Silent Crown Chapter 543: Saints
At the beginning, there were turbulent waves and heavy rains.
Even if the etheric engine is running at full capacity, it can still only move forward at a speed of 20 knots.
Except for the necessary crew, everyone else was driven into the cabin, waiting for the storm to pass. Later, I don't know when, the violent storm gradually dissipated.
After passing the turbulent waves, they have passed through the thick fog and stepped into the depths of the sea of no light.
Even in the middle of the night, there are no stars.
There was dead silence and calm in the ocean, and even the waves disappeared. The cold and damp wind blew from afar, blowing into the bone marrow, and it was unbearable cold.
Here, it seems that the sound of breathing has been diluted, unnoticeable.
In the darkness, only the lonely light was shining, illuminating the route ahead.
On the deck, Ye Qingxuan sat on a wet chair, looking at the silent ocean under the searchlight, silently thinking about something.
I don't know how long it took, Igor, who had finished his shift, handed the rudder to the first officer, walked up to the deck with his fine wine, and sat next to Ye Qingxuan.
"Mr. Ye, don't you go to bed?"
"Can't sleep."
Ye Qingxuan shook his head, "The cabin is too thin, and the grunts from the next door are coming. Captain Igor, your boat is really good."
Igor helplessly: "Don't be too hard, Mr. Ye, this is just a clipper, not the sea fortress in Asgard.
It's just launched, and it doesn't even have a name. In order to accommodate your more than three hundred people, I even demolished my own captain’s lounge, so you should be more magnanimous and don't dislike the sound of snoring. "
Speaking, he shook his spirits:
"Come on?"
"Okay."
The liquor is rippling in the glass.
Ye Qingxuan held the wine glass and looked at the sea: "When I was outside, I thought there might be stormy waves everywhere, but I didn't expect it to be so quiet."
"Yes."
Igor sighed, "It's like sailing in the Styx."
"It's actually different."
Ye Qingxuan thought for a while and shook his head: "I have seen Styx, not as big as here."
"Haha, Mr. Ye is really humorous."
Igor was amused and didn't believe what he said.
Ye Qingxuan didn't care, just listened carefully and asked:
"You turned off the main engine? I can't hear the sound of the first wheel set. At this speed, I can't get to Alderney tomorrow, right?"
"It's okay, we are lucky, and our princess is the national flower in a free ride.
. "
Igor shook his head nonchalantly, and pointed to the sea below.
After feeling the line for a moment, Ye Qingxuan suddenly:
"Ocean currents?"
"Yes." Igor nodded.
To sail at sea, the necessary skill is to be familiar with the path of ocean currents.
"Every winter and summer, this ocean current will form from East Tianzhu, carrying a large number of roving spawning fish, all the way through the Asgard Strait, passing through Anglo and the Caucasus, and finally to the east.
Its name is ‘Igni’, which means ‘Daughter of the Sea’ in Highland. "
"That's it."
"The expected arrival time was tomorrow, but with her, I should be able to arrive in about four hours, right?"
Igor said: "However, I have heard of Alderney before, and few people are willing to go there.
It's just a desert island, no city, nothing but some trees. It is not close to the main air route, and it does not even function as a transit hub.
Mr. Ye, aren't you in a hurry to save Angru? Why are you going there? "
"Try your luck."
Ye Qingxuan answered frankly: "There is a fief of a friend of mine. If he doesn't lie to me, I should be able to find a way to save the country there."
"..."
Igor listened and couldn't help shrugging:
"Then I wish you good luck."
To be honest, he wished Ye Qingxuan would wave outside every day, not to go deep into the core. He saved all his life, owed a loan shark, and got a new ship from the Sacred City Shipyard.
Now the world has changed, and almost no ships have driven out to sea.
He also pointed to the profitable market by relying on it to make a fortune.
Although Ye Qingxuan's payment of his commission was enough for him to repay the loan shark, he even made a large extra. But no one dislikes too much money, right?
Therefore, the more stable the better, it's best for everyone to go around twice and go back home. What should you do?
Of course, I know it’s impossible to think about it with my ass.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help sighing.
The world is difficult. After being washed ashore, you still have to do this kind of life-saving work. How is this different from being a pirate in the Phantom Islands before?
He shook his head, drank the wine, stopped thinking, and started chatting with Ye Qingxuan.
"Mr. Ye, you rarely go to sea, do you?"
"Well, although I grew up in Anglo, there are not many opportunities to board a boat."
Ye Qingxuan took a sip of strong wine, and said lightly: "When I first came to Avalon, I was in such a ship, but that ship was very old and very crowded.
.
One hundred pounds, there is only one bed in the bottom bin, and ten days of board and lodging. The toilet is shared, and there is no way to take a bath. In ten days, I almost went crazy. "
"Most of them are like this."
Igor shrugged, "When I was young, I dreamed of wanting a broken ship that belonged to me. I drove it, took my woman, and went wherever I wanted.
Unfortunately, now that the ship is there, the woman hasn't landed yet. If you knew it, just get a few **** on the boat, so at least it's a bit lively. "
"Speaking of this, I remember it."
Ye Qingxuan smiled, "The ship I used to sit on has special services."
"Oh?"
Igor's eyes lit up: "How special?"
"Thirty pounds."
Ye Qingxuan raised three fingers: "For only 30 pounds, you can enter the captain’s sheep pen for half an hour... I didn’t understand it at the time. Hearing the sound of the sheep in the room, I thought everyone He is a caring person.
Later I heard that someone thought that thirty pounds was too expensive. After entering, he quietly shaved off the sheep's hair. Then the captain became angry, and there were no more sheep. "
Igor listened and couldn't help but pat his thigh: "Oh, what a pity."
Ye Qingxuan was silent for a moment, then smiled weirdly, "However, the sailor told us that although there are no sheep, you can still go to the captain..."
"Hahahaha!"
Igor laughed, almost falling off his yellow teeth, and raised his glass: "To the great captain."
"Respect the great captain."
Ye Qingxuan toasted and drank it.
The empty glass of wine was placed on the bench, and Igor was about to pour, but he saw Ye Qingxuan wave his hand.
"My drink is not good, so much is enough."
"That's a shame."
Igor didn't mind, he drank directly into the bottle, "I will do the rest"
In the long silence, he finished his wine, stretched out his hand, threw the empty wine bottle into the sea, and suddenly asked, "Is it very difficult to play a vicious person?"
"Huh?" Ye Qingxuan looked up, "Why do you say that?"
"Because you don't look like."
"Maybe this is my nature."
Igor sighed and pointed to his old face.
"Mr. Ye, I am forty-five years old."
He said, "I have been at sea for thirty years, and every day I see sailors who have committed crimes and run to the sea and villains with knives ready to go ashore to commit crimes. I have seen a lot of scumbags. , But you are not."
Ye Qingxuan was silent for a long time, scratching his head, "Is something wrong with me?"
"Vicious people will hate this world, Mr. Ye, because this world is not good for them, so they only pity themselves half a sugar
. But when you look at others, where does the compassion in your eyes come from? "
"It's probably the captain that you read wrong."
Ye Qingxuan shook his head: "Bringing so many people to death for my own sake, if this is not vicious enough, then what can I call it?"
"Probably... a saint?"
Igor thought for a long time, and said seriously, his serious appearance didn't seem to be telling a joke at all.
Ye Qingxuan was stunned for a long time, but was amused: "In the eyes of the captain, am I such a kind person?"
"You are not kind, you are just arrogant."
Igor got up and patted him on the shoulder, "A madman like you always thinks that he can change everything, so that's why there is so much mercy and sympathy for the world."
"Stop talking for a while?"
"No~IndoMTL.com~I'm sleepy."
Igor waved: "You go to sleep too, Mr. Madman, and think about how to toss the world tomorrow."
As soon as the voice fell, a loud noise burst out suddenly.
Boom!
The horrible neigh suddenly burst out from the dead ocean.
From the disturbing silence to the boiling madness is just a moment, countless blisters pouring out of the ocean, something rises from the extremely deep sea of darkness, rolling up a huge wave several meters high , Slammed into the bottom of the ship.
The steel wheel weighing hundreds of tons was turbulent like duckweed under this terrifying impact, and it was almost overturned.
In the epicenter of the drama, Igor's feet slipped and was thrown off the violently turbulent deck.
He screamed in shock and fell into the dark, boiling sea.
But in the air, a palm suddenly stretched out from the diagonal stab and grabbed his collar. The next moment, like the winch of a crane, a huge force burst out suddenly, forcibly pulling him back, and throwing him back. on the floor.
Igor's eyes went dark and he almost passed away.
In an instant, he passed by with death.
He panted in fear, looked up, and saw Ye Qingxuan in front of him, but he felt so strange.
In that thin body, something terrifying seemed to have been awakened, roaring and running, burning vigorously, bursting out power above the oven.
The dark pupils were ignited, and the solemn moonlight lit up.
As if the saint was resurrected, he walked down from the base of the stone statue, without jewels and laurel crowns, majestic.
"It's a pity, Captain Igor, you may not be able to sleep tonight."
Ye Qingxuan glanced at him and pointed to the dark ocean below, "When you finish urinating your pants, can you tell me what the **** is that thing in the sea?" (To be continued.)
