He didn't care if Loki had Kathleen with him now. He was already fascinated by this scene that he had only seen on television in the past.
Roche walked to the bow of the boat and looked out over the sea. At this moment, more and more aristocratic ladies and young masters came. A crowd of young girls and young men crowded around Kathleen. Kathleen also looked at Loki through the crowd from time to time.
She knew what he was up to, but he hadn't asked her about the case, or even about her.
Loki was looking at the sea. The sea scenery made him feel very familiar. The blue ocean reminded him of the familiar scene in his heart. Only the sea would give him a feeling, after all the sea here was no different from earth. Although there were no seagulls, there were still different seabirds hanging low above the sea. They would occasionally glide along the waves, emitting cheerful chirps. After a while, the boat started sailing. There was a 'creak' sound coming from inside the boat. The sea breeze blew the canvas of the boat, and the sound of the hands starting to move together could be heard. The boat left a long trail of water behind it, indicating that it was moving farther and farther away from the harbor.
All of this gave Roche an inexplicable sense of excitement. The excitement made him forget the time he had been standing, when an old man came up to Roche, and the vicissitudes of his face showed that he was very old.
However, his steps were very agile, and the shaking of the boat didn't affect his footsteps at all.
With a fishing rod in one hand and a bucket in the other, he walked up to Loki. Without a word to Loki, he dropped the bait and stood beside him.
The old man's hook brought Roche out of his reverie. He suddenly remembered what he had come here for, and turned to walk back to Kathleen, who was still chatting on the deck.
Walking to the front of the crowd surrounding Kathleen, Loki ignored the others and said directly to Kathleen, "Miss Kathleen, are you free?" "Let's talk alone."
Kathleen hadn't expected that, in front of so many people, Loki would ask so directly for a private chat. This is very unreasonable for aristocratic society. He had been rude more than once before.
Kathleen laughed. She felt a peculiar feeling about this rude aristocrat, Kathleen. His way of doing things was unfathomable.
Before Kathleen could reply, a young noble at the side rushed to say, "I don't know who you are. You're just a Knight. I don't blame you for not being polite, but what right do you have to call the beautiful Miss Kathleen alone? This is all about the political and military affairs of the Empire, and I'm sure you won't be interested in that. The beautiful Miss Kathleen can only admire the talented.
Alexandra said, "If you're interested, I can talk to you."
Kathleen quickly said, "Mr. Lodge, I can't leave now. Can we have some time later?" Or you can come and talk with us. "
He knew it was impossible to talk to Kathleen alone now. To talk to them about political and military matters? Even more so since Loki would not do such a thing, Loki replied, "Alright then, you guys can continue. I went around. "
The young noble looked at Loki with disdain.
Kathleen was a little disappointed, but she wanted Rocky to talk to them.
Usually the men she had met before had shown their talents in front of her, even Ike Arbeiter, who knew it was impossible to be with Kathleen.
Loki's retreat also showed that Loki didn't have any feelings for her, which made Kathleen doubt her charm for the first time.
Luo Qi gloomily returned to the bow of the ship. He realized that it was very likely that he had come for nothing today. Forget it, let's play first and find another opportunity, thought Loki.
After returning to the bow, Loki looked at the old fisherman for the first time. He paced back and forth and the old man pretended he didn't exist. He stood there motionlessly, waiting for the fish to bite him.
Although the old man didn't have any symbol of nobility, he was wearing a long silk robe that ordinary nobles couldn't afford.
Loki walked over to where he had been standing, then said to the old man, "My name is Loki. Would you like to meet me?"
The old man then turned his head to look at Loki, and with a single glance, he returned to his original position.
But he said, "I'm the captain here. What do you want to talk about?"
Loki did not think he would disturb his fishing. The waves were louder here than when they were talking.
Loki said, "Hello sir, it's like this. I saw that our ship was always sailing not far from the coast, so why not go into the deep sea and take a look? I think the scenery there will be even more charming. "
Without looking back, the old man smiled and said, "Is this your first trip to the sea?" "Yes," Roche replied.
The old man maintained his fixed posture and continued, "In the deep sea, the appearance of giant sea beasts is not safe. Because giant sea beasts like to immerse their bodies in the sea water, they appear in the deep sea. The coast of the sea was a shallow sea, so giant sea beasts could not hide their bodies in the shallow water. Gigantic sea beasts would not come if they did not like being exposed to the sun's rays. So all voyages are not very far from the coast. If we're lucky, we can still see them. The Sea race is still in the deep sea. They won't let the ship sail on the sea safely. But they don't dare to come to the shore either. "
Loki asked curiously, "Why is that?" Are all the Sea Clan's people weak? " The old man's words aroused Luo Qi's great interest.
The old man continued, "No, they are very powerful, stronger than ordinary humans. But they are constrained by a mysterious power, such as the dragon race and other races are also stronger than us. However, that mysterious force controlled the survival of the various races, protecting the weak ones. As long as they are not destroyed, they will not appear. "
"Are you talking about God?"
The old man's posture did not change as he replied, "No, they are not gods. However, to us, they are existences akin to gods. This is not something you can know, so don't ask. "
Luo Qi felt that this continent wasn't as simple as he had imagined. It was far more mysterious than he had imagined.
The old man did not allow Roche to ask any more questions, and it caused Roche to fall into another round of silence.
Loki looked at the old man. He didn't think this old man was simple. For this old man to maintain a fishing posture for such a long time was not something an ordinary person could do.
Moreover, Loki did not discover that he was using any power that could be felt by Loki. The physical strength of the old man surprised Roche.
