Section 716 Shadow of the Ship

A day later, Ingres stood on the deck, looking out at the thick fog around him.

That's the little problem that Alwin and Helen are talking about: With the naked eye, visibility may not even be 100 meters, is it really okay in such a situation? Wouldn't it be disoriented?

In response to Angel's doubts, Helen replied with a smile: "My lord, please rest assured, almost every time we go to the Ferran Continent, we will take this route. At least the Conch has never been in danger here. This fog is just ordinary sea fog and does not affect the direction. ”

He himself sensed that the fog around him was indeed just an ordinary water vapor condensation phenomenon, but he didn't find anything abnormal. Coupled with the assurances of the professionals, Angels did not delve further, but returned to the inner cabin.

After Roman's death, the greatest advantage was that Angel could study illusions without any scruples.

However, instead of studying illusion today, he took out his codex and recorded the events of Liviatang as they were. When leaving Silver Palm that day, Angels sent Toby into the air to observe the island, and he himself used an eyesight-enhancing trick to look at Silver Palm.

Outwardly, there was nothing strange about Silver Palm, and so was the message Toby had gotten.

It's a little strange, why did the Livia Hall stay there for so long?

Ingres wrote several of his guesses in the codex, such as guarding treasures, being born by chance, hunting prey, recuperating from wounds, and even reproducing children, and Ingres listed them.

However, he did not know which one it was, or whether it was listed in Ingres.

After recording the events in Liviado, Ingres originally planned to use the tricks of the "True Fantasy School" to practice, but after hesitating for a while, he stopped again, took out a blank piece of paper, and began to write and draw.

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

On both sides of his black leather boots, white wings grew out, allowing him to fly in the air.

"I didn't expect his shoes to be flying vehicles, which is very interesting. ”

Angel calculated, directly using shoes as a flight basis, the speed is definitely not as fast as a professional flying vehicle, but it can save a lot of trouble, and if you encounter a battle, you can also have more tactical play.

He had been learning the art of tailoring and tailoring, and when he saw that he was happy, he also decided to use the existing materials to design a shoe that could carry the suspended magic pattern.

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

Three days of immersion passed.

During these three days, the Yunluo was still moving forward in the dense fog, as Helen said, the danger in this sea fog was very small, and the voyage was very smooth in these three days, not even the bad weather was encountered, only a few second-level apprentice-level sea beasts were encountered. Angel left the sea beasts to Toby to deal with, and he continued to design his own drawings.

Until this evening, while Ingres was still immersed in his own world, Toby suddenly flew into the house. With a cooing, he dragged Angels to the balcony.

"What's the matter? Are you encountering an invincible sea beast again?" Ingres asked Toby with a confused expression.

Toby didn't answer, instead waving his wings and pointing northwest.

Angel followed Toby's point, and at that glance, he frowned.

I saw that in the gray-white fog, the shadow of a ship faintly appeared.

Judging from the shadows, the ship is probably some distance away from the Yunluo, but even so, you can see its size. According to Ingres' visual estimates, it is at least ten times larger than the Yunluo.

"What kind of ship is this?" Ingres looked at it puzzled, could it be that there were other ships on this route? But this ship was too big, right? You must know that the Yunluo is already a large freighter, which is a rare size in any seaport. And this ship can be so many times bigger than the Yunluo, it is like a giant ship.

On that huge ship, you can faintly see a flag fluttering.

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 were obviously two directions.

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

At this moment, Ingres saw Helen on the deck below, who was directing the sailors to carry the barrels carrying the rainwater outside into the cabin.

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

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

Helen also looked over, and when she saw the shadow of the huge ship, she suddenly laughed: "My lord, judging from the shape of the ship, it is actually our Baibei shipping ship, but ...... It's just a phantom of time and space, not a real ship. ”

Ingres asked, "What do you say?"

"The previous section of this route connects this cogwheel abyss. Didn't I tell adults about the anomalies of the Gear Abyss, there are often ships that disappear into the Gear Abyss...... The shadows of the ships in the fog are actually the shadows of those ships. It's like a mirage, it's not real. When we pass through this fog area, we will encounter the shadow of a ship eight feet out of ten, but the type of ship is different, the size is different, and we have even encountered ancient ship shapes, so we call it a space-time phantom. ”

"From the standard, it can be seen that the ship is the ship of Baibei Shipping, and it may be a ship that has disappeared in the Gear Abyss in the past hundred years. The reason why it was built so big is that it is also a flying airship. Helen explained at this time, and sighed with emotion: "It is a pity that such a large ship is estimated to have died many people at that time." ”

After listening to Helen's explanation, Ingres was a little stunned.

"It turned out to be a phantom. No wonder Ingres felt something was wrong.

Ingres noticed that indeed the other sailors around him had strange expressions, and few of them paid attention to the shadows of the ships in the fog, apparently they knew what they were.

Helen: "The Devil's Sea is not only due to its harsh climate, but also to many of these strange phenomena. And most of them are not as safe as these ship shadows, and almost all of them have hidden killing intentions. Therefore, our maritime transportation has the meaning of existence, according to the experience of our predecessors, to open up a relatively safe shipping lane. ”

If you go to an unknown area at random, no one knows what you will encounter. This is the Devil's Sea, and if there is no one to guide you, you may be lost here forever.

The secrets of the Devil's Sea are too deep. At Ingres' current level, it is estimated that he is not even qualified to investigate.

Saying goodbye to Helen, Ingres is still very interested in the ship's illusion of time and space, which may be one of the illusions. But he didn't dare to observe it up close, and if he lost his way in the fog, it would be miserable.

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

As Ingres observes the shadow of the ship, he faintly notices that this illusion has a familiar feeling.

"It's kind of like a mirage made by Erdes. Ingres came to this conclusion after smacking it carefully. Could it be that there is actually a super sea mussel similar to Odes in the vicinity?

Ingres leaned against the railing and looked down at the sea.

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

If it really is a mussel that resembles Edus, how big must it be? After all, these apparitions are ships that have disappeared into the Cogwheel Abyss, which is a long way from the Cogwheel Abyss.

Angel shuddered and didn't think much more. Sometimes, people's fear of the unknown comes completely from unfounded brain supplements.

After some more time, the shadow of the great ship finally disappeared into the fog, and Angel returned to the bedroom with regret.

Two days later, Ingres was again on the way to design the artwork when he was brought out by Toby.

"Boat shadow again?" Ingres looked at the faint shadow in the sea fog, and sighed helplessly, compared to these boat shadows who couldn't figure out the vein, he actually wanted to go back and continue to design the "flying boots", he had designed it to the last moment, and he wanted to discuss the appearance with Nano and try to refine it at night.

Now that he was dragged out by Toby, Angel followed his wishes and observed the shadow that appeared in front of him.

Judging from the shadows, the ship is about the same size as the Conch, but there is nothing special about the others.

Ingres wanted to be perfunctory, so he went back to his room to continue designing the drawings, but at this moment, his brow suddenly furrowed. Because he noticed that something was wrong, the ship had been standing still, because the Yunluo was moving, so the ship was getting closer and closer.

The last time they encountered, the huge shadow of the ship, but it kept a certain distance, and no matter how the Yunluo moved, there was no sign of approaching.

"If you keep sailing, you will definitely meet this ship's shadow. Ingre's eyes lit up, and he also wanted to get a closer look at the illusion to determine if it was a mirage.

But while Ingres was paying attention, the sailors on deck were in a commotion.

They all pointed to the ship in the fog with incredible expressions.

While Angel was still confused, Alwyn suddenly heard a message from the command room: "There is a ship ahead, everyone is on guard." ”

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

While Ingres was puzzled, the Conch moved closer and closer to the strange and still shadow of the ship.

For the unknown, Ingres still has an attitude of awe. He directly took off the glove of his right hand and unleashed a large illusion spell that obscured the Conch.

No matter what the ship is, it's only right to take care of yourself first.

Just in time, the Conch finally came into the ship's visual range.

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