The helicopter covered in water all over the body extended the outskirts of the island, circled around, and finally landed at the northernmost end of Skull Island.

The mountains of this island end here. Under the erosion of the sea, there is also a small beach here, which looks like the scene of some tourist islands. In the place where mountains and beaches alternate, there is a white building hidden in the forest.

It looks like a large villa, an apron, a garage, and a small marina, where two small boats are parked.

When the helicopter landed, next to the apron, a man and a woman were waving towards the helicopter. Although they were wearing T-shirts, shorts, slippers, like backpackers, they were actually researchers who were stationed on Skull Island by the Imperial Organization.

“It’s Mark and Emma.”

Dr. Serizawa, who walked off the plane, introduced the researcher who looked like a couple to Merlin, and said:

“Mark and Emma are both outstanding biologists. Mark himself is a photographer who is responsible for collecting any valuable clues on Skull Island, while Emma is responsible for finding and locating various native species and dealing with native indigenous tribes.”

"Um?"

Merlin supported Hill with a pale face and said in confusion:

"There are indigenous tribes on this island? What do you mean, humans?"

"Of course there is!"

Vivian, who helped Dr. Serizawa carry his bag, said:

"The reason why the Imperial Organization believes that kong can become a friend of human civilization is not based on fantasy, but a conclusion drawn from reality."

"When we first explored Skull Island in 1973, we knew that there was an indigenous tribe of nearly 3,000 people in this island. They worshiped Kong as a god and occasionally sacrificed to Kong, and Kong also accepted their worship and even consciously protected them."

"There has been reached between these indigenous people and kong, the first vassal and the vassal relationship!"

Emma of the Institute observed Merlin while helping the seasick Hill up, she explained:

“If kong can accept the existence of these indigenous people, it means that it can also accept our existence.”

"Alien biologist, Merlin Nicklas Grant."

Merlin stretched out his hand toward Dr. Emma in front of him and asked softly:

"And I'm curious, do you mean to "accept" to us, like the natives, to worship Kong? I don't think the big men in Washington and London would like to like this "accept" way."

"Of course not."

Mark next to Emma walked forward, he held Merlin's hand, and he said:

"What we hope to establish with kong is an equal relationship between demand and demand. After all, we can give kong more than those indigenous people."

“It’s too idealistic.”

Merlin shook his head, and he followed Mark and Emma into the villa in front of him. As he walked, he said to Dr. Kindze beside him:

"Based on my experience and lessons from my years of research on alien creatures, I have to advise you not to have such idealistic ideas. First of all, what we give is not necessarily what kong needs."

"Secondly, heterodoxes like kong, or Titans, must have their own values, and the values ​​of beasts and human values ​​have never been the same."

"Oh, what do you mean?"

Dr. Serizawa seemed to be very interested in these things, he asked:

"Can you give an example?"

"The simplest example is a unicorn."

Merlin was in his pocket and talked to the four biology doctors around him:

"Doris and I have tracked a young unicorn in Wales and are extremely lucky to have contact with it. You know, in the myths that ordinary people hear, unicorns can distinguish people's hearts and only allow pure virgins to ride on it, but what is the real situation?"

Merlin smiled and said:

"The real situation is that if a unicorn had to carry a person, it would instinctively choose a minor girl, because in all comparisons, the minor girl weighed the lightest, and the unicorn didn't like to weigh dozens of kilograms out of thin air. So in theory, it should choose Doris instead of me."

"But I 'bribed' it with a bag of pine cones, so the young unicorn chose me among me and Dauris, and carried me gently through a small forest."

"What I want to say is that don't use human ideas to guess the minds of aliens. They often think about problems more easily. Just like kong, you hurt it 22 years ago, it has been holding a grudge until now, and it is very likely to continue to hate outsiders unless you regain its trust with some behavior."

Merlin turned her head and looked at Dr. Emma, ​​and he said:

"As for what you said, it is nonsense to form a relationship between demand and demand with kong. This island is its home, and it is the king here! It has everything. So, what should you use to bribe a king who likes freedom? Should you use an inexhaustible banana?"

"You guys think too simple about the problem."

After Merlin finished speaking, she went to see Hill, who was suffering from the sequelae of seasickness. The young girl had to recuperate in this villa for several hours after the bad journey just now.

"unicorn?"

Dr. Emma said to Dr. Serizawa with a skeptical look on his face:

"Doctor, when will you start recruiting such civil scientists? Look at what he gave, it's awful."

"Yeah, he looks like people who are immersed in his fantasy."

Mark also said to his wife with agreement:

"I don't think it's a good thing to let him come here."

"Dr. Merlin is a true heterobiologist!"

Dr. Serizawa lowered his voice and gave his companions a few winks, saying:

"He successfully helped us solve the problem of not being able to get close to Raton, which gave us hope for our research on Mona Island. I brought him to Skull Island, and hoped that with his research results, we could get a method to get close to Kong and study these Titans at close range."

"But what he said"

"Hey, man."

Just as several people were discussing, Merlin had returned to them at some point. He held a glass of water and said calmly:

"You should know that even if I lower my voice, I can still hear it?"

Now, several people became embarrassed.

But Merlin ignored these questions. He picked up his backpack and said to Dr. Serizawa:

"Let Doris rest here. I'm going to see some of the ecology of this island. The strange plants and animals you mentioned, I need to collect some samples."

"Now?"

Dr. Serizawa looked up at the sky and said:

"Then I'll go with you."

"Bring a weapon! Doctor."

While Serizawa and Merlin were leaving, Mark came over with a black shotgun and said to Dr. Serizawa:

"Don't go deep into the island. If you encounter any situation, just call a signal flare. We will pick you up immediately. In the past few days, the island has not been peaceful."

"Um?"

Dr. Serizawa's expression immediately became serious. He took the weapon and looked at Mark:

"The demons from the ground have appeared again?"

"It's hard to say now."

Mark also replied with a serious expression:

"In the past two days, we have seen kong inspecting the island several times, and we have also heard kong roars when fighting with some creatures. It should be that those underground creatures have reappeared, but the time is not up to the 10-year deadline."

"Well, it must be Godzilla's sudden appearance that disturbed those monsters."

Dr. Serizawa said softly:

"The chain reaction, the awakening breath of the king, made the lower monsters feel fear. This is normal. Don't worry, Mark, we will not be close to that burial land."

Merlin listened to Serizawa's communication with Mark. He heard something, but he did not ask immediately. Instead, he got on an off-road vehicle with Serizawa and walked along the coastline all the way into the nearest mountain.

"parking!"

Meilin suddenly raised his hand, and Dr. Serizawa immediately stepped on the brakes.

Merlin jumped out of the car and walked quickly to the edge of the terrain similar to a swamp next to him. He carefully put on his gloves and pushed away the weeds in front of him.

By the water, Meilin took off a plant with white petals but no leaves and rose-like thorns on the branches, put them in a wooden box, and put them back into a backpack.

Beside him, Dr. Serizawa finished reading Merlin's actions in full. He didn't ask until Merlin had finished collecting:

"What's this?"

"The lunar flower is the raw material used to make chameleon potion."

Meilin stood up, and he looked at the vast grassland and hills in front of him. His eyes were shining with joy, and he said to Dr. Serizawa:

"The moon flower is on the verge of dying outside the world, and can only be found in some off-the-scenes places. But look here!"

Merlin pointed to the swamp in front, and at the edge of the swamp, he looked at at least a dozen such white monster flowers. He rubbed his hands and said softly:

"You are right, Serizawa, this is a treasure house, a real treasure house!"

Dr. Serizawa is paying attention to another point, he asked:

"Chameleon potion, what is that?"

"It's what you need most now."

Merlin looked back at him, then made a tiptoe move, he said:

"This kind of potion, like a cooling potion, has a special effect after taking it. It can allow ordinary people to have hidden powers like chameleons in a short period of time, and it can allow your researchers to easily penetrate the island. Unless Kong sees you with his own eyes, it will only treat you as some kind of animal in the forest."

“Kong’s sense of smell is very keen.”

Dr. Serizawa reminded:

“It’s not just relying on hearing and visual action.”

"Chameleon potion can block the breath. By adding different raw materials, your breath can be transformed into different beasts."

Meilin moved his fingers and said to Serizawa:

"That was what I did when I was tracking dangerous thunderbirds in North America. I even managed to touch the thunderbird's nest and believe me. As long as kong doesn't see you with his own eyes, it will never find any abnormalities."

"The problem now is that if I want to disguise myself as beasts on the island, I have to take some of their blood."

Meilin looked back at the endless hills behind him, and shook his finger:

"A little blood is enough, and it will never affect their physical health. It is best to be the common, docile creature that appears anywhere in the island and will not cause doubt."

"Seenzawa, do you have any recommendations?"

Meilin looked at Dr. Serizawa, who frowned and thought for a while, then took out an oversized anesthesia gun from the car behind him, threw it to Meilin, and waved to him:

"Come with me, there is a creature that meets your requirements and is in this swamp."

Serizawa led Meilin and followed some marks drawn by the emperor organization on this swamp that he did not want to be away from the beach, and went deep into the green grassy swamp.

A few minutes later, they arrived at a pool.

Merlin noticed that there were some trees on the water that looked like collapsed, covered with moss and some old fabrics. In the dark perception that was always open, Merlin could still notice that under this pool, there was a giant creature hidden in the water.

The activity of life is obvious, just like a burning flame in the darkness.

Meilin set up an anesthesia gun, and Dr. Serizawa squatted down and patted it lightly in the water.

The next moment, the "trunk" standing across the water surface slowly raised, and the water in the entire small pool was pushed to the sides. In the low sound of water, a huge creature nearly 6 meters tall appeared in front of Meilin and Serizawa.

It was a buffalo about the size of a reef in the sea.

Its body is covered with algae-like things, with a mane wet with water on its black skin. On its head that looks like a buffalo, the horns that have grown for countless years have grown into shapes similar to tree trunks, constantly extending out of its slender small corners, intertwining each other, and they are really like collapsed tree trunks.

According to Meilin's vision, the moss-covered cow horns are nearly 15 meters long.

The creature seemed to have just been awakened from its sleep. Its two yellow pupils were moving, looking blankly at Dr. Serizawa and Merlin in front of him.

"Moo"

This huge creature didn't seem to care about the two humans in front of it. It didn't have much wisdom light in its eyes. After looking at each other for a few seconds, it turned around and seemed to be planning to sink into the water in another direction and continue to sleep in its own sleep.

"We call it the 'Lone Reef Bull Demon'."

Dr. Serizawa took a step back and looked at the behemoth weighing at least 20 tons in front of him, and he whispered:

"It is a herbivorous creature with great strength, but a gentle personality. On the other side of the island, the natives also tame it as a pack beast. This buffalo exists in every watery place on Skull Island, but it is almost the lowest level of the food chain here."

"Are you sure kong's recipe doesn't have it?"

Merlin aimed at the buffalo in front of him with an anesthesia gun and asked softly:

"I don't want you to be hunted for by kong as a dinner."

"Kong likes to eat aquatic creatures, it likes things like swamp giant squids and nightmare squids, it doesn't eat buffaloes."

Serizawa explained:

"In fact, we think kong treats these lonely reef bull demons as their own 'subjects', and Mark has captured the image data that kong helps these creatures escape from the trap."

"good!"

Merlin nodded, and he pulled the trigger, and the anesthesia gun in his hand made a low buzz. The three anesthesia needles that were enough to anesthetize an adult elephant within a few seconds accurately pierced the butt of the lonely reef bull demon.

The sudden pain caused the docile creature to roar in a low voice, but before it could turn around, the super-strong anesthetic had already taken effect.

"Bang"

It fell to the pool, like a collapsed hill, and its body was still trembling.

Merlin handed the anesthesia gun to Serizawa. He took out a small test tube, walked towards the buffalo, squatted down, and began to take blood in an orderly manner.

Just as Merlin finished taking his blood and was about to stand up, a strange hissing continued the rapid vibration of the ground on the other side of the swamp and came into Merlin's perception.

He raised his head suddenly and looked to the other side of the swamp. In the dark perception, some huge thing was rushing quickly towards where Meilin and Serizawa were, in the sense of darkness.

Merlin's hand went deep into his pocket, and he turned his head to Serizawa who was holding the shotgun and said:

"In this neighborhood, except kong"
