Chapter 582: Inert Energy Wave
"Failed?" Leo paused, his expression a little more serious.
Although Leo didn't know how powerful the old captain was talking about the Beacon Tower, he could compare it to the Turing root and wizarding circle of the Ice Queen itself, and this Beacon Tower was definitely more powerful than the Wizard Tower that Rupert Fitz had built for his men.
However, even in a place like Lake Town, the wizard tower can still vaguely sense its location, so it is impossible for the current ship's corresponding landmark tower to malfunction according to common sense, unless their current location is extremely far away from the landmark tower, and the other is that there is an extremely powerful force interfering with the connection between the Ice Queen and the landmark tower.
The two of them came to the deck, and the passengers on the ship were still acting leisurely, their emotions were still immersed in the ghost ship they had seen a few days ago, and most of the content of their conversation was related to it, not knowing that the ship was now lost at sea.
When Leo arrived on the deck, he didn't check the surrounding sea through the spirit net, but looked up to activate his spiritual vision skills and looked up into the air.
The weather at sea today is good, there are no clouds floating in the air, and the turquoise sky dome hangs overhead, giving a calm and peaceful atmosphere.
The moment Leo's vision was activated, his extraordinary vision pierced through the sky and saw something above the sky, which was supposed to be the moon of the Wycombe Abbey mother's nest.
The moment the surface of the moon full of science and technology appeared in his eyes, he already knew very well that they had not entered any subspace plane, and were still in the sea area of the Veron world, because neither Yam Island nor other subspace worlds that Leo had been to could see this brood moon.
After making sure that the ship had not entered a subspace like the island of Jam, Leo withdrew his gaze and looked around.
The power of the True Eye contained in the Psychic Vision easily allowed Leo to see hidden information that other eyes and vision abilities could not see, such as the energy waves that permeated the space of the surrounding sea.
Energy waves are active and inert, the vast majority of energy waves show active characteristics, only a few energy waves are inert characteristics, for the inert energy wave what is the energy efficiency, all civilizations in the universe have been only in the exploration and research, their utility is not very well understood, the only thing known is that it can isolate energy transmission.
Therefore, in space warfare, in sneak attack warfare, assault warfare, landing warfare and other wars, the attacking side will drop an inert energy wave on the battlefield to cut off the enemy's connection with the outside world, just like the current inert energy wave isolates the Ice Queen from the outside world.
"The cause of the failure of the Dao Beacon Tower has been found. Leo looked at the energy waves that filled the surrounding sea and said to the old captain who walked to his side.
"What is the reason?" asked the old captain impatiently.
"There is a force around this sea that is interfering with the connection of the beacon towers, and ......at the same time," Leo explained, shifting his gaze to the sea level on the right, "and this force is also interfering with your visual and other senses, so that you cannot see the real things around you." As he spoke, he saw Leo pointing in the direction he was looking at, and said, "I saw another small island over there, not very large, with some trees growing on it, and a small hill. ”
Hearing Leo's words, the old captain was immediately overjoyed, and nodded again and again: "Yes, it will be there, Ganquan Island, the coordinates I am looking for." ”
Then he looked in the direction that Leo pointed, but he still could not see any trace of the island, but he did not doubt what Leo said, but gave an order to the first mate who was at the helm, changed the direction of the ship, and sailed in the direction of Leo's finger.
Not long after, the sailors standing on the lookout pointed to the bow of the ship, shouted a few times, and then saw a small island slowly rising from the sea level, this scene was not only stunned by the old captain, but also the sailors and passengers on the deck felt extremely magical, and some of them shouted miracles.
It's no wonder they have such a reaction, because there is no such concept below sea level in the world of Velon, the whole sea is flat, and distant objects appear in the form of a whole even if they appear in the eyes of everyone, as long as the eyesight is strong enough, there is no limit to the distance within the line of sight, and those islands or ships on the sea will only cover their bodies because of their eyesight and other external factors, such as dense fog, etc., once they appear in people's eyes, they appear as a whole image.
Like now, the island slowly rises from below sea level, looking like a giant dragging the ship up in the sea, no wonder those ordinary people will shout miracles when they see this scene, because this scene is very similar to the description of the sea god building the island in the classic legend of the Poseidon Church, so the believers on the boat also subconsciously think that the sea god lifted the island to the water under the island in front of them.
Although the old captain knew that this island must have nothing to do with the sea god, he still felt extremely shocked when he saw the scene in front of him.
Compared to the surprised and shocked expressions of the people around him, the expression on Leo's face was more of confusion and contemplation.
It soon dawned on him that this was not a mental hallucination, but that the inert energy around him had some effect on the light and shadow of the surrounding sea, distorting all the scenes a little, thus creating the special effect of this planet's sea level.
However, what made him still a little puzzled was how this inert energy wave came from.
In his memory, there are no naturally occurring inert energy waves in the universe, almost all inert energy waves are related to some behaviors of cosmic civilizations, Leo does not think that the inert energy waves in the world of Velen will be unexpected, and Leo feels that this inert energy wave is very familiar, and the effect produced by the energy wave generators used by some advanced civilization armies to block communication is somewhat similar.
The Ice Queen sailed to the vicinity of the island, and the old captain stopped the ship, anchored it, and then announced to the passengers that he would repair the island for the night today, and that a bonfire would be held to relieve the fatigue of the frequent mood and long-term sitting.
The passengers were glad to accept the old captain's decision, and the sailors were also under the orders of the old captain, and some of the food and drinks used for the bonfire party were moved off the ship and transported to the island.
"Prepare a boat for me alone, I want to see the sea. While everyone on the boat was busy with the evening bonfire, Leo asked the old captain.
The old captain was stunned when he heard this, but he didn't ask too much, and directly asked the sailor to vacate a small boat and hand it to Leo.
"Wait, I'll be with me!" As Leo got into the dinghy and the sailors lowered him into the water, old Belen suddenly ran over, said to Leo, and jumped into the boat.
Leo frowned and said, "You know what I'm going for?"
"I don't know. Old Belen shook his head and said with a smile: "However, it's good for two people to take care of each other, isn't it?"
When Leo heard this, he didn't say anything more, and when the boat was put into the water, he didn't pick up the oars, but just said to old Belen to let him do a good job, and directly used his spiritual energy to push the current, like a sharp arrow off the string, quickly gliding on the water, and sailing back in the direction from which the ship came before.
Although old Belen had encountered storms and other weather at sea more than once, and had experienced many times when he had been tossed by the waves along with the ship, it was the first time that he had been so violently bumped, and he felt that if he spoke at this time, he was afraid that his teeth, which were shaking with the violent turbulence, would bite his tongue out uncontrollably.
However, this bumpy voyage did not last long, and after losing sight of the Ice Queen, Leo gradually reduced the output of psionic energy, reducing the ship's speed a lot, and the bump was greatly reduced.
"Phew, damn it, I'm afraid this old bone of mine has been shattered. The physical pain caused by the bumps made Old Belen can't help but curse, and then as if he was worried that Leo would misunderstand, he added: "It's not about you, it's just that my body can't withstand such bumps, after all, I'm not young." ”
Leo ignored Old Belen's self-deprecation, he looked intently at the bow of the ship, in fact, he had turned on his vision at the moment, and was observing the movement of the energy wave, which allowed him to find the source of the energy wave.
Although it is more appropriate to use the spirit network for a large-scale search like this, the problem is that in the current environment where inert energy waves gather, Leo's spirit network will definitely be affected, and the spiritual vision ability is more reliable at this time.
"Are you looking for a shard of the stars here?" asked Old Belen suddenly.
Leo was stunned for a moment when he heard this, turned his head to look at Old Belen, and asked, "What star fragment?"
"Don't you know?" Old Belen was stunned for a moment, looked at Leo, and judged from his expression that Leo really didn't know these things, so he explained.
Since ancient times, both the powerful and the church have been very interested in the fragments of the fallen stars, and they will also send people to take the initiative to collect them, and when the treasure hunter industry was born, the star fragments have become one of the main treasures that treasure hunters are looking for, and even treasure hunters have created a lot of methods to find star fragments, and have formed several genres.
However, these so-called star-seeking schools only apply to land, and almost all treasure hunters know that there is only one situation at sea where star fragments can occur, and this situation is an extraordinary sight on the sea, such as the scene of the island rising from the sea seen earlier, and so on.
Therefore, when old Belen heard that Leo wanted a dinghy, he thought that Leo was probably looking for the star fragments, and he was naturally unwilling to let go of this opportunity to take this adventure, so he followed.
"Star shards?" Leo was silent for a moment, nodded, and said, "It's not wrong to say it's a star shard. ”
Leo admitted Old Belen's speculation in disguise, and then said no more, controlling the ship in the direction of the source of the energy wave discovered by the Vision.
After about ten minutes of driving, Leo slowed down the ship and dispersed the psionic energy attached to the surface of the ship, allowing the ship to slide slowly on the surface of the water by inertia.
At this time, old Belen also knew the location, and he saw it not by the speed of the ship, but by the unusual brilliance of the water.
I saw that the water area into which the dinghy sailed into was shining with colorful light, which looked very gorgeous and eye-catching, and the water here was surprisingly calm, like a mirror, without a single wave, and even when the dinghy glided on the water, there were no waves.
After taxiing for some distance, the dinghy eventually came to a halt as it had no follow-up power.
Leo stood up and said to Old Belen, "You stay here, I'll go down and take a look." ”
"Okay. Although Old Belen also wanted to go into the water with him, he also knew that there had to be someone on board, otherwise if they left the dinghy, they would have to swim back to the Ice Queen. He didn't know if Leo would be able to swim back, but he was sure that he would never be able to swim back.
Leo stood on the edge of the dinghy, looked at the water, and then jumped directly into the water, the moment he entered the water, he immediately felt the abnormality of the surrounding seawater, perhaps because of the influence of the inert energy wave, the sea water has also become a lot of inertia, the whole feeling is like a ball of solidified jelly, there is no current, current, and the buoyancy has also weakened to the extreme, after Leo entered the water, it has been sinking.
If this happened to ordinary people, they would have panicked, but Leo was very calm, he created a psionic field, and through the separation effect of the psionic field, the necessary air could be separated from the seawater, but because of the influence of the surrounding energy waves, the psionic energy he consumed increased a lot.
Soon Leo sank to the bottom of the sea, his feet on the soft dust of the seabed, and as soon as he raised a puff of sediment, he was immediately crushed by the solidified sea water around him.
Leo, who turned on his vision, could still easily see the situation at the bottom of the sea, even in the dark environment of the seabed.
Because the sea water has become inert, all the fish that originally lived in this sea area sank to the bottom of the sea because they could not swim, and finally turned into a pile of bones.
Leo didn't stay where he was, he searched for the source of the energy wave, identified the direction, and walked slowly over there.
As he walked through a small hill under the sea, he was greeted by a huge submarine crater, and the source of the energy wave was in the center of the crater.
