"Do you have a map? Give me a map of this area." Ji Xiaoou stood at the bow of the boat and said to the helmman.

Upon hearing this, the helmsman Fra quickly took out the sea map from the bow cabin and handed it to Ji Xiaoou.

Ji Xiaoou pinched the sea area map, her fingertips trembled slightly, forcing herself to calm down and concentrate on observing the situation on the map.

This was her first time observing a sea map. Before that, she was just an ordinary high school senior science student.

She asked the helmsman Fra about their general location, and then compared the distribution of the sea area map, confirming that they were only two kilometers away from the reef area ahead.

She looked up at the mast and the brig.

After thinking hard, the physics teacher once said that the speed of this kind of boat is about 10-15 knots, and one knot is equivalent to 1.8 kilometers per hour, which means...

Ji Xiaoou quickly calculated it in his mind and found that they only had 5-7 minutes left to avoid the reef area.

Ji Xiaoou took a deep breath, reached into her coat, and took out the compass from the space under the cover of the coat.

Because the compass is small, it has not attracted much attention.

The helmsman Fra, with a sad face, his facial features squeezed into a ball, and he was more like an uncivilized wolf, urging: "Female, what are you doing? Tell me quickly."

At the same time, the wolf orcs behind them became more and more anxious and agreed impatiently:

"That's right, if we can't safely escape the reef area, throw you and that leopard into the water."

"What are you doing slowly? It's not that you can't do anything about it, just to deceive our patriarch and delay time!"

"Silly female, if you dare to tease us..."

Holden stood not far away, leaning against the wall, crossing his legs, and looking at Ji Xiaoou casually.

He was unmoved by listening to the tribe members' scolding of the girl in his ears.

When the girl was negotiating the conditions with him just now, he thought for a while and agreed to her request.

Fra was the most experienced helmsman on the entire ship. Even he was helpless, and the other tribesmen on the ship were even more helpless.

Since the female said there was a way, she might as well try it once.

It is best if it is successful, if it is not successful...

Holden raised his hand and touched the three blood marks on his face that were scratched by sharp claws. He grinned and his eyes flashed with fierce light.

To his surprise, the girl was calmer than she thought.

In order to facilitate guidance, Ji Xiaoou temporarily drew a dial for Fra, which clearly marked the direction of the "1-12" time period and quickly taught him how to identify it.

"Driving at ten o'clock, drive three hundred meters." Ji Xiaoou's pronunciation was clear.

The ship gradually sailed into the reef area, and Fula looked at the misty front, calming his mind and doing whatever he wanted.

Three hundred meters later, Ji Xiaoou said again: "Driving five hundred meters in the direction of one o'clock."

The familiar feeling came, and Fra was delighted, knowing that they had avoided the first reef.

Unfortunately, I didn’t have long been happy, and I welcomed a second reef.

The girl's methodical voice commanded:

"Driving at nine o'clock, five hundred meters."

"At twelve o'clock, go straight for two hundred meters."

"Continue to go straight..."

The entire ship's life is in the hands of the girl.

Not only Holden looked at her, but all the orcs on the ship looked at her.

The girl's eyebrows and eyes were lowered, her eyes were quiet, and her white skin was covered with a layer of lustrous light under the flames.

The slender eyelashes trembled gently, and the shadow hit the rigorous and meticulous sea area map, like the leaves of falling fir, thin and dense.

The night wind wrapped her voice and sent it into the ears of every orc on the deck.

Including the sweet and greasy fragrance on her body.

Of course, no orc dared to have a little bit of charming thoughts at this time.

Although this smell is really tempting.

Ji Xiaoou stared at the reef points marked on the map, her voice calm, only she knew how nervous she was.

While observing the map, she stared at the compass tightly, and a thin layer of cold sweat broke out in her palms.

She had only been exposed to these things in textbooks and never thought that one day she would personally guide the helmsman to sail.

The feeling of practice is not good at all.

After all, she herself is on this boat. If something goes wrong and the hull hits the reef, she will explain it here.

*

In just two hours, it took longer than a century.

When Ji Xiaoou directed the helmsman to avoid the last reef and successfully drove out of the reef area, he felt his hands and feet weak, so he slowly slid on the ground against the side of the ship.

She raised her hand and touched her forehead, sweating coldly.

The fog in front gradually dissipates, revealing the clear night sky, and a crescent moon hides behind the long mountains in the distance, like an eye that is still drunk.

Flas unleashed the rudder, jumped happily to the back of the deck, and chanted with his tribe members with his neck and chanted for celebration.

"Woo--"

"We escaped—"

"Ao—————”

Ji Xiaoou rubbed his ears, and the sound of wolf howlings came one after another, and her eardrums were a little overwhelmed.

After sitting for a while, she tried to stand up. Perhaps because she was too nervous just now, she tried two times but failed.

Just as she was climbing the side of the boat and preparing to try for the third time, suddenly, a pair of heavy boots appeared in her sight.

Ji Xiaoou looked up with her leather boots, her head raised high, and she saw Holden's face.

The height difference between the two sides was huge, not to mention at this angle, Ji Xiaoou's neck felt sour, so he simply lowered his head and refused to look at him. His dark eyes turned, as if he was looking for something.

Seeing that she had no intention of talking to him, Holden bent his knees, squatted in front of the girl, looking straight to her eyes.

"What method did you use just now?" said an interesting tone.

Ji Xiaoou turned back his gaze and met Holden's deep green eyes.

Shaoqing tilted his head and answered the question irrelevantly: "I'm leaving tomorrow morning, you haven't forgotten what you promised me?"

"Of course." Holden curled his lips, looking very easy to talk.

However, the next second, he changed his tone and said, "I can let you leave, but you took my things, which I exchanged for with food. There is also the leopard tribe who has not grown up. It destroyed my cabin. I can't just forget it."

The "thing" that Holden exchanged for food refers to Ji Xiaoou's backpack.

Ji Xiaoou pursed her pink lips tightly and looked at Holden with distinct black and white eyes.

She had long known that the wolf clan was cunning and that trading with them was extremely risky.

"What do you want?"

"Stay behind and go back to race with me." Holden did not beat around the bush. "I will not pursue these things anymore."

“…”

Seeing her silent, Holden raised his eyebrows slightly, "Don't want to? The females in our clan are treated very well, at least better than those of the leopard clan."

When Holden saw her carrying a little leopard, he defaulted to her as a "female of the leopard tribe."

"Little poor, the leopard tribe is the one who doesn't know how to be merciful. The leader of the leopard tribe is both cruel and violent, and is my defeated general. You are so weak that you can only be bullied when you go back. Why not go back to the wolf tribe with me, and I will give you good treatment."

Ji Xiaoou didn't say a word and expressed his resistance with silence.

She is not a female of the leopard tribe, and she will not follow the leopard tribe back to the tribe.

She just wanted to find a way to go back. Back to the 21st century she was familiar with, this place was full of crises everywhere, and the orcs were all cruel and strong, and they could eat her at any time. She couldn't survive here.

Holden looked at the desperate girl in the corner and wanted to speak, but he felt something was on his waist.

The "sizzling" electric current sound was remembered again, and the girl's dark eyes looked directly at him, revealing a sense of firmness.

Holden had seen the power of this thing. The moment he was electrocuted, he was numb and had no strength, and he could still feel pain until now.

"Okay, OK." Holden raised his hands in compromise, curled his lips and smiled, "As soon as the sky is dawn, I will let Fla dock, you can leave at any time."

*

Ji Xiaoou looked around and finally saw the familiar shadow in the corner.

Renn lay peacefully on the ground, the cracked wound had not been treated yet, and the fur was soaked with blood.

It doesn't move at all, probably storing physical strength.

He drooped his eyelids, raised his eyelids slightly, and the deep sea blue eyes moved, retracting the sight that fell on Ji Xiaoou and Holden.

Ji Xiaoou approached and happened to see two wolf orcs trying to lift him up.
