Chapter 433: Crossing the Water Mirror

We had traveled a long distance before the speed of the ship had completely decreased, and the rain curtain in front of us had become very clear in sight, and it was the first time I had seen such a uniform rainstorm in my life.

Pouring rain, pouring heavy rain, that is, when the rain is heavy to a certain extent, it looks like someone is pouring water on the ground from a big scoop from the sky, and the rain is impossible to be even.

But the rain curtain in front of it is like a mirror drawn with dotted lines, as if every drop of rain is falling at exactly the same speed, and the size, light transmittance, and shape of each drop of rain are exactly the same.

This kind of rain is as if it is produced from an assembly line.

After the speed of the boat slowed down completely, the old wolf carefully steered the rudder, so that the boat kept swinging back and forth in the process of traveling, the sea water in this area seemed to be polluted, the water showed a dull gray-green, and the visibility was relatively low, but looking down, you could still see a large number of black shadows floating under the water surface, which should be a reef lying in the water.

There was a sharp undercurrent surging in the crevices between the reefs and the reefs, and it was not easy for the boat to walk, and on several occasions I heard the sound of the bottom of the boat rubbing against the reef, and if it weren't for the old wolf's skill, we might have run aground.

"Boss Gai, look!"

I was worried about the reef underwater, when Monceau next to me suddenly shouted, and as soon as I looked up, I saw a huge mirage on the curtain of water.

It was a dark city, and it was a huge bird's-eye view in a curtain of water.

It was supposed to be what you saw when you flew over the city in a helicopter, but because the mirage was high up and we were at sea level, it looked like a city in the sky hanging upside down above us.

I don't know if the city has lost some color in the process of mirage, as far as the eye can see, all the buildings look very dull, and the streets are almost gray-green, but on the catch, I can clearly see the outlines of steel of various colors, I carefully identified them, and was surprised to find that those things turned out to be cars.

Monceau excitedly told me that the city must be Gaia, and that the way the roads extended, and the large areas of buildings, were exactly what his master had depicted.

Since there are still cars in this city, it means that in these telekinesis, this disappeared town has indeed not been cut off from the outside world.

But didn't Monceau say that there was a huge castle in the middle of the city, but I didn't find the castle, but only saw a large flower pond in the middle of the town.

Strange to say, the buildings in the city are all dark-toned, except for the cars and flowers.

The closer we got to the rain chain, the denser the reef became, and when we were about ten meters away from the curtain of water, the undercurrent under the surface suddenly disappeared, and the old wolf decided to anchor here.

I looked down the curtain to the west, and saw a boat at the end of the line of sight, where it was staying, in the still water where the undercurrent had disappeared, and if I guessed correctly, it was the ship of the Exocets.

Sif also saw the boat and ran over and asked if I wanted to go over and have a look.

I could understand her eagerness, but shook my head.

This area is full of reefs, and there are undercurrents in some places, if you want to pass, you must take great risks, and the people of the Flying Fish team have a high probability of entering the water mirror, and the things they grabbed from the Sea Worm are estimated to have been taken away, and we risk going to their ship to check, and there is a high probability that there will be no gain.

When the risks you take are completely disproportionate to the benefits you may receive, you can only choose to err on the side of caution.

Sif was a smart girl, and she could see that, so after I shook my head, she didn't show much resistance.

Half an hour later, we packed up and let the old wolf take the boat and lead everyone into the water curtain.

This water curtain should be the water mirror mentioned by the old wolf before, he said before that the big ship can't enter the water mirror, this is not wrong at all, after drilling into the water mirror, the reef under the water surface suddenly becomes extremely dense, that is, the boat under us is narrow enough, light enough, in order to run in the gap between the stones, the big ship will inevitably run aground as soon as it comes in, and it is very difficult to even turn around after running aground.

The rain lapped against the planks and our shoulders, stirring up a translucent silhouette around each person's body, and the old wolf was so careful that I could only see his back, but I could not hear his voice, and in our ears there was only the sound of the torrential rain piercing the sea.

Sailing in such a place is as dangerous as navigating the cliffs, and the rain erodes the view, so you can't see what's ahead or under the water, and you can't hear anything other than the sound of falling rain.

In such an environment, anything can happen.

But the danger did not come as suddenly as expected, and everyone's nerves tensed all the way, and the more they encountered a heavy fog around three o'clock in the afternoon, there was nothing unusual in the rain curtain.

At seven o'clock in the evening, we finally broke through the rain curtain and rushed into a dead dark sea.

At that time, the others were using the barrel to clear the rain from the trough, I was a little apprehensive, so I put down the barrel, leaned near the bow to look, just pressed my body against the edge of the boat, the gravity that had been pressing on my shoulders suddenly disappeared, lost the suppression of the rain, I actually felt a sense of relief, and then I saw a column of trembling lights.

The light came from the path in the distance, and I don't know if it was my illusion, but as the ship moved forward, the light seemed to move sideways, like a ghost fire floating on the shore of the island.

By the time I looked closer, the glow was gone.

I couldn't help but frown twice and asked Lilith beside me, "Did you see that?" ”

Lilith nodded, "You said those lights, right?" It seems that a few old ladies flickered on the shore with a lamp. It's a little far away, and I can't see it very clearly. ”

While Lilith and I were talking, the boat had completely emerged from the rain curtain, and at the moment when the boat and the rain curtain were completely disconnected, the sound of the rain hitting the sea stopped abruptly, and the surroundings suddenly fell completely silent.

From extremely noisy to extremely quiet, there is only a short moment, and the fusion of the environment gives people a very strong sense of falling, as if the whole heart is hanging all at once.

Almost at the same time, everyone turned their heads and glanced in the direction of the rain curtain.

The rain curtain is still there, and only the sound is gone.

I looked around, the sky was already dark, under the night dome, people's vision was very limited, I could not see the edge of the path, nor could I see how big the water area was at this time, but there was a faint feeling in my heart that the island seemed to be extremely large, and the water area we were in was only a small area.

This calm, heart-pounding water may just be a small lake connected to the sea.
