After thinking of new possibilities, Lawrence used divination three times in the six or seven hours before dark. As expected, the location pointed to by each of the three divination results was different from the other two.
.In other words, the target point this time is indeed an active location.
"Your Excellency, are you saying that we find another active target?" When Lawrence showed the captain of the Enterprise the data he analyzed, the captain also showed a curious look. After all, for him, he
I have never had this kind of experience tracking a moving object outside the visual range before.
"If the divination results are correct, this should be it." Lawrence pointed out to the captain the opponent's route map that he had previously analyzed using the divination results. "I connected the four points that were detected before and found that
The other party seems to be conducting some kind of random voyage."
"Your analysis is correct, my lord." The captain frowned and said after looking at it for a while, "The other party's route is very strange. It is impossible to tell where the other party's destination is. At the same time, the other party's speed is also very strange. From our 1/
3's speed is the same as ours, I can't figure out why the other party wants to sail like this?"
"New telegram." Just when Lawrence and the captain began to analyze the situation of the target they were tracking this time, the sailor in charge of the telegraph room on the ship came in and handed Lawrence a telegram full of garbled characters.
Speaking of. "The telegram just sent from the Passion Church."
"How is that possible?" Lawrence frowned after simply translating the telegram, because the telegram showed that a scheduled passenger ship located in the sea area he had just sailed a few hours ago had found part of the hull on the sea. After inspection, it had been
It was determined to be the ship that John and the others boarded before, but no bodies were found around it.
"John...he..." After Lawrence finished translating, Leisuo read the contents of the message translated by Lawrence at a glance and said to Lawrence in disbelief. "Is the message true? Can they be sure that they have found it?"
That boat was really the same boat that the expedition took.”
"The identity of the ship can be 100% confirmed, because one of the ship planks they fished out from the sea has the name of the ship written on it." At this point, he raised his head and looked at Lei Suo, "But this does not mean that John and the others have already
After all, you saw the shipwreck, and the telegram also said that no body was found beside the ship."
"The most important thing is that when I divined the target of their team just now, there was a prerequisite that they must still be alive." Lawrence turned around and patted the shoulder of Lei Suo who looked sad and comforted. "So.
Don't cry now, they must be waiting for our rescue somewhere."
"You're right." Leisuo nodded. Just now, he was just confused by the bad-sounding news. After being comforted by Lawrence, he calmed down, and then his whole body quickly recovered.
He looked full of fighting spirit before. "It's not time to give up yet, we should cheer up."
Next, Lawrence divined on average every two hours to re-lock the opponent's target. From more and more information, almost everyone on the ship realized that the team was not completely wiped out as in the telegram, but was still
Track your target alive while waiting for rescue.
In this way, the special sense of mission caused the morale on the ship to rise visibly. Especially after they sent their own analysis telegram to the church, they were informed that the church was now manning the suspicious areas they had planned before, and this
For suspicious areas on the border, we can only rely on them.
Fortunately, although the target's fastest speed is about the same as Lawrence's ship, it sails at an extremely low speed in most cases. So after nearly two days of chasing, Lawrence and the others finally approached.
to the destination that had been moving before.
"There is... an island in front of us." Because they were close to their destination at this time, and the sky was slowly getting dark. So Lawrence and the others had to slow down the speed of the ship to avoid accidentally running aground on the rocks. As they carefully searched
At that moment, a shout suddenly came from the mast observation deck.
After hearing the shouts, Lawrence and the others ran onto the deck, and sure enough they saw a black shadow vaguely appearing on the horizon far away from the port side of the ship. It should be a small island. However, after careful observation, they unexpectedly saw that
The island actually moved slowly on the horizon.
"Is the legend true?" After confirming that they had indeed encountered a moving island, a young sailor on the boat exclaimed in a low voice. Then after everyone asked, this man from previous generations was in this sea area.
A sailor who was a native fisherman told an ancient legend on the Sea of Stars.
"When I was young, my father told me that there were some very dangerous places wandering in these waters." For safety reasons, the Enterprise slowly stopped, and then people who were not on duty gathered around to listen to the sailor.
Tell the story of this sea area. After the overall arrangements were made, the sailor stood in the middle and started telling.
"There are huge whirlpools in these places, as well as bottomless sea eyes, and even the entire island is a huge life. Sometimes it will suddenly wake up and swallow all the life on the island. But in these terrible places, there will be
The island you move on is one of the most dangerous in the world."
"According to my father when he was a child, his great-grandfather once worked on a whaling ship, and it was on that ship that he saw a moving island." The sailor said, "He said that the island was in this area.
Wandering on the sea. At the same time, it will seize the opportunity to attack all nearby ships and life."
"He told me that the whaling ship my great-great-grandfather was on encountered a moving island and killed two whales and was about to stop to refine whale oil, but at that time the moving island suddenly appeared.
The impact destroyed the ship he was working on. Fortunately, he was thrown off the deck and drifted on the sea for two days before being successfully rescued by a passing ship."
"Did you just say that you suddenly appeared?" After listening to this short story, Lawrence found something suspicious in it. But just when he asked the question, the lookout on the mast who was observing the surroundings suddenly shouted at the top of his lungs,
"Warning, the island ahead is sinking."
"Your Excellency, we must move now." The sailor looked at Lawrence and said, "My father told me that the mobile island attacked me when it attacked the whaling ship my ancestor was on, and it suddenly emerged from the water and launched an attack.
Attacking."
"What?" After hearing the news, Lawrence immediately rushed into the cab next to him and shouted to the captain. "The mobile island may sail underwater for a while and then suddenly appear and attack. We must move quickly now.
Just move."
"Understood." The captain also knew that the matter was urgent, and some things would rather be believed than believed. So he immediately shouted to the brass microphone next to him that was connected to the power compartment. "Now increase the horsepower to the maximum, let's
You may need to run for your life now."
Because there was still a relatively high pressure in the boiler even when it was anchored, the sailor working in the power compartment only needed to close the main shaft clutch, and the propeller began to rotate. Then he pushed the sharp inclined bow to stir
A little wave of waves drew an arc on the sea and drove in the direction it came from.
At the same time, Lawrence summoned the phantoms of the aquatic monsters and ordered them to start scouting the surroundings to avoid being raided by the strange island from underwater.
