Chapter Twenty-Nine: Leisure on the Island
"Ahh "On the sands of Swordfish Island, white seabirds hover in the air, occasionally dropping a few fine feathers. On the sparkling sea, the swimming fish in the sea continue to jump out of the water, splashing one after another. Colorful shells are gently pushed up the beach by the waves, shining in the sun, and several shallow sea creatures with cracked tooth turtles crawling from the sand into the water with heavy carapaces on their backs.
It's been the fourth day of being trapped on the isolated island, but none of the tourists on the isolated island feel anxious. Because the transportation association under the joint division of the Chamber of Commerce and the Goblin Chamber of Commerce has received the news from the Sea Clan, and has sent a clipper ship to Swordfish Island to contact it just a day ago, within a day or two, the ship that is enough to pick up all the stranded passengers on the island will arrive on Swordfish Island, this news is enough to reassure everyone.
Worries aside, these few days have been a fun experience for the passengers on board. The passengers who can afford to travel by float boat are each very wealthy, and their daily life has been busy and noisy, and now they are suddenly away from the crowd and come to the deserted island, feeling the loneliness of being forgotten by the world on the island while ensuring a luxurious quality of life, and the special feeling that has never been felt before and the thrill of the spaceship falling make every passenger very satisfied, and this satisfaction is enough to overshadow the doubts about the flight accident and the dissatisfaction with the lack of some luxury accessories.
And the captain is also a smart man, and does not force the guests to be confined to the ship, every day, the guests have a few hours to entertain themselves on the beach, just like they felt when they were in the city of a thousand islands. This is not the captain's recklessness, but a decision made after careful consideration and investigation, which fully guarantees the safety of the passengers.
It's not safe on the sea. The sea in the world of Yara is very strange, and from the surface of the sea, it can be divided into two parts, one is the sailing line, and the other is the lost route. With the coastline of 10 kilometers as the boundary, everything is normal on the sea within 10 kilometers, whether it is navigation or flight, it can be carried out smoothly, but there are many reefs on the sea surface on the navigation line around the continent, so it is difficult to use a big ship to drive around the continent, and the trade routes at sea are often short-distance trade routes, and there is no possibility of long-distance transportation. Ten kilometers away from the coastline is completely different, as if there is a clear boundary separating the inner and outer sides, and on the outer side is a world full of dense fog, the sea surface is shrouded in fog all year round, and the visibility does not exceed five meters, and it is the same all year round, whether morning or night, it is difficult for any sea ship to drive in the fog alone, even if the presence of a compass does not help much. However, this does not mean that the Lost Route cannot be navigated, because although the water surface is covered by dense fog, everything is normal underwater, so ships that want to sail to the open sea will hire several sea tribes to navigate the whole process in the water, so that everything can often go smoothly. Of course, the situation in the sea is complicated, and even if there are sea tribes, they often encounter dangers, and the rate of getting lost is even as high as more than 10 percent, which also makes terrestrial creatures hesitant to explore the ocean.
The ocean area of Yala World is so large that it is difficult to calculate according to the sea tribe, and the number of islands protruding from the sea surface is also exaggerated, it is said that there are more than 1,000 large islands with an area of more than 5,000 square kilometers, and there are more than 300 super-large islands with an area of more than 20,000 square kilometers, and there are countless small and medium-sized islands.
Most of these islands, especially large and super-large islands, are forested, with trees and monsters, but they are rich in products, precious minerals, and very large reserves of flora and fauna, which are like a golden country for most intelligent creatures. So every year, countless adventurers travel between the island and the mainland, exploiting the island in exchange for high profits. But the acquisition of benefits is always accompanied by corresponding risks, and every year at the same time, a large number of adventurers never return, or lost in the depths of the vast sea, or buried in the mouth of the island monsters that are far more ferocious than the land monsters, even if they have high strength, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not end up like this, Catherine's parents are a typical example of this.
In addition to the adventurers, the mercenaries will naturally not let go of this tempting cake, as early as when the relationship between humans and other races is gradually easing, and the war in the human world is gradually decreasing, the mercenary union will target the island. The current top ten mercenary unions are all hired by major forces, and they focus their main forces on the exploration and development of the islands in the Trek Zone all year round, although they cannot fundamentally change the environment of the forest-type islands so that they can live in them, but they can obtain a large number of precious items from the islands to meet the requirements of their employers, so as to get high rewards. Basically, even if you are just a low-level professional, as long as you are a mercenary exploring the island for a few years, you can enjoy the luxurious life of the rich with a lifetime of food and clothing, but there is a premise, you must be able to survive, and this is not something that everyone can do.
Of course, these are just the situations outside the Lost Route, and inside the Lost Route is much better, in the forests on the island, there is not much difference between the strength of the Warcraft and the Warcraft on the mainland, and the security is correspondingly much higher. And the monsters in the forest often don't leave the forest to come to the beach by the sea, even if they occasionally run out, they are often only the weaker monsters on the periphery, just a few dozen low-level mages and technicians on the floating boat are enough to solve it, not to mention that there are four legendary professionals plus a demigod in charge, which is why the captain dares to let the passengers go to the beach during the day, although the captain has sworn to the gods not to disclose the information that Pannis is a demigod, but it is still possible to use it.
At noon on the fourth day, the seaside was still full of joy. The ship's service staff moved all the seats in the coffee shop to the beach and built a few simple houses on the beach from simple materials, which at first glance looked like the epitome of a beach paradise in the city of a thousand islands. The noble and wealthy passengers dressed coolly and enjoyed their island survival journey on the beach, or at least the island survival journey they thought they had, and there was a lot of fun everywhere.
"Haha, the water is so cold today. "On a beach far away from the floatboat, tourists are not allowed to enter because it is outside the protected area, but several masters of Nelly's adventure group are naturally not included in this list, so this beach has become the exclusive property of five people, and no one exists except them. Freya wore a one-piece blue swimsuit with a special body shape, a swimsuit cut from the skin of a gallon jellyfish that was both breathable and waterproof, clinging to her skin, outlining her figure very clearly, or rather, highlighting the fat on her body very obviously. But she didn't care about it herself, swimming around in the shallow sea, flexible like a fish, well, although the fish was very bloated, but still nimble. Freya, who had dived in, suddenly emerged from the water, ran a few steps in the water, picked up the seawater and splashed it at Lina, who was cowering in the kneeless water: "You can cool off too, hehehe." ”
"Ahh Suddenly attacked, Lina let out a cute scream. Not long ago, a strange thing happened, Lina and Catherine's special conservative one-piece swimsuit that they had brought in their salute had mysteriously disappeared, and no one knew where the two clothes had gone. For this reason, after beating Pannis, the two girls had no choice but to buy a new one on the ship, but the jellyfish skin swimsuit prepared on the ship for passengers to play in the beach park of the Thousand Islands City naturally could not have a conservative one-piece, so now Lina and Catherine are exposed to a large area of skin, shining with a healthy glow in the sun. Lina is afraid of water and longs to play in this water, but once the water reaches her chest, she will panic and struggle and eventually lead to drowning, so she only dares to walk in the shallow sea, and then is bullied by Freya from time to time.
Catherine was tired of swimming, draped in a wide bath towel, sunglasses on the bridge of her nose, sitting on the beach with a languid appearance, slender legs, and her wheat-colored skin was still dripping with water, like the crystal dew hanging from the surface of a ripe pas. By Catherine's side, Vivien's body was hidden under a silk loose long-sleeved shirt and trousers, burying herself in the sand, her face was also wearing small sunglasses, and she was half-squinting and drowsy under the sunglasses.
Occasionally, seabirds land on the beach, and humans are rarely seen on the shore, looking curiously at these behemoths, chirping and exchanging opinions with each other, as if discussing what these guys are.
"Hey, eat. Pannis's shout caught the attention of the maidens. On the beach behind the girls, a simple pergola was erected, and several long thin tree trunks were fixed into a conical base, and more branches covered with branches and leaves were placed on the base like tiles, which played a good shading effect. There is a fire under the pergola, and on the grill in the fire, a variety of shellfish and fish emit an enticing aroma. Wearing only a pair of baggy shorts, Pannis sat cross-legged by the grill and waved to the girls, "If I don't come back, I'll eat all by myself." ”
"It's coming, it's coming. The maidens could not resist Pannis's cooking, and quickly gathered together and ran barefoot on the fine sand towards the pergola. While running, Catherine inadvertently turned around and suddenly stopped: "What's that?"
The girls looked back together, and on the blue sea, seven or eight dorsal fins suddenly erected, and the dorsal fins were breaking through the waves at high speed and swimming towards the island.
"It's a megamouth. Lina, who was familiar with the Warcraft Illustrated Book, was very sensitive to Warcraft, and frowned and said, "Very fierce sharks, but they generally don't get close to the shore, it's strange." ”
"Anyway, let's go and inform them first. Catherine said, "Let the tourists stay away and then find out why." (To be continued.) )
