Yi Lin looked at the "human face" in the hurricane from afar.
Separated by a void.
That voyeuristic gaze was directly in the open, blurred on his face.
In front of that human face, Yi Lin's figure was like an ant falling on a plate, and like the beauty mark on the corner of Ruth's mouth, she looked extremely humble and small.
The face was made entirely of hurricanes, shipwrecks, and seawater. The eyes and mouth were two dark holes. If you didn't rely on your imagination, you might mistake it for a pattern formed by coincidence.
But Yi Lin, who has experienced all this and has some experience in the higher world, understands it very well.
This face cannot be explained by coincidence.
I don’t know how much time passed.
In the eye of the silent wind, there was no sound.
It makes people lose their sense of time.
But Yi Lin had already been counting 48 seconds silently in her heart.
In other words, a full 48 seconds passed before Yi Lin looked at the human face.
finally.
The face and mouth opened, and a strange sound came out.
"Welcome, outsider."
"?"
Outsider?
Yi Lin's heart moved.
It seemed that the existence in front of him was more advanced than he had initially imagined.
"Are you God? Devil? Or...something else?"
"Oh? Interesting outsider."
The sound produced by the "human face" is entirely composed of the sound of wind and waves. It is not like the clear and distinct syllables produced by human beings through their vocal organs. It appears to be somewhat mysterious and empty.
But the strange thing is that Yi Lin is indeed able to understand the language uttered by the "human face" through the changes in the sound of wind and waves.
A few seconds later.
Yi Lin understood.
It should be "official translation".
[Tower] plays an important role in the communication between the two.
So this weird conversation continues.
Face: "You can call me 'calypso'."
Yi Lin: "?"
Soon, the translator arrived.
——[Calypso].
Calypso?
The goddess of the sea in ancient Greek mythology?
Calypso's face was distorted again, showing a "smile" in front of Yi Lin that could only be understood by relying on imagination.
"As you said, I am the god of this sea. I am everywhere and know everything. That compass is a meeting gift for you."
Yilin understood instantly.
No wonder in that kind of hurricane, he changed his posture slightly and quickly approached Xiao Sa. It turned out that Calypso, who was in control of everything, was pushing him.
Yi Lin fell silent.
As a "god", Calypso continued to use that ethereal and incomprehensible tone, as if condescending, looking at Yi Lin with that face, and said slowly: "Warrior of the sea, your experience on the sea,
I see everything you do, and I feel honored for you——"
Calypso hasn't finished speaking yet.
Yi Lin waved his hand and said with a smile: "There is no need for these vain opening remarks. My crew members are still suffering under your butt. Since you have something to do with me, then be more relaxed."
Calypso: "..."
This kid doesn't act according to common sense!
then.
The gods were silent.
Yi Lin squinted her eyes to hide the emotions in her eyes: "The reason why you call me an outsider...that is to say, are there other 'outsiders' in this world?"
Yi Rin tried her best to maintain this strange conversation using a tone that did not violate the "forbidden matters".
"Or is it that there have been 'other outsiders' in history?"
Calypso: "..."
I saw that the faces in the hurricane were motionless.
Yi Lin roughly judged that there was some truth in what he said, so he continued.
"In other words, it's not that I'm seeking your favor now, but that you're asking for your favor. Am I right? God, haha."
The tone paused.
Yi Lin said matter-of-factly: "And I snatched this compass back from the storm with my own hands. What does it have to do with you, Calypso?"
Huhuhu——
In the eye of the wind.
Suddenly there was a gust of wind which was not too terrible.
It made Yi Lin's elegant outfit a little more messy.
For a moment, Yi Lin couldn't tell whether the gusts of wind represented sighs or anger.
"Damn pirates..."
A low sound of wind and waves sounded, almost undetectable.
Yi Lin slowly typed a question mark: "?"
Calypso suddenly shouted: "I mean, he is indeed a brave and clever pirate."
"Outsider, you are right, now, this is a deal."
"..."
After one hour.
The sea area where the Queen died has become peaceful again.
No one knows what happened here besides terrible storms and shipwrecks.
And no one will care.
Because whether it is a navy or a pirate, it is not uncommon for a shipwreck to be turned into a wreck at sea, and it is not worth mentioning.
Ruth hugged a barrel tightly.
This is the same "raft" that the captain not long ago tied together with a dozen empty wooden barrels for safety reasons. The ship does not look like a ship and the barrels do not look like barrels.
The other lifeboats on the Queen were all torn apart in the hurricane and sank to the bottom of the sea.
In the confusion, Ruth hugged the pile of barrels tightly and finally managed to settle down.
The wet sea water made it impossible for Ruth to hide her delicate curves, completely revealing them.
If there were any former crew members of the "Queen" around Ruth who saw this scene, they would probably instantly understand the source of this disaster.
"Oh, bringing a woman on board will bring bad luck."
Ruth smiled helplessly, gave up her struggle, and stayed on the floating barrel, letting the waves wet her and sway back and forth.
She no longer had the strength to think about how to survive.
Ruth knew clearly that the sea near the poles had a harsh environment and bad atmosphere. Many merchant ships would not choose to pass through this sea area, so there were very few ships.
No matter whether it is merchant ships, adventurers, pirates, or navies, they will not choose to pass through this route without a special purpose.
It is undoubtedly wishful thinking to be lucky enough to encounter a passing ship and be rescued by them.
In the vast sea, with no fresh water and food, coupled with the rapid loss of water and the low temperature of the sea surface, Ruth felt that she might not survive tonight.
"Ah, before dying, it would be great if there was a man by my side... A woman can do it too."
Ruth subconsciously licked her dry lips, which had been sucked dry by the sea water, and murmured to herself.
Um?
Ruth seemed to remember some skillful movements and couldn't help but lick it one more time.
The cold sea water covered her body, causing Ruth to shiver.
"It's so cold..."
In the lonely sea, Ruth was like a ghost with an eerie voice.
Although she gave up the struggle.
But he did not give up hope of survival.
There is always hope, but what if it comes true?
So Ruth just complained in a low voice and did not dare to make any noise.
She was afraid of wasting too much energy, so she died on the pile of broken barrels before she was lucky enough to encounter a passing ship.
Rumble, rumble——
"So hungry..."
Rumble, rumble——
Ruth lowered her head and subconsciously picked her ears.
Are you hallucinating?
She instantly realized that there was no sign of thunder in the sky, and then secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Ruth thought that after finally getting down with the barrel, she would be beaten by the sea again in the blink of an eye.
Rumble, rumble, rumble——
ear.
The sound is getting closer.
It's getting more and more ferocious.
Like thunder, and like a terrifying alien beast, roaring on the sea, releasing boundless evil energy into the ocean.
"wrong!"
Not an illusion!
Ruth turned her head in horror and looked in the direction of the thunder.
boom--
A harsh neighing sound completely broke the dead silence on this sea area.
In the direction of the thunder, there was a dazzling light that tore through the night sky, penetrated the ocean, and stung Ruth's eyes.
"So dazzling!"
Ruth subconsciously stretched out her hand to block the beam of light.
She could even feel that the heat from the dazzling light radiated from between her fingers, making Ruth's cold body feel a little warmer.
Snapped.
suddenly.
Ruth felt that the light was not so dazzling again.
Only then did she look more carefully.
I found that there was a small black shadow in that direction, and two beams of light shot out from the black shadow, coming closer and farther away, as if searching for something.
Huh?
Can this beam of light still be closer and further away?
So amazing!
Is it a boat?
No, the light on the ship is not that dazzling.
lighthouse?
Fart! There’s not even an island nearby, so where’s the lighthouse? It can’t be a ghost lighthouse!
I have never heard of any rumors about "ghost lighthouses" in this world.
Just when Mrs. Ruth had many speculations running through her mind and was feeling uneasy, it took a while before she remembered what she should do most at the moment.
So she summoned up all her strength and waved loudly towards the light.
"Help~~~~~"
finally.
The beam of light suddenly approached Ruth.
Only then did Ruth see clearly that the thing that shot out that beam of light was really a terrifying monster. In an instant, Ruth almost forgot to breathe, and all her attention was attracted by the "monster" in front of her.
.
The "monster" was completely black, like a ghost in the night, almost blending into the night.
There were two exaggeratedly round wheels on the front and rear of the "monster". On both sides of the wheel hub, there were densely packed "teeth"-like spurs. The exaggerated and ferocious shape made Ruth feel like she would be swallowed by the "monster" at any time.
illusion.
Sure enough, the monster stopped in front of Ruth.
She could not imagine how this monster could float on the sea on two wheels.
This is completely inconsistent with the principle that the "ship" can float!
At this moment.
A familiar voice sounded above Ruth, above the monster.
"From now on, your life is mine, because you wasted one of my precious 'times'."
Ruth raised her head.
Only then did she notice that a familiar figure was riding on this hideous and terrifying "monster" with its long and charming legs spread out.
Somehow, a strange word suddenly came to Ruth's mind.
——"The Undead Knight".
After standing stunned on the barrel for a few seconds.
Ruth smiled slightly: "Okay."
Ten seconds later.
Ruth's face was full of happiness, and she stayed close behind Yi Lin, clinging to her.
Yi Lin reminded her very silently: "You must never forget that I am a woman."
Ruth was delighted: "Women are wonderful! Women are wonderful!"
Yi Lin: "..."
The mount under the crotch is originally a single mount.
The space on the seat bag is narrow, so no wonder Ruth is so tight.
Yi Lin sighed helplessly.
ready to go.
suddenly.
Crash--
From the water, a paw silently stretched out and pressed it against the edge of the wheel with a snap.
