In the boundless cold water lake, there is an old ship that has been weathered by wind and rain, and it is unswervingly moving forward.

"Boom!"

The climate in the lake is always strange and changeable, especially in the center of the lake.

Maybe the weather is still sunny one second, but in the next second, it becomes cloudy, really like a child's joy, anger and sorrow, saying that it will change, and there is no room for negotiation.

At this moment, the sky is covered with dark clouds, and the water surface in the central area of the cold water lake.

The wind was raging, the electric snakes flickered, the surging waves of water rolled, and between the heavens and the earth, it was dim, as if even the lake water had turned into gray mud.

On the lake, an old, weather-beaten boat is shaking violently with the waves.

Its masts had all been lowered to minimize the effects of the wind, and only the activated glow-in-the-dark stone, fixed to the top of the cabin, released the last rays of light.

On the deck, the lizardman's lieutenant secured himself with a rope, grabbed the handrail, and said with a look of horror as he and the crew used their abilities to keep the ship sailing.

"Captain, it looks like a hurricane belt ahead!"

"No, the climate in these waters is too weird!"

"If you keep sailing, it's too dangerous!"

The people who can support this place are all experienced crew members, and along the way, dangerous scenes have also encountered many times.

However, this time was different, feeling the unusually violent storm in the waters ahead, Rao was experienced in sailing, and they were all afraid.

Return! Must return! Further, their ship will likely be torn to shreds by a hurricane!

The captain, who stood at the forefront, however, only held the fence with one hand, his body fixed like a nail, and his right hand pressed a monocular against the sunken eye socket.

Through the lens tube, it could clearly see the huge tornado that stretched across the entire body of water between the gray sky and the sky in front of it.

They suddenly appeared without warning, like mountains that are difficult to climb, completely blocking the road ahead.

Even a powerful cultivator with the peak strength of the third order would not be able to move forward in this environment.

Crucially, according to the captain's observations, the storm belt did not appear to be accidental, but persistent and covered so wide that there was no chance that their ships would bypass it.

"Is this the way back?" Standing in the wind and waves, the captain seemed to not be able to hear the roar of thunder, nor the shouts of the crew behind him, and at this moment it had only one thought in its heart.

As the craziest, bravest, most experienced and adventurous captain on Lizard Island, it has a paranoia that ordinary people cannot understand when it comes to exploring the "ancestral land" of the group.

In the past 40 years, it has made a total of six attempts to get to the center of Coldwater Lake, and the first five times were accidents and forced to interrupt on the way.

Now, it is over sixty years old, and even if he has practiced since he was a child, his body is stronger than ordinary people, but the hidden diseases accumulated on his body are almost impossible to suppress.

It can be said that this is the last voyage of its life, and once it gives up, there is no hope of exploring the birthplace of that tribe in this life.

Thinking of this, the elderly lizardman silently lowered the telescope in his hand, and then said, "Go on!"

"What, Captain, you ......," exclaimed the lieutenant in disbelief.

"I say, go on!" the captain repeated his command.

In silence, I don't know how long it was, and I don't know how many psychological struggles they had experienced, these henchmen were silent, with the determination to see death as home, silently using their abilities to adjust the ship, and sailing straight ahead.

"Click!"

Just as the ship had barely advanced a hundred meters, the old ship was finally overwhelmed, and under the tearing of the two waves, several masts shattered, cracked, and broke into countless pieces of wood.

Immediately afterwards, a huge wave tens of meters high surged and slapped towards the ship, directly overturning the ship that had resisted stubbornly in the wind and rain.

The dozens of lizardmen on board screamed in amazement and fell into the raging water.

"Are you going to die......"

The same thought rose in the minds of the lizardmen crew, and the next second, they completely lost their perception of the outside world and slowly sank downward.

At the same time that these lizardmen were unconscious, a figure flew quickly towards the lizardmen's sinking position above the tyrannical cold water lake.

"What a bunch of crazy people, aren't they all brains? There's such a big storm in front of you and you're still rushing inside, and there's no such way to find death!"

After trading the red ointment with the Black Iron Tribe, Lin Fei left Lizard Island, and while going to rescue the lizardmen who had fallen into the water, he generally complained to this group of lizardmen in his heart.

............

A few hours later, on an island far from the storm belt.

When the surviving lizardmen crew awoke from their coma, they saw an island and a storm-worn-out ship stranded on the beach.

The lizardmen who woke up looked at each other, a little incredulous that they had survived.

After a long silence, the deputy finally looked at the captain who had been sitting in a daze, looking at the distant in a daze, and couldn't hide the excitement in his heart and asked, "Captain, ...... we?"

The latter was silent for a few seconds, then sighed and said in a hoarse voice, "We have failed again!"

The crew members who survived the "......" disaster were originally very excited in their hearts, but after listening to the captain's words, most of their excitement suddenly disappeared.

Yes, we failed again......

Seeing that the crew's mood was depressed by his own words, the captain put away the lost expression on his face, showed a relaxed smile, and cheered the crew.

"After every failure, the next time we come back, we will always be closer to the heart of Coldwater Lake than the last time.

Although we failed this time, maybe next time, we will be able to reach the destination we have been looking for in one go, so you don't need to be discouraged. ”

"What the captain said is yes, although we failed again this time, we will not give up, and we will definitely reach our destination on our next voyage. The crew encouraged each other.

Seeing that the morale of the crew had recovered, the captain gave an order, "Everyone go back to the ship, hurry up and repair the ship and start the return voyage." ”

"Yes. The crew then ran to the distant ship and began to repair it.

After the crew left, the deputy came to the captain's side, with a bitter smile on his face, and asked, "Captain, this is the last time you will lead everyone on a voyage!"

"Hmm. ”

"I ......"

"When we return to Lizard Island this time, you will take over the captaincy of our team. ”

"Huh?"

"You don't want to?"

"No, no, no, of course I'm willing to ......"

The captain nodded with satisfaction, looked at the lake in the distance, and said in a firm tone, "We will definitely arrive at the ancestral land in the central area of Hanshui Lake, even if it is another ten, a hundred years, or a thousand years, we will never give up." ”
