Chapter 4： This ocean is too fantastic

quickly rescued the two people who fell into the water, and then asked if there were any survivors? After receiving a negative answer, Ethan quickly turned the bow and moved away from the sea as quickly as possible.

His boat is too small, although there is still a certain distance from the storm's range, only the aftermath has made him feel that his boat can capsize at any time.

It wasn't until the drive was so far that the waves were getting smaller, and Ethan was a little relieved. Looking back and seeing the storm did not seem to move here, he had the time to look at the two people who were rescued—one of them was slightly noticeable. The skinny man was in his forties, and his handsome face had been carved with the traces of years; the other man was about thirty years old, just when he was young and vigorous, and his whole body showed all the tendon flesh because his clothes were soaked. This is also proven.

"Thank you very much for your life-saving grace."

The older man drank a few sips of water and immediately thanked him, and then handed the wooden spoon in his hand to the person next to him.

It can be seen that both of them are old sailors. They are very careful when drinking water, lest it be wasted, even if the danger has just been turned into a breeze, I don’t know how long it has not been drinking water.

"you are welcome."

Waiting for the other person to finish drinking the water, Ethan took the wooden spoon back and put it away, and then asked what happened to the two people.

The two are indeed old sailors. The elder is called Wood and the younger is Rodney. They have been in this area for several years, and they have some wealth.

Wood has a decent sailing boat in his hand, and there are a few good helpers around him. Several of them have been busy on this sea for several years, and finally made up their minds a few days ago: to cross the sea of ​​storms and go to new seas.

Until this time, Ethan learned the magic of this world from Wood.

What kind of world this world looks like is not yet clear. Although Wood has been on the sea for several years, he only knows that the ocean under his feet is called the calm sea, which is a relatively ‘peaceful’ sea.

How big is the calm sea? Wood doesn't know, only knows it's great! But he was very sure that the calm sea was not infinite.

Just around the calm sea, there are endless torrential storms, lightning, thunder and lightning, surrounding the calm sea like a wall. These stormy areas surrounded by the sea of ​​calm are called the sea of ​​storms by everyone.

Compared with the closer to the edge, the more dangerous it is, and the closer to the center of the calm sea, the safer it is. There are no strong winds and waves, and there are abundant seafood. Those who have sailed on the sea for many years only need to ensure that there is sufficient drinking water and food does not need to worry too much.

"Even if you can't find the island, you can find enough food from the sea, enough to support us back to the State Island to replenish supplies."

As for Ethan has always been puzzled about the issue of the island, not to mention the island after he went out to sea, he has not even seen a reef.

In this regard, Wood said that although it is magical and unbelievable, the most magical thing about the calm sea is these islands that suddenly appear and disappear.

"They may pop up suddenly, and in a short time they will be covered with various plants and fruits, and then these plants will wither and die suddenly, and they will no longer be seen as the whole island sinks to the bottom of the sea."

These are said to suddenly emerge from the bottom of the sea, and then become islands full of lush vegetation and fruits in a short time. They exist for different lengths of time. Hearing Wood said that the shortest time he has ever seen existed for only a few days, and then it would sink. Disappeared in the bottom of the sea.

It is said that in the entire calm sea, only State Island is an unsinkable island, and its area is not small, almost becoming the center of all people living in this sea.

Except for the State Island, there are only a few small islands in a few places, and they are far apart from each other. Ethan lived before is one of them.

"So, those people who used to go to sea on outlying islands all went to this big island called State?"

Unfortunately, Wood soon gave a negative answer.

"It's a pity that although the State Island is not small, it can't accommodate so many people. There are very few people who can settle on the island for a long time. Most people still have to venture out on the sea to find a living, relying on finding the islands that suddenly appear. , Collect the above materials in exchange for what you need to sustain your life."

Wood looked at Ethan: "Young man, you should have just left your hometown..."

"Yes!" Ethan briefly introduced himself, but he skipped most of the content. He only said that his parents had passed away and he didn't want to stay, so he came out to make trouble.

As soon as he said this, he noticed that Rodney, who had not made a sound, showed a surprised look of "this product is mentally retarded", but he quickly controlled his expression, if it weren't for Ethan's cultivation spirit these days Force makes the senses slightly strengthened, I am afraid I will not find it yet.

Wood smiled and said: "Young people are very courageous, but although this calm sea looks good, it’s not a wonderful life to wander on the sea for many years looking for islands that suddenly appeared out of nowhere. ."

As for persuading Ethan to stop dreaming and hurry home and live a lifetime, I didn’t say anything. Maybe you have seen too many young people with dreams?

"On those islands, what are there to collect?"

I finally understood what this world is like. Although Ethan felt a little bit nonsense, but I ran into it when I passed through, and he still had a magic pointer in his hand, so it wouldn't be a big deal if the world was strange.

"Food, minerals, wood...As long as you can move, almost everything you can see can be collected and sent to State Island in exchange for the materials you need, you can even order ships, recruit sailors, etc..."

Ethan understood that everything that can be found is useful. After all, in a world full of oceans, it can be said that everything is lacking, and naturally everything is useful.

State Island, like a town in online games, helps adventurers transform the resources they find into what they need and then sell them back, maintaining the survival of everyone here in this way.

"It seems that there should still be quite powerful rulers on this island." Without absolute power, it is impossible for everyone to act in accordance with the rules set by him.

Wood continued to teach Ethan, a rookie newcomer, and the basic common sense about the calm sea was stuffed into Ethan's brain.

He finally knew that this world really didn't have the concept of southeast, northwest, and the way they distinguished the direction was the direction of the sun rising and setting.

"We now sail in the direction where the sun rises and we can reach State Island. If you really want to eat at sea, then I suggest you go to the Voyager Guild to apply for membership when you arrive on the island."

"what is that?"

Following Wood's explanation, Ethan has a deeper understanding of the world.

The Voyagers Guild provides some conveniences for adventurers who eat at sea, such as providing basic food, clothing, housing and transportation; helping to store materials that are not easy to dispose of for a while, or selling these materials on behalf of them; at the same time, it also provides an open Trading platform; in addition, personal property can also be stored in the personal account of the Voyagers Guild, etc.

At the same time, the guild will also give adventurers some convenience, such as giving priority to some rare materials, and even giving priority to helping guild members repair or build ships.

"And when you have a good enough crew in your hand and a good ship strong enough, then you can try the safest route through the sea of ​​storms, reach new seas, and head toward the legendary endless The land is one step closer..."

Wood said before, that he and his friends only tried to overcome the sea of ​​storms when they realized that they had enough strength. Starting from State Island and sailing straight in the direction of the sun setting is the safest route in the Sea of ​​Storms.

is just the safest route, and it's just relative to crossing the sea of ​​storms from other locations-this route has small storms, weak waves and no lightning and thunder.

Obviously, Wood failed. Fortunately, they haven't gotten far into the sea of ​​storm, so he and Rodney also saved their lives, and insisted on being rescued by Ethan.

After talking for a long time, Wood just leaned there and fell asleep. He and Rodney persisted in the sea for a long time, and their physical strength had already reached their limit. UU reading www.uukanshu.cóm

It was only the extreme excitement and joy that made him in a state of excitement after being rescued, and he was able to say a lot of things to Ethan. When this energy was over, the fatigue came up uncontrollably, he couldn't hold on anymore, and just slept like a dead pig.

Rodney slept very hard, even if he curled up and couldn't stretch out, he didn't mean to wake up because of his discomfort.

The small wooden boat was already full of things, and now there were three people squeezed into it. After looking at it, Ethan decided to sit by the rudder and leaning on a pile of sundries for the night.

The indispensable lesson of the defensive heart kept him awake, and he didn't dare to let go of his sleep, so he simply sailed through the night for the reason of hurrying, just took the time to close his eyes and rest for a while.

The next few days were fairly calm, Ethan remained vigilant at all times, and Wood and Rodney seemed to be harmless. Wood still popularized Ethan some basic common sense, and Rodney was still so taciturn. The three men in a small boat went straight to the largest unsinkable island in the calm sea: State Island.

The boat found a place in the prosperous port of State Island and stopped, and finally set foot on the ground again. The three people formally bid farewell.

"The kindness of life-saving is difficult to return, Ethan, if you need me in the future, you can leave me a message in the guild and tell it to the Captain of the Swordfish Wood."

Most people in this world don’t seem to have surnames, so in order to avoid making mistakes by duplicating names, they will deliberately add extra notes. The navigation guild’s method is to distinguish them according to the registered ship names.

"There is still this thing for you, as the money for meals these days." As he said, Wood took out a small red stone and stuffed it into Ethan's hand: "This is a fire magic stone, which should be treated to you. Some use."
