Because the speed of the Flying Dutchman was much higher than that of an ordinary alchemy merchant ship like the Lady Anna, Ziatu estimated that it would take them a little over three days to reach Farventus.
Although she was a little anxious, she had no choice now. Fortunately, the speed of this ghost ship was quite satisfactory.
In fact, the Flying Dutchman can be even faster. Not only can Ziatu cast [Wind Exorcism] and other spells to boost it, but the ship itself can also sail faster.
But this is the Sea of Storms.
Not only is this sea itself a big trouble, but the sea beasts here are also extremely ferocious, so they often don't dare to run faster, otherwise they will be even more troublesome if they get entangled with these sea beasts.
Like, now.
With a "boom", a huge slimy tentacle covered with suckers suddenly emerged from the sea, and then it did not choose to wrap around, and slammed down on the flying Dutchman.
However, this ghost ship is no ordinary ship.
The sails flickered slightly, and the rudder naturally rotated rapidly, and then the entire hull drew a graceful arc, easily avoiding the sudden attack, and the people on the boat did not even feel too many bumps.
"It's that hateful sea monster again!" Nanava said angrily, because she was almost swept away by the other party this morning.
The grumpy young witch gave the opponent a hard blow at the cost of damaging a magic item.
This sea beast suffered a loss once, so although Nana's attack only caused some minor injuries to it, and it was completely healed in less than half an hour, it still retreated cautiously for such a long time.
Yes, it was the powerful sea beast that was repelled by Ziatu's spell scroll yesterday.
It probably didn't feel that these people were any threat to it, so when it was far away, it came towards the flying Dutchman from the sea in a very flamboyant manner.
The spells thrown by the young witches, including the bombardment of it by more than twenty Death Raider cannons, only aroused its ferocity and made it even more angry.
However, Ziatu was in a particularly bad mood yesterday and wanted to stay away from that damn island.
This sea beast is certainly not weak just from its size, and its aura shows that it is probably the overlord of this sea area.
But women are unreasonable when they are in a bad mood, even witches are no exception.
Therefore, the local witch Ziatu took out a magic prop similar to a trumpet, and then tore open a [Higher Roaring Technique] (orange).
"roll!"
Extraordinary-level spells and bonuses brought by exclusive props, so a terrifying roar suddenly sounded on the stormy sea, and even the sound of the storm that roared all year round on the sea was completely suppressed.
The strong sound wave instantly destroyed more than a dozen tentacles of the giant octopus-like monster, causing it to shrink back in fear.
However, I didn’t expect this thing to hold a grudge. Even Wang Yuanheng and the others didn't pay attention to it, but it actually kept chasing after them.
You must know that every powerful sea beast in this sea has its own territory. It must have fought with many other sea beasts to pursue Wang Yuanheng and the others across such a long distance.
This can be seen from the fact that most of the injuries on its body that were originally healed yesterday have new wounds.
【Sword of Command】!
He ordered the flying Dutchman to increase his speed to the fastest speed, and at the same time, Wang Yuanheng himself also activated the skills from the captain's certificate.
At this time, he couldn't care about other sea beasts. Anyway, with this sea monster here, other sea beasts would have been driven away by it.
The Flying Dutchman flew out like an arrow, and the surrounding storm roared sharply, pushing her even faster.
Even though this big sea monster was extremely fast in the sea, it was hard to catch up with it for a while.
A huge shadow like a mountain emerged from the sea, setting off huge waves. The figure of the black ghost ship appeared in its huge eyes, but more of it was surging anger.
"Ang!" An ancient and majestic roar spread in all directions, but somehow, Wang Yuanheng heard a bit of childishness in it.
The sound is not very loud, but it seems to be ringing in your ears, with shocking power.
Several ships hundreds of miles away heard the roar, and all the sailors on the ship suddenly showed fear and awe, and many even knelt down to pray.
[Wrath of the Sea King]!
The situation suddenly changed within a radius of dozens of miles, and the closer to the sea monster, the more intense the changes became.
The wind is howling, the lightning is thundering!
The most important thing was that huge waves were set off on the sea, and these storms and huge waves began to fight against the storm surrounding the Flying Dutchman.
Suddenly, the speed of the ghost ship dropped greatly.
And there is a hint of human pride in the giant sea monster's eyes.
"It seems that we have officially won the jackpot this time. I seem to have heard of this sea monster." Ziatu said to him with a helpless expression, but his smile was a little bitter.
"This sea monster named Kraken is one of the very famous monsters in the Sea of Storms. It is said that it has a very ancient and powerful bloodline, and it is difficult to rival it in the ocean. Many sailors respectfully call it 'Sea King'."
"Of course, it is said to be quite intelligent. It rarely attacks ships. As long as the ships pay enough 'tribute', it will let the ships pass through its territory. Therefore, in fact, the Lady Anna also has a cabin with Food specially prepared for it.”
"In other words, it was actually just planning to 'collect taxes' from us yesterday?" Wang Yuanheng adjusted his words and asked with a strange expression.
"I think it should be like this." Nanava said weakly.
Because they did not encounter this sea monster when they came, even though Captain Hardt told it, they had long forgotten it after so long. Especially in the tense mood like yesterday, they acted almost instinctively. If it weren't for the fact that this scene was beyond what ordinary sea beasts could do, they wouldn't have even thought about it at this time.
After all, this is not the only sea creature that resembles a giant octopus in the sea.
"However, I think that for us who are 'violent tax evaders', it probably won't have a good chat now." After Wang Yuanheng finished speaking, everyone smiled bitterly.
"It's okay, at least I can be sure that it hasn't entered the legend yet, and we will definitely not die." Ziatu comforted, although in fact she was not sure, because Kraken can be called the "King of the Sea", which is definitely not comparable to ordinary sea beasts. What's more, this is the sea!
In terms of strength alone, there is no one in this stormy sea that is weaker than Kraken, or even stronger than it. However, it is the only one that can be called the King of the Sea.
"Fly!" Wang Yuanheng then thought, this sea monster is so evil, it would be better not to fight it.
So with an order, the huge ghost sail shook violently, the entire ship including the deck made slight changes and adjustments, and the storm that always followed around suddenly became fierce.
The wind and clouds were turbulent, the clouds and water were flying, and the sails were whirring. The black ghost ship slowly broke away from the sea and headed towards the sky.
The Kraken have lived in the Sea of Storms for thousands of years.
However, judging by the age of the sea monster, it is still only a child, although its current size is several times the size of the Flying Dutchman.
Hundreds of years ago, when it first saw a human sailing ship, it was still ignorant. However, out of shock and fear, the sailors on the ship not only threw the food and other supplies on the ship to it, but also knelt on the ship to pray to it.
It thinks that feeling is quite good, especially the human praise Kraken finds it very useful.
Therefore, generally speaking, it does not attack ships very much. Anyway, those small things are not chewy. If you have this time, you might as well get a weak sea beast to eat.
After so many years, except at the beginning, almost no ships dared to attack it. Every time it wakes up from its slumber, it will gain a lot as long as it shows its face.
However, no one had done her this much harm in years!
Yesterday, it just collected its harvest as it did before, and the result
boom!
Looking at the black ship rising slowly and speeding up gradually. Kenlaken swung his tentacles hard, causing a huge splash of dozens of meters.
Want to run? There are no doors!
[Big Whirlpool at the Mouth of the Sea]!
Kenlaken's mountain-like figure began to sink slowly, but this time it was not running away.
No, I just made a strategic retreat yesterday.
…
As the Flying Dutchman gradually took off, the impact of the huge waves on the ghost ship quickly decreased, and because the surrounding cursed storm became stronger, the impact of the storm created by Ken Laken on the ghost ship was completely offset.
When they found that Kraken was slowly sinking, as if it had given up, several people felt relieved.
However, as the captain, Wang Yuanheng soon felt something was wrong, and the Flying Dutchman sent a warning!
The six people soon discovered that this ocean was quickly forming a very large whirlpool, and the center of the whirlpool was Kraken!
As Kraken gradually sinks, the sea surface at the center of the whirlpool also gradually sinks, leaving part of its body partially exposed.
At the same time, the surrounding sea level gradually rose, as if the sea was reaching out to catch this bold black ghost ship.
The water curtain connects the sky and the earth, and it seems as if the sea has opened its huge mouth and is about to swallow up the sky.
Along with this shocking and horrifying scene, the Flying Dutchman felt a huge invisible suction force.
This force tightly wrapped around the ship, trying to pull her into the depths of the whirlpool!
…
