The blue sea.
At this moment, the fleet composed of Krober and the Golden Rose Family is sailing on the sea.
Eight days have passed since they set out from Heiyu Island. During this period, Yan, as a guide, has been very diligent in directing the fleet.
It was through this incident that Kroeber discovered another advantage of rock.
Yan has a wealth of knowledge about navigation.
When sailing, Yan would determine the direction by the position of the stars in the sky, and the "topography" of the nearby sea area to determine their approximate location.
The latter geological theory has never appeared in the Golden Duchy.
At this time, the principality still mainly used nautical charts and astronomical knowledge to assist navigation, and did not have much knowledge of the world below sea level.
According to Yan, the seabed terrain of the Holy Beast Island is generally high, so if you walk in the direction of the highest seabed terrain, the highest island must be the Holy Beast Island.
Walking towards the low-lying area will lead you to the coastline of the principality.
When they set out from the Holy Beast Island, they used their knowledge of astronomy to judge the weather.
They also placed a huge totem on the reefs under the sea to serve as a guide to prevent people from getting lost due to weather conditions.
After hearing this, Kroeber seemed to remember that there seemed to be a geological evolution hypothesis in his previous life that seemed similar to the situation that Yan was describing at this moment.
But unfortunately, he had no knowledge in this area in his previous life, and only knew a few terms through the Internet.
Since I can’t think of it, then don’t think about it.
Krober called Yan, who was still observing the sea, over. He didn't know how Yan could see so many differences from the calm sea surface.
During the eight days of sailing, Yan reminded the team no less than three times, pointing out that the fleet was sailing in the wrong direction.
"This could even be included among the ten unsolved mysteries of humanity in previous lives..."
Krober shook his head helplessly. He had also asked Yan how he determined that the sailing direction was wrong.
As a result, Yan answered seriously:
"It mainly depends on the color of the sea below."
"?"
Kroeber was stunned.
Why did he feel that the color of the sea was the same?
Is there something wrong with his eyes?
I don’t know if it’s because he’s about to go home, but Yan has been in a good mood these days. Even though he is the only person from the Sea People tribe on the entire ship, he will communicate with the soldiers on the ship in the common language.
Yes, you read that right!
In just a few months, Yan was able to communicate with people in daily life using the common language, though with some hesitation.
This is enough to prove that Yan is quite smart.
Speak of Cao Cao and he will appear.
Krober was thinking about Yan, and Yan came to Krober to report the situation.
"Sir, we are almost reaching the waters near the Holy Beast Island. We will probably be able to see the coastline tomorrow."
Yan had also learned some daily etiquette at this time. Although it looked weird, for Krober, this was a sign that the domestication progress had reached a certain level.
"I say, Yan, you're returning to your hometown with a group of powerful strangers. Aren't you afraid of bringing disaster to the Holy Beast Island?"
Based on Yan's performance during this period, Kroeber was sure that Yan was not a stupid person.
These five warships were loaded with elite soldiers and military supplies. He didn't believe that Yan couldn't see the purpose of his trip.
But Yan had no intention of resisting at all. Could it be that he was hiding the overall strength of the Holy Beast Island and wanted to give them a fatal blow?
Or does he really want to take his tribe to join Krober?
Yan didn't react at all after hearing this question. He just smiled faintly, and the hideous scar on his face was particularly obvious.
"I have no choice, my lord. The day you captured us, I had no other choice. The power gap between the Sea People Tribe and you is too great!
For the sake of the continuation of my tribe, I have no choice but to bring them to you, even if it means losing most of my people."
Having said this, Yan's expression became much more painful. It was obvious that making this decision made him feel tormented.
"I don't blame you, sir. Our tribe is simply too weak. Even without you, another noble would have discovered the Sacred Beast Island, and by then, even more dire consequences might have occurred."
As he spoke, Yan actually burst into tears in front of Krober. It was obvious that after this period of torment, Yan's mental state was on the verge of collapse.
Looking at the man crying bitterly in front of him, Krober's first reaction was to feel a little scared.
Perhaps Yan was expressing his true feelings. The gap in strength between the two sides made him unable to muster the desire to resist. He had no choice but to sell himself to Krober, doing the most dangerous work and getting the least pay.
But what can he do!
There are only two paths before him: surrender or perish!
What scares Kroeber is that:
Is it possible that I will end up like Yan in the future?
Defeated by the enemy's powerful strength and forced to make a humiliating decision, his dignity and body were ruthlessly trampled upon.
Thinking of this, Krober's somewhat inflated mood due to his smooth life during this period gradually calmed down.
He needs stronger strength, both himself and the forces under his command.
He patted Yan's shoulder, something Krober had never done to Yan before.
This forced Yan, who was still crying, to stop wiping his tears.
