Nome sentinels looking out from the high watchtower of the crescent castle.

Like a lonely sentinel, the gray-white castle stands on a knife-cut mountain wall, facing the lonely shore. The beach is grayish-white, and the rocks that have been smoothed by the sea are covered with a layer of grayish-white ice, and when the tide rises, the cold sea will flood them, and then, leave another layer of grayish-white.

There are no bright plants in sight on the mountain, and the mountain wall is like a, ready to withstand the impact of the waves. The sentinels watched as the waves shattered by the reef and the water splashed like frost.

Most of the Nome people who live in Crescent are fishermen, and the fish they catch are transported to other Nome settlements by rail cars in the underground tunnels of Guò. The Nome are a small race, and when it is not convenient to fish, they will stay in underground tunnels, drink and chat, and sleep. There are always complex tunnels under the castles of the Nome, and they call these tunnels "snake caves" because these tunnels are twisted and curved, and those who do not know the tunnels will definitely get lost in the tunnels.

They don't like to go to the castle. The sea breeze would tear off their hats, and the waves would roll like ferocious monsters to swallow them little creatures into their stomachs. The sentinel, wrapped in a thick coat of gray and white leather, looked out over the dreary and monotonous sea. He couldn't figure out what kind of scenery was there here that deserved to be so fascinated by those two humans.

Ivan Yafel also stood on the watchtower facing the sea, his gray-white fur cloak fluttering in the wind. There was nothing at sea, not a single fishing boat went out to sea, and there was no sign of it on the coast.

Standing here, you can't see the "islands of pirates and ghosts", which are still some distance from the crescent bay on the map. The four hunters, Hunter, Bob, Shrek, and Stone, had already returned to the kingdom of Aura with his letter, and were probably on their way at this time. He knew that he had arrived at the castle by the sea on the Nome underground railcar, not to see the scenery of the icy bay, but to inquire about the news of the Seventh Demon General, Sloth.

Ice Witch Sloth is hiding on those islands, and that's just a guess on his part. In his letter, he told the Inquisitor Caterina Sellin about his speculation, hoping that Lord Sellin would tell Sù Laxis Flotica, the Holy Magister of Crystals. With Ivan and Aisha's strength, even if he knows where Sloth is, it's useless, although he is very unwilling, but this is an indisputable fact.

The fishermen of Nome knew that human fishermen were here, but they never sailed their boats out to sea. When it comes to the "islands of pirates and ghosts", the fishermen are all cautious and say categorically that they must not go there. Legend has it that the sea was infested with ghosts, and all the ships that went there disappeared without a trace, and it is said that this terrifying legend has been passed down for thousands of years among the Nomes, and almost all Nome believe in it.

"So you're here!"

There was a sound of swift footsteps on the stairs, and the little wolf, a girl in a wolfskin hat, ran up with a snort, "Asha is there too, what are you doing here, what do you see?"

"We're just going to see. At the sight of the wolf's elated appearance, Essor Trande, another young girl who was also standing on the watchtower, pursed her mouth. Aisha simply tied her long orange hair so that it wouldn't be blown everywhere by the sea breeze. Perhaps not very accustomed to the climate here, her fresh and lovely face looked a little dull, and her cheeks were red from the cold.

The little wolf rushed over and grabbed her with one hand and Ivan with the other.

"Come on! I happened to run into a couple of pathfinders, and they have a very powerful boat!" said the little wolf's eyebrows. Little Wolf is the same age as Aisha and Ivan, but she grew up in the castle of the Nome tribe, and deals with wolves and beasts in the snowy mountains all day long, and she also has a wild temperament. The crescent moon castle was so cold in winter, but she was still wearing a white cotton coat with a white wolf tail wrapped around her waist, as if this outfit was her symbol.

"Boat?" Ivan didn't quite understand.

"Didn't you say it would be nice if we had a boat? Those fishermen won't lend us boats, and their boats won't work. I saw a great ship in the harbor, a sturdy iron ship, with a magic crystal device on it!" The little wolf laughed merrily, and dragged the two of them towards the staircase, where the Norm sentry was dumbfounded.

The wolf's strength was as great as that of a wild beast, and Ivan and Aisha had to do their best to keep up with her.

"Then will they take us out to sea?" Ivan couldn't help but be a little moved. Iron boats with magic drives should be much safer than fishing boats, even if they go near the island.

"When you say go to sea, you're going to the 'islands of pirates and ghosts.'" ”

Running down the dimly lit stairs, the little wolf spoke quickly, "I didn't tell them where we were going, they wouldn't take us there, so I asked them if the boat would be used recently, and they said no." They have recently planned to go in search of a new dragon's lair, and they don't plan to go to sea. ”

"Then, then you can borrow a boat"

Aisha struggled a little, not wanting to be dragged away by the little wolf. The little wolf let go of his hand and turned around. She skimmed lightly down the stairs, as if she were running on flat ground, running backwards without falling.

"You can't sail a boat, you're a magician!" she seemed surprised.

"What does the Wizard have to do with sailing?" Aisha frowned in confusion. A magician is a type of person who can use his magic power to drive the magic guide crystal, so as to use a special tool "magic magic secret weapon" that ordinary people can't master, what does this have to do with sailing a ship?

"Doesn't it matter, there are also processed magic crystals on the ship!" the little wolf's dark blue eyes lit up with curiosity, "Ivan is very good at using magic crystals!"

"I really don't know how to sail a boat......," Ivan replied wryly. He understood what the little wolf meant. Not long ago, he ignited the fire attribute magic crystal in the warehouse of Fort Selfindi, and almost died in the fire, but it also frightened the guards of Fort Selfendi, giving the Nome craftsmen who launched the raid an opportunity.

But that doesn't mean he can use all the magic devices! What's more, the battle consumed too much of his magic power, and he's still recovering! His magic magic secret weapon, the Sword of Illusory Light, is still in the hands of the Nome craftsman Lockvonde, and it hasn't been repaired yet! Even if the pathfinders that the little wolf said promised to take them out to sea, he can't go far away for the time being!

"Really, not?" the little wolf raised an eyebrow, "then forget it." ”

A little disappointed. Ivan thought. The little wolf was really eager to help him, and just because he had asked about the islands, she was very eager to bring him to the crescent castle and find a boat for him. Not only that, but during the battle of Fort Selfendi, the little wolf ran back to rescue him and his companions. Ivan is actually very grateful to the little wolf.

"It's okay, there will be a way. Aisha said, smiling softly as if to comfort Ivan and the little wolf. The little wolf nodded immediately.

"Escher, you want to go with me! Anyway, Lockevon hasn't returned your weapon to you, so we'll just need to figure out the ship in the next few days. The little wolf's smile was so simple and refreshing.

Ai Xia was stunned, what was the little wolf talking about just now?

"I'll take you to see the boat first!" the little wolf laughed without a hint of yin haze, she ran and jumped, stepping over the line between sunlight and yin shadow in the stairwell.

The little wolf is like the bright sun on this snowy mountain. Aisha looked at her in a daze, and a wave of loss welled up in her heart for no reason.
