Chapter 175: Stormy Island
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Many sea beasts roamed the waters.
But few of them were unlucky.
Yesterday, a dozen ma.s.sive sea beasts had been shot to death. But to the 3000 ship crew, they were no more than a meal.
In particular, after the storm subsided and the magic slowly dispersed, ma.s.sive sea beasts did not appear in the shallow waters. They did not allow themselves to be shot easily either.
Last night, the crew had a generous dinner.
The delicacies excited many professionals, for whom it was the first time at sea.
But over the next few days, the ship became silent. Many people drank alcohol and pa.s.sed the time…
After all, it was a short journey.
However, due to the changing weather, William did not use the magical crystals to move the ship. Thus, their traveling speed had become rather slow.
At that moment, someone stood on the deck and yawned. He looked out at the pale blue sea. He felt rather frustrated.
Many people wanted to conquer the sea, but they could not bear the torture of looking at the sea every day.
Some people had even formed a fear of the deep sea…
If they were at sea for a longer time, they might even form psychological disorders such as depression.
There was no doubt.
The conditions that appeared in real life could also appear in this world.
Many people liked the sea as it was fresh. But once this feeling was gone and they were still out at sea, it would greatly frustrate them.
They longed to encounter mysterious islands, treasures. Even fighting some pirates would be better…
They could not stand the dull travels.
William was also very helpless, as this was the reality.
In the vast ocean, if it was not a busy route, the probability of encountering another ship was almost zero.
But on the fourth day after leaving the City of Dawn!
People started shouting in shock on the deck.
Then, there were sounds of cheering.
People ran to the deck and saw the majestic scenery.
It was a storm!
A storm that did not move.
The thunderstorm was like a wall that linked the surface of the sea and the sky.
Lightning flashed and burst forth. It looked very beautiful.
Blue, purple, red…
Lightning flashed and crashed in various colors.
Many people realized that not only did the Dawn Vessel not slow down, but it also did not change direction. Instead, it started preparing to charge towards the storm.
The players could only gulp. All they had were doubts, but they chose not to say anything.
A majority of the NPCs had chosen to go below the deck.
“Move away. Hand over the control of the ship to me!” William pushed Jack away. He glanced at the compa.s.s. After commanding someone to keep the sails, he pushed the compa.s.s into the center of the helm.
Crack.
The compa.s.s was pushed in.
Then.
Unimaginable magic surged forth from 99 magical crystals.
They did not expect this ma.s.sive energy. They felt as if they were on a jet plane. Bubbles formed at the rear of the ship and stretched over several kilometers.
Meanwhile.
Everyone on the warship felt a strong push. All of them were sent rolling back as if they were sitting in a supercar. It was so satisfying, but at the same time, it was also frightening…
Some alcohol barrels, which had not been secured, started to spill everywhere. The spillage on the deck caused the entire warship to smell like alcohol.
“d.a.m.n, what kind of speed is this? Is this really a warship? Isn’t this a rocket?” Someone stretched his hand out of a cannon hole. The intense wind power made him feel as if he was touching an F cup.
Thus, he boorishly touched the air…
But there was a snap.
The player let out a blood-curdling shriek. An electric current ran through his body. Then, he died…
Many people were shocked by this. They quickly drew back their arms.
Chu Liuqiu, in particular, silently covered the mouth of the cannon. He went as far as possible away from the cannons.
But the people below the deck could still see the shocking scene through the gaps.
It was an endless thunderstorm.
The Dawn Vessel was radiant. It braved the waves and the wind, and among the sky of lightning, it was like the only thing moving.
There were very few people standing on the deck. All of them were lightning-type professionals.
William tightly gripped the helm. He welcomed the waves and braved the storm. With a smile, he conquered the sea that would never submit itself.
A full 30 minutes pa.s.sed.
The people below the deck realized that the sound of the waves had subsided.
Many people opened the cannon holes. They realized that the warship had pa.s.sed through the storms. It was as if they had arrived in a new world.Visit web novel. live If You like manga , comics
A group of winged dragons flew across the ocean. Many players gulped. They felt as if they had arrived at Jura.s.sic Park.
And the most important thing, there was a ma.s.sive island in front of them. The vast rainforest shocked them.
It had to be emphasized,
During the era of giant dragons.
Dinosaurs could be found everywhere. But in the world of G.o.ds, they became Dragon Beasts.
Almost all of the creatures on this island were Dragon Beasts. The blood of the giant dragons flowed through their veins!
This was an island secluded from the rest of the world.
This was an island that had been isolated since the era of G.o.ds.
“This is the Stormy Island. This is the place where the Thunder G.o.d amputated his own finger.” William took a deep breath. He took down the compa.s.s, and the ship slowed down.
Meanwhile,
Everyone went on deck. Someone climbed up to the highest point and looked at the island. Constant growls could be heard from the island.
Angry Fatso started a live broadcast. When the island was presented to the audience, the comments finally started to roll in.
“F**k, is that a winged dragon? d.a.m.n! Why can it spit fire?”
“Tsk tsk, I feel a strange sense of deja vu. Doesn’t this island have a nickname? Skeleton Island?”
“Heh heh, a decent man speaks directly. The prince said that it is called Stormy Island.”
“This is a major secondary plot. When will the prince allow us to follow him? It looks fun.”
“Which part of that looks fun… I feel like the 100 people who were chosen will die a very cruel death…”
“Hm? I suddenly feel that you are not wrong.”
The players were not foolish.
Due to their ability to revive, they were used in various ways by the NPCs.
They could imagine what would happen next.
On this island that was full of danger, were players who were only level 30 capable?
They would simply explore and check for danger…
Tsk tsk.
No matter what, they would be sent to their deaths!
But everyone was well aware. If they died, then so be it. If they were sent to their deaths, then so be it. The prince would definitely not hold back on the rewards.
William was experienced. He found a beach where he could stop the warship and issued a command. “100 people are to stay on the ship. The rest, head towards the beach!”
Then, he jumped down. Battle energy protected his body. He stepped on the water and reached the beach in a few seconds.
But the rest could only board small boats and use them to head towards the beach. They also had to carry various resources, equipment, weapons, and so on.
Everyone knew.
This island was definitely very dangerous.
If that were not the case, the Lord would not have made them bring dozens of heavy-duty crossbows…
