The forest was so large that it took a large army nearly five hours to pass through it completely.

During this period, seven teams came back one after another from all sides, mainly from the left and right directions, and it can be generally seen that this narrow island is in the shape of willow leaves - in fact, Mu Yan found this last night, and now he just confirms it, and at the same time asks the crew to bring back various plant and mineral specimens seen along the way.

Until the sky grew dark and the double moon began to rise, the last team also successfully returned to the center of the island, so that the whole island was explored for more than half, and there was a huge spherical stone in the center, they camped in the open space next to the boulder to rest, and Mu Yan built an open-air alchemy platform alone to test the nature of these specimens.

At dinner time, except for the cooks, almost most of the crew members crowded in front of the alchemy table to observe.

Most of them probably never had the chance to see a mage experiment in their lifetime, and now they haven't seen enough of it? If you don't understand it, just looking at it is enough to go back and brag to others, not to mention that it can help the boss a lot.

As for how to help......

"Rodek, drink it."

Mu Yan handed the crew a small bottle of dark green liquid.

"Oh! It's me, it's me! ”

Rodek ran over excitedly, took the bottle and drank it down, and the others immediately stepped back and stared at him curiously.

This is the fourth guy to test the medicine, and the first three lucky ones have all undergone varying degrees of change after drinking, such as the first one has turned white from top to bottom, as if he has just been brought out of a flour bucket. The second had a head of green fur, like a parrot. The third was even more terrifying, with black skin, grinning, and teeth that were unusually white, much to the amuse of the crew.

As for Rodk......

"Hiccup—son—"

He let out a loud hiccup, and the gas he spat exploded in the air with a "bang", and the fire shone brightly.

"Water, I want water!!"

He yelled and rushed to the tank.

The sailors burst into laughter, and Mu Yan shook his head helplessly.

……

In the past three days, the crew explored the main island of Bailang Bay back and forth twice, even the shallows after the low tide. They originally wanted to go around the surrounding islands, but they were stopped by Mu Yan.

There is no need for that, firstly, it is too far, too late, and secondly, there is really nothing worth studying on it.

Unlike the main island, which is rich in natural resources, the archipelago is bare and quite barren, and the crew has found almost all the plants, minerals, and even animals hidden in the mud of the shallows on the main island, and all kinds of specimens have been piled up into a small mountain. Each piece was detected by Mu Yan and recorded in the illustrated book, becoming part of the clue.

In other words, he worked sleeplessly on the alchemy platform for three days and three nights, not to mention whether he was tired or not, the crew was tired anyway.

For the first time, they saw how a mage worked—to use their analogy, as if he were the captain of a ship, the first mate, the second mate, the deckman, the cook, the sailor, and so on, and even the power furnace.

Without an assistant, he alone took care of the preparatory work such as material cleaning and processing, assembly and preheating of equipment and instruments at the beginning of the experiment, and then a dazzling experimental process...... Even in the end, even the garbage disposal is different from normal people, and that is part of the experiment! When things of different colors are mixed, the sound of "poof" is suddenly clarified! It looks like water, so it's okay to take a sip!

Of course, no one dared to drink it this time.

In short, the series of operations is full of tight and smooth beauty, which is very comfortable to look at.

Many people have also changed their opinion of mages, and they used to think that this mysterious profession was very easy, thanks to a good life. What is the control element, there is a huge power in every gesture, and it sounds high-end, in fact, it is as relaxed as those people in the opera house who are doing it at will...... But when I saw it with my own eyes, I realized that this was not the case.

But the change is different, and with the end of the second exploration, the crew is somewhat impetuous.

After all, the quest has made little progress.

Just like what Mu Yan saw on the first night, there are no mysterious or weird caves hidden on the island, and even living creatures are pitiful, but they reveal an unusually mysterious everywhere.

Because of such a prime geographical location, Bailang Bay often acts as a temporary harbor for ships, and most of them have to go to the island to rest when they arrive here, but no matter what fleet they are, as long as they go to the island, they will be attacked by mermaids when they leave. Gradually, the sailors attributed this trait to the sanctity of Bailang Bay, which was why their actions defiled the sacred place in the mermaid's mind, and therefore were considered evil.

But these things found now do not conform to the legendary "Mermaid Holy Land" at all. This is an ordinary broken island, what's so sacred?

Symbolism?

But even if it's a symbol, it has to have something special, right?

Seeing that half of the seven days of the ebb tide had passed, but there was still no gain, Mu Yan hadn't said anything, and the crew was a little tired.

Every time you go to sea is equivalent to an expedition, a short rest is still acceptable, but a long truce will lead to laxity, and many people become lazy and listless because of idleness, which will inevitably affect the next voyage, so Barbossa reacted to Mu Yan several times.

On the night of the third day, after most of the crew fell asleep, Mu Yan flew high above the island again.

He hoped that something would change on the island over time.

But the truth is that three days have passed, and there is still nothing......

The night breeze was blowing, and Mu Yan's somewhat swollen head was a little sober.

Could it be that I was really deceived by that guy? Or do you need a clue from Crimson Harbor?

But what clues can Crimson Harbor give him? It's nothing more than connecting Shireen and Calypso......

Floating aimlessly, your eyes always wandering on the island. In a trance, he felt that the long, narrow island looked like an eye.

Well...... A half-open, half-closed eye, just like my current self.

The outline of the willow-shaped island is the eye socket, and the place where they camped was near the center, and the large boulder next to it served as the eyeball.

But what's the use of discovering this thing? Is it possible to expect this eye to be closed?

Well......

Wait a minute......

Mu Yan flew high again, and then looked down, and suddenly it was not the same.

Normal people have half-open eyes, and the pupils are generally close to the upper and lower eyelids, and if you compare it according to this, this abrupt stone is a little small as an eyeball.

But it is precisely because it is small that a radial pattern can be faintly seen from the edges...... At first glance, it looks like a few triangles put together, but if you think about it carefully, isn't this a five-pointed star!

The sharp corners of the five-pointed star are right next to the outline of the willow leaf island, and the stones are filled with the five-pointed star, and the circumference is tangent to the sides of the pentagonal shape.

It seems like this...... The three figures are nested within each other, from the outside to the inside, they are the eye socket, the five-pointed star, and the eyeball.

Mu Yan lowered the height, flew closer, carefully discerned the outline of the five-pointed star, and found that the outline of at least three corners was clearly visible, and the most important thing was that this triangle had its own characteristics!

He hurriedly pulled out the notes that recorded the information of the specimens these days and compared them one by one.

One of the corners happened to pass through part of the jungle, and there was a tree with red flowers and golden and orange leaves, and there were many open fire rocks in the dirt!

The fire rock is a fluffy sand stone that can be ground to make explosives, and the flowers and trees found are non-toxic and harmless, and their juice can be eaten after boiling, and it tastes like chili peppers!

It was this juice that Rodek drank that day, and then he hiccuped out!

Taken together, we might as well call this the horn of fire.

Looking at the piece next to it, the outline is obvious because this part is an inverted triangular puddle! The bottom edge of the puddle was facing the big boulder, and the sharp corners were facing the sea.

The puddle is located in the shallows, which were filled with sea water at high tide, and now that the tide has receded, the sea has not been squeezed out of the sharp corners for the first time, but has gathered into a triangular inlet, sparkling in the moonlight.

In reality, however, it is called "Black Pool" by the crew because it looks black during the day!

There are many plants growing around the black puddle, and most of the aquatic plants in it are blue and black, using the same method to juice and extract, and the final juice will turn people's skin black!

We might as well call it the water horn, which is exactly upstream clockwise from the horn of fire.

The third is located clockwise downstream at the Cape of Fire.

It also made its way through the jungle, but the trees were very scarce because the forest was mostly mud swamps.

From a distance, it looks like a bald piece of a person's head, which is particularly conspicuous.

Most of the plants around the swamp are yellow and green, as if they have withered, and their sap can turn an earthy yellow!

Naturally, we should call it a soil horn.

Discovering this, Mu Yan's heart began to pound, although he hadn't completely figured it out, he felt that he had grasped the key.

In this order, turn clockwise, and the next should be the golden horn and the wooden horn......

For example, the clockwise upstream of the water cape, which happens to be facing the camp, is separated by the large boulder. This place is a bush, and the plants in it have been collected by the crew, most of them are bitter, like bitter melons, and the juice turns the hairs green......

As for the place that should have been the Golden Horn, it was also covered by the jungle, but many crew members picked up hard ore here, and the strength was no worse than the swords of some crew members, and the plants collected here were the ones that could make people white......

But the difference is that the outline of these two horns is not obvious, as if someone has deliberately destroyed it! So much so that at first glance it looks very weird.

Thinking of this, Mu Yan's spirits perked up.

He vaguely knew what he had to do...... Take a look at the latest chapters of "Twilight Chronicles Claw Book House" to read for free for the first time.
