Chapter 796: Taking an Unconventional Path
A layer of light mist suddenly appeared on the empty sea, and the mist slowly spread out, and a vague projection came into view.
The gurgling streams merged into the river, and the river water rushed endlessly. There seemed to be a sea current on the sea that also flowed towards the river in the projection, and the place where the sea flowed into the river was the entrance of the strange river, which was like a dream and didn't know whether it was true or false.
Small and medium-sized ships and warships turned from the real sea into lonely sails in the dream river. In a blink of an eye, they were far apart, and they all seemed so unreal. The boundary between reality and illusion was so clear.
On the ocean-going ship, Xiaoweier, Lilith, Qili Luo, Nicole, and Alessia were ready to go. They had two characteristic warships of the Naga clan in front and behind them.
As one of the three royal families in the ocean, they were born strong in the water, but the strange river was different from the sea. Even the Naga clan was unwilling to jump into the strange river alone to fight the monsters in it.
This is the experience they have accumulated with blood and tears. They must not lose ships and warships. Losing ships and warships in the strange long river will only lead to death.
The ocean-going boat slowly moved forward, neither too far forward nor too far behind. The deterrence of Wang Hai, one of the royal family of the sea clan, was still very great in the six-ring wizard tower. Three third-level masters were guarding around, making others dare not even have angry expressions.
It is true that the human race is the overlord of the wizard islands, but the sea is still the main battlefield of the sea clan. High-end combat wizards are not afraid of anyone, but when it comes to the low-end combat power of the first and second levels, the sea clan can occupy a greater advantage. Although they are unwilling to admit that the complex composition and large number of sea clans are not weaker than the human race in overall strength to a certain extent.
Xiao Weier is not an ordinary person. He has his own source of intelligence and his own understanding of the situation of the ten thousand races. The so-called three royal races are not wrong, but what is shown outside is just what they want others to see. The real strength of the sea clan is not within the wizard islands.
Each of the three major royal families has a demigod?
Such nonsense may fool ordinary people, but Xiao Weier absolutely does not believe it. The strongest person on the sea is undoubtedly the goddess of the sea, but to say that the sea people in the sea only have three or two demigods is absolutely a lie.
In the Wizard Islands, every mainstream wizard school has several demigods in charge? The wizard lords are all sixth-level strongmen. If the sea people are really just like this, how can they allow the sea people to occupy such a large sphere of influence?
However, it is certain that the sea people are at a disadvantage compared to the human race, mainly because of the high-level combat power, otherwise they would not allow the wizards to continue to expand, from the core area to the first ring, the second ring, and now the seventh ring wizard islands. It is conceivable how many times the wizards' sphere of influence has expanded.
While Little Will was daydreaming, the ocean-going boat had already passed through the strange long river barrier. The world seemed to change. "Bang!" With a loud noise, the ocean-going boat seemed to fall from the sky and hit the water surface hard, causing a splash of water. However, the sky seemed a little low, so the ocean-going boat did not bear much impact, and most of it turned into forward impact.
The Naga ship warship in front was already 300 meters away. The distance maintained before was obviously only about 100 meters. It was not very real from the outside. Once entering this long river, it was found that the space seemed a little narrow and the sky was not very real. There were only one or two hundred meters on both sides before reaching the end, wrapped in misty fog. Not far ahead was a bend, merging into a wider river.
In the cab, Little Will did not need to infuse magic power at all. The ocean-going boat could maintain a good speed by drifting with the waves. The fish swimming under the water did not seem to be afraid of people at all, and bumped the bottom of the boat from time to time.
From the first river to the second river, the river width increased by three points. From the second river to the third river, the river width increased by another three points, but the corresponding flow rate slowed down a little.
"Based on past experience, we will soon encounter aquatic monsters that are not good enough. The water in this place is fresh water, which is completely different from the sea. The depth is about thirty to fifty feet. It will take another day to encounter the first branch intersection. We can continue to sail along this river or enter another wider river." Alessia had a very simple map in her hand. The unit was not even length but time.
"Is the location of entering the strange long river fixed every time?" Little Will suddenly found a little bit of something weird. 110 Literature
Alessia nodded gently: "At least it is fixed in this place."
"The entrance to the strange river is relatively fixed. Even if there are some deviations, it will not exceed a hundred miles, and there is more than one entrance. If you keep going forward, after three days, after two times of merging into a wider river, you will almost encounter ships and warships from other entrances. The most likely one to encounter is the fleet of the Storm Mermaids, but unlike all of us Thunder Nagas who can sense the call of the strange river, only a small number of Storm Mermaids have this sense."
Little Will suddenly asked: "Have you ever tried to go upstream to trace the source?"
"No, the strange river doesn't seem to have a big drop, and the water flow is relatively gentle, but the resistance to go upstream is very large. Ordinary ships and warships can't go upstream at all. The cost and energy required are too great. In order to explore the strange river and hunt aquatic monsters, we don't have time to speed up, and no one will go upstream." Alessia asked curiously: "Why does the Lord of God have such a strange idea?"
"The strange river has appeared for thousands of years. Haven't you tried it once?" Little Will showed a look of surprise on his face. Wouldn't the Thunder Naga be so rigid? Haven't they even tried this?
Alessia nodded and said, "Of course there are such attempts. Although they are rare, they have been made more than once. But they all failed each time. Later, no one made unnecessary attempts. Going upstream not only consumes energy and moves forward very slowly, but you can't see any other different places along the way, and the harvest is often the least. You must know that as the strange river continues to move forward, the strength of the monsters is also slowly improving. If you want to hunt higher-level monsters, you must go further forward, not backward."
"Lord God, you, don't want to retreat?" Alessia showed an unnatural look of doubt on her face.
Little Will looked at her deeply and asked in a very calm tone: "Is it difficult to move forward or to retreat?"
"Of course..." Alessia was stunned for a moment. She felt that the words of the Lord of the Gods across from her seemed to imply a lot of truths. If we put aside the specific environment, generally speaking, moving forward is more difficult than retreating.
In other words, it should be difficult to move forward, and retreating is easier?
Alessia immediately extended this line of thought. The reason why no one has been able to pass the strange long river for three thousand years is not because the river is too long and boundless, but because they have not found the right direction.
There are very few people who are standing still. Everyone has been drifting with the flow, and even chasing forward in the direction of the flow. But what if this direction is not the direction of moving forward?
Going in the opposite direction, a string in Alessia's mind was instantly broken. This is the only chance in her life to enter the strange long river. Isn't this opportunity the Lord of the Gods' once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?
Go with the flow, and work hard for ten days or half a month, maybe you can really encounter a Naga snake monster, but what can you get if so many people share a snake monster?
No, I am a new generation of genius of the Naga royal family, one of the three royal families of the sea clan. I don’t want to take the ordinary road!
Countless examples in the past three thousand years have proved that there will be gains from going with the flow, but it will never be great. The result will be the same with or without me. A large part of the troops will seize limited spoils. A few more or a few less people will not have much impact.
But what if it is a brand new road? It’s not that no one has walked this road before, but it has never been walked through. But looking at the splendid God-favored Lord in front of him, Alessia has an inexplicable feeling that maybe this time will be different.
Don’t take the ordinary road, because there are too few good things on the ordinary road, and there are too many people to share.
