Again, back to the sea of calm.

Ethan's shuttle trip, although he didn't get anything new or knowledge, but the gain was no less than the previous ones.

The improvement of his own strength, the 'upgrade' of the space-time pointer, these all need time to pile up, originally he thought that before he left the Sea of Calm, he could reach the current level is to enter the realm relatively quickly, but he didn't expect that a plane trip would reach the goal in advance.

"It's just that you stay in the plane world for a long time without moving, and if you continue for a long time, how many times can you support your life?"

Ethan looked in the mirror, his appearance had changed significantly from before, and he fell into deep thought.

He left his home in this world and came to the Sea of Calm, which added up to more than a year, but counting the time spent in the plane, it was already more than two years.

The young man grew up quickly, and with hard work, Ethan, who is now close to nineteen years old, has a childishness on his face that is gradually fading.

Now he should be glad that he got this ability from a young body, if it was his own body in his previous life, if he couldn't solve the problem of lifespan as soon as possible, I am afraid that after a few shuttles, he would find that his lifespan was not enough.

Back on deck, Arthur was frowning and wrestling with the question.

Compared with Ethan, Arthur attaches more importance to this issue, if he goes back, he will already be thirty years old, Merlin is okay to say, but how should his father explain it?

"Don't be too nervous, Merlin will let you come out with me, I think he has a way to solve this problem. ”

For mages, there are many ways to increase their lifespan. Of course, most of them have side effects, but for a top-level magician like Merlin, it shouldn't be difficult to come up with one with the least side effects and the best results.

Ethan also uses Merlin as a hole card, and when necessary, he will also learn a kind of magic from Merlin to increase his lifespan, if not immortal, at least to be able to prolong the peak of his body and buy himself more time.

"There should be a way. ”

There was no way and it was useless, Arthur could only put the problem aside and get busy with Ethan.

Having just returned to the Sea of Calm, the two of them have a lot of things to do - tidying up their salutes and checking the condition of the Goddess of Dawn by the way.

Ethan had determined that every time he traveled through the plane, he was going back to the point in time he left. But this time I left for too long, and I don't know if there have been any changes, so it's better to check it out.

As a result, Ethan breathed a sigh of relief, and everything on the Aurora remained in the same state as before he left, including the food and water, which did not appear to be rotten.

"It seems that no matter how long we stay in the other plane, this magic circle will send us back to the moment we left. ”

Ethan glanced at his left hand, now there is no space-time energy in it, and it has reverted to his familiar space-time pointer, the only change is that there is an anchor icon at the top of the light ball, which is the space-time coordinates of the DC Cinematic Universe.

"This should be a great advantage for you in this world, right?"

"Of course. ”

There are too many specific benefits, and Ethan doesn't want to talk about them all, just know it.

"During this time, I have steadily improved my strength on Paradise Island, and I think you have gained a lot as well. ”

Arthur shook his head helplessly: "I can only rely on continuous actual combat to accumulate experience now, and simple practice can only consolidate the foundation......"

In addition, it is inconvenient to practice the use of thermal weapons on Paradise Island, one is that there is not much ammunition, and the other is too much movement, at most take it out to let Diana see and understand this thing, so as to avoid losses in the future.

"It's a pity, in fact, I think you can develop in the direction of a paladin or something, your spiritual strength is not weak, and the strength is very high. ”

"Paladin? ”

After being a companion for so long, Ethan has more or less talked about some nonsense, and Arthur himself will find some books to read and know what a paladin is.

I didn't think about it before, but he believed in his own path before, so he wasn't ready to develop in this direction. Now that he had seen more things, he gradually realized that his strength was far from being truly powerful.

What's more, unlike Ethan, he has no idea where his future path lies, and it seems that the only way to succeed to the throne and become a good king is to see the end of his personal force, but he himself is not satisfied with this end.

People have desires. Especially excellent people, their desires are much greater than ordinary people. I don't know, forget it, how can the current Arthur be satisfied with a strong man among ordinary knights?

"Even if you don't want to be a paladin, you can simply cultivate magic and use magic to strengthen your physical fitness, so that you can continue to improve your combat effectiveness while maintaining your melee combat style. ”

In contrast, Ethan prefers the latter, although the paladin is strong in combat and has more means, but has high requirements for personal beliefs, and accidentally becomes a fanatic, which is not suitable for a young man who wants to inherit the throne in the future.

"It's a good idea. ”

Arthur himself has several pieces of equipment with magical powers, and it will indeed increase his combat effectiveness a lot when they are used, and he really didn't think about using these magic powers on himself.

"But how does magic work on itself, how do you improve it? I'm afraid it's going to take Merlin to teach you. ”

For a magician, it is a natural thing for magic to feed oneself, and when one's magic power is strong to a certain extent, the magic power will naturally begin to improve the physical fitness of the magician, and there is no need to do it deliberately.

As for a small number of magicians, they cast some enhanced magic on themselves, and that was only done after the magic had been cultivated to a certain level.

Either way, it is not suitable for Arthur, who is not a magician at all, and with Ethan's current strength, he can't help Arthur improve his strength - not to mention that this kind of strength that has been improved with the help of outsiders lacks the potential to continue to improve.

"I finally have a direction to work on. ”

Ethan adjusted the course to make it easier for the ship to take advantage of the wind, and then opened the island pointer to see if there were any new floating islands nearby.

"Huh, are there any new islands?"

He looked at the pointer before setting sail, and at that time the pointer was still swinging cluelessly, so he found a random direction to move forward.

Unexpectedly, it was not far away, and after chatting with Arthur for a few words, the pointer found the island.

Either they stayed outside the maximum search range of the pointer before, and their own movement happened to crash into the range. Or it was very coincidental and stumbled into the birth of a floating island.

"I guess I happened to drive into the area where the pointer was searching, and the possibility of stumbling into a new island is too low. Arthur saw the pointer in Ethan's hand and had the same thoughts and speculations.

"And...... It seems that we are not the only ones who have discovered this island. ”

Arthur followed Ethan's direction and noticed a ship at sea level.

It was a much larger ship than the Aurora, just by looking at the three masts and the number of sails hanging on it, probably the same tonnage as Brent's.

There are not many large ships of this class on calm seas, and Ethan is likely to collide head-on with a very powerful adventurer this time.

"I hope I don't run into robber-like adventurers again this time. ”

Ethan didn't know why, the adventurers he met at sea, except for the uncle he met at the beginning, were more robber than another, and he wondered if there was really no soil for good people to survive in this world.

"I don't want to run into someone like that again. ”

The distance in the sea is devastating, and when Ethan and Arthur discover the boat, they will also find him on the other side. However, on the premise of being able to see, both sides need to wait a long time to further observe the details of the opposite side.

It wasn't until most of the day that Ethan was able to see the outline of the ship through his binoculars.

"It's a large sailing ship close to the construction of the Galen ship. ”

The layout of the sails on such a large sailing ship is complex, which means that more manpower is needed - so it can be concluded that there are quite a few crew members on the opposite ship.

Speaking again, if you have a certain name in the sea of calm, your subordinates will not be short of people.

Many adventurers, after seeing the cruelty of this world, will give up and fight alone.

Those who are a little ambitious will gather a group of friends to fight together, and at the same time strive to become the leader of this group of people, and finally make a name for themselves in this sea.

Those who are slightly less ambitious, or simply want to live well, will generally choose a strong captain to attach to. Therefore, the number of subordinates also shows the strength of this captain from the side - the stronger the adventurer, the more there is no shortage of people who take the initiative to take refuge.

Like Ethan, there are only two kittens in the whole boat, and even the bigger boats dare not drive. has always insisted on fighting alone, and his companions have chosen carefully, and then he has to break through the sea by himself, which is the wonder of this world.

As time passed, even if the two ships were not head-on, they were obviously moving towards the same goal, so that the distance between the two ships kept shrinking, and Ethan slowly saw some details of the opposite ship.

"The other party has a magic stone cannon. ”

There weren't a lot of them, and Ethan saw three gun ports on the upper deck aimed at his side. Considering that the Galen was the pinnacle of sail battleships, this similarly constructed ship must also have a multi-deck design, which means that there may be more cannons hidden.

"This strength...... It's a lot stronger than the Flame Hand gang!"

Arthur was lamenting the opponent's combat effectiveness, assessing how to deal with it if the opponent turned his face. Ethan suddenly found that the ship on the opposite side ...... It seems like all of them are women?
