382. Looking for Ghost Island

Su Huilan walked over to the sea breeze and smiled at Aoki: "There are a lot of beauties you know!" ”

Aoki smiled, "Are you talking about yourself?" ”

Su Huilan chuckled: "You look like a piece of wood, some people are still waiting for your wood to bloom, but they don't want you to even have flowers in the core." ”

Aoki said, "Are you still talking about you?" ”

"Flim Flam!" Su Huilan laughed even harder. After laughing for a while, she put away her smile and said, "You gave her the chip?" ”

Aoki nodded and said, "Yes, she is going back to Wuzhong soon, and she can bring it to Professor Mei." ”

Su Huilan knew that since Aoki did this, the other party was trustworthy, so she didn't ask any more.

Petru looked at the warship in the distance and said, "I think we'd better hurry up." ”

He didn't want to go out to sea with the back of the warship's ass, which would be a long distance in the visible range of the warship. When he came out just now, the American captain looked at him twice, and he felt very unsure.

Compared with warships, fishing boats leave port at a very fast pace. In a short time, they sailed out of Ahure Bay, and according to the location marked on the chart, they headed for some mysterious ghost island in the middle of the ocean.

According to Petrou's estimates, the voyage would take four to five days. Although the fuel on the ship was enough to run normally for half a month, he still pulled up the sails on the ship for the sake of insurance.

Petru was skilled at operating the engine and sail at the same time, using the dual power of the wind and the propeller to propel the ship forward. According to him, this not only saves fuel, but also increases speed, allowing him to reach his destination at least a day earlier.

Su Huilan used a radiometer to test the stone, but the instrument did not react at all, indicating that the stone was either not a problem in the first place, or the radioactive elements had decayed many years ago.

They spent the next few days on the boat, watching the sun leap out of the sea in the east in the morning and watching it set spectacularly in the west in the evening. On the endless sea, they could do nothing but wait.

Petru's ship had enough weapons to show off in front of Aoki and Su Huilan when he was bored.

When Aoki was in southern Yunnan, he used a gun with Shi Dazhuang, and he also fought with the quasi-army in Masuba, and saw the power of all kinds of firearms. At that time, he had the strange feeling that not only was he born to speak many languages, but he was also born to use firearms, as if he had fought in a previous life, and these memories were kept in some hidden corner of his brain.

Petru's arsenal was formidable, and in addition to conventional firearms, there were even mortars and torpedoes. Aoki had never heard that the fishing boat could be loaded with torpedoes, and he didn't know if it had been modified by Petro to install a torpedo launcher on the ship, so it was no wonder that he was reluctant to approach the warship, and if it was discovered by the Navy, he would properly treat you as a military intruder. It can also be seen from this that the redbeard pirate's murderous reputation is indeed well deserved.

Aoki can play with ordinary pistols, AKs, grenades, and even RPGs, but he is not familiar with some of the newer weapons, such as anti-materiel snipers and graphene bombs. And Su Huilan's familiarity with weapons surprised him very much, if he just understood, he wouldn't feel strange, after all, he was a professor, and his knowledge reserve alone was many times stronger than him, but the key was that Su Huilan's marksmanship was also very accurate, but her hands and figure didn't look like someone who had shot at all.

In the past few days, they have also studied the chart. Looking at the location of the islands marked with tab's mark on the chart, they made all kinds of guesses, such as what formation they were lined up into, or correspond to the constellations in the sky, but these explanations were not perfect.

What exactly is the purpose of tab?

Both Aoki and Su Huilan stubbornly believe that the tabs must have some connection to the inverted pyramids at the bottom of the sea, and that in order to unlock the secrets of the underwater pyramids, the secrets of these tabs must be unlocked. Petru, on the other hand, was skeptical, saying:

"What fool would look for so many islands in a million square kilometers of the sea? The U.S. Pacific Fleet's military charts don't show all of these islands, and according to you, even if people were able to sail from the Mediterranean to Polynesia 4,000 years ago, how many ships would they have to send to find them? 100,000? ”

"If these towers are hiding some mechanism, it's not safe to put on these islands. You must know that many of these islands are formed by submarine volcanoes, which may still be there today, may disappear tomorrow, and in a few days there will be another one two hundred miles away. If someone could do such a great project in the Pacific Ocean, wouldn't they even know about volcanic activity? ”

"I think it's probably a coincidence, that people at the time discovered that some of the islands had these strange stones that could affect people's spirits, and they took them as miracles. Later, there were some people who understood the true meaning of the spirit and became awakened wizards. You are the descendants of the wizards, and your ancestors formed an alliance that claims to maintain world peace, which may be the origin of spiritual power. ”

Neither Aoki nor Su Huilan spoke, falling into deep thought. No matter what Petru is talking about, one thing he is right about is that whatever the purpose of building these things, it would be unwise to choose these islands that could disappear at any moment.

After three days of sailing, they reached their intended seas, but as Petrux feared, the envisioned island was not in sight.

"That's right, it was here last time." Petru said.

"Quack, there is sea on all sides, how do you know if you are in the wrong place?" The crow, unwilling to be lonely, cried.

"Ask your kind," said Petru, not saying that his ship had a positioning system, but pointing to a flock of seagulls behind him who had been following the ship for a long time, "how did they know their way home?" ”

The crow said disdainfully: "That's because they fly high, and if they fly high, of course they can see far." ”

It jumped onto the windowsill of the wheelhouse, flapped its wings, and flew out towards the sea, and after a few hovers it flew high into the sky.

Aoki knows that the coal boss's flying ability is stronger than that of ordinary crows, probably because the coal boss belongs to the highland raven species.

The crow soon overtook the flying seagulls and soared like an eagle, becoming a small black dot in people's field of vision. After a while, the dot slowly grew larger, and then the figure of the coal boss with outstretched wings was seen, and after circling around, he stopped at the mast in the middle of the ship.

It tilted its head as if thinking about something, and then it rose into the sky and turned into a small black dot.

It went back and forth a few times before it returned to the cabin.

"How about it, fly high and see far?" Petru asked.

"Uh...... I just saw an island. "The coal boss didn't admit that he saw nothing in the sky except the sea and the horizon.

"Where's the island?" Petru hurriedly picked up the binoculars and looked around.

But the crow said, "I just turned around and it was gone." ”

Petru blew his red beard in anger, glared at him and said, "Lying bird!" ”

"No, I'm not lying." Raven said stubbornly.

Petru put down the binoculars and ignored it.

Aoki said, "I also seemed to feel the fluctuation of spiritual energy in front of me just now, but it disappeared all of a sudden. ”
