Volume 1 Don't Use the Hidden Dragon Chapter 48 Riding the Wind and Waves
When the white-haired old man appeared in front of him again, Remut felt that nothing good was necessary. The last time he appeared in front of him, he gave him a nautical chart, and as a result, he experienced what it was like to be a slave gladiator. And this time, what kind of "fright" will he bring to himself? Although the Holy Rider spits lotus flowers, Remut no longer believes in this white-haired old man.
Saying that being a slave in Atlas is a fate, there should be a calamity, and if there is no Holy Rider to help him, how can he have another calamity? As for resisting the strange demons and beasts, it has nothing to do with me Remut. So, don't try to use the word "hero" to fool me again.
"Winter is coming, and the Strange Demons and Demonic Beasts have appeared!" said the Saint Rider, "Only when the heroes unite will it be possible for humanity to survive this disaster." ”
"Huh, unite?" Remut said with a wry smile, "It's a joke! Even the ever-neutral city-states of Canghai are locked in endless strife, and you expect everyone to unite against the Strange Beasts?"
"The East China Sea Jiaolong is about to appear!" said the Holy Rider, "Only the descendants of the Protoss who possess the blood of the Ancients can control these Divine Beasts, and you are unfortunate that the blood of the Ancients flows in your body. Therefore, you must take on the mission and responsibility of saving the common people!"
"You cultivators' mouths are deceitful ghosts! The stories and lies you make up are more wonderful than the other! But now, you can deceive everyone, but you can no longer deceive me Remut. ”
"Hahahaha!" the Saint Rider laughed, "I can understand your current mood for what happened to you last time you went to sea. But if you don't have such an encounter, how can you meet your own fate? You take off your clothes and take a good look at your left arm, is there an extra mark of the green dragon halberd after returning from Atlas. ”
Recently, Remut felt that his left arm was strangely itchy, so he scratched it for a while before it got much better. Hearing what the Holy Rider said, he immediately took off his clothes and wanted to see what was going on. He took off his clothes and looked, and sure enough, there was a blood-red green dragon halberd symbol on his left arm.
"This ...... What's going on?" Remut asked, surprised.
The Saint replied, "The Atlas are descendants of the god of the sea, and the trident of the god of the sea can summon sea monsters to fight for them. And the green dragon halberd is also like the trident of the sea god, which can control the dragon. Do you think that your family's Blue Dragon Badge came for nothing?"
"Of course I know how I got my family badge......! Will this sigil appear after I return from Atlas?"
"Chance is chance, and the secret of heaven cannot be revealed!" said the Holy Rider Daoist.
Remut put on his clothes, "I seriously suspect that you are lying to me again!"
"As for whether I deceived you, I won't know when the third dragon goes to sea in early March!"
"The third day of the third month of March?" Remut was all too familiar with this date, for it would be his twenty-fourth birthday. He was surprised, "Jiaolong goes to sea?"
The Holy Theravada said, "The old gods have fallen in the war of the gods, and the demons and monsters have reappeared in the world, and the descendants of the gods will surely shoulder the mission and duty of saving the common people. The old gods are gone, the new gods should be established, and when winter comes, it will be a battle of the gods for all heroes. ”
Remut had no interest in saving the world, and he said, "Now, my main concern is that my family's bazaar cannot be swallowed up by others!"
"Money is something outside the body, how can it be important to save the world?"
"It is said that 'people die for money, birds die for food', saving the world's common people, how can you do it without money?"
"There are times in life when you have to have it, and there are times in life when you don't have to force it. There are some things that you have to learn to let go, and you have to give up to get them!"
"In the bandit crowd holding a bag of gold, you put it down and try it, I promise that you will have nothing to give!"
"The loss of a bazaar is nothing more than the loss of a financial route. The Saint Rider said, "But if you miss the date when Jiaolong will go to sea, you will pass by the opportunity to become the king and hegemon in the future! It is entirely up to you whether you choose to be a merchant who only values money or choose to be a hegemon." But I have to warn you, even if you scatter all your wealth to protect this bazaar, with your current strength, you will not be able to defend it at all!"
Remut also knew that his current strength could not compete with the four major families and Gongboxuan, but he had some concerns, "But if I give up this bazaar, what will those friends who follow me do?"
"It is a great heroic feat to stick a knife in the ribs of a friend!" said the Saint Rider, "and since they are willing to follow you, they will naturally advance and retreat with you." This time I went to sea, and I just needed them. ”
"Alright then, I'll trust you one more time!" Eventually, Remut decided to believe in the Holy Rider one more time, and abandoned the bazaar to go to sea.
"If you want to go to sea, you have to have a good ship. How about you take a look at this one?" said the Holy Rider, pulling out a transparent bottle from his sleeve, which contained a battleship.
"It's ...... Jiaolong!" Remut was surprised, "we all thought it sank in the Devil's Sea, how could it be in a bottle?"
"Your father sailed the Dragon to sea, but encountered the Atlas in the Devil's Sea. They captured the Jiaolong, killed all the people on board, stole the ship's supplies, and finally sealed the Jiaolong in the bottle. ”
"And what about it...... How can it be in your hands!"
"Hmph, do you think the last time you were given a nautical chart to let you go to sea, just to let you experience what it's like to be a slave gladiator?"
Remut was shocked, "What about the white-haired old man I saw in the dungeon...... It's you, too!"
"Hahahaha...... Going to jail for such a thing...... You can't just mention it in front of outsiders! It's embarrassing!"
Remut couldn't help but shudder, "You're terrible!"
The Holy Rider held the bottle containing the Jiaolong and handed it to Remut. After Remut took it, he stared closely at the Jiaolong in the bottle.
The Holy Daoist said, "Now, the Jiaolong is back in the hands of its owner, and the crew is all together! It's time for the Jiaolong to set sail and ride the wind and waves!"
Remut instructed his subordinates to load all the valuable things into the wagon, and prepare to pull them to the eastern harbor to be loaded. Prince Lauren Atlas complained about abruptly abandoning the bazaar and going to sea, but Josie Arnold and her brother Kesso Arnold were supportive of Remut's approach.
Scarface already felt that he belonged to the ocean, and was still depressed about being deceived by crowdfunding to buy a boat, and as soon as he heard that Remut was going to sea, the clouds immediately cleared. The brothers and sisters who participated in the Scarface crowdfunding campaign also expressed their support for Remut. And the old oarsman also said that he had nowhere to go, and going to sea with Remut was his only choice.
After the group arrived at the East Sea Port, they did not see a sailboat with a dragon totem. Scarface asked, "Little Boss, where's your ship?"
"The ship is here!" said Remut, taking the bottle containing the Jiaolong from his chest and revealing it in front of everyone.
"That's it?" Scarface looked confused, "Can you go to sea?"
Remut bit his finger and dripped three drops of blood on the bottle, only to see that the bottle cracked in an instant. Remut struggled to throw the cracked bottle into the sea, and when it hit the surface, the bottle cracked completely, and the sea water poured into it, and it sank.
The Saint Rider muttered an incomprehensible incantation, and the waves began to surge. Under the increasingly impassioned chanting of the Holy Rider Daoist, a large warship with a dragon totem broke through the sea. This incredible scene stunned everyone's eyes.
"This is the real Jiaolong!" Scarface exclaimed, "I've only heard of it in rumors, but I didn't expect to be a crew member of the Jiaolong in my lifetime!"
"I've been a crew member for ten years," the old oarhead also sighed, "I've been a oarhead for another twenty years, and I didn't expect that I would be able to board the Jiaolong and go to sea in my lifetime!"
"Hurry up and get all the supplies on board," Remut shouted to the crew, "we must feel the devil's sea on the night of the second day of March!"
Some of the old crew members were talking, "This...... I'm going to the Devil's Sea!"
"That's the Sea of Damned!"
"Brothers!" Scarface shouted in a loud voice, "Don't be impatient! You can board the Jiaolong and go to sea today, it is estimated that it is a blessing from your ancestors of the eighteenth generation." You should be honored for this, and not cower and be a coward! However, if anyone insists on being a coward, then get out of here, and don't fucking embarrass people on the Jiaolong. ”
Scarface's roar made everyone immediately shut up and honestly went to move supplies. After all the supplies were loaded onto the ship, they set sail on the orders of Remut.
The Jiaolong was a large warship with a length of 18 zhang and a width of 6 zhang, twice as large as an ordinary warship. Ordinary sailing ships sail from the East Sea Harbor to the Devil's Sea for at least seven days, but the Jiaolong arrived in only six days.
As dusk approached, the wind began to pick up on the sea. "Thirty miles further on, and you will enter the Devil's Sea!" said the old oar, pointing to the nautical chart.
The Saint Attendant said, "Spend the night outside tonight, and then enter the Devil's Sea at midnight tomorrow." When the sun rises from the sea tomorrow, it is the time when the dragon goes out to sea. However, everyone has to be prepared to fight, and the Atlas are not good at it. ”
"Stop!" scarface's shouting.
Remut barely slept all night, and after several rounds of the ship, he returned to the captain's cabin. He kept an eye on the timing funnel for fear of missing the hour. Although the Holy Therapist said that he himself was the timer, so that Remut could sleep boldly and boldly, Remut could not sleep at all.
As soon as the time came, he couldn't wait to wake everyone up.
"Get up, the time has come!
The dozens of strong men who were in charge of paddling under the cabin of the ship all exerted their greatest strength, and the Jiaolong quickly moved towards the Devil's Sea. As soon as I entered the Devil's Sea, I felt like the sky had changed. The sky of the Devil's Sea thundered and thundered, and the raging waves rose higher and higher.
When we reached the center of the Devil's Sea, it was as if we had sailed to the end of the world, and the ship seemed to float in the air, with dark clouds, lightning and thunder beneath it, and the sea water churning above everyone's heads.
"That's incredible! What the hell is going on?" Scarface asked.
"This is the singularity of time and space, the end of the world!" replied the Saint Rider, "Actually, our location is in the west of Kyushu. ”
"West, how is this possible! We're heading east!"
"It is true that we are heading east from the East Sea Sea, but after entering the Devil's Sea, it is equivalent to entering the door of reversal, and the direction has been reversed. "If we keep going forward, the sun will rise behind us, if we go back to the Atlas, and if we keep going, we will go to the Atlas, and conversely, if we keep going forward, we will reach the East Seaport." ”
"So......" Remut analyzed, "Atlas has always been in the west of Kyushu, and many of the ships that disappeared in the Devil's Sea are likely to have returned to Atlas because they were in place!"
"That's probably the case!" replied the Saint Rider with some uncertainties.
It didn't take long for the gate of the sea and the sky to reverse again, and the sea was finally normal under the ship, and the sky finally appeared on everyone's heads. But huge waves surged on the sea in front of him, and the giant sea monster had long tentacles and attacked the Jiaolong.
"Jump into the sea!" shouted to Remut, "Fetch the Blue Dragon Halberd!"
"Are you sure it's the location?" asked Remut.
"yes, jump down!"
Remut jumped into the water with a thud, and when he dived to the bottom of the sea, he found that there was a pyramid and many stone buildings on the bottom of the sea. In addition to the pyramids and orderly buildings, the most striking are the two ancient idols. A statue of a god holds a green dragon halberd in his hand, and a dragon at his feet. The other idol was empty in his hands, but with an octopus under his feet.
Remut decisively took the green dragon halberd from the idol, only to hear a roar from behind. When he looked back, the dragon statue coiled on the huge stone pillar had been resurrected. This behemoth may be more than ten zhang long and more than one zhang thick, with only four dragon claws. Remut stood at the top of the pyramid and waved his green dragon halberd, and the dragon swam towards him.
When he drove the dragon out to sea, he encountered the eight-clawed sea monster and was about to drag the dragon ship into the sea. Remut immediately gave a command to the divine beast under his crotch, and this guy quickly rushed towards the octaclawed sea monster and tore and entangled with the eight-clawed sea monster.
After climbing up the rope ladder onto the Jiaolong, Remut saw a familiar warship heading towards the Jiaolong, which was the same ship that had made Remut a slave before.
At this time, Lauren Atlas actually said: "That's Valen Atlas's ship!"
As soon as the two boats approached, men from both sides began to engage in hand-to-hand combat. On the other side, a green dragon and a red octopus stir up the waves in the sea. Valen Atlas boarded the Dragon with a trident, and Remut rushed forward with a dragon halberd to face Valen Atlas, his old enemy who had made him a slave.
