Chapter 716: Shadow of the Ship

One day later, Angel stood on the deck and looked at the thick fog around him.

Is this the little problem Alvin and Helen were talking about? Judging from the naked eye, the visibility may not even be 100 meters. Is there really no problem in this case? Won't you lose your way?

Regarding Angel's doubts, Helen replied with a smile: "Don't worry, sir, we will take this route almost every time we go to Ferland. At least the Yunluo has never encountered danger here. This fog It’s just ordinary sea fog and it won’t affect the direction.”

He himself also sensed that the heavy fog around him was indeed just an ordinary phenomenon of water vapor condensation, but he found nothing unusual. Coupled with the assurances sworn by professionals, Angel did not investigate further and returned to the inner cabin.

After Roman's death, the biggest benefit is that Angel can study illusions without any worries.

However, he did not study illusions today. Instead, he took out his notebook and recorded the events of Levia Hall exactly as they were. When leaving Silver Palm Island that day, Angel asked Toby to fly into the air to observe the situation on the island. He also used a magic trick to enhance his eyesight to look at Silver Palm Island.

But from the outside, there is nothing strange about Silver Palm Island, and the same is true for the information Toby received.

That's a bit strange. Why does Leviathan Hall stay there for so long?

Angel wrote down several of his guesses in the note, such as protecting treasures, being born by chance, hunting down prey, recuperating, and even reproducing and giving birth to children. Angel was all listed among them.

However, he didn't know which one it was, or whether it was listed in Angel's list.

After recording what happened at Levia Hall, Angel originally planned to use the magic tricks of the "True Illusion School" to practice, but after hesitating for a while, he stopped again, took out a piece of white paper and began to write and draw. .

When Roman left that day, the boots on his feet caught Angel's attention.

White wings sprouted from both sides of the black leather boots, allowing him to fly through the air.

"I didn't expect his shoes to be flying vehicles. This is quite interesting."

Angel calculated that using shoes directly as a flying support would definitely not be as fast as a professional flying vehicle, but it would save a lot of trouble and allow for more tactical use in the event of a battle.

He was originally learning the art of tailoring, and when he saw Hunter's heart, he decided to use existing materials to design a shoe that could carry suspended magic patterns.

- If the shoes are too small, clothes will do.

Three days of this immersion passed like this.

During these three days, the Yunluo was still moving forward in the thick fog. As Helen said, the danger in this sea fog was very small. The navigation for these three days was very smooth, and even the bad weather was not encountered. , I just encountered a few second-level apprentice level sea beasts. These sea beasts Angel were handed over to Toby to deal with, and he continued to design his own drawings.

Until that evening, Angel was still immersed in his own world, but Toby suddenly flew into the house. While chirping, he dragged Angel to the balcony.

"What's wrong? Have you encountered another invincible sea beast?" Angel asked Toby with a confused look.

Toby did not answer, but pointed to the northwest with his wings.

Angel looked along Toby's direction, and at this glance, he frowned.

I saw a faint shadow of a ship in the gray-white fog.

Judging from the shadow, this ship is probably still some distance away from the Yunluo, but even so, it can be seen that it is huge. Angel visually estimated that it was at least ten times larger than the Yunluo.

"What kind of ship is this?" Angel looked puzzled. Are there other ships on this route? But this ship is too big, right? You must know that the Yunluo is already a large cargo ship, which is a rare size in any seaport. And this ship is actually so many times larger than the Yunluo, it's like a ship for giants.

On that huge ship, you can still faintly see the flag flying.

But the more he looked, the more he felt that something was not right, because the direction of the wind and the direction of the flag flying were obviously two directions.

In addition, there are still some doubts, such as: Why is such a big ship so quiet?

At this time, Angel saw Helen on the deck below. She was directing the sailors to move the wooden barrels carrying rainwater outside into the cabin.

"Vice Captain Helen, do you know which company the ship over there belongs to?"

Helen looked back and found that the lazy wizard had suddenly stood beside her at some point, and was now looking curiously at the shadow of the boat in the distance in the fog.

Helen also looked over, and when she saw the silhouette of the huge ship, she suddenly laughed: "Sir, judging from the ship shape, it is actually our Baibei Shipping ship, but... it is just a phantom of time and space, not real. ship."

Angel asked suspiciously: "Phantom of time and space? How do you say it?"

"The upper section of this route connects to the Gear Abyss. Didn't I once tell you something unusual about the Gear Abyss? Ships often disappear into the Gear Abyss... The shadows of ships in the fog are actually those ships. The shadow is like a mirage, not real. We will encounter the shadow of a boat every ten times when we pass through this foggy area, but the boats are of different types and sizes, and we have even encountered ancient ship types. , we call it space-time phantom.”

"From the design, it can be seen that the ship is from Baibei Shipping. It may be a ship that disappeared in the Gear Sea Abyss in the past hundred years. The reason why it was built so big is that it is also an airship that can fly." Helen explained at this time, and sighed: "Such a big ship, it is estimated that many people died at that time, what a pity."

After listening to Helen's explanation, Angell was a little surprised.

"It turned out to be an illusion." No wonder Angell felt that it looked a bit wrong.

Angel noticed that the other sailors around him did not look surprised, and few people focused on the shadows of the ship in the fog. Obviously, they knew what those shadows were.

Helen: "The Devil's Sea is not only bad in climate, but also has many strange phenomena. And most of them are not as safe as these shadows, and almost all of them are murderous. Therefore, our shipping has a meaning of existence. According to the experience of our predecessors, we have opened up relatively safe routes."

If you go to an unknown area at will, no one knows what you will encounter. This is the Devil's Sea. Without a guide, you may be lost here forever.

The secret of the Devil's Sea is too deep. At Angel's current level, he probably doesn't even have the qualifications to explore it.

After saying goodbye to Helen, Angel was still very interested in the space-time phantom of the ship. This might be a kind of illusion. But he didn't dare to observe it closely. If he got lost in the fog, it would be terrible.

So, he could only observe the huge ship shadow from a distance, and at the same time, feel the fluctuations brought by the wind.

When Angel observed the ship shadow, he vaguely found that this illusion had a familiar feeling.

"It's a bit like the mirage created by Erdes." Angel came to this conclusion after carefully tasting it. Could it be that there is actually a super sea clam similar to Erdes nearby?

Angel leaned against the railing and lowered his head to look at the sea.

It was pitch black and nothing could be seen. But even so, Angel felt a chill rising.

If it is really a sea clam similar to Erdes, how big would it be? After all, these phantoms are all ships that disappeared in the Gear Abyss, which is very far away from the Gear Abyss.

Angel shuddered and stopped thinking about it. Sometimes, people's fear of the unknown comes entirely from unfounded imagination.

After a while, the huge ship finally disappeared in the fog, and Angel returned to the bedroom with regret.

Two days later, Angel was taken out by Toby again while designing the draft.

"A ship shadow again?" Angel looked at the vague shadow in the sea fog and sighed helplessly. Compared with these unclear ship shadows, he actually wanted to go back and continue designing the "flying boots". He had designed it to the last minute. He wanted to discuss the appearance with Nano and try to refine it at night.

Since he was dragged out by Toby, Angel followed his intention and observed the shadow that appeared in front.

Judging from the shadow, the size of the ship is about the same as Yunluo, and there is nothing special about the other parts.

Angell wanted to perfunctorily go back to his room to continue designing the drawings, but at this moment, his brows suddenly frowned. Because he found something wrong, the ship had been standing still, because the Yunluo was moving, so the ship was getting closer and closer.

Last time, the huge ship shadow they encountered had always maintained a certain distance, and no matter how the Yunluo moved, there was no sign of approaching.

"If we continue to sail, we will definitely meet this ship shadow." Angell's eyes lit up, and he just wanted to observe the illusion up close to determine whether it was a mirage.

But when Angell was paying attention, the sailors on the deck were in a commotion.

They all pointed at the ship in the fog, showing incredible expressions.

While Angell was still wondering, Alvin suddenly sent a message in the command room: "There is a ship ahead, everyone be on guard."

Angell was stunned: "Hey, this time it's not a ship shadow, it's a real ship?"

While Angell was wondering, the Yunluo was getting closer and closer to the strange and stagnant ship shadow.

Angel still held a respectful attitude towards the unknown. He took off his right glove and released a large-scale nightmare magic to cover the Yunluo.

No matter what the ship was, it was the best thing to take care of yourself first.

In due time, the Yunluo finally entered the visual range of the ship.

When everyone saw the true face of the ship, Helen suddenly exclaimed: "This is a ship model from the Golden Age, at least three thousand years ago!"
