"Quick! let it go down! we're going to be taken up into the air!" Phyllis exclaimed, not afraid of taking off, but of missing out on the Dead Ruins.

Naturally, everyone else knew this, and Wendy was already flying high, her palms stretched downward, and many wind blades were layered together, forming a dark cyan wind blade that looked like substance. Before everyone could see clearly, the wind blade had already shot extremely quickly on Mica's body, and the place where it hit immediately aroused a violent storm. This burst of single magic unexpectedly unleashed a torrential power no less than that of group attack magic.

After the wind tide, the mica is still rising, and the place directly hit by the wind blade is actually intact, leaving not even a trace. Wendy's face also became unnatural when she saw this, and her invincible wind blade technique in the past was completely exploded by Mica's magic resistance.

"Its magic resistance is too strong, I'm afraid only a forbidden spell can break its defenses. Wendy landed back on the deck and said regretfully, "Unfortunately, the Breath Wing is an artifact that purely increases flight speed, and if it is an offensive artifact, it will definitely be able to injure it." ”

"Then let's try it. Tassa raised his bow in his left hand and his fist in the air, and when he saw this, all the Stuart archers immediately lined up on the deck.

"Follow me, maximum output, flat shot!" before Tasa could finish speaking, the bow and arrow in his own hand had been fired, heading straight for one of the most bulging bodies of mica. Then a large rain of arrows swarmed like wild bees, all shooting on a small area of less than one square meter.

This time it was even more crisp, hundreds of arrows crackled into a pile of broken arrows and landed on the mica, piling up a small mountain. The faces of everyone on the Devil Ray were a little ugly, although they had expected it, but this fact still hit them hard.

Phyllis also tried undead magic, but it still didn't work, she grabbed her hair and crouched on the deck, screaming, "What's the joke?

"Why did Mica's body harden all of a sudden?" Kevin, still calm, said with a slightly strange feeling, "Before, the waves in our bow could dislodge Mica's body, and it could be hooked by a fishing hook, but now it will break even if an arrow hits it." ”

Elena pointed to the mica body under the side of the ship and said, "Have you noticed that its body is gradually becoming transparent, it is very likely that its transparency is directly proportional to its hardness." ”

Somewhere, Tasa pulled out a logbook and explained to the others, "From translucent to fully transparent, this mica's body is indeed hardening, and it has to become hard enough to support the massive body structure. When the mica expels all the air from the body, the inside is equivalent to a vacuum environment, and the body surface has to withstand considerable positive pressure. Not only does it have to be strong enough, but it also needs its own structure to be able to hold up, otherwise it will be pressed into thin sheets by air pressure, which is probably the reason why mica has a strong defense. ”

Darko and Wendy had both experienced the absolute vacuum of the forbidden spell firsthand, and were impressed by the powerful power of the air pressure, and the thought that the mica was equivalent to the vacuum created by the forbidden spell at this time, Darko shivered for no reason. Wendy's face also became not very good-looking, but she condensed two wind blades and shot at Mica's body, I don't know what she was venting.

Mica's body rose higher and higher, gradually leaving the sea and slowly floating high into the sky, along with the manta ray, as well as a part of the seawater. Because the upper surface of mica's body is uneven, many depressions accumulate seawater, and as the body hardens, it is shaped into large and small ponds.

Dakko and the others poked their heads out of the side of the ship, and they could see the sea below through the thick body of mica, and they watched helplessly in surprise and panic as they got higher and higher. Asiba poked his head out curiously to take a look, and then bounced back onto the deck as if he had been hit with a heavy punch, trembling on his stomach and not daring to move. Darko and the others looked at each other, but they didn't expect Aceba to be afraid of heights.

Soon everyone on the Manta Ray noticed the anomaly, they felt that their legs needed to bear more and more weight, and the more physically fit fighters were better, and the mages soon fell on the deck one after another with their legs limp. Eventually, all the mages except Wendy couldn't keep standing, and even Wendy, who was constantly casting spells and flying spells, was slightly on her toes on the deck to bear a certain amount of overweight.

"The mica is accelerating up, so fast!" Wendy said as soon as she said this, and her figure immediately flew up into the air, and after a while it fell back and said, "The acceleration of the ascent has slowed down again, and it seems that the altitude will not rise indefinitely." ”

At this time, everyone on the deck noticed that white clouds had appeared around them, and mica floated between the clouds, and from the perspective of the ground, mica had also become a cloud, floating in the sky gracefully. But a group of people on the Devil Ray had no interest in enjoying the scenery at this time, or screamed in horror, or cried in sorrow, or roared wildly, and all kinds of manifestations varied. Compared to the sailors, Darko's group was calm, not too exaggerated, and the most calm of them were Kevin and Elena, who gathered around Tassa's book, studying the anecdotes of the book, and making brief exchanges from time to time.

"It is said here that the tentacles of mica will stretch 100 meters to catch prey, we have not seen this phenomenon, and it is impossible to extend the tentacles after hardening, this paragraph should be fake. ”

"Mica is a tropical monster that loves to bask in the sun and move towards areas with high temperatures. This can be verified, but we lack a chart that compares the temperature changes. ”

"It needs to keep its body moist, so after a few days of sun, it will drop back to the surface and soak its body in the seawater. Will it land once every few days? Based on the number of ships on the Venus plane, this kind of landing frequency will sink hundreds of ships every year, right? This one is obviously not reliable. ”

Kevin and Elena analyzed them one by one, and gradually mastered the general characteristics of mica, but whether this information is correct or not still needs to be verified.

Elena called for Faulk, the young boy who was brave enough not to exhaust himself like some sailors. She patted the boy approvingly, then said, "Look and see where the mica is moving, and what is the declination angle to the direction of the dead relics." ”

Fauck looked up at the sky, looked around again in confusion, and exclaimed, "Oops, we're now in the clouds, and we don't see the sun or stars below, so I don't know which direction the mica is moving!"

Darko had been accompanying Phyllis by his side, and when he heard this, his heart moved, he took out a spherical alchemy machine from the space ring, and threw it to Fokker casually, "This is a locator, you can use this to compare the route." ”

This locator was originally obtained from VitK4, otherwise Daktronics would not be willing to spend money to buy such an expensive alchemy machine. After Fokker took it, he just looked at it with envy, and immediately began to debug the positioning, comparing the movement of the light point above with the chart of the chart.

"Oh no! it's moving northwest, too far from where we're going!" shouted Faulk pointing in the other direction, "The Dead Ruins should be in that direction, and if we go on like this, we'll be farther and farther away!"

Kevin hurriedly shouted, "Darko, throw an ice spell in the opposite direction of the direction that Fauck is pointing, the farther away the better, but you have to throw it on the mica so that it can feel the temperature." ”

Darko didn't know what Kevin's idea was, but he still cast a cryo spell in the opposite direction of Falk's guidance, and the spell hit a certain location at the edge of Mica's body with the effect of ultra-distance locking, creating a large cold wave there.

Suddenly, everyone on the deck felt that their center of gravity was unbalanced, and some sailors even fell directly onto the deck. Previously, mica was rising and moving at a fixed rate, but this happening only means that it has changed direction. Falk immediately said, "The direction of its progress has changed, but it is still not the direction of the Dead Relic, and it is more than thirty degrees off. ”

The exaggerated emotions of the others were interrupted by this sudden change of direction, and they all looked in the direction of Darko and the others at the same time. Phyllis hurriedly asked, "What did you just do, can you communicate with Mica?

"It's not as simple as you think, but it's not bad compared to before. Elena spread her hands and explained, "We're experimenting with ice spells to interfere with mica's judgment of temperature in order to control the direction in which it moves. ”

Kevin asked Darko, "Can you control your ice magic more precisely and make mica move in the direction of the Dead Ruins?"

"You know, when it comes to magical control, I'm not under Wendy. Darko was still very confident in his real name ability, but after praising this Haikou, he still secretly glanced at Wendy. Wendy just looked at him with a smile and didn't deny it.

Then Darko began to experiment with the effects of various ice spells on mica's temperature perception, from the Ice Moon Spell to the Ice Spell, to the Ice Cage and even the Ice Armor, it took him a full two hours to finally try the best solution. The four miniature blizzards cast with his spell control ability are distributed in four different directions behind the mica in a circulating pattern, and he controls the direction of the mica's movement by adjusting the position of these four magic spells at all times.

Each of the four miniature blizzards was equivalent to the output of level 1 magic, but now it was more effective than level 5 or even level 6 magic. First of all, a blizzard is a range of magic, which is more likely to affect the surrounding temperature and create a cold sensation for mica, which is beyond the reach of a single magic. The second is that the blizzard is continuous and at the same time, it is convenient to adjust the direction and control the direction of the mica, which is more flexible than the Ice Mantra.

Kevin intended to use fire magic in the direction he was going, which would increase Mica's perception of temperature differences, but his magic control was poor, and casting spells with Darko would only help control the direction, so he gave up helping, and Darko became the only laborer.

"We're about three times as fast as we were at full speed, and at that speed we'll be to the Dead in a month!" said Faulk excitedly, calculating for a moment against the chart, "and considering that aviation travels in a straight line, this time will be shortened." ”

After receiving Fokker's confirmation, the boatload finally relaxed and could settle down, and it was only then that they realized the grandeur and splendor of the scenery around them. At this time, the clouds are floating underneath the mica, and they are arranged in a neat row, like a road paved with rows of giant ribs. And the sun hung in the distance, shining on this road of clean white kingdom, and there was only a boatload of people on the road, and mica was their mount.

"Wow, it's like heaven, and the scenery of the Ten Directions of Heaven is nothing more than that, right?" Phyllis jumped and shouted excitedly, "I like this kind of journey, it's like a fairy tale!"

"It turns out that there are cool......ies in fairy tales," Darko muttered, while constantly exporting ice magic.

After a few days of curiosity, everyone began to get bored, and the sea below could no longer be seen due to the obscuration of the clouds, and the scenery was even more monotonous than sailing. At Phyllis's request, Otto jumped off the ship and tested the mica, proving that the tentacles were indeed hardened, like transparent corals, and in this state it would not attack other creatures. After confirming that it was safe, everyone else also disembarked and ran to the mica for sightseeing. Sailing with mica, all the sailors suddenly had nothing to do, and except for two lookouts who were left on guard, the other sailors were free to move.

Because of the fully transparent body of mica, it looks as if it will fall at any time, and many sailors have just arrived at mica, so frightened that their legs and feet are weak, and they even lie on the spot and dare not move. Even some of the Stuart archers have a bit of fear, which is a complete test of courage and has nothing to do with rank.

Under Tassa's orders, all the archers of the Stuart family disembarked from the ship, and even if some were frightened, after a short time of adaptation, they were able to walk freely. This is a rare opportunity to exercise courage, although it does not directly help to increase combat effectiveness, but courage is a necessary condition for becoming a strong man, and Tasa will certainly not let go of such an opportunity to train his subordinates.

Of course, Darko is not free to move, he needs to be still and meditative all the time, and he has to adjust the position of the miniature blizzard so that he can't deviate too much from the course. Another one left on board was Aciba, whose fear of heights could not be cured by exercise.

"Look! There's a pond there. Phyllis found an irregularly shaped pond, which was a recessed body surface of mica, and when it floated, it naturally left the sea water behind, forming a pond.

"What's that, there's a bigger pond here, and you can use it as a swimming pool. Kevin also found a pond that was almost 30 meters long.

Selby immediately exclaimed, "Do you like to swim too? ”

"Hmph, it's really embarrassing for you to compete with other magicians in physical exercise. ”

Selby was stunned, and when he turned his head to see Elena's disdainful expression, he scratched his head strangely, why did Elena, who had always been unsmiling, suddenly start to meddle in things?

Tasa walked up to Otto, patted her on the shoulder and said, "We haven't finished fishing, and it looks like we can continue." ”

In these large and small ponds, there are more or less marine life, but due to the size of this pond, Tasa's hooking skills will inevitably be able to be used to the fullest, and Otto will not accept the challenge. Otto took out the fishing rod, and then threw the hook directly on the mica at his feet, "Don't forget, this guy was caught by me, you hurry up and catch up with my weight." ”

Tasa's face changed for a while, and finally he didn't say anything and walked away silently.

Wendy flew around the entire mica as fast as she could, and when she returned, she said, "It looks like we've got enough food, and the fish in these ponds together are enough for half a year's worth of food for a boatload of people." ”
