Chapter 498: The Pitch Black Seabed

On the small Qin boat, which was gradually moving away from the land, the gray girl controlled the strong wind technique to blow in the center of the fixed sail made of the Qin board.

This kind of precise operation is also a kind of exercise for her, but Qin Wei didn't ask her to do it.

It's what she asks for herself.

She still had some regrets about not being able to use magic to fly on the sea with Qin Ling.

She hoped to be able to help Qin Lian more.

But in Qin Wei's opinion, the Gray Lady Gang had done enough, and the speed of using magic to push the boat was several times faster than that of hand rowing.

Even Shore sighed at this, claiming that even if he didn't see the conch again, this trip to the sea was worth it.

But he was also sure that he wasn't lying, he just didn't know why the conch and the island had disappeared.

Qin Wei put forward his own opinion, "Could it be that they have sunk to the bottom of the sea?"

"How is that possible?" said Shore in astonishment, "how can an island be said to sink if it is small, and I look at it at least 200 paces long?"

"The reef on the shore will be flooded by the sea at high tide, and there is nothing impossible about a small island. Qin Wei explained.

Then he asked, "Have you ever seen what that place looks like underwater?"

"No! Not really, the water in that area is so dark that you can't see anything ten steps away!

Shore said in awe, "Moreover, the deeper this sea goes, the more it is the territory of these marine animals, and we can't easily dive to the bottom of the water!"

The coastal residents have the customs and beliefs of the coastal residents, and it is difficult for Qin to judge this.

He could only guess, "That might be a trick for the Fish-Men, but anyway, it's good to go there and see it for yourself!"

Under Shore's direction, the boat sailed the sea for three days and three nights, many days before it arrived near its destination by rowing by hand.

And this shows that Qin Wei is prescient.

He only let Shore be the navigator at the beginning, and resolutely rejected the kindness of the head of Hairi Village to add more manpower.

Otherwise, it would be troublesome for the fishermen to disdain Shore, or to disagree with him, as they had done in the village chief's houseboat.

There is no result in arguing and arguing, and in the end, it is better to let one person make a decision quickly.

And the three-day, three-night voyage was not entirely magically driven by the ship, otherwise it would have been faster.

It's just that Qin Wei was afraid of the gray girl's body and didn't plan to exhaust her magic power all at once, so he changed to paddle every time when she consumed half of her magic power.

After all, this is the ocean, the future is unknown, and the backup can't look at the shadow, so it's better to have spare energy just in case than to stare dryly when the time comes.

On top of that, he also needs Greymaiden to use magic to dive after arriving in that water.

That's much more reliable than diving in the flesh alone, and it's also much deeper.

As for Shore, the old fisherman, he didn't want to go into the water, he would wait for the two of them on the boat.

The spell cast by the elf is Water Avoidance, which is a spell that creates a spherical curtain of water around her to isolate the surrounding water.

She had practiced this spell in the small lake of the Twilight Glade, but that was a hundred years ago.

And this is the first time she has performed it in this real sea, which inevitably makes her a little nervous.

But her water avoidance technique was still released quite perfectly, and she wrapped herself in a closed curtain of water, walking freely under the surface of the sea, like a nymph in the water.

Even Qin Wei couldn't help but applaud and praised, "If there is a competition like synchronized swimming in this world, it will obviously be very interesting!"

And it wasn't long before he got to experience the taste of underwater roaming.

The Grey Lady suddenly pulled the boat out of the water, and then was wrapped in the water curtain for a split second before he fell overboard.

"It's not funny!"

Qin Wei pursed his lips with palpitations, but he couldn't say anything more when he looked at the smiling face of the gray girl.

And soon he was captivated by the underwater scenery.

From the surface, the sea looks undulating and never ending, but once you dive in, you will find that it becomes quite quiet.

Schools of fish swam past them without fear, and even through the water curtain, Qin Wei felt as if he had become one with the ocean.

"It's amazing!"

He sighed at the sight of nature, and at the same time praised the magic of the Gray Lady.

However, the purpose of their trip was not to enjoy the underwater scenery, but to find the giant conch and the vanished island that Shore mentioned.

Qin Wei decided that they might have sunk to the bottom of the sea, and since the fish people had the ability to disappear from the sight of the land dwellers, they might not have the ability to make a small island "disappear" from sight.

So after Qin Wei got used to walking underwater, he immediately started diving with the Gray Girl.

This is undoubtedly a deeply depressed move for the two.

Because this body of water, as Shore said, the sunlight penetrates the sea water less than ten meters before it is dispersed for inexplicable reasons, as if there is an extra curtain under the water.

Once they had penetrated into the curtain, the Grey Maiden had to light a flame in the spherical space.

It's a bit of a mana drain, but it's better than two people with their eyes open and seeing nothing.

Despite this, the firelit area is not more than five meters away from the water curtain, and the pitch-black sea water is like a shadowy wall, separating the two from the water world beyond.

And most of all, they don't know when they will be able to descend to the bottom of the sea.

And the longer the dive, the deeper it descends, the more apprehensive the two become.

The fear of the unknown instinctively takes over their minds, forcing them to cling to each other with their backs to each other.

But in fact, water avoidance can avoid most sea creatures, they can't swim in at all, and the water curtain is a strong current that is constantly tumbling.

Those inside can reach out, but those outside will only be bounced away by the flow of water.

Despite this, that sense of depression also made the two dare not act rashly, and Qin Wei even moved out of the RPG for psychological comfort.

Even the voices of the two of them were deliberately lowered a little, for fear of alarming the unknown existence in this ocean.

They also understood why Shore wouldn't go into the water, and this kind of fear of isolation was truly awe-inspiring.

However, in order to find out where the fishman is, Qin Wei has to break into the tiger's den in Longtan.

He simply said to the gray girl, "Speed up the dive! You can breathe a sigh of relief if you are down-to-earth early!"

"Down-to-earth", this is similar to the dwarf's tone that he didn't expect to say so soon in his mouth, obviously he was a little funny not long ago looking at the vomiting Maina.

But in this case, the dwarf's thinking is extremely correct, and even the gray girl agrees with it.

Being "suspended" in this creepy environment only makes them feel lonely and helpless.
