"You mean, the resource island has finally been found?" Lin Xiao confirmed.

"Yes, Your Highness. According to the news from Vernal's fleet, they found a large island with an extremely long coastline three thousand kilometers northeast of Fire Scale Island. ”

"The three sea-going vessels of the exploration convoy were immediately assembled, and two ships were sent to circumnavigate from the left and right directions, to prepare a rough survey of the size of the island, but it was not until nearly thirty hours later, when Mr. Vernal sent a report, that the departing ships had not converged, and that even the change in direction was very small. The Rune Communicator reported.

Lin Xiao suddenly felt happy in her heart.

If there is no problem with Vernal's report, that is, two ships, one left and one right, did not complete the entire island for thirty hours, then how big should this island be?

The speed of this kind of sea vessel is about 20 kilometers per hour, and the sailing time is 30 hours, and the two ships are equivalent to a total distance of 1,200 kilometers at most. And since the course is a folded line close to the coast, it will not detour, but it still does not meet.

Then, this island should be a real big island.

"Contact Vernal immediately and tell him that I will go to investigate in person, and the two ships that have been explored will temporarily return to assemble and wait for my next instructions. Lin Xiao quickly made a decision, relying on sea ships is only suitable for spreading out to find islands, but when you really encounter this kind of big island, it will be difficult to explore.

In this case, the most suitable way is to scout from the sky.

Thinking of this, Lin Xiao couldn't help but look at the phoenix girl on the side and asked, "What is the speed of your flight?"

"According to your unit, it should be thousands of kilometers per hour. Anivia said coldly.

After getting this answer, Lin Xiao immediately showed a warm smile on his face: "I need to explore this island and measure a rough map to provide guidance for subsequent development, you can save a lot of time with me." ”

"As you wish, you are my lord knight. Anivia said.

"Very well, then, let's go at once. Lin Xiao took her eyes off her fiery figure and said with a straight face.

After avoiding the others, Anivia directly transformed into a phoenix.

Therefore, in Lin Xiao's gaze, he once again saw that the body of the divine horse was slender, with a pair of ice blue wings, sharp claws glowing with cold light, crystal clear tail feathers, and the whole body was surrounded by illusory blue ice flames, and the legendary creature of more than ten zhang after the wingspan was opened-Phoenix.

Although it was the second time he saw it, he still felt beautiful and shocked.

The thought that I was going to ride it soon made my heart fluctuate slightly.

Taking a slight breath, Lin Xiao tried his best to maintain his lord's demeanor, and with a slight leap, he sat firmly on the back of the phoenix.

The feathers are soft, like fine silk, and they are comfortable to sit on.

Moreover, perhaps it is some kind of talent of the phoenix, when it is really ridden, there is no unstable situation, and it does not affect the battle in this riding state in the slightest.

Lin Xiao was very satisfied.

"Wow!"

At this moment, Anivia let out a majestic phoenix roar, and then flapped her wings slightly, just like a carrier-based aircraft with catapults hanging on an aircraft carrier, and flew far away in the blink of an eye.

Fortunately, that layer of illusory flames seemed to have the effect of blocking the airflow, so it would not affect Lin Xiao.

At this moment, the entire star world may not know that a lord who is still exploring the edge of the sea has officially become a phoenix knight.

Mighty Phoenix Knight.

Anivia is fast.

According to the direction provided by Vernal, without flying at full speed, in less than two hours, an incomparably large island appeared in front of him.

Instead of looking for the flotilla, they flew all the way along the coastline.

Lin Xiao prepared to survey the coastline first.

The distance between Fire Scale Island and this large island is about 3,000 kilometers, and it took about an hour and a half to fly just now, so the base flight speed of Anivia is about 2,000 kilometers per hour.

Flying in a straight line along the coastline at this speed, recording a point at each turn and the distance between each two points, and then combining them to roughly measure the length of the coastline and the area of the island.

However, it is easy to say, but when it comes to doing it, the difficulty is still a little beyond Lin Xiao's expectations.

Whether it's the obstruction of the view or the irregularity of the islands, the measurement work is extremely cumbersome.

What was thought to be done in a day or two almost doubled, and it was not until the fourth day, when he and Anivia returned to the point of origin, that the survey of the entire island was officially completed.

But the results are also very encouraging.

First of all.

The area of this island is roughly one million square kilometers. Compared to the initial island, which is less than 100 square kilometers, it is almost 10,000 times larger. If you had to find a reference, it would be almost twice the size of Madagascar on Earth.

As an island, it is undoubtedly huge. Whether it is Initial Island, Xinxian River Island or Fire Scale Island, in front of this island, it is inaccessible.

Even after going around the coastline, Lin Xiao felt a lot of Yuan Force fluctuations, and it was foreseeable that on this huge island, whether it was Yuan Force Metal Mine, Yuan Force Medicinal Materials, Special Products or Treasured Beasts, there would not be a few.

If it is really developed, it will definitely be a huge treasure for the fairy river leader.

Of course, now only a contour has been measured, and the general topography, geographical distribution, plant distribution, beast distribution, water distribution, human presence or absence on the island, etc., are still unknown.

Before the pioneer team of the Immortal River Territory actually landed on the island, as the most powerful lord of the Immortal River Territory and also a powerful Phoenix Knight, he had to find out the general situation of the island for the territory in advance to avoid unnecessary losses.

Thinking of this, he put away the notebook in which the map was recorded and beckoned Anivia to continue flying.

This time, he was going to go to the location of a large river estuary first.

There, during his previous exploration, was the only relatively wide estuary of a large river that he had discovered, which also indicated that there should be a huge river on this large island.

If there were humans, as a rule of thumb, they would be located on both sides of a large river.

And, importantly, the river seemed to be a little peculiar, and if it wasn't for the fact that he had to roughly measure the islands first, he would have flown down the river to the depths along the way.

Because the color of that river is not the usual red, red, cyan, and white, but golden.

That's right, a big golden river.
