Krober, who had sent all his soldiers out, was not idle either. His intuition told him that there must be a secret on this small green leafy island.
Although he didn't know what it was, he just had this intuition.
Ever since he landed on this leafy island, he had always felt like he was being watched.
But strangely, he didn't feel any threat, just felt that there was a creature secretly observing them.
Judging from experience, this vague feeling of being watched indicates that there is definitely a predator on the island.
It's just that the strength of this predator is not very strong, so it gives him a sense of being watched rather than threatened.
Kroeber speculated that the predator should be a creature living on this leafy island, or the leafy island itself.
At present, there is nothing unusual in the edge areas of the island, but this does not mean that the center of the island is also safe.
Perhaps this predator is hiding somewhere in the center of the island, waiting for its prey to come to it.
Although Green Leaf Island is a small island, its area is similar to that of Black Feather Island. It will take some time for Krober to explore every corner of it clearly by himself.
What's more, Green Leaf Island is a forest terrain, so it takes more time to explore than a plain.
Therefore, it is very wise to let soldiers explore the edge areas first.
Kroeber waited on the island for an entire afternoon.
During this period, he carefully observed the ecological environment of the island.
It was discovered that the most abundant plants on this island were not the big trees, but the Venus flytraps distributed densely in the grass.
This grass is just similar to the Venus flytrap in Kroeber's previous life, so Kroeber named it the Venus flytrap.
As to whether it catches flies and whether it can digest them, Kroeber has not yet conducted a detailed investigation into this issue.
Anyway, when Kroeber put his finger on it, the Venus flytrap showed hunting behavior.
“Since there are Venus flytraps, it means there must be insects on this island.
I haven't seen any at the edge of the island. Could it be that they're concentrated in the center? Then how do these Venus flytraps at the edge survive?"
Krober didn't expect that the Green Leaf Island, which he didn't care much about, actually looked even weirder than the Scorched Earth Island.
As the sky gradually darkened, the soldiers sent by Kroeber returned to the ship safely.
After an afternoon of exploration, the soldiers also conducted a preliminary search of the western part of the island.
The result was just as Kroeber expected. No living creatures were found in the entire western area of Green Leaf Island, only a large number of plants.
"Sir, I have discovered something strange."
One of the soldiers returned with a new piece of information for Kroeber.
"Oh? Mace, tell me!"
Krober knew this soldier and was even familiar with him.
His name was Mace, a name given to him by Kroeber himself to recognize a great contribution Mace had made before he even joined.
He was the first one to sign up when Krober recruited the first batch of new soldiers from Amethyst Island.
Since a major purge of the Sea People's resistance forces had just been carried out, and it was also the first time to recruit soldiers, those tribesmen might not even know what it meant to be soldiers.
So Kroeber personally sat in charge of the recruitment office that time in order to ensure order at the recruitment site.
Order is guaranteed.
He remembered clearly that the tribesmen of the Sea People looked at him with eyes mixed with fear and awe.
But here comes the problem.
No one is willing to come to the recruitment office to sign up for military service!
Yan was anxiously trying to mobilize his tribesmen, but he was no longer respected by them.
So Yan's words didn't have any effect.
It was thought that the recruitment would end in failure, but at that moment, a skinny boy who was younger than Krober walked out of the crowd.
He said something timidly to Krober.
After Yan's translation, Krober realized that the young man was asking whether he could have enough meals every day if he joined the guard.
Although Krobo gave some food to the Sea People tribe at that time.
But the food was only provided to healthy members of the tribe. The young man was obviously very thin and looked like a marginal person abandoned by the tribe.
Although the Sea People Tribe is relatively caring towards the elderly, the weak and the sick, they only provide basic food that will not starve them to death. It is still quite difficult to get enough food.
And Krober told him very directly that as long as he joined the guards, he would not only have enough food to eat every day, but also have the opportunity to become a knight.
How could the boy, who couldn't even get enough food at the time, resist such temptation? So he directly joined Krober's guards.
And Krober kept his promise and prepared enough food for the boy, placing it directly at the recruitment office so that the boy could eat in front of everyone.
It is not known whether it was the food that tempted them, or whether they realized that Krober was not a demon king who only knew how to kill and behead people, but the tribesmen of the Sea People finally let down their guard and chose to join Krober's guard.
And that young man was Metz.
Whether intentional or unintentional, the appearance of Mace helped Krober to gain control of the tribesmen more quickly.
So Krober not only gave him the name of Mace, but also taught him the breathing method of the Radiant Spirit's apprentice knight stage.
Mace also gave Kroeber a big surprise. After a short period of sufficient food intake, Mace not only became stronger, but also completely got rid of his original sickly appearance.
