Chapter 173: Breaking the Waves

Somewhere in the Berserk Sea.

Xiao Chen stayed in the captain's room of the Houyi, tied the rope around his waist, and fixed himself to a pillar. All around him was a man who was fixed in the cabin. Next to him was Ma Anmin, the captain of the Hou Yi, who was on the pillar next to Xiao Chen, and the other seamen who operated the ship all fixed themselves to the pillars and chairs, because the Hou Yi was undulating with great amplitude.

Looking out of the window of the captain's room, the surrounding was a terrifying-looking stormy sea, the sea was blue and black, the undulating waves exceeded the highest position of the Houyi mast, the sky was gray and black, and the dark clouds almost completely obscured the sky, and it was impossible to tell whether it was day or night. In the surrounding air, there are also lightning and turbulence formed by magical elements, these turbulence has a wild aura, and the power is no less than that of the great magician. However, when they came to the vicinity of the Houyi and the Xingtian on the side, they would be neutralized by the power of the artifact made by He Xiaoxi.

However, the artifact can counteract the turbulence of magical power, but it cannot stop the turbulent waves, and the magic shield can resist the impact of the waves, but it cannot stop the undulation of the hull.

Ever since Xiao Chen and the others entered the Furious Sea, sailing in such huge waves was something that would happen in three days.

At the beginning, everyone was still very unaccustomed to it, and many people were seasick and vomiting every day, but after sailing like this for more than ten days, everyone has adapted a lot, and even in bad weather like today, they are very skilled in fixing themselves in a certain position to avoid collisions.

The ship broke through the crest of a wave and fell to the bottom, and the sea that covered the sky and the sun hit the bow of the ship, but there was a shield that shimmered beyond the Houyi and the Xingtian not far away, and the sea water hit the shield and then dispersed, like a glass splashed with water, making the world around it blurry.

Xiao Chen said: "Fortunately, we have re-strengthened these two ships, otherwise according to the structure of the original Holy Sword, this ship would have fallen apart long ago after tossing and turning in such sea conditions for ten days." ”

Ma Anmin said a little worriedly: "Chairman Xiao, you can't be too optimistic. I've been using the Mage's Eye to observe the condition of the bottom of the ship for the past few days, and the damage to the bottom of the ship is getting worse every day, and our shields can't take care of the position below the ship, although it hasn't hurt the keel yet, but if it goes on like this, one day the ship will not be able to stand it. I really didn't know how many more days I would have to sail in such an environment.

Unfortunately, we can't judge the current position, and we can only determine the approximate course by using the compass. The unpredictable waves here make it almost impossible to judge the distance we have traveled, and it is very likely that we sailed for most of the day and were pushed back half the distance by the waves. ”

"According to the records in the previous documents, the expedition team of the Seven Towers era spent nearly a month crossing the Furious Sea. Our motivation should be stronger than theirs, and now more than ten days have passed, and it may not be far off. Xiao Chen said.

Ma Anmin said: "I don't know how they crossed this sea back then. With so much preparation and so much difficulty, it was unimaginable. ”

"With magic items and the power of the Sage, it should be nothing more than that. Xiao Chen said: "Don't underestimate the mages of the Seven Towers era, think that back then, they had a lot more magical resources than us, and the number of sages was much more, and they were even thinking about how to banish the gods to another dimension." ”

"That's just as well. Ma Anmin nodded, "But I think their actions are always a little bit worse, maybe it's because they aren't really led by the traverser." ”

At this time, Xiao Chen suddenly raised his head, "It seems that the waves are a little smaller, is there any?"

The perception of the people around him was not as keen as his, but after his reminder, he found that the height of the waves was getting lower and lower, and the power of the waves was indeed not as great as it was just now.

The heavy rain slowly turned into a drizzle, the colors in the sky lit up little by little, the sea became calmer, and after about half an hour, they sailed out of the previous sea area, and the environment ahead began to be different from the past ten days.

After another half an hour of sailing, the turbulence of magical power in the sky became less and less, until it disappeared completely.

When the long-lost sunlight pierced the clouds and shone outside, forming a huge spot of light, everyone on both ships boiled.

The Houyi and Xingtian turned off their artifacts and magic shields and headed west.

They didn't have a chart for this half of the world, so the speed of moving forward was not fast, and Xiao Chen arranged for a group of mages to constantly use the magic of the mage's eye to find out the surrounding and underwater conditions.

They walked out of the raging sea in the morning, and in the evening, a mage spotted the seagulls in the sky, and following the direction in which the seagulls were flying, they found an island.

The island is somewhat desolate, with only a few sparse trees, a small hill and a small freshwater lake. But a place on the north side of the island is a nice natural harbor.

So Xiao Chen ordered the fleet to rest here. The damaged parts of the ship need to be reinforced, the failed magic circle needs to be repaired, and the crew members who have not been ashore for a long time also need to go ashore and step on the ground a few times.

In the world of magic, even if there is a lot of space storage equipment, warships like the Houyi and Xingtian need to house a lot of weapons and defense facilities, and the water and food reserves are relatively limited after all. So replenishing fresh water from the shore is also a very important thing.

That night, the crew, who were resting on the island, set up tents and lit bonfires. There was a noisy bonfire.

On the periphery of the bonfire circle, Xiao Chen held a glass of wine and walked towards Luo Ling, who was looking up at the sky.

"What do you think?"

Luo Ling took the wine glass, shook her head and said, "It's nothing important, it's just that I've been thinking about a problem for the past two days." Why has this furious sea been able to remain in such a state for tens of thousands of years, if not more, and what is it that makes it come about, and what sustains its movement?"

Xiao Chen smiled dumbly and said, "I didn't expect you to be paying attention to such a scientific issue now. If I were to say that this is a magical world, there are so many things that we can't understand. ”

"I don't think the power of this furious sea is much worse than the power of the recorded gods of nature, right?"

"It's normal that they are not the creator gods, and their power is not comparable to that of nature. ”

"I'm curious as to why the gods seem to be deliberately avoiding this area. ”

Xiao Chen said, "Didn't He Xiaoxi say that there was nothing on the other side that they could pay attention to?"
