Treasure Hunters, Sail the Blue Sea

Chapter 308 Swamp Fisherman
The Voice of Dawn circled the edge of the emerald green swamp at an unusually slow speed.

Everyone on the deck looked at the swamp not far away.

"How? Where are we landing from?" Jason looked and asked.

The landing on this piece of Zehai is completely different from ordinary islands.

They have to think before acting cautiously.

Alka raised his palm, and the map appeared in his hand.He opened the map and looked at the area of ​​the land of all spirits.

Although this map is huge, it is similar to a world map after all.The tiny islands in the area are not marked in detail.

Fortunately, the production of this map has the participation of the Church of Our Lady.

Therefore, in the area of ​​the Land of All Souls, the information on the map is quite detailed, and the existence of islands in safe areas in this area is clearly marked with paintings.

Where are they, and how far apart are they from each other.

The most ambiguous place is the border between life and death.

There is nothing there, only a few locations on the periphery are marked.

The Land of Emeralds is better than the Boundary of Life and Death, but not much better.

Now the only ones who still maintain the enthusiasm for exploring this Zehai are the explorers and scholars of the Holy Machine Church.

The high death rate in this area still scares away too many people.

Looking at the islands of the land of all spirits.

Since they came from the junction of life and death, they can accurately identify the area they are in now.

At the junction, it's unquestionable.

After reading it, Alka clicked on a place above the area that was clearly marked as an island.

"Let's go here first."

According to speculation, this island should be the nearest island to their current location.

Xia Daiti was watching from the side, and nodded when he heard Alka's words.

Then Alka looked at the crowd and said: "We are going to land, everyone is ready, this time there will be no one on board."

Zehai's range is too large. Once they go deep into the interior, it will be difficult for Voice of Dawn to support them.

The entangled vines restricted her movement, and the Voice of Dawn only needed to be on the outskirts of Zhehai, maintaining a certain speed to move around Zehai.

in the direction closest to them.

Around the periphery, at least it is safe, and there is no need to worry about irreversible damage to Voice of Dawn.

It's a ghost ship after all, with a mind of its own.

After Alka finished speaking, everyone began to prepare.

Zehai is no bigger than other islands, no matter how big the other islands are.

The area of ​​Zehai can compete with that of the mainland, so they must bring enough supplies to avoid lack of food due to the unfamiliar terrain on the way.

Pocket rings are limited in size.

Did not prepare for how long.

About two hours later, the Voice of Dawn slowly docked at the edge of Zehai.

After docking, you can clearly feel that Zehai is moving.

The hatch at the bow opened, and the Feiyan sailed out.

It can't drive a big ship, so there is no problem with such a long boat.

Because this is a ship born for speed.The spell above can keep the whole ship from drafting too deep even though it has a certain load.

However, the range of ships is limited, and the Puppet Knights account for a large part.

There are some supplies piled up on it, but not many, more of a disguise.

Xia Detti sat on the bow of the boat, and the faint silver ripples went deep into the water from her position, and explored the surrounding environment through the bottom of the boat.

Pororo, Materisa, and Julia walked directly on the swamp.

Under the emerald green vines, some dark green sea water was reflected, probably not reaching their thighs.

Some areas are not very resistant, and sometimes they sink deeper, and can even spread to the chest and abdomen.

In some shallower areas, ships have to go around.

Because there is no calf at most.

Julia directly transformed her legs into fish tails.

This made the driving speed of the three sea-dwelling races in the sea not slow, or more freely.

It is easy to catch up with Feiyan.

After all, this place is not a wide sea area, and Feiyan cannot be allowed to sail at full speed at will.

Just keep it low, and under control keep it a little faster than you can run.

Except for Xia Daiti, Jason was the only one on board, and Juanlu and Alka were still on board.

Simon was riding in a structure he had just constructed, a large patrol aircraft.

With a seat just enough for him to ride, he floated about seven or eight meters above the sea.

The flying platform he built for himself.However, the settings and some parts are not conceived very cleverly, resulting in a low flying height.

However, under the control of treasures, he will get a breakthrough in the limit, so it is still very practical for him personally.

There are also six sentinel patrol planes floating above everyone's heads, vigilant about the surrounding situation, and patrolling non-stop.

A bright stream of light streaked across the sky, and the crystal dragon flew down, circling above everyone's heads.

From time to time, it flies down like a sharp arrow, then slides across the water and climbs quickly.

At this time, the size of the crystal dragon has completely surpassed that of Jason, not counting the tail.

The body length has completely exceeded two meters.

With the addition of the tail and the wide and bright crystal wings, it seems that it has begun to take the embryonic form of a dragon.

Now Xia Daiti is at the helm, guiding the direction of everyone's progress.

"This place is exactly what other people said. If you really rely on your legs to walk, you will easily fall into a bottomless abyss."

Xia Daiti can roughly judge the surrounding terrain accurately through the silver ripples.

These vines seem to be tough, but in many places, there are very fragile holes.

If you walk over, you will accidentally step on it.

It was like walking on land suddenly and stepping on a pothole, and fell straight down.

Because of the special structure, it will also generate a suction force, which will be dragged down by the vines and the suction force in an instant.

Listening to Xia Daiti's words, Julia next to her was shaking her fish tail in the water.

Because the sea water is clear, under the sunlight, the fine scales on the fish tail can be clearly seen, and the shimmering light shines through the sea water.

Julia poked around the sea water with her hands.

Said: "Through some changes in the water flow, these cavities can be detected. The sea water above the cavities is different from the sea water above these vines with strong bearing capacity."

It is better to take a boat, a small boat can simply solve the inevitable danger of life.

It can also make their driving in this area more comfortable.

Jason leaned on the edge of the boat, constantly observing the situation below the sea.

The clarity of the sea, the vines that are not too deep from the sea, and the underwater clusters of various aquatic plants are clearly visible under the sunlight.

"Aren't there too many sea fish in this place?" Jason turned his head to look at several people and asked.

Furthermore, in the gap between them and various aquatic plants, Arka saw many sea fish swimming comfortably in it.

It's like a vibrant scene.

Especially around Julia, surrounded by a lot of sea fish, protecting her like guards.

She also just stretched out her hand and stroked the scales of the sea fish around her.

"These vines do make a nice ocean bed, don't they," Julia said with a smile.

They're driving on it.

But the driving speed is not much faster after all, even the Feiyan, which is known for its speed, still can't do it.

Because their draft can't be too deep, and they must control some spells to prevent the bottom of the boat from completely contacting the aquatic plants and vines below.

This results in slower speeds.

"According to the current driving speed, it will take us about 10 days and nights to reach the island."

Hearing this, it is still within the range that everyone can accept.

It's just that the way forward is a bit novel.

……

"There is a situation, be careful."

Simon, who spent most of the time sitting in the air in the aircraft, suddenly said.

The Sentinel patrol plane above him in the sky around him noticed the movement in the distance.

Hearing this reminder, everyone below immediately became vigilant.

"Captain, do you need us to investigate?"

Nine, flapping her wings like a dragonfly, asked while standing beside Lucilia.

A pedal capable of flying fast is a good scout in situations like this.

Hearing this, Alka next to him shook his head.

"No, the efficiency of Simon's structure detection in this environment is enough."

Doll girls with small size, subjective initiative and extremely flexible, even if there is a line of sight blocked.

Is the best scout player.

With the endless sea of ​​Zehai as far as the eye can see, a patrol aircraft that can fly directly at high altitudes is obviously the best choice.

Mainly the ones released were pure recon builds... well, cheap.

It doesn't hurt to lose.

"It's a humanoid creature, about 2 kilometers away from us in the direction of 00:5, the distance is relatively far, and it looks a little blurry.

He was driving slowly towards us in a small boat. "

Simon reported the situation to everyone through the remote observer of the structure.

In order to avoid alarming the enemy, she did not bring the structure closer, and just observed it in a safer range.

Alka raised his right hand slightly, and snapped his fingers lightly.

The pink mist rose and diffused, and after dilution, it merged into the air.

However, the people in place did not notice any other changes.

Xia Daiti looked at it when he lifted himself up, and finally thought of something, and asked, "You made us invisible?"

Alka nodded.

Although Xia Daiti at this stage can also make everyone invisible by controlling the light.

But this way still has too many flaws.

The invisibility formed through the pink clouds of dreams is more deceptive and can deceive the senses to a certain extent.

Stay where they are.

Simon also raised the reconnaissance structure in the sky to a higher level and hid it.

After a while.

The person riding on Xiaozhou was driving slowly in their direction.

This should be a humanoid creature, wearing clothes that look good.

Under the sunlight, the clothes still shone with luster, as if they could reflect light.

The clothes are close-fitting, and judging from the wrinkled scars on the exposed arms, this seems to be an old man.

The skin color looks a little strange, giving people a kind of gray-green gray-green feeling.

The small boat he was riding in was also very small, probably only able to hold about two people.

He was sitting on the bow of the boat, holding a long thing like a fishing rod in his hand, and waving it lightly.

He could see the undulations of the water around him.

"It's fish... There are many fish around him, and they are of the same species."

Julia, who had already noticed something, said.

Hearing this, everyone looked to the past to observe.

This person gives the impression that he seems to be... herding fish.

If it was fishing or fishing, his boat would not be clean, without any fishing equipment.

Alka silently put on a pair of glasses and looked around.

Look at the magic beside the old man.

"The strength is not strong, probably in the second stage."

"Do you want to make contact?" Xia Daiti asked softly.

Hearing this, Alka nodded: "Go and get in touch."

After speaking, he waved his hand lightly, and the pink weapons floating in the air slowly gathered and returned to Alka's palm.

Everyone also showed their figures.

Seeing the moment when everyone suddenly appeared, the old man who was not far in front of them was obviously taken aback.

"Ah... ah!"

The canoe, which was already small, began to tilt under his sudden violent shaking.

He was so frightened that he fell directly into the water, and the sudden movement frightened the densely swimming fishes around him.

The entire sea surface began to fluctuate violently.

Countless fish can be seen leaping from the sea.

He quickly stood up. Due to his height, he only exposed his upper body. He picked up the long pole in his hand and swung it quickly.

The fish below immediately calmed down under his swing.

The strange clothes on his body, after the stained water droplets, reflect a more obvious luster.

Water droplets slid down his clothes.

This is some kind of waterproof clothing material.

He finally breathed a sigh of relief when the fish subsided completely.

He moved his body slightly, exposing a part of his body behind the boat, and looked at Alka and the others.

"Who are you? Why did you suddenly appear here?"

His tone of voice was a bit strange, but Arka could understand what he said.

Because in the earliest days, this is what Lucilia said, which can be regarded as Lucilia's mother tongue.

The lingua franca derived from the Sea of ​​All Beings.

The people on board may not know other languages, but the lingua franca of the four sea areas plus the language of the white crocodile used to describe secret messages are the languages ​​that people on board must learn.

So when this person speaks, everyone can understand.

"Julia, go talk to me."

Hearing Alka's words, Julia nodded.

The language used by this person is the common language of the sea area of ​​all living beings, so it must have a certain connection with that sea area.

This place is so full of vitality, it must be said that this place has nothing to do with life, no one will believe it.

Shaking the tail of the fish, Julia slowly swam over.

At the same time, he opened his hands slightly, lifted them up and shook them, indicating that he was not carrying a weapon, nor was he malicious.

Said softly: "We have no malicious intentions, we just bumped into this area while sailing at sea.

Some curious to see. "

This is not uncommon.

Hearing this, the old man in front obviously believed it, and gradually relaxed his vigilance and stood up slightly.

The moment he stood up completely, his eyes widened suddenly, as if he saw something extremely frightening.

Pointing at Julia, trembling all over, with a look of horror on his face.

"You...you are human, mermaid."

As they spoke, they gradually changed from panic to anger. Under such mixed emotions, he tightly grasped something like a fishing rod in his hand.

To Julia.

Then he rushed towards Julia as if he had made up his mind.

Seeing this obviously attacking action, everyone in the rear was ready to attack.

Alka raised his hand slightly, stopping everyone from moving.

"I'll come, don't worry."

Said jumping off the boat.With a leap, he jumped directly to the side of Julia, and then stretched out his five fingers to face the rushing person.

Pink clouds protruded from his fingers, and quickly surrounded his ears and around his head.

The originally angry and terrified emotions calmed down immediately, and stood there a little confused.

Alka quickly turned to Julia and said, "Put the fish tail away."

Julia nodded, and the fish's tail turned into a pair of white and slender legs and stood in the water.

Alka controlled the cloud and mist to wrap around, whispering non-stop in the old man's ear.

"It's all a dream...it's all a dream, everything just now was fake, it was just a nightmare..."

The pink mist entangled and dragged it to the back of the ship, allowing it to regain its previous posture and movement.

In the end, Alka immediately returned to the original place.

Gently raising his hand, the pink cloud that was originally wrapped around the enemy's head disappeared immediately.

The originally confused old man's eyes quickly regained clarity, and he looked around with a little doubt.

He rubbed his head without leaving any trace, and looked at everyone.

Then slightly stood up.

Before Julia could speak, Arka walked over from the water.

"Don't worry, I'm from the Church of Our Lady."

After speaking, he raised his right hand slightly, and a faint holy light ball appeared in his palm, swaying the pure white light.

This is a relatively simple spell that is a signature of the Church of Notre Dame. Apart from being able to dispel the evil around it, it only has the attribute of lighting.

With the appearance of this scene, everyone could clearly see that the old man changed from vigilance to relaxation.

He turned over and got into his own boat.

"It turned out to be members of the Church of the Holy Mother, have you been involved in Zehai?"

"Yes, but this time I met it and I'm curious about this area, so I'm going to take a look and gain some knowledge."

Hearing this, the old man nodded, smiled and waved the fishing rod in his hand.

The boat moved slowly.

"It's not very safe here, come with me, I'll take you to the village."

Everyone was separated from each other, and followed Alka's gesture.
