Ethan’s Fantasy Drift

Once again, back to the sea of ​​calm.

Although Ethan did not gain any new things or knowledge on this shuttle trip, the gains were no less than the previous ones.

The improvement of his own strength and the 'upgrade' of the time and space pointers all take time to build up. Originally, he thought that if he could reach the current level before leaving the Sea of ​​Tranquility, he would enter the realm relatively quickly. The goal was reached ahead of schedule.

"It's just that you stay in the plane world for a long time like this. If you go on for a long time, how many times can your lifespan last?"

Ethan looked in the mirror, his face that had changed significantly from before, lost in thought.

He left his home in this world and came to the Sea of ​​Tranquility. It took him more than a year in total, but counting the time he stayed in the plane, it was already more than two years.

Young people are growing fast, and with hard work, Ethan, who is now close to nineteen years old, is fading away from the childishness on his face.

Now he should be thankful that he only acquired this ability when he got a young body. If it is his own body in a previous life, if the problem of lifespan cannot be solved as soon as possible, I am afraid that after a few shuttles, he will find that his lifespan is not enough.

Back on the deck, Arthur frowned and struggled with this question.

Compared with Ethan, Arthur attaches more importance to this issue. If he is already thirty years old when he goes back, Merlin can say it, but how should his father explain it?

"Don't be too nervous, Merlin will let you come out with me. He must have a way to solve this problem."

For mages, there are many ways to increase lifespan. Of course, most of them have side effects, but for a top-level magician like Merlin, it shouldn't be difficult to come up with the one with the least side effects and the best effect.

Ethan also regards Merlin as a trump card. When necessary, he will also learn a life-enhancing magic from Merlin. Even if he cannot live forever, at least he must be able to prolong the peak period of his body and buy himself more time.

"There should be a way."

There is no way to do it, Arthur can only put this problem aside and get busy with Ethan.

Just returned to the Sea of ​​Tranquility, the two of them had a lot of things to do - organize the salute, and check the status of the Dawn Goddess by the way.

Before, Ethan had determined that every time he traveled between planes, he returned to the point in time when he left. But it took too long to leave this time, and I don't know if there has been any change, so it is more appropriate to check it again.

As a result, Ethan breathed a sigh of relief, and everything on the Dawn Goddess maintained the state before he left, including the food and water, and there was no spoilage.

"It seems that no matter how long we stay in another plane, this magic circle will send us back to the moment we left."

Ethan glanced at his left hand. Now that there is no space-time energy in it, he has reverted to the time-space pointer that he is familiar with. The only change is that there is an anchor icon on the top of the light ball, which is the space-time coordinates of the DC movie universe. .

"This should have a great advantage for you in this world, right?"

"certainly."

There are too many specific benefits, and Ethan doesn't want to talk about them one by one.

"During this time, I have steadily improved a lot of strength on Paradise Island, and you must have gained a lot."

Arthur shook his head helplessly: "Now I can only accumulate experience by continuous actual combat, and pure practice can only consolidate the foundation..."

In addition, it is inconvenient to practice the use of hot weapons on Paradise Island. One is that there is not much ammunition, and the other is that the movement is too large. At most, let Diana know about this thing and avoid losses in the future.

"It's a pity, in fact, I think you can develop in the direction of a Paladin. Your mental strength is not weak, and it is very strong."

"Paladin? Seems like a good choice."

After being a partner for so long, Ethan has more or less talked about some messy things, and Arthur himself will find some books to read and know what a paladin is.

I didn't think about it before, because he believed in his own path before, so he was not ready to develop in this direction. Now he has seen more things, and gradually realized that his strength is too far from the real strength.

What's more deadly is that unlike Ethan, he doesn't know where his future path is at all? It seems that the only way to inherit the throne is to become a good king? It seems that his path in personal force can already see the end, but he himself is not satisfied with this end.

Humans have desires. Especially excellent people, their desires are much larger than ordinary people. It's okay to not know, how can Arthur be satisfied with a strong man among ordinary knights?

"Even if you don't become a paladin, you can simply cultivate magic power and use magic power to strengthen your physical fitness, allowing you to keep improving your combat effectiveness while maintaining your melee combat style."

In contrast, Ethan is more inclined to the latter. Although the Paladins are strong in combat and have more means, they have high requirements for personal beliefs, and they become mad believers if they are not careful, which is not suitable for a person. A young man who will inherit the throne in the future.

"It's a good idea."

Arthur himself has several pieces of equipment with magic power, and it will indeed improve the combat effectiveness a lot when using it.

"But how does magic work on itself? How to improve? I'm afraid Merlin is needed to teach you."

For a magician, it is a matter of nature to use magic power to feed himself back. When his magic power is strong to a certain level, the magic power will naturally start to improve the physical quality of the magician, and there is no need to do it specially.

As for a small number of magicians, they can cast some strengthening magic on themselves, which is only done after the magic has been practiced to a certain level.

Either way, it is not suitable for Arthur, who is not a magician at all, and Ethan's current strength can't help Arthur to improve his strength-not to mention that this kind of strength that is improved with the help of outsiders lacks the potential to continue to improve. .

"Finally, there is a direction to work hard."

Ethan adjusted the course to make it easier for the boat to take advantage of the wind, and then turned on the island pointer to see if there were any new floating or sinking islands nearby.

"Huh? Are there really new islands?"

He looked at the pointer before he set sail. At that time, the pointer was still swaying cluelessly, so he just found a random direction to move forward.

Unexpectedly, it didn't take long to drive out, and after chatting with Arthur for a few words, the pointer found the island.

Either he stayed outside the maximum search range of the pointer before, and his movement happened to crash into the range. Or it was very coincidental and encountered the birth of a floating and sinking island.

"It should have happened to enter the area searched by the pointer. The possibility of encountering a new island is too low." Arthur saw the pointer in Ethan's hand, and came up with the same thoughts and speculations.

"And... it seems we weren't the only ones who discovered the island."

Arthur followed the direction Ethan pointed, and also noticed a boat at the sea level.

It was a much larger ship than the Dawn Goddess, just by looking at the three masts and the number of sails hanging on it, it was probably the same tonnage as Brent's ship.

In the calm sea, there are not many large ships of this level, and Ethan is likely to collide with a very strong adventurer this time.

"I hope I won't encounter robber-like adventurers again this time."

Ethan didn't know why. Except for the uncle he met at the beginning, the adventurers he met at sea were more and more robbers.

"I don't want to meet someone like that again."

The distance on the sea is very frustrating. When Ethan and Arthur found the ship, the opposite side would also find him. However, under the premise of being able to see, the two sides want to further observe the details of the opposite side, and need to wait a long time.

It took most of the day before Ethan was able to see the outline of the ship clearly through the telescope.

"It's a large sailboat close to the structure of a Galen."

The complexity of the sailing board on such a large sailing vessel means that more manpower is required - so it can be concluded that there are quite a few crew members on the opposite boat.

Speaking of which, if you get a certain name in the sea of ​​calm, your subordinates will basically not be short of people.

After seeing the cruelty of this world, many adventurers will give up and fight alone.

Those with a little bit of ambition will gather a group of partners to fight together, and at the same time strive to become the leader of this group of people, and finally make a name for themselves in this sea area.

Those with slightly lower ambitions, or simply wanting to live well, generally choose a strong captain to be attached to. Therefore, the number of subordinates also shows the strength of the captain from the side - the stronger the adventurer, the more people who take the initiative to join.

Like Ethan, there are only two kittens on the whole boat, and even bigger boats dare not drive. He has always insisted on fighting alone, and his companions have carefully chosen, and then roaming the sea by himself is the wonder of this world.

As time passed, even if the two ships were not heading towards each other, they were clearly heading towards the same goal, making the distance between the two ships shrinking. Ethan slowly saw some details of the opposite ship.

"The other party has a magic stone cannon."

Not many, Ethan saw three gun muzzles on the upper deck aimed at him. Considering that the Galen ship is the pinnacle of sailing battleships, this ship of similar construction must also be a multi-deck design, which means that there may be more cannons hidden.

"This kind of strength... is much stronger than that of the Fire Hand!"

Arthur was sighing at the opponent's combat effectiveness and evaluating how to respond if the opponent turned his face. Ethan suddenly discovered that the boat on the opposite side... seems to be all women?
