Rush rush rush rush...
Squeak... Squeak...
The sound of wind, rain, and the warship’s wooden structure deformed the crew’s ears.
The storm that has been going on for two days is still raging. Although the wind and waves have eased a little at this time, it is still very dangerous for a sailing boat alone on the sea.
It can only be said that it is the open sea. After the weather changes, it feels like entering another world. At least in offshore locations, Irving has never seen a storm of this scale.
In this natural disaster, the Black Sea became worthy of its name. The pitch-black water rises like a series of endless peaks, and the "Conch" is like an apple, rolling down from this "mountain" to another "mountain" without end.
The downpour seemed to have turned the sky into another piece of sea. The sea and sky were hanging upside down. The crew of the "Conch" almost suspected that they would fall into the "sky" in the next second. Unable to float.
Fortunately, every dangerous situation "Conch" has persisted!
Take a breath.
Aiwen stroked the "Black Iron Cross" awarded by the Goddess Church on his chest. The appearance of the medal in the enchanted transcendent aura remained unchanged.
He also couldn't tell whether it was because of the luck of the "Conch" itself, or because of the goddess' blessing, which really protected the wearer from the sea!
A sudden storm made Ivan know firsthand how important a safe route is after entering a high-risk area in this world. Not only because of distance, reefs, replenishment points, and convenient seasonal ocean currents, but also because of this natural disaster like a common meal!
At least in the Naval Academy, he once understood that, whether it is the Black Sea or the Treasure Sea, there are very few storms of this scale on the routes that have been opened.
Otherwise, if every ocean voyage has to go through several waves of natural disasters of this level, few ships except battleships should be able to survive. An entire ocean-going fleet is engulfed by the sea, and it does not need several times for a small country. Bankrupt!
Aiwen stared at the dark sea outside the porthole, hoping that this storm would end immediately.
Suddenly he felt something in his pocket shook slightly.
"This is... the "Treasure Key" from the "Sharktooth"?"
Aiwen took out a bronze key that was radiating green light with slight rust. If it hadn't changed suddenly, Aiwen had almost forgotten its existence.
But before Ivan could study the key carefully, he was interrupted by an excited shout from the deck.
"Look, there is an island there!"
Because of the super storm, Ivan had already put his seabird scouts into the cabin for a long time. At this time, even Haiyan, who was known to be able to fight in the storm, was not worth it.
It wasn't until he heard the call of the watchman on the ship that Ivan realized that he had been bumping at sea for so long and finally found a place where the sailing boat could shelter from the wind.
Irrespective of thinking about the changes in the key, Ivan pushed out the door.
In the dimly dim vision in the wind and rain, the moment that seemingly not too small an island was completely printed on Aiwen, there happened to be a lightning bolt that seemed to be able to split the sea.
"Ok?"
Ivan found himself in a daze. The island in the distance seemed to be a giant curled up in the sea with a crown on his head. But after blinking, the lightning disappeared and everything was back to its original state.
Shaking his head, Ivan didn't pay too much attention to the abnormality just now.
Because of his strong physique as an extraordinary knight, coupled with the excellent balance of "White Sail Swordsmanship", the storm had little effect on him.
But the crew did not have his ability to fight the storm for two days. Even if there may be the goddess' protection in the dark, they have reached their limit by now.
The sailors desperately need a repair!
What's more, if the bumps continue like this, he is not sure whether the "Conch" will actually capsize when another big wave comes?
At least the old patriarch who gave him the medal at the time hasn’t said that this medal can shelter a whole ship...
"Go ahead!"
Soon at Irving’s order, the "Conch" completed its turn under the control of the sailor on duty, slowly approaching this seemingly large island, and berthed in a small bay with a small entrance.
The gap is obvious, and the wind and waves in the haven immediately became smaller. With the toughness of the sailors, they couldn’t help but cheer at this time!
"Alive!"
"Goddess Bless!"
Every extreme astronomical phenomenon on the sea is a sentence of death. How can they not be excited after abruptly escaped?
After anchoring and lowering the sail, some people were left to guard the warship, and most of them came to the shore in small boats.
It rains heavily, the first thing they want to do is to find a camp that can block the rain.
Aiwen has already sent a needle-tailed Swift, which is more adaptable to bad weather, to investigate the island. After landing, he led a team of more than 100 people straight to the depths of the island.
Because during the investigation just now, Ivan was surprised to find that these people on this island were obviously not the first guests to visit. There are already many man-made buildings behind the jungle on the island!
"Be careful everyone!"
At this time, the crew also noticed the anomaly. In the jungle on the side of the bay, there was a path that was obviously walking around.
With the growth rate of plants on this island, if no one has been active here, maybe it would not take a month, this path will disappear completely. Obviously, there are still some "residents" on this island.
Involuntarily, everyone silently put their hands on the saber on their waist.
A group of people landed on the island without any concealment and walked through the jungle in the mud. The noise was not small. Maybe they have already entered the sight of the "residents".
suddenly.
Aiwen and Milan simultaneously looked at a place where the trees were overgrown with weeds.
"Where to run?!"
Beside them, with a loud shout, the feet of the strong young man like an iron tower slammed, and they were already roaring out like a cannonball.
The small trees and vegetation along the way were directly crushed by him.
was already tens of meters away in the blink of an eye, and the big bronze hand pulled from behind a big tree, and a figure hiding in a wide leaf was pulled out.
Without the slightest nonsense, Gary pulled the figure by the collar, several leaps have returned to the main unit, and thrown him to the ground.
噗通
"Gary, good job!" Gary's promotion that day was obviously very smooth, he did not need any acquired practice to achieve the physical fitness of the late probationary period, which can be called an extraordinary talent.
Without the aid of a "data-based vision" for Irving, the speed of improvement might not be comparable to him. After nearly a year of systematic extraordinary swordsmanship and breathing techniques, he has already reached the threshold of breakthrough.
After being catalyzed by top-grade potions, the breakthrough process is very smooth. Now I am cooperating with the "Essence Fruit" for recuperation, and I should be able to complete the subsequent transformation within this week and become a true extraordinary knight!
A group of people looked down at the "indigenous people" lying on the ground in ragged clothes.
Although the dirty clothes on his body are a bit tattered, his appearance and race are obviously similar to those of himself, and he is obviously not a native of any desert island.
"Ah! Don't kill me, don't kill me!"
Without waiting for Aiwen and the others to ask questions, this guy already screamed like a pig when he landed, hey, even the language is the same.
"What is your name? Who are you? Why are you on this desert island? Is there anyone else?"
First Mate Borg couldn't stand his cry and kicked him impatiently.
"Oh! A few of my companions and I are just poor sailors who are in trouble. They just came to see when they heard the movement. Thank the gods, a boat really came to take us out of here!"
The figure who claimed to be the shipwrecked crew explained their situation pitifully, and asked Aiwen and the others to take him and leave with his companions.
"Take him, let's take shelter from the rain."
At this time, Ivan had already noticed a tattoo on the "wrecked crew member" because of a hole in his clothes. He smiled playfully but didn't break it.
"Get up, don't lie on the ground, we are the navy of the Kingdom of Falitis, and we won't do anything to you." A soldier has already stepped forward to support him.
"Yes, yes, Lord Navy!"
Soon, a large group of troops came to the front of a wooden building.
"You guys are still very diligent! Do you just build a house if you live on a desert island and do nothing all day?"
Looking at it, although the scale of this wooden building is not too exaggerated, it is not a problem to live at least one or two hundred people~EbookFREE.me~ It happens to be the same as the crew on a sea-going ship.
And the time for this house to be built is a few years away. In the mud and grass behind this house, another stone building community can be vaguely seen.
The "data-based vision" has automatically eliminated the obstructions and marked out the main appearance of the building. These are a few tetrahedral pyramids that are very rare in the outside world. Although it may be uncomfortable to live in, the foundation is first class. One's solidity.
But now there is only a dilapidated appearance, it is said that the cultural relics from hundreds of years ago are believed by people. It may not be noticed at all when the sight is dim, but as long as I observe carefully like Ivan, it is not difficult to find that the scene is completely different from the description of the "distressed seaman".
ignored the sudden changes in the faces of the "troubled crew" around him and the excuses that had already come to his lips.
Aiwen pointed at the building with fire, and ordered: "Control the people inside first."
"Yes, sir!"
As soon as the voice fell, a group of wolves like tigers drew out long swords and rushed towards the wooden building. The shouting sounded and disappeared quickly.
"Let's go! Mr. ‘Fallen Seaman’, oh, it should be said that it’s the pirate in trouble." Ivan had already seen the pirate tattoo on his shoulder, and he was still an old acquaintance...
Reminiscent of the "Bronze Key" that had undergone strange changes before, Ivan felt that after a heavy rainstorm, it might finally be time for his time to turn.
