The location of the "Cloud Hole" is approximately at 66 degrees 14 minutes North latitude and 3 degrees 53 minutes West longitude. Based on the current clues, Emma has spent nearly an entire day cross-referencing and reviewing a large number of nautical charts and satellite maps to calculate the approximate entrance location.
Bai Yujing looked at it and said, "The location should be near the waters around Yangmayen Island. Further up is the Arctic and the Arctic Ocean. This area is sparsely populated, making it indeed hard to be discovered."
According to the nautical chart left by Lemuel Gulliver, a massive "Cloud Hole" appears somewhere in the vast waters where the Atlantic Ocean meets the Arctic Ocean every late July. The months of July, August, and September are hurricane season in this area, and only by passing through the "Cloud Hole" can one reach the legendary Divine Realm Sky Island.
However, the "Cloud Hole" only appears for half a month. If missed, one must wait until the following year. It is already mid-August now, which means time has already passed. Even if one wants to go to Sky Island, sufficient preparation is necessary, so they can only wait until next July to pursue this goal.
Emma bit her pen anxiously, "We have to wait another year; it really makes me feel a bit impatient. I want to see that place right now!"
There were numerous draft papers scattered on the floor. Bai Yujing was sitting at a nearby table, taking photos of everything left by Lemuel Gulliver. Each item was photographed from various angles for preservation, including the nautical chart and logbook for reaching Sky Island. Bai Yujing took pictures of every page of the logbook to prevent loss or accidents.
Bai Yujing gathered everything together and said, "Aren't you about to start school soon? You won't have time for exploration now. Next year when you graduate, I will come to attend your graduation ceremony. Then we can explore Sky Island together. In the meantime, we can make ample preparations. I believe this will definitely be a legendary journey."
Emma hugged Bai Yujing stubbornly, "Now that you say that, I can't wait even more."
"The nautical chart, manual, and this staff are all with you. I need to check the writing on this Golden Disc; it might reveal some clues." Bai Yujing handed Emma the cylinder and staff while keeping the Golden Disc. The text on it had just been entered into the translation system by Bai Yujing. However, this writing seems not just simple text; the Exotic Creature Hunter's translation system is still comparing translations and has yet to yield results, so it may take some time.
The nautical chart and manual have already been photographed; as for the staff, Bai Yujing couldn't discern anything unusual about it. Only this Golden Disc might yield some insights, so Bai Yujing decided to keep it with him.
Emma accepted it and looked at Bai Yujing: "Alright then, I'll take it."
As if recalling something, Emma looked at Bai Yujing with a hint of disappointment: "Are you leaving?"
Bai Yujing shook his head and then nodded: "Not leaving right now; my time in England is nearing its end, but there are still a few days left. Emma, if you’re willing to be with me, you can either come to China after your graduation or I can come to London to find you."
Emma nodded, feeling a mix of emotions as she wrapped her arms around Bai Yujing's neck. She felt both disappointed and happy; this was the first time Bai Yujing had officially acknowledged their relationship. Although they had tacitly accepted it before, it had never been openly stated. Bai Yujing's direct declaration showed that he still had feelings for Emma: "Of course, I'd love to. During winter break, I'll go back to China to see you. I just find it hard to part with you!"
Emma was nearly three years younger than Bai Yujing, which made him feel like an old cow eating young grass. However, Bai Yujing definitely disagreed with that notion. In his heart, he still considered himself a young stud, and he felt very proud that a golden-haired beauty like Emma liked him.
Holding Emma close, they shared a few reluctant kisses. Bai Yujing sat on a pile of scattered draft papers while Emma sat directly on his lap.
"Want to come over? Let's do something we enjoy."
"Of course!"
Emma was wearing a blue and white shirt paired with ripped capri jeans. Bai Yujing slowly began to unbutton her shirt, a task that required patience but felt like a treasure hunt.
With one hand exploring inside the unbuttoned shirt, his lips kissed Emma's delicate neck, trailing down and causing her breaths to quicken as she grasped Bai Yujing's belt while sitting on him.
"Emma, Bai, tonight..." The door was slightly ajar, and when the landlady knocked earlier while checking on them, she opened the door and caught sight of the couple in a critical moment.
The landlady immediately covered her eyes and closed the door: "Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry! Please, continue!"
Bai Yujing and Emma were incredibly embarrassed. This kind of family inn was cozy but lacked privacy. Bai Yujing could only hold Emma and give her a kiss: "I'll go see if there's anything they need from us. Wait for me."
Emma responded affectionately to Bai Yujing, "I'll be waiting for you!"
Bai Yujing tidied up his clothes and rushed outside, where he saw the landlady in the hallway. Upon noticing him, she quickly approached to apologize. Bai Yujing immediately said, "It's okay. Is there something you need from us?"
The boss lady immediately clapped her hands: "I almost forgot to mention, there will be an event at the bar in town tonight. I was looking for you to talk about this. Everyone in town will be there, along with quite a few tourists. It will be lively; do you want to come and experience it?"
Bai Yujing nodded, "Thank you for the reminder. We will go tonight."
Bars in such small towns are usually quite private, mostly frequented by familiar locals. If outsiders attend, it can be awkward and difficult to blend in. However, going with a local introduction would certainly alleviate that issue. Therefore, many tourist spots categorize bars into two types: those for tourists and those for locals.
What the boss lady mentioned was likely a party at the bar tonight. Bai Yujing was eager to check it out and expressed gratitude to the boss lady before rushing back to the room, where Emma was still waiting for him.
Bai Yujing pushed open the door and saw Emma sitting on the bed, her blue and white shirt unbuttoned except for the middle button. Through the open shirt, he could see her toned waist and full breasts. She wore only a pair of white lace panties below, which could not conceal her peach-shaped bottom.
Upon seeing this scene, Bai Yujing couldn't help but swallow hard. Emma noticed Bai Yujing entering and immediately lay down on the bed, raising her long legs and beckoning him with her hand. The glimpse of her fair skin could not hide the deep cleavage.
"What are you still looking at?" Emma licked her finger, her captivating eyes fixed on Bai Yujing. Unable to resist any longer, Bai Yujing closed the door and pounced on her.
With an energy like that of a beast, Bai Yujing managed to keep going until after midnight. By then, Emma was almost entirely submissive, her body limp like a Barbie doll as she was held in Bai Yujing's arms and playfully manipulated.
A few days ago, she would have begged for mercy long before this. Perhaps it was because Bai Yujing was leaving soon that Emma insisted on giving it her all tonight. Although Bai Yujing felt exhilarated, he knew it was time to stop. He suddenly realized how wise it was to improve his physical condition; after all, health is indeed the foundation of everything. No matter how much money or power one has, it means nothing without good health.
Emma lay exhausted on the soft bed and quickly fell asleep. However, Bai Yujing suddenly remembered the boss lady's invitation to the bar party. Checking the time, he saw it was already one o'clock; even if it wasn't over yet, they were definitely in the later half of it and he had surely missed out.
It didn't matter if he missed it; wrapping his arms around Emma, he felt the weather in Scotland had turned a bit chilly while his body felt like a furnace. As Emma unconsciously snuggled closer to him in her sleep, they embraced each other and drifted off into dreamland together.
