The thick fog … covered everything here.
The spy stood at the bow of the ship and looked at the surrounding space shrouded in dark fog. Lin knew that they had entered an unknown world.
Lin had never been to this place before. To her, it was a mysterious place. As expected, exploration should be done slowly. It would be much more interesting if it was done slowly.
No matter how fast one moved, it would be difficult to discover anything in the void because everything was too far away from one another.
But here, it felt like the mysterious thing was right in front of her.
There was a strange smell in the air here.
When the spy inhaled the water vapor into his body, he could tell that the thick fog here was mainly composed of water and various dust particles, including some things like pollen, which made the fog smell very special.
The silver dragons drove the ship into a large area of fog. The visibility here was quite low, but the silver dragons maintained their previous speed and did not slow down at all.
A few silver dragons stood beside the spy, holding a long metal stick in their hands. Hanging from the stick was something called a lantern, which contained some kind of sticky substance for burning.
The silver dragons kept waving the lanterns in their hands, making the dim light flicker in the thick fog. Although it could not illuminate the path ahead, it seemed to be a way for them to determine the direction.
On the surrounding ships, there were also silver dragons waving these kinds of lanterns, but because the fog was too thick, they could not see the ships. They could only see the flickering light spots.
Clang …
When the spy looked at the light spots, a strange sound entered his ears.
This sound … seemed to be coming from outside the ship?
The spy walked to the edge of the ship to take a look. Lin realized. The ship was now sailing on a furry green field. There seemed to be dark green grass growing in the water below the ship. It covered the surrounding water.
The grass on the water seemed to be the end of a kind of algae. They poked out of the water and were secreting small white balls at the tip.
"It's pearls!" A voice came from the spy's side. The silver dragons waving the lanterns at the bow of the ship had come over at some point. They all stared at the grass below the ship with wide eyes.
The word 'pearls' was used to describe the spherical secretion of certain kinds of shellfish. The white dragons also had a similar word, and Lin realized that they had used this word to describe the grass on the water's surface just now. The pronunciation was exactly the same as the white dragons from before.
There were some words they used before, and they didn't find any problems with them.
The Silver Armored Dragons stared at the grass under the water, as if they really wanted to go down and take it, but they didn't dare.
"Ga …!" One of the Silver Armored Dragons couldn't take it anymore. It began to take off its armor on the ship.
"What are you going to do? Could it be that you want to go down and take it? "The surrounding Silver Armored Dragon looked at it in surprise and said," No, that's too dangerous! "
"Pearls are very valuable! As long as I get a little bit, I can … "It quickly took off all its equipment, then took a rope from the cabin door and tied it to itself.
The rope was one of the few that was not made of metal, and seemed to be made from the tendons of a half-fish.
"You guys have to hold onto me! I will take your share. "The Silver Armored Dragon handed the rope to his companion and slowly slid down the side of the boat.
The other Silver Armored Dragons couldn't do anything either. All he could do was to help it hold on to the rope. However, from the looks of it, they all seemed to want those 'pearls'.
"Ga …" The Silver Armored Dragon below was already close to the surface of the water. It very carefully reached out to grab the grass on the surface of the water, trying to get a small white ball from the tip of the grass …
"Dong." The small ball was knocked off and fell into the water.
This seemed to have caused a chain reaction, and all the small balls on the grass around it fell down.
"Bang!" Almost at the same time, there was a sudden loud noise on the surface of the water. The Silver Armored Dragon that was touching the small ball on the surface of the water instantly disappeared, and only a broken section of the rope that was tied to it was left.
That was …
"Ga!" The few Silver Armored Dragons on the boat saw this and quickly retreated in fear. They threw down the rope and trembled as they raised the lantern and shook it with all their might. "Ga … It disappeared! It really disappeared! We don't want to disappear! "
Lin's spy was still by the side of the boat. Although the Silver Armored Dragon might not have seen the situation clearly, the spy could see that the Silver Armored Dragon was swallowed by something …
It should be a living creature, but it was extremely fast, and the color of its body was exactly the same as the surrounding environment. Lin felt that it could fly and had some kind of connection with the plants on the water.
The Silver Armored Dragons seemed to be unable to see the creature's speed, so they thought that it had disappeared. But why didn't the creature attack the boat? Was it because they were holding the lantern?
If they continued to stay here, they would definitely see more interesting things …
The Silver Armored Dragons' fear lasted for a long time until the boat left the area with the water plants. Only then did they seem to be more at ease.
However, the boat once again sailed to a strange place. Here, the boat stopped.
Lin could see through the lantern's light that the nearby boats had also stopped here because there was a long … obstacle in front of the boat.
This' obstacle 'was made up of a large number of rocks that protruded more than two meters out of the water. The rocks were square in shape, and they were arranged in a very neat horizontal line that stretched for an unknown distance.
There were many marine creatures called barnacles and some small trilobites covering the rocks.
Although they looked like ordinary rocks, this arrangement was obviously deliberately made by some creature. Moreover, these rocks were not ordinary, they were … floating on the water.
If one got closer, they could even see that the rocks were entangled by many aquatic plants.
"We've reached the entrance." A few Silver Armored Dragons waved their lanterns and walked to the bow of the boat. They waved their lanterns at the bow of the boat, and the lanterns on the other boats did the same …
Boom … Then, the boat moved again. It directly crashed into the row of floating rocks. Slowly, it pushed them away.
That action just now. What was the point?
Lin could not find anything related to this in their recording metal plates.
The next part of the sea. It was still a thick fog, but it was much darker than before because night had arrived …
Even in the increasingly dark environment, the Silver Armored Dragons still held their lanterns and stood at the bow of the boat. Although their actions ensured the distance between the boats, they still could not see the environment in front of them clearly …
The sea was always changing, and it was not a place that could be understood with experience. Why were they so confident that they could sail in this thick fog?
Boom. Lin suddenly heard a sound.
A spot of light appeared on the surface of the water in the distance …
That light was exactly the same as the lantern the Silver Armored Dragons were holding, but it appeared more than ten meters in front of the boat, so it could not be a boat.
But … an island?
When the boat approached the light, Lin saw that the light was on an island. No, rather than an island, it was more like a rock. This rock floated on the surface of the sea. The rock was less than three meters in diameter, and a stone torch stood in the middle of the rock. There were also some fish bones piled up beside it.
This rock was probably made of the same material as the one they saw before. Although it looked like a rock, it had the ability to float.
And who put the torch in the middle there? Was it a Silver Armored Dragon? Moreover, it was not easy to light a torch in such a foggy environment … There were so many strange things in this sea.
Thud. Lin heard that sound again.
The moment the sound was heard, a large number of spots of light suddenly appeared around her, as if countless torches were lit at the same time. However, they could not illuminate the sea of fog that had already entered the night, and only added a lot of strange spots of light to the surroundings.
They looked like … "will-o '-the-wisps." With each light source, Lin could see that it was a rock with a torch in the middle. Each rock was three to ten meters in diameter, and there were some fish corpses or remains piled up around the torches.
The Silver Armored Dragons seemed to be afraid of this phenomenon. They kept waving their lanterns at the bow of the boat, trying not to look at the floating rocks with their eyes closed, but their bodies were still trembling in fear.
"What are those floating rocks and torches?" The spy walked up to a Silver Armored Dragon waving a lantern, patted it and asked.
"Gah!" The Silver Armored Dragon was so scared that the lantern in its hand almost fell into the water. It immediately turned to the spy and said, "You don't know?"
"I don't know," the spy said. "Can you explain?"
"I can't talk about that here …" The Silver Armored Dragon used its eyes to indicate a rock not far from the side of the boat. The spy saw a group of finned creatures gathered around the torch on the rock …
These were … half-fish?
No, although they looked similar, they were much bigger. One of them was more than two meters long, and the scales on its body reflected a dark red glow under the light of the fire.
They seemed to be similar but stronger creatures. At the same time, they were also looking over here, as if they were ready to come over at any time …
It was not until the boat left that the Silver Armored Dragon next to the spy sighed in relief.
"Why don't you know the situation here?" The Silver Armored Dragon said to the spy again, "This is the Sea of Lights. It's very dangerous because it's the outpost of those monsters."
"Those monsters?" The spy asked in confusion.
"You don't know that? Could you be … "The Silver Armored Dragon's tone became more and more suspicious, and a few Silver Armored Dragons who were waving their lanterns around looked over …
"It might be new here," another Silver Armored Dragon said. "Because the route we took when we came out is different from the route we took back, it's not strange that we don't know."
"But this is a lesson that every dragon has to learn …"
"Don't say anymore, we've reached the shore." The Silver Armored Dragon pointed to the front. In the hazy fog, a huge black shadow appeared. Floating astronomy.
