The ship is rising steadily, as if it is traveling between clouds. The clouds below are thousands of kilometers wide. It is like a mirror is paved under the clouds, showing a smooth blue color.
The sky above our head is constantly changing colors, from deep to light blue, and a majestic aurora wanders between the sea of clouds above and below, like a giant snake, winding across.
That's just an anomaly caused by the ether wind passing through the elemental layer.
The sailor was climbing on the rope ladder of the sidestay, looking at the colorful light, and said to Xia Yue with some excitement: "Sir, we should be about to float to the shallow current layer."
Xiayue had not yet recovered from the previous thrilling situation. The stormy scene under the Sea of Elements made him feel sour in his stomach and made him feel dizzy.
When the rocking of the ship became more stable, he suppressed the nausea in his heart and asked, "What does that mean?"
"It means we are about to leave the elemental layer soon," the sailor's eyes flashed with incredible light: "We should have passed through the Masar Passage. Legend has it that it is the most dangerous and unpredictable of the three passages to the Abyssal Sea.
Ichigo. I have heard legends about it since I was a child, but I never thought that someone could actually lead us through it without any danger."
"Any near miss?"
Xia Yue's stomach couldn't help churning. He still remembered the scene of the fleet passing by the edge of the turbulence zone that was several kilometers wide. The overwhelming clouds and waves were pressing down on them, making him almost think that they were about to be doomed.
Already.
He was holding on to something tightly the whole time to prevent himself from being thrown away, but the sailboat under his feet was always in danger of capsizing. This fragile man-made thing seemed to be completely submerged under the sea of clouds in the next moment.
But it often passes through the clouds in a violent turbulence and reappears above Kukai.
In the face of the mighty power of nature, mortal creations have no power to compete, as if they give people the feeling that they are nothing more than dust.
The thrills during that period should not be known to outsiders. Although he put down his big words, he finally had to retreat below the deck to avoid danger. He also quietly prayed to the Lord of Storms, the god who controls disasters and sea monsters.
Ichiban.
Although no one told him that the only icon on the ship was the one belonging to Lady Mirella in the Resurrection Room, he didn't know if the Goddess of Life was willing to send a message to him.
But no matter what, this can’t be considered a near miss, right?
After listening to Xia Yue's description, the sailor couldn't help laughing, "Life hanging by a thread? Haha, you really know how to joke, sir, it was just a small storm. I once encountered
Being in a storm is a real challenge, but compared to the storms on the ocean, it is nothing. I heard that in such a storm, it can even roll up dozens of meters.
High cloud waves come and throw the sailboat into the air, and then it falls back to the sea... Even a really experienced captain may not be able to survive such a storm."
Xia Yue's face turned a little blue when she heard that. She couldn't imagine how they should protect themselves in such a situation. They could only pray for the blessings of the saints. No wonder the sailors are the group that believes in the saints of Orin the most, because they walk in Kukai
Above all, perhaps it means leaving one's destiny in the hands of the gods.
"But the dangers of Marsar Passage may not be any less than those of sailing in those places. I don't know how many sailboats have disappeared on this channel in the past ten years," the sailor said with a bit of admiration: "But also
No one can escape from this channel unscathed. Ten years ago, the legendary captain went from here to the bottom of the abyss. That time, when everyone thought he had been killed, he was intact again.
The earth appeared before everyone."
"Now it's just the reincarnation of history. We are crossing this channel again under the leadership of his daughter. It is said that there are people who can tame the dangerous sea. Those who control the unpredictable changes of the sky and the sea. That gentleman
Yes, the same goes for his daughter. Perhaps they know this sea area well and can lead us to avoid every danger without any danger."
"But was she also on her father's boat ten years ago? She was not even ten years old at that time. How could she be familiar with this sea area?" Xia Yue asked curiously.
"There are rumors that she has traveled to various places with the legendary captain since she was a child, and learned a lot of knowledge on the ship. People on Sir Mawei's ship all call her 'Miss' or 'Little Captain'.
Of course, there are also rumors that she grew up in a manor in Avenquin and accepted the inheritance of the elves. She does seem to have a good relationship with the heroic princess of the Battle of Byrne."
The sailor replied: "But I prefer to believe it is the former, otherwise everything today cannot be explained. Some people are born to be ship commanders, just like this lady. In the past, people said that she would inherit her father's mantle.
Now it seems that this is indeed the case. I’m afraid it won’t be long before there will be another great explorer in Kaolin-Ithurion.”
"What a pity," the other party sighed: "If Sir Ma Wei were still here, we would have two living legends."
"This legendary lady is wanted by your king." Xia Yue thought to herself.
Of course, he wouldn't say such disgusting words to his face. He just felt a little uncomfortable when he thought about the frivolous actions of the descendants of Flor, and his opinion of the Prime Minister's party also became bad.
The Super Competitive Alliance colludes with the Crow's Claw Temple. God knows how much the Chancellor's Party knows about this. Are they also involved?
Xia Yue became distrustful of these people. He couldn't help but wonder why the descendants of Flor were not so lucky. If they could also meet this young lady, perhaps they would be the ones leading the situation in the North right now.
However, he also understood that this was just his wishful thinking. It was impossible for a descendant of Flor to support the daughter of a political prisoner despite the prime minister's lack of cooperation. What kind of strength did this young lady have? Even her father could not tell the truth.
Just a somewhat legendary captain.
But what puzzled him was how the little-known adventurous group that had been employed by Jefflett's red team, and the penniless newcomer who came from it, got in touch with the daughter of the legendary captain.
Relationship?
Where did he get the approval of the three goddesses?
It is rumored that the royal family of Istania seems to be secretly supporting them.
In just one year, what exactly has the other party experienced? What happened to him seems to be difficult for ordinary people to achieve re-election, but how come they are all concentrated on one person?
Xia Yue found it hard to understand such a thing for a while.
"Lu Ji!" The sailor suddenly shouted, interrupting his train of thought.
Xiayue raised her head and looked at the ridges that plunged straight down from the clouds, like the reflection of the undulating mountains, a faint outline emerging in the sky.
That is the upside-down mountain on the underground edge of the floating continent.
He looked left and right and saw other sailboats protruding from the clouds. The fleet was leaving the elemental layer. The other party was not exaggerating at all. He really took them out of trouble.
But when Xia Yue looked at the light blue changing outline of the continent, her feelings were somewhat indescribable.
Everything he saw in Gula Port could not help but reappear in front of his eyes again, the burning port, and the city guards swallowed by the purple tide.
Even if someone could stop all this, it would have nothing to do with them.
The descendants of Flor are destined to be nailed to the pillar of shame in history.
He dared not imagine what it would be like if the entire Northern Territory would become like this. Can the descendants of Flor really afford the loss of countless human lives?
What exactly did they bring to this world?
Xiayue never thought that one day he would become an executioner, or at least an accomplice. Wasn't he involved in everything that happened to those who passed away and the broken families behind them?
The target they captured was trying their best to save everything, and they stood on the label of villain in front of everyone.
Still complacent
Xia Yue couldn't help but think bitterly about how all this happened. They were just trying to restore the glory of the third division.
But can they really regard those things that have disappeared as cold numbers? Can they really attribute the destruction they have caused to an unreal world?
But it's all so real.
So that they cannot find a proper and reasonable excuse for everything they do.
When he saw all this happening with his own eyes, when he saw with his own eyes the supporters of the descendants of Flor wavering and collapsing, just like the silent barrage in the live broadcast room, everyone asked themselves about their conscience, but they could not escape.
The scenes that carry the meaning of demonstration are now bloodyly displaying good and bad, right and wrong. Right and wrong, black and white, return to their original definitions in front of the public.
So some lies naturally collapsed.
Just like the broken voice that Xia Yue heard in his heart at this moment, he sighed deeply. Some things could no longer be changed. He didn't even know whether what he did was right or wrong.
But the only hope is that at least some of it can be redeemed, more or less, even a little bit, so that for the descendants of Flor, some crimes can be eliminated for everything they believe in.
Maybe the other party can really succeed, at least partially. Even if it's not the best result, he is willing to give everything and try his best.
If that would be his last battle in this world, then he at least hoped to give himself an explanation and an explanation for everything that happened in Gula Port.
Xia Yue looked at the edge of the continent that was gradually becoming more real, pressed her hands tightly on the side of the ship, and couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
…
"We have entered the shallow level of the elemental layer."
Sylvide looked at the wind element concentration reading in the meter, her beautiful eyes lit up slightly, she turned around and said to Fang Plover next to her.
Fang Yu was focusing all his attention on a map of the Northern Territory. The lamp hanging on the horizontal plane was swaying with the hull of the ship. The light passed through the grid and cast an interlaced shadow on the map.
He then raised his head and asked softly: "How are the other ships doing?"
Miss Ship Officer nodded, smiled and said: "Fortunately, Miss Tata contacted all the ships before, and only three ships fell behind, and the other two ships lost contact."
Fang Plover's eyes showed surprise. He was well aware of the risks under the elemental layer. For this improvised fleet, this loss could almost be considered as no loss.
In fact, everyone had expected this before entering the Yunxia Passage. Those experienced old captains were even more like Ming Jing. It was impossible to pass through the Yunxia Passage without loss. Their psychological bottom line was actually 100%.
About twenty/twenty.
Anyone here may be a decimal point among the 20%, but the outcome of staying in Gula is certain death, so everyone has to accept this gamble.
But the current result obviously exceeded everyone's best expectations. After informing each other, noisy voices came from the communication crystal.
Those were almost all lines of congratulations and thanks from the presidents of various guilds, the leaders of adventure groups, and the captains of various ships. In their words, there was no lack of respect for Sylvide, and of course the other party also also
Pay attention to it.
Above the Kukai, those who can tame the sea will naturally gain the respect of others.
As for those fleet commanders who can lead the fleet through storms and overcome obstacles, they are natural leaders in people's minds.
No one knows how far such a person will grow in the end. Maybe one day the other person will be the next legendary captain, a big ship captain, a great explorer. Maybe his own ship may cooperate with the other person in the future.
Therefore, everyone is willing to show kindness to such a person.
Not to mention, Sylvide is the daughter of the legendary captain, and the fleet he led was once the strength of the entire Corin-Ithurion. As for how far his daughter will grow in the future, perhaps from
You can find out something about the other party.
With the standard of reference, even though Miss Ship Officer is far from showing the outstanding abilities of her father, the presidents and captains present are willing to give this future possibility a face.
What's more, the other party did lead them out of the predicament.
But speaking of it, what everyone was actually more curious about was Tata, Fang Plover's Miss Dragon Soul, the little girl who gave them orders in a stormy sea with a tone that was as plain as boiled water.
The so-called ability to remain calm despite the collapse of Mount Tai is just a description. Even the most experienced captains will inevitably feel nervous when facing the dangerous environment below the elemental layer. They may be able to remain calm, but it is absolutely impossible to behave.
It feels like having afternoon tea at your own home.
But Miss Tata obviously behaved like this, so they were very curious about how the other party could be so calm, as if the stormy waves were just small splashes and she had long been used to it.
Moreover, the other party's theoretical knowledge is quite solid and she knows everything about sailboats. Sometimes the instructions she gives are more concise and precise than those of the most experienced captains.
Although they were only commanding from a distance, it was as if they were actually on their ship, watching the sailors' operations in person.
This brought everyone a shock rather than a surprise.
But Fang Yu couldn't explain to these people that she was actually his Dragon Soul Miss, and his Dragon Soul Miss had always been like this. Not to mention the storm on the sea, not even facing a dark god could stop her.
The tone of voice fluctuated slightly.
What's more, the Fairy Dragon Soul was originally born for sailboats. After Miss Tata practiced it on the Seven Seas Traveler, even Mr. Baggins was resigned to her.
Think about it, how can a human be better than a computer? Ms. Tata is like a supercomputer specially designed to control sailboats.
However, Fang Yu's vague words only aggravated the doubts of others. They even suspected for a time whether Sir Ma Wei had more than one daughter?
When everyone congratulated Fang Plover, their tone was almost envious. How virtuous and capable is this little guy, to be able to win the favor of Sir Ma Wei's two daughters at the same time?
So the way they looked at Fang Pliong seemed to be not limited to the leader of an adventure group, but maybe the future leader of the ship group, or even the next Mawei Albert. Under him was the future Kaolin Yixiu.
Ryan's most outstanding navigator is the daughter of the legendary captain, and the other daughter is the commander of one of the best squadrons. With such talents at hand, why worry about not making great achievements one day?
So much so that the guild presidents' congratulations to him became a little subtle.
However, Fang Yu himself didn't realize this. He was in a state of despair. Escaping from Gula was just the beginning of his plan. There were still things to do right now.
The clockwork goblins that were thrown out had been eroded by the high concentration of wind elements, so he had to take them back. They were collected from all the alchemists in the fleet. He wanted to send another batch.
Out of stock.
Fortunately, after entering the shallow layer of the elemental layer, this thing is no longer needed, and the semaphore and fleet communication between ships can be restored.
Another thing is to quickly determine their location and how far they are from Elpaxin. Escaping from Gula does not mean safety. At this moment, the Crow's Claw Temple has opened the passage between the two worlds, and they may be able to do so at any time.
Collided with the Shadow Man's fleet over the northern border.
Also, get in touch with the Seven Seas Traveler
However, the last item cannot be realized until they leave the elemental layer. The elemental layer naturally interferes with external communication methods.
If we say that the fleet was still dominated by Silver Veslan at the beginning, but now, relying on the identity and performance of the ship officer, Fang Pliance's words have become quite weighty.
Of course, generally speaking, he is not a fleet commander, and he can say what he says. However, at Guangran's suggestion, they formed a temporary discussion group and brought in the captains of each ship and the president of the guild, so that everyone could
Discuss and assign next tasks.
Fang Yu remembered that he happened to have such a communication channel, so he simply pulled the others in. There were a lot of gray names in the communication channel, which he had pulled last time under the heart of the giant tree.
The people who came in, but because they are too far away, they can no longer be contacted at this moment.
After entering the communication channel, everyone didn't talk too much. They just listened to Fang Pliong assigning tasks one by one, and then each took their orders.
Half of Fang Piao's arrangements came from Sylvide. Due to their previous experiences, most people were convinced of the ship officer, so they didn't have many objections.
What's more, these arrangements are all meaningful, and the tasks are often specific to the business, and they only need to be carried out. If they were normal, they might still consider the gains and losses, but in the current situation, they obviously have no time to argue about this.
In the end, even Guangran was a little surprised. He couldn't help but ask in the communication channel: "Mr. Ed, it seems that you are quite talented in leading the team. Do you want to consider joining our Silver Vislan?"
Come, we will give you a place in the tour group."
Before he finished speaking, a deep woman's voice came from over there: "Mr. Ed, don't listen to this guy's nonsense. How can he, a branch president, be qualified to make such a promise? Besides, the internal competition in Silver Wisland is fierce, and the brigade
The qualifications of the team are nothing at all. How many talents and resources can you get? But we are different. We can truly train your team as the core."
"Skylark," Guangran gritted his teeth: "You are also the president of the branch, and don't forget what good things you did in the Dawn Star incident. Qin Zhi doesn't need me to tell you..."
"Guangran, you"
Fang Piao listened to the two people arguing in the channel and couldn't help but one was the bigger one than the other. He was not here to listen to these people robbing people. He even rejected the weird woman from Elite without hesitation, and then
How can you change your mind so easily.
He hurriedly advised: "You two, don't argue anymore. I think we should resolve the current crisis first and then discuss other matters."
"The most important thing for us now is to determine the location. If you want to help... why not explore the nearby situation first. Other guilds and teams are not as good as you. Your fleet should be the first to reach the sea of clouds.
above."
"Of course," the deep female voice replied without hesitation: "Mr. Ed, just leave this matter to us."
Only then did Fang Plover respond with a headache.
He raised his head and looked at the ship officer next to him, but saw that the other party looked at him and smiled slightly, but there was a tired look in her eyes. Fang Yu couldn't help but asked with some heartache: "You and Tata
Miss, do you want to take a rest?"
In fact, Miss Dragon Soul is okay. As long as he can bear it, Miss Tata can maintain this state. But crossing the channel under the elemental layer is by no means an easy task, especially with a whole fleet.
Even though Sylvide had been here once before and her father had left notes for her, it was still a very draining task to concentrate on commanding without any accidents happening.
Sylvide smiled softly and shook her head: "It's nothing. I just stay here with you for a while. I can relax by the captain's side."
Fang Yu blushed when he heard this and couldn't help scratching his head.
