[No pop-up novel website] "Oh God!"
Father Padley Angel screamed and woke up from the nightmare. He subconsciously covered his mouth, hurriedly moved the cable that was pressing on his chest, and gasped for air. It seemed that This thing gave him a nightmare of a ship sinking.
Fortunately, his cry did not cause any panic. The people nearby just looked at him listlessly and lowered their heads again. The difficult journey, the shaking hull, the dirty air, plus the iron chain The ropes tortured almost everyone to the point of exhaustion and confusion.
Padley patted his face vigorously to make his face look rosier.
He put on his reassuring smile again and walked around the residents. It was nothing more than covering the children with clothes, waking up those who had nightmares, etc. But it was these inconspicuous actions that made him Keep residents' emotions within a safe range.
The surging waves shook the hull all the time, making a "wuwu" sound from the gap in the bulkhead. The hull occasionally swayed violently from side to side, and then suddenly stopped - it is said that this It's because the captain is sailing on the top of the waves. This description makes people fascinated... When the huge waves hit, if you don't rush up against it, the long and narrow hull will be broken by the horizontal waves like sugar cane - after it stops , followed by a violent fall.
Everyone still did what they were supposed to do, and no one made a fuss. After a week of sailing, everyone became an expert.
When the sounds outside suddenly become silent, the "tick-tick" sound of leaking water will immediately take over. No matter how well-sealed the ship is, after being ravaged by a storm for a whole week, water will leak everywhere, "Ai The current situation of the "Lona" is pretty good. At this time, everyone will subconsciously hold on to the large cables that run from front to back. Because silence means the arrival of the next huge wave.
"Boom! Boom!" The hatch was hammered twice hard from the outside.
"What's the matter?" Father Padley walked over and asked.
"We need five men to go on deck, five men to go to the bilge, and twelve men to go to the pump." People outside shouted, causing a commotion among the residents. In fact, such a shift happens once every four hours. .The words are the same every time. I talk through the door just to reduce the number of opening and closing the door and keep the cabin dry.
"Group 1 and Group 5", Padley first pointed out the people who rotated sailboat operators and carpenters, and then scanned the crowd.
"Padley...", "Father..." people called him in a low voice. There was a hint of pleading in their voices. Because being trapped in the cabin for a long time will make people more and more depressed and depressed, especially for children. The impact is even greater. Therefore, the dozen or so people who go to pump water every time have become the most popular job. Although they may have to continuously turn the water pump for four hours, being able to go out for some exercise is already a rare and generous treatment. .
The current cabin, whether it is the crowds or the bad smell, is really unbearable - but this is the only dry place on the entire ship...
Father Padley sighed secretly, hardened his heart and pretended not to hear. He clicked on the people who looked to be in the worst condition.
Ten men and twelve women, old men and children, all stripped down to their underwear and stood by the door.
When Padley pulled the bolt open, the door was pushed open from the outside, and about twenty men and women with bare buttocks or just a piece of cloth rushed in with a chill. They quickly got into the crowd. , or just find any clothes, or simply hug the people around them to keep warm. They seemed to have injected a lot of energy into the crowd, and the residents became less lifeless. Everyone hurriedly helped them put on clothes to keep warm.
The twenty or so people on the shift ran out in the cold, wrapped themselves in canvas, and then went to their respective posts. At this time, Father Padley closed the cabin door vigorously and wiped the floor with a big cloth. The sea water came in from above. Those who were taking a deep breath of "fresh air" by the door showed regretful expressions, but they immediately joined in the wiping process.
Moisture is likely to induce infectious diseases, which Lu Yuan had informed them from the beginning.
Infectious diseases are always the most terrifying thing on a ship, bar none.
After the twenty or so naked people returned to their positions, they quickly put on their clothes and talked to the people around them about the situation outside. The people pumping water were saying that the water in the bottom warehouse was only one hand deep, and the four of them I spent at least two hours doing nothing. The boat repairman reported that the danger only occurred once, and now it has been repaired, which is stronger than the pots at home...
Little news spread among the crowd, letting everyone know that everything is getting better.
Only the five men who were removed from the deck, all of whom were sailors, looked exhausted. When they were returned to the cells of family or friends, they just collapsed there. .At this time, there will be a woman's low cry, a man's comfort, and the sound of him changing clothes and eating.
Everyone looked at Father Padley, who had no choice but to move towards those people, when a big wave came in and almost threw him away.
"How's the captain?" he asked, squatting next to a man who looked to be in the best condition. The cabin became quiet, and everyone was looking at him.
The man enjoyed the attention of everyone for a moment, and then said directly, "The captain is still at the wheel."
Father Padley looked around, and sure enough, as if he had heard top-notch good news, the overall mood of the crowd suddenly relaxed.
In fact, I don’t know such a scene within seven days.[,! ] appears how many times!
Even the strongest man would be too tired to say a word after pulling the cable for four hours in a violent storm. But the man who looked neither tall nor strong remained calm despite the wind and rain. It stood for seven days and nights! He has been firmly in control of the wheel and defeated one huge wave after another.
People can still be so optimistic today, not because of the magic lamp that is always on, although the light can indeed dispel panic. It is also not because of Father Padley, although he has been calming the residents' emotions. What really makes everyone full of hope despite their fatigue The reason is precisely because of that man - he is so strong that he hardly looks like a human being!
With Lu Yuan leading them, they are like a group of sheep led by a lion. As long as the lion does not fall, they are confident to overcome any difficulties.
Nowadays, more and more people are willing to call him Captain.
He is like the kind of person who is born to lead everyone.
Lu Yuan stood on the poop, holding the steering wheel.
"Hey!" Bob shouted from the observation deck of the mast. Lu Yuan had no reaction. As soon as he took out his revolver and took aim, Lu Yuan almost subconsciously dodged.
After a long while, Lu Yuan turned around like a damaged robot for a long time, and finally turned to the correct position. He raised his head and said angrily, "Do it..." Lu Yuan turned slightly. With a flick of the wheel, the ship split the huge waves in front of it like a sharp sword, and his words were interrupted by the ensuing surge.
When the waves swept across the deck, he emerged from the waves covered in water and continued, "...what?"
"Hahaha!" Bob watched the huge wave just now, submerging the part under his feet into a vast white mass. Only he was left sitting on the mast. When he saw this scene for the first time, he felt lonely for an instant. He grabbed him violently, making him almost jump off the mast. But now... he could calmly take back the revolver he was holding and just wait.
Seeing Lu Yuan and five other sailors in a state of distress after being beaten by the waves, he laughed unscrupulously.
Lu Yuan shook his head and said no more. He knew that if Bob didn't do these boring things, he would probably not be able to persist. Although his body was a zombie, his mind was still that of a human being, and there was a limit to his endurance.
Lu Yuan was able to persist for seven days, not because he was strong enough, but because seven of every ten seconds were taken over by the deputy brain. The rapid and seamless switching between the two was the reason why he could persist until now.
Lu Yuan jammed the rudder, walked to the edge of the poop, and stared at the rain curtain in concentration.
Five days ago, the wind reached its peak and stopped increasing. Three days ago, the thunder and lightning began to weaken rapidly, and finally became an occasional occurrence. Until now... When he observed the surroundings of the big ship, which was as gloomy as night, he found that The number of tornado pillars raging above has been reduced by half... It seems that the ocean goddess Corybusso has become extremely weak, and her squandering of divine power has finally come to an end.
Lu Yuan secretly thought that maybe the winner would be decided in a day or two.
Unfortunately, even Lu Yuan could not imagine that Corybuso was much weaker than he thought. That crazy woman had squandered too much power in a meaningless manner.
In fact, the rain has always been shrouded within ten nautical miles around the "Elona", and there is another world that is clearly distinguishable ten nautical miles away! Cory Busso launched forced disasters along the way, turning the sea area passed by the "Elona" upside down! Moreover, the goddess of the sea has long since abandoned her land-based divine kingdom "Shipwreck City" and devoted all her divine power to punishing Lu Yuan. The "Shipwreck City" once had violent winds and rains that lasted for thousands of years, and now it has become The sun was shining brightly, and the influence of the sea goddess was gone.
Cory Busso's degree of madness actually far exceeded Lu Yuan's estimation.
Because of his miscalculation, he made another move to further stimulate Cory Busso...
Lu Yuan stood at the stern of the boat and said softly to the vast sky, "Hey! Cory Busso, you look like you are dying. Am I going to win!?"
Although the voice was not loud, he knew that the goddess would definitely hear it and would be so angry that she would go crazy.
However, to his surprise, the divine power that filled the air suddenly dissipated... like flying soap bubbles, disappearing in the blink of an eye. He looked at the sky blankly... She was... closing Hands gave up?! Is there anything wrong? You have been pestering me for half a year, and I thought you had your anus exploded. You killed your pets, destroyed the Kingdom of God, stole treasures, and consumed a lot of divine power. Now you just let me go?
There is no moral integrity!
He didn't believe that Cory Busso would give up at all, but everything around him seemed to be telling him that your guess had become a reality - even though the rain still fell like a waterfall, the tornado still sucked long water columns and wreaked havoc. Still, huge waves of more than ten meters continued to hit him one after another... But he knew that the force, the divine power that drove these factors had retreated.
Then, whether it is heavy rain, strong wind, or thunder and tsunami, these natural phenomena will disappear quickly.
But what is this?
Don't we need a real ending?
Don’t you love…ahem…hate me?
Comrade Lu Yuan is in a mess now.
He walked back to the wheel in a daze, his dull mind now more like a ball of mush, unable to understand anything.
"Bang!" Suddenly a gunshot rang out. Lu Yuan subconsciously ducked, and a lead bullet flew past his head. [,! ] It made my ears feel burning and painful.
"What are you doing?!" Lu Yuan turned pale with fright, and he roared at the mast! He was distracted just now. If he hadn't dodged intuitively, he would have been sent back to the Kingdom of God by this bullet.
"You asked me to shoot, how did I know I could shoot so accurately..." Bob on the mast was also frightened. He just argued with a guilty conscience, then immediately pointed ahead and shouted "Maelstrom!" This is what I want to remind you! It's right ahead! Get out of the way!"
Lu Yuan was startled. He no longer cared about the shooting issue and began to concentrate on driving the ship. The sea was still full of peaks and valleys, almost covering most of the sky. From his position, he could not see the whirlpool in front of him, and Bob is not a professional lookout, so he cannot expect Bob to accurately pronounce a series of terms to help him locate the maelstrom.
"Describe it!"
"Ah...right ahead...it looks like it's several kilometers wide!...diameter...rotating clockwise...it doesn't look too far away from us...Hey! Turn around quickly, you will hit us directly!"
Lu Yuan frowned and listened to the information without saying a word. Some of them were useful and some were useless. Bob was doing his best. Lu Yuan could roughly judge the size of the vortex based on the surrounding water flow - It’s really huge! Cory Busso, you've made another big move! But I like...
But Lu Yuan has no way to turn around now, because the waves are still huge, and each horizontal wave contains hundreds of tons of force. As long as the hull and the horizontal waves form a certain angle, the hull with a high aspect ratio will be broken immediately ! He could only turn the ship sideways as much as possible and rush towards the maelstrom.
Bob on the mast undoubtedly thought of this, and he fell silent.
"John! John!" Lu Yuan called to his first mate, gesturing in the wind and rain, "I need to add twenty sailors! Twenty!"
"Tell the people in the cabin that this should be the final test."
