Chapter 223 Crisis at Sea

The next morning, the originally calm sea surface suddenly became extremely surging, and a violent sea storm was about to come.

The crew members, including Corleon, all took action and lowered the Zhongsail together.

And fix all the supplies to prevent them from being thrown everywhere or hurting their own people.

Because the Carrick sailing ship has a towering boat building and a huge body, it is easy to have a center of gravity tilt when encountering this strong windy weather. If it is not operated properly, the ship may capsize.

At that moment, the bow of the ship was tilting forward, and he was so scared that he screamed with a broken sound.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

"Gaga! A little trash without courage!" Badrial stood proudly on the captain's shoulder, mocking his beeping performance.

One thing that's interesting about this parrot is that no matter how strong the wind is, it can't blow off the mini captain's hat on its head.

The barbarians and other subordinates who went to sea for the first time also performed very badly. Many people vomited all over the floor, and the cabin was filled with the smell of vomiting, not to mention that they even drank wine yesterday.

However, the worst thing was the construction knight. Because the bow of the boat leaned forward, countless waves kept rushing towards him, almost immersing his entire body into the sea.

Because he didn't want to damage the chip, the guy started begging Corleone for mercy.

"Dear Your Excellency! I have realized my mistakes, please put me down!" At this time, the Constructed Knight did not call Corleon an organic.

But now is not the time to do these trivial things. If the captain and sailors are not good at their skills, the whole ship will be ruined.

Naturally, Corleon was not in the mood to listen to him, but chose to help all kinds of things on the deck.

Faced with such a terrifying weather, humans appear extremely small in front of nature.

The huge waves on the sea were surging, and there was no sign of stopping. Every few minutes, the waves would pounce on them.

The worst thing is that as the storm became stronger and stronger, many old sailors showed a look of fear on their faces. They had never seen a storm of this size, just as if the sea god was angry.

Corleon had just tied up a few cables when a sailor suddenly rushed over and shouted to the captain:

"The water has come into the bottom of the boat!"

Many people hurriedly ran under the cabin, and even Corleon followed.

When they got down, they realized that the situation was quite bad. The bottom cabin was more than half a meter high in water.

Fortunately, there is also the old fish head Slada. Unexpectedly, this Shahua fish man is proficient in ship repairs and quickly helped other sailors solve several loopholes at the bottom.

Then, everyone worked very hard to pack the water in buckets, then passed it to the people above, and finally poured it outside the sailboat.

The captain Martin was nervous and covered in sweat and sea water. As an old captain who had sailed for decades, such weather was not common, and he had only encountered it 2 or 3 times.

Every time you experience such a storm, the sailboat needs to be fully renovated. If the wind continues to grow, the captain may have to order the front part of the mast to be cut off, otherwise there will be a risk of a shipwreck.

But if it is cut off, the main mast will lose control, so they can only float around in the wind and waves...

The disaster never comes alone. A sea monster that is more than 6 meters long and weighs 500 kilograms is approaching the sailing ship.

The undulating sea is like a flat ground for it, without any obstacles, and even makes its movement faster.

The sea monster was silver all over, and its narrow body was like an eel that had been magnified hundreds of times. It had a strong, powerful jagged beak, and several pairs of small fins were growing on his abdomen.

This kind of sea monster is called [Dragon Eel]. It likes to attack sailboats on the sea and then eat crew members falling into the sea.

But what is most frightening is not its power in the sea, but its extraordinary wisdom.

As a sub-dragon monster, the dragon eel can speak aquatic language, and the smart individuals can also speak Shahuayuman language and common language, and are considered a cunning and experienced predator.

As this sea monster approached, an emergency message suddenly appeared from the core of the construction knight:

"#Warning: A large organism is approaching! The energy threshold is 5-6, and the threat is high!"

"His Excellency Corleon! There are hostile creatures in the sea approaching the ship!" The construction knight turned on the amplification mode and shouted loudly.

"Which direction?" Corleon asked urgently, and asked his subordinates to bring up his great sword.

"The current distance to the left of the bow of the sailing ship is 755 meters, 725 meters! It is rapidly approaching our ship!"

In such a short time, no one under the deck had time to take the big sword up, so Corleon pulled out the scimitar and stood directly next to the railing at the bow of the ship.

When the first mate saw the silver figure looming in the waves, he let out a miserable wail: "No! It's a dragon eel, an adult dragon eel!"

"We are in trouble! Who can speak aquarium on the boat?? We have a Shahua fish man here, let him come forward!"

"You are thinking too much. You must be malicious if you approach us at this speed in such weather!" said the sailor next to you, his face also turned pale.

Sometimes, some strong captains will pass through the area where the dragon eel is located through negotiation, such as using food or slaves on the ship as tolls.

Unfortunately, Old Martin is just an unknown ordinary captain, not the captain of the "Black Pearl" or the "Flying Dutchman". How can he communicate with the sea monster?

The structure of Carrick sailing ship is mainly made of wooden structure, with oak as the shipbuilding material.

Such a material cannot resist the collision and bite of dragon eels. As long as the sailboat is made into several large holes on the side, the entire ship will undoubtedly sink.

Dozens of soldiers and sailors planned to use the ship's carrier-based crossbow cannons to attack the dragon eel, but the shaking sailboat could not aim at it at all. Even placing the position was impossible.

The half-elf Thrannis stood on the platform and bent his bow and arrow, and his body swayed with the sailboat, as if it was on the flat ground.

"Hu~" After taking a deep breath and waiting for a few seconds, the half-elf shot out the special arrow in his hand.

The sharp arrow with a barb brushed the dorsal fin of the dragon eel and drew a blood mark on its back.

After being harassed like this, the smart sea monster immediately sank and planned to launch an offensive from under the ship.

"Where did he run?! Lancelot, report me a seat!" Corleon yelled at the construction knight.

"82 meters! It is about to collide on the left front, the bottom cargo hold deck!"

With the muffled sound of "touch!", a large hole several meters wide appeared at the bottom of the sailboat, and countless sea water surged in.

"I need people to repair it, come with me!" The sailor leader shouted to the nearby sailors.
