Changye Gong: "Stop, the Fengshen Sect's disciples are well-equipped, and there are at least a thousand armed residents on the island, what can you do alone?" ”

"It's better than waiting to die in silence," Wright sighed, continuing, "I know you have sympathy for the inhabitants of the island, so I won't ask you or Ioros to act together. ”

Changye Gong: "Hmph! Are you an old man greedy for life and afraid of death? ”

"No, I know you're not, we're just on different sides" Wright paused, "According to Dragon's Nest Island, I'm from the open sea after all. ”

"So what! Everyone is not the same as people! Who is more important than whom? ”

Changye Gong's eyes widened, and he grabbed Wright.

"That's it! Ioros, you follow, let's go back to the workshop! ”

Wright: "That's useless... The tide is definitely far greater than ever before. ”

"Okay, I'll talk about it later, if you still trust the old man, I might have a way to send you out!"

"Get out?"

Wright was stunned for a moment, barely reacting.

"You mean to leave Dragon's Nest? Leaving the Dragon's Den Wind Wall? ”

"I've already said it, you kid won't come at all!"

"Uh... Come, of course. ”

didn't want to die in vain, even if he regained his strength now, but Wright was actually not sure that he would be able to fight so many fanatical believers, he just didn't understand why Changye Gong had been hiding about the route out of the island before.

But now was not the time to care about these details, so he immediately set off with Changye Gong and returned to the workshop base with Ioros.

The elder of the long leaves was getting stronger, and the steps of Wright and Ioros were not slow, and after a while, the three of them arrived at their destination smoothly.

- The humble workshop is only a few dozen meters away from the hut where Wright woke up, and from a distance, it looks like a small chimney at first glance.

The difference is that there is no smoke coming out of the chimney mouth, and the entrance to the workshop resembles the entrance to a mine, and the elevated staircase is not only out of touch with the background, but also completely unrelated to the industrial-era facilities.

"Follow me." Changye Gong led the two into the workshop, and then shook the handle again, lowered the door of the workshop, and locked it completely.

Wright: "It's..."

In front of the navigator is a dark and cluttered room, with all kinds of forging parts, smelting equipment piled up everywhere, and if you are not careful, you will step on discarded drawings or leftover scraps, which at first glance is very suitable for the style of civil science inventors.

"This way."

There wasn't much time for Wright to take a closer look, and following the old man's voice, the navigator turned his gaze to a corner of the room again, and Changye Gong had already fumbled with the wrench hanging on the strong and tinkered with it.

In a few moments, the sound of mechanical parts working could be heard from the wall beside him, and then the front wall was hinged and pulled upward, revealing a hidden passage hidden behind it.

“？”

"This is the mechanism left behind by that old friend of mine... After so many years, it can still be used. ”

Wright could probably guess that the old friend in Changye Gong's mouth should be the first pioneer who was suspected to be the first to successfully leave the island, but such a big project, why was it not discovered outside at all just now?

Changye Gong: "This workshop was built with him back then, in fact, the ground of the cliff is uneven, the barrel-shaped appearance is also deceptive, and there is a lot of equipment inside, so most people don't notice that the ground inside and outside the entrance is not the same height at all." ”

Wright: "I see... So where does this passage lead? ”

Changye Gong hesitated for a moment, and finally just sighed, "You just come with me." ”

Telling Ioros to pick up the oil lamp on the table, the three of them began to walk down the dim stone steps... It is said that it is a staircase, but in fact, the construction method is quite rough, after all, it is only a work completed by two people, and Wright, who has lived in the "Labyrinth Building" for a long time, understands this very well.

And as the three of them continue to go deeper, the sound of the waves hitting the beach is getting closer and clearer.

It wasn't until he was about to go down to the bottom that Wright realized that the workshop at the top of the cliff was directly connected to a small hidden cave on the coast! This is where the sound of waves and sand comes from.

And that's not all, but what is even more surprising is that inside this narrow and spacious cavern, a strange-looking long boat shaped like a winter melon is constantly bobbing and swaying with the tide, as if it has been resurrected again after more than 30 years!

Unlike ordinary ships at sea, this strange-looking ship had no sails, let alone a deck, and its blue-and-white hull was tightly fitted, with only a square entrance at the top.

Had it not been for the recent business trip to the first half of the Great Voyage, Wright would not have recognized the strange ship in front of him as it was.

"It's a submarine!?"

Changye Gong: "You know this thing? ”

Wright: "It's... I've seen it in the open sea, but the currents near the Dragon's Nest are complex and abnormal, and although the submarine can avoid the wind wall, it is impossible to break through the strong current, right? ”

Changye Gong: "It's good that you've seen this thing, listen, now you immediately take Ioros and leave the cave by boat, thirty years ago, my old friend once told me that after diving, you will find three obvious whirlpool currents under the wind wall, you enter from the middle whirlpool, and you can go to the open sea in half a day at most!" ”

"Huh?" Wright was stunned for a moment, unable to figure out what was going on, "No, did you always know the way to leave Dragon's Nest Island?" But why don't you leave with Ioros, and wait until now? ”

"I... I can't go. ”

It is unimaginable that the old man, who has always behaved boldly and crisply, eased his tone at this moment, and looked at Ioros, who also threw puzzled glances at him on the other side, the old man was silent for a long time, during which he stretched his lips several times with difficulty, but in the end he did not answer the question.

At this moment, on the stairs connecting the workshop, another familiar voice sounded.

"Oh, because he's afraid! Because he wasn't sure if Charles's liar was right! He was afraid that he would die at the bottom of the sea in such an unknown way! ”

The people standing by the submarine were startled when they heard this sound, and when they looked back, they saw that Orleans was already standing on the top of the stairs with a smug smile!

"What a stupid old fellow!"
