Chapter 254

"Go to the cabin and plug that hole, or we'll all die here!"

The first mate's red eyes gritted their teeth and gave the order. His bloodshot eyes were still staring at the whale that had begun to dive rapidly. The rope at the end of the whaling fork was firmly tied to the strong main mast of the ketch.

Until this time, he did not give up hunting the white whale.

The rope "swish" shortens quickly...

"be careful, hold on to the boat!" The chief mate reminded the crew of the impending shock.

The next moment, the whole boat was tugged by a huge force.

It tilted almost 45 degrees to the left. Fortunately, barrels of whale oil at the bottom of the cabin perfectly acted as the ballast weight, so that the whaling ship did not roll directly.

But before Fisher could be happy, there was a loud click in his ear.

The main mast of Harpoon was broken!

Of course, the last piece of string tied to it was dragged into the water. The white whale, who broke the main mast of the sailing boat, regained "freedom" with its whaling fork.

Moo and roar -

at this time, the sailors of the whaling ship look miserable.

A whaling ship without its main mast will lose most of its power. Will this crazy whale give itself a chance to repair its mast?

Without keeping them waiting, the whale quickly gave its own answer.

The water under the ship was rolling and roaring violently, and it was surging along the side of the ship.

It seems that even they have the consciousness, have foreseen the coming danger, and are desperate to escape from the whaling ship.

The whale, which had already dived deep into the water, began to accelerate from several hundred meters deep. Its strong body stirred the current, but the beast with more than 200 tons rushed to the bottom of the harpoon like an arrow!

On top of it, the huge amount of sea water is easily squeezed away without any hindrance.

Next second.

Boom!

In the roar of explosion, the sailors on the ship, no matter whether they have grasped the sailboat or not, are all thrown out by the overwhelming force in a moment.

"Ah

"Help

The harpoon, which was the first to bear the brunt of the attack, was directly knocked off its keel. After a tail flick, the whale broke into two pieces and capsized.

In an instant, the whole income of going to sea for a year has turned into nothing!

However, the sailors who survived the collision should not worry about the harvest of a year, but about their own lives.

A whaler came out of the water and swam to a broken plank nearby.

But before his fingertips touched the board, a huge mouth full of sharp teeth behind him had been snapped off!

"Ah

The screams of terror came to an abrupt end.

The Revenge of the unknown species of white whale is much heavier than that of ordinary animals. Even the sailors who have fallen into the water and are hard to predict their future life and death are caught up with by it one by one and killed directly!

At present, the storm horn to the kingdom of tyro is passing by.

What I saw was such a bloody massacre scene!

There is still a long way to go. A group of people who have noticed the movement of the sea have gathered at the bow of the ship.

"It's like a violent creature!

The whaling ship is so unlucky that it encounters an opponent that it can't resist.

I just don't know if this big white whale has been able to reproduce stably and become a new group of demonized creatures? "

Milan's bad luck is coming to an end in a few days. Recently, their mental state is much better than before. At least they have recovered from the shadow of "angel coming".

Of course, people who are less fortunate than themselves will not gloat. They just say their guess to themselves.

"It may not be a coincidence."

Next to him, Ambrose, still in full armor, frowned and said.

In fact, dozens of kilometers away, Elvin's seabirds have already sent back images of whaling boats here.

But the Cape storm was already at full speed, and even if Elvin wanted to save the whalers, he couldn't help it.

At this time, when he heard that Ambrose seemed to know something secret, he couldn't help wondering, "is there anything strange in this?"

Ambrose didn't hide it on purpose. Although it was the internal information of the church, it didn't involve the secret belonging to the church and was not within the scope of confidentiality.

"This sea area is called the atarid sea, and it is also the favored place of the ancient Black Sea God hipponou..."

atarid sea area has some special features in the whole black sea, with very good climate and rich fishery resources.

Moreover, it does not belong to any modern state-controlled area. Fishing boats from all countries can travel freely. It should be a very famous fishing ground.On the contrary, very few fishing boats dare to come here.

According to legend.

In fact, this is the hometown of hipponoe, the ancient black sea goddess, who is moody. Only when he is protected by his divine power can he enjoy peace and wealth forever.

But because of the evil deeds committed by the residents (mainly fishermen) to the gods (see Chapter 239 for details), this sea area is blessed as well as cursed!

Any act of fishing here will offend the goddess, and the final result is to be buried in the sea and swallowed by fish!

So the residents living nearby, no matter how hungry, will never fish in this sea area.

Only the desperate gamblers and the foreign speculators who only see the whale oil will challenge the authenticity of the ancient legend.

Of course, they obviously lost the bet now...

"it's just unexpected that although the ancient sea god has been sealed, he still has the bottom line power to maintain the curse."

Ambrose told Elvin about the past and legend of the sea witch recorded in the church's ancient dossier.

His origin, 800 years of sinking into the Black Sea... It was not until he was sealed more than 300 years ago that the era of great navigation came!

"For the former Black Sea God.

Having suffered such a miserable past, there is indeed reason for any retaliatory action.

It's just that, after all, it's blocking the way of human development. "

Although a few listeners sympathized with the encounter of ancient sea god hipponou, from the standpoint of human beings, if they were the decision makers, they would have made the same decision on that day more than 300 years ago!

they just witnessed this kind of fairy tale story with their own eyes, and they had no experience with Elvin, who was not even born in China except Elijah and faletis It's really novel for me.

Strictly speaking.

This transnational mission is the first step for Ivan to take a bath in front of his home. In this magnificent and magical sea, there are so many mysteries waiting for him, like the arted sea.

Speaking Kung Fu, "storm horn" has been approaching the sea area where the "tragedy" just happened.

When Elvin hesitated to intervene, it might be the punishment from the gods, but he realized that this battleship was not easy to be provoked.

Moo and roar -

after a long hiss, the ill fated white whale has dived into the water and disappeared.

In the end, all the remaining survivors were let go.

Well, to be more precise, there are only two people.

One is the first mate Fisher who suffered a major blow and lost his companions, relatives and friends, career and empty eyes.

The other is that even if they are rescued, they still shout incoherently: "forgive me! Hipponou! Great! Goddess! ... and so on.

Seeing what they looked like, Elvin was not interested in asking questions.

No matter what they came to this blessed and cursed sea area for whaling, it had nothing to do with them. They waved their hands and said in a dispirited mood:

"give them a place to live, and let them get off the ship when they get to nisk!"

Ivan's words made Fisher's eyes a little brighter.

The former first mate seems to realize that he has been saved now. He slowly bows to Elvin's direction and then follows the sailor away like a puppet.

"Storm horn" set sail again and continued to march towards the kingdom of Tyrol.

At the same time, the peace and tranquility of the past have been restored.

Only after a long time.

In the surging waves, a pair of extremely beautiful eyes suddenly opened in the snow-white spray, looking at the direction of "storm horn" leaving, cold and merciless!

...

the rest of the trip was calm.

Evan spent most of his time studying and researching as an apprentice in the specially modified laboratory on board.

Occasionally, I come out to interact with them in Milan, fishing and practicing sword. Occasionally, when I am interested, I will show my cooking skills.

Take fencing as an example.

Among them, even among the most basic sailors, three lucky men get the captain's advice every week.

And thanks to a lot of practicing "potions" during this period of time, Elvin often takes out a few bottles as rewards for outstanding performance.

Some newcomers who have just joined the "storm horn" have experienced the speed of their own progress before and after landing the ship, and they are surprised to find that the most valuable qualification of the crew on the "storm horn" may not be a bright future, but an opportunity to make them truly extraordinary!

Under normal circumstances, they dare not even think about it before they become official officers.

This already very positive and progressive mentality and cohesion, once again unprecedented rise.Elvin's most intuitive feeling is that the crew on the ship, not only did not have a sneak like on other ships.

It's more like playing chicken blood, mobilizing all of their subjective initiative, making this battleship like an arm commander, as if alive.

This situation is also easy to understand. No matter which world employees have a simple idea: "don't talk to me about my ideal. My ideal is not to work, so we only talk about money!"

So Elvin never talks to his crew about ideals (ER, occasional mental interference is not included).

Ivan concluded that every captain has his own style of command.

Some people turn every crew member into a part of the machine, which is simple and efficient, while others boldly delegate power to let professional talents give full play to their role.

And Elvin has it, of course.

His most powerful management means are rich booty distribution, fencing guidance and personal rewards (potions, etc.)!
