Extraordinary Sailing

From Gabrade, where the Third Fleet is stationed, to Port Newing, where the Royal Naval Academy is located, the total voyage is about twelve days.

Although Phalitis is only a small island country on the west coast of the mainland, this world is really too vast. It's better on the mainland. If you go to the open sea, even with the help of seasonal ocean currents, it's normal to sail for several months at a time.

On the third day of Aiwen's departure, the sky that had been gloomy suddenly began to rain continuously, and the sea breeze gradually became noisy, and soon the flags on the ship were fluttering.

Fortunately, the supply ship that Ivan was on has been sailing offshore, and it is generally stable. The unpredictable sea weather is so normal that even the most experienced navigator cannot accurately predict its changes. On the premise of not affecting the navigation, the supply ship has no plan to stop and evade.

Maybe it's still raining cats and dogs at one moment, and the sky will be clear the next moment?

but.

The situation did not develop as they expected. Halfway through the voyage, the weather changes at sea slowly showed some bad omens.

woo woo woo

Click!

Boom—boom!

There is nothing on the coastline side, but the dark clouds are a little low, and the continuous wind and rain do not mean to stop at all. But in the direction of the outer sea, layers of dark clouds were accompanied by lightning and thunder, and it seemed that the sky and the sea were connected together in the rushing wind and rain.

This extreme astronomical phenomenon obviously indicates that a very high-intensity storm has begun to brew.

Bang——

"Your Excellency, Captain, the situation at sea continues to deteriorate. I think we need to find a safe place to hide." The door of the captain's cabin was pushed open at once, and the dripping navigator wiped his face and said loudly. He asked the captain who was sitting behind the desk for instructions.

When the navigator came in, Ivan was a guest in the captain's room.

The captain of this supply ship, Edlin, has the same military rank as Aiwen, and is also a major, but he is much older than Aiwen, close to forty years old.

The long-term comfortable life on the supply ship made him lose some of the vigor of a soldier, and he looked more like a peaceful uncle next door than a navy. Facing the navigator's rude behavior in front of the guests, he was not angry at all.

"My dear navigator, you have traveled this route hundreds of times, and I trust you as I trust my hands.

go! Prove our expertise to our guests and I'm sure you'll find us the perfect haven. "

He mentioned himself in the conversation between the two, and Aiwen smiled politely at the two who looked over. Although the weather was a bit harsh, he was not nervous. As the captain said, individuals are too small in front of nature at this time, and it is enough to give the experienced sailors enough trust.

"Yes, Your Excellency, Captain." The navigator saluted the two young principals in the captain's room, then turned and left.

Soon, following the orders of the navigator, they were issued one by one.

The supply ship's forward direction was slightly adjusted, and it sailed towards a small island with a good safe haven a few nautical miles away at the fastest speed under the premise of maintaining stability.

Ivan has been on quite a few ships, and he found that each captain and his crew have a unique way of getting along.

For example, under the command of Uncle Geer, every crew member on the "Silver Wing" is like a part of a machine, simple and efficient. But this Major Edlin boldly delegated power, allowing professional talents to give full play to their roles.

Ivan himself has always had a captain's dream. Although he knows that this goal is still far away, it does not prevent him from absorbing the experience of other captains to enrich himself from now on.

"Sail down! Anchor! Everyone except those on duty should go back to the cabin."

The navigator of this supply ship was indeed very reliable, and soon led the ship to the leeward side of the island, anchored and lowered its sails to stop.

Crackling

Hoo hoo -

Just as the supply ship came to a stop, the thick cloud that rushed from the open sea directly pressed down like toppled mountains. The rain suddenly became stronger by several levels, and even gave people the illusion that even the waves were being suppressed by the rain.

However, the abnormal weather obviously cannot be that simple, and there are other weird "things" that are overwhelmed with the cloudy and heavy rain.

"Moo Roar Moo Roar"

It was like a strange roar from some huge sea beast.

"What's that sound?"

After parking the ship, the navigator, who still had duties, could not go to rest like other crew members, so he simply returned to the captain's cabin. The sudden roar sounded, causing the three people in the room to look up at the same time and look out the window.

At this time, the weird roar became louder and louder. After listening carefully, the nautical captain with gray beard and hair looked solemn: "This is not the sound that any sea creature I know can make."

"Could it be a sea monster?!" The three looked at each other and thought of a disturbing answer at the same time.

It's just that as the captain of a supply ship, Major Edlin didn't have the expensive alchemy equipment "Sea Monster Pointer" in his hands, let alone the alchemy bomb that could kill sea monsters.

It can be said that if it really encounters a sea monster, this supply ship has almost no power to resist. Even Captain Edrin, the highest combat power on the ship, is just an ordinary formal knight, and it's hard to say how much combat power is left after being pampered all year round.

Major Edlinn and his nautical master looked a little ugly at this moment. They kept drawing the iron cross with their right hands on their chests, and prayed for the blessing of the goddess in their mouths.

Alvin didn't think it was strange.

The Iron Cross Church is the common belief of the entire Tulip Alliance. It enshrines the "Goddess of Kingship and Navigation", one of the seven righteous gods. The black iron cross with the anchor point at the bottom is His holy emblem.

At least 70% of the people in Phalitis are believers of this goddess, so as long as the word "goddess" is mentioned in public, it refers to the "goddess of kingship and navigation".

Because of the nautical field in his priesthood, he has a particularly great influence among the kingdom's navy, sailors, and fishermen. Facing the harsh sea environment, the smaller one is, the easier it is to entrust the gods.

Aiwen is not an atheist, but his reverence for the great existence does not affect his own actions to find a way out, and he must be prepared for the worst consequences!

There was a slight flash of light in his eyes, and the invisible fluctuations were transmitted instantly. After receiving the instruction, two needle-tailed swifts in the distance flew high into the sky like arrows leaving the string, piercing through the storm and flying towards the direction of the roaring sound.

The place where the weird roar came was farther than Ivan imagined.

At present, the maximum real-time detection radius of the seabird scouts is about ten kilometers. Beyond this range, Aiwen can no longer receive real-time images.

The two needle-tailed petrels that received the order flew to the extreme edge of the detection radius, and finally found the abnormality on the rough sea. Can you imagine how powerful it is to be able to easily spread the roar so far?

When Aiwen really projected his sight onto the sea through the eyes of the pintail petrel, he was also deeply shocked by the huge monster.

"God, what is this?!"

A huge sea monster shaped like a whale, with a bony carapace covering its head and thousands of tentacles on its body, floating in the sea like a small island.

Just by visual inspection, its size is already over 2,000 meters, much larger than the largest giant species among the small, large, and giant species of ordinary sea monsters!

"This can't be a son of the sea god who is comparable to a fourth-level extraordinary human?!" A slight tremor rose from the depths of Aiwen's bone marrow, which was the biological instinct when facing the suppression of life personality.
