The Defeated Dragon

Chapter 792: The Great Vortex at Sea (1st Preliminary)

“Your Highness, can you take me and my sister while you and Teacher Archer explore the new islands?” Ruth asked with her cute big eyes open.

Lucy hurriedly scolded: "Ruth, don't make rude requests to Your Highness! ”

Ruth, though a little bold, dared not resist her sister, but bowed to Lister in condescension: “I'm sorry, Your Highness, Ruth is too reckless to ask for your forgiveness. ”

Lester waved, “Don't be nervous, Lucy, Ruth. If your teacher Archer doesn't refuse, there's nothing you can't do with him.” With two lovely little Lori on the voyage, it's also a fun thing to admire, not to mention their ability to manipulate the demon.

Therefore, from Tortoise Island to investigate how the "tortoise individual mutated into a thunderbolt tortoise” project, the two sisters' requests were quickly accepted.

At Lester's behest, she had received Lucy and Rose as her own magic apprentices - and there was no objection to that from the twins' former teacher, Chris Truth, even though she was very envious of the twins and was ready to listen to their teachings.

Absolutely.

Chris actually thought too much, and Archer was nominally a twin teacher, but privately he had no idea of teaching at all. She only likes to study magic herself, or assign research tasks to magicians, and does not like to communicate with others, let alone teach.

The magician came to teach the magic apprentice, and he was too small to teach, and any ordinary magician of the Magic Guild could complete the teaching.

“Thank you, sir. Thank you, Your Highness.” The twins cheered with excitement.

Lister nodded: "Go pack your bags and we'll be ready to go.” His voyage with Archer was to walk away without dragging any mud.

At this time.

In a jade box hanging from the roof, Nami sounded a little weak: “Mumble. ”

It flew out of the box and landed on Archer's palm. Poor Baba looked at Archer. Instead of going out to work for a while, he stayed in the lab and waited for Archer's return to seek the care of the covenant owner. At this time, its expression is still gambling with evolutionary impediments.

Archer held Nami in his hand and smiled: "Don't worry, Nami, Archer will take you with him. We will explore the new world in the newly discovered archipelago of our brother. ”

“Mumble.” Nami rubbed Archer's finger with his head and punched him to sleep with satisfaction.

One day later.

Lester arranged things around him and Archer handed over the busy magic experiments one by one before leaving for the new islands.

Boom!

Hualala!

“Ocean, let's go!” The twins stood on the bow and shouted delightfully.

Before they came to Black Horse Island, they were slave children from the countryside of the Kingdom of the Eagle and had never seen the sea in their entire lives.

Coming to Black Horse Island to live, sailing is a frequent occurrence, and fear of the sea has long been overcome, only to dare to swim in the sea.

Flames filled with fruit, vegetables, magic and other supplies, wind and waves along planned routes, speeding up to 500 km/h.

The new archipelago is about 4,000 kilometres from Black Horse Island - roughly the most northern Bohai in China and the most southerly South Sea, according to Earth data.

The average sailing speed of a fast sailboat at the Palace is around 10 knots, or 18 km/h, and can sail up to 400 km/h on a windward day. The Sapphire family relies on the court's fast sailing boats to dominate the Biebo Sea, but the sea is windless and windless, so it can sail up to 200 km a day.

From Black Horse Island to the New Islands, the Court's fast sailing boat alone takes twenty days to arrive, and it would probably take two months to replace it with one of those three-knot merchant boats, or with a smooth voyage.

However.

For the Flame, there is no so-called headwind, smooth wind, and no wind. Acura controls the water tornado and drives directly to the sea. Eight hours later, he had arrived at the location recorded in the nautical charts, and Lester called out Little Dragon Leo and flew between the blue sky and the white cloud to search the land.

The search went smoothly, taking only 15 minutes to find the island - and that is why the accuracy of the nautical charts is increasing.

Acura has been studying astrology for a long time, and combines telescope technology to develop a set of devices that can measure the angle between the sun or other stars and the sea level and the ground plane, and has also written a book entitled "Azimuthal Light Measurement of Stars in Navigation" to guide the application of the device.

After seeing this device, Lester grabbed the right to name it: “Just call it a sextant!” In fact, it's the Hexadecipher of the Divergent.

With a six-dimeter, the position of the vessel can be measured more accurately during navigation.

Essentially disconnected from sailing, the fleet from the flame collar is a daytime and evening six-degree meter, and only looks at the sailing compass during the shady days - a compass like device, but also fixedly pointed in one direction, but not in the north-south direction, but in the north-west direction of the 15-degree angle.

There is no theoretical explanation as to why it points in this direction.

“Archer, head for 195 degrees, the island is ahead!” As soon as we found the island, Lester contacted Archer —— and “195 degrees” was invented by Lester, who combined the cruise compass to divide the azimuthal coordinates into 360 degrees, clearly indicating each direction.

195 degrees is just a little bit southwest.

This invention stems from the game Jedi Survival: The Great Escape, which he played on Earth, with 360-degree directions that give his teammates convenient directions.

However, the Flame is not yet close to the island.

Lucy and Ruth screamed out loud: "Your Highness, the teacher, a message from the demon station found that the unknown whirlpool was being swallowed up by the whirlpool, calling for help! ”

Archer immediately said: "Coordinates, orientation! ”

When the twins report the location of the Discovery, the Flame immediately turns and rushes towards the sea where the Discovery is located. Along the way, the demonic communication was maintained. The Discovery was still struggling. The Discovery and Opportunity numbers were very far away and could not be rescued at all. They had to wait for the Flame.

It's just very unfortunate that when Archer constantly corrected the orientation and eventually arrived near that big swirl, the signal of the discovery signal had disappeared on the stage.

“Your Highness, Teacher...” Lucy said sadly, "No sign of the Discovery Station can be searched. ”

Lester walked to the bow deck of the Flame in a bad mood, but he consoled himself: “It is inevitable that adventures at sea will come to pass, they are all pioneers in nation-building and the new nation will not forget their credit.” His eyes rose and he looked at the whirlpool as if it could be swallowed by heaven and earth.

With an arc controlling the water tornado, the Flame slowly approached the Great Vortex.

This is a huge swirl that cannot see the margins, even the water fixation beads cannot affect its operation. The sea level of the swirl leans all the way to a distant center point, dark and dark, almost invisible to the depths leading to the bottom of the sea.
