Chapter 364: Navigation
The next morning.
When the sky was dark, the night had not yet disappeared, and the Pioneer had already embarked on its journey.
After a night of changes, the Pioneer was surrounded by sea creatures that had never been seen before, and they looked a bit like dolphins, but instead of dolphins, they had strange creatures with eyes on their heads.
Their IQ is also inferior to that of dolphins, and they are able to express themselves at the sonic level, establishing friendly interracial communication with Alan.
In front of this group of intelligent sea creatures, Eren is alien, and they have little experience in communicating with aliens, so Eren is fresh and interesting.
In addition, the ship did not prepare so much food for the sea creatures, after all, they were warships, and they had to provide food and drink for the soldiers in peacetime, how could they leave food to feed the sea creatures, and besides, the sea creatures would hunt for themselves, and they did not need to feed them.
If Alan wants to keep the sea creatures working for him, he obviously has to use another method - hypnosis!
This time, he used full-level hypnosis with high-frequency sound waves to hypnotize the dolphins.
I have to say that Allen's hypnotic effect is still good, at least the surrounding sea creatures have at least a hundred strokes.
This number will increase slowly over time, but not too quickly, because the frequency of using high-frequency and low-frequency sound waves will cause fatigue in Allen's body.
All of these sea creatures became Allen's eyes on the bottom of the sea, and he surveyed the underwater conditions for Allen.
The color of the sky gradually brightened, a little bright light ignited the sea, the golden light pierced through the layers of fog, and the sun rose in the faint sea fog.
Alan was keenly aware of the fog at sea, but upon closer inspection, he felt that the fog was ordinary, not like the symptoms of the dungeon.
As the Pioneer moved forward, the sun leaped above the surface of the sea, and the sunlight became more direct, casting a light layer of sunlight on the deck.
The fog on the sea is gone, the sky is still so clear, but there is a warning from a dolphin friend in front of the sea - sea monsters are infested!
"Attention all! There are sea monsters! Alan said.
The crew was still enjoying the beautiful picture of the sun rising, and when they heard Allen's words, they shuddered suddenly, and they all became nervous and looked around.
Soon they realized that they were too nervous, and Alan said that there was a sea monster, and it must have been discovered by sea creatures, so the place where the sea monster appeared must be far away.
Looking through the lookout, Alan put down the binoculars and preliminarily determined that the other party was under the surface of the sea and had not surfaced.
The sea monster was wandering unintentionally in the direction of the battleship, so as long as Allen's Vanguard moved forward for a while, it would definitely encounter the sea monster.
No one knows the approximate number of how fast the sea monster swims underwater, and even the clever dolphins don't deliberately calculate how fast the sea monster is, only that the sea monster is a carnivorous creature with a high speed and high speed, and has extremely destructive power.
Usually, when you encounter a sea monster, you just need to run away in the opposite direction, and the sea monster can't chase the dolphins.
Alan thought about it and felt that it was right, the body shape of the sea monster itself was not streamlined, and it did not swim as fast as dolphins.
"What should we do, should we change course?"
"It's underwater, we really can't be hard, deviate a little, and go around it." Alan said.
The rudder at the stern of the steamer was to the left, and the ship was gradually offset to the left.
After a few minutes, the Kraken had been left behind and did not approach the Vanguard.
The crew of the ship all showed incredible expressions and hesitated: "We escaped like this?" ”
"It turns out that sea monsters can also be avoided, and if we could have avoided them when we used to explore by boat, then the number of deaths would not be so much."
Rhodes looked at the dolphins that jumped up on the surface of the sea from time to time, how beautiful their posture was.
"However, you don't know the language of sea creatures, and even if you do, you can't communicate." Alan shook his head, this method didn't work for naval orcs.
Alan has his own way of training skills that others don't have, and most of them are skills that are brushed to the top.
However, others do not have full-level skills, so they can only practice step by step, and some skills can even be practiced for as long as seven or eight years, which is too difficult.
In the next half of the day, the Pioneer finally discovered an isolated island.
It was an ordinary island, with only a small flock of trees and grass on it, and there were no wild beasts on the island, and it only took twenty minutes to walk around the edge of the island.
After Allen recorded the coordinates of the island, the Pioneer swam forward again.
Where there are islands, the water is relatively shallow, and the chance of sea monsters appearing is very small, while in the deep sea without islands, the deeper the water, the greater the chance of sea monsters appearing.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, the Pioneer accidentally encountered two sea monsters.
Allen's advice is to evade, they don't have torpedoes, and it's a waste of ammunition to shoot at targets under the surface of the sea, so it's better not to hit them.
The Pioneer changed course seven times as a result, and if it weren't for the compass and Allen's constant course correction in the captain's room, no one would have known where the ship had gone.
Veteran captains can identify their way home based on the stars in the night sky, but they don't need to do that, and Eren has solved the orc's dilemma in a big way.
For the whole day, the Pioneer was either on its way to avoid the battle or on the edge of the island to record charts of new islets.
Particularly small islands have no landing value, and when they meet a large island, they will land ashore and see what strange things are on the island.
A few days later, Alan and the others traveled farther and farther, and the islands on the nautical chart were also enriched.
Captain Felton looked at the nautical chart in front of him, which had thirty-four black dots in its original blank space, and he wanted to laugh out loud when he looked at the paper.
What could be more exciting to explore in unfamiliar seas, no!
