The goblin soldiers are still climbing over the bulwarks of the Raven and throwing themselves into this bloody white-knuckle battle on the deck of the Avenger, and at this time, the pirates also have a benthic demon fish above their heads, and their morale has always remained high above the level, even if the number of participants is gradually overshadowed by their opponents, the pirates still think that their side has the upper hand.

Flying and kicking the corpse of the dead goblin soldier, and pulling the blood-stained scimitar from the opponent's chest, Boatswain Zola Hegel began to look upwards as he gasped for breath. A few minutes later, the boatswain wielded his scimitar to cut the throat of a goblin guard, and he quickly approached Luo Zhengdao and said:

"Your Excellency, the wind seems to be getting stronger, the situation is not right!"

Hearing this, Luo Zhengdao, who raised his eyes and looked up, also saw that the frequency of the Avenger's upper mast sail shaking was accelerating, which was not an auspicious omen in the unpredictable Aether Sea. After analyzing the current situation in his mind as quickly as possible, Luo Zhengdao said with a dark face:

"Zola, tell Sù Vena to pay attention to the change in wind direction, I'm too busy here, I'll talk about it later."

"Woo woo woo ......"

After only ten minutes, the strong gusts that could only be called irregular strong winds quickly evolved into a rather powerful and relentless roar. At this time, Luo Zhengdao heard Vina Dubov shouting from the deck not far away:

"Will, it's a storm! It's the storm of Mana coming! ”

Unlike the tropical cyclones in the Old World, which were formed by atmospheric circulation in warm tropical waters, the storms in the Aetheric Sea are mysterious events caused by the phenomenon of mana particle runaways, and there is no authoritative explanation for the cause of the storm that can convince everyone, except that the average person knows that it is one of the greatest nightmares of sailors.

Mana storms can be broadly divided into two categories, one is a periodic storm, such as in the Sea of Storms area, where a megamana storm rags about every 60 years or so, and the other is an irregular even-mana storm. Researchers have not yet gathered enough data to analyze the causes of the storm, which so far has been described as an unpredictable and terrifying natural disaster. There is no certain level of strength and weakness of the Mana storm, as long as you spread it, even if the time is bad, all the sailors can do at this moment is to quickly put down all the masts and lie down and pray hard, at this time good luck is more important than anything else.

The boatswain's black face was too nervous to describe the colour, and Zola Hegel cried out:

"Hurry up, what are you waiting for! Put away the sails, it's too late. ”

Just as the sailors were slashing the sail ropes with their swords in panic, and hastily tearing off the sails that had not had time to put away, the raging Mana storm was already intensifying, and the sound of the fierce wind that resounded in the ears could even be said to be like a thunderous roar. The pirates were under the violent natural disaster, and in the recent battle, Modo Blackwater, who had just been stunned by the tentacle of the benthic demon fish, was also set up by the goblin soldiers guarding it, and retreated to the flagship Raven, which had just extinguished the fire, and the battleships of both sides involved in the fierce battle nearby did not hurry up and lower their sails, if anyone's movements were a little slower, it would not be unusual for the whole ship to be destroyed by the storm later!

"Woo woo woo ......"

The wind grew stronger and stronger, and Luo Zhengdao and the sailors fixed themselves to the deck with ropes, and the razor-sharp wind blew on their faces, as if they were tortured. They could feel the hull tumble and spin like a rollercoaster in the storm, and by the time they vomited so much that they couldn't vomit anything, they gradually lost consciousness

"Well, where are we?"

In a drowsy state, Luo Zhengdao only felt that his skull was heavy, and it seemed to be stuffed with mud, and it was so swollen that it seemed to be about to explode. He tried to open his eyes, but the glare shook by the bright light, and his headache worsened, and he let out a feeble moan.

Immediately after, he vaguely felt that someone was coming to him, and Luo Zhengdao asked breathlessly.

The person who came was the boatswain with a few more bruises and blood marks on his dark cheeks, and Zola Hegel looked tired and untied the leather kettle hanging from his waist and handed it to Luo Zhengdao, and sat next to him with his buttocks, looking dejected, and said:

"I don't know. The Mana storm blew the whole fleet away, I searched around with my binoculars, and I only saw the Yangwei, but there was no response to the signal, I wonder if the other ships are also around here, I hope everyone is okay. ”

The boatswain and Luo Zhengdao, who had the strongest physique, were the first to wake up, and most of the sailors were exhausted from the bumpy Mana storm and fell into a deep coma. Now not to mention shouting, even if they beat gongs and drums in their ears, they can't wake up, and those who can barely recover their ability to move on their own can't add up to the number of fingers on two hands.

After gasping for a while and pouring a few mouthfuls of water, Luo Zhengdao forcibly handed the kettle to Zola and said:

"Oh well! Wait for the flares and try to gather our people. ”

Although Luo Zhengdao had been mentally prepared to face a difficult situation, it took a day and a night to reassemble the fleet that had been blown away by the storm, and the difficulty of this matter was still much beyond his expectations.

Thanks to Luo Zhengdao's principle of recruiting sailors, which valued practical seafaring experience and reliability, these veteran pirates were far from the goblins' halfway monks and landlubbers, and were hit by the once-in-a-century Mana storm, and the loss of the pirate fleet was roughly estimated to be within an acceptable range. In the midst of the frightening Mana Storm, which was of terrible intensity and duration, the five battleships of the pirate fleet suffered damage ranging from light to severe, and no fewer than 200 sailors were missing. However, the most amazing thing is that none of the warships sank due to the storm, which is a small probability event comparable to winning the lottery jackpot, and even Luo Zhengdao himself felt that he was lucky today.

Despite this, the pirates were still in trouble, and it was imperative to find an island to dock and repair the damaged warship, and at least restore it to normal use.

The battleships Zhiyuan and Jingyuan each had a broken mast, and the worst situation at the moment was the Jingyuan, relying on Yaling's magic array to strengthen the hull had a good effect, the ship did not sink directly, but it tossed and turned over in the storm for an unknown number of turns, and when people saw it, there was only one hull left, and the sails and masts above the deck were swept clean and slippery by the storm.

"Report, there's an island ahead of the reconnaissance team."

Hearing this, Luo Zhengdao didn't raise his head, and continued to compare and measure with several captains on the chart, waved his hand impatiently and said:

"Oh, that's going to be talked about later. Captain Crimson, can we mark our current position on the chart? ”

Born with a handsome face and a bright smile full of manly charm, coupled with a strong and slender physique, it goes without saying that Brando Scarlet is also a very feminine wanderer, if you question your professionalism simply because of your private life, it is estimated that there will be few qualified candidates among the navy, pirates, and explorers of this era.

Hearing Luo Zhengdao's question, Brando Scarlet Yan put down the scale, shook his head and said:

"It's difficult, Lord Count. We can't wait until we can see the stars at night to observe the constellations and relocate the coordinates on the charts, which we couldn't do before. ”

There have been countless absurd examples of brute action in the old world, and Luo Zhengdao naturally knows that there must be no urgency in the technically difficult things, and the more anxious he is to get results, the easier it is to make mistakes and make other messes in his busyness. So, he shrugged his shoulders to express his helpless and indifferent attitude, and then Luo Zhengdao turned back to the sailor who came to report the news and said:

"Hey, what did you just say? There's an island in front of you? ”

"Yes, Lord Count, in a north-north-northwest direction, about forty nautical miles from us."

Rubbing his fingers, Luo Zhengdao said thoughtfully:

"Well, hoist the flag and order the fleet to come over, and send someone to inform the ships to prepare the harvesting tools and manpower. Alas, this storm is too strong, and our original reserve of maintenance materials must not be enough. ”

Hurrying along the way, the pirates arrived at the newly unnamed enclave before dark with a few wolf-bled warships.

The 6th Squadron, which had gone ashore ahead of the large force to survey the terrain, had already set up several bonfires on the beach to indicate the anchorage suitable for the warship to berth and the place to land on the 6th. As dusk drew to a close, and the last rays of sunlight disappeared into the western sky, several part-time astronomers, who had been waiting for a long time, hurriedly set up their spears and cannons, and began to use astronomical instruments to observe the corresponding position of the island at their feet on the chart. Soon, their observations came in, and the Mana storm was so powerful that it blew the pirate fleet more than 2,000 nautical miles away from Wake Reef toward the Sea of Light. At present, the nameless desert island where they are berthing is remote, barely within the scope of the sea of stars, but it is also very close to the sea of light.

Completing their part of the errand, the amateur astronomers did not forget to add the name of the new island, Storm Island, in the blank space of the chart, in what to the layman would look like in a fancy artistic font, which seemed normal to them.

In the New World, there are no map publishing houses or other institutions that rely exclusively on maps to eat, and it is said that ordinary people go out to travel and do business, and even the charts used by the navies of the great powers are drawn by sending people to the sea to survey and draw on the spot, or even worse, they simply follow the charts of other people's homes.

As you can imagine, the number of unknown areas left blank on those sketchy maps is not ordinary! Once an ordinary merchant ship deviates from the trade route, then don't complain that your chart does not clearly mark the surrounding geographical location, and normal people do not have the quirk of running around the cape. Except for the aristocratic adventurers who have nothing to do all day long, just to have fun and excitement, the pirates are the ones who know these wild places far from the civilized world best. Even so, the occasional encounter with a new nameless island is a trivial matter, and the new world is just too big.
