Ethan’s Fantasy Drift
v3 Chapter 3: Brent's trouble
Logan and Serena decided to go to the restaurant opposite to have a bite. By the way, they could also listen to the chats of people there, which helped them understand the world.
They heard a lot of Dingxi from Ethan, but most people like to ‘get information’ on their own, rather than just passively accepting from someone.
"If it takes too long, you can go straight back instead of waiting here for me."
"I know."
Logan called Laura, and then led Serena to the other side. Ethan watched them enter the restaurant, turned his head and nodded to the guard at the door before preparing to enter the door.
At this time, a group of people came out one after another. These people were tall, short, fat and thin, but everyone showed a vigorous aura. Looking at the temperament of this group of people, you know that they are not ordinary adventurers.
It's just that everyone's faces weren't that pretty at this moment. After they crossed Ethan and walked out of the gate, they greeted some people gathered outside, and then led a few people away from here.
Seeing them disappear in the distance, Ethan guessed that these were the captains that Brent invited back, but at this point, shouldn't they agree?
Stepping inside, there is no need to look specifically for it. After entering, the room used for conversation was not closed. As long as Ethan walked a few steps forward, he could see Brent and several other people sitting in it.
"Sure enough, a lot of people came."
At least dozens of people went out before, but there are still about ten left here. Considering that these people are quite capable adventurers, there will be more or less crew members, plus it’s impossible for all of them to happen to be. Came here on the same day, so it can be said that Brent, including the crew, recruited at least a thousand adventurers this time?
"Great!"
He became more and more curious about what Brent was going to do? big trouble? What kind of trouble is it? Even if thousands of adventurers don't participate, there are at least a dozen large ships in a team of hundreds of people. This is already a fleet.
Stepping into the room, I saw that this was a conference room. Brent was sitting on a chair beside him. At the same time, there was a huge long table in the middle of the conference room, which seemed to be covered with something.
The sound of Ethan's footsteps caused several people in the conference room who were thinking about something to raise their heads at the same time. Brent wanted to see who was coming, but he was a little surprised when he found that it was Ethan.
"Ethan? Are you here too?"
He didn't ask how Ethan got the news. The message he released did not specify the receiving target. It was a public message. As long as there was a communication device, it could be known. Maybe Ethan's ship was installed.
"Come over and have a look when you get the news, are you in trouble?"
The other adventurers did not speak, but silently looked at Ethan. In their eyes, Ethan’s appearance is a bit too young, he should be no more than twenty-five years old. Adventurers at this age are not uncommon, but not many are outstanding enough. Many young people at this age have just adapted. Life on this sea is nothing.
However, anyone who can break into something famous or accumulate some capital at such a young age must either have extraordinary strength or have a strong backing.
Either way is not easy to provoke, sitting here is a shrewd old fried dough stick, of course, will not inexplicably jump up to provoke Ethan.
"What's the specific situation?"
After a brief chat with Brent, Ethan went straight to the topic. He was curious about what trouble Brent had to recruit manpower to deal with?
Ethan knows that Brent's strength is not bad. He still doesn't know how many hole cards Brent has. Considering the equipment used by Cleo before, Brent is unreasonable and can't match Cleo.
"Come and have a look first."
Ethan followed Brent to the long table. Only then did he see clearly that there was a map on the table.
"A map of this sea area?"
"Well, the focus is on these two routes."
This was made by Brent in the past few years. Ethan observed it aside and found that there was nothing special around the central island, but a lot of content was marked on the two routes.
For example, when you enter the region, climate changes begin to become frequent; what kind of changes in the speed and direction of ocean currents; the frequency and distance of floating islands may have certain rules; from what area the floating islands begin to appear on people Threatening creatures.
These contents are marked on the nautical chart, some of which are definite and some are marked as doubts. The former should be confirmed by multiple tests, while the latter cannot be finalized.
On this map, Brent placed a red object on the route that Ethan had not traveled before, that is, in the middle and back section of the northern route in his concept.
"This is the trouble you are talking about?"
This red is so conspicuous that Ethan won't even notice it.
"Yes it is."
"What's in here?"
Brent's face was not very good-looking, and he groaned for a long time before suffocating an answer that surprised Ethan.
"I am not sure as well."
"what?"
Brent gave a bitter smile, sighed and shook his head.
"I can't get close here at all."
Ethan suspected that he had heard it wrong, and he looked back at the location of the red object on the map. It was indeed in the middle and late stages, not in the latter stages.
"You can't get close? Have you never been to this position before?"
"No, I've been to deeper areas before."
Ethan now understands a little bit why Brent feels that he is in big trouble. This sudden appearance does not know what it is, causing abnormal conditions on this route. Brent is blocked in the previous position in this area. This situation is absolutely abnormal, and for Brent, who has an "ideal", this unexpected situation is the thing that makes him most afraid.
"So you want to figure out what happened?"
Ethan guessed that Brent didn't just want to figure out what happened here, he was also going to clear the accident, otherwise he didn't need to find so many people to help.
Brent, who has always believed that unity is strength, is the only way for adventurers who are united to defeat these troublesome Brents. It doesn't surprise Ethan that he would choose to do so.
Brent didn't say anything, but sighed helplessly. Ethan looked at the few people sitting there, and then remembered the group of people who had left before, and understood why Brent had such an expression.
The obvious fact is that Brent has a lot of face, and a single message has called back so many powerful adventurers. But his face is so, these people are not willing to accompany Brent to solve this ‘trouble’ together.
In the eyes of these people, it is nothing more than strange islands appearing on the'suicide route' or some kind of monsters born. This kind of thing is normal and there is no need to make a fuss.
Or they feel that this thing will not affect them, even if the "Northern Route" can no longer go, it doesn't matter, there is another route anyway.
Why would they follow Brent to do this kind of thing?
What powerful monsters, weird islands, etc., even if they really become threats, there are more powerful adventurers to solve them. Anyway, this world does not lack the kind of top-notch characters. Maybe people will stop by when they are preparing to hit the storm sea. The problem is solved, why should they go out of the limelight?
Didn't get the limelight, but lost his life, thanks? They just want to live in this world, not to be heroes.
Even if they stay here, they did not finally make up their minds to solve this problem with Brent. Maybe they owed Brent the favor, or they also saw the possible crisis, but they couldn’t make up their minds to do it. this matter.
In any case, it is certain that Brent's message collection this time has not achieved his goal.
Although Ethan did not make his own decision, it did not prevent him from guessing why those people refused. These are roughly the reasons. Brent wants to use the concept of'common crisis' to persuade each other's non-integrity and even differences in thinking. The huge adventurer is too naive.
But isn't this Brent?
At this moment, a man who had been sitting in the corner stood up and walked to Brent's side.
"Although I don't see the meaning of your insisting on doing this, you saved my life, so I won't refuse your request. But those guys under me believe that I will follow me in the sea, and I can't take it. Their lives are joking."
When he heard this, Ethan thought that another captain was going to reject Brent.
"So I need some time, I have to arrange those guys, and then I will go to this place with you, and see what the **** is going on there."
Bren nodded, and then personally sent the man away. When he came back ~lightnovelpub.net~ Seeing Ethan, who was thinking about something, smiled wryly: "This is the first one who agreed to join."
"Then I can only be the second one?"
Ethan thought for a while, and felt that there was nothing to go with Brent, and he was also very interested in the weird situations that appeared on this route.
Brent never thought that Ethan would agree to join in so easily, but compared to the previous one who agreed to join, Brent was a little worried about Ethan’s decision a bit hasty?
"Don't you need to discuss with your companions?"
"I will discuss with my companions, but I think they will make the same decision as me." Two mutants who won't die, a vampire with extremely strong vitality, and a protoss who likes to make trouble, Ethan doesn't think They will refuse because they feel dangerous.
Especially the Protoss, who likes to make trouble, can make Rocky do something if he finds some trouble, so as not to be bored for too long, this guy takes the initiative to make trouble.
"Then you are welcome to join, Captain Ethan."
