160. There is no wind and no rain

In the curtain of the world, there is no difference between day and night, and there are only clouds when you look up.

Hongdao does not have detailed and accurate timing tools, and the calculation of time depends on personal experience.

Naturally, after a good night's sleep, these sensory times lose their effect.

If Qiao Du wants to say, it is better to calculate the time by the degree of hunger.

Enya and Noah slept for about five hours, and in this environment, it is difficult for people to fall into a deep sleep, and it can only play a small role in relieving fatigue.

Noah was woken up by a deep voice.

He subconsciously got up vigilantly and looked out the window.

In the midst of the rain, there was a huge snapping turtle.

The creature was far away from them, but despite this, the majestic form could be seen with the naked eye.

It really is like a mountain.

The huge turtle shell was jagged rocky and covered with moss, and its angular head had six eyes that opened and closed slightly in the rain.

The snapping turtle has six legs and is staggering, as if to propel itself forward.

But it wasn't slow, and with its massive size, it could easily get past their floatboats.

"It's huge."

Qiao Du was next to the side of the boat and sighed.

"Look, under its body, there is no wind and no rain."

Enya said, pointing to the space beneath the snapping turtle's body.

There are even bird-like creatures whose names they can't name, and they seem to live in their nests on stone pillars growing from under turtle shells, and it is conceivable that such creatures may form an ecosphere and wander alone in this storm.

"There's something there."

Noah also noticed that in the clouds in front of the snapping turtle, there was an unnatural flash of thunder and lightning.

"It's food."

Ah Xin's voice was very soft, but it still reached everyone's ears.

The giant snapping turtle poked its head into the clouds at some slow but sure speed.

In an instant, the frequency of the lightning flickering in the cloud increased rapidly, and finally it turned out to be like day, and the light was dazzling.

Several of them couldn't help but use their hands to block their vision slightly.

When the light dissipated, Enya was surprised to see a long snake-like creature wriggling in the snapping turtle's mouth.

The long snake was translucent, with thunder and storms flowing from it, and the outside was wrapped in muddy rain, and even when it was bitten, the long snake continued to struggle, releasing electric light into the surroundings.

But the snapping turtle completely ignored these thunders, after all, even the wrath of the curtain of the world fell on its body, but it was only an itch.

Three times five divided by two, the long snake was devoured by the snapping turtle, and there was not even the scum left.

"Is this also a dream?"

Enya subconsciously looked at Noah beside her.

The young man shook his head, such a scene, if he stayed in Hongdao, then I am afraid he would not be able to see it in this life.

Although Noah had been scoffing at things like frozen whirling clouds or burning whales when Captain Isaac mentioned them, he actually believed in the existence of those things deep down, otherwise he would not have been able to manifest them in his dreams.

"In the midst of the storm, beyond the storm, there must be more such beings in this world."

Noah said in a deep voice.

"And if we don't go through the storm, then everything is just illusory, only imaginary, and it's time for us to go."

His implication was clear.

Even though it may be just a dream, and you are only a part of it, there is no difference between living and dying without trying to make it through the storm.

Rather than spend his life quietly and peacefully on Rainbow Island, Noah would rather die in the storm.

"If Ah Shan is here, he has to say that a person's character is his destiny."

Qiao Du said in imitation of the voice of the Misty Mountain.

"Ahsan?"

Ah Xin felt that this name was a bit similar to his own name, and frowned slightly.

"It's a very awkward guy, completely different from you."

Qiao Du explained that Wushan's serious character, if he met a casual guy like Ah Xin, he would definitely have to quarrel with Mai Mang.

But think about it.

Ah Xin will be at the end of this mission, and it is estimated that he will not have a chance to see Kiriyama again.

That's fine.

Packing up and counting things, the float boat set off again.

Xin lit the Wind Candle, blocking the storm near the hull and allowing Noah to move forward as fast as he could.

"Those are storm birds, they live in the storm to protect themselves."

Leaving the driving to Ah Xin, Noah looked out of the small window when he was resting, and there was a large group of translucent birds in the wind and rain that were walking side by side with them, if it weren't for the pouring rain falling on the bodies of those birds outlining their figures, I am afraid that it would be difficult to distinguish with the naked eye under normal circumstances.

"Sometimes they eat these birds, they say."

Qiao Du said, holding the clay pot containing the atmospheric spider.

"It's a rare sight."

Noah sighed.

Suddenly, he saw that the originally dense and neat formation of the storm birds suddenly spread out, as if they had been disturbed by something.

“!!!”

Looking back, Noah came to the back of the cabin, and through the small window, he saw a bloody mouth popping out of the rain.

It's the giant worm from before.

"Hurry up!"

Noah shouted, asking Ah Xin to increase the speed of the floatship to the maximum speed while taking over the control himself.

Bang –

Qiao Twilight saw that the worm stuck its head forward and bit down, swallowing half of the storm birds that had no time to escape.

Without giving the float time to breathe, the worm opened its mouth full of tiny teeth again and crashed into the float that had accelerated to the extreme.

Due to the difference in size between the two, even if it was not affected by the storm and the speed was pulled to the fastest, the float still could not fly the worm, and it looked like it was about to be swallowed by the shadows, and there was no place to bury it.

Noah gritted his teeth, he thought about all the countermeasures, and inspiration came to him.

The next moment, the speed of the floatship suddenly slowed down.

No, it wasn't that he slowed down, but he pulled up the bow of the ship and let the floatboat climb upwards, quickly approaching the cloud of thunder and lightning brewing.

The worm's reaction speed was not so fast, and it was delayed for a moment before continuing upward, and the distance between the two was quickly and much closer, and in the blink of an eye, it was to the point that the worm could swallow in one gulp.

At this time, Noah clenched the empty stone in his hand.

The float was now completely upside down, top down, its speed reduced to zero, and it rolled to one side.

The worm, which was half a beat slower, plunged headlong into the thunderstorm clouds that covered the sky, and there was no way to get back for a while.

Noah immediately accelerated, fled downward, and reconfirmed the route.

"Did we get rid of it?"

Enya grabbed the handle in the cabin and asked tremblingly, her voice soft and terrifying.

"Nope."

Before Noah could finish speaking, the huge worm emerged from among the stratus clouds in the sky and opened its mouth from above.

Just as Noah was about to maneuver to avoid the worm's bite, the big bug's movements suddenly froze.

As if grabbed by something above the clouds, it spasmed slightly, twitched, and was violently dragged back between the clouds.

In the continuous lightning, it seemed that a huge claw firmly grasped the worm, tearing it apart, ravaging it.

"What's that?"

Enya already had an answer in her heart.

"If I'm not mistaken, it should be, the Heavenly Veil Behemoth."

Noah wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and replied in a low voice.
