Chapter 56: Cold Snap
Looking at Logan, who had gotten a recliner out of nowhere and was basking in the sun on the deck, Ethan was speechless.
It feels like this guy is more adapted to the world than he is. Obviously, he has lived here for many years, and he is not as good at enjoying life as Logan.
"Logan, how's your language learning?"
At the beginning, because of Arthur's relationship, Ethan painstakingly studied the props for knowledge transmission for a period of time, and finally succeeded in creating such a magic prop that can 'extract' language knowledge in batches.
This thing is not big, it is easy to hold in your hand, and then you can touch a switch above to automatically get the indoctrination of language knowledge.
Considering that everyone's receptivity, IQ level and mental strength are different, Ethan divided this 'language learning machine' into several 'gears', the lowest level will not be damaged even by ordinary people, but it takes more time, and a new language can be completely mastered in as little as a few months.
Wolverine's mental toughness is incomparable, and although his IQ is not outstanding, he can still withstand the highest level of learning, and it only took a few days to receive all the language knowledge.
Of course, it's one thing to accept it, it's another thing to want to master it completely, and having a new language knowledge in your head doesn't mean that you will be able to use it perfectly right away, it takes a while to digest and practice.
Fortunately, there is also a Laura next to her, who has also just accepted a new language, and one big and one small can practice conversations with each other in order to master this new language faster.
"Magic is amazing. ”
Logan looked at the inconspicuous thing in his hand, it was such a thing, and he allowed himself to learn a completely unfamiliar language in such a short time, although he still stumbled to speak, but as the days passed, he mastered it better and better, and finally became no worse than what he spoke in his native language.
"Can't this thing be used to learn anything other than language?"
It's not that Ethan hasn't thought about this need, but he doesn't need it for the time being. Superficial knowledge does not need to be instilled with this thing, and complex knowledge transmission may not be able to understand and apply it in practice.
If it's some skills, such as firearms and combat knowledge, it's more about physical practice, and no amount of knowledge you get in your head is useless without hard practice.
"For the time being, I can only use it to learn the language, and I may use it to learn some basic knowledge of the world in the future. ”
"What do you mean?"
"You already know that I can travel between planes and worlds. Ethan sorted out his language, thinking about how to put it more simply and bluntly: "Some of these worlds have similar rules to the earth, and some are completely different. Sometimes it takes a lot of time to get used to the rules of this new world, and if I can improve this thing, I can extract the knowledge from the locals and instill it directly in our heads. ”
"Understood. ”
This is a very good and very important role, and Logan, who has participated in countless wars, naturally understands the importance of intelligence, and if he is looking around, he wastes time and does not say anything, and maybe there will be something missing.
"Can't do that now?"
"Can't do it. ”
The main thing is how to extract the corresponding information from other people's minds without harming the other party? This has quite high requirements for mental power and control, which is too difficult for Ethan to be strong now.
"By the way, what else do I need to learn besides languages?"
"Nautical knowledge. ”
This thing doesn't need to borrow a 'learning machine', every day Logan is learning about navigation, in order to train Logan, Ethan even gave up looking for islands, and used this slightly dangerous sea area to hone Logan, I believe it won't be long before Logan can become a qualified sailor.
Originally, Laura didn't need to participate in these exercises, but considering that she would have to live on this ship in the future, she might need to face some trouble on her own at some point, even if she didn't need it now, she needed to understand it properly.
So in the following period, while practicing the practical application of the language, Logan began to learn to control the sailboat, and Laura watched the whole time.
This time is really thrilling and exciting, after all, Logan has no contact with this person at all, compared to Ethan, he is a complete layman.
Ethan had lived in this world for a few years, going to sea with his father in this world a few times, learning some sailboat operations in the offshore sea, and training in the calm sea for a few years before coming to this sea.
Logan hadn't been exposed to these before, he was also the most ordinary soldier in the army, he was good at charging into battle, his melee combat ability was even more explosive, and he was even the top martial arts master in the Marvel Universe in many planes.
However, no matter in any plane, there is no record of manipulating a sailboat, learning from scratch and suddenly getting started is such a difficult sea area, it is inevitable to be in a hurry, if it were not for the installation of a stabilization device on the Goddess of Dawn, Logan would really be able to drive the ship upside down on the sea.
At this time, Ethan was glad that he had just entered this 'suicide route', and he hadn't even gone deep into the previous section. If you continue to move into the middle section, you will be able to use the Rogan technique...... Under normal circumstances, he would not dare to hand over the boat to Logan to practice his piloting skills.
A full month passed in the days of fear, during which Ethan accidentally collected space-time energy again, and he found that it seemed to be easy to collect space-time energy in this sea, although the amount was not much, but as long as he kept collecting, he could quickly accumulate a lot of quantity.
This time, he was not in a hurry to go to any world to adventure, nor was he in a hurry to go to the Marvel Universe or Paradise Island to visit his friends, but continued to cultivate with these energies, allowing Logan to continue to learn various things.
Even if he was going to a new world, he would have to wait for Logan to adapt to the place and master the knowledge he should have.
During this time, a new combination appeared on the Dawning Goddess: Laura and Xiao Ou, the child seems to have no immunity to small animals or anything, since Xiao Ou was discovered by Laura, Laura has one more entertainment activity every day: looking for Xiao Ou who is hiding.
Thanks to Wolverine's excellent perception and sense of smell, Xiao Ou will inevitably be caught by Laura no matter where he hides, but both Laura and Xiao Ou seem to like this kind of game very much and have fun playing every day.
"She only looks like an eleven-year-old now. ”
After a period of practice, Logan finally didn't drive the boat to make his heart beat faster, standing in front of the console holding the steering wheel with one hand, and adjusting the layout of the sails on the stereoscopic image displayed on the console with the other: he didn't handle it well at the beginning, because he had to control the console with his hands, and Ethan only needed to concentrate on the idea of moving at all.
"It's a pity that only Xiao Ou can play with her here. ”
"I'm lucky enough to grow up safe and happy. Logan remembered his own world, if it developed normally, even if Laura could escape the pursuit, there would be no happy and beautiful life waiting for her, and she was destined to fight all kinds of enemies for a lifetime, just to be able to live.
"Whether we can continue to grow safely depends on how well we perform?"
In his free time, Ethan will also give Logan a science about the situation in this world, and basically everything he knows has already been told to Logan, so Rogan understands what he means.
"How dangerous do you think the rest of the voyage will be?"
"It's certainly not going to be as easy as it was during this time. ”
He wasn't sure exactly how dangerous it was, and judging by the news he got from Brent, the situation was not optimistic, especially as the Aurora continued to advance on this route, and he gradually felt the pressure felt by those adventurers who came before him.
"Do you feel like it's getting cold all of a sudden?"
"I feel it, it's getting cold. ”
Ethan's left hand wears a special watch, obtained from Tony Stark, of course, that provides information about the current environment, including temperatures.
At this time, the temperature has dropped by 10 degrees compared to an hour ago, and this difference can be noticeable even without equipment.
"It should be noon, right?"
Logan looked up, and the sky became dark at some point, and thick clouds gradually condensed in the sky.
"In this area, this should be the norm. ”
Ethan put down his hand, just a moment ago, the temperature dropped by two degrees, it was obvious that he had caught up with the sudden change in climate, this kind of thing Brent mentioned to himself, but he hadn't encountered it for a while before, and finally encountered it today.
"Laura, go to the room and change into thick clothes. ”
I had looted a lot of clothes in the research institute before, mainly for Logan and Laura to change, and considering the situation here, winter and summer clothes were prepared.
Laura was looking up at the sudden bad weather, and when she heard Ethan's words, she obediently ran into the cabin to change her clothes, and then Ethan turned to Logan: "I'll keep an eye here first, and you should change your clothes first." ”
"This temperature shouldn't affect me. ”
"No, I think the temperature will go down, so you'd better change into a thicker outfit before coming out. ”
Logan looked up at the sky, he had heard of the magic of this sea before, but he had never experienced it firsthand, and he always felt that the temperature change was too exaggerated.
"How many degrees do you think it's going to drop?"
Ethan glanced at the watch in his hand, and the temperature on it was still dropping.
"According to this trend, there is almost no suspense below zero, and if you look at the weather, it is likely that there will be a heavy snowfall. ”
Logan was very speechless about this situation, he was still enjoying the warm sunshine in the Caribbean Sea before, how could he be near the Polar Circle in a blink of an eye?
"The world isn't that rosy!"
