This chapter rewards and adds to the Alliance Leader's "Glorious Battle Song", temporarily more, and later makes up for thirteen more.
————
There are four islands around Black Horse Island.
Mangrove Island, Beach Island, Turbulent Stone Island and Seagull Island. Mangrove Island is home to Nami, with many green caterpillars and green-headed ducks; Beach Island is home to many coconut trees and is also grafted with coconut worm grass; Seagull Island is also home to a mangrove of mangroves, but has not yet been developed.
And Stone Island, has always been neglected.
Since the island is full of basalt columns and was mined once, no volcanic glass was found buried beneath the island, so it was completely abandoned.
Standing on the island's basalt columns, Lister carefully identifies the surrounding position, then locates the position guided by Archer, then rides the seven-colored whale Rose again and swims towards the sea over there. Diving to the bottom of the ocean, you can see that the island is full of rocks and not much sludge.
Many corals attach to rocks, forming coral reefs.
A variety of fish and shrimp live on coral reefs.
Lester's magic eyes spread. As Rose swam, she searched the ocean floor constantly, hoping to find the golden lipstick, but could she have some more surprises?
Pity.
The sea looks infinite and vast, but there are not many objects with magical light, and even the number of sea monsters is far less than the warcraft on land.
So after half a day of swimming, there was no magic.
By the time he discovered the light of the magical feedback, he had also entered the living area of Golden Lipstick, not far from Stone Island. However, the reef area, which is already far from the seabed, belongs to a sludge area with a depth of about 100 metres or so, and the water pressure is already high and breathing becomes difficult.
But after all, Lester was strong, he had tested with colorful whales, and without protection, he could reach the limit by diving 400 metres. As for the colorful whale Rose, according to Archer, Rose can dive to a depth of 1,500 meters, which is the limit of Archer's dive.
Normally, Rose swims within 200 meters of the sea.
“It is a big piece of golden lipstick, unfortunately I don't have much fighting power underwater, otherwise I really want to open a few more golden lipsticks and take out a bunch of golden pearls for research.” Lester tells Rose to swim around, don't intrude on Golden Lipstick's territory, "let Archer grab the pearl later. ”
A moment of observation, he found the largest head of the golden lipstick, basically the size of the basin that Archer had brought home. The number is about several hundred or more, and the area of distribution is not very large.
There is no value in continuing to observe.
He touched Rose's stomach, indicating that he was leaving, not returning to Flowertown, but swimming to Black Horse Island. After disembarking, Rose was instructed to wait a little while before switching to a horse and rushing to the Mage's Tower. Give Chris the golden pearl and let her study the nature.
This brings us back to Flower Town.
However, when I first arrived at the beach of the town, I suddenly found a few white things floating on the surface of the sea, a little like a human skull from afar.
He stared and quickly managed Rose to rush towards the white float.
It's not a human skull, it's some kind of white, fruity thing.
“Fruit? ”
“Was it the drifting fruit of the smoke mission prompt?” Quickly picking up one of the fruits, it turns out that there is indeed a head size, and indeed a fruit, which immediately reminds him of some slightly impressive fruit, "seems to be, like, a skull fruit from an old tannery? ”
Call for smoke missions.
The task has been accomplished.
“Complete the task to reward drifting human skull fruit. ”
“Indeed, these are the fruits of the human skull, the fruits of the tree of the human skull. The old tannery said that he lived on Dodo Island when he was a child, and that the natives were hungry by eating human skull fruit.” Lester remembers well and has an impression of the dialogue two years ago.
At this point, the smoky snake text in front of us has changed.
“Mission: Whether the discovery of human skull fruit reminds you of the memory of the volcano that erupted and destroyed the island, the old tannery no longer remembers the location of the crossing island, but it should be not far from here, why not find it. Reward: The volcano on Dodo Island. ”
“Mmm.”
“The volcano on Dodo Island? ”
Lester suddenly recalled that old Leatherman Phil had said that Watanabe was the result of a volcanic eruption that destroyed a large number of human skull trees, leaving the island's indigenous people without food sources.
So the indigenous people cut down trees, made canoes, and turned their backs.
The author of Philip Sundescendant's Journal was on a canoe with the old tannery. Unfortunately, Philip himself accidentally fell into the water while catching fish, leaving only one diary to be kept as a souvenir by the old tannery and eventually flowing into Lester's hands.
“I didn't expect that the volcano on Dodo Island, which erupted just decades ago, might still erupt! ”
Little firedragons have been lacking a volcanic environment, and Lester has asked about many of the islands of the Grand Duchy of Sapphire, none of which are active volcanoes that erupt at any time. Those active volcanoes, previously recorded as eruptions, were all on large, distant islands, and Lester could never make it.
“Didn't expect the smoke mission to directly reward the volcano on Dodo Island, does that mean that the volcano is an active volcano and is likely to find lava from its mouth? ”
Active volcanoes do not mean lava, which is essentially the vast majority of volcanoes and can only be seen when erupting. Usually those magma and high temperatures are hidden dozens of kilometres deep underground. Dodo Island Volcano does not know if lava can be seen, but it is at least an opportunity.
If nothing else, it is worthwhile to go for the island itself.
Desolate islands are a burden for many lords and have no open value, but for Lester, every inch of land is available.
“I have to be prepared to take the time to find Dodo Island. ”
……
Two magicians are waiting in the castle.
The names Garcia Truth and Randolph Truth, respectively, are ordinary magicians, young and of limited potential, who would otherwise not have chosen teachers as careers.
Of course, Chris Truth, the Great Magician, was one of the factors they applied for.
After all, it is not common to be given the opportunity to exchange the truth with the Great Magician.
“Having accepted their candidatures, they have accepted the regulations governing the island of Black Horse, provided that they do not violate the provisions of the illegal regulations and are free in the territory. At the same time, someone will be responsible for organizing your life and living, so you don't have to worry about anything... I wish you a happy life on Black Horse Island. ”
“Thank you, Lord Viscount, rest assured that we are all well-documented magicians and will not violate the territorial ban. ”
Simple reception with two people sailing to Black Horse Island.
Lister then asked the servant to find Phil the old tannery, Phil's tannery shop had not moved to Port Town, where he had lived half his life and was reluctant to move again. Even though Jesse, the servant, was not taken as his son, he married a middle-aged widow and his life was getting better.
But his wife was not pregnant, and the blood of the Son of the Sun had to be taken from old Phil.
“Old Phil, how much do you remember about Dodo Island? ”
“My lord, I was very young when I left Dodo Island, and I couldn't tell the direction when I was drifting in the canoe. But I've heard Philip mention that 800 kilometers south of Dodo is the island where he works, Hot Springs Island. I also drifted south, eventually to Hot Springs Island.” The old tannery replied.
Hot Springs Island is about a day's voyage west of Coral Island and is the territory of an Earl.
So the position of Watanabe is about north of Hot Springs Island and Coral Island, but you can't tell exactly where it is.
Just 800 km away.
800 kilometers by boat takes about two and a half days, and 10 hours by colorful whale Rose.
Lester Murmer calculates: “Not too far away, I can ride Rose, take Archer, look carefully in the 800 miles north of Hot Springs Island... Archer has learned a lot about navigation, she can discern directions, should not get lost. ”
Thinking about it, he sent away the old tannery and went straight to the beach house to find Archer.
“Archer, I got a message that there's a ferry island 800 kilometers north of Hot Springs Island, and I want to go find it with you. Can you tell the direction at sea? ”
Archer put aside the "Triangular Theory and Magic Array Structure Unified Argument" and nodded: “Well, Archer has learned to navigate the guidebook, and will also identify the orientation through the stars, and Archer himself remembers the way in the sea, you will not get lost in the sea. ”
“Yes, you are a sea monster, a sea elf, and naturally you will not get lost.” Lister immediately decided, "So you're ready, and the day after tomorrow we'll go looking for Dodo Island. ”
