The Base continued to sail forward at full speed.
However, it was at that moment that Felt Hat, who was supposed to be in the control room, appeared on the deck. He brought a message to Higan and Dongyang: the Devil Mist had appeared.
How did Felt Hat know? This was the Base after all, not the pitiful Harvest. The ship did not even have a super-advanced device known as the Heaven's Eye.
It was a joke to rely on the human eye to detect the situation at sea.
Tang Ling had spent quite a lot of money on the Base's modifications. He had almost emptied the Blood Scissors brothers' storage.
Therefore, even though the Heaven's Eye on the Base was not the best, it was still above average and could scan the sea within a hundred kilometers.
Therefore, when the Devil Mist appeared within the range, Felt Hat and Xiao Hua in the control room knew about it, and they had to report it to Higan and Dongyang.
"Let's go to the control room." Higan was very decisive at the moment. Since Tang Ling was not around, she had to carry out every single one of his orders.
**
"The Devil Mist has finally appeared." Liszt was in the control room of the Hero when he saw the image captured by the Heaven's Eye on the ship.
On the big screen, the mist was rumbling like a rising tide. As it rumbled, the mist gradually thickened and the sea that was shrouded by the mist seemed to be sealed off. Nothing else could be seen.
Not only that, but the fog was also spreading at a relatively fast speed. When its density reached a certain level, there would be new thin fog rushing towards the nearby areas, like a siege, occupying the surrounding sea.
A smile appeared on Liszt's face. It was rare for him to be in the mood to talk. He pointed at the sea map in the corner of the screen.
"Based on the pattern, the mist will start from this spot and spread all the way to Hao Hao Island, which is close to the Tommy Safety Line.
"Come to think of it, it's like there's a pair of invisible hands controlling everything." Liszt's face was a little flushed because of his excitement. He turned to Hank and said, "This world is quite magical, isn't it?"
"Yes." Hank looked at the slightly agitated Liszt in front of the screen. Although he looked calm, he thought of Andrew again.
A very, very long time ago, the young Andrew brought Hank into the Secondary Safety Zone of Safety Sector No. 17. There was a hill that was slightly taller than the other hills in the sector.
He would climb to the top of the mountain with Hank and look over Safety Sector No. 17 from there, overlooking everything below the mountain.
"The world is very big, and what we see is only a small corner of it. It's such a big world, there must be a lot of magical things … "Andrew always said that.
"How do you know that the world is big?" Back then, Hank's knowledge was limited. He thought there was only one Safety Sector No. 17 in the world and the people in the sector were everyone.
"I read it in a book! One day, we'll go far, far away, and you'll know what I said is true … "Andrew would gesture with his hands and emphasize the word" we ". He would smile at Hank as well.
No matter how Henk thought about it, he could remember the pronunciation of every word Andrew had said.
However, Andrew would remain in Safety Sector No. 17 forever while Tang Ling would travel to a place far, far away from the rest of the world.
"I have a burning curiosity. I want to know all the magical things in the world. That's why I'll have adventures my whole life. Hank, you'll always be my partner, right? "Liszt sounded even more excited.
Hank, on the other hand, had yet to come back to his senses.
"Hank?" Liszt raised a dissatisfied brow.
"Hmm, yes." Hank replied to Liszt right away. He looked calm and no one could tell what was on his mind.
"Why did you take so long to reply?" Liszt was still a little dissatisfied and looked a little resentful. It might be the only childish side of a teenager that he would only show in front of Hank.
"No, I'm just afraid that I can't catch up to you and become your partner," Hank said softly.
"That won't happen. There's nothing you can't do by my side." Liszt interrupted Hank and looked at the surging mist on the screen. "Now, let's move on.
Based on the speed and scale of the Devil Mist, the Death Mist Zone should be formed by now.
Before it reaches its peak, we'll be the first to go in. The possibility of getting the Stamen Seven Lotus will increase a lot.
This time, I won't let Tang Ling … "Liszt's tone changed as he said that.
His return to the world this time was filled with ambition, but it was also filled with some sort of pressure that he couldn't tell anyone.
He wanted to make a name for himself in the resource season, but the funny thing was that the resource season was ruined because of his sudden action. He killed Omir out of impulse and everything went out of Liszt's control.
The competition between him and Tang Ling did not happen, and all the resources in the resource season somehow broke the usual pattern, which was out of Liszt's expectation.
Therefore, everything became dull and he was like a supporting character without a sense of presence. Like everyone else, he was lost and lost in the resource season.
Then, the fugitive, Tang Ling, appeared again.
Liszt did not want to think about it anymore. He slowly clenched his fists. He could not face the fear in his heart. He felt like he had become Tang Ling's supporting character.
However, he could not bear the price of being a supporting character.
Only the Stamen Nine Lotus could help him turn the tables.
Liszt was thinking about everything in his mind, but at that moment, the ship received a call.
"I can't find the source, but it's Tang Ling calling," the crew in the control room reported to Liszt in time.
"Tang Ling? What is he trying to do? " Liszt's face turned gloomy, but because of the contract issue with the Starlight Nether Fish, he could not reject Tang Ling's call.
"Answer it." Liszt pulled a chair over and sat down.
Soon enough, a message appeared on the incoming signal.
"I don't think you guys have forgotten all the promises you've made to my safety. Now, I need you guys. Please come to the XX coordinates. I think we need to meet and have a talk. "
The content of the message was simple, but Liszt frowned. His eyes were obviously filled with anger.
He did not seem to notice that Tang Ling had cast a huge shadow over him. His actions were no longer as calm as before. Instead, he became a little impatient.
"Captain, are we going into the Death Mist Zone or …?" The crew could not make a decision, so he turned to Liszt and asked.
Damn it, Tang Ling! Is he purposely delaying my time?! Liszt's heart was filled with malicious thoughts, but he still squeezed a few words out of his clenched teeth. "Just go to the coordinates that Tang Ling gave us."
If it was just a promise, Liszt would not mind breaking it. However, Liszt could not accept the tiger shark as a guarantor and the agreement that was transmitted into his superbrain.
He had to fulfill his duty.
**
In fact, it was not just Liszt.
All the captains received the same message. The trap that Tang Ling used the Starlight Nether Fish to set up for the teenagers finally paid off.
The news that the Fog of Death had formed was undoubtedly known by everyone. However, no matter who it was, no matter how much they wanted to go to the Death Mist Zone, they had to pinch their noses and rush to the coordinates that Tang Ling gave them.
It was a price that even Liszt could not afford, so how many other young warriors could?
Most of the captains were reluctant to accept Tang Ling's sudden message. They had been unable to find resources for a long time and had the power but nowhere to use it. The arrogant young warriors were driven mad by the frustration.
What they desired was not something that they could get by signing an agreement. In their hearts, they wanted to get rich resources through their own adventures.
The formation of the Death Mist Zone was undoubtedly an opportunity. Moreover, the legendary tri-colored mutated sea orb would appear in the Death Mist Zone.
However, unlike most of the young warriors who were reluctant to accept the message, Lancaster did not feel reluctant to accept the message from Tang Ling.
He had absolute wisdom and would never look at things from the perspective of the masses.
The resource season this year was already very unusual. Was it really a good thing to enter the Death Mist Zone in such a hurry? How much reference was there in the past? Moreover, the Death Mist Zone in the past was already this dangerous.
Lancaster was definitely one of the rare few who was not in a hurry to enter the Death Mist Zone.
On top of that, Tang Ling … was a very capable person. Did he really need everyone's protection? Some of them might not only fail to protect Tang Ling, but they might even become his burden.
Sharing the Nether Fish with them in the form of an agreement was obviously a gift in disguise. Tang Ling's actions were worth ruminating over.
With such thoughts in mind, Lancaster was looking forward to meeting Tang Ling and having a talk with him.
Originally, the coordinates chosen by the Harvest were those that were closer to the route of all the youths' ships.
Therefore, less than two hours after Tang Ling's message was sent out, other ships had already gathered at the coordinates.
The Harvest was already waiting for them.
Even the ships that followed the Harvest had gathered at the coordinates! After all, the hunt from the Poseidon family had ended and the Harvest was granted the right to sail again, so the ships that followed the Harvest were freed.
However, no one saw Tang Ling. Even the Harvest was quiet. There was not a single person on the deck.
Facing such a situation, everyone could only wait.
The Devil Mist was still spreading rapidly. According to the latest news from the Heaven's Eye, the Death Mist Zone had officially formed a small area.
With the current speed of the Devil Mist, the coordinates would be covered by the Death Mist Zone in around three hours.
Given the circumstances, it would not be long before the Death Mist Zone arrived. Everyone shared the same thought. At the same time, Liszt's Hero and Lancaster's ship also arrived at the coordinates.
Following the arrival of the two of them, almost all the young warriors' ships had gathered at the coordinates.
Under such circumstances, the Harvest finally made a move. A small escape boat was rowed out from the fleet behind the Harvest.
The entire hull of the escape boat was covered with a black cloth, making it impossible to see the situation inside the boat. They could only see that the person rowing the boat was someone they had no impression of. He should be a genius youth who came from the grassroots.
The boat was anchored in the middle of the fleet. The young man who rowed the boat picked up a megaphone and shouted, "All the captains, gather here. The important meeting will be held on this boat."
"Hmph!" Some of the young warriors grunted in dissatisfaction. What the hell is this? His tone sounded like he was ordering all the young warriors around. Did Tang Ling really think that he was the leader of all the young geniuses just because of an agreement?
So what if they were dissatisfied? Reality was stronger than them! They were in a hurry to enter the Death Mist Zone, so why would they care about the details?
One of the captains who led a small group of ships chose to compromise first. He boarded the lifeboat and sailed towards the ship.
Upon seeing this, Lancaster also ordered in a low voice. Then, as the second captain who 'compromised', he sailed towards the ship.
"That bastard …" Liszt was observing the situation from the top of the Hero. When he saw Lancaster make his move, he could not help but grumble.
He had already formed an alliance with Lancaster, but because of Tang Ling's appearance, the alliance was broken.
However, because of Tang Ling's appearance, the alliance was broken without a doubt. The appearance of the alliance meant that the alliance had become a joke. Both he and Lancaster had to be responsible for Tang Ling's safety.
Even so, did Lancaster have to be so proactive?
Liszt rubbed the center of his brows and showed a bitter smile before he disembarked. There was no need to delay this matter anymore. Let's see what Tang Ling has to say.
With the important figures compromising, all the other captains followed suit and gathered towards the small boat covered in black cloth.
Both Ling Yu and Wu Qing smiled bitterly at the sight.
Who were they? They were the leader of the True Capital Seven and the Dark Nine Feathers. They were supposed to shine wherever they went! But why? This voyage seemed to have become Tang Ling's personal stage.
It was the right decision for them to follow Tang Ling! After all, they had gotten a lot of benefits from the Starlight Nether Fish incident.
However, it did not mean that they did not feel aggrieved. There was no stage for them to shine. All they could do was follow Tang Ling like idiots.
Just like this time, none of the captains mentioned them during the conversation. What was Tang Ling thinking? They did not even know what was going on.
**
It was the simplest lifeboat. The cabin was covered by a black cloth. There were only two rows of seats facing each other and a small table in the middle.
There were a total of eight captains on this voyage. As a matter of fact, other than the heavyweight captains like Tang Ling, Liszt, and Lancaster, the other captains knew that they were just there to watch the show. They could not become the biggest winner of the resources nor could they become the winner of the leadership plan that Darkness Port threw out.
However, regardless of how they were there to watch the show, they were still the captains. They felt a little aggrieved that they had to hold a so-called meeting in a boat like this.
They still had the same thought. Did Tang Ling really think of himself as the boss of everyone? Putting aside the fact that the Harvest did not even allow them to board the boat, they had already gathered.
Besides, they were all here, but where was Tang Ling?
Tang Ling was nowhere to be seen! He seemed to be arrogant and his behavior was displeasing to the captains.
Even though he was lucky enough to capture the school of nether fish and even though he started the war, the captains were dissatisfied.
These big captains were not convinced in their hearts! They did not go through the Hell Ledge Challenge with their own eyes, nor were they like the first batch of teenagers who came to Darkness Port. They did not witness how Tang Ling rose to power and created one miracle after another.
Without being crushed by Tang Ling themselves, how could they be convinced?
If they were angry, they would show it on their faces. On the other hand, Liszt and Lancaster, who were the most powerful among them, were calm.
The wind blew the black cloth that covered the boat and even lifted a corner of the curtain that led into the cabin.
Then, a slender hand grabbed the corner of the curtain.
The few teenagers on the boat turned around at the same time and saw the curtain being pulled open. A girl with a perfect figure appeared at the entrance of the cabin.
Gulp! One of the young captains could not help but gulp nervously.
Even though he had seen this girl at the banquet that belonged to Omir, Higan, who was known as the Queen and had an ambiguous relationship with Tang Ling and even made him kill someone because of her, he could not help but feel his heart racing.
Higan was too beautiful. Was she a goddess from heaven?
Even though her pitch-black eyes seemed to be sealed with an iceberg and no one could read her emotions, it was still captivating. Even though there seemed to be an iceberg sealed within her dark eyes, making it impossible for others to see any fluctuations of emotion, it was still enough to make one sink into it.
With that in mind, the young captain closed his eyes and stopped looking at Higan.
She was Tang Ling's girl after all, and they were here for some so-called serious business, so he dared not have any flirtatious thoughts.
As a matter of fact, other than Liszt and Lancaster who could look at Higan, the other teenagers on the boat felt like their aura would subconsciously weaken when they saw her.
Amidst the silence, Higan walked past the few young captains and sat down on a protruding piece of wood in front of the table.
She did not wear a veil. She crossed her legs, placed her elbows on her thighs, and supported her chin with one hand as she stared at the young captains brazenly.
However, there was no emotion in her eyes as if she was looking at a bunch of wooden dolls.
The feeling of being stared at and ignored obviously touched the fragile pride of the teenagers. One of the young captains could not hold it in anymore and asked, "Where's Tang Ling? Why did he ask us to come here and then not show himself? "
Higan looked at the young captain but did not say anything.
However, the young captain could not help but blush as he stammered, unable to say anything.
It was then that Higan said, "There's no Tang Ling. There's only me. Is there a problem? "
