Chapter 402: Doubtful
The chimney of the steamship was emitting black smoke. In the billowing black smoke, the steamship broke through the sea and moved forward quickly.
"Past life plus this life, this is the first time to take a boat."
Flynn stood on the deck of the steamship, looking at the blue water, feeling an indescribable sense of freshness in his heart.
In his previous life, he lived in an inland city and did not have the opportunity to take a boat, so this is his first time to take a boat.
Suddenly, his complexion changed suddenly, and he thought of a difficult question.
"It\'s broken, I can\'t swim."
The place where he lived in the previous life and this life did not need to be used for swimming, so he still can\'t swim until now.
"If you encounter an enemy, the ship will be damaged during the battle..."
Ferrin\'s complexion became ugly.
In this sea, if the ship is damaged and he can\'t swim, the ending is not difficult to imagine.
"With the panel, it is not difficult to learn quickly."
Ferring thought of a solution.
With the panel, it is not impossible to achieve quick results.
No longer in the mood to enjoy the sea view, he was thinking about whom to learn swimming from.
Soon, he found his target.
A man dressed as a crew member is wiping the deck. His skin is dark and rough, and he should often go to sea.
As a person who works on the boat, the other party must know how to swim, and the water quality is probably not bad. This is a suitable object for learning to swim.
He walked over and came to the man.
"Sir."
Seeing Flynn coming, the man quickly stood up and called him respectfully.
Although they are only in charge of logistics, after all, they have to contact the mystics, and they will inevitably see things that ordinary people should not see. Therefore, all the crew members on this ship have military backgrounds.
He is a retired soldier who received an order to participate in this operation.
"Don\'t be nervous, I just have something to ask you."
Flynn said.
"Sir, please speak."
The dark-skinned man said quickly.
"You should know how to swim, right?"
Flynn asked.
"Yes, sir."
The dark-skinned man nodded.
"Very well, from now on, your job is to teach me how to swim. As for other tasks, I will ask the captain to arrange someone else."
Flynn said.
Several hours later, there was a change on the Flynn panel, and a new column of text appeared.
Swimming: not started
"upgrade."
"upgrade."
"upgrade."
Ferring resolutely chose to upgrade, and a lot of memories poured into his brain, a lot of memories about swimming.
After three consecutive upgrades, his swimming skills were upgraded to the master level.
He changed from a person who was new to swimming to a person with superb swimming skills, even enough to practice the corresponding secret technique.
"This potential weakness is eliminated."
Seeing that the swimming column has become a master, Flynn heaved a sigh of relief. With master swimming, even if the battle caused the ship to sink, he would not be drowned.
Of course, the battle caused the ship to sink, which must be avoided as much as possible.
Now at sea, if the ship sinks, although there is a possibility of survival, it will not be too great.
Solved the weakness of not being able to swim, and Flynn returned to his normal rhythm.
Use the alchemy item Blood Ring from time to time to explore the surroundings, looking for the first prince.
In his spare time, he took out the book on Ross Resonance Method and read it.
A day later, the ship they were on appeared in the sea area where the first prince disappeared.
Coming to this sea area, the frequency of his use of the blood ring became more frequent.
The mystics on the ship with search capabilities also used their own methods to try to search for clues.
The mystic who has been in contact with the first prince, and has remembered the smell and breath of the first prince, uses his extraordinary ability to find the smell and breath of the first prince.
A occultist who has practiced the occult beast witch can control animals, controls the fish swimming in the sea, and looks for clues such as corpses and shipwrecks.
One day of searching did not yield any results. At night, everyone stopped searching and rested after dinner.
The ship is not big, and there are not many rooms. Many people need to share a room, even the elders like Feilin are no exception.
In a room, other mystics were playing blackjack with tarot cards to pass the time, while Flynn took out the book on the Ross Resonance Method to watch.
He is not interested in Tarot cards. What he wants now is to improve his learning progress in the Ross Resonance Method, an advanced and extraordinary method.
That is a full ten books. If you are too lax, you may not be able to read all of them in half a year.
After reading for more than two hours, Flynn felt drowsy, so he put down the book and prepared to go to bed.
Suddenly, his heart skipped a beat, and he lost all sleepiness.
"dangerous!"
Ever since he obtained the cursed object, the card of the mind, which can enhance the perception of danger, he has always carried this cursed object with him to improve his perception of danger.
Just now, he sensed danger. Although the sense of danger was very weak, there was no doubt that it was a warning of danger.
Danger is approaching.
"Colin, use your extraordinary ability to manipulate the fish to detect around the steamship."
He looked solemnly at a blond-haired man and said.
The blond man\'s name is Colin Hansa, and he practices the secret art of beast witches, capable of manipulating animals.
"Yes, Elder Sox."
Hearing Flynn\'s order, Colin, who was playing cards, immediately obeyed the order even though he was puzzled.
Use your own abilities to manipulate the swimming fish in the sea and explore around the steamship.
Soon after, his complexion changed suddenly, and he said.
"Elder Sox, I detected someone approaching the steamship from the water."
"how many people?"
Flynn asked quickly.
"There is only one person. The other party can breathe freely underwater, and should have corresponding extraordinary abilities."
Colin replied.
"Only one person? Not good, the other party is planning to destroy the steamship!"
Felin\'s face changed slightly.
Only one person is obviously unable to deal with so many mystics on their ship, so the opponent is not here for the battle.
It wasn\'t for fighting, it was probably for destroying the steamship and sinking it.
If the steamship sinks, even if you can swim, you can at most hold on to the sea for a while longer.
"Where is the opponent?"
"In that direction."
Colin points in a direction.
Flynn quickly left the room, came to the outer deck, called out the mysterious gun, and transformed into a sniper rifle.
With the help of the extraordinary ability of seeing through the sniper rifle, he quickly found the person who was approaching the steamboat from the water.
It was a woman, swimming like a fish in the water, just like a mermaid.
Boom!
Fei Linguo disconnected the gun, a bullet flew out, got into the water, and hit one of the woman\'s legs.
Pfft!
The attacked leg exploded into blood mist, and a painful expression appeared on the face of the woman in the water.
Could no longer keep diving in the water, and floated to the surface.
"Fishing people up."
At this time, quite a few people heard the noise and came to the deck, Flynn ordered.
Immediately, a mystic who practiced the parasitic tree stretched out a long vine, tied it to the woman, and dragged her towards the steamboat.
The face of the woman dragged onto the steamboat was pale, one leg disappeared, there was black blood at the corner of her mouth, and the breath of life was rapidly dissipating.
"Not good, the other party took poison."
A mystic immediately stepped forward to check, and when he touched the woman, the woman\'s breath of life completely disappeared.
"So decisive."
The elder Eve Burns who had rushed over frowned.
Knowing that she would be arrested, the woman committed suicide decisively by taking poison.
"This woman must be related to the disappearance of the first prince. Check her body to see if you can get any clues."
Didn\'t expect this woman to be so decisive, Felin also frowned and said.
A occultist who practiced the secret art detective immediately squatted down, inspected the woman\'s body, and tried to find useful information.
After a while, he stood up and shook his head.
"There is nothing on the other party that can infer the identity of the other party, and it is impossible to judge what kind of power it is."
"It should have been considered at the beginning of the mission, the possibility of being captured if the mission fails."
"The corpses have been disposed of, and among those on duty, a mystic who can perceive underwater is added to avoid being attacked by the enemy from underwater."
Eve Burns thought about it, and ordered.
Leave one mystic who can perceive underwater, and the others return to the room.
In the room, Flynn sat on the bed, thinking of the woman just now.
‘Failed to get the mystery point, that woman is a mystic and not a cultist, that is to say, it was the mystic power that attacked the first prince, not the power of the cult organization. \'
Originally, he thought that it was a cult organization that attacked the first prince, but now it seems that this guess was wrong. It was not a cult organization, but a mysterious force that attacked the first prince.
\'What kind of force is it? Is it the official organization of the Karlo Kingdom, the National Security Bureau? \'
Ferring first thought of the National Security Bureau, the official organization of the Karlo Kingdom.
The Karlo Kingdom has a bad relationship with the Heidelberg Kingdom, and even sent a mystic to assassinate him, the extraordinary seed of the Heidelberg Kingdom.
It is not impossible to assassinate the first prince.
‘The suspicion of the Kingdom of Porto cannot be ruled out! \'
Although the relationship between the Kingdom of Porto and the Kingdom of Heidelberg has eased over the years, suspicion cannot be ruled out.
He heard that there is a force in the Kingdom of Potter, because they lost their relatives and friends in the war with the Kingdom of Heidelberg, and they are very resistant to establishing diplomatic relations with the Kingdom of Heidelberg.
It is entirely possible for this force to attack the first prince who tried his best to promote the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries.
\'There is another possibility...\'
Ferrin narrowed his eyes slightly.
As far as he knew, the relationship between the first prince and the second prince was not good, or even bad, because of their political differences.
Combined with the succession of the throne, it is entirely possible for the second prince to take risks and take action against the first prince.
‘I don’t need to think about this kind of thing, I am only responsible for search and rescue. \'
Flynn shook his head, putting all kinds of thoughts behind him.
He doesn\'t intend to get involved in the royal family\'s infighting, because it\'s not good for him to get involved.
