In fact, Xia De didn't expect to land on the island in the middle of the lake so soon. His plan is to investigate and find out the situation, and use the safest way to land on the island. But with the help of "Miss Pharmacist", it is not unacceptable to land on the island early.
For the action of landing on the island, Xia De actually had nothing to prepare. After leaving from Natalie's mother-in-law, he sneaked into the underground warehouse from behind the hotel and returned home. Because Little Miya was taken away by Dorothy, Xia De went to Quill Street and invited Miss Writer to have lunch together.
And Dorothy also told Xia De that Leiziya had already told Miss Galina that he needed help. Tonight, the Duchess has reserved a table at the restaurant on Silver Cross Avenue, and they will eat and talk while Shade returns from Green Lake.
After lunch, Dorothy returned home with Little Mia and Shad. Xia De sent Miss Daniste an invitation to meet through the pages of the poem manuscript, and then said goodbye to Miss Writer, who was looking for information in the study, and returned to Green Lake City.
When Shad pushed open the door of the Green Lake Hotel again, Ms. Helen Green behind the counter had disappeared, and her twin brother, Mr. Soren Green, was in charge of the afternoon shift. And that young and beautiful "Miss Pharmacist", I don't know if she hasn't left all this time, she is still sitting at the place where she met Shade in the morning, holding a copy of "The Silent Forest" written in Kaseric look in.
Xia De walked over and took a seat across the table. The sorceress looked at him, pursed her lips and did not speak first, so Xia De started the conversation with a boring topic:
"This hotel is really interesting. Most of the paintings on the walls of the upstairs corridors are lifelike portraits of animals. Rabbits, birds, elk, owls, etc., etc., you can even see the details of animal hair clearly. I am not very I understand why such paintings are hung in hotels, shouldn’t they be landscape paintings?”
"Maybe it's the owner's unique aesthetic style."
The sorceress said, put away the book and asked Xia De: "Can we go now?"
"Let's go, but I have a date with a beautiful lady this evening, so our island exploration won't take long, will it?"
"No, two or three hours is enough. But you have to remember the two requirements I said, this is the basis of our cooperation."
The distance from the city to the lakeside of Green Lake is not short. Xia De originally thought that he would take a taxi, but "Miss Pharmacist" was already prepared. She took Shad out of the hotel, and then moved along the street towards the east of the city.
Ten minutes later, they passed through the foggy city and came to the banks of the Duin River, which runs north-south through the Green Lake area, and a small ferry boat was already waiting for them there.
It was a steamship equipped with a small compressed steam engine. The hull included decks and cabins, which was much more luxurious than the old wooden boat that Shard could summon.
There was no boatman here, and after Xia De boarded the boat with Miss Pharmacist, the sorceress raised the black low-heeled leather shoes under her skirt and stomped on the deck twice, and the boat actually started by itself.
"Is this... a mechanical construct?"
Amidst the sound of the steam engine, Xia De asked the sorceress in surprise, "It's really amazing."
"This technology is nothing special." Miss Pharmacist said calmly.
"No, no, I'm not complimenting the technology. What I mean is, it's amazing that you managed to get this thing into the city without the church finding out. I know I shouldn't be asking about your real identity, but I miss you As an ordinary person, he must have a lot of status in the local area.”
Miss Pharmacist ignored him.
The Duyin River is directly connected to Green Lake. Now that spring has arrived, the steam boat unimpededly takes the two of them from the upper reaches of the river, all the way to the south. The speed of the boat is very fast, and after leaving the urban area, it is the scenery of the countryside. But because the urban area is not very far from Green Lake, it didn't take long for Shade to see the endless fields and the small villages on the side of the field road, and the boat officially entered Green Lake.
Although I knew that this lake is very big, but I really saw it.
Shad was taken aback.
"Green Lake is the second largest freshwater lake in the middle of the Old World."
The pharmacist explained to Xia De, dropped the silence charm, and then stretched out her finger to swipe in the air, the sound of the ship and the swipe of the ship itself, and the products of Jialiu and Jialiu disappeared into the air :
"After that accident, the church did not allow anyone to land on that island, so as to prevent the diffuse fog from spreading to the lake and even the surrounding cities due to reckless actions. If you want to land on the island in the future, remember to also Don't be too flamboyant."
Winter has just passed, and it is not yet the fishing season in the traditional sense of the Green Lake area. Therefore, there are not many fishing boats on the huge Green Lake. Instead, inland river boats transporting goods are more common.
Although the island in the center of the lake covered with heavy fog is in the middle of the lake, the fog itself will affect the sense of direction of ordinary people, making it difficult for normal ships to sail to the island without guidance, so there is no need to worry about ordinary people Rush to land on the island.
As for ring warlocks, as long as they know the existence of the island, they don't have to worry about being confused by the white mist. Therefore, the steamboat carrying the two of them headed straight towards the center of the lake. When the hull of the boat left ripples on the satin-like lake surface in the spring afternoon, Xia De stood on the deck and looked down the lake, still thinking about helping Edmund Mr. De's matter of catching rotten fish.
"The white mist only exists for a hundred meters around the island, and it has never expanded in the past century."
Miss Pharmacist still said something coldly, while Xia De frowned and looked around:
"Feel something?"
[The space in the fog is unstable, rashly using the "Spatial Stability Halo" in this area will create a lot of noise. The mist is indeed poisonous and has little effect on you, so don't worry about it. 】
"How much movement can there be?" She said with a chuckle: 【You can try it. 】
The pharmacist was obviously familiar with this water area, even though the view was blocked, the steamboat still purposely carried the two of them to the pier by the island. And before he noticed that the ship was slowing down, Shad didn't even notice that there was a pier here.
"Here we are."
The boat just touched the pier trestle and stopped. The ripples slowly disappeared in the fog. The female sorceress took out a small gray cloth satchel from the cabin and hung it on her waist, which made her look like she was out picking herbs. Girl. She circled around to avoid Xia De on the deck, and walked down first, and Xia De followed closely behind.
The diffuse fog became thicker and thicker on the island. Except for the spaces left by the ancient gods, even the fog in the "Life and Death" of Fort Midhill was not so exaggerated.
"Items like the compass are useless on the island, [space perception] thaumaturgy will encounter confusion, and only some relics of the Keeper level and above can correctly guide the direction.
Although she is still very indifferent to Xia De, Miss Pharmacist faithfully plays her role as a "guide". Like Xia De, she didn't care about the toxins in the fog, but when she walked along the trestle to the island, she specifically asked Xia De:
"Remember, you can't enter the range of 1 around me, but don't be too far away. Follow me closely. Once you get separated in the fog, it will be difficult to reunite."
Xia De then followed two steps forward. If it wasn't for the fact that the badge hanging around his neck still showed no signs of fever, he really would have wondered if he had encountered the Great Witch again:
"But alchemy items are not omnipotent, in case the other party has a targeted thaumaturgy... But if she is a witch, there is no reason for her to treat me like this, she should want to test me... .What a strange lady."
Leaving the trestle, Miss Pharmacist didn't take Shad deep into the island immediately, but took him along the shore to the right. Not long after, they saw a sandy beach piled up with all kinds of garbage and bones. Of course, when they noticed these things, Shad almost stepped on them.
"The water of Green Lake will periodically push some things in the lake here, I heard Nata
Granny Li said that you want to buy the skeleton of a rotten fish, here should be what you want. People don't necessarily come to this island once every few months, let alone come here to rummage through garbage. "
The lady with short brown hair said that Xia De looked at her in surprise, and did not expect that she brought herself here for this reason:
"Thanks.
The sorceress pursed her lips and did not reply, signaling Shade to act quickly.
As a strange creature with extraordinary power, "rotten fish" must have elements attached to its corpse. Although the white fog on the island would seriously disrupt Shad's perception, it did not hinder his ability to perceive elements at close range.
Although the sandy beach covered with **** is not that big, after searching carefully, within ten minutes, Xia De found eight rotten stinky fish.
He arranged the fish on the beach for easy counting, and then walked around the beach before giving up and continuing to search. If you look carefully, there must be fish bones of rotten fish here, but he didn't go to the island today for this, so he can't waste too much time here. Grandma Natalie said that the local black market can buy 5, so it is still 7 short of 20. He can come here again when he has time, or go to the lake to try his luck.
As for the smelly dead fish, Xia Deben planned to wrap them in cloth and store them in the cabin first. But the female sorceress who watched him "picking up trash" stopped him because she couldn't see it:
"It seems that you don't have a detailed understanding of the processing of bone materials~www.mtlnovel.com~."
She said helplessly, and her cold tone became a little emotional. What she said was true. Most of Shade's skeleton materials were purchased from Mr. Cops in Tobesk, and he rarely collected them himself.
The sorceress rummaged through the cloth bag she was carrying across her shoulders, and Xia De saw that the inside of the bag was divided into densely packed small bags, each containing a reagent bottle.
Miss Pharmacist threw a brown potion bottle to Xia De, and asked Xia De to pour the potion on the dead fish. Then, let Xia De separate the fish
Wrap it up, and fill some wormwood in the gap between the cloth bag and the cloth bag. After finishing this, they returned to the pier and put the materials into the cabin, and only then did they officially start exploring the island.
