Chapter 209: Call the Wind and Call the Rain (Part 2)
The wind got stronger and stronger, and huge waves several feet high were rolled up on the sea surface.
A group of dark clouds drifted from the sky, making everyone feel heavy.
The wind picked up and the sky became dark.
This time, not only did the fleeing gentleman and others show a look of panic, but Merlin and the other players who were hanging at the end also looked a little uneasy.
Merlin was about to take action. The moment he noticed the strange change in the sky, he suddenly ordered the sailors to stop opening the cannon doors. Even if he didn't take action, the players around him began to slow down the ship.
A man's face suddenly appeared in my mind, and it was hard to understand that he could have done all this?
No matter what, let's take a look at the scenery first. Merlin made a decision immediately.
"The wind is thundering and the sky is getting dark. This is a sign of the coming storm!"
A man who was an ocean-going sailor in real life suddenly changed his expression. He knew very well how terrible the storm was, and its power was enough to overturn a 10,000-ton ship in real life. Even if the storm in the game has been weakened, it is still a big threat to the players.
A disaster.
Reason told him that it would be best to leave this storm-swept place as soon as possible, but when he thought of the wealth represented by the ancient sunken ship, he became hesitant.
The only thing that gave him some peace of mind was that the source of the storm seemed to be still some distance away from here. Even if... it would still be too late to run away by then?
"Boom!"
The thunder was rolling, and the lightning that suddenly fell caused the hearts of the players within several miles to tremble.
In the face of the power of heaven and earth, human power seems so insignificant.
His face was slightly wet. The gentleman subconsciously touched it with his hand, and then looked up at the sky in confusion.
I don't know when it started to rain lightly.
"Boss, there is a desperate kid chasing after him alone. Do you want to kill him first?" A white man glanced at the silhouette of the "Piaoxue" and suggested, suppressing his inner uneasiness.
The gentleman felt vaguely uneasy, but he didn't know where the danger came from. A trace of anxiety appeared on his face, "Don't worry about him for now. I always feel that something is wrong. Let the brothers speed up and leave this sea area as soon as possible."
The white man muttered a few words and was about to turn around to pass on the order. The corner of his eye suddenly glanced at the sea surface. The pores on his face suddenly began to shrink. He raised his hand and pointed in a direction with a somewhat loud voice.
He yelled tremblingly and shrilly, "There's... a storm. Everyone, hurry up and hide in the cabin."
A huge tornado more than ten feet high, which seemed to connect the sky and the earth, was heading towards the fleet.
Although the level of this storm is not yet known, judging from its initial power, it is at least above the two poles and is very likely to reach level three.
You know, in another time and space, a storm that destroyed a large-scale fleet that a country had assembled with all the strength of the country was only level five. You can imagine what a level three storm means.
After all, the gentleman was the leader of the crowd. Although his face was pale, he was not completely panicked. He immediately raised his voice and shouted with the greatest strength in his life: "Let down the sail quickly, put down the sail first, otherwise even if you hide in the cabin, you will be in trouble all day long."
The ship will also be capsized and sink to the bottom of the sea."
The higher the player's sailing level, the stronger the ability to withstand wind and waves. In the later stage, when the captain's sailing level reaches a certain level, the sailors will take the initiative to remove the sails and bind some moving objects before the storm comes, even without the player's instructions.
Precautionary measures.
As for now, it all depends on the players' own adaptability.
Just like what the giant man said, it was possible to hide directly in the cabin and escape, but the greater possibility was that the ship would sink into the sea together with the hull, and it was not even clear how he died.
After giving the order, the gentleman felt a little exhausted. He had already done what he could do, and what happened next depended entirely on their luck.
"There must be something wrong with this, there must be something wrong, otherwise it would never be such a coincidence."
He looked miserable and said to himself as if he was neurotic. If his companions around him saw it, they would never believe that the head who usually pays the most attention to appearance would actually look like this.
But what’s the problem?
Could it be said that this storm was caused by man?
This idea was so crazy that it only flickered in the gentleman's mind, and was immediately expelled by him. Believing in this idea made him believe that God would appear more directly.
Hope it's just a coincidence!
He sighed softly and put away his distracting thoughts. After the sailors put away the sails, he glanced at the small boat chasing behind him and walked quickly to the cabin.
At this time, he didn't care much about the threats from behind. Everyone was facing a situation where they couldn't protect themselves, and they still wanted to attack others. That only meant that this guy was a lunatic.
The storm was advancing at an extremely fast speed, and the players hiding in the captain's room turned on their horsepower to the maximum, trying their best to avoid the frontal attack of the storm.
Fortunately, although this tornado storm was coming towards the fleet, it somehow deflected in the middle. Unfortunately, before they could express their joy, they discovered that even if they were just on the edge of the storm, other
The power is still too much for them to bear.
Each sailor who had no time to hide in the cabin was swept up, and along with a large number of wood blocks, stones, and iron tools, they were immediately turned into a rain of blood.
Even if you hide in the cabin, you may not be safe. The gentleman saw with his own eyes that the sails of a ship were half open. Apparently the owner wanted to take off the sails, but when he saw a sudden storm coming, he had to hide in the cabin and take off half of the sails.
Don't care anymore.
As a result, it was blown into the sky by the entire ship, and soon fell down again, hitting another ship, and both of them sank to the bottom of the sea.
But the other players could only watch helplessly, with nothing to do.
The gentleman noticed that the direction of the storm was exactly where the pursuers behind him were, and he suddenly felt a sense of surprise in his heart. If those pursuers encountered this storm, their losses might be much greater than their own.
Will it lose the power to pursue?
From this perspective, the storm was not entirely a bad thing.
"I wonder how the people on the boat behind him are doing?" He suddenly thought of the boat he saw before. He turned around and saw the shadow of the other party. A smile appeared on his face. The other party was obviously
Already buried in the belly of a fish.
This is a very good sign.
Although they were not completely out of danger, the gentleman was already thinking about arrangements for the aftermath of the disaster, and did not notice a faint black spot that appeared directly in front of them.
At this time, the sea area where Merlin was located also heard the sound of cursing. The speed of the storm greatly exceeded their expectations. Even before they could make up their mind whether to take shelter first, the storm suddenly struck.
"Close the gun doors, lower the sails, and throw all the useless things on the deck into the sea. Leave a few people on the deck to watch. Remember to tie yourself up with ropes. Everyone else goes into the cabin."
At the moment when the storm hit, Merlin still looked calm and composed, but the corners of his eyebrows jumped from time to time, showing that his master's heart was by no means as calm as on the surface.
Don't let me know this is man-made, otherwise I...
