"There was a time when someone tried to make a ......"

At this, the dark shadow paused, and the glittering eyes on his blurred face stared at Wayne, as if trying to pique his interest.

Wayne glanced at the dark shadow, and then stepped onto the drawbridge, not interested in satisfying a stranger's bad taste.

However, just now he really thought that these floating islands in front of him really existed, just like the rune patterns found on the tower before.

If such a group of floating islands really exists in reality, he will definitely find an opportunity to take a look at it in the future.

"Huh? Aren't you curious? The black shadow was stunned and asked subconsciously.

"Curious, but ......" Wayne didn't look back, and said lightly: "I doubt the authenticity of what you said!" ”

Seeing him disappear on the other side of the drawbridge, the black shadow almost choked back his internal injuries in his heart, "Are the young people of today so impatient?" It's boring, it's boring......"

Wayne, on the other side, left the weirdo behind after setting foot on the first floating island.

There isn't much wreckage left on this floating island, which is only the size of four football fields, and the floor is paved with a layer of bluestone slabs, and some grooves that look like drainage run straight through the top, bottom, left and right.

In the middle of the island there is a circular pattern, which looks like a six-pointed star map, but at the nodes, there are not lines connected, but small pits, each with a humanoid statue.

In order, a warrior or knight in elaborate armor, a female wizard with a staff, a mechanical modder with a thick appearance, and a man in leather armor......

Well? Long ears? Elf?

Wayne squatted down to observe carefully for a while, with long ears and a handsome appearance, very much like the fantasy race elves he had seen in his previous life.

Is there still such a race in this world?

Finally, there are two women in cool short skirts with bows and arrows in their hands......

From the way they dressed, there was no difference between them and people in the real world, and there were no signs of identity.

Wayne looked around for a while, and when he saw that he didn't find anything, he got up and looked around, walking towards a floating island on the left.

There was one of the floating islands that was made entirely of machinery, and there were many dark shadows lingering on it, as if they were also observing the structure of the floating island.

“…… Here turned out to be a reflux structure, the rune pattern hides the edge of the morning gear, it is incomprehensible, how is it possible? ”

"The gears will definitely rotate, which means that those lines will change with them, if the other gears also rotate with them, then how can this rune circle work?"

"Or is it triggered?"

"Trigger?"

"When the gears rotate together to a certain point, the circle takes effect in an instant, and then dissipates in an instant...... Is it possible?! ”

Wayne surveyed the setup of the mechanical floating island as he listened to the discussion of the shadows around him.

From the vague outlines of these black shadows, it is not difficult to see that most of them are mechanical modifiers, even if there are no traces of transformation on their bodies, they also wear some mechanical weapons or armor.

Most of the origin power is above fifty? According to the wizard level, it is at least the level of intermediate wizards.

A wizard of the mechanical school?

Wayne glanced around, and the words of the strange man before came to his heart, the people who tried to create the floating island couldn't be the wizards of the mechanical school, right?

"Damn, this is definitely something the Nightmare Sect deliberately made to mislead people!"

"I feel that way when you say that......"

"But I've already finished a lesson...... Well? There are other people here, and everyone will record what they have observed and summarize them to me later. ”

Wayne saw the man with signs of mechanical transformation all over his body looking at him, and walked to the other side quietly.

Fortunately, there is no battle in the Nightmare World, otherwise someone would have jumped out and shouted at him at this time: This place has been chartered by the Mechanics School or something......

However, he didn't expect that these people were really studying the mechanical structure and runes of this floating island.

They, well, the wizards of the mechanical school aren't really going to make a replica, are they?

With that in mind, Wayne walked to what looked like a fortress in the high walls of the city-state—a hole in the circular vault, hundreds of pipes exposed, broken gears and iron sheets scattered all over the place.

He looked down at the rusty parts, and as the mechanical wizards outside had said, there was a circle of Saar metal coating engraved with rune patterns on the outer edge of the gear.

How is this done?

When the gears turn, trigger the rune circle?

If there is only one place where two gears are attached and rotated, it can form a complete channel, but this is only a point of passage, and it needs to be connected with other lines.

Is it to use the place where the gear is in contact as the node, and the place where it is not in contact as the texture - along the outer ring of the gear to form a pattern composed of semicircular gears?

Then there is no straight line, right?

Wayne frowned, this did not match the rune circle patterns he had touched, according to his cognition, the lines of all runes were fixed and symmetrical.

And these gears ......

As he fell into deep thought, a piece of knowledge came to mind about the rune primer.

[The vortex structure is a knowledge system that can only be accessed by expert runes.] Compared with the runic structure of one board and one eye, the vortex structure can meet the complex structure, and is one of the most important branches of runic literature. 】

Eddy current structure...... Expert ......

It turned out to be a rune knowledge that only experts could access...... Well?

Wayne was stunned, that is to say, the knowledge involved on this floating island is true?

So - the floating island is also real?!

He hurriedly took a closer look at the mechanical fortress, where the incisions were regular. It was as if it had been pierced by something half a meter in diameter, and the wall inside turned outward, similar to the marks left by bullet penetration.

And in a few windows, there are also the remains of some mechanical cannons, only the base is intact, and the others are broken into small pieces scattered in various corners.

Wayne looked up again to confirm that there was a hole, five mechanical cannons in different positions......

The more he thought about it, the more it felt like a tentacle poking in from the outside, and then flexibly sweeping the mechanical cannon into a pile of parts?

Antenna?

With this question in mind, Wayne turned and walked out of the fortress and walked around the entire mechanical floating island.

Eventually, his suspicions were confirmed - there was indeed a battle, no, a war to be exact, and the enemy was attacking the batteries on the floating island at the same time.

Because, except for those mechanical cannons, there is hardly any damage to the other mechanical devices, and there are no traces of battle......

"Is it true that the attack falls, clears the target, and then disappears directly?"

Wayne thought thoughtfully, maybe there was only one enemy, an enemy with hundreds of tentacles, and instantly made this mechanical floating island ineffective.

What kind of body shape does that have to be?

At least as big as this floating island with a diameter of one kilometer, right?

So a huge monster......

Well, it's not beyond comprehension......

Wayne suddenly remembered that he had seen the deep-sea monster Rasim before, and that it was the size of a small island in the sea, much larger than the mechanical floating island under his feet.

"Gone, Rachel Ford."

"It's back ......"

Well?

Going?

It didn't take long for the shadows of the mechanical schools to disappear one by one.

Wayne looked up at the other floating islands, calculated the time, and left the Nightmare World with him.

"Nightmare World ......"

Perhaps, it is time to find someone from the Nightmare Sect to find out about the Nightmare World.

From the Initial Zone, with its countless eerie graves, to the towering towers in the Midway, to the floating islands in the Captain's Zone.

I couldn't see anything from the tower, but the traces of the wreckage left on the floating island just now were already very obvious.

"If it's true as the weirdo said, the Nightmare World is a real one......"

That shows that the world has experienced a terrible war.

I just don't know, what era it is......

Wayne sat at the workbench and let out a long breath, the epic war that disappeared into the long river of history...... Sounds interesting.

However, he was more interested in those runic powers.

Judging from the current situation, the wizards of the Mechanics School still don't know how to make the mechanical floating island......

"Expert Runic ......"

Wayne frowned, it was too far away.

And even if he had knowledge of the structure of eddy currents, he wouldn't necessarily be able to make a floating island.

It should be said that he didn't even have the idea of trying...... How much money do you have to have to get a mechanical fortress like that?

Thinking of this, Wayne put ten vials of anti-alien potion into the Nightmare Worm's mouth, and completed the deal with Franta first.

It wasn't long before there was a slight noise in the box.

Immediately afterward, he took out the materials from it to make the anti-anti-agent, and began to make the second batch of anti-anti-potion.

A total of forty-five anti-alien potion materials, it took him a full eight hours to complete.

Even with his mental strength, he felt a little tired from making potions for eight hours without stopping. During this period, just trying to deal with the nuances of material fusion took him a lot of energy.

Wayne looked at the blood-colored anti-exotic potion on the workbench and let out a long sigh, it's not for nothing that the perfect-grade potion is so difficult to achieve......

"Thirty bottles of Perfect, fifteen bottles of Fine, worth three thousand seven hundred and fifty gold pounds...... It's not that hard to make money, it's just that the Black Pearl is really not a thing! ”

Wayne took out his pocket watch and looked at the time, and saw that it was almost night, and he didn't know what was going on outside.

With that in mind, he put away the potions, put the bullets they had made into the mechanical door, and then opened the door to the studio, looking at the people outside.

“…… Riecy, death. ”

"Tina, Reese."

"Tina doesn't have Reesi," Sava corrected the white-haired girl's Gonzalez with an eerie click in her voice.

"Tina, no Rissie."

"Hmm."

Next to him, Zero held the Jerry Codex motionless, the gears on his eyes spinning rapidly, as if recording the contents.

"Is this me, Iron Furyman...... Zero ...... Feel like the Rage sounds more domineering? Sister Sava, what do you think? ”

"Listen to your father's ......"

Wayne swept around, but didn't see Clea's figure, and couldn't help but have a bad premonition in his heart.

The woman...... No way?

He hurriedly took out the golden key, left the Clown Theater, and returned to the bedroom of the Ronan, and his spiritual perception instantly covered the entire steamship.

“…… It's not that I don't want to obey your orders, but this is in conflict with the captain's orders, and I will see if you can consult him before ......"

"Please? I am the first mate of this ship, you are the second officer, and when the captain is away, of course, it is up to us to decide. Besides, it's just going over there to catch a fish, and it can be our dinner, isn't it? ”

"Over there...... It's off course......"

Claire crossed her arms, glanced at him, and said coldly, "Then you just watch them hang all the time......

Wayne clenched his fist, Claire......

He had noticed the pirates hanging upside down with their feet tied under the watchtower.

"First mate Claire, if the captain blames you like this......" Ronan cried with a sad face.

"I've got it!"

"Top? How are you going to hold it? ”

"Of course it'......"

Claire heard the voice, turned around and looked, subconsciously wanted to run, just took a few steps and retreated, raised her head and said, "Of course, I went to find the captain and apologize~"

"Really?"

Wayne stared into Marco's handsome eyes, raised a finger and pointed to the top of his head, "And what about them?" ”

"They ......" Claire's newly erected chest retracted, biting her lip and giving him a white look, "They covet other people's beauty and say some dirty words~"

"Woo, no, we didn't say it, Captain!"

"There really is no ......"

"Huh?"

The pirate who was hanging under the watchtower saw Claire's glances, and his voice was stunned, and he forced out a smile that was more ugly than crying, "The first mate is right, we offended her......"

"Yes, yes, we deserve to be punished, and it has nothing to do with the first mate......"

Claire turned her head and looked at Wayne pitifully, look~

"Is that so?" Wayne took out his revolver, clicked on it, and asked calmly, "I think that on this ship, someone dares to offend the first mate, and it is not enough to hang it...... You say, right? ”

Hiss –

Seeing him pull out his gun, all the pirates were instantly silenced, they were affected by fraud and recognized Wayne's identity as captain, but it didn't mean that they forgot what they saw that day.

The bullet that drew a strange arc was still in their minds.

"No, no, no, no, captain, we didn't offend the first mate......"

"It was me who was wrong!"

Without waiting for the pirates to speak, Claire honestly admitted her mistake and walked up to Wayne, took his hand, and pointed the gun at her chest......

"Shoot......"

Wayne stared into her eyes, not looking down at all, "Are you sure?" ”

"I do...... Up in the air! As soon as she said two words, Claire saw Wayne's eyes turn cold, and hurriedly raised her hands and said, "I know it's wrong, I promise there won't be a next time!" ”

Bang, bang......

Several gunshots rang out suddenly.

The surrounding pirates, including Ronan, all subconsciously lowered their heads.

Redhead Captain ...... So ruthless?

Kill all the first mates?!

Puff, puff...... The sound of a series of heavy objects slamming on the deck rang out.

"Much, thank you, Captain."

The hanging pirates looked at Wayne with gratitude in their eyes, and if it weren't for the pain, they would have thought they were going to die this time.

"You're scaring me~Captain Marko~" Clea's voice rang out immediately afterward.

She could see clearly just now that the muzzle of the gun was pointed at her chest as Wayne fired. But as a result, not a single bullet fell on her, but pierced the ropes that hung the pirates......

Extraordinary abilities without any supernatural powers?

Or is it pure gunmanship?

It's terrifying!

"There's no next time." Wayne put away his revolver and turned to walk towards the cockpit.

"Roger, Captain!" Claire made a serious gesture with a common pirate salute, and turned her head to glance at Ronan, "Second Triangle Eye, why don't you hurry up?" ”

"Yes, I'll go over it." Ronan wiped the sweat on his face with his sleeve, fortunately the first mate is fine, otherwise the people on this ship will not survive tonight......

Thinking of this, he hurriedly trotted to follow the cockpit, well, it was right to follow the captain.

The other pirates also gave Claire a frightened look, and then dispersed, preparing for the night.

"Tsk, he really ......"

Claire thought of Wayne's eyes just now, her eyes were full of charm, obviously she was just an ordinary wizard apprentice half a month ago......

What a terrible talent, or is it because of that little white hair?

However, no matter what the reason, the days to come can only stay on the ship honestly, woo woo......

Villain~

And Wayne, who was in the cockpit, knew that Claire was not angry because of this, and if she was really angry, she would have to turn her face on the spot with her temperament.

After this period of getting along, he knew very well that he had to be stronger against this woman who was not very smart.

Otherwise, there will be no pirates on the ship, and they will all have to become puppets.

"That's how you sailed?"

Ronan pointed to the newly marked location on the chart, "Due to the storm in the morning, the speed was much slower, but fortunately there was no loss." ”

Wayne nodded, "It's going to be night soon, can you sail at night?" ”

"This ......," Ronan hesitated, "it can be, but the sound is still bright, and it will attract the distortions around it." ”

"Huh? So what did you all do the night before? ”

"Raise the sails and try not to deflect the course...... Float. ”

Wayne thought to himself, "Then let's do what we did before." ”

He didn't want to face another attack by those fish last night......

"Understood, I'll go and prepare."

"Wait!"

Wayne ignored Ronan's puzzled look, but pointed to the position in front of him, and frowned, "Is that ship coming at us?" ”

Ronan looked in the direction he was pointing, his face changing slightly, "It's a ship under the Black Pearl!" ”

Black Pearl ......

PS: There will be a change in the evening.

Thank you for the new cow, Lori loves fish, and the three big guys who watch the starry night 12, thank you very much!
