* Woo woo woo … *
At the outermost area of the Scattered Stars Islands, the messy sea breeze blew left and right, making people confused.
However, a huge battleship that looked like a fortress on the sea crushed it without a care and charged into the inner part of the islands majestically. The whirlpool under the water didn't need the help of the wind at all.
It was a large dark blue battleship that was the size of a first-level navy battleship. Compared to wood, its material was more like solidified water.
Its overall structure wasn't much different from a normal battleship, but it was lower.
The most special thing was that there were three masts on the deck that looked like fish fins, and there were sails that looked like flowing white clouds. There was no statue at the front of the ship. Instead, there was an octopus head that looked like a bubble.
It was the [Legendary Armor — Sea Spirit] that belonged to Elvin for the time being.
At the same time, in the captain's room on the lower level of the ship.
Jeros's expression was a little sluggish. He subconsciously stroked the wall of the Sea Soul and muttered, "That's right.
"This … seems to be, probably, the third legendary battleship?"
Jeros had seen the [Miracle Crown] and the [Emerald Corona] before, and he only had a half-completed [Theseus]. He had been envious of Elvin's wealth for a long time.
However, he didn't expect to see the third [Sea Spirit] when he was invited to work together again!
Beside him, Elvin sat on an exquisite chair and played with the [Battleship Key] black pearl pendant in his hand. He casually put his feet on the table in front of him and didn't seem to be stingy with this precious legendary battleship.
"Oh, you mean the 'Sea Spirit'? So it was broken. I just found someone to fix it and drove it back a few days ago.
Actually, I don't really like this slow traditional battleship style, and the design doesn't fit my taste at all.
If it wasn't for its unique legendary battleship technology, I wouldn't even want to put it in my 300-square-kilometer [Sorcerer's Garden]. It takes up too much space. "
Hearing this, Jeros rolled his eyes and silently gave him 32 middle fingers in his heart.
"You have a lot of money, you call the shots …"
At this moment, the Sea Soul that was delayed for half a year had been completely repaired.
It had a total length of 72 meters and a normal displacement of 3,500 tons when sailing on the water surface. There were three layers of cannon decks and a total of 110 cannons on board. Other than the ten Coral Cannons on both sides of the ship that could be used to launch [Bomb Cyclone], the other cannons could only launch normal high-pressure water bullets.
Elvin had made an appointment with Jeros, who lived at the edge of Celebes Island, in advance. He simply activated [Dream Cruise] and sent the entire [Sea Soul] to the edge of the Scattered Stars Islands.
Only then did they begin the exploration of the last hundred kilometers.
At a depth of 8,000 meters, the "scars of the sea" where sea monsters lurked everywhere, the turbulent water flow, wind direction, geomagnetism, astronomical phenomena, and other bad sea conditions did not affect Elvin at all.
Right now, there were only the two of them on the entire ship. Considering the notoriety of the Shattered Star Sea, before they were sure that the danger was under control, they did not bring any of the women at home.
Originally, he wanted to bring Milan along, but he didn't know if he sensed that something was wrong in advance, so he asked for leave in advance to return to the mainland.
However, this was good too.
With a powerful legendary warship in hand and the cooperation of two great wizards, they could naturally take some risks when they were at the front line.
Therefore, the two of them whose "adventurer's blood" was boiling hit it off and came up with a bold idea in the blink of an eye.
They could directly pass through the periphery of the islands underwater and go to the forbidden area to see what it really looked like. At the very least, they would definitely get a [World's Favor].
Snap!
Elvin lightly snapped his fingers.
"Let's go. We'll go early and come back early. Let's take a look at the situation first. We still have to go home for dinner tonight. Order: Sea Soul, activate [Legendary Warship Skill, Underwater Movement]! "
Then, the bubble-like octopus "Ship Spirit" at the bow of the ship let out a bubbling sound. The three slanted masts on the Sea Soul had turned into real "fins", allowing it to dive into the water like a fish.
* Splash … *
The four walls of the captain's cabin had turned transparent, and the scenery of the bottom of the sea could be seen at a glance. At first, there were all kinds of thriving corals, algae, swimming fish … But as they continued to dive deeper, the surroundings were soon left with cold and dark seawater, and … a terrifying silence.
With the help of the illumination spell.
The two of them spread out the [Secret Treasure of the Sea, Ancient Scroll] on the table and put their heads on it.
Looking at the densely packed "Shattered Star Sea" that was made up of at least 50,000 islands at the periphery and the core, they couldn't help but frown. Because even with their strength, at least a quarter of the outline was red, which meant that there was a huge potential danger.
The main purpose of their exploration this time was not to get more [World's Favor], but to find out the bottom line of the so-called red danger level and determine the safe border for others to land.
The destination that the two of them chose was the outermost southeast of the "Shattered Star Islands", a medium-sized red island surrounded by a group of inconspicuous islands.
As for why they chose to go underwater instead of using the more convenient dream world or the [Mental Network] to investigate?
[Dream World Cruise] did have a unique advantage, but it did not mean that they could do whatever they wanted. Can you imagine jumping into an evil spirit's dream while you're jumping?
It was a nightmare of nightmares!
According to what Jeros had said, the Magi of Celebes Island had already experimented long ago. Those below Grade 3 were not qualified to fly freely in this sea region. All sorts of ferocious predators would definitely teach these arrogant fellows a lesson at the first opportunity.
Although the "Seagull Sprites" that had lost their physical limitations and did not need oxygen could stay almost permanently at an altitude of 30,000 meters, which was the limit of nearly 90% of the total atmospheric volume.
However, not to mention 30,000 meters, even if they flew 300 meters, they could no longer see anything on the island below or the sea. It was as if even the light here was chaotic, intentionally or unintentionally obstructing any form of observation from the outside world.
"Gulp … Gulp …"
The Sea Spirit's [Whirlpool Maneuver] could only reach a maximum speed of 40 kilometers per hour, which was 22 knots, and its underwater movement speed was only 20 knots.
They sailed for two and a half hours, and after successfully passing through more than a dozen yellow and orange islands, they were still one-third of the way to the target island.
After hiding in the deep sea for a long time, the dark and silent scene made them panic.
"Pa!"
While chatting with Jeros to relieve the annoyance in his heart, he casually opened his "Golden Compass".
Elvin suddenly realized that the needle on the "Golden Compass" had been pointing in one direction ever since they entered the "Shattered Star Sea".
"Huh? This is … "
"That is the" Golden Kingdom "that guards the gate. After entering the Shattered Star Sea, the Golden Compass will only point there when there is no danger, and it will not affect its original purpose."
Jeros, who was already experienced, also took out his "Golden Compass" and pointed in the same direction.
"Oh, I see. We have to wait for at least two years, it's still too early now. "
However, just as the two were about to put away the "Golden Compass", they saw the needle of the compass suddenly deviate to the three o 'clock direction.
Their faces instantly changed.
The two adventurers knew very well what it meant. The "Golden Compass" was telling them to run in the three o 'clock direction!
As the captain of the ship, Elvin shouted.
"Not good! 'Sea Soul', turn around! "
At the same time, the [Secret Treasure of the Sea – Ancient Scroll], which was originally normal, suddenly turned red!
"Rumble …"
In the next moment, a terrifying vortex that was as turbulent as an underwater tsunami attacked the Sea Soul.
After a few breaths, "Creak!", "Creak!", loud noises had already made the two of them change color.
Elvin did not dare to hesitate anymore.
"Roar —"
[Bloodline Plug-In – Cosmic Dragon!]
After Dragonization, [King Chariot Transposition] was fully activated and the entire battleship disappeared into the void.
At the last moment, Elvin glanced back in surprise. In the terrifying turbulence that even the Sea Soul could not withstand, the black behemoth that he could not see clearly brushed past them and paid no attention to them at all.
Maybe it was … an underwater mountain range?
The oldest and strongest human emotion was fear, and the oldest and strongest fear was the unknown.
The water in the "Shattered Star Sea" was obviously deeper than they thought at the beginning. Even if it was deep at the bottom of the sea, it was not a safe zone. At least it was not too late to find out now.
"Boom!"
Water splashed everywhere.
The "Sea Soul" had returned to the surface of the sea. However, they did not break through the outer barrier. Instead, they had completely left the "Shattered Star Sea".
After escaping, the two of them who still had the terrifying shadow in their minds repeatedly asked, "Who am I? Where am I?"
The first exploration was already considered to be a failure.
The two of them lay on the deck for a while before they recovered.
"Next time, we will still …"
Before he could finish his sentence, Elvin suddenly had an idea and said to Jeros, "Excuse me.
I need to pick up a call. "
He then winked mischievously.
"Your sister-in-law, as her brother-in-law, do you want to talk to her?"
Jeros quickly stepped back.
He lay on the deck of the "Sea Soul" and took out a pot of tea from the [Sorcerer's Garden]. He tiptoed and took a sip to calm himself down before he connected the [Mental Network] signal.
After the trans-oceanic communication line was opened, Levina would talk to Elvin from time to time on the phone. They talked about astronomy, geography, military affairs, politics … There was nothing she did not talk about.
But this time, Levina, whose figure was projected on Elvin's retina, only said one thing solemnly.
"Elvin, it's almost time."
Elvin's expression instantly turned serious, and he had already sat up.
"Okay, I'll go there in a few days."
He turned around and looked at Jeros, who was looking at him curiously. The news that Elvin spat out was like thunder to him.
"Our exploration plan may have to be delayed for a while because the mother of Her Highness Stephanie and Her Highness Levina, our queen, is going to … abdicate!"
