Chapter 586: Storm in the Earthsea

I have to say that human beings are powerful in many fields, like this kind of potion formula based on the source civilization, although it can't get a complete evolution, but it is more controllable, avoiding the embarrassment of awakening and not becoming a monster, which is essentially a kind of progress, which makes the potion that can only be used in a very small range and has a very high risk become an out-and-out golden elixir, how many people want it.

In addition, with the improvement and improvement of this technology, various advanced versions have become an emergency backup medicine for leaders, and it is conceivable that once the source is uncontrollable, these leaders who are accustomed to having power to guide Fang Xuan will definitely not mind giving themselves a dose.

Miao Pu had long thought that there would be such a day, and human beings, as the masters of the earth, would themselves be strong and adaptable. Unless it is the kind of source that sweeps the world overnight, and the existing order completely collapses and disintegrates, even if it dies, more than 7o billion human beings will have to die a look, where is it so good to die and extinct?

Moreover, the longer the time drags on, the more likely it is that humanity will survive the crisis of annihilation, or even turn defeat into victory, after all, it is absolutely terrifying to gather the strength of all mankind. Perhaps subconsciously, this is also an important reason why Miao Pu firmly stands on the side of humans, rather than on the side of the awakened.

The Aragami may have the opportunity to become the pioneers of the revolution and be recorded in later history, but the probability of being considered terrorists is definitely higher now, and in the future, which can be roughly predicted.

No matter what their reasons for bitterness and hatred, in Miao Pu's view, their essence is to use guò fierce change, or war and killing, to subvert the existing rule, and use the blood and bones of countless people to pave their way to the pinnacle of power.

Since he has such a cognition, no matter how magnificent the principles he upholds, and how high-sounding the reasons for his exhibition, he will not join it.

It is said that Luo Zhiqing introduced Li Guofang to join the group, instead of finding an expert casually, which naturally has its intentions.

[Wolf Tooth Squad] is definitely the top adventure team in Shanghua in terms of source civilization exploration.

Past facts have proved that any member who follows Miao Pu's actions and survives, as well as the organizations and forces behind them, have reaped rich rewards after taking risks again and again. Therefore, I don't know how many people are staring at the quota of this team, hoping to win one, although this logic is not scientific at all.

Luo Zhiqing also figured out Miao Pu's temperament, and then arranged for Li Guofang to come in, behind this seemingly small incident, there were more than three digits of people with red eyes, and there was a series of fights between factions. There are already people who have put down the position of the [Wolf Tooth Squad], and they will try their best to win it.

However, Miao Pu didn't know this, and his main focus was on doing things. Like now, he is working with Li Guofang on how to improve the sea boat.

said that they were studying together, but in fact, Li Guofang was teaching students.

Luo Zhiqing and her boss are all delicate, they didn't get a guy who only has scruples, this Li Guofang, like many decent experts of the older generation, once involved in the professional field, his temper stinks, and he can't see any small mistakes. And the big sea ship built by Miao Pu patted his head is really full of mistakes and omissions in the eyes of experts.

For example, the internal structure of this ship is not much more complicated than that of a sampan, and there is no anti-sinking partition at all, let alone any watertight hatches.

For another example, the sea ship was built in the name of the Mayflower (which the English Puritans took to North America in 62), because in Miao Pu's memory, this sailing ship is the clearest and most complete. But silk like him, who has been young for half his life, only got a model of the ship in the form of a birthday gift, and he can often see it on the bookshelf on the side of the desk in his room, so he is very impressed.

As you can imagine, this understanding is superficial, and what is even more interesting is that the model is not a scaled-down version of the real scale, after all, such a model is too expensive. The model that Miao Pu obtained is a kind of goods, from the proportion of the hull to the position of the mast, none of them are correct when studied carefully, according to the model of the enlarged sea ship, the structure can be right is really hell.

Therefore, when Li Guofang saw such a big ship that looked okay at first glance, but was actually a pile of garbage, he almost crooked the old man's nose. According to Li Lao's words: "Is this a boat? It is clearly a coffin floating on the sea...... This kind of thing is useless except for sea burial, which is simply useless......"

Fortunately, even if Miao Pu is no longer the original student, he still recognizes Li Lao's attitude very much, in other words, Miao Pu is very fond of this set because of his tutoring, and in his bones he respects those old pedants who have real skills.

It's just that time is precious at the moment, and Miao Pu really can't afford it, but Li Guofang still insists on making major changes to the big ship. He told Miao Pu to either spend time here or more time at sea. And this is already the most optimistic estimate, not optimistic estimate, that is, to be buried in the sea, after all, in this sea, there is no possibility of being rescued at all.

The rest of the Wolf Tooth Squad have not been idle lately, they have carried out a simple exploration of the ocean, and now there are no less than 1o species of marine fish that can pose a threat to them, of which there are three species of whales whose body size is equal to or larger than that of humpback whales, and in terms of their ferocity, they feel that it is definitely appropriate to call them ichthyosaurs. The large, sourced beasts encountered along the way from the frontier camp to the seaside can only be regarded as pediatric compared to them.

The bad news is that these monsters in the sea are predated in groups, so it's not hard to imagine if you fall into the sea......

So it dragged on for another 4 days, and by the time they set sail on October 1o, the forward camp had already followed the route of Miao Pu and their travel, and opened up a road with a low safety factor. The people in the organization are no longer satisfied with just carrying out research in the forests and wilderness of the underground space, and they are some eager to go to the sea at the same time, and these people are the people who are in the forefront of building a cutting-edge research institute by the sea.

Just yesterday, Miao Pu returned to the rear, mainly to replenish energy for the nest and war pets. The special crystals called [Pure Crystal] are too few and cannot store too much energy, which means that Miao Pu has been away from the nest for too long, and he has to bear the risk of the lair decaying and the war pet getting out of control. Therefore, before Miao Pu sailed, he naturally left as much energy as possible to reserve.

This time back to the rear, there is good news and bad news.

The construction of direct tunnels, station fortresses, and forward camps is good news. Upper space has been invaded again, which is bad news.

This time, there were six spatial gates, and the orangutan monster and leopard man who attacked were nearly three times as large as the last time, and there was another kind of plant monster of the same level, this monster itself was much lower than the leopard man, but they had a very representative and meaningful feature, that is, wings and flight.

Although the invasion was ultimately defeated, the defending side also paid a huge price. Almost detonated the huge amount of energy stored in it, the Heart of Thorns, the Tyrant Vine, and the Lair all had damage from different stages, if it weren't for Miao Pu coming back, these losses would not be able to recover in a short period of time, then the next invasion, Miao Pu's side would lose control of the upper area.

Miao Pu didn't know why this upper space was so valued by the enemy. But he at least knew that the enemy's evolution process had taken another step forward. If you are beaten passively like this, it won't take more than 1 month, and the upper space will definitely not be able to keep it. And the upper space is lost, and it is only a matter of time before the lower space is occupied by monsters again, and it won't take long.

With a heavy pressure, Miao Pu stepped on the big boat.

The sea breeze was strong, blowing the sails woven of fine vines, and the big sea ships rode the wind and waves and sailed to the depths of the earth.

The underground space is a typical source world, and its journey is much deeper than the ground. Under such a premise, because the energy is disturbed and the experience is underground, ordinary nautical instruments and the experience of discerning directions are of no meaning here.

Fortunately, Miao Pu has the assistance of the instrumental spirit. One of the most useful functions is the Anchor Coordinate Positioning Method.

This technique is simply understood by setting a point as a coordinate reference, and then comparing itself to the position of the point to determine the direction.

This is a skill that involves spatial knowledge, and only the spatial anchoring coordinates can be able to ignore the distance and the energy of the main material world for a certain extent. Miao Pu himself can't use this technique, he can only use the machine spirit.

The first day of sailing can be called smooth and smooth. For Miao Pu and his entourage, this is extremely rare, and it is precisely because of the actual operation during this period of time that the initial run-in of everyone working together to control the sea ship was completed.

The people who had been tossed around by Li Guofang for a whole day finally figured out the basic shipping work while complaining about their hardships. In reality, it's more about prevention than prevention.

The sea ship is not an ancient sailing ship, the heart of thorns is equivalent to equipping the ship with aI, although it does not have the ability to fully automatic sailing, but it has at least achieved semi-automatic, and the sail can be lifted and locked or something can be done by itself, as long as the order is given to it.

The next day, it wasn't all smooth sailing.

From the early hours of the morning, the weather took a turn for the worse, and the clouds above their heads, like a thick mist, began to change, much like the clouds gathering on the ground, and the waves gradually became larger, and to make matters worse, the storm was just ahead of the course, and they were like rushing headlong into it.

Miao Pu had also taken a boat to sea before, but it was all in the near sea, and he had never experienced the stormy waves in the depths of the ocean. The others are similar, except for Li Guofang, that is, Luo Zhiqing is more qualified in this regard.

But even Li Guofang and Luo Zhiqing have never seen such a violent ocean as the Earthsea Storm Zone.

The heavy rain is pouring, and from a distance, it is no longer raindrops falling, but a waterline connecting the sky and the sea. The dark clouds hung low, as if they were about to border the sea and the earth, and the sea and the sky were completely narrow. And in this gap, the lightning was never interrupted, so much so that as far as the eye could see, the entire space was rendered in a blue-violet color, with only a dazzling light and a slightly dim difference, and there was no long darkness.

In addition to lightning, there are also waterspouts, which are giant tornadoes that really connect the sea and the sky, looking like a giant dragon from a distance, and the body also crosses the arc from time to time, they run wild on the sea like wild horses, and occasionally the two of them suddenly burst out of dazzling brilliance, forming a spectacular thunderstorm, the power of destruction on the surface, even if it is a few nautical miles away, it makes people feel suffocated.

In the furious state of the ocean, the most indispensable thing is the waves, more than ten meters high, you can see them everywhere here, and the situation when the waves fall is no worse than the power of a five- or six-storey building crashing down like a wall. And being sent to the top of the wave by such a wild wave, the next thing to enjoy is to fall under the same level as jumping off a building.

At such times, all people in the sea ship have a sense of insignificance and powerlessness in the face of the vastness of heaven and earth.

This is really the material of Miao Pu's ship is strong enough, and if you change to a ship of this level and that level, it has now been properly torn apart. This is no longer advancing, but should be said to be struggling, in the face of the great power of heaven and earth, manpower seems extremely small.

Of course, it is precisely because of this that the struggle against them has forged the unique bravery and fearlessness of the voyagers.

After more than 4 hours of tossing in the stormy seas, the sea ship finally escaped from the core area of the storm.

By this time, the ship had been damaged in many places, two of the three masts had been broken, and it was still jolting in the waves several meters high.

Happiness is comparative, although now people have vomited all kinds of meat and vegetables, and are still bumpy and abnormal, but everyone has a kind of relaxation for the rest of their lives. The most difficult part was finally over, the wind and waves in front of them were so high and rough that there was no comparison with before, and just six hours ago, they had exclaimed for similar wind and waves.

A sufficiently unforgettable sailing experience made the group have more temperament, that is, the uninhibited and free and easy only those sailors who beg for a living at sea all year round, a kind of bravery and tenacity that is wild in the form of expression.

Miao Pu poured the only remaining half-tube of life energy, and his whole body seemed to be burning, and the pain of being torn made him sweat like rain in an instant, and he snorted, and then wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.

Although it was a refined practice, frequent and large injections, it still caused him some internal injuries, but compared to the most urgent things at the moment, this injury really did not count

The fact that the ship has survived until now is all due to his energy injected from time to time to help it repair. In the world of the source of the waves, even the power of the waves is much more ferocious, and the sea water containing energy is not only more destructive, but also has a corrosive and infiltrating effect.

This kind of corrosion penetration, which is very much like an electric current that makes a metal gain a magnetic force, is described in a special term for the source knowledge, which translates to about energy assimilation.

To put it simply, seawater wants to transform the properties of the sea ship. At the same time as the transformation, the basic structure of the sea ship will also be changed. This is a more complete action than the seawater soaking the planks into rotten slag, and once completed, the ship is like rotten wood that has been swept away by termites, and it only takes a wave to smash it.

Therefore, in addition to the normal fight against wind and waves, large sea ships also have to deal with this corrosion, and in the storm zone, the power of this corrosion is strengthened. Because at this time, the sea water itself has a higher energy state, like that kind of thunderstorm, it is the embodiment of electricity, wind, and water, the three energy attribute madness, if it is sucked in, there is absolutely no other death.

Miao Pu felt that he could break out of such an area before the energy of the life system was exhausted, which was already considered a blessing, how could he dare to stay longer?

So he fought for his wounds, but also to recover some energy, so as to help the heart of thorns quickly repair the ship.

The most important thing to repair is the mast. Fortunately, two broken masts, one of which was not swept into the sea. With the joint efforts of a group of people, it was pulled up by Miao Pu's rattan rope, and then connected to the broken stubble under the infusion of life energy, and quickly repaired.

Then it's time to rehang the sails. Now it is far more cost-effective to save a little bit and repair a broken sail than to re-weave it, both in terms of time and energy consumption.

As a result, at this juncture, the sharp-eyed Li Xuesong shouted a warning: "There are monsters"

Miao Pu looked in the direction of Li Xuesong's finger, and saw a huge figure shuttling through the turbid waves on the sea. The body of this monster is like a sword, the whole is flattened, thick in the middle, and the two sides are thin, and this thin part is like a fish fin and like a ribbon, which fluctuates regularly from front to back, and you can see a clear aqua blue light.

It is with such an organ that the monster can divide the water and waves, and from time to time it can leap into the air, like a light and powerful speedboat.

This monster is at least 3 meters long, and its body width is parallel to the ship because it is far away, so it is not easy to estimate, but it is also six or seven meters, and the head is also large, like a combination of a centipede head and a snake head.

After the monster appeared, it did not pounce on it, but moved forward on its own, as if it was just accidentally going in the same direction as the big ship.

However, Li Guofang reminded Miao Pu that this should be the beginning of the temptation, and next, I am afraid there will be more actions.

is big, fast, and far away, Miao Pu has no way to deal with it, so he can only call everyone and make every effort to repair the big ship.

If the sail is damaged, it should be hastily repaired first, so that it will not be torn by the sea breeze.

Next up is drainage. The cabin is filled with water and makes the hull heavy, and this drainage mainly depends on the heart of thorns, but the premise is to repair the big holes, this work does not necessarily have to be Miao Pu Yu, everyone only needs to take the different specifications of the ↑ leather sticker], against the water pressure of the leakage, the bark sticker on the inner wall of the boat for a while, the heart of thorns will naturally control the wood of the part to complete the adhesion, and then breed fine vines to repair the cracks.

This kind of work can only be completed by the Awakened, or with the assistance of plant monsters, because the strength required is really not something that ordinary people can do, and the strong water pressure alone is enough to ⊥ ordinary people to retreat, not to mention that the ship is not stable.

Not long after the repair of the hull of the ship began, the monster had a new move, and the general direction was still the same as that of the sea ship, but it was already closing the distance between each other.

This kind of approach is relatively careful, every few tens of meters closer, it will pause for a while, and then see that the sea ship does not respond, so it will pull closer again.

By this time, Miao Pu was already convinced that the monster was tempting.
