Ethan’s Fantasy Drift

Chapter 67



Chapter 67 Watch carefully

The Goddess of Aurora moved slowly around the island. Out of caution, Ethan controlled the distance between the ship and the island, maintaining it to the extent that he could observe the general situation of the island through a telescope.

“The speed of that ship has dropped a bit.”

The galleon, which is full of female adventurers, is also doing a similar move. Before the big ship was in front and Ethan was behind, the two ships kept a fixed distance and sailed around the island.

did not choose the other direction, because it would make the two groups directly collide, avoiding a sudden conflict, and it is better to maintain a safe distance.

But this time, Ethan didn’t let his speed drop to the same level as his speed, but shifted the course slightly inward.

“A little bit closer to the island.”

He wants to control the Aurora Aurora to circle the island clockwise, each time he will be a little closer, a little bit to test this strange island.

This is a waste of time. The advantage is that if an abnormal condition is found, with the speed and sensitivity of the Aurora, plus the direction of the ship, you can directly lift the speed without much adjustment, and then directly leave the danger zone.

It is better to be cautious than anything in the unknown.

The Goddess of Dawn, just like that little by little, got close to the big ship, and then slowly overtook, from the side that had been hanging far behind, turning to the front runner.

Ethan was even able to see everything on the deck of the ship without the help of foreign objects, including the vigilant gaze of the female adventurers.

“They know who we are.”

The Aurora passed by the big ship in this way. After slowly pulling away a little distance, Ethan noticed that the ship had increased its speed slightly, maintaining a fixed distance from the Aurora, and started Approaching the island, he obviously had the same idea as Ethan.

They are very smart to let Ethan be the Pathfinder, and they have more reaction time after them-excluding personal emotional factors, this choice is very correct. The large sailing warship approaching the Galen-type sailing ship cannot make such sensitive maneuvers at all. If something happens, no matter how fast it reacts, it will be more troublesome and slower than the Aurora to make de-turning and acceleration actions .

In the same dangerous situation, the Aurora may be able to escape smoothly, but the big ship may not necessarily be.

In addition, Ethan found that the group of female crew members were very wary of themselves, given that the displacement and firepower of the ship were fully dominant, and they were also in the upper hand in terms of numbers, they were so cautious that they could only prove that they knew their identity , Know who you are, and have enough understanding of your own strength.

“Yes, but they deliberately gave us the position of the leader, do you know something about this weird island?”

“Perhaps.”

Ethan’s time at sea is still too short. Although he borrowed the adventurer’s guild’s library to make up for it, there are still many things in this sea area that will not be recorded in the book, only through the adventurers. Oral or personal experience can be understood.

That ship group, which is full of women, can get such a big ship in this sea area. There is no doubt about the strength. Then it indirectly proves that they have spent a considerable amount of time in this sea. They must have a peaceful sea. Enough understanding.

is like this kind of weird island, even if they haven’t encountered it personally, they may have heard of it from other adventurers.

Even if it is just a rumor, it is much better than Ethan who knows nothing.

Continuing to sail slowly, they have already circled the island three times. As the distance approaches, the strange fluctuations become more and more obvious, making Ethan, a magician who is more sensitive to energy, aware of more things. .

“This energy is full of death and corruption.”

Through the telescope, Ethan can see more clearly. There is really no life on this island, but it is not the kind of situation that just emerged from the sea.

The island is full of mud and stones, but the mud and the reality all show a black color, which is completely opposite to that full of vitality on other islands.

“Will there be such an island in the calm sea?”

The world is truly extraordinary. Arthur now understands the meaning of this sentence personally. Such an island seems to be a place where evil villains can be bred in legends.

Ethan did not answer, but turned his head and looked in the other direction.

Before, he noticed a ship emerging from the sea level in the distance. At first it was too far away and he didn’t pay attention. When he found that the ship was coming straight to the island, he suddenly wanted to see this new arrival. What will happen.

“Could it be the one that left before?” Arthur suspected that it was the group of people who had left before. Perhaps he was unwilling to give up an island like this, and wanted to avoid the big ship and secretly land on the island to replenish some supplies.

It is not easy to find an island in the calm sea. Naturally, it is difficult to replenish the missing materials, and the possibility of them doing so cannot be ruled out.

“No, the layout of the sails is different.”

Arthur didn’t use a telescope, and he could barely see that it was a clipper of the same style as the Aurora, but Ethan could see it more clearly. Although it was mainly spinnaker, the arrangement of the secondary sails was different. It is different. While pursuing speed, it also emphasizes stability, which is different from the previous ship that fully emphasized speed.

In comparison, the sailing bureau of this new ship is closer to the Aurora, both of which are based on speed while ensuring a certain degree of stability.

It’s just that Ethan did this because his driving level is not high enough. If he pursues the extreme speed too much, he may turn the boat over…

“Huh? The ship did not slow down.”

The distance is getting closer. Ethan originally thought that the group of people who came this time would slow down first, like the big ship behind and himself, and then carefully observe the situation around the island.

Unexpectedly, the ship rushed straight to the island, and then rushed sideways from the front of Ethan’s Aurora. After that, it slowed down because of the need to dock, and finally anchored next to the island-around the island. There are several deep-water harbors suitable for berthing. Ethan has seen several before. If he finally wants to land on the island, not only can his own ship be directly docked on the side of the island, even if the big ship behind has a suitable berthing position.

This kind of situation is very rare, as if it was specially designed to stop the ship for adventurers. This strange feeling made Ethan’s body chill uncontrollably, and his fear of the island increased a bit.

“Someone has found the way for us.”

Ethan and Arthur stopped the ship together, and then dropped the anchor and stopped at a short distance. Ethan stood on the stern, holding a binoculars and watching the ship steadily stop. By the side of the island, several people took their weapons and some tools and got off the boat and headed for the depths of the island.

Because there are no plants on the island, and there are no huge rocks or the like blocking the line of sight, Ethan can clearly see the actions of these people.

I don’t know if it was intentional. The group of people didn’t stay on the shore and continued to march toward the depths of the island. Then, after turning around for a while, they gradually disappeared from sight.

“They seem to bring some mining tools?”

Arthur saw that someone had brought a pickaxe. Among the resources collected on the island, only the ore needed this thing.

“Well, maybe this island without any plants is an island rich in minerals?”

This is also an explanation. Many ores are inherently toxic, which is not conducive to the growth of plants. If the entire island is rich in ores, it can be said that there are no plants.

“Magic stone?”

Invariably, both Ethan and Arthur thought of the most characteristic items in this world.

“It’s just this deadly fluctuation… Is there a magic stone containing the power of the necromancer on this island?”

Guessing is always guessing. If you want to prove it, you still need to go to the island to personally investigate to know. Ethan and Arthur observed for a while, the island still looks like that, but as time goes by, the group of people who entered the island no longer It didn’t show up either.

“Wait… Why do I think that the ship looks a bit wrong? Is it my illusion?”

I thought this island might be just a little weird but there is no danger. When Ethan was struggling whether to land, he suddenly felt something was wrong. After watching for a long time, I finally realized that it was the ship docked on the shore. There seems to be a slight change in the boat on the side.

Ethan looked through the binoculars again. After watching for a long time, he couldn’t find exactly where the changes had occurred, including Arthur on the side, who also held the binoculars and played ‘finding the difference’ with Ethan.

The two of them stared for a long time, and finally found an abnormality.

“It seems…that ship has become a bit old?” Arthur was still unsure after watching for a long time. A ship sailing on the sea would definitely have various damages. Maybe what I saw was an illusion?

It was Ethan finally made a positive judgment: “No, it is indeed getting old. Pay attention to the sails. There is a trace of dilapidation. I have specially observed their sails before, although there were some old ones. There was no breakage or damage.”

Arthur took a closer look again and affirmed Ethan’s words.

“How is this going?”

“It should be that weird wave… that wave is undoubtedly a powerful negative energy, and it is this kind of energy that has caused the strange situation on this island, and at the same time it will affect everyone who is close to them or Things.”

This is not an incomprehensible existence. Ethan knew that many negative energies have similar effects, such as the famous evil energy.

Ethan began to consider whether to leave, and rushing to board the island seemed too risky.

At this time, he noticed the big boat behind that was also parked on the sea to observe the situation, put down a small boat and rowed towards Ethan and the others.
