"Captain Ethan. ”

"Just call me Ethan. ”

"Okay, Ethan. You can also just call me Cleo. Cleo behaved very politely, and his appearance was very different from the adventurers Ethan had seen before, like the kind of second generation who was born better and had received systematic education since childhood: "You said before that there is a mysterious power on this island, which can make people fall into illusions unconsciously?"

"Yes. ”

Ethan didn't hide it, he simply told Cleo what he knew, he didn't care about this bit of information, and he knew that this information alone would not stop the group from landing on the island, and he was curious how these people would respond after knowing about this kind of trouble.

Cleo had been listening quietly to Ethan's description, occasionally asking for small details, and then standing there quietly thinking, Ethan noticed that he glanced at himself and Logan a few times as he thought, and even glanced at his own ship.

He's watching what's going on on his side!

Ethan immediately realized what Cleo was doing, he was deducing how much credibility his words had based on the situation on his side, and at the same time, how much threat that strange force had, and seemed to want to judge whether there were any losses on his side from the reaction of his side.

"Thank you very much for your information and help, maybe this news will allow my crew to avoid some unknowable dangers and save their lives. ”

Cleo thanked Ethan as soon as he finished speaking, as if he had been listening to Ethan's words intently from beginning to end, if it weren't for Ethan's senses far beyond ordinary people's, he wouldn't have noticed his cautious 'little movements'.

This is a very cautious captain.

Think about what kind of place this is, the other party has a lot of crew members, and he can command so many subordinates very well, which proves that he is good here, then his own ability does not need to be questioned, and it is normal to have these actions.

If, in spite of it, he immediately believed in the information provided by a stranger, he would have felt strange.

After a while of exchange between the two sides, Cleo finally said hello to Ethan and returned to his ship, and the Eternity slowly started again, heading for a place not far in front of the Aurora, which was the most suitable place to land on the shore nearby, and could also get some distance from the Aurora.

Before, it could be said that I didn't know the situation, so I came up to have some exchanges and convey goodwill by the way.

Now that the goodwill has been reached and the information has been obtained, the Eternity must find a mooring spot of its own, and cannot remain stuck on the outside of the Aurora, which is suspected of trapping the Aurora and being unfavorable to people.

In addition, it is too close to each other, and both sides dare not let their guard down when they rest at night, which is not a good thing for both sides, so it is necessary to keep a proper distance.

Waiting for the other party's ship to slowly move away, Logan, who had never opened his mouth, exchanged his views on Cleo with Ethan.

"This person is not easy to deal with. ”

"I know. ”

Ethan connected to the communicator and reminded Diana that she was ready to come out. Previously, as the Eternity was approaching, he used the communicator to get in touch with Diana, telling her not to come out and hide in his captain's quarters. In the event of a conflict, she can fight her way out of the window of the captain's room and launch an attack on the opposing ship.

This is the greatest confidence that Ethan dares to let the other party approach, with Diana's current strength, it doesn't take much effort to dismantle a wooden sailboat, if she uses divine power to bombard, one shot can completely wipe out the Eternity from this world, and there will be no scum left.

Diana walked out of the cabin, stood next to Ethan and Logan, and looked at the Eternity, which had opened a distance of at least two hundred meters, now the two sides could relax their vigilance a little, this distance would be detected by the other party if they wanted to attack, and there was enough buffer time, which was a suitable distance.

"Who are those?"

"Strangers. ”

Diana glanced at Ethan, she now understands a little bit, human beings are not all kind, human nature is very complicated, many times you have good intentions can not be exchanged for the same kindness, and even invite malice.

"What do they want to do?"

"Like us, you want to go up to the island and see what this island has to offer, right?"

"With us?"

"No, I should try it alone first. ”

Not long after the Eternity came to a standstill, Ethan saw a small team of several people set foot on the island, which was a good opportunity to observe, and he and Logan and Diana stood on the stern of the ship, using binoculars to observe the group.

He also glanced over at the Eternal, where Cleo had not set foot on the island, but was standing on the stern tower with his first mate, like Ethan, with binoculars and observing his crew, and Ethan had noticed that there was a lookout at the top of the Eternal's mast doing the same.

Because the island is a grassland, the view will not be obstructed, and everyone can clearly see the situation of the crew.

At first, they moved forward on the island normally, going deeper into the center of the island, but as they gradually moved farther and closer to the center of the island, the group of people actually slowly dispersed, and at this time the Eternity seemed to have realized that something was wrong, and Ethan had given enough information before, Cleo began to ask his men to signal the scattered crew.

Ethan had already noticed that every time the crew advanced some distance, they would look back at the position of the Eternal, obviously to see if there was any signal coming, and they still maintained this habit, but no matter what happened on the Eternal, those people continued to walk forward as if they didn't see it, and these people were more and more scattered, and now it was like a few unrelated people walking around the island.

Their route was not fixed, but they continued to move deeper into the island, and suddenly disappeared after some distance.

Ethan knew that the group must have been completely caught in the illusion, and with enough grass to cover it, it was indeed impossible to see the person who fell to the ground in the distance.

"They had looked back at their boat before, but continued to move forward as if they hadn't noticed anything unusual, which meant that their senses had been affected at the time, and their boat was still very quiet in their eyes, even if it was a signal that everything was okay. ”

"That's how it should be. ”

Before, he was in a deep illusion and didn't know what was going on, but now that the crew of the Eternity had shown it in person, and after standing with a third party and witnessing the whole process, Logan felt uncomfortable - even more uncomfortable to think that he had been put down inexplicably like this before.

"The ship's men are going to move again. ”

Diana's eyesight is far beyond that of ordinary people, and she doesn't need a telescope to see the situation on the Eternity clearly, so she noticed Cleo's movements for the first time.

"The captain seems to be going to the island himself. ”

"At this time, it is really not appropriate for the captain to continue to do nothing. ”

Regardless of whether the captain can rescue these crew members or not, he must make some action and make a clear statement, even if it is very brainless, it is better to send his men directly to rescue than to tangle some plan there.

The crew can feel that they are valued, and they will willingly die for the captain. In this respect, Cleo did a good job, even better than most captains, because he did it himself.

"It doesn't seem like a sane decision. ”

"It's not a good thing to be too sane at this time. ”

"If he's also stranded on the island, shall we do it?"

Whether Cleo is dead or alive, in fact, Ethan doesn't care, he is more curious about Cleo's strength, maybe he has a way to deal with the mysterious power on this island? But listening to the words of the two people, Ethan still gave his own answer.

"If he's in trouble, we can help him. ”

Although Ethan is not a good person, Cleo left a good first impression on him, he doesn't mind helping such an adventurer, he won't help people when he sees them like Brent, but he is not a person who will not save him when he dies.

The two around Ethan, one is cold on the outside and hot on the inside, and the other is simply a super-good-hearted hero, it is impossible to sit back and watch Cleo die - unless Cleo has a clear bad record, is a super villain, and dies 800 times and can't wash away the sins on his body, then these two will definitely not make a move.

Compared to some superheroes who are absolutely righteous, these two seem to be slightly less 'righteous', but they are more temperamental towards Ethan, which is why he will pull Logan on board, become friends with Diana, and even personally instruct her on how to control energy.

If you change it to Superman...... Although he admires Superman's personality and can make friends with the other party, he will never let him be his crew or partner, because it is to make trouble for himself.

In addition to ability, the most important point for Ethan to choose a partner is that his personality and three views should be suitable.

"The captain has landed on the island. ”

Ethan and Logan raised their binoculars at the same time to look at the Eternity, and found that Cleo was the only one who landed on the island, and the first mate Bob continued to stay on the ship, through the biological detection on the glasses, Ethan knew that all the crew members on the opposite side had gathered on the deck - about fifty people, with the displacement of the Eternity, fifty people was already a small configuration.

Compared to the number of personnel on the other side, Ethan's eyes were always focused on Cleo, because he found that Cleo had changed into a set of equipment, which he felt a little familiar.

"Huh, it's a bit like the equipment of the assassin I killed earlier. ”
