Fang Ka had noticed how closely Noel listened to Xia Lin recently.
So upon hearing her words, he nodded gently and did not continue to trouble Noel, whose mind was always full of food and fighting.
Then Noel sat at the front of the Nightmare Beast, with Nona and Tina behind her, and Parod sitting at the very back.
Xia Lin used the Soul Contract to make the Nightmare Beast obedient, and then it flapped its wings, leaping into the air before diving into the sea.
Fang Ka glanced at Xia Lin who returned to the sea, then said, "I'll hold onto the Eye of Darkness first, and you take the Dark Speech. I'll come to you later."
Fang Ka tossed the Dark Speech's vessel to Xia Lin, then took the vessel of the Eye of Darkness and hurried back to the Ancient Castle.
At this moment, the Eye of Darkness had already been activated, with complex Magic Patterns continually flowing inside the small bead. Above the bead, there was a scene depicting Noel and the surrounding area.
Fang Ka made his way back to the Underground Library, then used the Magic Array to open a temporary exit at Noel and her companions' location.
Noel and the others immediately rode the Nightmare Beast out through the temporary exit.
Fang Ka quickly manipulated the Magic Array to restore it to normal.
After not finding anything unusual from Noel's group through the Eye of Darkness, Fang Ka finally let out a sigh of relief.
He then returned to the front of the Ancient Castle, carrying his deck chair towards the beach.
He planned to stay on the beach with Xia Lin until Noel and her group returned.
In this way, both of them could monitor the situation of Noel's group using the Eye of Darkness and the Dark Speech.
Xia Lin could work at ease, and Fang Ka could meditate peacefully, benefiting both parties.
As for the players, having them run a bit more wouldn't hurt.
Soon, Fang Ka arrived at the edge of the beach.
At this time, Xia Lin was communicating with Noel through the Dark Speech, and seeing Fang Ka carrying a deck chair over, she couldn't help but be taken aback.
"Mentor Fang Ka? What are you doing..."
Fang Ka carried the deck chair all the way to his usual spot on the rock and sat down: "I'll be here until Noel and the others return, so we'll both be able to monitor their situation and give them advice on how to handle things."
Xia Lin immediately looked at Fang Ka gratefully: "Thank you for your concern, Mentor Fang Ka."
"You're welcome." Fang Ka glanced at the screen of the Eye of Darkness, then listened to Noel's soft voice through the Dark Speech: "It seems as expected, there's nothing dangerous around the island. Now we just need to explore the surroundings of the island."
Noel's voice instantly chimed in: "Lord Fang Ka, we've come out of the sea and are up in the sky, it's so beautiful up here, it's my first time flying..."
"Oh, and we decided to first explore the east side of the island to see if there are any other islands or dangers there."
Fang Ka quickly replied: "Well, alright, I'm watching your situation over there, explore slowly and carefully, there's no rush."
"Okay, Lord Fang Ka, I won't miss any chance for a fight!" Noel vowed confidently.
Fang Ka couldn't help but stiffen, that wasn't what he meant at all!
Fortunately, Xia Lin spoke in time: "Noel, don't mess around, that's not what Mentor Fang Ka meant. You must always follow my and Mentor Fang Ka's instructions. The fights you can handle, of course, we'll let you handle them, but the ones you can't, don't act recklessly."
Noel softly replied: "Oh... got it."
The Nightmare Beast's speed was extremely fast, swiftly covering dozens of kilometers.
At this point, Noel's voice suddenly turned excited: "Oh? We discovered an island! It doesn't seem smaller than ours."
Since the Eye of Darkness could only see the surroundings of Noel and the Nightmare Beast, Xia Lin and Fang Ka naturally couldn't see the island Noel was talking about.
Upon hearing this, Fang Ka immediately said: "Noel, have the Nightmare Beast approach it, and be careful."
"First, determine the island's environment and if there are any threats."
Upon hearing Fang Ka's instructions, Noel immediately responded: "Understood, Lord Fang Ka."
Soon, Noel's voice rang out again: "Oh? Such a desolate island? There's not a blade of grass to be seen, just barren rocks everywhere, let alone any living creatures."
"Are you sure?" Fang Ka asked in surprise.
Tina chimed in as well: "Lord Fang Ka, Noel isn't lying, it indeed appears that way. Should we go down and take a look for you?"
The Eye of Darkness could see the situation around the group and the Nightmare Beast; after landing, it could still clearly see the island's condition.
Fang Ka pondered for a moment: "First, hover at low altitude, have the Nightmare Beast slow down. If there's any threat, it might be lured out, and with the Nightmare Beast's reaction and speed, it's quick enough to get you out of harm's way immediately."
Noel's voice immediately sounded: "Lord Fang Ka, you're so cautious, okay, we'll do as you say."
A while later, Noel spoke again: "Lord Fang Ka, we didn't encounter any danger? Should we land to show you the island's condition?"
Fang Ka pondered for a moment, then softly replied: "Alright, be careful, try not to leave the Nightmare Beast's back, ensure you can retreat at any time. Let the Nightmare Beast land so I can see the island's condition."
"Understood, Lord Fang Ka." Noel replied, and soon, the Nightmare Beast landed on the island, and the screen showed the island's scenery.
The surroundings were filled with black and brown stones, appearing extremely desolate, without a single green plant in sight.
Fang Ka recalled the descriptions of the Chaotic Sea Domain in the books.
The Chaotic Sea Domain, also known as the Ten Thousand Islands Sea Domain, has countless islands, most with various peculiar geographical environments, which is quite normal in the Chaotic Sea Domain.
This desolate island, so ordinary and lifeless, with no sign of life, even Gana wouldn't spare it a second glance.
"Lord Fang Ka, should we explore a different direction?" Noel's voice quickly sounded again: "This island probably doesn't even have any bugs to find, just black-brown stones everywhere, nothing interesting at all."
Fang Ka squinted his eyes slightly, then asked: "Noel, you said earlier that the whole island doesn't seem smaller than ours?"
Noel looked around: "Uhh, accurately speaking, this barren island is much larger than ours."
"But what's the use of being big, not a single tree or blade of grass, let alone creatures, here you can only box with the air."
