Witcher: I Can Extract Everything-Chapter 356 - Passing

The sailboat continued to sail for about half a month before arriving at its destination.

Standing on the deck, Heath looked at the small island that appeared on the blue sea in the distance.

It was a long, strip-shaped island. The body of the island was narrow, long, curved, and coiled like a long python on the sea. It even had a triangular shape at the front of the protruding mountain peak. It looked like a standard snake’s head.

Snake Island was also known as Prester Island.

Alza, who was beside Heath, looked at the island in front of him and asked Heath, “Wizard Heath, what else do you know about this island?”

Heath looked ahead and explained, “As far as I know, this island is formed from the corpse of Prester. At that time, he was chased by Stigmata Wizard Slavar here and killed here…”

Prester belonged to the snake species of the Arrowsnake, which was famous for its violent nature and ferocity. Prester had inherited those traits from the Arrowsnake, and his mother was the Sea God. His evil deeds at sea had stirred up a great deal of resentment.

After the fall of the Sea God, her influence was more or less liquidated, and Prester was one of the targets.

It was said that several Stigmata Wizards had formed an allied army to encircle Prester. In the end, the Stigmata Sorcerer Slavar discovered it in the depths of the ocean and killed him on the sea.

The Arrowsnake was a World Species, and Prester was no exception. After Prester was killed, its massive body formed an island on the sea, where life slowly began to flourish. As time passed, a cycle of ecology was formed, which was now Prester Island.

“I thought it was just a legend when I read about it in the books,” Heath said. “But now, it seems that Prester’s corpse is really Prester Island.”

As he approached the island, Heath felt a strong elemental fluctuation from the island. It was an elemental fluctuation that belonged exclusively to high-level demonized creatures, and it did not come from a particular place on the island. Instead, the entire island was releasing this feeling. Obviously, this situation could only be because the island was a huge demonized creature.

Alza said, “It’s not just a legend. After all, it’s also a common occurrence for the corpses of such creatures to form a small world.”

Heath asked in puzzlement, “How do they ensure that the corpses are intact?”

In fact, the ecological environment created by the World Species was usually only when the World Species was alive. Once the World Species died, the ecological environment created by the World Species would generally collapse.

This was because after the death of the World Species, its corpse would lose its original vitality, and the original pressure and elemental fluctuations on the corpse would gradually disappear.

After the World Species’ corpse lost its vitality and pressure, the creatures that had once parasitized its body would no longer fear it. Instead, they would feed on its corpse and slowly eat the entire corpse.

Most World Species would eventually disappear from this world in such a way. Alza laughed. “Sir, don’t you feel it yet?” Heath was stunned.

Alza said, “The distance is very close now. You can try using your spiritual power to check again.”

Heath immediately closed his eyes and extended his spiritual tentacle. A moment later, he suddenly opened his eyes.

He looked at Alza and asked in surprise, “This thing is still alive?”

Alza nodded. “Yes, but only his body is still alive.”

Alza explained, “At that time, Wizard Slavar was the first to find Prester, but Prester had already evolved to the Demigod level. It would be very difficult for Wizard Slavar to defeat him alone.”

“In the end, Wizard Slavar battled Prester for seven days and seven nights before finally defeating Prester with a sacred item.”

“However, Wizard Slavar was exhausted at that time, and no longer had the strength to kill Prester. In the end, all he could do was destroy his soul, and so his corpse was preserved.”

Heath was enlightened.

“I see.”

He looked curiously at Alza and asked, “So Wizard Alza is still researching on this? It’s rare to see someone with such obscure knowledge know him in such detail.”

With that, Heath stared at Alza’s expression. He felt that there must be other reasons for Alza to be able to tell the ins and outs of the island and the history behind it. After all, he felt that he already knew enough about these islands. However, he had never heard of what Alza mentioned before.

If it was not because his knowledge was too shallow, then it could only be that Alza had other sources of information that he did not know about. For example…

Alza laughed. “Hehehe, Sir Wizard, you don’t have to test me. I’ll just say it.”

After a pause, he explained, “In the Wizard World, Wizard Heath, I think you should have heard of the name Fons, right?”

Heath nodded. “One of the ancient Wizard families in the ancient times. If I remember correctly, the Stigmata Wizard Slavar that you mentioned just now is from the Fons family, right? Hmm… Could it be…”

At this point, he seemed to have suddenly thought of something and looked at Alza with puzzlement.

Alza nodded and admitted, “Yes, my Lord. My full name is actually Alza Slavar Fons.”

Heath suddenly understood.

So that was it. This made sense. Heath had previously thought it strange that Alza knew so much obscure knowledge. After all… He felt that what he knew about Prester Island was enough among Wizards, and that was because he had extracted Deep Sea Kiss’ entire library.

However, even with so much knowledge, he had never heard of what Alza had just mentioned.

But it was not hard to understand. After all, Jackman was a pureblood with a high status. His friends who had played with him since childhood would certainly not be too different in status.

Heath quickly said, “It’s such an honor.”

Alza waved his hand and said somewhat dejectedly, “Sir Wizard, you’re too polite. The Fons family is no longer the former Fons family. Now, it’s just an ordinary Wizard family. You don’t have to be polite.”

Although the Fons family used to be rich, they only produced Slavar, a Stigmata Wizard. Moreover, the descendants of this Wizard were not very talented. Under the erosion of time… Now, they had become a third-rate Wizard family in the Wizard World. Their glory was no longer…
