Abel shut off the underground passage after returning to the captain's room and connected to the operation circle where there was the consciousness of the submarine spirit.
"Submarine spirit, put the submarine on autopilot!" He commanded
"Master, please select a destination!" a familiar map appeared on the operation circle.
Abel took out the map Wizard Dolan gave him for comparison. Just as expected, the rough shape of the map did not change, but the details were a little outdated.
"Submarine spirit, update the map!" Abel placed the map he obtained in the operation circle.
In a flash of white light, the submarine spirit scanned Abel's map, and its map was updated.
"Master, the map you provided is not detailed enough. Do you want me to automatically update as i go?" The submarine spirit asked.
"Yes!" Abel replied.
Since this ancient submarine was made for traveling long distances, it would prefer to save as much energy as it could.
"Master. Destination confirmed. Do you want me to put the sub on autopilot?" The submarine spirit asked again.
"Yes!"
After Abel's command, the submarine began to change and became a fully enclosed oval.
It began to sink in silence and merged in one with the ocean like a current.
Abel did not dwell in the captain's room. Instead, he returned to the hall and saw Wizard Dolan sitting alone.
"Wizard Dolan, why don't you have a rest?' Abel smiled and greeted.
"I'm worried!" Wizard Dolan said.
"Submarine spirit, show the condition outside in the hall!" Abel knew this submarine had this ability, and he was not planning to hide it.
"Yes master!" Suddenly, the walls became see-through.
Wizard Dolan was stunned. Although he could fly, the ocean was always like a forbidden place to him.
"Master Bennett, let's have a cheer for this submarine!" He smiled.
Abel knew what Wizard Dolan was suggesting, so he took out a red wine with 2 combinations.
Wizard Dolan took out a crystal glass from his portal bag and twisted the wine open, admiring the scenery outside.
A big school of silverfish swam past without noticing them.
Suddenly, a bigger silverfish speeded forward and swallowed up 10 fish from the school.
This took place right in front of Abel and Wizard Dolan as though the submarine was a part of the water.
"The ocean is full of murder!" Wizard Dolan sighed.
The legendary light he saw today left an impact on him. After all, it was the death of a legend. But, it would leave an impact on every professional, more or less.
He was getting too emotional, so he took another sip of the wine.
He then sensed the speed of the submarine. Although it was not as fast as flying, it was faster than any boat they had been on.
"Master Bennett. We should arrive in 5 days, right?' Wizard Dolan asked, but he was confident in his calculations.
"Yes, if everything goes smoothly!" Abel was the one who set the autopilot, so he knew.
"I'm very confident on this thing!" Wizard Dolan retracted his power of will and laughed.
A moment ago, he reached his power of the will outside the submarine and realized it was surrounded by a strange energy that allowed it almost to become one with the water.
If he weren't inside, he wouldn't have been able to notice it.
He was happy since no one would be able to spot it if even a legendary couldn't.
Although, it was a little slow. It was all worth it for safety.
He didn't want to fight a powerful sea monster since they had a disadvantage in the ocean.
Even if they injured a sea monster, the sea monster could go into hiding underwater and attack them again.
A sea monster of their rank could also fly, so there was not much they could do.
"Dolan, are you enjoying yourself?" Wizard Galon stepped out of his room and saw the scenery.
He stopped beside Wizard Dolan and took out a crystal glass as well. Afterward, he poured himself a glass.
"Master Bennett. Just this wine alone is making the journey worth it!" He took a big sip and laughed.
"Wizard Galon, is that all you want? I have some food prepared as well. It seems like I no longer need to take it out!" Abel smiled.
"Haha, seems like we'll have a good time during this 5 day journey!" Wizard Dolan laughed after he heard about Abel's food.
Abel had a lot prepared for this journey. First, there was a lot of food wrapped in ice elements in his holy portal bag. All he needed was to heat them with fire elements, and they were ready to eat.
"Amazing!"Wizard Doran suddenly gasped as she stepped out of her room.
"Master Bennett, can the walls in my room do this as well?" She immediately followed.
"Of course!" Abel smiled and added, "Submarine spirit, open reflection in the rooms.
This way, the 3 legendary wizards no longer needed to go to the hall to see outside.
"Master Bennett. Can you give me something other than wine?" WIzard Doran was about to return to her room, but he saw the glasses on the 2 other legendary wizards' hands.
Abel took out a water spirit fruit juice with 2 combinations and threw it forward. Wizard Doran scanned with her power of the will, and it was put away in her portal bag. She then gave a gentle bow and returned to her room.
After all, what was better than enjoying the wonders of the ocean alone with a glass of water spirit fruit juice? The first day passed by smoothly. Their interest in the ocean scenery gradually died down.
They were all very timely with their meals, and they would knock on Abel's captain room if he forgot.
On the second day, the submarine passed by a glowing seaweed during lunch. Its beauty was beyond this world.
As Abel kept admiring as he ate, Wizard Dolan suddenly struck him with a stand of power of the will. "Be careful, don't make a sound!"
Abel felt his heart drop and looked around.
To his surprise, there was a giant scorpion-like creature resting within the glowing seaweed. It had a layer of silvery-white armor, making it looked like a jade statue from afar.
Abel couldn't help but admire its beauty, but at the same time, he sensed a deep horror from his heart.
This thing was a big danger, a bigger danger than any holy knight.
He turned to the 3 legendary wizards, and they were looking extremely serious.
The ancient submarine was on autopilot all this time, and it was heading straight toward the silver scorpion.
Abel didn't move, but he knew he would be ok. The silver scorpion shouldn't be able to notice him through the submarine's invisibility.
Still, the horror it gave him was surreal even when it was just lying down.
At that moment, the side of the submarine brushed against the side of the silver scorpion.
Suddenly, it made a quick jig with its tail underwater.
Luckily it was just stretching, and it laid back down again.
It did not notice them.
"I hate poisonous sea monsters!" Wizard Dolan let out a big breath of relief after they passed by.
Last time he almost lost his little life in the mouth of one of them, and he was traumatized ever since.
The distance between him and that sea monster just then was even closer than the one that poisoned him.
"Dolan, don't worry. Master Bennett will be here to give you an antidote!" But, of course, wizard Galon wouldn't let such a good opportunity to make fun of Wizard Dolan slide.
"Master Bennett, we are lucky to have this submarine. If we were flying, that sea monster would have definitely attacked us. Those speedy ones are especially hard to deal with!" Wizard Doran added.
For such a powerful sea monster, it would definitely notice the energy of 3 legendary wizards.
Sea monsters were the masters of their territory, so stepping foot in it was provoking them.
The legendary wizards needed to move in a flash while flying, so their energy was basically like shining stars in the night.
A legendary wizard might be able to flash away if the sea monster was slow.
But seeing the speed of that silver scorpion, even legendary wizards would be afraid.
Moving in a flash took time, and it would leave them defenseless.
Although there were gears for assistance, every wizard had a limit.
They could go neck to neck with a speedy sea monster. On top of that, they were in the ocean. Sea monsters had the ability to control water and freeze their escaping prey.
The 3 legendary wizards had ways of dealing with that silver scorpion, but a battle like that would not be worth it. There was no way they could take a full victory since it was impossible for them to chase a sea monster underwater.
They ran into another legendary sea monster on the third day, and it also did not notice the ancient submarine.
When Abel returned from his meditation on the fourth day, he heard Wizard Dolan talking about another legendary sea monster in the hall.
Wizard Dolan was not expecting to see this many legendary sea monsters. Instead, he wondered if his exploration last time had attracted them.
