Tagus lowered his head and looked at the compass: "To the north of Rosalin, judging from the reference point on the west coastline, it should be not far from the Jade Hill."
"Shouldn't this route be busy?"
"Theoretically, it should be, but maybe because of this ghostly fog, the fleet heading towards Swift Plains was also blocked on the other side of the fog."
"Mr. Installon, does your statement have any theoretical basis?"
"It's just my guess, beautiful lady."
Delphine came to the other side of the ship's side and scanned the rugged coastline on the west side of the Wagtail Channel. There was a continuous sea cliff and rocks, and the waves broke into the rocks to form a thin white line.
The jagged coastline and dense reefs on the west coast of the Wagtail Strait are also the reason why this area is wild, otherwise it would never be so barren as the Swift Plains across the sea.
But this coastline is not without good harbors, otherwise there would be no route to talk about. At least Rosalin is one, and there are also the territories of the undead lords and deep-water ports in the north.
"What are you looking at?"
Others were not very familiar with Delphine, but Brando was now closer to her. When he saw the latter's expression, he understood what she should be thinking.
"Something strange."
"strangeness?"
The prime minister's daughter nodded slightly, and she gestured to the sailors not far away. Although it was an undead fleet, there were also professional sailors, some inherited knowledge from their lifetimes, some were trained the day after tomorrow, and so was Madala.
Have their own navy, otherwise they would not be able to cross the sea to attack Saint Osol and then receive a sea chart from the latter.
She opened the chart and drew a line from it: "The closest thing to us in the north is Teweed Island. There is a port of the dead between this island and Sesam, but there is not a single ship on the sea nearby.
It’s so abnormal.”
"It's not just a ship." Instalong ignored Tagus's murderous gaze, turned the blade upside down, inserted it on the deck with a 'taut' sound, then stretched and said: "On the nearby coastline
It’s too quiet. Don’t you think it’s abnormal?”
After his reminder, everyone realized that they had not seen any ships on the sea near Rosalin before. They could also understand that because the Rosalin port was blown up into the sky, the ships parked in the port naturally followed.
It's over. And the ships coming from the east side of the Wagtail Strait were blocked on the other side because of the fog, so naturally there was no sail on the sea.
But now the fleet has been sailing north for almost three days, and it can be said that it has arrived near Sapphire Hill. Unlike Rosalin, this area is the busiest sea area on the Wagtail Strait, not only the ocean departure from Sapphire Hill.
Ship groups, in fact, the largest number of ships on the sea in this area are small merchant ships that shuttle between Madara and Swift Plains.
Naturally, these merchant fleets not only set off from Sapphire Hill, but also returned from Madala. How could it be so coincidental that not a single ship could be seen on the sea to the west of the Wagtail Strait?
What's more, even in the territory of the undead, there are actually humans living, especially in places like the Swift Plains. The relationship between the humans of Madala and Jiufeng is relatively harmonious. Since the two sides have business and trade exchanges, it is difficult to go to the west coast.
Avoid traces of human activity.
But my eyes have already approached the territory of the undead, but the west coast is completely silent, and not even half a human being can be seen. This is a bit too weird.
Everyone couldn't help but look at each other.
"What's going on?" Mr. Liu also thought of this, "When my lady and I passed by here before, we could still see a lot of merchant fleets."
"Maybe they all returned to Hong Kong because of the fog."
"Then there should at least be fishing boats."
"That's true..."
Huang Huo looked at Instalong: "Mr. Installon, have you noticed that something is wrong?"
Instaron shrugged: "Isn't this obvious? My dear little lady."
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"Because it's not necessary," Tagus mused: "According to the plan, we have to go to Gusair for supplies, so anyway we will know what happened on this sea by then."
"Where is Gusair?" Brando asked.
"That's the port Ms. Delphine mentioned."
"It's actually very simple. There's no need to make such a fuss," Instalon interjected: "We don't necessarily have to go through the fog, we can just go overland."
"By land?"
"I agree with this view," Delphine nodded. She looked at the chart and then replied: "By taking the land route through the south of the Sea of the Dead Moon, you can reach Set, the Port of Everlasting Death and the Deadwater Bay.
You can take a boat from there or go directly into the hinterland of Madala, but in this case, Miss Huanghuo and Mr. Liu may have to take a long detour."
She looked at the two masters and servants on the side of the ship. Mr. Liu and the little princess of the Yufeng clan looked at each other, and the latter shook his head and said: "We have nothing to do, Sister Delphine, if it weren't for the star fall."
, we would also go to those places."
"Wait, going to the hinterland of Madara?" Brando interrupted the two of them. Although he had a plan to go to the hinterland of Madara, he never told the prime minister's daughter about this plan. In theory, they should be
You have to go to Eruin.
What's more, if you take the land route, wouldn't it mean that you have come full circle and come back to the starting point?
He suddenly felt a little pain in his balls.
Delphine put away the chart with a swipe, folded it twice, then raised his head and said: "What is your opinion, Lord Count?"
On the surface, she is still the daughter of the Prime Minister of the Empire. Because she has dealt with the old Marshal Blanc before, she still calls Brando Mr. Earl in front of others, but in private, she directly addresses him as Lord.
Already.
"This..." Brando suddenly saw Delphine bending down to put the chart on the wooden table. She turned around and winked at him with her back to the others.
Brando certainly wouldn't think that the prime minister's daughter's playful gesture was coquettish to him.
He pondered for a moment and realized that he could not find out the origin of the mist. To be cautious, the suggestions of Instaron and Delphine were naturally more appropriate.
At the same time, he also asked the other party in the spiritual communication: "What's going on?"
"The Mystery of Jade." Prime Minister Qianjin frowned nicely, as if she hadn't fully mastered this ability yet, so she only answered in four words.
"It's in Madala?" Brando was surprised.
But he suddenly realized that the player who obtained the Stasis Realm in history didn't get it from an undead lord in the south of the Sea of Dead Moon?
"are you sure?"
"Believe me, Lord."
Brando nodded silently. During the period of time when the prime minister's daughter cooperated with him in Port Fatan, her ability was far from outstanding. And she was also very famous in history. Cruz's flower of wisdom.
, quite popular among Cruz players.
On the other hand, in terms of route selection alone, Installon also expressed the same opinion. These two geniuses in history reached an agreement unanimously. This heavy weight is not something he can easily despise.
.
"In any case, let's go to Qusayr as originally planned."
Brando took one last look at the sea fog and made his decision.
Although they are now on the ship of Madara's undead, in fact, after Brando woke up, the command of the fleet returned to his hands. After all, he and Blanc together were enough to dominate the ship.
The fate of everyone on these two ships is up.
What's more, out of some different thoughts, the two people in charge of Madara, Tagus and Instaron, did not express any objection.
that's all.
Throughout the day, from noon to afternoon, the fleet continued to move towards Teweed Island according to the scheduled route, and until sunset, no one on the ship, including the undead sailors on the watchtower, saw the sea.
Any ship other than theirs appeared on board.
In this weird atmosphere, the setting sun sank from the west under the jagged coastline. After nightfall, the stars rose, and the sea near Taweed Island seemed even quieter.
There are no dinner parties like those on a floating ship on a small sailing ship, and the undead don’t need food. Therefore, the only survivors on the ship bring their own dry food. Only Brando and Delphine have special treatment.
Gus took special care of the humans he captured from the ghost car.
I have to say that in terms of these details, this vampire nobleman does not compromise the style of the old-school nobleman at all.
But even so, the food is not necessarily rich. For example, Brando and Delphine's only dinner right now is a smoked mackerel, coated with grapefruit juice, and served with an avocado.
If necessary, you can also add some bread slices and butter, but Brando really disdains these junk foods, and since he is already close to a perfect body, there is actually little need to supplement these foods.
On the contrary, the prime minister's daughter ate very delicately. She sat at the table with a very decent manner, carefully tore off the smoked fish meat piece by piece, then put it into her mouth with a fork and chewed it carefully. It looked very pleasing to the eye.
"Lord, don't you use it?"
"I don't have to."
"Do you want me to serve you for dinner?"
"You think too much, Miss Delphine..."
The light of the candles in the cabin flickered, and the two of them occasionally had such meaningless conversations.
Brando once thought that Antitina was already a model of aristocratic daughter, but compared with Delphine, there was really a gap. The way the prime minister's daughter ate showed that she was from a noble family and she was very picky about her food.
It can be said that except for the most delicate part, most of the fish meat was discarded by her.
Although he was very restrained and did not speak, he could also see that the other party was obviously very dissatisfied with the dish.
He really doubted whether this woman could fill her stomach with such food, so he couldn't help but shook his head, then picked up his plate of fish and handed it over.
Delphine was stunned for a moment, then raised his head and looked at him with charming eyes:
"Do I need to say thank you?"
Brando shrugged.
"I would rather you said something else, Miss Delphine."
"for example?"
"About the Mystery of Jade."
Delphine paused for a moment, then reached out and brushed the hair in front of her forehead: "I understand..."

(ps: There are still a lot of gentlemen in the group. My classmates, after all, this benefit was promised to you a year ago. In fact, I didn’t want to write about it at first. Since it took so long to compensate you, don’t push it too far.
Classmates, I don’t want to die yet. In addition, the little prince said he doesn’t want to be a king, so what the heck does he want to be a queen? What about your moral integrity?) (To be continued.)
