After leaving Zize Island, the battleship continued to move forward, and there were obviously more islands nearby, and more than a dozen large and small islands were seen one after another in less than a day's voyage.

Slightly larger islands will be visited in person, and there are already 6 islands with greater development value recorded, and it is estimated that the value of the property that can be obtained has exceeded 100,000 gold coins.

"This game is like a Might and Magic game from a century and a half ago, right?"

Lu Cheng had made up some knowledge of the game world before he set off, and he knew something about most of the games from more than a hundred years ago to today, of course, Ocean Century was not really improved from the Might and Magic series of games, in fact, this game is a virtual world at all.

It's just that Lu Cheng has a sense of déjà vu after exploring many small islands in a row recently.

Because there is no accurate navigation equipment, Lu Cheng doesn't know how far away from the territory is now, and according to the speed of the past few days, it is estimated that there is at least a distance of more than 100 kilometers.

"My lord, we have sailed far enough to go further...... I'm afraid we may not find our way back. ”

Lu Nan said a little embarrassed, because his level is relatively low, and the navigation on the ship is almost all based on the naked eye to observe the starry sky and the sun, the distance is shorter, and it can take a little more time to touch back, if it is too far, it is likely to lose its direction.

"Okay, this exploration voyage has been fruitful, everyone has worked hard, and they are ready to return to the territory."

"Observers report, there's fog ahead! Note! There is fog in the sea ahead, and the scale is very large! ”

At this moment, the observer at the top of the mast suddenly pointed ahead and shouted hoarsely.

Lu Cheng and Lu Nan immediately took out their monoculars and looked at the front of the route.

I saw a vast and boundless fog wall suddenly appear on the sea, the height of the "city wall" was more than 100 meters, and the width was not visible at a glance, not only that, Lu Cheng also found that this fog wall was not stationary, but surging and rolling on the sea to rush towards the battleship.

It feels like a terrifying monster that chooses people to eat.

"Right full rudder! Avoid the fog wall! ”

A feeling of palpitations permeated everyone's hearts, and although it seemed to be just a fog, it gave people a terrifying sense of oppression.

The steering speed of the sail battleship depends on the weight of the ship, the speed and the efficiency of the steering gear, and the speed of the ship is not very high at this time, so after only half the back of the ship, the oncoming wall of fog engulfs the entire battleship.

The sails that had not had time to be put away were hunting in the whistling wind, the mainmast creaked under the huge impact, and after entering the fog area, the sea surface also became restless, the wind and waves increased rapidly, and many crew members who were accustomed to the calm sea stood unsteadily and fell unsteadily, and the worst luck fainted directly, and the deck immediately fell into a state of chaos.

"Put the sails away! Helmsman, watch out for the waves! All non-upper deck personnel are in the cabin! Hurry up, hurry up! ”

Lu Nan held on to the railing and commanded the crew below who were almost in a mess.

Bang~

The helmsman was momentarily uncontrollable, and a huge wave violently knocked down the port side of the battleship, and the huge impact almost toppled the battleship, and several unfortunate people were unfortunately swept into the sea by the huge wave that surged onto the deck.

The chances of surviving the water in such an environment are extremely slim.

"Watch out for the waves! Watch out for the waves! ”

Lu Nan was very anxious when he saw that another wave was about to hit, and the tilt of the ship caused by the huge wave just now had not yet returned to the right, and if he was hit by the subsequent huge waves, he would definitely capsize!

Lu Cheng couldn't stand it anymore.

Whack!

After activating the skill, Lu Cheng pressed tightly towards the railing with his hand.

Click~

The wooden railing broke instantly, and Lu Cheng also rushed to the helmsman with this force.

"Get out of the way!"

Lu Cheng grabbed the panicked helmsman and threw it to the railing, and frantically flicked the steering wheel to the right with both hands.

Bang~

The waves swept the stern of the ship so hard that it was almost submerged in the sea.

The successive huge waves kept pushing the battleship, and Lu Cheng adjusted the hull of the ship from time to time, letting the big waves hit the bow or stern as much as possible, and even then it was full of dangers, and even nearly capsized many times.

After I don't know how long, Lu Cheng felt that the waves began to become much gentler, and gradually the sea became calm, except that everything was still shrouded in fog and everything returned to normal.

"I'm sorry, sir." Lu Nan couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into, and he still needed to rely on Lu Cheng to save him in times of crisis, making him feel very incompetent.

Lu Cheng waved his hand, in fact, he also took the risk to take the helm, and when the big waves hit, Lu Nan had no way to take over the rudder, after all, he was not a warrior and did not have such strength.

"How's the battleship doing?" Lu Cheng saw that there was a mess on the deck.

Lu Nan hurriedly said: "I lost 5 crew members, and 60 people were injured to varying degrees, of which 5 were crushed by the guns that broke the chains, and they were seriously injured, and if they were not treated, they would probably die." Two of the guns broke the fixed chain and smashed through the ship's side and lost, and the loss of materials in the cabin was also large, and there were three leaks in the bilge, two of which had been blocked, and the largest damage was being blocked, but the damage area was large, and the ship was seriously flooded. ”

Lu Nan looked at Lu Cheng guiltily: "My lord, we must find a place for the ship to dock as soon as possible, and the ship will sink if we hold on for a few more hours at most." ”

"So serious?" Lu Cheng didn't expect that just a few waves could sink the ship.

"The big hole in the bottom of the ship was pierced by the artillery, and one of them broke the fastening chain and attached another long towing lock, which was thrown from the cabin into the sea and dragged around by the towing lock for half a circle, and then smashed through the bottom of our ship." Lu Nan said with an embarrassed face.

Hell, is this the first ship to be killed by its own artillery?

And what the hell can it not be so dramatic?

Lu Cheng deliberately looked at the damage in the bottom cabin, as Lu Nan described, there was a large hole with an area of nearly 10 square meters in the bottom bilge, and the shape of the elongated bar was very consistent with the appearance of being smashed by artillery.

The crew was trying to nail the planks up, but the water was pouring in so fast that the drains and plugging could not keep up.

"Hurry up and find a place to run aground and repair the ship!"

Lu Cheng was also helpless.

Finding land in the Fog is a matter of the probability that a blind cat will encounter a dead mouse.

However, the dead mouse was found.

"There's land ahead!"

The observers on the mast were so excited that they forgot to report the situation as required.

At this time, no one pursued the observer, Lu Cheng and Lu Nan immediately took out their binoculars and looked ahead.

If there is no more land, the land CD is ready to get on the dinghy and abandon the ship, and the 6 dinghys on the deck have been prepared for a long time, after all, the sea water is almost flooding the artillery deck.

In fact, the fog is not particularly thick, the visibility is relatively good, and the distant shadow is clearly the outline of the land.

Without Lu Cheng's orders, Lu Nan immediately commanded the battleship to rush towards the land.

Before, he was most afraid of running the battleship aground, and now he is trying to make the battleship run aground.

There's no one left.

The process of running aground was very exciting, just like a car running at full speed hitting a wall, even if it was ready to prevent a collision, everyone up and down the whole battleship still cooperated very well to hit the street together.

"Ding~ Dear player, you have discovered Misty Island!"

If given a choice, no captain would want to let the ship run aground, and although the fate of sinking was avoided, it also meant that the damage was increased, and it was not impossible to even fall apart.

The dizzy crew members stood up one after another to clean up the mess of the battleship, and the more seriously injured crew members received extra care, and Lu Cheng took out hundreds of potions to treat the wounded.

It took a whole day to roughly investigate the damage of the battleship, and the good news is that the damage to the battleship has not expanded again, and the bad news is that the battleship does not want to leave without repairing it for four or five days, and this is still under the condition that all the tools and materials meet the requirements.

After the lord leaves the effective range of the initial territory exchange, he cannot use the exchange to buy and sell materials, so he can only rely on collecting materials to repair the ship.

Wood was definitely lacking, and after being under tremendous pressure in the wind and waves, and running aground at near full speed, it was likely that the battleship still had some undetected wounds, which required continued manpower to investigate and reinforce areas that might be damaged.

Let's hope the keel isn't broken.

"My lord, let's send someone to the island to find out what is going on."

As is customary, Lu Cheng personally led a team ashore to explore the island called Misty Island, while Lu Nan was responsible for repairing the ship.

Due to the interference of the fog, although the island was observed on the ship for some time after the grounding, it is not possible to know exactly how large the island is due to the limited range of sights, but judging by the distant scene when the fog is occasionally thin, the size of the island may be larger than all the islands found.

More than 20 of the more than 100 militiamen were wounded and could not participate in the operation, and more than 40 were left to help repair the boats, and Lu Cheng only brought more than 30 people ashore.

And Li Tiezhu also followed Lu Chengdeng to reconnoiter the island again.

The coastline of Misty Island is full of all kinds of reefs, and it took some time to get to the shore with the flexibility of a dinghy, and the beaches on the coastline are all broken branches, shells, and all kinds of floating objects, which look like a garbage dump, and there is a slight smell of saltiness in the air, which makes people smell a little disgusting.

There are not many trees on the island, in fact, only some shade-loving plants can produce normally under the fog for a long time, and the clearing between the sparse trees is overgrown with weeds.

I guess it's hard to find wood in this hellish place!

"Mark it, I don't want to get lost in it."

Lu Cheng instructed, it is difficult to identify the direction in the fog, and if you don't leave a mark along the way, you may not be able to find it.

"Yes, sir." Li Tiezhu immediately arranged for his subordinates to mark all the way.

The team did not separate, and after using swords to cut through the grass and bushes, Lu Cheng and the militia gradually went deeper into the Misty Island to explore.
