Chapter 366: The Fury of the Sea
-West Coast Seas-
After leaving the harbor, the fleet sailed straight to the east of the sea, the huge sailing ships were more agile than the fish that swam well, and the white seagulls were perched on the huge sails, as if to cheer the sailing team. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Ling Feng on the small sailboat quickly became familiar with the adventurers on the ship, these adventurers belonged to two different teams, their names were "Nanfeng" and "Blood Bear", the names were not bad, but Long Ming and they were the first time they had heard of these two adventurer teams. They are also frank in admitting that they are just a small team of adventurers, and they also want to take advantage of this opportunity to make a windfall to grow their team.
Nan Feng's captain is a man with elegant manners, and he and his team are mostly magicians, with only two paladins. The Blood Bears, on the other hand, are almost all rough men, their muscular muscles glowing in the sun, and their professions are almost all melee and high-explosive professions such as berserkers or fighters.
And Long Ming and the others, after talking with these two adventurer teams, also had a better understanding of Qiao An's purpose for going to that mysterious island.
On that mysterious island, there is a rare spar on the Arad continent, and what Joan wants to collect is that kind of spars, although I don't know what Joan wants to do with that kind of spars, but he is willing to pay such a high price to hire these adventurers, what magical use must there be for the spars, right? Long Ming and Ling Feng couldn't help but plan to collect some spars in their hearts and take them back to Norton for research, maybe Norton can know the use of this hedron, right?!
Just when Long Ming was talking happily with those adventurers, the sky in the sea area in front of him suddenly darkened rapidly, and the black clouds surged over, and soon Long Ming and they could see that there was lightning in the black clouds, and the loud thunder came quickly from afar, and even the sea breeze was blowing more fiercely than before. The seagulls perched on the sails flapped their wings and flew away as if they were fleeing for their lives.
"The waves are coming! Attention everyone! From the nearby sailboat came the shout of the helmsman, and the captain immediately commanded the crew to lower the sail, and if it was still hung like this, the mast would soon be blown off by the coming storm.
Long Ming and they looked into the distance, and found that the sea horizon was a little higher than before, and the sea horizon was rising faster and faster, Long Ming and they took a closer look and found that it was a huge wave that was about to hit their faces, and now this huge wave was still a few hundred meters away from Long Ming and them, and they estimated a little that the huge wave might be more than 100 meters high when it came to their eyes.
The sea has also become uncalm, the sea water is constantly undulating, so that the people standing on the boat feel a burst of turbulence, they have to hold on to the fixed objects around them, so that the body is stable, if accidentally turned out of the sailboat, the people on the boat will not stop to save him, which will sacrifice more people.
The helmsmen of each ship held the steering wheel in their hands vigorously, they were engrossed in feeling the changes of the ship, grasping the movement of the ship, and now the lives of the people on the ship were in their hands, and they did not dare to be careless.
The first huge wave soon came to the eyes of the fleet, Long Ming and they really guessed correctly, this huge wave was really more than 100 meters high, and before the wave arrived, the sea water hit everyone's face like a torrential rain.
"Caught!" The captain of each boat shouted at the people on the boat in the loudest voice, in fact, he didn't need to remind them, the people on the boat grabbed what was around them at the first sight of the huge wave.
"Whoa!!" The waves overwhelmingly pressed down on the fleet, and the helmsman controlled the steering wheel to meet the waves, and they carefully felt the direction of the sea, and drove the ship forward with the flow of the water, which could reduce the damage a little.
Because of the precise control of the helmsman, no one was sacrificed when the first huge wave fell, and the damage to the fleet was minimized, but because of this impact, the originally neat fleet became a little messy.
"Don't relax! The second wave is coming! The captain said to the man on the ship who was nervous because he escaped the catastrophe, the captain is not a rookie who sails for the first time, he does not just think that he can survive a huge wave and be safe, the sea has left him too many bad memories in the fast-changing special, and he will never let the tense nerves relax until the danger is completely overcome.
Sure enough, as the captain had said, a second wave soon came again, this time ten meters higher than before, and it was obviously furious that it had not let a person bury the belly of the sea before.
The huge wave pressed down, the overwhelming weight fell on everyone's body, everyone on the boat grabbed the things around them hard, hoping that the huge wave did not wash them out of the sea, and the pressure of the helmsman was the greatest, they did not just hold on to the pallet, but also carefully controlled the steering of the pallet.
But bad luck soon befell each ship, and some careless adventurers apparently did not fully appreciate the horrors of the sea, and it was not only the waves that attacked them, but also some sea monsters that took advantage of the waves to attack the fleet and mingle on the waves. These sea monsters take advantage of the huge waves to hide in the huge waves, and when the huge waves hit the fleet, and the people in the fleet are helpless, the sea monsters will attack, they use their tridents to pierce the adventurers one by one, and pull them to the bottom of the sea, and soon a pool of blood will appear on the surface of the sea, but soon they will be crushed by the surging and fierce sea.
"Damn it!" The captain cursed in his heart, this time he was really unlucky, not only encountered this rare sea storm, but also was attacked by this shameless sea monster. In order to avoid annihilation, the captain immediately instructed the adventurer to stabilize his body while fighting back against the sea monster.
"Fools too! Fire magic is also used in the sea! The captain yelled at a magician who summoned a fireball of fire, and although the fireball he summoned was powerful, it depended on the environment! The fireball appeared less than a second before it was extinguished by the waves, and the sea monster took the opportunity to deal the magician a fatal blow.
"What kind of idiots are these!" The captain looked at the adventurers who were scrambled by the sea monsters, and complained in his heart, so that he would face a great sacrifice before he reached the mysterious island. In fact, it is no wonder that those adventurers have no experience in naval warfare, and now they are like rookies who have just stepped out on adventure, and if they are changed to land, the situation may be much better.
The situation on Long Ming's side is even more serious, the sea monsters will not show mercy to their men because they are in a small boat, on the contrary, they recognize this, thinking that Long Ming is a good bone to gnaw, and they have gathered fire to attack them.
Long Ming's helmsman on the ship bore the brunt of being pulled into the sea by the sea monster, and the small boat immediately staggered from side to side, looking like it was about to be swallowed by the sea, and the people on the boat were all frightened.
Fortunately, Long Ming reacted in time, he rushed up against a sea monster, and the sea monster stabbed at him with a trident, but Long Ming slightly turned sideways and pulled the oars tied to the boat and swept over the sea monster, and then threw the oars in his hand at the sea monster that met behind, and the sea monster was immediately pierced through the body by the oars and flew upside down.
After repelling the two sea monsters, Long Ming immediately came to the rudder, and he grabbed the rudder hard, stabilizing the spinning rudder.
After the second huge wave passed, the fleet was given dozens of seconds to rest, and then the third huge wave came to the face, looking at the inexperienced Long Ming at the helm, the adventurer on his ship immediately turned pale, full of despair, they seemed to see the god of death beckoning to them, they knew that this trip was so dangerous, they didn't want to come, money is important, but it is also necessary to have a life flower.
But Long Ming would not give up so easily, he stared closely at the huge waves that were about to fall and said to the adventurers behind him: "Listen up, the melee profession stands on the outer edge of the ship, resisting the attack of the sea monster, and the magician stands inside to provide support at any time!" ā
After Long Ming finished speaking, those adventurers were still indifferent, under such a terrifying attack by the sea, they had lost their will to fight, and felt that their resistance was in vain.
"Bastard! If you don't want to die, give me action, are you all bad seeds? Long Ming said loudly to the adventurers behind.
Although the adventurers can face death calmly, but they are not allowed to be called a bad seed, they can be regarded as old birds who have experienced a lot of adventures, and now they are said to be like this, where can they bear it, they immediately picked up their weapons and stood in a good position as Long Ming said, and muttered in their mouths, they had to show Long Ming whether they were bad seeds.
"You've taken the helm for Lao Tzu! If something goes wrong with you, Lao Tzu won't let you go! The captain of the Blood Bear Adventure Group shouted at Long Ming.
"Don't worry! Just take care of yourselves, the Great Wave is coming! Long Ming looked at the huge waves in front of him without looking back and said, some sea monsters swam in the middle of the waves openly, roaring at Long Ming with their huge mouths full of sharp teeth, they couldn't wait to tear Long Ming and them to pieces, but everything would not be so easy.
The huge waves are coming, Long Ming controls the rudder against the huge waves and does not let go, but a sea monster has come to his head, Long Ming is immediately faced with two difficult choices, if he releases the rudder in his hand, although he can launch a counterattack against the sea monster, but this third wave is estimated to make their ship capsize, if he does not let go of the rudder, then he will be pierced by the sea monster. Whether to sacrifice himself or the entire boat, Long Ming had a difficult choice.
Just as Long Ming was still hesitating, an ice pick flew from behind him and hit the sea monster, and it was immediately shot down into the sea, and let out an ugly scream. Long Ming turned his head slightly, and found that it was the captain of the Nanfeng Adventure Group who rescued him, and the two of them nodded to each other, and immediately focused on their own battle again.
Long Ming's plan was really effective, with the melee adventurer defending on the outer edge of the ship, the sea monster could not rush into the inside of the ship to attack the magicians, and the magicians could provide strong support to the melee adventurers in the rear, and no sea monster could set foot on the ship for a while. The adventurers also found that Long Ming, a novice, controlled the ship well, although the boat was still jolting, but it finally did not overturn, and the adventurers couldn't help but regain their confidence.
But the sea monster won't give up so easily, since you can't suddenly attack this ship from the outer edge, so let's attack from above! A sea monster rode the wave to the top of the magicians, who only watched the battle before them, and did not realize that danger had descended from above.
The sea monster that fell from the sky set her eyes on a female magician, and in the eyes of the sea monster, her skin was tender and tender, and the taste of nibbling must be very refreshing. If this sea monster is allowed to break into the magician, the camp will be chaotic, and the self-confidence that has been built up with great difficulty will be destroyed again.
"Bang!!" Just as the sea monster was about to hit the sorceress with his trident, a gunshot rang out, but no one heard it because the waves were so loud. However, the bullet pierced through the gap in the sea with precision, piercing the head of the sea monster, and the sea monster was sent flying into the sea before it could scream.
Seeing a sea monster fly out from the top of her head towards her side, the female magician was immediately startled, she looked in the direction where the bullet was flying, and found that Ling Feng winked at herself, the female magician immediately felt a chill on her body, and quickly turned her head, feeling even more terrifying than being attacked by a sea monster.
The adventurers on the ship where Long Ming was were resisting the attack of the sea monster in an orderly manner, and slowly they also mastered the rhythm of the naval battle, and the counterattack became more orderly, the sea monster could not break through their iron wall defense at all, so they had to find other soft bones to attack, and now as long as the rudder controlled by Long Ming can also be stabilized in this way, the adventurers will be able to survive this catastrophe.
"Help!" Just when Long Ming was concentrating on the helm, a small cry for help reached Long Ming's ears in the sound of the waves, Long Ming turned his head and looked at the sea, and quickly found the location of the person who called for help.
The cry for help was a little girl, she only had one head out of the sea now, she was beaten by the waves and couldn't open her eyes, she was pressed into the sea again and again, she struggled hard to swim up, but her struggle seemed so weak.
"Where's the little brat?" Long Ming thought in his heart, and as soon as he finished thinking about it, a huge wave hit the little girl's face, and she also fainted, drifting farther and farther away with the waves.
"It's trouble!" Long Ming complained, immediately let go of the rudder in his hand, and jumped towards the little girl, some sea monsters saw Long Ming take the initiative to jump into the sea, and immediately rushed towards him.
"Get out of the way!" Long Ming yelled at the sea monsters, stretched out his hand and pressed them down, and then jumped towards the little girl.
"Hey! What are you doing? Without Long Ming's control, the ship resumed its turbulence again, and the adventurers on the ship were almost turned upside down, they looked back and found that Long Ming had jumped out, and the sea monster saw that the good time had come again, and immediately surrounded it again, which made the adventurers unable to pull out their hands to take control of the rudder.
"Sliding shovel!" Ling Feng ran towards the rudder, a sea monster stabbed at him, Ling Feng lowered his body and slid over the deck, he approached the rudder, and did not forget to attack the sea monster.
Ling Feng quickly broke through the encirclement and came to the side of the rudder, and he held the rudder to stabilize the ship again. And over there, Long Ming also caught the little girl and hugged him in his arms, but the sea monster also surrounded him, and he had to hold a person without weapons, facing the threat of the sea monster, which made Long Ming frown.
"Woohoo!" A black rope flew from afar, and there was a crossbow arrow hanging in front of the rope, and the crossbow arrow guided the rope to Long Ming's side, Long Ming looked along the rope and found that Ling Feng didn't know when to change into a hand crossbow.
"What are you looking at, why don't you catch it quickly?" Ling Feng yelled at Long Ming.
Long Ming was not stupid, knowing that Ling Feng was rescuing himself, although he was reluctant in his heart, he still chose to reach out and hold the black rope.
Seeing Long Ming holding the rope, Ling Feng immediately wrapped the other end of the rope towards the rudder, and then shouted loudly to the people on the boat: "Be careful not to be thrown out!" After shouting, Ling Feng turned the rudder to the right, and the rudder immediately spun rapidly under the force, and the rope was also entangled to shrink and shorten. The ship immediately flicked quickly to the right, and the sea monsters that tried to climb onto the ship were immediately jerked by the stern.
Long Ming didn't expect that Ling Feng would actually use this method to drag himself back, he was pulled out of the water before he was ready, and those sea monsters stretched out their tridents to attack him, but they were in vain.
Ling Feng could only take this method to help Long Ming break through, he didn't have that much strength to pull them over, and the adventurers on the ship couldn't spare time to come over to help.
Although the solution was very stupid, Long Ming was still pulled back to the boat, he quickly put the little girl on the boat, and took back the rudder from Ling Feng's hand, and Ling Feng also returned to the battle circle to continue to resist the attack of the sea monster.
The battle situation became stable again, this time there were no accidents, after resisting a few rounds of waves, Long Ming and they finally escaped from the storm circle and returned to the calm sea, except for the helmsman, no one on this ship was sacrificed, although the ship was damaged a lot by the waves, but it can continue to drive, this situation can really be regarded as a miracle.
"Whew!" Long Ming exhaled loudly, let go of the rudder in his hand, he let the sail rise again, let the sea breeze drive the ship on, and he could finally rest a little. By the way, the little girl who was rescued didn't know what was going on.
When Long Ming looked back, he found that the adventurers were all gathered together, and that position was the place where he had put the little girl down before, and Long Ming immediately inserted it.
"What happened? Let's make it! Long Ming inserted from outside the crowd, and when he came to the crowd, the little girl he rescued finally fell into his eyes again, he didn't have the opportunity to observe this little girl carefully, but now when he looked closely, Long Ming's eyes immediately widened in surprise, because:
This little girl is actually a fishtail covered with scales from the waist down!
