Over the Devil's Sea, layers of dark clouds began to pile up in the distant sky.
A freighter with a blue tongue shipping logo suddenly slowed down.
"The danger index in the sea ahead has begun to rise. Judging from the surging clouds and the strength of the sea breeze, there is a certain chance of forming an inverted sea wall." A navigator wearing a blue and yellow uniform stood on the top deck and looked into the distance.
Celestial phenomena, while muttering in a low voice.
"Then do we still want to go through?" the captain asked.
The navigator hesitated for a moment: "If the wind and waves are just rough, there should be no problem for us to go through. But if there really is an inverted sea wall..."
The navigators also began to hesitate. After all, it was the Devil's Sea. Even if their hulls had experienced hundreds of battles, they would still be doomed if they encountered a devastating disaster like an inverted sea wall. However, the inverted sea wall was not that bad.
It is easy to happen, and it is said that there is a certain probability of happening, but this probability is not high, it is estimated to be only about one-thirtieth, so you can actually bet on it.
The navigator told the captain his thoughts.
However, the captain was also a little undecided at this time. After being unable to make a decision for a long time, the captain gritted his teeth and knocked on the door of the guardian's room.
Blue Tongue Shipping, as one of the few shipping companies that can trade back and forth on the Devil's Sea, naturally has extraordinary power behind it. There is also a guardian on this freighter, a male wizard respectfully known as Sea Dragon.
"Lord Hailong..." The captain told the situation cautiously.
Hai Long's face was impatient because his meditation was interrupted. But after all, it was related to the safety of the freighter. He still stood up, opened the balcony door, and looked out.
After just one glance, Hai Long said to the captain: "Go through."
The captain was stunned for a moment: "My lord, have you noticed that there is no sea wall?"
Hai Long glanced at him: "Whether the sea wall has collapsed or not is not important now. Come and see for yourself."
The captain came to the balcony, raised his head and saw dark clouds accumulating not far away, and they were spreading towards their position at an extremely fast speed.
By this time, the captain also understood what Hai Long meant. It didn't matter whether the inverted sea wall appeared or not, because they were already "targeted" by the sea area where the storm was about to blow.
The captain also didn't expect that the outside world would change like this in just a few minutes after he came to Hai Long. Now he had no choice at all, he couldn't escape, he could only fight.
"I understand." The captain signaled the sailors not to stop and cross the sea where the heavy rain was approaching!
A few minutes later, heavy rain came and strong winds rose.
Half an hour later, the heavy rain not only did not weaken, but also became more dense. The storm did not stop at all, and even became more and more wild, comparable to a major hurricane. The freighter kept swaying, even if it was huge, but in this kind of
Under the weather, it is not much different from a small boat that can capsize at any time.
Almost all the personnel were moved inside the hull, but even if they were far away from the outside world, they could still hear the tearing sound of wind. This kind of wind sound made even a man who has lived at sea all year round turn pale.
It's like a deathly apocalyptic wind.
At this time, the captain, the two vice-captains, and the two navigators all gathered in the guardian's room. They looked at the sea in the distance through the glass wall, and their faces were all ashen.
Because the waves on the sea in the distance began to climb, climb, until they reached the sky.
It's like a tall water wall connected to the clouds.
This is the inverted sea wall. It is sucked high into the sky by very special clouds and winds. When it falls, it is so powerful that it can overturn the sea.
"Whatever you are afraid of, whatever comes will come." The navigator muttered helplessly as if in a dream.
"The sea wall is overwhelming. As long as we maneuver it in time, we should be able to push through it," said a vice-captain.
As soon as he finished speaking, more than one side of the inverted sea wall rose from the distance and slapped him in the face.
"Even if there are so many overturned sea walls, as long as we take this route, we can still find a way around them." It was still the deputy captain.
As soon as he finished speaking, an inverted sea wall was raised again more than ten nautical miles directly in front of the freighter, blocking all routes of the freighter.
Vice Captain: "It doesn't matter..."
"Shut up! You are talking. Do you believe I will throw you out?" Hai Long roared.
The vice-captain, who had the attribute of a crow's mouth, silently took a few steps back, trying to hide behind the others. But everyone was speechless towards this man. They just said whatever he said, and they all dodged, for fear of being contaminated by bad luck.
Hai Long snorted coldly and did not deal with him. Instead, he took out something from a hidden cabinet in the room with a stern expression.
It was a transparent glass bottle, and the bottle was not filled with liquid, but a strange white smoke, like miniature clouds.
"You should recognize that this is the floating cloud bottle issued from above."
Everyone nodded. The Floating Cloud Bottle is a treasure at the bottom of the box assigned to all freighters by the shipping company. After use, the freighter can temporarily float to high altitudes to avoid danger.
In the past five years, this freighter has not used the Floating Cloud Bottle, but this time, a large number of inverted sea walls appeared, and there was no way out, so it could only use the Floating Cloud Bottle to try to survive.
Hai Long walked to the window with the Floating Cloud Bottle, looked at the dark clouds high in the sky, and sighed heavily: "Even if there is a Floating Cloud Bottle, it may not be safe."
Because they still don’t know how high the inverted sea wall is, and whether it exceeds the height limit of the Floating Cloud Bottle.
There may also be lightning and thunder in the clouds. Can the freighter pass smoothly?
These are all issues that cannot be considered at the moment and are all unknown dangers. But compared to these unknowns, the current dangers need to be solved more urgently, so the Floating Cloud Bottle still has to be used.
Hai Long did not hesitate and directly removed the stopper, and a large amount of clouds of gas poured out from the bottle. These clouds seemed to have independent consciousness and gathered at the bottom of the freighter.
Like clouds and earth, it lifts the freighter out of the sea and continues to climb high into the sky.
Soon, they entered the clouds. As soon as they arrived, Hai Long sensed the activity of the surrounding electric particles, and electric snakes shuttled through the clouds.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! As long as these electric snakes hit the freighter, all of them will be finished. So, there is no other way but to continue to rise.
They were lucky. They didn't encounter the prying eyes of electric snakes as they ascended. They successfully passed through the first layer of low clouds.
But what they didn't expect was that even after passing through the first layer of low clouds, the inverted sea wall in the distance had not yet seen the end. The inverted sea wall was already connected to a higher place.
In other words, even at this height, they could not avoid the inverted sea wall.
It can only continue to rise.
When we reached the second layer of clouds, everyone held their breath and concentrated, waiting for the moment they passed through the clouds.
The clouds passed through smoothly, but the cloud gas in the floating cloud bottle was also consumed, which meant that the freighter had reached its maximum limit and could no longer continue to rise.
However, even here, they did not see the end of the inverted sea wall.
"It's over, it's completely over this time." Everyone looked at this scene in despair. Some people even knelt on the ground with a look of confusion on their faces.
"This time the inverted sea wall is really going to fall. Even the island whale can be photographed into a pulp." Not to mention their ship, it will definitely be photographed to pieces.
Hai Long's face also turned pale. What he was thinking about now was no longer the safety of the entire ship, but his own safety.
He has a flying vehicle and should be able to fly higher to avoid the inverted sea wall. But as a second-level apprentice, his magic power is not enough to sustain him flying in the Devil's Sea, so he still needs to land. In the past, freighters gave him rest and meditation.
, but if the freighter disappeared, he didn't know if he could leave alive.
"Master Hai Long, what should we do now?" Everyone looked at Hai Long, placing their hope on this only extraordinary person.
Hai Long didn't speak, he came to the side silently and pulled down the magic carpet hanging on the wall.
The magic carpet was his flying vehicle. Others also knew about this, so when they saw Hai Long's actions, they also understood the seriousness of the matter.
Even the defenders can't solve it, they may really be doomed.
"I can carry up to four people on the magic carpet. I can carry you away." Hai Long looked at everyone: "There are five of you now, which means that one person still has to stay on the ship."
"You choose, or I choose."
"Even if you are selected, don't think it will be easy. Because even if you leave now, there is no guarantee that you will survive in the future."
Hai Long threw this fatal multiple-choice question over.
Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, and they were all silent. They were all comrades in arms on weekdays, but when it came to a matter of life and death, they were completely confused.
"I don't have time to waste for you. If you don't get the result in half a minute, I will choose." Hai Long looked at the increasingly turbulent inverted sea wall in the distance and scolded.
At this time, the captain came out: "I have worked on this freighter for twenty years, and I have regarded it as my home. Since my home is destroyed, what am I still doing? I, let me stay.
.”
Others remained silent.
Hai Long took a deep look at the captain: "Okay, you stay, others are ready and leave with me."
Hai Long waved lightly, and the magic carpet was spread on the ground, beckoning everyone to come up.
Just when the magic carpet was full and Hai Long was about to take the others out of the freighter, a light suddenly flashed in the sky.
Everyone looked up and saw a dazzling dreamy airship appearing in the sky. This airship, with the starry sky as its veil, came from a distance and slowly docked directly above them.
Others could not see clearly what was going on inside the flying boat, but Hai Long, as a wizard apprentice, could clearly feel that there was a terrifyingly powerful man on the flying boat, and his eyes swept over them.
The other party even locked their sights on Hai Long.
This kind of gaze that can make your skin tremble definitely comes from an official wizard!
Hai Long knew very well how terrifying formal wizards were. Moreover, most formal wizards had bad tempers, and the probability of being targeted by a formal wizard was extremely high.
Does this mean... that the house leaked and there was a heavy rain? Just escaped one disaster, are you going to enter the second disaster immediately?
Hai Long felt a little desperate.
"It's coming down, it's coming down...the flying boat is coming down!" The two navigators next to them exclaimed in surprise.
Hai Long also raised his head tremblingly, and sure enough he saw the dreamlike flying boat slowly descending from a high altitude.
One hundred meters, fifty meters, thirty meters...it wasn't until it was about ten meters away from them that the flying boat stopped.
Hai Long secretly glanced at the people on the flying boat.
It was a young man wearing loose robes, leaning lazily on the seat, with some scattered red hair casually placed on his forehead. Combined with his wilting golden eyes, it gave people a sense of world-weary laziness.
.
Hai Long didn't dare to look at the other person, he just looked at him respectfully and then lowered his head.
Searching the database in his mind, he determined that he had never seen the other party.
But it's also possible that the other party is pretending.
"These humans can actually fly while sitting on a blanket?"
A clear and childish voice came from the flying boat. Hai Long glanced secretly and found that the speaker was a... hand hanging on the young man's back.
Hands can actually talk? When Hai Long was surprised, the other party spoke again.
"Oh my god, am I reading that right? The ship over there is so big. A ship this big can fly into the sky, it's scary!"
"Damn it, compare it to the gondola, we lost."
Hai Long: ...Is this a mockery or a sincere statement? You can tell who loses just by looking at the appearance.
Everyone lowered their heads and did not dare to speak. The only person who spoke loudly was the chattering hand.
"Okay, if you talk more, I will continue to lock you up." The young man said.
"There's no fireplace here..."
"I can confine you without a fireplace. Do you want to try it?"
"Okay." Hand murmured in a low voice, feeling aggrieved, "I just told the truth. We lost in the first place."
"Shut up." The young man said angrily.
The hand stopped talking, and Hai Long on the magic carpet breathed a sigh of relief, because although what this hand said was very ignorant, from a certain point of view, it was also putting them on the fire.
However, although the hand was quiet, it was not completely stable. Because it jumped directly onto the magic carpet, like a patrolling general, it circled around the magic carpet and looked up and down at the people on the magic carpet.
Facing this strange hand, no one dared to move or say a word.
"This blanket is quite comfortable, soft and warm, much better than a gondola!"
Hai Long:...Please stop talking.
"Dangros, contain your fire!"
The young man on the flying boat scolded, and the others looked at the hand one after another, only to see that the hand rolling on the magic carpet was surrounded by flames at some point. The blanket under it had already been burnt to a crisp.
hole.
After being yelled at, Dangros came to his senses in a daze, but at this time, the hole in the magic carpet had begun to expand.
Before Dangros could react, he fell from the charred hole.
He fell straight onto the balcony on the top floor of the freighter.
The flight control magic carpet also lost a certain degree of flight function because of the holes burned out. With a burst of exclamation, everyone fell down one after another.
"Idiot, I'll put you in solitary confinement immediately when you get back." The young man cursed and jumped off the flying boat.
At this time, everyone else was confused, only Hailong was shivering.
Hai Long has already guessed that this hand is probably a fire elemental creature. The fire released unconsciously can burn through the magic carpet, which shows that it is extremely powerful. It is estimated that ten of him are not enough to burn the opponent.
He was powerless against this hand, let alone a more powerful official wizard.
There is an inverted sea wall in front, fire elemental creatures and official wizards behind, and the only escape magic carpet is also useless. Are they really going to fall here this time?
