The currents on the forward channel are getting more and more turbulent and rushing, and the way the currents are rushing is no longer like it is on the sea.

Rather, it is like a mountain rapids under a waterfall, and the waves around it are constantly lapping against each other and moving forward rapidly.

On the surface of the sea, the sound of dawn kept sliding left and right, and from time to time it was swept in the air by the waves, and then fell.

Such an exaggerated way of action also made the people on the ship uncomfortable.

This is a test of how strong the ship is.

"We're almost there! Hold on, everyone! Alka said loudly with a cable around her waist.

With such a turbulent current, they have been driving on it for most of the day.

It's been this way since before dawn.

"Why is the current getting more and more urgent?" Jason couldn't help but ask out loud.

"Didn't I just tell you? The sides of the channel became narrower and narrower, and the water had to be squeezed and flapped, so that the current in this place became what it is now. Xia Daiti said loudly beside him.

Then he spoke, continuing: "This also shows that we are getting closer and closer to the gate. ”

"Look ahead! Look ahead! Lucilia was hung in the air with a rope tied to her rope and said loudly.

The crowd turned their heads to look.

I saw an exaggerated view ahead.

They saw it...... The borders of the world.

High in the air at the end of the field of vision, two vertical wall-like slices of space fall down.

They didn't know how to describe the facets, which were unusually colorful, but as if they were transparent and colorless.

It's obviously there, but it doesn't seem to be real, and as the sun shines, it begins to reflect some light, and I don't know how to describe it.

Obviously, it was the first time they had seen such a scene, but it directly appeared in their minds that it was a cut of space.

That's the border of the world.

As they get faster and faster.

The boundaries on both sides of the distance, which were originally far away, became narrower and narrower, and the water below became more rapid, and the surrounding waves kept crashing.

The water rained down and smashed onto the deck.

The so-called raindrops are the size of fists, and some are even as big as heads.

It hit their heads and bodies, and there was a painful touch.

Luckily, the sound of dawn was strong enough, otherwise the waves and the rushing waters would have smashed it.

And this may be the last hurdle for all those who want to go to the infinite sea.

And their attention couldn't help but shift to both sides.

Because the borders of that world were so close to them, they cut the whole sky in half from top to bottom.

They couldn't see what was behind the border, because through the border, they could see that there was still a blue sky behind it, but it changed with the change of color.

It was all like an illusion.

The two sides of the border are sandwiched together, so that the large amount of sea water in the originally wide channel has to be poured into this narrow channel.

With the border on either side of them, they seemed to see the starry sky from it.

This is the visual experience of boundary transformation.

Two starry skies were mixed with the blue sky in between, and a strange sight was imprinted in front of their eyes.

Such a scene may not be forgotten for the rest of their lives, and it will be firmly engraved in their hearts.

"What's there?" Julia's eyes widened suddenly.

The crowd immediately looked around vigilantly, but there was nothing.

Once again, a fierce wind blew.

This time the wind was blowing with a lot of magic mixed in, so thick that they could see it clearly.

These spells give the wind a green-blue hue, giving it the color of the elements.

The wind blew past them, causing tiny wounds on their skin and drops of blood sliding down.

Fortunately, despite the infusion of magic power, the wind blade in this wind is still too small.

Only some of their skin can be cut.

Such an injury is harmless.

"The concentration of magic in these winds is too high." Julia said loudly.

As the wind blew, a huge amount of magic came like a violent wind.

It was a magical wind.

And now it's the magic of the wind.

The concentration of the mana even squeezed the oxygen out of the air, making their breathing quicker.

The runes on the ship automatically lit up due to the huge amount of magic power, as if someone was entering them and activating them.

The same magic power of the wind came and went quickly, and it only took a dozen seconds for it to completely blow over them.

It's just that this simple blow passed over them, and everyone could clearly feel that the spiral in their bodies had slightly increased a trace of magic.

What a terrifying concentration of magic.

"I never imagined that one day I would be blown in the sky like the wind by magic." Arka fell from the sky and stood steadily on the deck.

"Elemental creatures!" Julia said loudly.

She finally knew what the strange creature she had just felt next to her was.

As her words fell, the raindrops falling from the sky turned into water-like elements.

Drawing two streams of whips, they attacked them.

However, before they could make a move, Julia, who was holding the ice crystal blade, unleashed two huge chilling sword qi.

In an instant, several water elementals on the ship were frozen into ice cubes, and then they were broken into pieces by everyone.

"There's a lot of elemental life in the waters around here."

Shadetti pointed to the frost around him.

Everyone looked at it, and saw that the life formed by the condensation of various currents in the sea water was wandering around, and then merged into the sea water and disappeared.

The reason why they were boiling at this time seemed to be because of the wind of magic just now.

Elemental creatures, on the other hand, naturally feed on magic.

It's a feast for them.

Every slap and churn of the sea reveals their shape.

Densely populated everywhere.

And what had just landed on their ship was nothing more than the waves that flew high into the air, just like raindrops.

"The concentration of magic here is too high, resulting in the sea water here being full of magic, and it is naturally very easy to give birth to the life of these elements."

Julia looked at the situation on the surface of the sea and answered for everyone.

Arka looked at the elemental creatures.

He really wanted to get some sleep right now and sink into a dream, to see if there was such a thing as a dream for these elemental creatures.

However, the current situation does not allow him to do so.

Although he can exchange with himself in his dreams, in that case, he can't leave his dreams, bubbles, and naturally can't see the outside situation.

It's a bit of a pity.

As they drove fast, the boundaries on both sides that were originally on the horizon became narrower and narrower.

Until they saw two towering pillars that suddenly appeared in front of them.

These two towering mountain pillars, like giant thorns like spires, are unusually steep.

It's like the frame of a gate.

And for some reason, the surrounding sea water has also stabilized inexplicably, no longer as turbulent as before, but the speed is still unabated.

"So that's the gateway to the outside world?"

Shadetti asked, looking at the doorframe-like peak.

It was clear that the currents were all converging towards the middle of the mountain, forcing the boats to head there.

As the ship really calmed down, the ropes tied to them were untied and flew back.

And the people moved freely on deck.

"There seems to be someone on the mountain?" Jason said, looking at the mountain peak with the binoculars in his hand.

The sudden appearance of the mountain attracted all their attention.

They must have just passed through some kind of hallucinatory barrier to shield the view of this peak, which is why they were so close to this mountain peak when they saw it.

Due to the extremely fast current, it only took a dozen seconds for them to be able to see the existence on the mountain peak.

It was indeed a human-like object moving on it.

Suddenly, the sound of dawn stopped on the surface of the sea like a sudden brake.

The sound of dawn suddenly stopped, and the inertia brought by it caused them to roll violently.

"What's going on, why did the ship stop?"

Shadetti stood up, and walked quickly to the side of the boat to look down.

I saw that the sea below was unusually calm, and the originally fast currents were all calm.

I couldn't help but look back, just behind the sound of dawn, I could see the water flowing non-stop, but when I got here, it was all calm.

It's as if there's something in between.

By the way, even the power of the ship to move fast is eliminated by all means.

There was such a braking-like emergency stop.

The people also came to both sides and saw this situation.

That's when the music started.

Dawn was asking him if he wanted to move forward.

"Don't worry, let's observe the situation first." Arka said cautiously.

At this moment a figure appeared at the bow of the ship, and he was shouting something to Arka in an unknown language.

Looking at the figure Arka frowned, the race of this figure is so familiar, isn't it the same race as the girl who came to the ship to save Bororo before?

"Lucilia, what is he talking about?"

At this time, Lucilia also listened attentively, and then spoke: "He said that his patriarch wants to meet us, so that we can pass through the gate without hurrying. ”

Hearing this, Arka frowned.

"Ask him why."

As Alka spoke, strange language rang out again.

"He said that the person who saved Bororo was the granddaughter of the patriarch, and he wanted to get to know us."

Hearing this, Arka frowned and thought for a last.

"Let's keep up."

As Lucilia communicated, the ship began to move slowly, following the serpent-tailed man at a slow pace.

Slowly approached the steep mountain on the left.

On a platform below the peak, an old man with a trident awaited them.

The old man also had a human body with a snake tail and four arms, and next to him was the girl who had saved Bororo before.

When he saw Arka and them coming, there was some surprise in his eyes, and then he smiled and waved his hand to them, which was counted as a greeting.

She didn't seem to expect that the person who came would be Arka.

Everyone nodded politely.

The old man swam the snake's tail and came to the edge of the platform, looking at the Arka on the deck, speaking in a language he didn't understand.

"He said he thanked us for coming." Lucilia turned her head and replied.

Hearing this, the old man was slightly stunned.

Then he spoke again: "Thank you for coming, and be willing to waste a little time listening to my stranger's request." ”

Hearing the old man speak their language, the crowd turned to look at him.

He seemed to have learned the same just by hearing Lucilia's words.

"Don't be surprised, it's just a little trick."

Arka looked at the old man.

The old man felt like an ordinary person to him, not even a toucher.

But apparently this is not possible.

Since it can't be an ordinary person, but it shows such a trait, it's obviously not an existence that you can afford to provoke.

Looks like I'm going to have to be a little more polite.

Arka nodded politely and said, "It is your granddaughter who should be grateful for saving the crew of my ship." ”

"If there's anything we can do to help, we'll do our best."

Let's start with polite words.

Hearing Arka's words, the old man smiled and nodded.

"I've been waiting for you here for a long time, my name is Maldo Whitescale, and our clan is called the Naga, and we are also the guardian race of this gate."

"The reason why I am waiting for you here is because I have a very important matter and I beg for your help."

Hearing this, Arka couldn't help but frown, although he had expected it.

Calling them over won't be fine.

But the problem is the level of familiarity between the two of them, which can be replaced by strangers.

After thinking about it, Arka said, "If we can help." ”

After all, they do owe a favor.

As long as it's not too much to ask, Arka is willing to return the favor.

Mardo pulled his granddaughter up beside him and said, "This is my granddaughter, Matresa Whitescale, I'm sure you've seen her too." ”

"I beg you to take her, let her join you, and let her get out of here."

What do you mean? Hearing this, Arka's brow furrowed even deeper.

How to entrust his granddaughter to us for no reason, Arka is completely incomprehensible.

After all, it was the first time he had met the old man, and the first time he knew of their existence.

Except for the girl who came on board to treat Bororo before, they never had any intersection.

Mardo, of course, knew how reckless and hasty his request was, explaining: "I know it's a bit hasty, but I have to, we were punished by the god of the sea, exiled here, guarding the gates to the boundless sea. ”

"The god of the sea is merciful, and every hundred years there will be a person in our community who can atone for their sins, and she will go to the infinite sea to wash away the mistakes of our people, and yet we have remained so for thousands of years."

In other words, for thousands of years, every tribesman who went to the boundless sea for forgiveness of sins has failed.

Of course, it is also possible that there was no atonement at all.

"This time the atonement is my granddaughter, and I want to entrust her to a team that can be trusted.

But how can we know who is worthy of trust among the procession that goes out through the gate? ”

"So why did you choose us?" Arka asked strangely beside him.

If you don't know if someone else can be trusted, why do you conclude that they are worth entrusting?

After all, there are not many teams that go through the gate to the Infinite Sea, at least every 10 years, there must be a batch.

And there must have been a team out before them.

It's the team that uses the fish as a ride.

However, Arka has already guessed why, and it may be more or less related to Bororo.

There are so many connections between the two.

For the question of Alka.

Maldo just gestured to one of the people on the boat.

The crowd turned to see that he was referring to Bororo.

"You're the Storm Champion, I saw it a few days ago, I saw the spiraling storm, I know someone is going on a championship trial, I think that person is you."

Poloro nodded, acknowledging very frankly.

"That's right, I'm the Storm Champion of the Sea."

Mardo nodded, looked at Arka and said, "That's why we chose you, although we were exiled here by the sea god, it was also because our ancestors made an irreparable mistake.

We still believe in the god of the sea for generations, and the Storm Champion is the most trustworthy existence, and the Atonement can be regarded as the saint of the sea god. ”

Speaking of this, the lines on the girl beside him appeared, and the lines shone slightly blue.

Looking at the light of this pattern, Bororo stared at her, and the pattern on his body also flashed with blue light.

Although the patterns on the two bodies are not consistent, it can be seen that the styles are similar.

Arka was sure that since the old man knew so much about the Storm Trial, just by looking at the spiral of the storm and the fluctuations of the Trial, he knew that someone had passed.

Then the reason why the girl appeared in front of them so coincidentally before must be because the old man did it on purpose.

He may have thought that it would be impossible for him to pass the trial intact, and he wanted to send his granddaughter to treat Porollo at that time, so as to owe him a favor.

This is very easy to guess, and the old man in front of him must also know that his intentions are too obvious.

He's betting that Arka, or rather Polo, isn't some scumbag.

Of course, it is a fact that this girl saved Bororo, and Arka they do owe this girl a big favor.

The previous brief treatment had already let them know some of the abilities of this girl.

But this girl is the one who is in short supply on board.

And they regretted it when the girl left.

It's all on the lips...... Difficult to make decisions.

Arka turned his head and looked at the crowd.

This is obviously not something he can decide on his own.

Poloro was the first to say: "I agree with her coming up, she saved me, and she is still a believer in the god of the sea." ”

Julia thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.

Everyone also expressed their opinions.

"Anyway, we have believers of the four gods on the ship, so it doesn't hurt to add another one.

Maybe we will see that we are believers in the four gods, and we will be given a little more shelter when we sail on the sea in the future. ”

Jason said suddenly.

Hearing this, everyone turned their eyes to him.

How to say it, the idea is strange.

It's a path they never envisioned.

Come to think of it, it is.

The believers of Our Lady are, born believers in Alka, who have been inspired by Our Lady, and no one will believe that he is not under the gaze of Our Lady.

The former Preparatory Saintess Shadetti, and Jason, who touched a valuable treasure and turned his magic into holy light.

All three of them can be said to be members of the Church of Our Lady, and their connection with the Church of Our Lady can be said to be very close.

The believers in life have Julia, the defender of the order of the sea.

Merfolk are born believers in life and maintain the order of all life in the world.

Alka had always thought that he would be a believer in the sea.

The believers of the wise man are directly Simon, who was given the treasure by God himself.

Well...... I guess I ate the treasure myself.

Anyway, he must have been watched by God.

Needless to say, the believers of the sea god have become the champion of the storm Pololo.

Although they don't know the specific composition of the Poseidon Church, it is clear that the Storm Champion who has passed the trial will not be a small role.

There is nothing wrong with adding a Sea Divine Disciple.

It's better to say that's great.

On the small boat, there are four righteous gods standing behind them.

"Okay, we agreed."
