Mysteries of the Earthsea

"Mr. Charles, what are you doing?" Lily, who was standing on the stove, watched curiously as Charles fiddled with the tin pipe.

"Huh~" The stove was ignited, and the white steam followed the cooling pipe to the other side, turning into water droplets and dripping into the cup.

The stove boils sea water to make fresh water. It is a very simple matter to heat sea water to produce water vapor, and to cool and condense to obtain pure water.

When Lily drank the distilled water, her eyes lit up, "It's delicious, Mr. Charles, you are so amazing, you can actually turn sea water into fresh water."

When Lily looked at Char's heavy face, her ears that had just stood up dropped again, "Mr. Charles, we have water, why are you still upset?"

Charles touched her furry head with his hand. "It's not that simple."

Everyone knows distilled water, not only Charles, but also the humans in the Earth Sea, but there is a reason why everyone does it.

There is a lot of sea water, but it takes a lot of fuel to break it down.

Their purpose is not to have water to drink, but to escape the current predicament. The Narwhal also lacks much fuel.

Changing the fuel to fresh water is just to change the left hand to the right hand. Without fresh water, the crew would die of thirst, but the Narwhal could not move without fuel, and still could not get rid of the plight of thirst.

"How... do you want to... sacrifice..." The voice of the bandage floated from the kitchen door.

The words of the bandage made the atmosphere in the kitchen extremely depressive in an instant. Lily was a little frightened, and her ears trembled slightly.

Charles did not answer, turned around and walked out of the kitchen. The bandage followed silently.

On the empty deck, Charles looked at everything in the dark outside.

The dark surroundings are like a huge pot lid, people can’t breathe,

"Even if fresh water and fuel are interchangeable, we can only last for 16 days at most. If there is no water, we can still last for 3 days. The probability that we can find the island within 19 days is too low..." Charles looked at the darkness. Said the sea self-consciously.

"You... haven't answered... I... question... do you want to sacrifice?"

Charles's face was unwilling, but in this situation, it seemed that there was only one way to do it.

"Can you tell me what the sacrifices do? The sacrifices to the three lives of God Futan, can it send our ship back to Hope Island in an instant?"

"The Mighty...receive the sacrifice...His servant...will guide us the way..."

Charles clasped the edge of the boat tightly with both hands. These are some nonsense. The most important thing is that he never asked, that is, there are only ten people on the boat, who will be the sacrifice.

As if he could sense what Charles was thinking, the bandage said, "I...choose...the target...the chef counts as one...Linda...there is also a sailor, we...can wait for them tonight... When sleeping... do it..."

"No need, I really want to sacrifice everyone to draw lots." Charles frowned, he didn't want to make this decision as a last resort.

The lives and deaths of the crew are on his shoulders, as long as he speaks gently, his crew will be sent to the altar to sacrifice to the evil **** in the water.

Charles opened his mouth and closed it again, and when he was hesitating, there was a low, trembling hum in the distance.

"There is something in front, I'm going to turn the rudder." Charles turned and walked towards the cockpit. In the end, he did not answer the question and answer about the bandage.

The Narwhal changed direction, avoided the position of the thing, and continued to wander aimlessly on the dark sea.

Thick dark circles hung on Charles's face. He has hardly slept in the past few days, and there are still abnormal movements in his head.

He knew whether he agreed with the sacrifice, he had to make a decision.

The crew stood in a row on the deck, watching the bandage chief mate draw a mysterious halo on the ground with his blood

Each of them has a complex emotion on their faces that is indescribable, and without asking, they also know what they are going to do.

Charles's gaze swept across their faces one by one, watching them avoiding his gaze, at this time his lips seemed to be heavy.

"Hmm~" The strange low humming sound came from a distance again.

Charles raised his hand, and the Narwhal tacitly drove to the other side.

Just when Charles was about to spread this cruel message to the crew, he turned his head and looked in the direction of the voice. He suddenly felt that the voice was very familiar.

"Wait, maybe we don't have to sacrifice, we have another choice!" A trace of excitement hung on Charles's face.

The crew returned to their posts one after another, and the propellers pushed the Narwhal towards the sound.

The white mist dissipated, and the round mountain peaks on the water appeared in front of him. Looking at such a huge thing, the crew felt instinctively shuddering.

Lily shrank into Charles' clothes even more shocked. "Mr. Charles, go, let's go, that's a god!!"

"No, that's not a god." Charles answered categorically.

Just after he finished speaking, a jet of water sprayed from the center of the mountain, and it rained for the first time over the Narwhal.

"That is the Levi whale, our hope of survival." Charles found a way to survive. The whale contains a large amount of whale oil in its body that can be used as fuel. Only by leaving it, the fuel problem will be solved.

At this moment, the huge fin hit the water, and the whale's body slowly sank under the water. "Hurry up!! Can't let it go!!!"

"Boom!!" The narwhal's cannon suddenly sounded, and a bright firework exploded on the whale.

The huge whale trembled suddenly, and the sound of the whale became extremely high in an instant. It was irritated by the shelling on itself, swinging its tail, and rushing towards the Narwhal with an overwhelming momentum.

Faced with a giant fish twice the size of the Narwhal, Charles certainly didn't dare to accept ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ He quickly turned the steering wheel to let the ship escape the whale's impact.

Just as the Narwhal was about to escape the collision of the whales, the huge fish tail slammed over and hit the ship with a "boom". The entire ship shook violently, and the crew jumped directly into the air and hit the ship.

With the creaking sound, the Narwhal’s left side was sunken in an instant,

Charles didn't care so much, he clung to the rudder to prevent the ship from overturning.

"Lily, don't stop!! Keep bombarding him!!"

The mice rolling around on the deck quickly rushed towards the deck gun.

Soon as the muzzle turned, the sound of the cannon blasted again, and a continuous burst of shells exploded on the whale in the distance.

It didn't take long for the Levy Whale's body to be pitted by shells, and the blood flow continued.

But even if that was the case, the whale was still able to move. It opened its huge mouth and let out a deafening whale cry, which was full of anger.
