Chapter 24 The Road to Exile I
“Ascending fourteen.”
"Half-full sail."
The Seven Seas Traveler's No. 1 is shaking up from the sea of clouds.
After sailing under the sea of abyss for two days and nights, they reached the boundary of that passage. The element detector detected that the wind elements ahead were decreasing, which meant that the Qihai Traveler might be entering the static wind layer.
Although the passage is perpendicular to the wind element layer, they can turn around or continue to go down and hide in the sea of abyss for a while. But Fang Zhu thought this was not very meaningful. They left Orenze and sailed south for four days. Even if they advanced slowly in the wind element layer, two days under the sea of abyss were enough for them to leave the range of the Orenze people's search.
Staying under the Abyss Sea will not make them safer, but will bring danger. The Floress and other guilds who arrived one after another will make the outside air sea full of fleets and eyeliners searching for them. They can think of entering the Abyss Sea to avoid pursuit, and others are not fools.
Those who pursued them may even enter here to find their traces. The Orenze people may not be able to find suitable ships and people for a while, but this does not mean that the giant Flores, the giant, cannot do it. They can always find sailboats that are big enough to be strong enough, and with experienced captains and sailors who have also been to the sea of abyss.
Although this abyss sea seems deep, it is a small pond enclosed by the quintessence layer. When the people of Flores enter, what is waiting for them is to catch turtles in the jar.
Their only chance is to leave Orenze the farther away from Orenze before the others reacted. No matter how large the Flores's descendants were, they would not be able to make the fleet of the hunted ships spread all over the sea. In fact, even Nognes could not do it unless they did nothing else.
As for the larger scale, the candidates cannot do it, and the Kingdom of Kaorin-Ishurien cannot do it either. The free sea is because it is large enough that it is free enough.
Therefore, Fang Yu made a decisive decision to let the Qihai Traveler pass through the wind element layer again and return to the sea outside Orenze again.
During the two day and night voyages, they eventually failed to encounter the legendary island, as it seemed that it might have fallen into a deeper abyss and even passed through the quiet wind belt.
But it may also be broken down due to its own mass during the falling process, and naturally collapse and disappear.
Fang Zhu was only a little disappointed with this. After all, there were too many legends and stories left on the mysterious island, whether it was the Battle of Byrne or the past of the "Star of Dawn".
However, this disappointment is more like an expected disappointment. The Kaolin people, the imperial people, and even the candidates must have explored this in the end. There is no single word record in history that shows a lot of things.
They didn't think they were chosen sons, and they could find something that others hadn't noticed. There was not a single opportunity, but they were destined to be very few.
The Qihai Traveler's number is still rising slowly, passing through layers of clouds and mist.
The land is clearly visible on the left side, but it seems very close but is actually very far away. It looks like a drooping piece of mountain wall that penetrates directly into the clouds, like the back of a giant, looming.
“Calculate where we are.”
"We are located in the southeast of Orenze, with the captain, the wind is southwest, the wind speed is seven knots, the sea conditions are good, the visibility is average, and there are cloud walls ahead."
Silvede raised his head from the star orbital, walked to the side of the porthole, looked outside, and replied softly: "Now the ship is heading east, we should be below the sea estuary of the Great Rift Gorge."
Fang Zhu couldn't help looking in that direction. Several bright light belts hung above the ridge surrounded by clouds and mist, almost several thousand meters long, which was a waterfall hanging from the edge of the land. Nognes was abundant in rain and was the richest area in the Kaorin-Ishurien water system.
The rivers increasingly erode rocks, forming hollows and rifts. The largest rift is located in the center of Nognes, which is exactly the one they saw - the Wall of the Sky Sea.
The huge and majestic cliffs cut out like an axe and a knives, penetrated vertically under the clouds, separated from them, stood on both sides, and gradually gathered toward the center, winding and winding all the way out of the sky.
The sailboat slowly sailed through the center of the large crack, as small as a grain of dust.
Going northward along this crack, there is a long winding river that opens wild forests from the Red Mountains and the Peinan Valley; the water at its source comes from the shimmering long lake, witnessing the snow-covered mountains there, the glorious white towers on the shore, and the exquisite houses of the fairies between the mangrove forests.
Further north, the wind whistled, melting streams from the frozen Elderon Glacier, flowing through the snowy grassland, following the dwarf explorers chasing the snow monster's footsteps, and from among the pebbles there, the longest river of Kaorin-Ishurien was born.
Shining Milky Way—
In those memories of the past, he also recalled the beautiful scenery he had seen one by one - the silver snow on the Holy Bow Peak, the joy and tranquility of the fairy's residence, as well as the tower standing in the dense forest, the rippling lake light, and the towns along the coast.
Fang Zhuan looked at the rift, and couldn't help but feel aroused, and he seemed a little silent for a moment.
Until the next moment, the voice of the naturalist Miss from the sound transmission tube interrupted his thoughts, "Brother Ed, the detector detected the wind element reaction, in the southwest of us."
Fang Yu came to his senses. They had actually made plans and might have met others, but they didn't expect it to be so soon. I don't know if it was because there were already too many Florids and other guild fleets nearby, or if they were simply unlucky.
"Everyone is ready for battle." Fang Zhu gave the order. He also put on control gloves and walked out of the captain's room. Silweid took off his magic gun from the wall and followed closely behind.
Although the reaction on the wind element detector is not necessarily the person chasing them, it may also be the passing merchant ship or the Kamishiki creatures, it is not wrong to prevent problems in the current situation.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Fang Zhushi came to the deck, Bakins, Big Cat Man and Pasha were already waiting for him here, Big Cat Man finally changed back to his former majestic image, with a fiery red mane flying in the wind, wearing a heavy magic armor, and studding the great sword on the ground. Since Luo Hao joined the team, he has no longer acted as a defender in the team, and his weapon has also been replaced by a two-handed great sword.
Thanks to the improvement of Fang Yu's craftsman level, this great sword is already the second generation product. However, it can be foreseen that there should be no third generation, because Fang Yu's craftsman is getting further and further away from crystal craftsmen, and other skills are gradually unable to keep up.
"Is it a Florida?"
"Like," replied the sailor: "It is a three-masted fast sailing ship. This type of merchant ship is rare, either a pirate or a snatch our ship. Unless we are lucky and just happen to meet an irrelevant person."
The possibility of irrelevant people is very small. Even if they really are irrelevant, the ship coming from this direction should also come from Port Orenze. If they are recruiters, it is hard to say that they will not covet their points after seeing the community. If they are indigenous people, they will also be affected by the wanted order of the Kingdom of Kaurin-Ishurien.
"Where is that ship?"
"I've entered the clouds and I'll see it later."
The wind element detector on Qihai Traveler has poor performance. When detecting other ships, it often means that the other party may have discovered them. Escape is not very meaningful. Not to mention that the other party's speed is faster than theirs, the detector's discovery distance may be much higher than them.
Even if they hide in the cloud wall like the last time, the people behind them can notify other fleets to come. At that time, they will be able to break through with a siege net or surround them outside the cloud wall.
At this time, Luo Hao, Parker, box and Ai Xiaoxiao walked up from the lower deck together.
"But our ship is much smaller than the one on the opposite side." Pasha said a little worriedly.
"There are also small ways," Baggins replied, "The key is to see how strong the other party is. Generally speaking, your Saint Selected people are very average in their level above the Aquarium, with only occasional exceptions-"
Generally speaking, in the same age group, under thirty, the personal strength of the summoner is far greater than that of the indigenous people. But above the sea, it is another scene. Even with systematic help, it is difficult for the summoner to be as good as the old sailors in the boat handling level.
Therefore, there is no reason why Baggins looked down on the Saint Selected. Moreover, he was not an ordinary sailor. He was once one of the deputys of the Mawei Dynasty. If he had not been injured, his strength would have been reduced, he would not have even appeared here.
In other words, he may have seen more winds and waves than many callers have walked.
The big cat man picked his paws and narrowed his silver eyes and said, "The wind today may have a little different aura, Ed, but don't worry, victory will always belong to Ms. Marland."
"You are here again, Mr. Reid."
"This is no joke, little guy."
Fang Zhu shook his head.
Only Ai Xiaoxiao asked curiously, what does today's wind indicate?
Parker was shouting that the Lion Paladin was just bragging. Luo Hao looked at the three-masted sailboat that was coming out of the clouds in the distance, turned around and asked him what he planned to do?
The wind on the sky sea gently rolled the clouds. Fang Zhu looked at the cloud wall that was being generated in the north, and after a while, he made a decision, "Stop to the cloud island in front first."
Regardless of Ms. Marland, he decided to fight a war.
The other party regarded them as a reward for walking points, but he had to let these people know that they had to pay a price to get the points. Today's Seven Seas Brigade is no longer the adventure team that had no ability to resist between the great guilds in the past.
They also have the ability to fight back.
"You decided to teach them a lesson?" Luo Hao asked.
"Let's see how strong they are." Fang Yu was still cautious.
Guilds and groups that can come to the Kamikaze are no longer a novice.
But everyone knew in their hearts that this might be the first battle between the Seven Seas Traveler, and even the Seven Seas Traveler's true meaning, with the Florids and the Alliance.
Fang Yu gently placed his hand on the side of the ship, as if he had seen the former star of dawn, the night in the elves' ruins, and the moment he had made a promise with Miss Scape.
Now that promise is gradually becoming a reality. Some memories are procrastinating for a long time, but some accounts will always come to settle.
A gap had been opened on the side cabin door of the air combat deck below, and the silver clockwork fairy was flying out of it, and under his gaze, he flew into the distance until it turned into a faint silver light.
…………
When the faint source of reaction appeared on the wind element detector of the Aoxin Silver Fire for the first time, the people on the ship did not realize that they had won the jackpot.
There were sailboats everywhere in the nearby Kansai that came to search for those people. Yesterday they met the ships of people from Flores twice, and met people from other guilds three times, and even a ship under the Rainbow Alliance.
The 120,000 points should be the vast majority of the league's quest points balance in the fourth quarter of this year, and they have been invested in this gray wanted order. It seems that the league will not have to worry about spending points before the end of the season this year, but I don't know if there will be any shortage in the future when there are sudden tasks.
This is also the reason why the local guild in Nognes is so crazy. According to the current market price, you can buy a place to the Second World with almost 50,000 points.
Of course, guilds with average strength will not rashly train a few conscripts to go to the Second World, but 120,000 points are really enough to do a lot of things.
For example, it is enough to increase the guild's ranking in the league by several places and increase its strength by a large margin.
The captain of the Oxin Silver Fire is called Elland Radwell, an indigenous. However, the ship does not belong to him or any indigenous forces, but is from a nearby convener guild, who is only hired to serve as the captain of the ship. According to the current popular saying, it is called "selling a life".
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! Sailboats require experienced professionals to serve as captains. Ordinary guilds do not have the ability to cultivate their own captains, so hiring locals with reliable reputations has become a popular choice.
Elland had twelve years of experience sailing over the sea, and as for the experience before becoming a captain, it was even longer. The Saints opened a price he could not refuse to dig him onto the ship, so he appeared here.
He estimated that there were at least seven ships in the nearby air sea with the same purpose as the Oxin Silver Fire, including a large ship of Flor. If the scope was expanded to the entire Olenze coast, the number of fleets would be greater, and the Orlenze people alone sent two fleets of twelve ships in total.
Therefore, when he went out to sea, he actually didn't have much hope to find those people. The Oxin Silver Fire was a good ship, but it was a bit too far behind the people of Flor and even the Rainbow Alliance ship he had seen.
Especially the wind element detector on the ship is very old, which is crucial in searching. The air and sea are too large, and relying on visual search is basically equivalent to finding a needle in a haystack. But their wind element detector is actually not much farther away than visual distance.
So when a summoner came to tell him that there was a faint reaction on the detector, Elan's first reaction was that they met their peers again. In fact, the summoner also thought so, but according to the experience of Kōhai, they had to first rule out whether it was a Kōhai creature.
This is very simple. Just like the Qihai Traveler, because the wind element detector is too embarrassing, when something is detected on it, it often means that the target can be seen almost. Although the detector on the Aoxin Silver Fire is slightly better, it is actually similar. About ten minutes later, Elan and others saw the source of the signal through the telescope.
Then everyone's eyes widened in shock.
"It's them!"
I don't know who shouted first.
The ship was almost in a mess, but fortunately Elland was experienced and immediately issued an order to let the Oxin Silver Fire immediately return to the clouds.
Although the other party may have seen them, they may not be able to distinguish their ship shape at the first time at such a long distance. He has heard that those wanted people are just a group of young people. What kind of experience can young people or the Saint Selected people have in sailing on the sea?
If the other party hesitates a little, they will give them a chance to get close. Even if the other party is alert enough, hiding behind the clouds can hide their intentions and give them enough time.
The president of the guild to which the Aoxin Silver Fire belonged came to Elland almost immediately, and the other party even said to him with some excitement: "Mr. Elland, you are definitely the most outstanding captain we have found. It was almost certainly a wise move for us to choose you. But now can we tell us what we should do next?"
Elland Radwell was also a little excited because the other party had already agreed with him that they would not ask for the bounty on the wanted order of the Korlin royal family. As long as those people were caught, those bounties belonged to him.
"The other party's ship is small, and according to the witnesses, there is almost no weapon," he took a breath, forced himself to calm down, and analyzed with a cautious attitude: "They should not be able to escape us, the only thing they should guard against is that they escape into the cloud wall."
“Can it be done?”
"There is no big problem. Our ship is bigger and has complete equipment. You can fire a cannon to force them to stop, but this needs to be within a certain distance," he said jokingly: "Now let the magicians on the ship take off first. We are behind the clouds. They can't see us, but we can't see them either. We need eyeliners."
Although the president knew nothing about the naval battles above the Akira Sea, he was not a novice after all. He immediately replied: "I had already let the magicians take off the air, Mr. Captain, but now there is news from the front that the other party is driving the ship behind Yun Island to the north."
"North?"
“Yes, north.”
"They must have wanted to use the cover of Cloud Island to lower the height below the clouds, and then enter the cloud wall," Elland was a little excited: "But they made a mistake," because of the wind direction, the cloud wall will retreat to the northeast. They are wasting their time, and we can definitely catch up with them!"
The president's eyes lit up, "Sir Captain, you are the most experienced person on this boat. Then you have agreed that you will leave it to you. We need to catch the livestock, so we will prepare for the battle."
Elland thought for a moment, nodded, but also reminded his collaborators: "I am an expert on the Kasumi, but you know how to fight better than me. But I heard that those people are not simple, I heard that they had fought with Dragon when they were in Dorifin."
"It's just a shadow of the dragon, and they were lucky at that time," the president laughed: "Half a year ago, their average level was only about twenty, so we can handle it casually. Don't worry, as you said, Mr. Captain, this is convenient for us to be experts."
After so many years of the Saint Selected came to this world, Elan also understood about the level of being in the early twenties. He knew the general level of the rest of the guild, so he nodded with confidence.
But obviously neither of them knew that as the Aoxin Silver Fire passed through the clouds, a silver fusiform flew object was maintaining the same speed above the head of the ship, and silently staring at everything that was happening below with the pupils of the lens.
