Chapter 236: The Storm

The sun struggles at the sea level, and the afterglow shines on the calm sea like orange. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoIt's the tenth day of going to sea. For ten days, the weather has been very good and calm, which has made many people's emotions relaxed, and even regarded this trip to sea as a relaxing vacation.

The destination is getting closer. Everything seems to be going well. But Jia Huan has always had a not-so-good feeling, that is, the closer to the destination, the more troubles there are. So as he gazed quietly at the sea level, he seemed to have sensed a subtle change in the natural weather.

And just as he stared at the sky, he also felt a source of power that surprised him. I couldn't help but turn my head to look over, and a man was standing on the top ramp of the cargo ship, facing the sun that was about to set with his eyes closed, and the power was felt from him. It was the Indian Ace Ben.

Jia Huan could hear the incantation in his mouth. It seemed to be a language of prayer, and Jia Huan didn't understand what such a spell would do. When the sun was completely setting, all of a sudden, the dark clouds on the horizon were gathering rapidly, covering the sky and fields, covering the sky, and the black pressure was gathering.

Jia Huan didn't think that this was the Indian, because he felt that the abnormal movement of the weather was not changed by human forces, if such dark clouds were to gather in a short period of time, and it seemed that there was still a huge storm hidden behind, then Jia Huan could directly feel the ability of this chief himself. But he could only feel that the power of this chief was far disproportionate to the power of nature, and he might be able to protect some people or things in the storm, but he could not change the power of nature.

The rapidly gathering dark clouds were like a natural spectacle, and the sky had changed in an instant, as if some monster had swallowed the light in one bite, leaving only darkness.

"Uhh The helicopters on deck were all secured and ready for the onslaught of the storm.

The deck was empty, and the sirens were still ringing bitterly. Suddenly, as soon as Jia Huan turned around, there was suddenly one more person in front of him. Anne, beside her, immediately tightened her grip on the twin blades she had hidden at her waist. It was the chief, and he smiled at Anne, very keenly able to capture Anne's emotions.

Jia Huan stretched out her hand and gently stroked Anne's shoulder, her nervousness relaxed, but she still looked at the Indian without blinking. The chief nodded at Jia Huan and smiled: "Aren't you afraid?"

"What are you afraid of?" Jia Huan said with a smile, "You may not know my specialty......

"I know that Mr. Rickman has told me about the characteristics of everyone here, that you are a fish in the sea, and that Miss Anne is supposed to be a mermaid in the sea, so I know that you are not afraid of the so-called storm, and that everything can be handled by you. They need people like you!"

Jia Huan smiled slightly, did not deny it, and did not admit it.

The chief continued: "Do you think this is a miracle of nature, we have spent so long on the sea, it seems too calm, and it may be time to bring us some pepper soup today." ā€

"Aren't you afraid? because you're the chief?" Jia Huan looked at him and smiled, "I saw that you were chanting words on it, were you chanting a spell?" and your speed is very fast, and it is really surprising that you can appear in front of me in the blink of an eye!"

"I'm also surprised, because of this little girl next to you!" the chief smiled at Jia Huan, he felt that Jia Huan was just an ordinary person, or someone with some talents who was stronger than ordinary people. He can't see through Jia Huan at all, but he can see through Anne, Anne's specialness, ordinary people can't feel it, but people like the chief can feel it, because he is a person with special abilities.

Jia Huan smiled and didn't speak. Anne looked at him very vigilantly, and to be honest, when the chief came in a flash just now, she was sure that she would have stuck two knives in him. Fortunately, she is not such a girl who has no sense of right and wrong. He is also very kind at heart, and he will not kill innocents casually. She has always believed that no one will pose a threat to Jia Huan.

"What do you want to say?" said Anne with some unceremonious expression, "you don't need to be surprised by me. As long as you don't provoke us, it's enough. She clearly expressed her point of view, Jia Huan still appreciates her very much, has her own opinions, and will not become like a vine without a backbone because she is attached to herself.

"No, no, we all have the same purpose. We'll take care of each other in the future. You're a good girl!" said the chief, and reached out to touch Anne's head, but his hand was gone, and he was surprised. In exchange for Anne's angry glare, and he also felt the eager murderous intent in Anne's eyes.

Except for Jia Huan, no one can take the initiative to touch her, this is her bottom line. It was clear that she had become impatient with the chief who had violated her bottom line, after all, she was still a child. The control is not very good.

The chief had never had such an experience before. In the past, as long as he stretched out his hand, no one could leave his palm. This time, too, he felt that even a person like Anne, who was a little different from ordinary people, should not leave his palm, and he also used this action to test Anne's strength.

Obviously, Anne's strength is stronger than she thinks. This also made him put away his contempt. looked at Jia Huan again, and when he realized that he was really just an ordinary person, he still shook his head and sighed: "It's a pity." With that, he walked away.

"What does he mean by that?" Anne asked Jia Huan vigilantly.

"It's nothing, it's just a mediocre person, although he has some ability, but it's very shallow!" Jia Huan defined the Indian and shook his head. "Let's go back to our room, we are alone outside, and we are suspected of being in the limelight. Anne smiled and left with Jia Huan's arm.

Storms bring harsh conditions on the sea. Huge waves swept in, making the large cargo ship sway in the wind and waves, and the orders of the captain, the first mate, and the roars of the crew were constantly heard.

The waves rushed onto the deck, and the huge undulation made everyone in the ship feel uncomfortable, and some even vomited to the point of weakness. Even the sturdy ones like the mercenaries vomited and wailed because they were not used to the sea.

This was the first time that the sea tested the entire crew. And Jia Huan also felt that the closer he got to the destination, the more frequent this kind of bad weather would be. This is a huge test for all the crew.

The storm lasted for more than five hours, and it gradually stopped in the middle of the night. The clouds also disappeared quickly, and when the stars were visible in the sky again, everyone let out a long breath. They rushed to the top of the deck, they needed to breathe.

The following day, the wind was beautiful and calm, which made many people breathe a sigh of relief, thinking that this was just an accidental phenomenon, and presumably the weather would not be so bad in the future. In this storm, one of the crew members was injured, his wrist was cut, and he was bleeding profusely, and he almost died.

But unexpectedly, at dinner, Jia Huan met Rickman in the restaurant. He took the initiative to come to Jia Huan. He saw Jia Huan from afar, then came over, sat opposite Jia Huan and Anne, put down the plate, and smiled at Jia Huan: "Have you experienced the power of the sea?"

"It's nothing, it's not the craziest storm I've ever seen, I've seen more. Jia Huan smiled at him, "What's the matter?" he said very directly.

"Well, then I'll get straight to the point. Rickman thought for a moment and said, "There's a meeting at half past eight tonight, and I need you and Anne to go together, and in the conference room on the second floor, I want you to know a little bit about it, and it's good for us." We're almost close to our destination, and we've got three more days, and three days is critical, but we could be in a worse situation than we were yesterday, you know what I mean?"

"Okay, I got it, I'll be on time. Jia Huan nodded.

When I went to the meeting in the evening, Jia Huan and Annie's positions were arranged in the corner. He didn't mind at all, just kept looking at the people in the room, some of whom he knew, some of whom he didn't. The chief sat next to the first place in the middle, nodded to Jia Huan, waved hello to Anne, and called her name: "Hey, Anne!"

Anne didn't pay any attention to him. However, the chief didn't care at all, still smiled and nodded to Jia Huan, and then turned sideways and whispered something to the person sitting in the middle. The person next to him was a middle-aged and elderly man in his fifties, with silver hair, a burly figure, and emerald green eyes, looking like a zombie and silent, and there was no expression. But when the chief spoke, he listened attentively. And he kept nodding his head.

In addition to the chief, there is also Dr. Emilia, and of course, the fat man Rickman and Jia Huan have seen, what is the name, Jia Huan doesn't know. But he knew that he was on an equal footing with Rickman. But they're a bit of a bit back and don't seem to be one of the most important characters.

Some of the people on both sides were talking in a whisper, some were solemn, and some were secretly observing the burly middle-aged and elderly man with silver hair sitting in the first place. Everything seems to be centered around him. The chief was clearly one of the people he relied on, and on the other side of him sat a woman.

A woman who looked very pale, and had a gloomy expression, and did not smile. She sat motionless, as if carved from clay and wood, but the woman, the man who sat on the throne, seemed to have great respect for her. Leaning over from time to time, whispering something to her, very cautious.
