Luca quickly reached the point of impact and looked down. The pitch-black sea surface was littered with broken planks, many of which had already rotted.
Among them, he even spotted a half-broken rudder and some tangled ropes, most likely from a sunken ship.
At that moment, Isaac approached and reported, "Sorry, Lord Luca. A ship suddenly appeared on the sea surface ahead, and the helmsman didn't manage to steer in time before colliding with it.
"It seems that a sunken ship was caught by an underwater current and brought to the surface. Fortunately, the hull wasn't damaged."
Luca didn't respond immediately. He turned to look at Ellie, who was frowning nearby, and asked, "Is this the danger you mentioned earlier?"
"Yes," Ellie nodded, her expression concerned. "There are many underwater currents and reefs in this area. A ship that collides with them could be destroyed, and the further into the Strait we go, the more frequent such incidents become."
