Chapter 67: The Stormy Sea

"Everyone prepare, guard your position, it's not the first time for us, prevent collisions, put away the sails!"

Once again, Captain Pete took the helmsman's place and took the helm himself, because he only believed in himself for the rest of the journey.

"Look, it's not that scary, is it?" Cassia said with a laugh.

Brandi swallowed, "I'll go back to the cabin." ”

"Haven't you decided yet?your brother isn't a worry-free master, and you don't even want to find any way out in Kaiadir, it's no wonder that Honoris's territory is too big, how can a person like you be willing to be a vassal of Kaiadir?"

Cassia stood quietly on the deck, contemplating Brandi's future.

And because of the huge area of the stormy sea, even at the edge of it, the night-like clouds overhead seem to cover the entire sky.

Eventually, the Tiger Shark's speed slowed down completely, the sails on the mast were retracted, and a dim shadow enveloped the entire ship.

The cabin was lit up, but the dim light could only illuminate a small area.

Captain Pete, on the other hand, held the rudder in both hands, and his eyes scanned the surroundings without slackening.

If you drive far enough in the stormy sea, you can see the fog between the gray sky and the earth, and a silent ship with few lights on quietly sails past a rocky mountain.

Only the electric light peeking out of the clouds occasionally allowed people to see the scene on the deck.

The Tiger Shark was like this, although it had just entered here, but the sky behind it was already dark, and it was like a ghost ship, sailing into the nameless ghost snake.

"Shh......h Here, everyone should be quiet, although I don't know if any demonic beasts will hear it, but it's better to be prepared. ”

The second mate walked over and carefully reminded that this was his kindness and his duty, because it was not like nothing like this before, and for these adventurers who came here for the first time, suppressing their curiosity was the key to getting out alive.

"Thanks, I understand. ”

"In addition, you can usually light oil lamps, but remember to close the windows, and try not to take it to the deck, you don't have to worry about this, the boats that go to sea are fish oil, although it is a little fishy, but cheap, and you can catch some suitable raw materials on the way. ”

Cassia nodded, and suddenly changed his words: "Have you finished delivering her food?"

"Ah, what did you say?" the second mate was stunned for a moment, his face was dazed, but his right hand had already touched the hilt of the knife at his waist.

Cassia didn't look back, just looked at the strange and deep sea in front of him, like a giant mouth of a demonic beast, engulfing everyone.

"I don't mean anything else, and I'm not interested in orcs, otherwise I wouldn't be here to talk to you. ”

The second mate finally couldn't hold it anymore, his face changed sharply, and his palm was already gripping the hilt of the knife.

"What the hell are you going to do?"

"Don't you think that if she was a rat man, she might be able to endure it, but isn't it a little pitiful that a butterfly man who is supposed to be flying in the forest is locked in a sealed bilge?"

Cassia smiled and turned his head, his eyes staring at the second mate: "She's your daughter......"

"Who the hell are you!" the second mate glared, his voice low with a hint of anger and confusion, he probably never thought that an outsider would know about it.

Even if he imprisoned an orc, it was more down-to-earth than directly saying that it was his daughter.

Cassia sighed, turned around and passed by the second mate, and the fluttering voice fell on the deck: "She still has a long way to go, you can't keep her for the rest of your life......"

After speaking, Cassia walked into the cabin, ready to eat on time, leaving the second mate alone, standing on the deck in a daze.

In the Tiger Shark's cafeteria, Cassia carefully inserted a piece of fresh sea fish and ate it slowly.

From now on, the further they go, the less fresh their food will be, of course, this is only relatively speaking, and the bad food will naturally not be on the table.

Because once they enter the stormy sea, all the ships will not choose to fish here, otherwise it is not certain whether they catch fish or not.

Syllable!

Brandi slumped his plate and sat across from Cassia as if he were at home, looking a bit like Cassia when he first found out he had cancer.

"I've decided! I'm going to Nanriku!"

Cassia slowly cut the back of the fish and picked out the fish bones: "Look, I'll just say that you earned, you used ten gold coins, and you got my fifty results." ”

"Hmph!" Brandi took a bite of the whole fish with the utensils, and said indistinctly, "I think you did it on purpose!"

"That's for your own good, isn't it?" Cassia pointed at Brandi with a finger at him, and said in the tone of an old uncle:

"You're not a salmon, you're a salty crucian carp unique to the waters off the coast of Idoris, with lots of spines. ”

"I'm done, you eat slowly" Cassia smiled and patted Brandi on the shoulder and left the restaurant.

Brandi: "Ahem...... Vomit...... Ahem......"

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

On the third day of the Tiger Shark's entry into the stormy sea, thanks to Captain Pete's superb sailing skills, everyone avoided a 10-meter-long boulder like a blade.

It was the fin on the back of a monster.

On the fifth day, a new crew member who was not willing to be lonely came out to let the wind out, and at the edge of the deck railing, a fish monster the size of a hummingbird jumped out of the water and ripped it off.

Blood stained the water, and the Tiger Shark had to make a makeshift turn around the place.

On the eighth day, a man who had fallen overboard called for help not far away, and the helmsman tried to turn the bow of the boat and rescue the man in the absence of Captain Pete.

But he was slapped off the second deck by the first mate, and when he opened his eyes, there was still any person who had fallen into the water, only a slippery, arm-long sea snake, spitting out letters, staring at the Evil Tiger Shark.

On the thirteenth day, the torrential rain poured down, and the sea surface rolled up huge whirlpools and waterspouts, and the Tiger Shark narrowly slid over the edge of the whirlpool, but was cut by the wings of a bird and monster, and the rope of the mast was cut.

The huge sea breeze instantly propped up the sails, and the ropes like leather bands were pulled out with strange force, sweeping the two sailors into the whirlpool, where they remained forever.

Another sailor was tossed away and became a delicacy for the bird beast.

On the fifteenth day, it was a rare calm day, and even Captain Pete's ship had lost four sailors.

You know, Captain Pete has been at sea for thirty years, and in such a long time, I don't know how many times he has crossed the stormy sea, but every time he has to pray for the favor of the sea god, hoping to avoid those unexpected accidents.

Under the questioning of Cassia and Brandi, they learned that the second half of the journey was really difficult, because there were very few sea lanes there.

Mainly because those who have left their lives here for the sake of exploration are always in high spirits in the first half of the year, trying to find the safest path.

But halfway through, you will be forced by the environment of this devil's land to just want to get out quickly.

So that there are only a few safe roads in the back, maybe two ships enter the stormy sea from different places, then in the second half, they will most likely meet, because there are too few roads to choose from.

This made Brandy, who had never been out of the cabin for half a month, even more frightened, and felt that the whole ship was not safe.

And Cassia didn't care, if he hadn't set the framework with his own hands, he would have been shocked by the scene inside.

On the bow of the deck, Cassia supported Qiding, who did not leave his body, quietly looking at the sea in the distance.

Others couldn't see it, but he could see it clearly, through the thick fog, there was a black shadow in the distance that could almost be described as a mountain, alive, this is the conclusion reached by Cassia.

"Isn't the lesson of the last few days enough? The second mate came over with two glasses of ale, without the slightest impulse of the first day.

Cassia smiled and took the wine glass: "Isn't that kind of demonic beast already in the past?"

"It's in the past, but fortunately it's one, not a group, otherwise the bottom of the boat would have been bitten off. ”

Cassia shook his head, focusing on drinking, not answering.

The atmosphere was silent for a while, and the second mate finally took the lead in speaking, he pointed to the limit of his vision, where there was a palm-like boulder, and said calmly:

"Right there, the captain was the villain of the sea that he met there, but it always runs around, and it doesn't stay in one place for long, I just don't know how it ran out of the stormy sea this time, and this matter has to be publicized back. ”

Cassia took a sip of wine: "The situation should be bad. ”

Of course it's bad, it was Cassia in control the other day, if it was normal to run into that thing...... Cassia couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration for Captain Pete, which had nothing to do with his identity and ability.

The second officer bowed: "At that time, I was still an ordinary sailor, but I still remember the first words of the captain, charge!

"It's amazing!"

"Of course it's great, the captain's father was a knight. ”

Then the second mate seemed to think for a moment, and then continued: "My parents were both adventurers, and when I was fifteen years old, my family went to Nanriku, and when I was nineteen years old, I and Butterfly's mother met the captain's ship on the beach. ”

"So the South Continent isn't an adventurer's paradise, it just makes you die faster. ”

"I know that it is the best choice for Butterfly to live in the South Continent, there is her kindred, yes, but she is my daughter after all, I dare not let her out, it will attract more people's attention, but I don't want her to leave my ......"

Speaking of this, the second mate paused suddenly, as if waiting for Cassia to say something.

But Cassia remained silent until he had drunk the entire glass of ale, then slowly turned around, and once again passed by, and the fluttering words fell on the deck.

"You are very similar to your parents, they chose to take you to Nanlu with you at the age of fifteen, and now it is time for you to choose, I am not her parents, you don't have to wait for me to say anything. ”
