I Have a Sailing Game-Chapter 284 - 194: Trickster Water Demon (2-in-1)
He suddenly thought of the last sentence in the previous information prompt... Within the strait, up is down, left is right!
Isn't this exactly the situation they are now facing?
The Gelin is on the water's surface, and the horizontal direction is constantly changing.
Meanwhile, Heisatan is underwater, where the vertical direction is constantly changing.
Furthermore, there must be a lot of spatial distortion within the Penance Strait, which led to such a situation with the large sailing ship underwater just now.
Upon realizing this, Rogel was suddenly enlightened.
However, he then felt a bit frustrated.
Even though he discovered this pattern, it was completely useless and couldn't get them out of there.
While Rogel was feeling frustrated, he heard Mira and Noemi chatting nearby.
"So boring, we've been sailing for so long, who knows how much longer till we reach the end..."
"Penance Strait... What a strange name..."
"By the way, Sister Mira, do you know how the name Penance Strait came about?"
Noemi put on a hat out of boredom and suddenly thought of this, turning to Mira curiously.
Upon hearing this, Mira thought for a moment and replied, "I know of two legends about the name of Penance Strait."
"The first legend says this place was once used by the Ancient God to judge the Undead Demon, where they built a colossal execution platform, and where the guillotine fell was where the strait formed. Because the water in the strait is filled with sin, the Ancient God used divine power to imprison it, forming a forbidden zone..."
"The second legend is more peculiar; some say the Penance Strait will automatically judge the sins accumulated by those who pass through it. The lighter the sin, the smaller the hardships, and vice versa could be very dangerous."
For the legends recorded in books, Mira recited them fluently, with a clear memory.
After listening, Lina couldn't help but glance at Rogel with a smile, "Then you're in trouble, you killed quite a few people with a breath in the Royal City."
Rogel knew she was joking, and rolled his eyes, "What's sinful about that? Killing them might even add to my merits."
But he also turned his attention to Mira, "Mira, do you know any other legends about Penance Strait?"
But after Mira heard this, she shook her head, "No more, there's not much rumor about Penance Strait."
This is understandable, after all, throughout all these years, no one has successfully traversed the Penance Strait and returned, so naturally there wouldn't be many rumors.
"Rogel, there's another path ahead!"
At this time, Yas's concise voice came.
Rogel hurried to the bow to observe.
Sure enough, as the fog gradually cleared, two forks appeared on their left and right in their view.
The left side looked brighter, while the right side seemed slightly gloomy.
Seeing this, everyone on board looked at each other in confusion.
"Which way should we go?"
"Captain, pick one."
This made Rogel suddenly hesitate.
He did have a slight difficulty in making choices.
Besides, if he chose wrong and encountered danger that leads to sinking, he might have to start over again, going a long way back.
Normally, people would choose the brighter side.
But what if the Penance Strait doesn't play by the rules?
After thinking about it, he took out a Gold Coin with Ozulik's portrait on it.
The front has Ozulik's portrait and the back has the Thousand Islands Kingdom coat of arms.
"Heads, we go left; tails, we go right."
No one objected after hearing this.
Ding!
With a light sound, the coin was flipped into the air, spinning rapidly before falling toward the ground.
Accompanied by a light sound, everyone fell silent.
They saw the coin standing upright on the deck!
"Pfft!" Noemi couldn't hold back her laughter, "Captain, this means you should go backward!"
"..."
Rogel was speechless too, not expecting to encounter such a rare event.
He was about to flip the coin again when he suddenly stopped, as a flash of inspiration struck him.
Right, doesn't he have a "Good Fortune Pointer" that he hasn't used yet?
But then he hesitated.
The function of this "Good Fortune Pointer" seemed perfectly suited for saving and loading.
After using it, finding a place to save and reload, perhaps he could exploit its function.
If this were true, its value would be immense.
Using it in this unsavable Black Fog Area feels like a waste.
So he decided to keep it and continue flipping coins.
After all, he didn't have just one life, with countless chances to start over, how could he not get through this little Penance Strait?
Ding!
The coin flew up again.
This time, it still landed standing up on the deck.
"..."
Rogel felt something was wrong.
While others wanted to speak, there was a disturbance in front of the Gelin.
Streams of dark sea water rose, forming a blue figure.
It had a human-like shape, but its body was made of water, dressed in a splendid suit, with two horns on its forehead, looking not quite like any good.
"Hello, guests of Penance Strait."
It bowed and smiled as it spoke.
Seeing it didn't seem like a monster that couldn't communicate, everyone looked warily at Rogel.
