"What can I do?"

Realizing the problem they were encountering now, Lin An asked.

"Find out if this situation has something to do with supernatural powers," Captain Randolph didn't hesitate, "As for finding land, you don't have to worry, we can still supply at least three months of food in stock, and as long as there is land nearby, we can definitely find it." ”

Under such circumstances, the old captain was still very strong, stubbornly sticking to his territory like a dragon with a strong sense of territory, and did not allow a layman like Lin An to interfere in his professional field.

But it seems that the old captain has completely determined that they are not in the sea near the course.

Lin An glanced at the old captain who was still calm, and suddenly realized.

"Captain Randolph has been in this situation before?" After a pause, she explained, "I need more information to help me analyze where we are now." ”

"Isn't it just a matter of casting two spells?"

Captain Randolph glanced suspiciously at her, the mage he had seen in his time in the navy, whose mysteriousness, but with a pride that did not seem to match his abilities, had left a deep-seated impression on him, which seemed to be a little far from the front.

But Captain Randolph knew that this was not the time to care about these things, not to mention that the little girl in front of him looked quite pleasing to the eye, so he snorted impatiently and said:

"The ships I command have not experienced this kind of situation, but I have heard of more than one in the sea where accidents are frequent and ships go missing and get lost.

For example, the dark triangle where Divine North and Little Perre meet in the northwest of Ace Bay is also known as the Triangle of Death in our navigator circles.

It was a golden transit port that sailed east from Sacred North, but since the eruption of a deep-sea volcano there more than a hundred years ago, a gray sea fog has occasionally drifted on the surface of the sea, and the fog has appeared and disappeared without warning......

Captain Randolph told several rumors, both widespread and secretive.

There are several rumors, Lin An has also read in some books, but there is still a slight discrepancy with Captain Randolph's statement, obviously the judgment and description of an experienced old captain is closer to the truth than what Lin An got from the information in the books.

Lin listened quietly, and finally said, "So you mean, you think that the situation we are currently experiencing is very similar to the supernatural?" ”

"Yesterday's storm came so suddenly, and although storms at sea have always formed quickly, they are still brewing, with waves, fish and clouds...... In my experience, I don't notice anything unusual until you're in the center of a storm. ”

"I see." Lin An nodded.

The power of the Dawn Oracles comes mainly from the forests, and the sea is not the home of the Dawn Oracles, but they can still get some natural messages.

Lin An came to the bow of the ship and cast a magic spell to listen to the sound of the sea breeze.

The wind brought news from afar, the surrounding sea was normal, the sea was calm, and there was no abnormal information about the existence of extraordinary powers.

However, Lin An also got the information that there was land nearby from the chirping of seabirds.

"I think the sea we are currently driving in should be safe, and if we have encountered a supernatural force, it will be over after the storm disappears and we deviate from course to this strange sea."

In fact, Lin An suspected that they had encountered a natural lock formed by accident.

The so-called magic lock is a kind of super-large magic enchantment or field, covering a huge area, and the duration is sometimes thousands of years, far from being comparable to ordinary magic circle enchantments, such as Pompey's energy confinement circle and Dandong's forbidden magic lock, which can be said to be maze locks.

Locks are usually the crystallization of high extraordinary powers, a product of artificial intelligence, the layout conditions are harsh and complex, requiring the use of many precious materials and a lot of manpower, extensive knowledge and accurate calculations are the indispensable foundation of the builder.

However, in some eligible cases, it is not impossible for nature to form a special realm similar to the Lost Lock, such as the Death Triangle Fog that Captain Randolph gave the example of before, and so on, whose characteristics in the eyes of the mage are consistent with many of the characteristics of the Lost Lock.

The naturally formed locks are unpredictable, especially at sea, and even in the last world where Lin An once lived, rumors of the mysterious disappearance of various ships in the sea are still circulating everywhere, and they are superb, not to mention that this plane already has extraordinary power, and the situation will only be more magical and exaggerated.

"Maybe in that storm, we inadvertently crossed thousands of nautical miles through the distortion of space, so we might not be here." Lin An said to Captain Randolph.

The old captain had a hard time accepting it, but the unfamiliar schools of current fish near the Little Andreinin forced him to believe in this possible inference.

In ocean navigation, the most terrifying thing is often unknown, and Lin An's statement at least shows that the situation they encountered is not inexplicable, which is enough for the old captain, at least he has the bottom in his heart now.

What Captain Randolph didn't notice was that unconsciously, Lin An had slowly established a certain foundation of trust in his heart.

It would have been unbelievable if Captain Randolph had been asked to believe such an unbelievable absurdity from the mouth of a young girl.

"If the lock you're talking about has the ability to send our little Andreinin to any part of the sea, regardless of distance, then I might be able to confirm where we're in—"

It was an exciting and novel experience, and the cells of the old captain's whole body were uplifted.

He summoned all the organs and tissues in his body that contained the essence of his wisdom and experience, including hundreds of thousands of hairs that were born for the ocean, and finally gave three choices uncertainly:

"The sea we are in now may be the Luobu Sea of Sacred North, or the open sea of Perre, or the Pearl Sea of the Sea of Thousand Islands southeast of Perre."

And after Lin An blew the sea breeze when two magic spells were blown on the bow of the ship, he finally found the answer from the trivial chirpings of the seabirds brought by the wind, and told the old captain a good news:

"I think I know where the land is closest to us."

Under Lin An's guidance, before nightfall, the Little Andreinin saw an island with seabirds and lush vegetation.

"The island has a good bay, a natural deep-water harbor that can accommodate galleons like the Little Andrein."

Captain Randolph and First Officer Reg breathed a sigh of relief.

It was an extremely dangerous thing for a ship to sail at night in an unfamiliar sea, and last night it was a last resort, but with the experience of the helmsman, Captain Randolph, and the luck of it, there were no dangers such as reefs or convective whirlpools.

But it's not okay for a ship to just stop at sea.

The sea seems to be calm, but in fact, the currents under the surface of the water are flowing non-stop, even if the Little Andreinin does not sail and is still at sea, one night is enough for the Little Andreinin to float out of the current or monsoon, more than ten or twenty nautical miles, maybe even take the Little Andreinin out of the relatively safe offshore sea overnight, into the more dangerous and unfamiliar open sea.

Of course, they can't be sure whether this is the mainland offshore waters, but the calm and fish conditions throughout the day seem to be more consistent with the offshore waters.

"Where there is a forest, there must be fresh water and a source of food, and the trees on the island are luxuriant, with trunks thick enough to supply us with the timber we need for our temporary stationing. Even if the Little Andreinin needs some minor repairs, maybe we can find the right wood, and with such an island, and the food and ale we carry in the cabin, we don't have to worry about staying there for a year and a half. ”

First mate Regg's well-informed and confident belief in Captain Randolph was far from despairing, and he began to plan in a very optimistic tone, after taking a rough look at the island's environment from the sea.

"Your opinion is undoubtedly insightful, and this is undoubtedly a suitable harbor for a while, and unfortunately someone may have become the master of this island before us—"

Lin An's tone was relaxed, but there was no smile on his face, Captain Randolph and First Officer Reg both heard the ominous meaning from her words, and only heard Lin An continue:

"Oh, come as soon as you say - lo and behold, the warm owners of the island have come to 'welcome' us!"

As her words fell, a large number of seabirds flew up in the dense woods of the island, like a gray curtain opened in an instant, and a few of the more conspicuous large ones were hidden among the countless wing feathers.

As the seabirds became more and more sparse, and when they came to the skies over the Little Andrein, the people on the galleon could barely see what was mixed in with the countless seabirds.

It was a huge gray sea eagle, the body length of an adult male, and the wingspan of the smallest head was more than two feet, and when it occasionally flew sideways along the air current, it could make Lin An and the others see the humanoid creature clinging tightly on its back:

Dark red eyes, dark, almost dark complexion, slender, muscular limbs, animal skins around the waist barely hidden, and a crude handmade spear more than nearly two feet long was tightly grasped in his hand.

"Demons! ――It's a Sea Eagle Rider!! ”

Like a fateful enemy, Captain Randolph realized the identity of the other party before he could see the form, and hissed and shouted, "All ready for battle!" Rope hand protection canvas! ”

He turned his head with a twisted face and yelled at Lin An, "Quickly call out that kid in black armor yesterday - before he dies, don't let a crack break in the canvas!! ”
