Chapter 642

“Coming back from the other direction...what do you mean?”

Nathan and Edward noticed some strange words from Logins.

“It’s incredible, is this world really like this?” Old Odd narrowed his eyes and took a puff from his pipe.

He smiled and said to the boy: "Haha, Logins, come and explain to our guests."

The boy's face was full of excitement, and his previous fear of Nathan and others seemed to have completely disappeared.

"It's the Western Exploration Team! Do you know why they are called the Western Exploration Team? Because when they set off, they drove the ship into the depths of the western sea."

Oh, it turned out to be A fleet of ships, Nathan and Edward were convinced.

Wait, to the depths of the sea to the west?

Edward's face was full of confusion: "Is it starting from the northwest bay and sailing due west?"

"Yes, yes!" Logins replied immediately.

Edward continued to ask: "But there is only sea water in the west direction!"

As a former pirate leader in the northwest bay, he knew what was there very well, and after passing a few scattered islands Finally, there is the boundless sea.

Nathan on the side also looked puzzled.

Logins said anxiously: "Yes! There is only the vast sea, but they came back from another direction! Uh... there is such a legend among the crowd, they should come from the ship ”

"The other direction?" Nathan asked, "You mean, they came back from the east?"

"Yes!"

"How is this possible?" Nathan sneered. , "Oh, I know, they must have gone around in a big circle first to the south and then to the east, and then returned along the coast of the mainland after going to the east."

"It was a big circle, But I don't know what kind of circle you imagined."

Logins suddenly raised his voice, "Ahem!" He cleared his throat again.

"Their return shows one thing - the earth under our feet is a circle, and they went around this circle, so they returned to the northwest bay from the east."

The boy said, He gestured with his hands, fearing that the guests wouldn't understand.

Nathan was stunned for a few seconds, and then suddenly laughed.

"Hahahaha! Hahahaha!"

He laughed so hard that he was out of breath.

"You...why are you laughing?"

Logins looked at Nathan, who was laughing wildly, and frowned, looking a little dissatisfied.

Nathan held Edward's shoulders and stabilized his somewhat swaying body.

"Edward, listen, does this silly boy know what he is talking about? He said... Hahaha... He actually said that the earth under our feet is round... Uh, what's wrong with you? "

Nathan stopped laughing because he saw Edward's face was full of seriousness. "I said..." Nathan was still smiling, "You don't take what this silly boy said seriously, do you?"

Hearing Nathan call him a silly boy, Logins became even more angry and puffed up his cheeks.

"That...Nathan." Edward looked at his companion, "This boy...ah, your name is Logins, right. What Logins said may be true."

"What?" Nathan put away his smile, put on a puzzled look, and waved his hand in front of Edward, "I don't remember you drinking today!"

"I'm serious. " Edward said seriously, "You know, I have been at sea all year round, and I have always had a question in my mind - why do ships sailing from a distance always reveal their masts first, and then the hull below? Flat, that shouldn’t be the case.”

He spread his hands, "But if this is the case, the earth - together with the sea - is round, or a ball, then the explanation makes sense."

"Absurd!" Hearing his own words His companion also said the same, and Nathan became serious. He retorted seriously: "Maybe it was blocked by the waves of the sea!"

Edward shook his head, "But it's the same when the sea is calm and there are no waves at all. Ah!”

Nathan frowned and said: “I have also heard of the so-called round earth, but I only need one question to prove the absurdity of the idea that the earth is round, and that is— -If the earth is really spherical, then when people are at the other end of the circle, wouldn't they fall into the [sky] below? Since they have gone around in a circle, this so-called Western exploration team must have made a circle. We need to go through the other side, right? So why didn't this fleet fall?"

"This..." Edward's eyes froze, unable to refute. In the end, I could only say: "It must be the power of the Lord of Light that is at work, right?"

"Tch!" Nathan sneered at his explanation of using divine power.

“I see!” he continued, “this so-called exploration team is just a group of liars seeking fame and reputation, trying to deliberately make big news to leave their name in history.”

"Impossible!" Logins shouted at the side, "They were sent out to explore the world by Lord Graiman! They can't be liars who are just trying to gain fame!"

"Graiman? Haha, yes. The lord here, right?" Nathan said with a smile, "If he accepts the idea that the earth is round, he is either the leader of this group of liars, or a fool."

"You..."

Logins looked at him angrily, about to start a quarrel with Nathan.

"Okay!" Old Oded patted Logins on the shoulder, stopping him from continuing to argue with the guests.

The old man said calmly: "If the Western exploration team lied, it will definitely be exposed. After the news spreads, many explorers will try to repeat their feats. Let's see. Whether they can succeed or not, it’s impossible for everyone to defend the lie when they come back, right?”

Nathan looked at Logins who was still staring at him, smiled and said, “Let’s wait and see!” ”

After confirming that Old Odd and others were still unwilling to join the Secret Order, he and Edward left.

When we came to the street, almost everyone was discussing the return of the Western Exploration Team, and many people were running towards the pier to meet the great explorers.

“Tsk, tsk, tsk!” Nathan looked at the excited people on the street, shook his head, and kept sighing, “Look, Edward, mortals are so ignorant, such an outrageous lie can To make them believe that they... need to be educated, taught by a more advanced and powerful force. To be honest, a sense of mission suddenly appeared in my head. Is this why fate made me a spell caster? "

"Although I agree with your statement..." Edward said with a look of displeasure, "But I also have doubts about the round earth. When will your arrogance change?" "

"Haha! Nathan laughed, "No offense, really." ”
