Chapter 356: The Disaster of the Sea
On a summer day, on the Endless Sea, Durotan hid in the shadow of the sails, eating oranges, and asked Brooks, who was studying the charts beside him:
"Old man Brooks, how long do you think it will take us to reach the continent that Izzy is talking about?"
Old Man Blox continued to look at the charts without raising his head, and said: "I don't know, I'm trying to learn about navigation, you should ask the pilot goblin this question, he promised that ten days after setting sail, we will arrive at their goblin Kozan Island for replenishment, and now five days have passed." ”
Durotan listened as if he remembered something, and said with a fierce face, "I think we should listen to Izzy, these goblins have to force them to do things, maybe I should let that goblin understand that if he can't keep his promise, not only will he not be paid, but he will also become fodder for the fish." ”
Old Man Blox thought for a moment: "I agree, but the appointed time has not yet arrived, I suggest that you can give him a little warning first, although the Great Chief has prepared other goblin navigators for us as candidates, but that one may be one of the few reliable among those goblins." ”
As soon as the two of them finished speaking, they saw a short, sturdy goblin trotting all the way over.
"King Brooks, King Durotan, I have bad news for you. ”
The two looked at the goblin curiously, waiting for his next step, and the goblin handed them both a monocular, pointed in one direction and said:
"Do you see the shadow in that direction? I think it's a storm, and it's approaching our position, and it's fast, and we can't avoid him, so I don't think I'll be able to keep my promise to take you to Kozan on time. ”
Brooks and Durotan looked at each other with the telescope, and then looked at each other.
Old man Brooks bent down and patted the goblin on the shoulder, and said: "Captain Vicky, it's not your fault, not being able to arrive on time is not a big problem, what I am more concerned about now is how we can safely survive this natural disaster, and in the face of this situation, we are all laymen, you are professional, so please act quickly." ”
Durotan added, "As long as you can get us through this disaster and help us complete our mission, I promise that you will not only be paid as you deserve, but you will also be rewarded with additional rewards." ”
The sturdy goblin captain, hearing this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he patted his chest and said, "It's wrapped around me!"
Broxs and Durotan listened to the goblin's confident answer, but they didn't feel the slightest sense of security in their hearts, and they remembered Izzy's admonition.
"In the sea, the most feared thing is to encounter this kind of natural natural disaster, and in the face of it, it is often resisted if it can be resisted, and it will be gone if it can't be resisted. ”
"Lay down the sails! Ships are far apart, and you don't want the ship under your feet to crash into each other and fall apart into countless pieces in the storm. ”
Old Man Blox returned to his steel ship, while Captain Vicky methodically continued to issue various orders.
I have to say that the sense of professionalism shown by the goblin at this time is much more reassuring than his bombastic assurance, but Durotan also knows that these are just a kind of protective measures, and in the face of natural disasters, people can often only bear it silently.
The air began to become dull, and the sea, which had been very calm, began to roll up strong winds and waves, and the seabirds also descended from the high sky to the surface of the sea, and flew close to the water, and then, before long, the birds were all gone, and they were gone.
The dark clouds that obscured the sunlight seemed slow, but in fact they were rapid, and the sky soon darkened, and in a moment it was as dark as night, as if announcing the arrival of some terrible existence.
Durotan looked up at the sky against the wind and rain, the dark clouds were overwhelming, and the feeling of rain falling like a waterfall made him feel like he was about to be flattened, and the violent shaking of the deck also gave him a sense of fear that he was in the heart of an earthquake, but at this moment, a dazzling white light flashed, and the sky roared and roared!
The monstrous waves crashed into the ship, taking away a few reckless orcs from time to time, Durotan wanted to shout for command, but the sound of wind and rain and thunder had completely drowned out his voice, and he could only watch the chaos breed and his life disappear.
However, this was not the end, and suddenly he saw something even more terrifying in his sight.
"Is that the wind, or the water?"
With such doubts, Durotan watched as the dark clouds in the sky stretched out his tentacles downward, and the sea seemed to respond with its own lift, raising a column of optimus water.
The next moment the column of wind merged with the column of water, and a terrible waterspout was born.
At this time, Durotan was no longer able to make any effective moves, this was not something that he could fight against as a mortal at all, and Durotan, who was holding the mast, suddenly understood what Izzy had admonished.
This is indeed a terrible disaster that can be resisted, and if it cannot be withheld, it will be gone.
I don't know how long it took, the feeling of the world spinning and the wind and thunder gradually disappeared, and Durotan felt that everything gradually calmed down, and the calm seemed to take away the strength of his whole body, leaving him weak in all his limbs.
Durotan knew that he was too nervous, so he used too much force, and finally caused himself to lose his strength, he shook his hand, and stood up with some weak legs to look at the deck of the steel giant.
"At least a third less. ”
Durotan sadly estimated the number of missing, and then he looked back at the sea, and the other steel ship was gone, except for the two frigates.
"O my ancestors!"
Durotan was frightened at first, and then realized another possibility, those who had disappeared, they were just separated, and they did not sink to the bottom of the sea.
"Lord Durotan, I have arranged for personnel to carry out the overhaul and maintenance of the ship, what do you plan to do next?" Captain Vicky on the side suddenly asked.
Durotan looked at the goblin, who seemed to be fine, and his admiration for the experienced man came naturally.
"Captain Vicky, my idea is to continue my mission, that is, to continue to sail in the correct direction, but you are the expert in this matter, do you have any advice?"
Captain Vicky nodded, and said: "Continuing the voyage is the only option, but the trouble is that I lost our correct position, and there is no reference in this area, I am not sure where we are now, but I will try to find the right route, please don't worry." ”
Durotan nodded, and saw his lieutenant, Drektar, come over with a sad face.
"Chief, two-fifths of the warriors are missing. ”
Du Long sighed: "Count the names of the victims, record them, they have won their own honor for the tribe, I will tell their families so." "Take a hundred plating and read the latest chapter of "Warcraft: Immortal Glory Claw Book House" for free for the first time.
