"According to this, our warship will not be able to move until tomorrow afternoon. If we delay for such a long time, I'm afraid that boy Basaka will have disappeared."
General Schroeder frowned.
Gelmir thought for a moment and turned his eyes to the vast sea outside the port.
"The feather talisman was put on the boat not long ago. This shows that Basaka and the others have not escaped yet, and are probably hiding on a small fishing boat."
"Sir, there are at least a dozen fishing boats on the sea. Only by searching one by one can we know which boat Basaka is hiding on. But our warship can't move. What should we do?"
General Schroeder asked helplessly.
"Hmph! I have my own way!"
Gelmir opened the spell-casting material package, took out a glass prosthetic eye, held it in the palm of his hand, extracted 7 points of magic power, and cast the 3rd-level prophecy magic "Eagle Eye".
"apacenya!"
Gelmir chanted a mantra representing "vision" and created a transparent perspective constructed of a force field over the port where fishing boats gathered.
Gelmir shifted his observation perspective to this high-altitude viewpoint several miles away, overlooking the white sails on the sea, and soon spotted a familiar figure on a fishing boat.
"Basaka Olaf, let's see where you can escape!"
Gelmir switched the observation perspective back to his own body, sneered and extracted 9 points of magic power, cast the 5-level spell "Control the Wind Direction", and set off a terrifying hurricane on the sea near the port!
The hurricane swept the sea water and formed huge waves, which ruthlessly impacted the fishing boats at sea.
The weather changed so fast that fishermen and travelers at sea, including Gao Fei and others, were unprepared and were hit head-on by hurricanes and rough waves.
The storm created by Gelmir swept across the entire sea area. Not only was the fishing boat on which Gao Fei was aboard threatened, but other ships on the nearby sea were also implicated. They were overturned by the hurricane and swallowed by the waves.
The fishermen on the boat fell into the water one after another and struggled to survive. However, faced with this natural disaster created by the Ice Tower Warlock himself, their struggles were destined to be in vain, and they disappeared into the depths of the rough and angry sea in the blink of an eye.
Seeing many fishing boats destroyed by wind and waves, and hundreds of innocent people drowning, Gelmir's face was expressionless, and his gray-blue eyes remained cold.
In the eyes of this powerful ice tower warlock, all living beings are just a group of ants that he can live and kill at his own mercy.
The small fish boat that Gao Fei and his party were traveling in was blown up by the hurricane, sometimes rising to the top of the waves, sometimes falling into the trough, and it was likely to capsize every second.
There is no point in trying to sail the boat in this situation.
Goofy had lowered the sail and tied himself, Laurie, Eve, Munin, Al and Ush to the boat with cables. Each of them was holding an empty barrel in their hands. The next step was just
I can resign myself to fate.
Fortunately, this is just a game, and all disturbances and disasters are scripted in advance, and Basaka Olaf's journey of adventure and revenge is destined not to stop here.
Just when the fishing boat was about to be overturned by the storm, magic power suddenly surged in front of Gelmir, and a ball of red light appeared.
The ice tower warlock frowned slightly, but his main energy was still used to maintain the concentration of "manipulating the direction of the wind". With a little concentration, he raised his hand to hold the light ball and read the "Short Message Technique".
"Lord Gelmir, I have bad news to report to you!"
The sender of the letter is August, the old white dragon who ranks second among the "Big Three" of the "Ice Tower Fortress" and is a general under Gelmir.
"The old woman in the north seems to be planning another conspiracy to incite the Asa barbarians to rebel. She has already received a response from the Wali tribe, and other barbarian tribes are also ready to take action!"
"Lord Gelmir, the situation in Jotunheim is very bad. You'd better come back as soon as possible and take charge of the overall situation in person!"
"Damn it Sonia! And that restless old bear! You just want to cause trouble for me at this time!"
Gelmir cursed irritably in a low voice and turned to look at the sea. The fishing boat Basaka Olaf and others were on had disappeared at the end of the sea level. It was not known whether it was still alive or had been sunk by the storm.
After hesitating for a while, Gelmir finally made his choice.
Rather than chasing down Basaka, it is better to return to the home base and take control. Stabilizing the rear is more important.
Gritting his teeth unwillingly, the ice tower warlock was forced to stop controlling the storm and cast a spell to reply to August, asking him to quickly send his eldest son Backhouse to hunt down Basaka Olaf and his party. If he was found, he would kill him on the spot.
Take back the sacred ax in his hand and hand it to yourself.
Finally, Gelmir specifically emphasized in his letter to Lao Bailong:
"August, tell your hot-tempered son that Basaka Olaf is very powerful and has a holy ax in his hand. He must be more careful and never underestimate his enemy!"
…
The game screen switches again, and the camera returns to the stormy boat.
Just when the fishing boat was about to capsize, the storm at sea suddenly weakened. Although there was no sign of calming down yet, at least it was much gentler than before.
Gao Fei and the others breathed a sigh of relief after the crisis was over.
Laurie, Eve, Al and Ush were all piously thanking Poseidon for his blessing. Only Goofy knew that the weakening of the storm was not Poseidon's protection, but that the game plot had developed to a new stage.
He untied the cables wrapped around his body, climbed up the mast and raised the sail again.
The boat drifted in the wind and rain, gradually moving away from Parthian Island and sailing towards the west where the New World is.
As the night gets darker, the system prompts you to take a long rest.
Gao Fei spent a burst of astrolabe energy and skipped the long rest. The game transitioned to the early morning of the next day, and the storm last night had calmed down.
The halfling Laurie boarded the deck and sighed as he looked at the sea that was dyed red by the morning glow.
"Brother Basaka, traveling with you is really exciting! However, the problem is that it is too exciting, and my fragile heart cannot bear it!"
Gao Fei heard what he meant and asked: "Laurie, are you planning to get off the boat?"
The halfling nodded slightly.
"I have offended Gelmir and I can't survive on Parthian Island. But if you want me to follow you to fight against Gelmir, I really can't muster the courage."
"About 30 nautical miles to the west from here is Amber Island. I plan to disembark there and go to a friend on the island to avoid the limelight."
"Okay, Laurie, I hope we can meet again one day!" Goofy shook the halfling's hand vigorously.
At noon that day, the fishing boat docked at Amber Island. Laurie said goodbye and Gao Fei and his party got off the boat.
Considering that there were frost giants chasing him behind him, Gao Fei did not dare to stay longer at Amber Island. He replenished food and fresh water at the port and set sail.
The sailboat left Amber Island and continued sailing west.
Soon after, Al, who was in charge of the lookout on the mast, blew the horn, indicating that a new crisis was coming!
