It seems like a long time, and it seems like a short moment. .
Joan saw her body extend infinitely toward the dark seabed, until a white spot of light appeared at the end of her field of vision, and then the spot turned into a ray of light, covering her. The next moment, the feeling of the body that didn't seem to belong to her returned to consciousness. , The roaring water sounded violently, almost breaking her ears, and the tranquility of the deep sea was shattered in an instant.
She felt as if she was caught in a vortex... But she quickly rejected the idea. The vortex only revolves around the center, but here, there are sharp currents in all directions, and it is their collision that makes There was such a strong sound.
Even Joan couldn't stabilize her body in such a situation, and everything was out of control. She is like a feather floating in the stormy waves, and she can only let these currents rush left and right.
Where is this place
Although she couldn't figure it out at all, she also knew that this place was no longer deep in the sea, and the scales could not feel too much pressure, and the water depth was no more than 100 meters at most, which meant that she would soon surface. In addition, no matter how Joan cried in her heart, she could no longer get a response from Camilla.
This made her desperately want to get out of the current predicament, even if she couldn't help herself, at least she had to come up and take a look.
Fortunately, it is easier to change the ups and downs than to change the direction.
She raised her head with all her might, and rose little by little in the rushing torrent. Just as she jumped out of the water, Joan opened her eyes blankly.
The Shadow Islands disappeared without a trace.
There are rocks all around and overhead.
What should have been a vast and endless sea became a "waterway" hundreds of meters long, in which the sea water flowed rapidly and rumbled. And there was a gust of wind above the water, blowing so hard that one could hardly open one's eyes, and its whistling sound overlapped with the sound of the seabed wind heard before.
She turned her head around, only to see a light suddenly greeted behind her. The water rushed towards the glowing place, as if it had found a vent.
Could it be... Is the experience just now going to be repeated again
Before I had time to think about it, Joan had been propelled by the unstoppable seawater into that light.
The roaring sound suddenly quieted down, as if it was a lot farther away from her. For a moment, she felt that she was flying, her body became light, and there was no sense of reality. However, she soon realized that she was indeed in the sky!
Under her feet is the blue sea she is familiar with, but it is only a thousand kilometers away! The surrounding rocks were replaced by the sky. The light she saw came from the sun hanging high above the clouds, and the sea water that carried her out of the cave had turned into a wide waterfall.
But... She is neither Maisie, nor Lightning, and she can't fly at all!
As soon as this thought appeared in his mind, his body suddenly fell.
"Acridine acridine"
"thump!"
After experiencing a high-altitude fall that almost scared her soul away, Joan fell into the sea.
If I hadn't seen a similar scene in Ghost Shadow, I'm afraid I'd be scared to death here acridine! She swam out of the water again, letting out a long breath.
By the way, it was clearly in the deep sea before, why was it suddenly washed into the sky by water
Thinking of this, Joan raised her head and looked up, then froze in place.
God, what is that
She could hardly believe her eyes.
I saw a huge rock suspended in mid-air, and its volume was so large that it was impossible to see the whole picture. The shadow it casts obscures most of the sea, like a cloud covering the sky. There are even some clouds below it, which makes it easy to have the illusion that it is not an isolated behemoth, but the top of a mountain.
But even the Desperate Mountain Range is no longer majestic when it is placed in front of it... Qiong estimated the thickness of its rock wall, at least hundreds of meters, which is almost like a large island.
On the thick rock wall, there were many cracks, hundreds of meters short and several kilometers long. They poured out the sea water, forming a waterfall connecting the two worlds of the sky and the sea. The injection of such a large amount of water caused a huge wave on the sea.
Even Lord Thunder, has never seen such a shocking spectacle
Although she didn't know where she was, one thing Joan was sure about was that this place must be very far away from the fjord and Greycastle, otherwise such a big thing floating in the sky should have been discovered long ago.
I... can I go back
In the turbulent waves, Joan retracted half of her head into the water, and Gululu spit out a string of bubbles.
"thump!"
At this moment, she heard a sound of falling water not far away, as if something fell from above.
Are there other victims who were unfortunately involved
Joan estimated the distance, dived into the water, and swam in that direction.
After swimming for about a quarter of an hour, she finally saw the whole thing that fell into the water. It was a strangely shaped vessel, about the size of a three-masted sea vessel. The lower part seemed to be a mixture of fish and squid. The half part is a frame made of curved ribs, which is wrapped in flesh and blood that looks like internal organs. At first glance, it looks like a half-eaten animal body, which makes her feel sick.
But it was definitely not a dead thing. Shortly after falling into the water, it stretched its four pelvic fins and rowed in the direction of the spread of the waves. Joan followed its back and looked at it, and couldn't help being surprised!
In a farther place, there are actually hundreds of such monsters, they are neatly arranged in several rows, and they are half hidden in the waves, and their posture is like a huge fleet.
After the newly drowning one merged into the queue, the fleet slowly drove eastward, until they completely disappeared at the end of the skyline, and Joan was relieved.
What to do next? Since the monster ship fell from the floating land overhead, there might be other strange enemies nearby.
Although she has never seen such a monster, her intuition tells her that she must not approach each other easily! And since awakening as a witch, similar intuitions have never been missed.
Don't be brave, your friends are still waiting for you to go back.
Ms. Camilla's words flashed through Joan's mind.
Then the voices and smiles of Lightning, Maisie, and Sister Lorja appeared in front of them one by one.
She wants to go back.
She had never had such a strong idea in her life that she wanted to return to Neverwinter, to the place where she had only stayed for one winter, but had met many friends.
She wants to come back to everyone!
"Acridine!" Qiong shouted as if to encourage herself, and then she swam to the west after identifying the direction.
No matter how wide the sea is, there are bounds.
Moreover, Lightning also said that the world they live in is spherical, as long as they keep swimming in one direction, she will definitely be able to see the friends of the expedition group again!
must!
…
"The fleet has to set off," Thunder looked at Camilla Derry, who was leaning over the fence, "The Shadow Islands is not the end of this trip. Every day we stay here, we will consume a lot of fresh water. It's the third day, and if it goes on like this, the team will lose control."
"But..." The latter's face was obviously haggard, "Joan hasn't come back yet."
"It's not your fault." Lei Ting patted her on the shoulder, "Not to mention that there will be no improvement if you continue to wait. Remember what you said yourself? There are only two possibilities for the spiritual connection to be interrupted. One is the connection object. Death, the second is too far apart. If you don't want to believe the first result, then you shouldn't stop here."
"You mean... go find her east of the sea line?"
"Honestly, the possibility is slim, but it's better than waiting here." Lei Ting said patiently, "Don't forget that Joan is not an ordinary person. An ordinary sailor will die if he falls into the water without responding, but Joan will not She has lived in the sea for more than ten years, and she can survive without us."
"I... Understood," Camilla bit her lip, "then I and you go to the sea line"
"No," Lei Ting interrupted her, "your mental state is no longer able to cope with the next expedition. And I promised His Majesty Roland, no matter what the result is, I will let you return to Neverwinter immediately after exploring the Shadow Islands and fight against The devil's war still needs your abilities. In addition, only His Majesty can know what happened to Joan under the sea. Your information is very important." He paused, looked at the other party and said solemnly, "We all have our own. It's the mature way to do what you're supposed to do."
Camilla closed her eyes sadly.
Two hours later, the Yukikaze sounded its whistle, and the ready fleet set sail for the farther Eastern Sea. And one of the ships broke away from the group and turned around and headed towards the turn back direction.
The two drifted farther and farther, and soon disappeared from each other's field of vision.
