Chapter 450 The Beautiful Island
This sea area does have all kinds of extreme climate changes. It was sunny just a moment ago, and it may become sub-zero after basking in the sun, and it is also accompanied by violent snowstorms.
Everyone has just experienced an extreme temperature change, but this change is slowly changing, the greater the temperature change, the longer it will take.
I have never encountered a situation where the temperature changed from tens of degrees below zero to more than 20 degrees above zero in the blink of an eye. This feeling is like walking out of a low-temperature freezer, and the sun is shining outside midsummer season.
"Eugen, adjust your direction and go around the island."
This weird situation can't be ignored. Ethan asked Prince Eugen to sail around the island. In addition to looking at the island with the naked eye, he also scanned the surrounding sea area.
The island is not small, but it is not big when it is big. Even if it is a considerable distance from the island, it will not take much time to go around a big circle.
Logan and the others didn't bother Ethan, Mr. Captain seemed to be thinking about some difficult problem.
Maria Hill was doing her own work at this time, checking all the environmental data outside - the snow on the Prinz Eugen had already melted, as if the blizzard she experienced just now was just an illusion.
It made everyone think it was a hallucination, and where is the sea area they passed through before, and they seemed to be lost after they circled around?
If it is not possible to use the island as a reference, everyone looks almost exactly the same when looking around - of course, it is also the same at ordinary times. Looking in any direction on the sea, there is endless sea water.
But this time was different, Ethan always felt that the ocean around the island had a weird feeling.
"Eugen, adjust the direction and leave directly, we are not close to this island anymore!"
This kind of feeling is not good. Ethan is not a character who likes to use his curiosity in places where it shouldn't be used. All kinds of weird situations made him decide to stay away from this island, even though he is powerful and has countless others. As a means of saving his life, he is not interested in going up to see what is so special about this island?
Everyone has no objection to Ethan's decision. No one here is so curious that he knows that it is troublesome and wants to go up. Even Evelyn will not do it if there are no ancient cultural relics to attract her. What an act of death.
Everyone felt that leaving this weird island was the right choice. Anyway, there were enough resources on board, and they didn't need to stop to replenish food and fresh water. The only thing they should do was to move on and cross the stormy sea.
However, when Prince Eugen adjusted its course and sailed away from the island for several hours, and seemed to be far away from the island, the Prince Eugen suddenly indicated that it had found an island exactly like the one before.
"Intercept the holographic image of the island and compare it with the previous island."
Ethan looked at the beautiful island not far ahead, and then looked back at the comparison result of the holographic image: the 'new island' was exactly the same as the one he encountered before, and there was almost no difference in any data.
"Don't stop, go around the island, and then continue sailing forward."
At this time, everyone realized something, and sat quietly in their seats watching the holographic image.
After the Prinz Eugen made an arc on the sea, it bypassed the new island in front of it, and continued to sail far away.
All had a hunch that they would soon be able to see the island again.
Sure enough, no one was surprised when islands appeared on the sea level again.
Ethan didn't speak all the time, just sat on the captain's seat, then silently looked at the distant island, and finally showed a helpless expression.
"I felt a strange fluctuation before, and now I can be sure."
Ethan spread his hands.
"We're stuck in a space maze."
The so-called space maze is that there seems to be nothing, but you think you are moving forward, but after you take the next step, the direction of progress changes from north to south.
In Ethan's view, the sea area around the island is full of this kind of maze, so that no matter how the Prinz Eugen sails, it ends up heading towards the island.
In addition, the surroundings on the sea seem to be the same, and it is almost impossible for people to notice a sudden change in the direction of navigation. It is simply a perfect space maze.
As for the space maze, Ethan himself is also very good at using it. Thor, the god of thunder, suffered from this aspect back then.
In addition, the mages of Karma Taj are also very good at distorting the space, breaking and reorganizing the entire space casually, creating a similar space maze - but ordinary mages can only do it in the mirror space At this point, a powerful mage like Gu Yi can cast this kind of spell in the real world.
In the face of this ability, it is not difficult to find a solution.
Use the energy of similar nature to disturb the energy of the interference space and you can get out.
Or simply use brute force to break or disperse the energy affecting the space, then this area can also return to normal, and naturally you can leave.
With Ethan's strength, he can do both ways, but he doesn't want to leave now.
If it was any other situation, he wasn't interested yet, but the space energy was enough to attract his attention.
In addition, after traveling through the 'space maze' several times, he even felt a trace of the power of time.
Tell everyone about your discovery, and tell everyone that you will go to the island ahead to find out who, what creature, or what object released these powers.
"Are you going to land on that island?"
"Yes."
Ethan nodded. The island in front of him was a bit weird. He didn't plan to let anyone accompany him, and he was going to check the situation alone.
"Maybe I need to bring Xiao Ou."
Xiao Ou has the ability to sense and detect the location of the magic stone and the magic heart. According to past experience, these special abilities are likely to be released by some kind of powerful magic heart. Bringing Xiao Ou may be able to find the target faster.
But Ethan didn't want to take anyone with him. It didn't mean that everyone was willing to stay on the boat and wait for him to come back. Almost everyone wanted to land with Ethan.
"Aren't you afraid of danger?"
Logan took out a cigar casually, and was just about to light it, but after looking at the surrounding women or children, and it was in a closed room, he finally held back, just held it in his hand, and occasionally picked it up to smell it.
"For us today, is there any real danger in this sea area?"
This is true. With the current strength of everyone present, there is probably nothing in this sea area that can threaten everyone's lives.
The fear I expressed about this island before was not because I was afraid, but simply because I was too lazy to deal with these troubles: human beings are not afraid of mosquitoes, flies and other insects, but it does not mean that they are allowed to stay with themselves, because they will feel uncomfortable. annoying.
"You all want to go?"
Everyone nodded together, and even Hill said: "Although I think someone should stay on the Prinz Eugen, I also want to see what caused these special situations."
Anyway, Prince Eugen itself is equipped with an intelligent system, so there is no need to worry that someone will sneak up and drive the boat away after everyone leaves.
After everyone leaves, the Prinz Eugen can turn on the 'stealth' mode, and people in this world may not even be able to detect a huge steel warship parked on the sea.
"How do we get there?"
The island is surrounded by shallow water, and Prince Eugen cannot approach it.
There are hidden reefs and countless shipwrecks underwater, so the Prinz Eugen can only stop at a distance.
"Take a Quin-style fighter plane."
When Tony helped Ethan build the battleship, he also gave two additional Quin-jet fighters, which were used at this time.
Of course, besides the Quinjet, Ethan can also open a portal and go directly there. Teleportation within visual distance is just a matter of waving for Ethan.
But Tony specially prepared the plane, so it can't be piled up in the warehouse, right? Properly pull it out and use it to prevent it from being damaged for too long.
"Go back and organize your equipment, and meet up in the hangar an hour later."
There were not many things that everyone had to tidy up, and they were all packed up quickly. After half an hour, they gathered in the hangar and boarded the Quin-jet fighter.
With the speed of the Quin-jet fighter, it reached the top of the island in the blink of an eye. Under the driving of Maria Hill, it first roughly observed the various areas of the island, and finally chose to land on the beach by the sea. Here It is the closest to the Prinz Eugen and the terrain is flat, making it a suitable landing point.
After everyone got off the plane, everyone stood on the beach and looked around.
First impression: This island is beautiful!
The beach is almost white with fine sand. There are no stones or other things mixed in the sand. Even if you step on it with bare feet, you will not feel your feet, and you don’t have to worry about scratches. It is soft and warm. , makes people feel very comfortable.
The grassland not far away is green and green, and the wind emits the fragrance of the soil. Laura can even feel the 'goodwill' released by these plants with her eyes closed.
"Strange, I can feel that the whole island is happy for our arrival!"
Logan, who also learned the knowledge of druids, could also feel it, but he thought of the prairie island he had encountered back then.
"Maybe it's because I'm happy to see the food coming to my door."
That was not a pleasant experience, and Logan suddenly became more vigilant about this beautiful island.
"This island is not the same as that island."
Today's Ethan is not the Xinnen mage back then. He can feel that there is no energy fluctuation that affects the spiritual level, and these grasses do not contain extremely vigorous vitality like those on that island. These are just ordinary grasses. of green grass.
"I'll take Xiaoou to the depths of the island. You guys should build a camp here first."
