"What's the maximum distance?" Angele questioned in a deep tone.
The light screen on the table started changing. Images of the sea were flashing on the screen. However, no land could be seen.
Isabel put her hand on the surface of the table and all the powder was absorbed into her palm. It felt like a magnet was attracted to iron powder.
A flash of lightning flashed in the sky and illuminated Angele's body.
Isabel was concentrating on sprinkling the silver powder on the table.
Isabel nodded. "It's almost done."
"I'm tired," Isabel said in a light tone.
Isabel's sight fell upon the table. She slowly lowered her hand and there was a handful of silver powder in her palm.
A familiar island appeared on the white screen.
"Of course." Angele nodded. "Without the mast and sails, we can't even reach the speed of two knots. We need to find a way to increase the speed of the ship, or else we'll be stranded on the sea." One knot meant one nautical mile per hour. Two knots meant two nautical miles per hour.
Angele's relationship with Isabel was probably the same as well.
"I'm still worried about the water supply. Your technique is perfect. Otherwise, we'll need to create energy streams to quench our thirst. It's bad for our bodies if we drink too much of it. Don't drink it unless you have to. "Angele stopped for a second." The problem is, how do we increase the speed of the ship? "
* Crack *
He could tell that Isabel was a very emotional person. She was not meant to be a wizard, but her family and talent forced her to choose this path.
Isabel's brow furrowed. "My spell is a tracking spell from the Divination Department. Although the distance is good, the effect is … I can't tell the distance. Also, there might be other islands on the way, so I might make a mistake. The energy in the Gem Sea is too strong, and it'll interfere with the casting of the spell. "
Perhaps it was because the two of them saw an indescribable loneliness in each other. It was the same kind of loneliness.
The only thing they could see was the gray sea.
Isabel pointed at the runes on the table.
At this moment, it felt like the cabin was the only place that was peaceful. The outside was filled with thunderstorms and strong gales.
"You just want to live a peaceful life. I just need a good rest, "Angele responded calmly.
The image shook for a moment, but it quickly stabilized.
"Then, I'll go out and take a look." Angele put on the hood of his gray robe and opened the door. The chilling wind brought raindrops into the room.
"Unable to increase clarity and transmit sound. This means that we might still be very far away from the island … "Isabel's face turned pale. "It should be at the furthest distance that this spell can detect."
"Yeah, you can tell?" Isabel nodded. "Actually, I've long been tired of this life of collecting knowledge and resources other than meditation. Learning, meditation, research, resources, resources, resources. I have lived this life alone in the castle for over a hundred years. I don't want my life to be filled with only one color. "
"How far is it from us?" Angele walked to the table. The white light at the edge of the screen illuminated both of their faces.
Rumble!
Angele was still thinking about how to create a metal mast and sail with his Metal Mastery. Angele stopped thinking after hearing the question.
The image on the table in front of her suddenly flashed and turned into another piece of land.
There were garrisoned soldiers, ships docked by the sea, a gray lighthouse, and a triangular flag fluttering in the wind. It was a flag with a silver horizontal line in the middle of the white field.
Angele stopped looking at Isabel and looked at her.
She calmed down and asked in a light tone, "Green, do you like the sea?"
The two remained silent for a while. They did not expect that they would be in such an awkward situation after leaving the dangerous island.
The only thing Angele felt was a peaceful feeling.
Isabel was sitting behind the wooden table with a black leather pouch in her hand. She took out some white powder from the pouch and slowly sprinkled it on the table.
* BZZZ *
He had seen a lot of women, and most of them were beautiful, which gave him the urge to possess them. But at this moment, facing the beautiful Isabel, and the two of them were alone in a small room, he didn't have any desire or impulse to move his heart.
"Let's find a way to increase the speed of the ship. Our speed is two nautical miles per hour. It'll take us at least two months to cover the 3000 nautical miles. We can't afford to waste so much time. We should head back as soon as possible, "Angele spoke in a deep tone.
The thunder rumbled again.
The image on the table changed again.
Isabel's brow furrowed, but she did not say a word.
Isabel finally realized what was going on. She raised her index finger and drew a rune in the air. The rune turned into a ray of white light and disappeared into the white light screen on the table.
* Ka * The door was closed.
"It's better than wandering aimlessly," Angele spoke in a light tone. "Let's start."
She looked a bit lonely. White steam rose from the palm of her hand and quickly evaporated. "Every time this happens, I want to stay away from everything and be alone in the world. In the endless stormy world, I was alone in my safe and warm room, listening to the wind and rain outside. Can you understand what it feels like? "
"3000 nautical miles!" Angele inhaled deeply. The distance from China to the United States was only about 6000 nautical miles. They were in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. It would be difficult for the ship to return to its original location in a short time.
The black ship was not eye-catching on the dark sea. It was moving along with the waves.
"Can I do that?" Isabel was surprised.
Angele noticed that the image was a bit blurry and he could not hear any sound.
In the heavy rain, Angele stood in front of the glass window in the cabin. He looked at the endless sea through the rain. The water was rippling and the raindrops were hitting the deck and the shell of the ship.
The heavy rain was pouring down from the sky. The ship was moving forward slowly in the heavy rain.
"There's no land within a certain distance," she spoke in a low voice.
She sprinkled the powder into the air and created a large complicated rune on the table.
"No …" Angele's brow furrowed. "Oh right, we're friends. Just call me Green. You don't have to be polite."
"I'm checking the deck to see if the rain will return to the sea," Isabel responded in a low voice. The light screen in front of her slowly dimmed down. It seemed like the time was up.
In this world, there would always be a person who had a similar state of mind to himself. Such a person could easily read most of one's mind, because they themselves were the same.
"If everything goes well, we'll have to stay on the sea for at least half a month." Isabel spoke in a calm tone. "Do you have any good ideas? Master Green. "
"Are you ready?" he asked in a low voice.
A ray of lightning flashed across the sky.
The rain outside the cabin hit the hull of the ship, creating a dense patter, and from time to time a few lightning bolts and thunder could be heard. The strong wind that was gradually getting stronger poured into the cracks of the cabin, making strange howling sounds.
Isabel did not respond.
"What happened?"
Isabel tapped her finger on the table, making a crisp sound.
Isabel nodded.
Intense white light flashed on the rune and turned into a white screen that looked like a water screen.
He was in his own room. The silver candlestick on the table was shaking and the wax was dripping onto the brown wooden table.
"That's not the worst part. I'm afraid that we've already left the merfolk's territory and we're floating in the outer area of the Gem Sea. Even the merfolk don't want to go there. "Isabel's brow furrowed. "Luckily, I learned how to filter seawater from my family. There's not much fresh water left on the ship, otherwise, drinking water would be a hassle."
The beach was made up of gray rocks and several black turtles were crawling in the gaps between the rocks. Angele could see a dark forest on the far side. It looked like a deserted island.
The raindrops on the deck landed on Angele's body. He tightened his robe. The surface of his robe was already covered with a thin layer of metal, and the raindrops slid down his body. Angele's robe did not get wet at all.
Although both of them had their own families and loved ones, the feeling was the same.
"I used to dream about traveling alone on the endless Gem Sea. I wanted to adventure, I wanted to see different races, and I wanted to witness the legends left by the ancient wizards. I wanted to travel alone in the middle of a storm. It felt like my cabin was the only place in the world that was safe. "
Ever since the conversation at the bow of the ship, he and Isabel seemed to have developed a kind of tacit understanding.
"It's all up to you now. My spells have a limited range. I've tried, but I can't find the land we came from." Angele was a bit speechless.
"Well …" Angele did not know what to say. "Do you like reading novels and poems?"
"It's the island we left on!" Isabel was excited. Although there was no expression on her face, Angele could see the joy in her eyes.
Isabel also nodded her head.
She had changed into a tight-fitting white leather suit, making her look like a court musician. It was gorgeous yet elegant, accentuating her slender waist and perky chest. Her long black hair was tied into a ponytail and pulled from the right side of her neck to her chest.
"Isabel, don't say that again." Angele broke the silence.
The white light screen slowly returned to its original silvery-white powder, and the complicated characters drawn on the table also became a little messy. However, these silvery white lines were slowly emitting white smoke, and many of the fine powder had melted and solidified.
"What about Gill and Rivail?" Angele broke the silence.
Angele did not say anything else.
"Three thousand nautical miles …" Isabel responded in a low voice.
