Chapter 124: The Divinity of the Sea
The next day, after everyone woke up, Ye Ye took them to the hole on the edge of the island that was full of wreckage of all kinds of ships. As soon as he heard that his boat might still be there, the excited Dikalt immediately led the sailors into the cave, despite the fact that the tide was still high. Ye Ye inevitably followed, but he naturally did not soak his body in the water, but walked steadily on the water like a flat walk, making the others feel more awe, and he was almost sure in his heart that this stranger who could fight and kill the cyclops and now stand on the water was a certain god who descended to earth, no matter how bad it was, he was a descendant of the blood of the gods, and he was definitely not a mortal anyway.
Entering the cave, this group of people was also taken aback by the huge number of ships inside, it is conceivable how many innocent shipwrecked crew members have been buried in the mouth of the cyclops over the years, making them sigh and at the same time be more grateful to Ye Ye, the savior who came out of nowhere.
"Fortunately, there is no major damage to the keel, as long as the ship is repaired again, it can continue to go to sea."
After inspecting the latest condition of the ship, Dikalt breathed a sigh of relief that the old fellow's damage could be related to whether they could leave the island, and he couldn't help but care. Now it seems that their luck is good, although most of the ships around them are unusable, it should not be difficult to remove enough material from them, and there are many trees on the island that can be cut down to repair the ships, although the wood that dries quickly is not as durable as the dry ones, but at least it can get their ships back on the ground.
So at his command, many sailors who saw the hope of getting out went into a hurry, most of them helped to repair the ships, and a small number of people searched around the island for wild sheep, wild fruits, water storage, and other food and water to go to sea, ready to use.
Ye Ye naturally didn't need to do these chores, he happily pulled the same idle shipowner Lao Leto to the side and chatted, intentionally or unintentionally inquiring about the situation and customs of the Greek city-states. In the strongest world in history, Ye Ye, who flew all over the world, had also been to Greece many times, and he was no stranger to the geographical distribution of this country, but the ancient Greek civilization in the mythological era and the modern Greece in the twenty-first century are obviously the same as the general terrain, and the others can be said to be completely black-eyed.
During the conversation, Ye Ye also fabricated for himself the origin of an oriental country that was farther away than Asia Minor, dispelling Old Leto's curiosity about his origin, anyway, the origin of various city-states and races in the Greek civilization circle in these years was as chaotic as a pot of porridge, and outsiders had long been accustomed to it.
――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
The white sails were full of puffs, and the wind drove the hull of the ship to cut the waves above the sea, and the old Leto stood at the bow of the ship, his face full of relaxation and happiness. Although most of the shipload of spices brought back from Asia had sunk into the sea during the storm, and the rest had been flooded and wasted, it was a great blessing to be able to save a life. In the cave full of shipwrecks, the sailors were pleasantly surprised to find that many of the goods carried by the ships were still there, saffron, olive oil, furs... Piled up, most of the cargo was as rotten as the ship that transported them, but it was still enough to fill the ship's hold under the picking.
What's more, the lord who came here from the far east also gave Old Leto a wonderful treasure!
Thinking of this, old Leto's face could not help but bloom with joy, he couldn't help but take out a metal lighter from his pocket, opened the lid and pressed the switch with a trembling look of extremely reverent concentration, and watched with a fascinated face as a cluster of flames burst out of the metal.
"The great Prometheus did everything possible to steal the fire for us from the hands of the gods, but this small thing can summon flames with a slight knock, such a delicate and light workmanship, not a metal shell of bronze or iron, such a magical effect, it must be an artifact that only gods can make!"
Old Leto couldn't put it down, and fumbled with the lighter for a long time before reluctantly putting it away. He could fully imagine that if he offered this artifact to the king, then the reward would be enough to make up for the profit lost in this trade, but how could old Leto be willing to do this, he had already decided to collect this treasure and pass it on as a family heirloom from generation to generation, which was also a memorial to his own adventure of nine deaths.
Syllable!
The waves splashed, and a bluefin tuna, nearly the size of a man, was thrown from the sea onto the deck, jumping around with drops of water on its tail, interrupting old Leto's reverie.
Immediately after, a figure sprang up from the sea and jumped to the deck with ease.
"Honorable Ye...", old Leto hurriedly stepped forward respectfully, but his mouth involuntarily knotted, although he had been together for several days, he was still very unaccustomed to the strange monosyllabic name of this distinguished guest from a distant foreign land.
"Brother Leto, will you come and try it too?" Ye Ye, who was wet all over, greeted warmly, and the index finger of his left hand touched the head of the fish, and his sharp energy was as sharp as a needle prick to destroy the brains of the bluefin tuna, and at the same time, the index and middle fingers of his right hand were pressed together on the fish, and the tender fish meat was peeled into sashimi as thin as paper silk like a sharp blade, and it was comfortably sent into the mouth.
Old Leto also sat down and feasted, although eating fish was almost a symbol of poverty in those days, but these sailors who had been adrift on the sea all year round were an exception, and it was completely routine to make a few fish to make a tooth sacrifice while sailing on the sea. Naturally, they could not have imagined that after a few hundred years in Greece in the classical era, fish and meat would become a luxury, and it would be difficult for ordinary people to eat it.
Although there are no condiments such as orange juice and mustard, in this world where the aura of heaven and earth is abundant and unpolluted, even the fish meat has become extraordinarily sweet, Ye Ye ate it heartily, and almost ate most of the bluefin tuna, before he said hello to Lao Leto and returned to the cabin with satisfaction.
Closing the hatch, Ye Ye sat down, he was not bored enough to catch fish to eat, but to deal with another important matter. Closing his eyes and looking inward, Ye Ye found that the ball of ocean divinity from the cyclops in his body was obviously smaller than it was at the beginning, and at the same time, it had become much more docile.
"Well, sure enough, this sea divinity still needs to be digested more quickly in the marine environment, and at this rate, I will be able to absorb it completely before I reach Crete, and I won't leave a trace. When the time comes, even if Poseidon himself stands in front of me, I will not be able to see the origin of this mass of divinity. ”
After killing the cyclops, the system consumed the esserior points at any cost under Ye Ye's order to analyze the divinity of this ocean little by little, and the scene reflected in the spiritual consciousness was that the periphery of this azure miniature ocean turned into wisps of white mist and merged into Ye Ye's body, although it was small, it was shrinking all the time.
Different divine attributes bring different abilities to the host, but no matter what kind of divine power it is, it will improve the host's basic physical fitness. Since Ye Ye has reached the level of a master, he is already strong to a certain point, and the divinity of the water attribute is not known for strengthening, so it has not made him much progress in terms of strength and speed, but this does not mean that it is completely useless.
Just like what Ye Ye felt at the moment, as the ocean divinity was absorbed by him little by little, that warm but vast power was gradually making his body more tough and strong, especially the recovery power that was already beyond ordinary people, it had made a great improvement, it could be expected that when he completely digested this ocean divinity, even without the recovery of ripple power, his healing ability would reach an exaggerated level, and his resistance to abnormal states such as toxins would also be strengthened a lot.
The most important thing is that after cultivating to the master, Ye Ye felt that he had been discovered to the potential of seventy-seven eighty-eight, and after the divinity was integrated into the body, it became deeper again, that is to say, although it did not bring about immediate changes, the upper limit of his body strengthening increased, which made Ye Ye even happier compared to the immediate strengthening itself.
In addition to this, the divinity of the sea also brings another buff.
Opening his eyes, Ye Ye casually stretched out his palm, and the moist air immediately converged into a cloud of white mist on his palm, dancing like a spiritual intelligence, extremely agile.
"It's a pity, this is the only skill I have mastered that is related to the water system, if only it were replaced by the sun divinity."
Ye Ye's tone was full of regret, except for the Cloud Concealment Technique obtained from the Taige World, the bonus of the Ocean Divinity in the Water Attribute Realm was simply a pearl secret investment for him, and most of it was wasted. And Ye Ye's strength, in addition to fighting martial arts, the most important support is the extremely profound Ripple Immortal Dao, as he has improved his ** and vitality to the current level, his cultivation on the Ripple Immortal Dao has also become extremely profound, and he encountered a bottleneck a few years ago, which is also his physical limitation as a human being.
Although it has many functions and is a powerful recovery pillar for Ye Ye, compared to the powerful strength of the violent and destructive power, the weakness of the Ripple Immortal Dao's lack of lethality when dealing with targets other than dark creatures is also undoubtedly revealed, and now it has almost been awkwardly reduced to a special force for wet nurses in battle.
But if you have the divine nature of the sun, then the ripple immortal path derived from the power of the sun will undoubtedly be greatly improved to a whole new level, not only for those dark creatures who are afraid of the sun, but also for those normal creatures who can walk in the sun. As long as he had enough sun divinity, Ye Ye was completely sure that he would increase his ripple power to the level of strength of the perfect creature Kaz, and regain his dazzling brilliance in battle.
Suddenly closing his five fingers, the white mist dissipated instantly, Ye Ye turned his head to look at the sun hanging high in the sky through the window of the boat, and sighed quietly.
Although from the position of the gods, the apex of the water system divine power, Sea Emperor Poseidon, should be above the sun god Apollo, but from a practical point of view, the difficulty of obtaining a few sun divinities is simply not a level compared to the water system divinity that can be obtained by slaughtering a sea monster or a river god at will, with Ye Ye's poor understanding of Greek mythology, he can't think of any other place to obtain the sun divinity except for the famous beautiful man in the sky.
"Take the sun divinity from Apollo? It's really a joke that isn't funny, I'm afraid that people don't have to make a move at all, just a little closer to me is enough to send me back to my hometown, right? ”
Just as Ye Ye was muttering with a wry smile, his face suddenly changed, and the aura on his body disappeared, and at the same time, the system also tightly locked the ocean divinity, preventing it from leaking a trace of breath.
After a long time, sensing that the much larger ocean divinity in the deep sea under the boat was far away, Ye Ye breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but scold: "Damn, even if it's a mythical world, these sea god monsters are too densely multiplied, right?" It's the third time along the way, don't you gods know what family planning is? ”
"We still have to speed up the absorption of this sea divinity, otherwise this kind of frightened life will simply not be able to live."
Ye Ye gritted his teeth fiercely, sat down again, and continued to plunge into the protracted battle to conquer the sea divinity in his body, allowing time to pass slowly.
