Chapter 38: There are always surprises
As Ethan slowly walked away, the voices of the two people discussing gradually became inaudible.
He just didn't care about it at all, and went straight to his own thing.
But when he walked into the reference room and sat down in front of him with everything he wanted to see, he began to wonder if he should take the initiative.
"The speed and agility of the Caravel should be maximized if it were only loaded with food and water, and it would be difficult for Keno to take advantage of the sea chase. ”
But thinking about it, this will give the other party a chance to use the magic cannon, and if the ship that has just been repaired or even renovated is seriously injured, it seems to be a bit of a loss.
"The last time they fled seemed to be because there were no shells, but who knows if they had replenished during this time?"
After thinking about it for a while, I felt that it was better to wait quietly for them to go ashore and solve it, so that the threat of magic cannons could be completely neutralized, and at the same time, the lack of experience in naval warfare could also be ignored.
"You can't be floating on the sea all the time, be patient!"
A good hunter must have enough patience, if he loses patience, he will leave a chance for the prey to escape or even fight back.
Constantly admonishing himself, Ethan calmed down and began to flip through the information.
At this glance, I completely fell into it.
Through the information stored by the guild, Ethan learned that the Sea of Calm was actually firmly connected to the ocean on the other side of the Sea of Storms.
After all, it's no secret that there is a 'passage' in the Sea of Storms, but that passage is still very dangerous for most adventurers on the Sea of Calm, and they may be wiped out in the crazy rain if they are not careful.
On the other hand, these dangers are less terrifying for more powerful adventurers.
Stronger, better, stronger, and bigger ships, and maybe even loaded with magic stone technology that Ethan didn't know much about, it might be difficult for them to cross the Sea of Storms, but that passage couldn't stop them.
The biggest reason why these people are active in another sea and do not return to the Sea of Calm is because the Sea of Calm is so barren.
For them, the Sea of Calm is another name, the Barren Sea, and it simply can't feed an adventurer of their level. It's just a practice ground for some new rookies to learn how to navigate the sea.
Ethan pinched the bridge of his nose, what he had guessed before was indeed right, the Sea of Calm was a 'novice village', and there was no point in running rampant here, and it was right to aim to rush out of this ocean and go to the next sea as soon as possible.
At the same time, the guild is indeed a behemoth as expected, and they are not only at the center of all life in the Sea of Calm, but also in the next sea.
Guilds in the Sea of Calm collect supplies, and a significant portion of them are transported to the guild headquarters in the next sea, where they can be exchanged for things that are more useful in that area - such as more food and more basic consumables, including a large number of low-quality magic stones.
The reason why high-quality magic stones are so rare in the Sea of Calm is that they are collected by the guild and sent away. In the Sea of Calm, there are not too many adventurers who have the capital to hoard high-quality magic stones, they are more in pursuit of basic daily necessities, and food and water are never enough.
If Ethan hadn't had the space-time pointer and accidentally learned the art of water creation to solve the problem of drinking water, I'm afraid he would have been troubled by this problem - if there is no food, he can catch seafood from the sea for a while, but water is an indispensable resource.
Again, Ethan's 'start' was really lucky, and he got what he desperately needed almost every time.
Thinking of this, Ethan unconsciously began to look at his left hand.
"Is once or twice lucky, and three or four times lucky? Maybe it's not completely random as I guessed before?"
This is really hard to judge, because there is no new space-time energy replenishment, and there is no way to continue practicing.
Seeing that there was no one on the left and right, he casually summoned the space-time pointer.
He just took a casual look, and didn't expect that he would be on the island in the middle of the night, and suddenly he would be able to search for new space-time energy or something.
But the world is like this, always full of surprises or frightening.
This time, the surprise came out of nowhere.
"Space-time energy?"
Ethan looked at the clear pointer with only an arrow, and could only sigh with emotion, 'I thought too much about it before, I think it's just pure luck!'
Accidentally discovered the energy of space, Ethan was not prepared to stay in the data room. He had already copied these materials with the Book of Inheritance, and he could go back and read them slowly.
On the other hand, he hasn't thoroughly studied the space-time energy, and he hasn't thoroughly studied it yet, not to mention how they appeared, and the law, location, and intensity of their appearance made him have no clue, as if it was completely random.
After putting all the materials back in their place, Ethan left the data room.
It was already the second half of the night.
The moon hanging high in the sky is round and bright, and the night sky is as beautiful as a painting.
It's a pity that Ethan has no interest in appreciating it at all, just following the direction pointed by the space-time pointer, and then every time he walks for a while, he glances at the pointer after making sure that there is no one around, and makes sure that he has not deviated.
"I don't know if it's on this island. ”
Judging by the fact that the space-time hand only gave an arrow, the distance should not be far, but he was not sure if this distance exceeded the maximum diameter of the island, and if it happened to be in the nearby sea, it would be no fun tonight.
It's just that I've been so lucky lately, not long after Ethan left the guild archive, and before he even stepped out of the guild's complex, he had already found those space-time energies.
"Doesn't seem like much?"
He has been able to preliminarily control this space-time energy, and he no longer has to absorb it at the place where he found the energy as he did at the beginning, and then after absorbing it, he will trigger the teleportation magic array.
Not to mention that it is particularly conspicuous, it is also particularly passive.
Now that there was a slight change, after absorbing the energy into his body, he could clearly feel that this mass of energy was concentrated in the magic array in his left hand - it did not affect his spiritual power because of the entry of this mass of energy.
After absorbing the energy of time and space, the pattern of the magic array also appeared on the back of his left hand, and if you look closely, you will find that this magic array is shining slightly.
This means that the magic circle is active and ready to be activated at any time. At the same time, it also means that he still lacks control over this energy, and is only forcibly suppressed.
"It seems that I was able to carry out the control practice smoothly before, because the magic array was activated, most of the energy had been consumed with the first shuttle explosion, and the remaining energy was also stable, which made my practice so easy. ”
"This kind of energy just absorbed is different, they are more active and more difficult to control, this time the energy intensity is relatively low, and the number is relatively small, I am barely suppressed, if it is more space-time energy, I may have been passively teleported away. ”
After stabilizing the restless space-time energy a little, Ethan was not ready to continue grinding with this energy, but went straight back to the dormitory and knocked on Arthur's door.
I thought that Arthur would delay some time before opening the door, after all, he was dizzy because of the knowledge transmission, and it was the second half of the night, so most people were sleeping soundly at this time.
As it turned out, he had spied on young King Arthur, and the blonde boy appeared in front of Ethan in full gear not long after he knocked on the door.
Looking at his expression, he didn't have any impact at all because of the previous dizziness, nor did he lose his eyes because of lack of sleep.
"You're moving so fast. ”
"When you come to me at this time, there must be some unexpected situation, and I will keep all the equipment at hand when I rest, so it's faster. ”
Ethan nodded, the environment in which the two of them were now not peaceful, and it was a good habit to be quite vigilant.
"Don't be in such a hurry, you still have time to get your gear in order and come to my room. ”
Arthur shook his head: "No need, I'll pack the equipment, and I can take the bag with me when I need it." After speaking, he lifted a heavy backpack from his feet: "Now go to your place, it seems that I still have time to wash my face." ”
Ethan and Arthur went to his house together, then locked the door behind him, and carefully blocked the door with a chair...... Hmm, Ethan suddenly felt like something was wrong?
Arthur, who was wiping his face with a towel, did not put down his backpack and waited for Ethan to speak.
"We just found the space-time energy on the island, so we might be going on a plane trip. ”
Ethan lit up the magic array of his left hand that was slightly glowing, and Arthur understood why Ethan woke himself up in the middle of the night.
"This island also has space-time energy?"
"It's also the first time I've collected it on land, and it seems that space-time energy doesn't necessarily only appear on the sea, maybe it will be collected on those floating and sunken islands in the future. ”
Arthur nodded, after all, Ethan didn't do much plane shuttle, and many things were still being explored.
"So, let's go straight to it!"
Compared to Arthur, Ethan needed a little time to organize the equipment before launching the space-time travel magic array.
The familiar magic array, the familiar eyes were filled with brilliance and could not see anything, and as Ethan's control improved, he gradually became less restless, casting a huge fluctuating space-time energy;
After the light faded, Ethan and Arthur successfully completed the crossing. Just as he saw his surroundings clearly, a big sign in front of him made him feel bad: Welcome to Raccoon Town!
