Muddy Island was a special island in the Star Ocean.
Most of the islands were occupied by the Beast Race and outsiders were not allowed to enter. However, Muddy Island was different. Any race could enter the island at any time.
Of course, after entering the island, they had to follow the island's rules.
The island was not rich in resources, but it was because of this that this island was especially prosperous compared to other islands.
Some of the islands in the Star Ocean had teleportation formations, and Muddy Island had one.
However, it was ridiculously expensive to use a teleportation formation here.
The ruler of this island was a Beast Race called the Lonely Deer. In the Star Ocean, this beast was very famous because it was very powerful.
In the Star Ocean, Muddy Island was not the only island owned by the Lonely Deer Race.
This island was more than ten times larger than the yellow island Yang Tian was on.
The little green turtle carried Yang Tian, Huie and Chanchan and quickly landed at the edge of Muddy Island. During this process, Yang Tian and the others did not encounter any obstacles.
The gravity of Muddy Island was stronger than the yellow island, but the air density was only one-third of the yellow island's.
Moreover, the temperature of this island was much lower than the yellow island. Yang Tian estimated that it was about -20 degrees Celsius.
Such an environment was difficult for ordinary humans to survive, but it was not bad for powerful Beasts and cultivators.
The main color of Muddy Island was black.
The black mountain rocks, black plants, and even the water in the river were all black in contrast.
Fortunately, this was a world with life.
When Yang Tian arrived on this island, other than a large patch of black, there were also Beasts and Humans in colorful clothes.
There were many Beasts and Humans on the island. There were small people less than a meter tall and giants more than ten meters tall.
Some of them were burly men, and some of them were delicate beauties.
Different races had different skin colors. A yellow-skinned human like Yang Tian was very rare on Muddy Island.
The place where Yang Tian landed was at the edge of Muddy Island. There were circles of black stone houses around the island, making it look extremely crowded.
The people who lived there were mostly wanderers in space. In other words, they were so poor that they could only live in the worst part of the island.
The conditions were extremely poor, and the security situation was not very good.
When Yang Tian arrived and walked on the path between the black stone houses, many unfriendly gazes gathered on them.
Wherever intelligent beings gathered, there would be commercial activity.
The road between the black stone houses was more than ten meters wide, and both sides of the road were filled with stalls.
Many of the stalls were filled with meat.
Yang Tian saw that one of the stalls had half a human corpse hanging on it. A three-meter-tall man gave a black crystal to the stall owner and bought the bloody corpse.
Seeing this situation, Yang Tian couldn't help but frown. He was very disgusted and angry.
This was because this was a real human corpse.
It was Yang Tian's first time seeing a human being sold as food by the Beastmen.
Looking at the man carrying half a human corpse, Yang Tian narrowed his eyes and followed him.
The man walked along the road for a few hundred meters, turned into an alley, and walked into a courtyard.
The courtyard was not big, about a hundred square meters. It was surrounded by a wall less than two meters tall made of stone. There were three stone houses inside.
There were three other men in the courtyard. They were about the same size as the man carrying half a human corpse.
It seemed that the four of them were of the same race.
There was a big pot in the courtyard, and the water was already boiling.
The man who carried the corpse walked into the courtyard and laughed. He seemed very happy.
He threw the corpse on a chopping board made of black stone slabs by the stone wall. He took out a knife and chopped the corpse into pieces. After washing it with water, he threw it into the pot. Then, he took out a fist-sized bottle and poured some red powder into it.
The temperature of the water was very high. In less than a minute, the smell of cooking meat wafted out of the pot.
Yang Tian and Hui 'e Chanchan stood outside the courtyard and watched everything silently.
When she saw one of the men stirring the pot with a fork, Hui 'e Chanchan finally couldn't help but vomit by the wall.
Yang Tian had already blocked his sense of smell. Seeing Hui 'e Chanchan's uncomfortable appearance, he walked to her side and patted her back.
Hui 'e Chanchan was a pure human. It was the first time she saw a human being being cooked as food.
Those four burly men were not humans. They were only in human form.
Although they were eating humans, they were in human form because it was more convenient for them to live in human form.
"%% ¥#!"
Hui 'e Chan Chan's vomiting alarmed the four men in the courtyard. One of them walked out and saw Yang Tian and Hui' e Chan Chan standing by the wall. He pointed at the two of them and shouted angrily.
To them, Yang Tian and the rest were trespassing on their private property. Of course they were unhappy.
Facing the man's angry shout, Hui 'e Chanchan wiped her mouth and pointed at the man. "You … You eat humans!"
"Hahaha …"
The nose of one of the four men twitched a few times, and a pleasantly surprised expression appeared in his eyes. He whispered a few words to his three companions, and then the four of them burst out laughing.
Yang Tian saw their actions and expressions and knew that they had smelled Hui 'e Chanchan's scent.
Without a doubt, they saw Hui 'e Chanchan as food.
The half of the body that the man carried back was a male body. Compared to Hui 'e Chanchan, the smell was much worse.
They were happy that food was delivered to them.
The four of them exchanged glances before their figures flashed and surrounded Yang Tian's group.
Although the four of them looked rough, they were very agile. In the blink of an eye, they had surrounded Yang Tian and the rest.
The four of them did not have any weapons. After they surrounded Yang Tian and the rest, their bodies started to change.
First, his hands and legs turned into sharp claws at an extremely fast speed. Black spikes grew out of his arms and legs.
Then, their heads became bigger and split in the middle. A head that looked like a crocodile's appeared.
During this transformation process, their height also increased by a lot, reaching a height of four meters.
They didn't completely transform. They only transformed into half-human, half-beast forms before stopping.
After transforming, the four monsters looked at Hui 'e and Chan Chan and saliva flowed out of their mouths. It was unknown whether they were imagining Hui' e and Chan Chan being eaten by them or smelling the fragrance of human meat coming from the big pot in the courtyard.
