After the Mo Crow took the lead in approaching the Seagull Channel, several ships that were closer to it also entered the Seagull Channel one after another.
The Seagull Channel is extremely wide and can easily accommodate several ships moving forward side by side. As all these ships entered the Seagull Channel, the Scourge, which followed this fleet, also arrived at the entrance of the Seagull Channel.
"Captain, do we want to continue chasing?" A man with several tentacles on his body said towards the captain's cabin with the door closed.
As soon as the man finished speaking, the tentacles on his back were suddenly cut to the ground by an invisible force. The cut on his back was flat, and for some reason, not a drop of blood flowed from his flat wound.
"I have told you many times, call me first mate! I am the first mate of this ship. Don't call me captain! Don't call me captain!" A deep voice came from the captain's cabin with the door closed. , this voice seemed to carry invisible pressure, and the nearly one hundred crew members standing on the deck were as silent as a chill, not daring to say a word.
"...Never again!" It wasn't until the sound came from the door again that blood flowed out from the wound on the man's back. Granulation sprouted from the flat incision and re-condensed into the prototype of a tentacle.
Even if the twisted limbs derived from alienation are completely cut off, the pollution from the abyss cannot be eliminated.
"Well, Mate Finn, they have arrived at Gull Gap, do we want to continue chasing them?" Another sailor with a monkfish head said to the closed door.
"Have you entered the Seagull Gorge? You still have some courage and haven't been affected by the rumors from the outside world."
"Since they have come here, it proves that the 'Hunting Ceremony' has been completed quite well. There is no need for us to chase them in and kill them. After all, this was the place where the emperor was consecrated, and the remaining power of the emperor is very important to us. The curse of the abyss is too restrained. It is still dangerous to go in hastily. Just stop in front of the entrance of Seagull Gap and wait for the time specified by the festival to pass." First Officer Finn's voice came from the closed door. The voice became much calmer.
"Understood." Many crew members nodded, and then stopped surrounding the captain's cabin and dispersed to do what they were doing.
The captain's room, which had been closed, was filled with repeated sounds.
"I am not Ullr, the God of Winter and the Hunt, I am not Ullr, the God of Winter and the Hunt!"
"I'm Finn, the first mate of the Scourge. I'm Finn, the first mate of the Scourge!"
"My name is Finn Velen! My name is Finn Velen!" Finn's voice was almost a roar. After shouting the same words several times, the voice in the captain's room gradually became deeper. , and finally fell into a long silence.
Perhaps accommodating the incomplete divinity of the Old God five years ago was not a wise choice for First Mate Finn of the Scourge.
........
"The Scourge is no longer pursuing it." Pleasant finally breathed a sigh of relief as he looked at the Scourge stopped at the entrance of Seagull Gap.
Although I don’t know why the Scourge stopped, for Pleasant and his team, this is nothing short of a good thing.
But Pleasant's worries have not subsided. The Scourge is blocked at the entrance to Seagull Gap, and it's probably impossible to go back the way it came. If you go straight, you will inevitably encounter another strong man who stops here.
And that strong man's attitude may not be very friendly. Madman Jolsa wanders in Gull Gap, a legendary pirate of the Western Sea as famous as the tyrant Severus of Turtle Island and the first mate Finn of the Scourge.
It is said that more than ten years ago, a ship from Canglan sailed into the Seagull Channel. Since then, the Seagull Channel has become a restricted area on the Western Sea.
If someone wants to cross the Seagull Gap, he must first consider whether his life is strong or not. The Skyhawk Navy once sent troops to the Seagull Gap to crusade, but even the Skyhawk Admiral, who was as good as a saint, could not do anything to the aliens wandering there after entering the Seagull Gorge. He was even injured by them and returned in anger. .
And that crazy man with disheveled hair and strong aggressiveness became a legend among pirates in the West Sea after he had a brilliant record of repelling the admiral, and was called various evil names by people.
After discovering that the Scourge was parked at the entrance of Seagull Gap, many ships sailing into Seagull Gap all slowed down, because every captain knew that although they escaped the pursuit of the Scourge, they would not survive the There are other dangers lurking in the depths of the strait.
"Everyone, let's stop here." The captain of the Sanzhi sailboat who had talked with Pleasant said to the dozen or so ships crowded together.
"The Scourge stopped at the entrance of Seagull Gap. I'm afraid it has some concerns about this place. If we go deeper, we are very likely to run into the madman wandering here. The danger of that guy is probably not as high as... How different is the Scourge at the back?"
"What should I do if the Scourge has been staying here? The food reserves on the ship are limited after all." A captain who did not belong to Jerend's fleet raised his concerns.
"Don't worry about this. First Mate Finn of the Scourge won't waste so much time on us."
"how do I say this?"
"Every year on the 27th of the Frost Moon, the Scourge will take the initiative to appear around the Black Coral Island. This should be related to the former Pirate King of the West Sea. Now that the 27th of the Frost Moon is less than twenty days away, the Scourge cannot stay outside for long. , everyone just needs to wait a little longer and you can return the same way without taking the risk of going deep into Gull Channel."
"Is that so? It's indeed a good idea, but we don't have much food reserves on the ship. I'm afraid it won't last long."
"This is not a problem. Our fleet has abundant food reserves. If your ship does not have enough food, we can give it to you appropriately. With everyone's support, we will definitely be able to hold on until the Scourge leaves."
"Thank you very much, Mr. Freecross." The captain who raised concerns thanked the man.
"It's okay. They are all ships departing from Albany. This is what we should do." Many captains confirmed their goals and soon began to anchor and stopped in the area just entering Gull Gap.
The Black Crow naturally also stopped. Although Pleasant's strength has been greatly improved now, it is better to forget about him having to touch the Saint.
The one in the core space has plenty of time to rush to the ghost city, so it doesn't matter if he stops here for a while. With the consumption of three people and two ship spirits on the Black Crow, Pleasant feels that he is storing it in the core space. The food reserves can last until the winter months of next year.
"Frikros? It's really him." Namiyi, who had just heard the conversation between the captains of the two ships, looked surprised.
She looked at Captain Flickros on the Sanzhi sailboat, her eyes narrowed slightly, as if she remembered something.
