off a huge backpack from his back with a smile on his face. The backpack was full of Krabby Patties that he had carefully packed from the Krusty Krab as a special souvenir of this trip to Bikini Bottom.
Since I went to Bikini Bottom, of course I had to bring back some local specialties.
When Teddy and the others saw this thing, they became excited and sat around the cliff, eating and chatting.
While enjoying the delicious Krabby Patty, Rango briefly shared what he saw and heard in Bikini Bottom.
Everyone present were adventurers who had been to many strange places, but when they heard that there was a place in the deep sea that was similar to a human town but inhabited by humanoid marine creatures, they all showed expressions of amazement.
After Rango finished describing the customs and practices of Bikini Bottom, he gently threw the nearly dying “dead dog” Dionysus to Annabeth and asked, “What are you going to do with this guy?”
Annabeth first glanced at Sandy who was leaning against Rango with a strange look, then squinted her eyes and glared at Rango, then said calmly, “Skin him alive! We plan to publicly execute him in the camp, and every demigod whose family was broken up because of him will come and personally send him off.”
Rango nodded and continued to ask, “So, what are your plans next? Now that the nominal leader of the Demigod Camp no longer exists, can the camp still operate? The old guy Dionysus used the genes of the gods to create thousands of little demigods with divine power. If no one guides them correctly, I’m afraid it will cause a lot of chaos in human society.”
Annabeth seemed to have an idea. Over the past few years, she had been serving as a teacher in the camp and was respected by many demigods. Those guys also respected her opinions very much.
In addition, she develops a deep connection with the ancient laurel tree that serves as a patron saint outside the camp.
Originally, everyone thought that the laurel tree was Daphne, daughter of Zeus, but now it seems that it was just an ordinary girl who was injected with Zeus’ genes, but could not withstand the backlash of the God King’s genes, and thus turned into a laurel. “From now on, the laurel tree and I will replace Dionysus and search around the world for those children who have been injected with God’s genes by Dionysus but have not yet awakened their divine power, and guide them to the right path.” Annabeth said firmly.
After thinking for a moment, Rango said to Annabeth, “When I return to New York, I will ask Luke and his companions in Europe to meet you on the Mysterious Island. Luke and his companions have always harbored resentment towards their god parents, but now the truth is out. Their parents are actually mortals, and the murderer of their parents, Dionysus, has become a dying useless man. Let them come together to seek revenge. You two factions should stop fighting, after all, you are both victims. After dealing with that old fellow Dionysus, you should reconcile as soon as possible.”
In Rango’s eyes, compared with the members of the Demigod Camp on the mysterious island, Luke and his group have the greatest potential.
For the sake of their biological father or mother, they can directly abandon their so-called demigod identity and rebel against Olympus.
This recognition and respect for one’s own human identity is difficult to match by many other demigods.
What’s more, Luke is not only eloquent and charming, but he has also successfully won over a large number of minor demigods under the nose of the god of wine. His own strength has also surpassed Annabeth, Percy and others.
And after meeting Rango, who was much stronger than him, this guy was able to humble himself and actively try to please him and make friends with him. This tactfulness and sophistication were something Annabeth and Percy could not compare to.
Frankly speaking, Luke is the one with real leadership qualities, much stronger than these guys in the Demigod camp.
Now that Ragnarok is approaching, Rango feels that he should gather some forces around him.
Whether it is the mysterious company in New York that can create super-powered people, or the little demigods representing the European Olympus mythology, they will be an indispensable force in saving the world in the future.
This is the correct way to open a mythological story.
When Annabeth heard Rango’s proposal, a look of hesitation appeared on her face.
In the past few years, they have been in opposition to Luke’s team. But without much hesitation, she still chose to nod in agreement.
After all, the real culprit is Dionysus, and all of them are just pawns manipulated by Dionysus.
After enjoying the burger, Rango clapped his hands and prepared to say goodbye to everyone.
Now, except for the Holy Lord and Bo Gang’s tokens, the other six gods’ tokens have all been collected. It’s time to go to Dad’s antique shop to divine Megan’s location.
However, Annabeth’s face tightened when she saw this. She looked at the people around her, gritted her teeth, stood up, walked to Rango, and pulled him towards the forest: “I… I have something to discuss with you.” She said, trying to pull Rango away without saying a word.
Everyone around looked at them strangely. It was broad daylight, why couldn’t they say it face to face? Why did they have to go into the forest to talk?
But Rango looked at Anna’s rapid breathing and knew what was going on.
When Rango thought about what was going to happen, he couldn’t help but look slightly bitter.
What the hell! If I had known this would happen, I wouldn’t have played with Sandy for so long. Now the milk has turned into water!
———-
In New York’s Chinatown, in Old Man’s antique shop, Old Man looked at the six relics of gods neatly arranged in front of him, pulling his beard and falling into deep thought.
It’s only been a few days?
Rango stood aside, watching his father’s reaction with a smile, and explained: “Because the evil spirit of Bo Gang had leaked out, I dealt with it directly. But the other six are all here, not one less.”
Hearing this, Dad took a deep breath, as if trying to calm himself down.
He snorted lightly and originally planned to put all the tokens away, but then he changed his mind and felt a little unwilling to do so, so he wanted to pick out some more.
After all, he had originally planned to give this Winchester kid a good beating, but he didn’t expect that the other party would complete the task so easily.
But just as the old man was about to put the token away, Rango suddenly pressed his big hand on the token and grinned, “Dad, there is a saying in the East that goes ‘one hand pays the other hand delivers the goods’. How about you divine my sister’s location first?”
The old man looked at Rango’s cunning smile, shook his head helplessly, and raised a helpless smile at the corner of his mouth: “Anyway, you Winchesters are all the same, you are the ones who only take advantage and never suffer any loss.”
After saying that, Dad put down the token from the god, waved his hand, and took everyone around the store for a few rounds. Then he entered a small compartment and came to an ancient and mysterious crystal ball.
“Is this a crystal ball?”
Rango showed an unexpected expression. He thought that a powerful old oriental wizard like his father would use some method such as Qimen Dunjia, coin divination, or astrology.
What the hell is going on with this crystal ball?
Isn’t this what those gypsy barbarians in Europe use?
Of course, Rango’s father was unaware of his inner complaints. At this moment, his father was standing in front of the crystal ball, with his hands clasped together, muttering to himself.
The old man’s voice was low and mysterious, and it sounded like he was communicating with some unknown power.
As his spell became faster and faster, the crystal ball in front of everyone began to change.
The originally faint light gradually became stronger, as if a mysterious force was surging in it.
Suddenly, changes began to appear on the crystal ball.
Shadows quickly condensed inside the crystal ball, as if something was about to appear.
Rango and everyone else held their breath, nervously watching the changes in the crystal ball, especially Rango, who hadn’t seen Megan for more than ten years. His excitement and nervousness far exceeded that of others.
But when the shadows finally took shape, Rango was stunned.
Instead of the figure of Megan he expected, he saw four oddly shaped shadows.
These four shadows looked strange and weird, which made Rango’s heart tighten and his fists clenched involuntarily.
“These bastards don’t look like good people.” Rango thought to himself, “Maybe they are the bad guys who imprisoned Megan.”
But just as he was thinking this, the shadows suddenly changed.
The originally weird appearance gradually became cute, and finally turned into four cute little ones.
Rango opened his mouth in disbelief: “Whatfuck? Penguin?!”
