The Defeated Dragon

Your Highness, when you and Mr. Ake go to explore the new islands, can you bring me and my sister? Ruth asked with her lovely big eyes.

Lucy hurriedly scolded: Luth, don't make rude requests to Your Highness!

Although Ruth was a bit bold, she didn't dare to resist her sister, so she could only bow to Liszt and apologize aggrievedly: I'm sorry, Your Highness, Ruth is too reckless, please forgive me.

Liszt waved his hand: Don't be nervous, Lucy, Ruth, if your teacher A Ke doesn't refuse, there is nothing wrong with bringing you along. During the sailing journey, there are two cute little lolitas, but it is also a It's a pleasing and interesting thing, not to mention that they can also control the magic table.

Therefore, A Ke, who was investigating the project How Individual Dragon Turtles Mutate into Lightning Dragon Turtles from Dragon Turtle Island, quickly agreed to the two sisters' requests.

Under Liszt's instigation, she has accepted Lucy and Ruth as her magic apprentices. To this, the twins' former teacher, Chris Truth, did not object at all, and even envied the twins, who could listen to them at any time The teachings of the wizard.

certainly.

Chris actually thought too much. Ake was the teacher of the twins in name, but he had no idea of ​​teaching in private. She only likes to study magic by herself, or assign some research tasks to magicians, and doesn't like communicating with other people, let alone teaching.

It is true that a magician is too talented to teach magic apprentices. Any ordinary magician from the Magic Guild can complete the teaching.

Thank you teacher, thank you Your Highness. The twins cheered excitedly.

Liszt nodded and said: Go and pack your luggage, we will set off at any time. He and A'Ke's sailing trips were all about leaving, without delay.

At this time.

From a jade box hanging on the roof, Nami's weak voice sounded: Chi-gu.

It flew out of the box and landed on Ah Ke's palm, looking at Ah Ke pitifully. He didn't go out to work for a while, but stayed in the laboratory waiting for Ake's return, seeking the care of the contract master. At this time, its expression is sleepy, and it is still playing games with the hindering forces of evolution.

Ake held Nami in the palm of his hand, and said with a smile: Don't worry, Nami, Ake will take you with me, and we will go to explore the new world in my brother's newly discovered archipelago.

Ji Gu. Nami rubbed A Ke's fingers with her head,

Satisfied to doze off.

a day later.

Liszt arranged the affairs around him properly, and Ake also handed over the busy magic experiments one by one, and then set off for the new islands.

Boom!

Crash!

Ocean, let's go! The twins stood on the bow and shouted happily.

Before they came to Heima Island, they were serf children in the countryside of the Eagle Kingdom, and they had never seen the sea in their entire lives.

When I came to Heima Island to live, sailing is a common occurrence. I have already overcome my fear of the sea, but I still dare not swim in the sea.

The Flame, which was filled with supplies such as fruits, vegetables, and potions, rode the wind and waves along the planned sailing route, with a speed of up to 500 kilometers per hour.

The new archipelago is about 4,000 kilometers away from Heima Island. Calculated according to the data of the earth, it is roughly the distance from the northernmost Bohai Sea in China to the southernmost South China Sea.

The average sailing speed of the palace clipper is about 10 knots, which is 18 kilometers per hour, and it can sail up to 400 kilometers a day with a downwind. The Sapphire family was able to dominate the blue sea by relying on the court fast sailing boats. However, there are many headwinds and calm sailings on the sea, so they can travel up to 200 kilometers a day.

From Heima Island to the New Islands, it would take only 20 days for the court clippers to arrive. If it was replaced by a merchant ship with a speed of 3 knots, it would probably take two months, even if the sailing was smooth.

but.

For the Flame, there is no so-called headwind, tailwind, or no wind. A Ke controls the waterspout to drive, and directly drags the car on the sea. Four hours later, Liszt had already arrived at the place recorded on the nautical chart, and then Liszt called out Leo, the little charmander, and flew into the blue sky and white clouds to search for land.

The search went smoothly, and it took only fifteen minutes to find the island. This is also because the accuracy of the nautical chart is constantly improving.

Ake has been studying Astrology for a long time, and combined with telescope technology, he has developed a set of devices that can measure the angle between the sun or other stars and the sea level and ground level. Method to boot the device application.

After seeing this device, Liszt directly grabbed the right to name it: Just call it a sextant! In fact, it is an alien version of a sextant.

With the sextant, the position of the ship can be more accurately measured during navigation.

Basically cut off the situation of getting lost when sailing. The fleet from the Flame Leader has sextants during the day and night. Only when it is cloudy will you look at the nautical compass, which is a device similar to a compass. It also points to a fixed direction, but it is not north-south. Rather, it is at an angle of fifteen degrees west by north.

There is no theoretical explanation yet as to why it would point in this direction.

Ake, set off in the direction of 195 degrees, the island is in front! After finding the island, Liszt immediately contacted Ake. As for 195 degrees, Liszt invented it. He combined the nautical compass to divide the azimuth coordinates into 360 degrees. , clearly indicating each direction.

195 degrees is a little bit west by south.

This invention originated from the PUBG Mobile: Battle Royale game he played on the earth. There are 360-degree directions in it, which is very convenient to remind teammates of the enemy's position.

But it hasn't waited for Flame to approach the island.

Lucy and Ruth yelled loudly: Your Highness, teacher, there is news from the Devil's Terrace that the Discovery has encountered an unknown maelstrom and is being swallowed by it. Call us for help!

A Ke immediately said: Coordinates, directions!

When the twins reported the location of the Discovery, the Flame immediately turned around and rushed towards the sea area where the Discovery was located. The communication with the magic station was maintained along the way, and the Discovery was still struggling, and the Discovery and Opportunity were far away, so there was no way to rescue them, so they had to wait for the Flame.

It's just a pity that when Ah Ke kept correcting his position and finally rushed to the vicinity of the maelstrom, the signal of Discovery had disappeared from the magic table.

Your Highness, teacher... Lucy said sadly, I can't find the signal of the magic platform of Discovery.

Liszt stepped onto the bow deck of the Flame, feeling a little bad, but he still comforted himself: Sea adventures will inevitably encounter accidents. They are the pioneers of the founding of the country, and the new country will not forget their contributions. Lifting up, looking at the maelstrom that seems to be able to swallow the sky and the earth.

With Ake controlling the waterspout, Flame slowly approached the maelstrom.

This is a huge vortex that cannot see the edge, and even the water-fixing pearl cannot affect its operation. The sea surface of the vortex slopes all the way to the distant center point, it is dark and deep, and it is almost impossible to see how deep it leads to the bottom of the sea.
