Murazir nodded slightly and said: "As you said, we will continue this voyage and eventually find the origin of the uncontaminated dragon blood crystal."
She looked thoughtful, paused, and continued: "Based on the intelligence information collected in Hammerfell, we can go to the Desolate Sea and the Elysus Sea to look for opportunities."
"The Desolate Sea is located in the southwest of the continent of Salan, surrounding the vast land where the Silver City-State is located. It was once a transportation hub connecting the sea trade routes between the Elloland Elf Kingdom in the north, the Hasima Empire and the Holy Unicorn Empire. That sea area Compared with the docile Emerald Ocean, it is much more violent, extremely harsh sea conditions are very common, and under the influence of many of the above factors, the famous Desert Sea pirates were born."
Muraziel continued: "Pirates generally live on barren islands that are easy to defend and difficult to attack. They have no agricultural production and self-sufficiency. They need to rob passing merchant ships to survive. I think that after the mechanical tribe came from Ilolan, After the coast goes south, the pirates in the Desolate Sea have lost their living space. We will not be threatened by pirates there, but we may encounter the main army of the mechanical tribe."
Li Ran nodded and said in a deep voice: "After recruiting the undead troops in the Forgotten Castle and integrating the ships of the Illusion Sea Fleet in Naria, our strength has improved a lot compared to when we set off. Now Star Wind The fleet, even if it encounters the regular main army of the mechanical race, is capable of fighting, we don’t need to be afraid.”
Murazeer agreed with Li Ran's views, but at the same time he was a little worried: "The Greyhound Principality once discovered and established a dragon's blood crystal mine on the Great Cauldron Reef in the Desolate Sea. Later, it was captured by pirates and was found on the reef. A fort has been built on the sea, and the Big Cauldron Reef will be our next destination, but if..."
"What if the dragon blood crystal there is also contaminated? Is that right?" Li Ran asked calmly, "Do we have any other options?"
Muraziel hesitated for a while, then said with some uncertainty: "We have one last option, which is the Dawn Islands in the west of Irollan. But if we want to go there, we not only have to pass through the dangerous Desolate Sea, but also Will be close to Irollan, which has been occupied by the machine race..."
...
Beside the side of the Rebel Knight, Eureka was staring blankly at the sea.
After returning from Nariya, she was confused and wanted to seek answers and comfort from Li Ran.
But right now that guy is discussing something with Archangel Muratzel and has no time to take care of her emotions.
"After all, he is no longer the adventurer who accidentally fell into the Wind Spirit Plains, but the great lord of the Star Wind Territory..."
Eureka leaned on the railing, looked at the rolling sea, and sighed quietly.
"Miss Eureka, you seem to have something on your mind?"
Eureka followed the sound and found it was Anastasia.
She shook her head slightly and said in a weak voice: "No, it's nothing..."
Anastasia smiled faintly: "Are you sad for the death of Irina?"
How did Ms. Anna know?
Eureka tried to hide her surprise.
She lowered her head, stared at the waves lapping on the hull, and whispered: "Ms. Irina is a great general. I really hope she is still alive."
"Invincibility starts with sacrificing the ancestor"
Anastasia's voice was questioning: "So, you shed tears for her?"
She actually saw it!
Eureka opened her eyes slightly and tried to escape from here.
But in the end, she sighed softly and looked at the other party with a complicated expression.
"Yes, Ms. Anna," Eureka said a little embarrassed, "I was moved by Irina's story..."
"That's it?"
Seeing Eureka's complicated expression and no reply, Anastasia quietly walked to her side.
"If you have any unspeakable secrets, you might as well tell me," Anastasia said softly, "I have lived in this world for hundreds of years, and I have seen all kinds of weird things."
Eureka thought for a long time, and finally sighed softly, choosing to tell the other party about her life experience.
"Ms. Anna, to be honest, although I studied in the Tribunal and became the inspector of Starwind City, I am not from a noble background."
"I grew up in a small fishing village on the coast of the Emerald Ocean. My father, an old fisherman, told me that I was found in a clam shell floating on the sea, not his biological daughter. .”
Eureka felt relaxed and released by revealing her hidden thoughts in one breath. She continued to explain: "Strange to say, when Atlas tells the story of General Irina, I always think of myself as the one being targeted. The baby girl she held in her arms and rushed into the battlefield gave me the illusion that everything my father said was true and that General Irina might really be my lost mother."
Anastasia tried hard to suppress the shock in her heart and showed a serious thinking expression.
Eureka waved her hands in a panic, as if she was causing a lot of trouble for others.
She quickly explained: "Ms. Anna, please don't take this kind of thing seriously! In the cities and villages along the empire's coast, parents often make such jokes to their children, telling them that they come from sea clams. of......"
Anastasia did not relax at all. She looked at Eureka with a serious expression. The necromancer's green eyes were bottomless.
"Where is Lan Ling now?"
"Ah, it is sleeping in my cabin," Eureka replied truthfully, "I just went to see it, and it was lying on my bed board, exposing its white fluffy belly... Well, blue Ling has gained a lot of weight recently."
"How did you save it in the first place?"
"The blue spirit fell from the sky and happened to fall into my arms," Eureka said with a look of reminiscence, "It seemed... to like me very much, so I decided together with Mr. Li Ran to put it Adopted.”
"However, it is so naughty that it almost keeps strangers away. It especially likes to jump on Dewey's head and make his hair look like a chicken coop!" Eureka said with a smile, "Blue Although Ling will not easily act violently towards other people, he will still keep an eye on them, or completely ignore them..."
As Eureka spoke, Anastasia's expression became more and more serious.
Now it was the exiled Emperor's turn to begin her story.
"Eureka, let me tell you, Blue Spirit is not an ordinary blue bird."
"It is a special existence, like an arcane eagle whose whole body is made of pure mana. It is a rare high-level magical spirit body."
"Hundreds of years ago, it accompanied me when I grew up, experienced the disintegration of the gryphon family of Irina's generation, and lived a long exile life with me. It often showed wariness and hostility towards ordinary humans. "
Anastasia raised her head and looked into Eureka's eyes, and said word by word: "The blue spirit has immortal life and powerful spiritual power. In fact, in the past hundreds of years, I have only seen it. I felt so close to the members of the Griffin family when I first met them.”
