147. What happened before coming to Phoenix

Seeing Lin Jue leave here, the whole ward fell into calm, and Orna's ears were only the chirping of birds outside the window, and the sound of the breeze blowing through the leaves and flowers.

This peaceful scene made him feel extremely unreal, after all, the dream just now was too real, as if he had experienced it himself, but Olner knew that the scene just now was just a dream, otherwise he would not be sitting here at all.

After thinking about it for a while, in fact, the dream just now was not completely illusory, at least half of it was indeed what he had actually experienced.

At that time, in the midst of the storm, they did see the epic sea beast Leviathan, but the Leviathan did not open its mouth and swallow the Savior, I don't know if it was because the wind and waves were too strong that it did not see the Savior, or if it was not interested in this lonely boat at all, and just swam away from the sea hundreds of meters away from the Savior.

The Leviathan seemed to be just passing by, and although it posed no threat to the ship, the sailors were still startled by the huge sea monster, and Orna figured out why the Leviathan didn't attack the Salvation, because he was more observant, not to mention his age, he had been at sea all year round, and his eyes were much sharper than some young men.

The reason why the Leviathan suddenly appeared in this area was to hunt merfolk.

Orna could see very clearly, even if the Salvation had escaped a long way from the misty sea, but near the ship, there would still be a few mermaids from time to time, and he estimated that there should be a large number of mermaids in the deeper waters under the huge waves, especially when the Leviathan had just come out of the sea, through the fire light from the magma in his mouth, he could clearly see that there were many mermaids struggling in the boiling water in his mouth.

After all, the Savior at that time was already in tatters, and could only go with the flow, even if the Leviathan turned around and ate them, they had nothing to do, and the Leviathan ignored them, probably the biggest good news they had encountered in the past few days.

......

"Why am I here?"

The calm environment made Orna think about it again.

Because there have been too many things recently, he seems to have been in a coma for a long time, and when he just woke up, his whole head was still groggy, his mind was like a mess, and his memory was messy, if he couldn't still remember his name, he even wondered if he had amnesia.

After a long time, his memory gradually recovered, and he understood the whole story by thinking about what had happened before he came here.

There were so many things that happened that the Salvation lost many crew members, the biggest of which was the one when the ship was hit by a mermaid wave, and before many sailors could get on board, the ship was pushed into a storm, first with a long struggle with the merfolk, and then with a headache.

And this storm was too big, and it lasted for a long time, about noon the next day, the wind and waves on the sea were much lighter, and near dusk, the sea returned to calm, and it was only at this time that everyone began to count the casualties in this storm.

When it first set out from the Brandon Federation, there were 212 people on the Salvation, including the group of magicians, and when they were attacked by mermaids for the first time in the thick fog, there were 169 people, and when the storm passed, there were only 47 people left on the entire ship, most of whom were left on the beach forever, and some of them were swept away by the storm.

At that time, the Salvation was seriously damaged, in order to avoid the storm, and the pursuit of the mermaids, had to cut off all the masts, and also threw away a lot of baggage, at that time in the chaos, no one remembered, what was thrown, only remember that most of the food was thrown away, fortunately, there was still a lot of fresh water left.

The hull of the ship was attacked by mermaids, and I don't know how these mermaids, who are also flesh and blood, bite and scratch, and actually dismantle the entire hull into potholes, revealing many holes, after the storm, the crew inspected the hull, and when the report was in Orna's hands, he couldn't help but marvel, and he didn't know how the ship, with such a degree of damage, survived the storm.

If Gloria knew what had happened to this ship, she would have been amazed at how the damaged ship had drifted to the Eastern Continent.

Casualties and damage aside, one thing that made the survivors very depressed was that the storm had stopped, but the sun was still not visible, and the entire sea was once again covered in an endless fog.

Thankfully, this time the dense fog was much thinner, and the field of vision reached more than 300 meters.

It's not that there is no sunlight at all, it's just that the sunlight is very weak, and under the thick fog, you can barely feel the sunlight, but this sunlight can't bring any light and temperature to people.

On the morning of the fifth day, the Salvation, which had to sail only by oars, finally broke out of the thick fog, and the long-lost sun finally appeared, and the warm light spilled over the entire deck.

It is worth mentioning that with a wide field of view, people actually found an isolated island on the sea, which is not large, only a small peak, a shallow beach, and a sparse jungle.

The good news is that there is fresh water on the island, as well as some wild fruits, which can replenish the much-needed supplies of the scarcity-stricken Salvation, but at the same time, people have also received the bad news that they have found more than twenty magicians on the island, who have sailed with the angel number.

Upon inquiry, it was learned that Hegel, the captain of the Angel Ship, had defected with his sailors.

It turned out that they had not fallen into this strange sea like the other two ships, and when, just as they were approaching the misty sea, the Angel crashed into a cliff and stopped, only to lose contact with the other two ships completely.

They were lucky compared to the other two ships, but they also encountered merfolk and killed quite a few people. Hegel was already worried about this voyage, after all, he knew about it only after Archbishop Wiener.

He thought that the mermaids were so difficult to deal with, not to mention that the archbishop still wanted to trouble the Leviathan, in order to survive, one night, he organized the sailors, and controlled the group of magicians at great speed, as well as the Archbishop of Venat in the captain's room, in order to prevent His Excellency the archbishop from inciting the sailors in the name of doctrine, Hegel directly killed him.

These twenty magicians were thrown by him to fend for themselves on this isolated island passing by, and himself, with his crew and two magic cannons, became pirates.

Orna did not take the more than 20 magicians away, but left more than 20 crew members to hide on this isolated island with them, while he calculated the direction according to the position of the sun, and took the rest of the crew to estimate the direction of the eastern continent.

The reason why these people were left behind was, on the one hand, that the containers on the ship were limited and could not hold much fresh water and supplies, and on the other hand, the current ships were so dilapidated that there was no port or dock nearby, and the hull of the ship was blocked except for some relatively large holes, and on this isolated island, the mast was damaged in other places, but people could not repair it.

In order to ensure that the broken Salvation found the Eastern Continent with maximum efficiency, they approached the east with the minimum amount of supplies and the minimum number of personnel.

However, before it had gone far, the Salvation was pulled by a strong ocean current and headed straight to the northeast.

The currents did not stop, and the Salvation itself was not powered enough, so it had to drift through the empty sea until the fresh water ran out and people were dehydrated and fainted, including Captain Orna.

He didn't know what had happened after he fell unconscious.

It wasn't until today that Orna woke up and found himself lying in a quiet room on the Eastern Continent.
