The wind element detector couldn't help but make a buzzing sound. Jita was wrapped in a blanket and stared at the direction in which the crystals lit up in the dim environment. The dial of this simple detector had eight crystals. She looked at it.
Focusing on the one in the north, that one has not lit up for a long time, and there is not even a trace of background clutter.
Fang's voice came from the transmission tube: "Jita, have we gotten rid of them?"
"It seems to have been thrown away," Jita glanced at the crystal again, "Brother Ed, there has been no movement in the north."
Fang's voice of relief came from the microphone. Those Kaolin people chased them for two days and two nights, which made him almost think that the other party was crazy, and every time he asked Sylvide
When mentioning this matter, the latter smiled and said that it was probably because the Prime Minister valued her father too much.
However, he also thought privately that a hidden secret leading to the third world might indeed be worthy of such attention.
Luo Hao, who was outside, heard the conversation inside. At this time, he opened the curtain and walked in, interjecting: "Captain, if we get rid of the Kaolin people, I suggest that we stop for inspection. Before
I checked the pipe with the problem and found that the pressure inside was getting bigger and bigger, so I was worried about something going wrong."
"Okay," Fang replied. In fact, even if it is not undergoing maintenance, the Seven Seas Traveler has to find a place to rest. Because it was in a hurry when leaving Tansnir, the upper deck has not been completely built yet. It is usually fine, but if it encounters
What kind of bad weather can cause big problems?
However, there are timber and other materials prepared on the ship, so it won't take long to repair the deck.
Another point is that they also have to stop to look for supplies. There is still enough food on the ship for a week, but the water is really gone. They urgently need to find a place to dock and look for drinkable, clean water.
"Wait another hour," Fang looked at the clouds outside the window. "If there is no movement from the north after an hour, we will go down below the clouds first."
"No problem." Luo Hao responded over there.
An hour later, everything was still fine.
Xiang Xiang and Luo Yu got up, replacing Luo Hao and Jita who had been on duty for twelve hours. For the past forty-eight hours, they had been working in pairs to maintain the operation of the magic cabin.
On the sailing team, Baggins and Parker also changed classes with Big Cat Man and Pasha. In fact, the manpower of a team of two people is far from enough to control the eleven sets of horizontal sails, two longitudinal sails and six sets of sails of the Seven Sea Traveler.
A jib is needed, but this is only a last resort option due to insufficient manpower.
Moreover, it is barely usable even when the wind direction does not change much.
At this time, the Seven Seas Traveler began to slowly descend in altitude and passed through the cloud area.
Fang also rubbed his eyebrows. He had not slept for almost twenty-four hours. Others could take turns, but he, the one giving orders, could not do it. Sylvide and Baggins could take his place, but after all, they
I also have my own job.
After the sailboat broke through the clouds, the first priority was to figure out where they had arrived. Theoretically speaking, they sailed south for two days and two nights. If they didn't deviate, they should have entered the misty fjord.
That was the area they originally planned to choose as a shipbuilding site.
When the sailboat broke out of the clouds, Fang found that his premonition was not too wrong.
Under the clouds, heavy fog filled the air, like wisps of smoke. In the distance, you could only vaguely see the outline of the cliff, a steep rocky mountain, slowly passing under the Seven Seas Traveler.
The landform below is a typical empty gorge. "Sylweder," Fang said, "help us determine the coordinates."
The ship officer lady was in front of a standing cabinet. After hearing his words, she turned around and nodded slightly, put a roll of maps in, closed the glass display window, and walked back to the star tracker.
She observed the scale of the track erected above, then moved the horizontal track with her hand, and then picked up an instrument to measure it.
At this moment, Tianlan's voice came from the sound tube: "Do you think we are so lucky that we just happened to drive to the place that Miss Sylvide mentioned before?"
But Fang didn't expect their luck to be that good, otherwise the fjord that Sylvide mentioned could be used as a site for a shipyard, which would be an excellent place to rest.
However, the Mistyfjord stretches from Durin in the east to Nognis in the south, covering an area nearly one-third of the size of Istania. It is really difficult to sail to the right fjord within this area.
It's too difficult.
And the facts also shattered their illusions.
Sylvide straightened up from the star tracker. "We should be near d2340781 and d2350780. This place should be right in the middle of the Misty Fjord," she smiled, "it's quite far away from the place I mentioned."
In the speaking tube, Tianlan let out a somewhat disappointed "oh".
But Fang was not disappointed. This was a matter of course. He had no hope in the first place.
"Ed, this place is far away from the normal route," Sylvide looked at the star tracker and suddenly said, "Generally speaking, no ships will come here. It seems that we have deviated a lot."
"Is there any danger here?" Fang asked.
Sylvide shook her head, "I don't know much about this place either."
She said softly: "There are generally two routes through the Misty Fjord, east and west. The one to the east goes north along the Misty Fjord, passes through the southern foot of the Crimson Mountains, and then enters the southern border of Kaolin. The one to the west goes directly to Hanrui.
The open sea reaches as far as Nognis."
Sylvide raised her head and looked at the heavy fog outside the window, and continued: "People know very little about the Misty Fjord. Generally, few people come here. In the past, this was a hiding place for pirates. Later, even the number of pirates gradually decreased.
Already."
Fang frowned when he heard this. This place sounded like an inaccessible and unknown place. It was too troublesome to take risks in the fog, and the Misty Fjord had no special output, so the caller was willing to go there.
There are few people here.
This kind of place should be circled on the map with a thick, red pen, and then marked with the word "danger". But there is nothing they can do at the moment. The Seven Seas Traveler has to find a place to dock and rest, even though this place looks full of trouble.
"Let's move along the fjord first," he thought for a while and said, "retract the sails, slow down, and be careful not to hit the mountains. If we find a suitable place, we will stop to resupply."
All personnel on duty should be in the microphone.
After the sails were furled halfway, the speed of the Seven Seas Traveler slowed down. It would take some time for it to reach a height enough to see the land below clearly.
The lights in the kitchen were turned on, and the orange light cast into the clouds. Miss Aitila boiled water and prepared to cook. She had to prepare steaming food for two groups of people for twenty-four hours, and Tang Xin and Tang Xin were all involved in the process.
Ai Xiaoxiao helps.
Siesta brought hot drinks to the two people in the captain's room, and Fang thanked him and took it. He was not idle at this time. He checked the information about the creatures in the Misty Fjord on the community, and found out that this place is due to the year-round
Without sunlight, the surface vegetation and biological communities are actually quite poor, and most flying creatures live here.
This made him frown even more. As for flying creatures, wouldn't they also be a threat to the Seven Seas Traveler?
The horned lizard was crawling around on his desk, tilting its head and looking at him with dark eyes from time to time. Kitta placed its nest on the ceiling of the captain's room. This guest of the Seven Seas Brigade
It was here that I settled down again.
And he didn’t mean to treat himself as an outsider at all.
Nini and Miss Goblin were on the other side of the desk. She was lying on a pile of books, showing her white fangs, staring nervously at the uninvited guest, threatening it with her eyes not to come near.
Tata fiddled with a bare page in front of him and quietly helped him check things in the community.
Fang looked at the two little 'sisters'. Everything that happened in that world not long ago seemed to have no impact on them. After Nini 'ate' Descartes' magical power, except for the flames she spouted became brighter,
Apart from being a little more active when showing his teeth and flexing his claws, there seems to be no change.
The only change is that he can have some induction to his Cang Zhihui, but it is not as obvious as in Descartes' world. He planned to find a time to experiment, but obviously there is no such opportunity at the moment.
On the other hand, the abilities Miss Tata showed in the spiritual world at that time were naturally not something he could see again in the real world. But now that he has the Seven Seas Traveler, with the help of Fairy Heart, maybe Miss Tata can also
You can now exert one-tenth of your abilities.
This also requires finding time to test it properly.
As if sensing his gaze, the elf lady turned around and looked at him calmly with her emerald green eyes: "Mr. Knight, do you need to inquire about anything else?"
"By the way," Fang finally came back to his senses, "Please help me check the news on Istania. Are there any repercussions for our actions?"
Tata nodded quietly and turned around.
However, the search results are as expected. The information here should not have been sent back to Kaolin yet. People in Kaolin have not responded yet, and the community is also quiet.
But since he did that, he naturally expected the consequences, and the Kaolin Kingdom would be wanted sooner or later. The Super Competitive Alliance, because their previous negotiations broke down, might also come to trouble him.
He still had to explain to the Stargate Port that fortunately, his relationship with the military was probably the only consolation. If not, he would not have dared to make such a decision rashly.
In addition, the battle not long ago ended with Descartes' complete defeat. However, according to Xing, when the world collapsed, most of the people who stayed in it would never come back.
This made him think about the people of the Dragon Fire Guild. If they never come back, that means where did they go? Did they return to the earth, or did they disappear completely?
This question arose in his mind, and he couldn't help but want to ask someone from the military for confirmation. Of course, now was not the time.
After the Seven Seas Traveler parted the fog, the outline of the empty gorge below gradually became clearer.
This place is even more barren than imagined. There are only bare cliffs in the distance amid the heavy fog. The rocks are gray and form various shapes in the fog.
Those rocks with teeth and claws slowly retreated, silently, like a mime.
Fang looked at everything outside the window, and it was hard to imagine what supplies could be found in this place. However, the element detector on the ship detected a water element-rich area to the east, and he thought there might be a river there.
He didn't dare to think about food. He just hoped to find a clean water source in that place.
He ordered the Seven Seas Traveler to adjust its course, but soon they encountered the expected trouble.
That's an arrow nock.
Tian Lan first saw this huge bird flying under the side of the Seven Seas Traveler from the watchtower. The little girl was so frightened that she kept screaming in the sound tube.
"I saw a big bird," she shouted in horror, "It, it, its wings are as big as a sail. Come out quickly, is it going to attack us!?"
When Fang opened the door from the captain's cabin and came out, he saw Baggins looking up in one direction in the fog, and others were coming up from below the deck.
"An arrow nock." The experienced old sailor turned back and looked at Fang and said.
Fang knew that kind of creature, a giant bird of prey that preys on the open sea. It is usually accustomed to living in isolation and has a strong sense of territoriality. The adult level can reach level 27 or above, and can grow to one-third the size of the Seven Seas Traveler, and
It has a very high IQ and is a flying creature that is very threatening to sailboats.
He didn't expect that they were so lucky to encounter this thing right away.
At this time, the whistling wind came, and Fang raised his head and saw the raptor flying past the Seven Seas Traveler. It flapped its huge wings and rolled up vortices. Its wingspan was at least twelve meters long.
The giant bird passed over the sailboat, and its two iconic arrow tails disappeared in the mist in an instant. The air flow it brought up almost shook the Seven Seas Traveler.
Fang opened his mouth
An adult arrow tail, and it seems to be larger than an ordinary arrow tail. I am afraid it is an elite individual.
"We have entered its territory," Baggins said at this time: "Be careful, it may attack us next."
"What should we do?" Ai Xiaoxiao's voice was trembling. She didn't expect that there were so many dangers above Kukai. The giant bird's fangs and claws frightened her. When she closed her eyes, she seemed to have seen herself being killed.
As if swallowed.
"Just shoot it down," Parker said carelessly: "Use a ballista. Don't we still have a ballista?"
But Fang knew that this suggestion was purely a joke. It was impossible for the ballista to keep up with the speed of the arrow tail. Moreover, since the ballista was on the bow of the Seven Seas Traveler, the big bird would not easily enter the shooting range.
There was heavy fog at the moment, and it was difficult for the Seven Seas Traveler to keep up with the flexibility of an arrow nock. He glanced at the half-installed gun mount at the stern, and thought it would be great if the Magic Cannon from the Craftsmen Association had been shipped over.
It comes in handy right now.
Moreover, a batch of combat structures promised to them by Her Royal Highness the Princess also stayed with the Tansnir Artisans Association and came to nothing. They originally thought that they had sufficient funds at the moment, so these things would be wasted.
But I didn't expect that before I got to the next port, I would encounter an occasion where these things would be needed.
He had used all the flexible structures he had in reserve in the previous battle, but now he couldn't find any means to fight. There were still some 'Silver Bees' left, but they posed no threat to this big bird.
.
However, Fang was still calm. He looked at the mast first and shouted: "Tianlan, come down first, be careful it may attack you."
He immediately said to Baggins and the box: "Mr. Baggins, you go up, one on the left and one on the right, wait for it to come over and see if it can try to attack."
"No problem," Baggins was an old sailor after all. He responded, pulled out his scimitar, and climbed up the mast in three strokes.
Box also nodded silently, looking very indifferent, and walked over, just looking up at the mast in a daze.
Tian Lan was so frightened that she was hiding in the watchtower. After hearing Fang's words, she hurriedly responded, but with an expression on the verge of tears, "I, how should I get down?"
Luo Yu, on the other hand, raised his head and said, "Tianlan, you can just jump."
"Then I really jumped."
Tianlan cringed out of the watchtower and looked down below with a pale face, but she was still brave enough to close her eyes and jump out with all her strength.
But at this moment, with an eagle cry and a roar of wind, the huge raptor once again appeared from the side of the Seven Seas Traveler. It flapped its wings and swooped down towards the blue sky in mid-air.
Tianlan had already opened her eyes when she heard the sharp cry, and almost screamed in fright when she saw this scene: "Help!"
But Fang had already expected this scene, thinking that the cunningness of the arrow tail was indeed well-deserved. At this moment, a gunshot sounded from behind him, firelight burst out, and a golden light crossed the giant bird.
The tail of the arrow flapped its wings to avoid the shot.
It turned around in mid-air and looked down. In its dark pupils, a very beautiful lady was holding a silver firearm. She was pulling the bolt, and a golden shell bounced down with smoke.
.
But before it could make a decision to swoop down again to retaliate, Baggins on the mast turned the scimitar back and bit it in his mouth, then with a forceful movement, he swooped down from the air.
Pounced on the back of the huge raptor.
The arrow tail obviously did not expect that there was a person on top of the mast. He turned over in shock and wanted to throw Baggins off his back in mid-air. But the boatswain grabbed his long feathers and took it from his mouth with his backhand.
When you lower your machete, you have to stab it with one blow.
The bright silver light reflected in the eyes of this flat-haired monster. At the last moment, it had an idea and slid sideways towards the mast. Baggins slashed it, although the strange bird would probably pay for it, but he hit it head-on.
Going up the mast, I'm afraid it's going to be a disaster.
"Mr. Baggins," Tian Lan fell slowly after Luo Yu cast a wind feather technique on her. She raised her head and saw this scene. She couldn't help but yell, "Get out of the way!"
Fang also shouted: "Mr. Baggins, get out of the way!"
The boatswain turned his head to look, and had no choice but to give up the inevitable blow. He stretched out his hand, grabbed a cable that came across, swung it in mid-air, and dropped it back to the mast.
The arrow tail chirped triumphantly, looked back, and immediately prepared to turn around in mid-air, and then stretched out its sharp claws to pounce on the bosun. Birds like the arrow tail are extremely aggressive and have a strong sense of revenge.
But when it turned halfway, the box below suddenly shot under the first mast with an arrow. He drew out his rapier with his backhand, a flash of silver light flashed, and the cable tied there broke.
The sail, which was rolled up in mid-air, dropped with a roar and covered the tail of the arrow. No matter how cunning the big bird was, it could not have expected this scene, and it was covered on the spot.
Its wings were entangled in the sail, and it suddenly lost its balance and hit the bow of the Seven Seas Traveler. The huge impact almost made the sailboat sink, and it tilted towards the ship with a creaking sound.
The direction of the bow.
Everyone subconsciously grabbed the railings or cables around them. Fang used his backhand to catch Ai Xiaoxiao, who was sliding down in that direction. At the same time, he shouted to Luo Yu:
"Trapped it!"
In fact, he didn't need to say anything. The moment the arrow tail hit the ground, Luo Yu had already raised the elemental staff with one hand.
