Chapter 67: The Blood of the Giants

"The knight doesn't lie. ”

"I know. ”

Magellan reluctantly followed the baron towards the sea, the knight would not lie, he was just wrong.

The puddle on the shore was not small, and the big fish was trying to escape, and it jumped high from the water, bringing a splash with it.

Then Magellan froze.

In front of him was really a fish with a blue belly.

"You saw that, right?"

Magellan nodded.

The baron was not mistaken, when the big fish jumped out of the water, it was a fish with a red head and a blue belly, exactly as the countess had said.

It's a wonderful coincidence that when in the water, this fish has its back up like any other fish, but when it jumps, it always has its back down.

This peculiar fish has no dorsal fin, pectoral fins on either side of its body, and is a perfectly symmetrical fusiform from head to tail, even with its mouth, and when turned over, it looks exactly like a strange fish with a blue belly and a white back.

Originally, in the water, Magellan saw a school of fish swimming in the water, and he did not think of this at all, until now, everything that was contrary to common sense can be explained.

The Valkyries and the sailors who left the record obviously saw the fish jumping out of the water on the surface of the sea, and in their surprise they remembered this strange sight, and inadvertently ignored the appearance of the fish in the water, leaving behind a record that defied common sense.

"This is the fish we are looking for......"

Magellan looked up at the sea in the distance, it was a rare sunny day, the sun reflected through the snow, illuminating the whole world, and the color of the sea became brighter.

But nowhere here looks like a battlefield of giants.

There are no huge corpses, no traces of fighting, there is only wilderness here.

"But there's still a long way to go. ”

After breakfast, Magellan and Brunhilde continued their voyage, and he already had a plan.

This fish is not rare, but its distribution range is not very wide, determine the range of the fish, and then search the range to find a suitable place as a port, most of which will be the so-called giant battlefield.

With the help of the Valkyrie mount, Magellan moves quickly.

The sunny weather also helped, with the red heads of the fish standing out, and everything went incredibly well.

It didn't take long for Magellan to establish one thing: the range of this particular fish is pitifully small, and their main diet is a unique algae that grows only on the surface of the sea near this coast.

"I smell a familiar stench here. ”

Brunhilde gave Magellan's obvious look of disgust in front of some of the floating algae that Magellan had gathered, which made the latter laugh: "The smell of giant's blood, right?"

"How do you know ......"

Valkyrie was amazed, and although she knew that the mortal in front of her was extraordinary, she shouldn't have been able to recognize the giant's blood before she had seen it.

"This is the battlefield of the giants, and if it isn't, it's not too far away. ”

Magellan said, the smile on his face gone.

All the evidence proves that his inferences are not wrong, but until now he has not found the real battlefield.

"I must have missed something. ”

Magellan quickly put away his frustration and began to re-examine his train of thought.

"That's ...... so"

"What do you think of?"

Brunhilde looked at the mortal in front of him, and a sense of powerlessness rose in his heart again.

"The currents limit the range of blood to escape, and their source is ......"

Magellan had already mastered the direction of the sea in his long search, and as he knew, it belonged to the sphere of influence of the northward warm current, and the topography of the coast allowed a cold current to move from north to south, but it was only a small range, and it quickly collided with a huge warm current, and was dispersed by an unstoppable force.

This confined the "Giant's Blood" carried by the cold snap to the vicinity of the coast, as well as the seaweed and fish that grew with it.

The source of the cold snap is the sea in the northeast.

"We walked a little north along the coast. ”

The Valkyrie did not understand the meaning of Magellan's mouth of "ocean current", but she knew that this mortal was right.

Pegasi flapped their wings and the two of them raced across the sea, the strange reef on the shore receding, but Magellan never saw a suitable place to be a harbor.

Until he saw a strange island.

It was a cone-shaped black island, with obvious traces of volcanic eruptions, towering over the coast, more like an exceptionally large reef, with sand at its feet, half on the shore and half in the water.

"What is that?"

Brunhilde had never seen anything like it, and neither had Magellan.

"It could be the source of the giant's blood. ”

Even in the real world of the gods, the truth of the myth is still hidden behind a fog, and what makes that particular seaweed appear could be the blood from the corpses of giants or the ash from volcanic eruptions.

"But there is still no port here. ”

Magellan looked at the extinct volcano and had a ridiculous idea in his mind.

"Maybe that mountain is suitable. ”

"What?"

Brünnhilde felt he had misheard.

"If that mountain is hollow, it's the best port. ”

"How could it be. ”

Magellan looked at the black cone-shaped extinct volcano, and the thoughts in his heart became clearer and clearer.

It may sound impossible, but the standard form itself represents something, and with the story of the battle between the Ice and Fire Giant, maybe his crazy ideas are the truth.

The Valkyrie approached the rocky mountain with Magellan at a terrifying pace, and then dropped him on the shore.

"There's no entrance here," Brünnhilde couldn't be mistaken, and Magellan saw it, and there was no hole at the foot of the rocky hill on the shore, and if it was hollow, or there was a harbor in it, there would be no way for the people in it to get ashore, "I'll go up and see." ”

Magellan nodded, watching Pegasus carry the Valkyrie into the sky and walk into the water.

Rising water levels usually mask a lot of things, and while it's almost certain that he's guessed wrong, Magellan doesn't mind taking the time to confirm.

The water was so cold that he forgot to let the Valkyrie leave his magic, but Magellan quickly adapted to the temperature and began to look underwater for something suspicious.

He was unable to open his eyes underwater without the magic of Rune, but soon, Magellan sensed an unusual undercurrent.

Very regular, not fast, the direction is exactly opposite the coast, swinging back and forth.
