Chapter 317: Physical Work
Ollie hesitated for a moment and asked, "Snatching an island directly from the June Alliance, are you going to turn against Taylor?"
"Eh, this is the island of the June Alliance?" Lukka figured out where the land belonged.
"If you occupy all of it, you can't return it, right?" Thea has always been reluctant to give up what she has in her hands.
Luca smiled: "Of course it won't be returned." I'm just taking the island now, and it's up to Taylor to turn against us because of that, that's his business. But I don't think he's so reckless. ”
The war between the June Alliance and the Brohn Empire is not completely over, and although it seems that the Alliance has a better chance of winning now, even if they win, it will be a big loss of vitality.
For Lukka, the island was a bridgehead for expanding its sphere of influence, but for the Alliance, it was a small border town, barren and vulnerable. With Taylor's cunning, he would never be at this time, because this small island of no mention was an enemy of Luca.
"Kate has to tell Kate as soon as possible, she should be able to get the most out of the island. "Ollie has a lot of faith in her sister.
"I'm going to write a letter," Luca came to his senses as soon as he finished speaking, "no, I can't send a letter now." When we get our mouth shut back, we'll go back to Tata Island at once. ”
After recording the data of the pile of stones in front of him, on Hibiscus Island, Luca had all the things to do. He led everyone back to the docks, and the Silent Death set sail again.
Over the next half month, Lukka visited the six islands he had marked on the chart, finding a fixed point on each of them that resembled the pile of stones.
Once the last island was recorded, he returned to the Silent Reaper.
Thea couldn't help but ask, "For so long, you just record numbers and don't do anything, do you still want to get that magic circle?"
"Well, I'm about to get started. Luca said.
"Then what are you doing for half a month?" Phil was also very strange.
"That's right, if the circle is divided and sealed, every part needs to be on the same level, isn't this recording the altitude of each anchor point? Otherwise, if there are too many misalignments, it will not be possible to form a magic circle. Luca explained.
"So you start now?" Phil sat on the side of the boat, watching Lukka's movements intently.
Lukka raised his staff, and the magic flowed on the tip of his right finger.
After a second, he suddenly said, "No, not yet." ”
Phil's body shook a little, and he almost fell into the sea by his words: "What's the matter?"
Luca said: "Every line in the circle must be completed in one go, and now the first one I want to draw, which is 184 nautical miles long, must not be interrupted during the channeling, otherwise the work will be lost." At this length, even if you ride the Peregrine Falcon, it will take almost a day.
"So, I'm going to go and eat a good meal and go to the toilet now, so that I don't feel like I can't help it halfway.
"Besides, I can't steer the flow of mana at the same time. ”
With that, he picked up his pen and measured it on the chart, drawing a precise curve.
"Wait a minute, let's change to the Peregrine Falcon, and strictly follow this route, if there is a little deviation, what will lead to the final result of this magic circle, it's hard to say. Luca said.
"Don't worry, leave it to me. Daniel patted his chest and said that even if he switched to the Peregrine Falcon, his perception of the ocean was enough to accurately control the ship's course.
Seeing that Crete also nodded, Lukka ran to eat a full meal with confidence.
An hour later, he burped up on the Peregrine Falcon's deck and finally began drawing the giant circle.
It was an extremely laborious task, the first stroke was quite simple, with a few lines twisting in the middle, and the sea was surging with undercurrents, and Crete and Daniel did their best to keep the Peregrine Falcon perfectly on course.
The last stroke of the circle was more difficult, the shape was straight, but the length reached 423 nautical miles, Lukka did not close his eyes for two days and two nights, but fortunately his posture was not restricted when guiding the flow of magic, and Ollie brought him a chaise longue, allowing Lukka to half-lie in it to complete the last point.
And that's not all, considering that he might not be able to afford to buy the Shut Up Silver Coins, Lukka repeated the same side, burying a second forced trading array on the anchors of the six islands.
By the time this was all done, almost two months had passed.
He rested for the day and let the Peregrine Falcon return to Hibiscus Island, where it had been. This island was chosen not because of any special anchor here, but because of the six islands, only this one has the Poseidon Stone.
The Poseidon Stone is on the south side of the island and is as shabby as the island itself. Not only is it much smaller than the one on Tata Island, but the fossilized shells on it are also mutilated.
"Can this thing still work?" Ollie hesitated as she looked at the inconspicuous stone.
"Why don't I scold a few words first?" Daniel was eager to try.
"I'll try it first, and if it doesn't work, you can scold it again. Lukka walked over to the Poseidon Stone and put his hand on the surface of the stone.
"Hey, who's that, are you listening?" he exclaimed, "There are some questions you must want to know the answers to, right?
He cleared his throat and said in a straight voice:
"Why hasn't the passage on Dongqing been opened?Why has the divine envoy Hall disappeared?Where is the switch of the passage gone?Is it the impact of the magical world or the end of the main god?Please come with me into the ...... No, come to Hibiscus Island for answers. ”
Everyone had grown their mouths and didn't keep up with Luca's brain circuits at all. It's no wonder that who else but him has watched that TV show that didn't make a fuss?
"Did you bring medicine?" Thea asked, tugging at Phil's sleeve.
"Bring it," Phil frowned, "but he's so sick that my medicine doesn't necessarily work." ”
After Luca finished speaking, he looked at the sea in front of him and waited for a while.
The sea today was unusually calm, not even a hint of wind.
Suddenly, the Poseidon Stone emitted a pale blue light, and the voice of the Ocean Goddess sounded inside: "Are you sick?
"Didn't I want to call you out, to create some suspense, otherwise I'm afraid you will ignore me. Although it was the first time that Lukka had spoken directly to the goddess of the sea, it was in a familiar tone.
"Ignore you?haha!" A cloud of smoke rose above the Poseidon Stone, slowly condensing into the shape of the Ocean Goddess, "I'm afraid that you won't be easy to find when you hide it, and you will still be indispensable as a road marker next time you open the passage." I didn't expect you to send it to the door yourself, little mage. ”
