Chapter 14—The Coming Storm (2)

The turtle shells were scattered irregularly, and the black feathers floated, but it seemed that a gust of wind blew from nowhere, blowing the black feathers into the air, and they couldn't fall for a long time.

Andy was startled and hurriedly looked at the turtle shell.

I saw that a drop of ink seemed to be dripping on the turtle shell, and the ink traveled along the lines, drawing a pattern on the lines of the three turtle shells.

Soon after, the black energy disappeared and the turtle shell returned to its original state.

Andy stood up suddenly, thought for a moment, and sat down with a strange expression.

"No, it's too reckless to go now. ”

As soon as Zach told Andy to watch out for the storm, he went to tell Zach that there was something wrong with it?

Andy thought about it and decided to wait until tomorrow, or until the evening, after all, judging by the appearance of the turtle shell just now, the storm would come in three days.

The dinner was still a carnival, after all, it was one of the few pastimes of the pirates.

After dinner, Andy arrives in front of the captain's room, where he decides to tell Zach the news of the impending storm so that the crew can prepare.

After chatting with the crew these days, Andy has developed a certain idea of storms in the ocean.

When a big storm hits, the best thing to do is to lower the sails and let it drift away in the storm, everyone hides in the cabin, and then ...... Maybe silent prayer is a good option.

Never underestimate nature, the waves of the storm can reach more than ten meters high, and even some small sailing boats with shallow draft may drown people in the deep sea, and the surging waves can easily sweep a sailor on a deck into the depths of the sea.

A sailor who is lucky enough can float up, and if he is lucky enough, he will be carried by the waves to a nearby island and swim to the island by virtue of his water nature, but if there are no islands around, then congratulations, after exhaustion, you will sink into the icy waters and die in the belly of the fish.

I heard that some people have tried to tie themselves to the mast with a cable, but they have fallen into the sea with the mast, and they can't even float up because they are tied.

Of course, in the case of a small storm, the waves are not high, and the experienced captain will order the sails to be hoisted, and the sailors will hold on to the cables and try to get out of the storm as soon as possible.

And Andy's result through divination, if nothing else, is a big storm.

"Captain, I hope it doesn't bother you, but I have something very important to tell you. ”

"Come in. ”

With permission, Andy gently pushed open the wooden door and stepped inside.

The crystal lamps in the room glowed with a dull yellow glow, and Zach sat down at his desk, gently putting the quill down.

"Andy, what did you come to me for? Did you have a premonition?"

"Yes, Captain, it's not good news, but I'm going to tell you. ”

Andy nodded and stepped forward.

"In about two or three days, there will be a big storm, and my premonition is very strong, even the Goddess of Despair will not survive easily. ”

Hearing Andy's serious words, Zach's eyebrows raised, and only the remaining eye showed a fine light.

"Do you have any suggestions? Mr. Andy. ”

Zach looked at Andy quietly and asked softly, as if he wasn't worried.

"I think I need to look at the map and determine where we are, okay?"

"Of course, a very reasonable request. Zach nodded, pointing to the nautical charts on the table, "We're in this position now." ”

This is the map of the sea area of the Storm Sea, and there is another one next to it, which is the chart of the Endless Sea, these two are not maps drawn by the Goddess of Despair through years of sailing, after all, such a map is too precious, recording the secret treasures of the ocean verified by the Goddess of Despair, which were put away by Zack alone.

Andy took a closer look, and he found that the outline shown on the turtle shell was very similar to the outline of an island not far from the place where Zack was pointing, which could be said to be extremely consistent, and he couldn't help but be secretly frightened.

"It seems that the center of the storm should be on the island, so this is the best place to take shelter from the storm. ”

Andy smiled and said to Zack, "Captain, maybe we're going to this island." ”

"Here?"

Zach frowned, there are indigenous tribes on that island, and the pirates are more taboo about these indigenous tribes, although they don't have muskets, but they are agile, especially those tribes who believe in gods or wizards, and they have mysterious powers.

"Is there the only way to go?"

"I think so, I have a strong hunch that this is the best place to escape the storm. Of course, if the captain wants to sail in the storm, there is no problem, and even I am looking forward to it. ”

Andy smiled, he wanted to try what the wrath of the legendary Stormstorm Sea looked like, how could he say that he was a pirate of the Stormstorm Sea without experiencing the baptism of the storm?

However, Zach thought about it and decided to go to the island.

Although he was not afraid of storms, each storm would sweep away their canvas, and sometimes even break the masts, which was too difficult to repair, and the spray from the storm would rush into the cabin, soaking their food and gunpowder, which was a huge loss.

Soaked in gunpowder, you lose your most powerful means of attack when you encounter merchant ships and other pirates!

The main thing is that there are always some blind sailors who think they can withstand the shock and want to fight the ocean.

Zach is not worried about the old crew, but the newcomers are a problem, especially Andy in front of him, looking at his eager appearance, Zach knows that there is really a storm, and Andy must not be able to resist his curiosity to go to the deck to experience.

How could such a treasure let him die in a storm?

Zach even suspected that if he hadn't said that Andy would have been thrown overboard without predicting the storm, he might have concealed the news of the storm!

Indeed, Andy is now praying in his heart that Zach can choose to stay at sea and fight the storm!

Lord Andy's first adventure to fight the storm is about to begin!

Just when Andy was feeling happy, he heard Zach say that he was going to change course and go to the island, and a strong sense of disappointment instantly lingered in his heart.

In fact, if Zach hadn't changed course, the Goddess of Despair would have been on the east side of the island three days later, on the edge of the storm's heaviest storm!

Now that Zach had decided, Andy had no choice but to exit the captain's room and find Roger, the first mate on deck looking at the stars.

"Hey, dear beard, the captain let you go. ”

"Good. ”

Roger didn't talk nonsense, he could probably guess because he had just seen Andy enter the captain's room.

"Well, if you can, I think you can persuade the captain. ”

"What?"

Roger stopped and looked at Andy.

"You say, a real man, you have to dare to face the storm!"
