He couldn't help but be shocked by this as well, and the degree of shock was even greater than Lin Yi's.
"What's going on? Could it be a ready-made one? " The middle-aged man was both surprised and suspicious. His name was Wang Baitiao, and he used to be one of the most famous pirates in the Cold Magic Sea. However, he was later subdued by Boundless Sea and became an escort for the Four Seas Escort Agency.
Putting everything else aside, in terms of familiarity with the Dark Cold Sea Region, there was absolutely no one in this world who could compare to him, Wang Baitiao. After all, he was born and raised here. Whether it was as a pirate or as an armed escort, he had always been on the sea. He was definitely a local tyrant.
Especially this stretch of the sea route. For this competition, he had specially spent two months measuring it bit by bit before finally finding the safest route to and fro. Apart from himself, no one else in the world knew about it!
As a result, Wang Baitiao was completely confident in this competition. All of the other escort agencies had been wiped out. Only the Four Seas Escort Agency's Boat Number One had successfully returned. This was Boundless Sea's request.
Everything had been going smoothly. The boats that should have capsized had pretty much all capsized. But Wang Baitiao never would have thought that someone would suddenly appear at this time!
Wang Baitiao didn't believe that this guy had relied on his own strength to catch up. No matter how good his sailing skills were, it was impossible for him to do this. The only explanation was that this guy had been picking up ready-made goods along the way. That was the only plausible explanation.
"How can I do this? If I let this guy follow us back unscathed, wouldn't Chief Escort Hai skin me alive? "Wang Baitiao broke out in cold sweat from fright.
Don't look at how Boundless Sea was an escort agency. When he did things, he was much more ruthless than any pirate. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been subdued so easily. Even if Wang Baitiao had ten guts, he wouldn't dare go back and face Boundless Sea's wrath.
Although he had made up his mind to get rid of the ship behind him, Wang Baitiao did not dare to act rashly before he understood the situation. In this place, one did not necessarily have to fight to the death to kill. This sea route was a natural death trap. As long as one made good use of it, let alone killing a single person, He would kill ten thousand people without hesitation.
The two ships, one in front and one behind, maintained a distance that was neither too far nor too close. After a while, the first ship in front suddenly changed its course and moved in a large zigzag pattern. It wasn't that it did this on purpose, but that there were dense reefs in front of it, and if it didn't move like this, it would be impossible to pass.
Meanwhile. Wang Baitiao was also using this opportunity to observe the movements of the ship behind him. It would be best if they couldn't keep up, or they would definitely die on this reef. If they caught up, it would prove that the ship behind them was indeed picking up a ready-made catch, and it had already locked onto them.
Although he didn't know what kind of ultimate technique the other party had to be able to stare at him in the sea mist that blocked the divine sense of a cultivator, he didn't know what it was. But the other party did it!
A moment later, a cold light flashed in Wang Baitiao's eyes. That ship actually followed them. This guy was indeed a ready-made follower!
From start to finish, Wang Baitiao had never considered the possibility that they were sailing with their own strength, because in everyone's knowledge, such a possibility didn't exist. There were no exceptions.
Little did they know that there were some things in the world that ordinary people couldn't imagine.
"This guy's technique isn't bad." Wang Baitiao curled his lips and coldly snorted. If they were in an ordinary sea region, there wouldn't be any difficulty to speak of. But under the interference of this thick sea mist, walking in such a large zigzag pattern and not being thrown off was a test of skill. If one wasn't experienced enough, they wouldn't be able to do this.
From the looks of it, it would be very difficult for Wang Baitiao to rely on speed to throw off the ship behind him. Even if he knew the safe route, he didn't dare to increase his speed. There were too many dangers in this place, and the slightest accident could lead to the destruction of the ship and the death of everyone. No one dared to take such a risk.
But then Wang Baitiao's lips curled into a sinister smile. Since you're determined to pick up a ready-made catch, then you'd better follow me closely. Just in time for this daddy to add some spice to your plan!
One in front, one behind, the two ships broke through the waves. In the control cabin of the number five ship, Lin Yi was growing more and more bewildered. He had been able to travel safely all this way thanks to the warning of his jade pendant, but what was the situation with the ship in front of him? It couldn't be that the other party also had a jade pendant, could it?
But according to Lin Yi's observation, he found that the route chosen by the ship in front of him, especially when it came to the various turns, was far smoother than his.
He himself could only change direction after receiving the warning of the jade pendant. Many times, if he failed to adjust at the first time, he would have to adjust again, causing the route to be very twisted and stiff. But the ship in front of him was different. Every time, it accurately turned into a turn ahead of time, as if it knew the safe route. It was smooth and natural.
"It seems that this South Continent Escort Agency Grand Gathering, which claims to be absolutely fair, can't avoid shady tricks." Lin Yi smiled mockingly. He wouldn't believe it if someone told him that the ship in front of him hadn't prepared meticulously beforehand. Even if they had a golden finger, it wouldn't be possible for them to do it so naturally.
But in this way, following behind the ship saved Lin Yi a lot of trouble. At least when he received the warning of the jade pendant, he wouldn't be as flustered as before. As long as he listened to the changes in the sound of the water ahead, he could prepare in advance, which made it much easier.
From the beginning to the end, Lin Yi didn't think about overtaking the ship in front of him. First, it was not necessary. After all, this round of competition was not based on ranking. As long as he could successfully return to the sea within a certain time, he would be able to get the corresponding points. It wasn't completely a life-and-death competition between them.
Second, this sea route was too dangerous. Even if Lin Yi had the warning of the jade pendant and was in an invincible position, he didn't dare to advance rashly, because doing so would be equivalent to courting death.
To be honest, his sailing level was probably not even at the beginner level. It was limited to controlling the ship, and he wasn't even fully proficient in it. If he really competed with those real sailing experts, it was very likely that he would make mistakes in his haste. When that time came, even the warning of the jade pendant wouldn't be able to save him.
Lin Yi also knew this, so he wouldn't do stupid things. The only thing he had to do now was to steadily reach the necessary point and return. All other distracting thoughts were fleeting.
Suddenly, the frequent warning of the jade pendant sounded again. Lin Yi listened to the sound of the ship in front of him and found that it was turning sharply to the right! (What a great event!
