Chapter 148
"Mr. Dylan, do you know what is the most dangerous thing at sea?" Stevenson put down the knife and fork in his hand and took a sip of his wine.

"Well, pirate?" Ryan looked back at Stevenson.

"Pirates are indeed dangerous. They drive ships and go wherever they want. No one can take precautions in advance, especially on such a wonderful night." Stevenson paused, then smiled:
"But for a ship like the Prince Laurence, piracy is actually a minor problem."

"See the twelve huge cannons on both sides of it? No pirate ship can survive such gunfire without sinking. If they used a small boat, they would be swept up when they approached the Prince Lawrence. Get in the bottom of the boat."

"It's not a pirate, what is that?" Ryan asked slightly surprised.

Stevenson glanced at the direction of the moon and said: "The most dangerous thing is some legends on this ocean and some sea areas."

"legend?"

"Mr. Dylan should know that this ocean was connected to the Sea of ​​Storms before, or in other words, it itself is part of the Sea of ​​Storms,"

Ryan nodded, motioning for Stevenson to continue.

"The reason why the Sea of ​​Storms has this name is because it hides many terrifying dangers. Even a demigod may encounter misfortune in it. Although the South China Sea has been separated from the Sea of ​​Storms, the original dangers in the sea have not disappeared together. .”

"The distance between Tello Port and Tylenburg is not too far. If you travel in a straight line, at the speed of the Prince Lawrence, you can arrive in less than ten days. The extra week is to avoid the danger at sea."

"Danger? Do you mean the huge waves and turbulence just now?" Ryan was a little curious.

"This is just one of them." Stevenson smiled and continued: "The unicorn whale caused a small problem. If it encounters real huge waves and turbulence, even if the Prince Lawrence is ten times larger than it is now, it will still be a problem." It will be drawn into it and become debris floating on the sea surface, but fortunately, there are certain signs every time there are huge waves and turbulence, as long as you are not stupid, there is enough time to escape."

Ten times bigger?Ryan was secretly startled, this volume may have surpassed the size of the aircraft carrier in his previous life, and it would be swallowed by the vortex. How big a vortex must it be?
"In addition to the huge waves and turbulence, there are several dangers that must be avoided. Once you encounter them, you will die."

While talking, another crew member brought over the fish soup. Stevenson took a sip of the fish soup and couldn't help but narrow his eyes, as if he was relishing the deliciousness of the fish soup. He couldn't help admiring:
"I dare say it's definitely one of the most wonderful smells in the world."

Ryan gave a thumbs up and agreed. The milky white fish soup looks viscous, but it tastes very clear, which is really delicious.

Stevenson put down the spoon in his hand, and sighed on the topic just now:

"The most dangerous place in the South China Sea is the Stormy Dilemma. This is the most notorious area in the Sea of ​​Storms. There, the powerful storm will never stop, and the fierce wind and sea water will flow backwards. Legend has it that there is a powerful person in that sea area." The banshee, even if a demigod is involved, there is no way to escape."

"The second place is the magic vortex. In that sea area, there is a lot of chaotic magic power. These magic powers form a destructive vortex. You can feel the powerful vortex from tens of nautical miles away. Magic power, if the distance is a little closer, it will even cause its own magic power to flow back."

The consequences of magic backflow are much more serious than blood backflow, and may even directly cause the body to explode. This is also one of the most primitive methods of self-destruction. Ryan nodded: "It is really dangerous."

Stevenson paused, forked a piece of fried golden fish meat, bit and swallowed it, then took a sip of the clear wine, took a long breath and continued:

"The third is called the psychedelic kingdom. According to legend, it is the kingdom of a certain ancient god. It usually appears suddenly on the sea in the image of a beautiful city, and it will suddenly disappear after a while. The duration varies. , but all the ships that have broken into its range have all disappeared into this world."

Such a description made Ryan think of a mirage. In a sense, this psychedelic country is indeed similar to a mirage, but most of the myths and legends in this world can be traced. Maybe this so-called psychedelic country is really a certain place. The kingdom of gods.

"Both the storm dilemma and the magic vortex have fixed sea areas. The first thing that all captains who sail on this ocean must learn is to write down these two locations and then avoid them."

"As for the Psychedelic Kingdom, although its location is not fixed, it will not take the initiative to attack. As long as you avoid it as soon as you see it, you can avoid accidents." Speaking of this, Stevenson suddenly laughed:

"But if the luck is extreme, there may also be an extreme situation, that is, when it appears, it just covers the surrounding of the ship. If this happens, there is no need to struggle."

In such a large ocean, even if a large ship like the Prince Lawrence is compared with the ocean, it is not much different from fallen leaves. It is indeed extremely unlucky for such a large ocean area to be stuck in the face of the psychedelic country.

"Well, I have a curious question." Ryan remembered the strange notice at the door of the ticketing company, and couldn't help asking: "What does the strange ship on the ticketing company's notice refer to?"

"That is a cursed fleet. It is said that in history, an expedition fleet once committed an unforgivable crime. They were cursed by the gods and could only drift endlessly on the sea. After so many years, the crew It’s all dead long ago, but the ship is still floating in the sea as if it’s brand new.”

Stevenson paused and reminded: "It usually doesn't touch our ships. As long as you restrain your desire when you see it, you can escape."

"Restrain your desire? Have you seen it?" Ryan was a little surprised. It sounded like Stevenson had seen this fleet before.

"I've seen it once. It seems to be able to evoke the deepest desire in the human heart. Everyone will see different things on that ship, but it is the deepest desire in everyone's heart." Stevenson's tone was a little mocking Laughing, seemed a bit unwilling: "There were more than 100 people on the whole ship that time, only less than 20 people returned to the shore with me, and the rest were all taken away by that ship."

Ryan nodded thoughtfully. From this point of view, the island on the announcement should also exist similarly.

As for the first point of magic in the announcement, it is best to understand. Stevenson mentioned when boarding the ship that this ship has the "heart of the ocean vortex" power system, which should be a magic alchemy creation in all likelihood. Using magic on board, it is indeed possible to destroy the power system.

"By the way." Ryan suddenly remembered what Mr. Sears said about his personal experience, and asked doubtfully, "Is this fleet the legendary ghost ship?"

"No." Stevenson shook his head and said, "The ghost ship is a legend, no one has seen it."

But Mr. Sears claimed to have seen the ship. Ryan glanced at Stevenson, who seemed to have no intention of continuing to explain.

In the icy cold wind, the two chatted for a while, and talked about the treasures on this ocean.

To Ryan's surprise, Stevenson laughed at those explorers who wanted to hunt for treasure in the ocean. This ocean is far more dangerous than it looks. Big question.

When there was not much food left, Ryan thought for a long time, but still calmed down, and did not take the initiative to ask his doubts.

From the moment he boarded the ship, Stevenson took the initiative to express his kindness to him. At first he thought it was the captain's personal habit and would greet every passenger, but after he observed carefully, Stevenson treated Others seem to be a little different from myself.

In addition, today's dinner is also very strange.

Even though he opened the door on his own initiative, Stevenson's invitation was a bit out of specification. This was the first time he had a supper worth hundreds of pounds, and 100 pounds was enough for an ordinary family in Layton for several years. The huge sum of money that could not be saved has now become fish soup on the table. The value of this supper alone has exceeded the boat ticket.

"Captain Stevenson, it's getting late." Ryan glanced at the position of the moon.

Stevenson pondered for a moment when he heard the words, then smiled and said, "It's really getting late, Mr. Dylan, I wish you a good dream tonight."

"For this beautiful evening." Ryan raised his glass.

"For a good night!" Stevenson echoed, laughing.

The two drank the liquid in the cup one after another, watching the waiter clear the table and sweep the deck.

On the way back to the cabin, Stevenson walked beside Ryan, and after sending Ryan to the door of the room, Stevenson suddenly smiled and said:

"Mr. Dylan, I heard that a genius recently appeared in the Dawn Church. He broke through to the third level at the age of less than 20. It seems that his surname is also Dylan."

"Yes, it's me."

Ryan's answer was so succinct that Stevenson, who was planning to continue talking, was taken aback for a moment.

"Mr. Dylan's reaction was a bit beyond my expectation. I thought you would hide it." Stevenson laughed and said curiously: "So this time, Mr. Dylan went to Timlenburg, really to take over Bishop?"

"Captain Stevenson, you are also a bit beyond my expectation. It seems that the news at sea is better than I thought." Ryan nodded and said: "I can answer you, the news is correct, but there is one thing that is not accurate place."

"Huh?" Stevenson's eyes lit up.

"The requirement to succeed the bishop is the fourth level, not the third level." Ryan smiled.

"Not the third level?" Stevenson stood there in a daze, wondering if he heard it wrong.

Although he didn't say it clearly, Ryan's words undoubtedly implied that he had broken through to the fourth level, but this was too incredible. He would rather believe that Ryan was defrauding him.

Stevenson frowned, wondering what Ryan meant.

"I wish you a good dream at night, Captain Stevenson." Ryan said no more, entered the cabin, and closed the door.

Across the South China Sea is Timlenburg. As the captain, Stevenson is no stranger to Timlenburg. Ryan, who should have thought of this, shook his head and looked sideways at the sea outside the window.

The brilliance of the silver moon has been completely swallowed by this ocean, and at a glance, nothing can be seen, only darkness.

"It's just, what does Stevenson mean to test me for the "bishops" of Timlenburg? Or..."

Ryan frowned and walked to the window of the living room. Standing here and looking up, he could ignore the darkness in front of him and see the gentle silver moon in the sky.

When he opened the window, the cold and humid sea breeze hit his face. The vast and boundless ocean and night sky seemed to merge into one, with no boundaries to be seen. If it wasn't for the slight flickering of the starry sky, it would even be difficult for people to tell where they were.

At this moment, Ryan seemed to have a certain feeling in his heart.

Tynenberg, Church of Tranquility.

Slightly flickering candlelight illuminates the side hall. In the center of the rows of seats sits a middle-aged man with blond hair and blue eyes. He is wearing a black student robe and gold-rimmed glasses, looking very elegant.

"Calculating the time, the bishop should be here soon."

The man murmured softly, whether he was talking to himself or someone, the voice echoed in the empty side hall and gradually disappeared.
wow~~
The sails were furled, and the Prince Lawrence sailed into Port Tessie.

It will replenish fresh water and food on this island, and set sail again the next morning.

After eating the scale turtle, Ryan spent three very leisurely, or three boring, days. On the first night, the vast sea made him realize. At that time, he was still a little excited, thinking that he was finally back It's an epiphany. It's a pity that I felt like I was close to the door, but nothing happened.

This kind of itching, looming feeling, caused him to not sleep well all night.

As for Stevenson, after meeting him the next morning, he greeted him as usual as if nothing had happened, and his attitude was the same as before. Well, it wasn't the same, and he was much more enthusiastic than before.

The scenery on the sea is amazing at first glance, but after a long time, it will become boring. The sea surface is the same, except for the flying fish and seabirds that occasionally jump out of the water, there is nothing else to see. This also makes Ryan completely lose his curiosity and even sense of the seascape. It's not as good-looking as the beach, at least there will be a little surprise on the beach after low tide every day.

Ryan, who was completely disappointed with the scenery on the sea, decided to go to the island to see the new scenery, try his luck, and see if he could find a chance to kick the door and enter the long-lost epiphany again.

Before disembarking, Stevenson called Ryan to order:
"Mr. Ryan, this island is safe, but be careful to stay away from the surrounding islands. Don't go to other islands without authorization. Also, the Prince Lawrence will set sail at eight o'clock tomorrow morning."

It seems that this is the place referred to in the second article of the notice "Prohibiting to log in to unknown islands without permission". Ryan nodded, indicating that he knew.

Saying goodbye to Stevenson, Ryan put on light clothes, left the cabin with a cane, and walked into Tessie port.
