Rebirth begins at Skull Island

Chapter 137 Skull Island, I, Stainless Steel, am back!

Tuesday, December 12, at 5:25 am.

Weather, cloudy to sunny.

With the hot sea breeze blowing head-on, and the calls of unknown seabirds in his ears, Rhodes, who was sitting on the bow of the warship, let out a breath while swinging his legs.

Today is his third day at sea, and he should be less than fifty miles away from Skull Island.

Thinking of the scene where he asked the president to sign for him in the White House three days ago, he couldn't help laughing.

Although he was indeed looking for the president at the time, he did not expect to be pushed to the front by the tour group, and then led by the president's bodyguards to line up and ask for the president's autograph.

Fortunately, the black president was quite enlightened at the time. After knowing that he was here to discuss things, he immediately stopped calling for help from the National Guard.

Otherwise, the White House, the official residence of the President of the United States, may have to be renovated.

Even the president may be replaced.

If that's the case, Rhodes probably can only run away.

Fortunately, their conversation turned out to be relatively successful.

At least preliminary agreement has been reached on some key issues.

For example, Rhodes requires that family members and friends should not be involved in anything, while the government requires that no anti-human things such as killing innocent people be allowed at any time.

It’s no problem to finalize the general direction.

Later, there were still differences on some minor issues.

For example, the president asked Rhodes to help the government do some 'small' things within his capacity when necessary.

Knowing the tactics of the American government, Rhodes refused this request.

And Rhodes hoped that the government would allow him to enter the nuclear waste warehouse or other places with stable radiation.

Also rejected.

The reason is that everything related to nuclear energy is the top secret of the state, including nuclear waste.

Fine.

The refusal was also expected by Rhodes, and it did not affect the overall situation.

The overall conversation has also achieved his original purpose of coming to the president.

It allows him to go back to Skull Island to find Big Brother without worrying too much about the situation at home in Los Angeles.

however.

The government was surprisingly easy to talk to, which was beyond Rod's expectation, while Ellie's hard talk was also beyond his expectation.

There are many words saying that the island is dangerous and foreign countries are unsafe.

Hearing Rhodes rolling his eyes.

nonsense!

Whether the island is dangerous or not is up to me.

As for foreign insecurity.

Well.
Right.

To those foreigners, I seem to be quite insecure.

Fortunately.

Under the premise of Rhodes' repeated assurance that he would come back as soon as possible, Aaron was also fanning him beside him.

Ellie finally agreed to Rod's trip.

But there are conditions.

That is, you can go out, but you must take the satellite phone with you, and you are not allowed to turn it off.

And every night before ten o'clock, a phone call must be made to indicate safety.

Fine.

In order to promise Ellie not to shut down the phone, Rhode bought a small solar generator and a few spare cell phone batteries.

Of course, while in the supermarket, he bought a bunch of delicious snacks by the way, and planned to take them over to share with Big Brother.

Thinking of Ellie's reluctant appearance before departure, Rhodes was both amused and moved.

As for the school, he handed it over to Aaron, and before he left, he talked to that little fatty Tucker, who asked him to bring back some special products.

Gee.

The fat man probably thought he went to some tourist attraction, right?

What are the specialties of Skull Island?
Lone Reef Bull Demon?

Ancient saber-toothed tiger?
Why don't you bring him two dinosaur eggs?
Just when Rhodes was still thinking about what to bring back, a black spot appeared on the sea not far away, and as the ship approached, the black spot became bigger and bigger.

Thunderclouds!
Skull Island has arrived!
Rhode stood up with a 'shua' sound, leaned on the bow of the boat, and looked into the distance.

The black cloud visible to the naked eye lay there like a wall, and the flickering lightning flashed across the surface of the black cloud.

After a while, when the warship was about one kilometer away from the thundercloud layer, it began to stop slowly.

"Sir! The speedboat is ready."

At this time, a man's voice came from behind, but Rhodes didn't even look at him, and casually dropped a sentence:
"no need!"

After saying that, he jumped into the air with all his strength, and then switched to beast form the moment he fell into the water.

"Pfft!!!"

The huge waves pushed the warship to shake from side to side, and many people on board ran out of the cabin in shock, looking around vigilantly.

However, when they saw a huge giant ape swimming in the sea, they were all stunned for a moment.

"Wow! Crack!"

"Wow! Huh!"

Rhodes in beast form can swim no slower than a warship.

After a distance of several hundred meters, he swam to the front of the thunder clouds in a short while.

When Rhodes was about to pass through the thundercloud layer in his beast form, a strange scene occurred.

When his hand just touched the thundercloud layer, suddenly there was lightning and thunder, and a large number of lightning gathered from around the thundercloud layer and attacked Rhodes.

"Crackling!"

A large amount of lightning hit his fingers, and the stinging sensation made him subconsciously retract his hand.

however.

As soon as his hand left the thunder cloud layer, those lightning bolts disappeared in an instant.

What do you mean?
Skull Island’s new security door?

Have you only been out for a few months?

Is the trick so deep?

Rhodes didn't understand the meaning of this thunder cloud layer at all.

When I was swimming in it back then, it seemed that no lightning struck him!
But why now, he is back and starting to hack him?

Should not be!

Rhodes tried a few more times in disbelief, and the results were without exception. As long as he entered the range of the thunder clouds, the lightning would attack and strike like a shark smelling fishy.

Could it be that the position of the door is wrong?

Rhodes tried to swim to the side, but the lightning next to him was even more powerful, and his little Rhode almost stood up!

Otherwise, it's the way to enter the door, isn't it?
He thought about it, and there was only one possibility.

Immediately, Rhodes switched back to human form.

As a result, as soon as he returned, a big wave hit his forehead.

"Goooooooooo!"

Rhodes drank a big mouthful of sea water, the salty smell almost made him spit out the old bread he ate in the morning.

"Boundary fruit!"

The first thing it did when it surfaced was to take out the water gills in the space and put them in its mouth.

this will.

Rhodes felt more comfortable, sank underwater, and swam towards the thunderclouds.

Ten meters, five meters, three meters
When Rhodes swam to the edge of the thundercloud, he slowly stretched out his hand.

As a result, his hand stretched out without any hindrance.

At this moment, Rhodes seemed to understand the role of the thundercloud.

Block it?
He thought for a while, but in the end he didn't go into details and began to swim inside hard.

After swimming for an unknown amount of time, Rhodes seemed to see some light ahead.

With excitement, he accelerated the frequency of his limbs swimming.

After a while, when he swam to the bright position, he floated up immediately.

"puff"

The first time he got out of the water, Rhodes focused his attention on the distance.

A green island with clouds and mist floating in the mountains, exotic birds circling and flying, and full of eyesight, stands in front.

Skull Island, I'm back!
