Chapter 600: The Strangeness of the Floating Island

"Master, it's all right now, let's move on."

After all matters were resolved, Chen Ziyan found the captain.

He knew that ever since encountering the floating island made up of ancient ships, the cargo ship under his feet not only stopped moving forward, but also quietly changed direction.

Chen Ziyan knew clearly the purpose of the captain's doing this, which was nothing more than intending to retreat immediately when the situation turned bad. He had nothing to say about this, because this was human nature. After all, the previous situation was there, and it was indeed extremely dangerous in the eyes of ordinary people.

But this is a different time. Now that the problem has been solved, he can no longer be indecisive. He has to make the captain give up those unnecessary thoughts.

Although they had said before that they would come in and take a look and test the specific situation, that was because they were afraid of the strange creatures hidden in the storm.

But now, as strange creatures, the sea monkeys have proved through their actions that they can't do anything to Chen Ziyan and others, so this concern naturally no longer needs to exist.

"Okay... I understand. Let's set sail again." After hesitating for a moment, the captain agreed obediently despite his trepidation.

Although he was reluctant to go deeper, he knew that he had no say in the matter.

As a bystander, he just witnessed the whole process.

In addition to truly witnessing Chen Ziyan's strength, he also saw clearly his character and skills.

Especially the way this gentleman dealt with those disobedient guys made him thoroughly understand what kind of character Chen Ziyan was. With his experience, he knew that facing Chen Ziyan's decision, his best choice was to obey.

At this time, the captain finally understood why the person who helped Chen Ziyan contact him earlier told him earnestly that he should listen to Chen Ziyan in everything.

Previously he had thought that the other party was afraid that the new bandit leader of Xiangling was too young to control the tigers and leopards on this boat, so they wanted him to help them more. Now he finally understood that it was for his own good.

Leaving the captain with mixed feelings, Chen Ziyan slowly walked out of the captain's room. He could more or less guess what the captain was thinking. And not only the captain, but even those temporary servants probably knew it as well.

But Chen Ziyan didn't care about it at all, because to him, it didn't matter what the people on the boat thought, as long as they didn't cause trouble for him.

To put it bluntly, these people are useful to him, but none of them is so important that he cannot do without them.

Suddenly Chen Ziyan stopped and a question suddenly occurred to him: where was the floating island that was slowly approaching them?
If he remembered correctly, the gunfire seemed to have stopped when the sea monkeys escaped just now. Why didn't anyone come to report the situation to him?

Whether the floating island was sunk by them or other situations occurred, someone should come and tell us.

Thinking of this, Chen Ziyan immediately realized that something was wrong, because he found that even he had subconsciously ignored the floating island.

He immediately wanted to ask other people if they had noticed this problem.

But as soon as this thought appeared, he suppressed it himself, because Chen Ziyan already had the answer in his heart.

Because he knew who was on his ship.

The floating island is made up of ancient ships from several dynasties. Anyone with a little knowledge would know that anything left on it would probably be worth a fortune.

Perhaps some of his temporary helpers don't care about this, but it is impossible for all of them to ignore it, so there has been no movement until now, which means that they have subconsciously ignored the existence of the floating island.

So he couldn't ask those guys rashly, because he might not get an answer, and it would cause people's hearts to change again, so it was better to have less trouble than more. Anyway, after arriving at the underwater tomb, all doubts could be answered there, so there was no need to rush.

Besides...it's not like he doesn't have other targets to ask.

Thinking of this, Chen Ziyan calmly walked to the artillery position on the deck and found the gunners who were cleaning up the position.

Looking at the few people, Chen Ziyan went straight to the point: "Do you still remember that floating island?"

"The floating island is not..."

Faced with Chen Ziyan's question, several gunners looked confused.

It was not difficult to tell from their expressions that after Chen Ziyan's reminder, they all remembered the floating island, but they missed the final result.

"Was it sunk or drifted away?" After thinking for a while, Chen Ziyan asked again.

Because a few people were reminded of the floating island, he planned to explore it further, and in order to get the answer, he also kindly helped to define the scope.

But what Chen Ziyan didn't expect was that this time he actually got two answers.

One of the gunners scratched his head and said uncertainly: "I remember...it seemed to have sunk."

But the gunner next to him said, "Why do I remember it floating away?"

Seeing this, Chen Ziyan understood that the answers given by these two people were debatable. They might be reminders from him rather than the actual situation.

"Okay, I know what's going on, you guys keep busy."

Chen Ziyan did not continue asking. Looking at the state of these people, he knew that it was useless to ask further. It was obvious that their memory was more vague than his, and the answers they gave seriously lacked authenticity.

But Chen Ziyan had just taken two steps when he suddenly turned around and looked at a few people, because he clearly heard that the gunners who wanted to argue just now suddenly changed the subject, as if nothing had happened.

There was no need to test it further. Having witnessed this scene with his own eyes, he was already completely certain that there was definitely something wrong with the floating island made up of ancient ships.

As for where the problem lies, Chen Ziyan doesn't know yet, but he has a guess in his mind, that is, the floating island may have some ability to confuse cognition, or there may be something on it that has this ability.

Wang Zanghai’s methods are truly powerful!
After thinking of this possibility, Chen Ziyan sighed sincerely in his heart.

If this incident had not happened, he might have thought that the floating island was created by sea monkeys, but now he no longer thinks so.

Because no matter how intelligent the sea monkeys are, they are not capable of such a trick.

At this moment, a ray of starlight penetrated the thick dark clouds and scattered on the deck in front of Chen Ziyan.

Chen Ziyan subconsciously looked up at the sky, and realized that since some time ago, the dark clouds in the sky had become much dimmer.

After seeing this scene, Chen Ziyan couldn't help but turn his head to look behind him. When he saw the still pitch-black road he came from, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He was right!
