Chapter 53: The Dragon of the Sea

The group cleaned up the cabin and threw the bones of the Vanesians into the sea.

Nearly an hour later, Vicchily and Jeanne walked to the deck with a few steaming bowls of food.

"I'm really lucky, there are still some coals left in the galley in the cabin, and the cutlery and pots and pans are still clean, come and eat something, Draenor, don't you love Jeanne's dishes?"

Draenor turned around and walked over to Vicilico and took the stew in her hand, thyme, black pepper, still familiar taste, he was already hungry, where could he care about any unhygienic things, took the stew and poured it into his throat.

"Hahaha, Mr. Delanor's eating is still as bold as ever, eat slowly, Mr. Delanor, the soup has splashed on his clothes." Jeanne covered her mouth and smiled.

"Well, I can't guarantee anything else, just when it comes to eating, this guy is really an expert...... Ay? Jeanne, have you regained your eyesight? Vicilly noticed something unusual, and she quickly reached out and waved it in front of Jeanne's eyes.

"Thanks to you, Miss Vicky, I can almost see some of the shapes faintly." Jeanne turned her head to Viklico and smiled.

"Then why are you still around that gauze?" Vicchily wondered if anyone who had regained his sight should be excited to open his eyes and enjoy the joy of regaining his light, but Jeanne was still blindfolded with a thin strip of gauze.

"Actually, I've noticed since I put it on, although I can't see things in front of me completely, but I can use this method to improve the sensitivity of hearing and smell, and the eye injury before is precisely because I rely too much on vision, I hope to take this opportunity to reflect on it and make up for the previous carelessness."

Jeanne said as she picked up the soup and tasted it carefully.

This girl was unusual, and when she first met her, Vicilly thought that Jeanne was a simple-minded brute with well-limbed limbs like the rest of the tribe. But Jeanne proved to be a mature child at heart, and she was able to gain experience through setbacks and battles, which may be what made her stand out from the tribe.

In fact, the people of this tribe are not barbaric at all, they are hospitable, and they know etiquette very well, and their hearts are as pure as a clear stream.

Hopefully, the rest of the tribe will now be able to live in peace as always. Vicillia thought to herself, picked up the stew, and enjoyed Jeanne's craft.

As the fog receded, the silhouette of the sun slowly tangent to the sea level, and the setting sun turned the entire sea into crimson lava, and the sea danced like a waltz with a hurricane, stirring up stormy waves.

Several huge black figures churned in the waves, their heads spraying beautiful splashes, splashing in the air and filling the sea.

"That's ...... Whale? Fascinated by the spectacle before him, Draenor dropped the bowl to the ground and turned to the end of the deck.

"It's a school of humpback whales, it should be a group of fish hunting in the current, I've seen pictures in picture books before, but it's really shocking to see it with my own eyes!" Viklily pulled Jeanne to the edge of the deck, and Jeanne removed her blindfold, struggling to observe the black shadows rolling in the distant waves with her still blurry eyes.

"But don't you think it's a little strange?" Draenor stared at the group of whales with a serious expression.

"If it's hunting, where are the fish?"

Vickyrie also noticed the abnormality, indeed, those humpback whales are not as open their mouths as they are in the impression to devour the seawater, it stands to reason that there should not be so many humpback whales in the southern seas, this animal prefers the cold waters, why would they run into the warm southern seas? Rather than hunting, they are more like fleeing from the wilderness, scurrying around in the waves without a leader.

Something seemed to be wrong, for just in the deep sea behind the whales, a huge shadow was winding after them.

"That thing...... OMG! Draenor had noticed the great shadow, it didn't look like a creature that would appear in reality, but when the beast broke through the sea and lifted its head high in the air, he couldn't be more sure.

"It's the Dragon King Whale!" Draenor shouted, and Vikirico reacted immediately, turning and running to the rear deck, struggling to turn the rudder to the other side.

"Draenor, full sails! We're going to get away from that monster! ”

Draenor was about to leap to the mast of the jig, and he tore the rope off, turned and galloped to the back deck, where he fastened the rope to the rudder.

"Jeanne! Let's help! ”

Jeanne ran to Draenor's side, and with him grabbed the rudder and pushed it in a clockwise direction, the rope tightened with tension, and the spinnaker gradually leaned to the left side of the deck, catching the wind that was blowing, and pulling the ship towards forty-five degrees east-south.

The high angle of the bow of the ship broke through the oncoming waves, and the shattered waters struck the deck like a torrential wind. Draenor saw the monster on the western surface of the sea rush its upper body out of the sea, opening its jagged bloody jaws to attack the group of humpback whales.

"Hold on!" Viklico shouted, tying herself to the deck with a twine rope around her waist, and Delano and Jeanne ran to the side of the deck, their hands gripping the deck handrails tightly.

The monster fell in the distance like a broken mountain, and its nearly 100-meter-long body slammed into the sea, stirring up a huge wave that obscured the sky and the sun. The ship was lifted by the oncoming waves more than ten meters high, and the entire deck was tilted nearly forty degrees towards the waves.

"Boom-boom!!"

The tide washed over the deck, making her dizzy and her entire face almost iron-blue.

The waves swept in and towards the east of the ship, and the ship gradually regained its balance, rising and falling in the aftermath of the waves, like a seagull struggling only in a storm.

The sea gradually returned to calm, and the water flowed down the sloping deck to the sides and returned to the waves, leaving only the stinking corpses of the seaweed and strange sea creatures.

Vicilico untied the hemp rope around her waist and kicked away the struggling and jumping sea fish around her and walked towards the two of them.

"How are you? Haven't drowned yet, have you? Vikiriko patted Draenor's broad shoulders and said.

"Leave me alone, Jeanne looks uncomfortable!" Draenor said, leaning on the dish-faced Jeanne.

Jeanne held the deck with one hand and covered her mouth with the other, tears streaming down the deck.

"This little girl is seasick, and it is inevitable that she will encounter such bumps on the boat for the first time. Didn't you buy some fruit before? Bring me the lemons! Viciliko shouted at Draenor.

Without thinking too much, Draenor turned and kicked open the cabin door, grabbed a few lemons and ran back to the deck. Viklico took the lemon, stabbed it with her fingernails, and squeezed the juice into Korangna's mouth.

"I used to know from sailors I knew that seasickness was inevitable during the voyage, but lemon juice was effective in relieving this nausea." Vicchily said as she lifted the back of Jeanne's neck with her hand, and she didn't seem so uncomfortable anymore.

"Miss Vicky...... Thank you, I feel much better, but I'm glad I didn't throw it up, otherwise dinner would have been wasted......" Jeanne said with a wry smile.

"It's okay, the degree of seasickness varies from person to person, but fortunately, Draenor was prepared when he bought something." Vikiriko and Draenor looked at each other and smiled, and lay down on the wet deck and took a deep breath.

Draenor looked at the fading whales and the terrifying monster, and turned his head to look at the route marked on the map.

"Is this just the beginning? It's really choking......"
