Chapter 1207 Set Sail
In the world created by Gresco, Lin Li once sailed on the Endless Sea on the Star for a long time, so he no longer had much freshness about everything on the sea. But others are different. Representatives of several top forces, such as Joseph, have only been kings and hegemons in the inland of Qingfeng Plain. They really don't have many opportunities to come to this endless sea. Therefore, when they were truly in the world of the ocean and felt the majesty of the endless sea, each of them could not help but feel infinite emotions.
However, this kind of emotion did not last long. No matter how majestic and magnificent the scenery was, I couldn't stand looking at it for a long time. In this endless sea, no matter you want to see it or not, and no matter what mood you have in your heart, you can see the boundless ocean everywhere. After a long time, everyone will get bored.
The Star left the Port of Oatland and had just been sailing at sea for three or four days. Basically, few people came to the deck to enjoy the eternal sea scenery. Only Calderson, who regards the Endless Sea as a treasure trove of food, still often runs to the deck to see if there are any strange ocean monsters.
What's more terrible is that this endless sea is completely a world of water elements, and there are very few magic elements in other series. This makes those magicians from the inland unable to kill time even if they want to meditate. Not too possible. Unless they are magicians who specialize in water magic, the efficiency of other magicians meditating in such an environment is extremely low. I am afraid that meditating for a day may not yield more than meditating for an hour inland. .
But at this time, Lin Li, the captain, was not idle. Although the Star had already conducted a trial voyage, problems of all sizes would still arise during this first ocean voyage. After all, Lin Li had no way to completely copy the Starship in Gresco's world. He could only use the real Starship and the alchemy battleship of the Jindu Kingdom as a reference to build the current Starship on his own. This was somewhat behind closed doors. mean.
Even though the Star seemed to be sailing smoothly during its trial voyage, it seemed to have reached a point of perfection. However, if it didn't go on an ocean voyage, some problems might never be exposed. During these three or four days of sailing, various problems gradually emerged on the Star. Although they were not big problems, many of them required Lin Li to personally investigate and find solutions.
While adjusting the Star, Lin Li also exchanged some information about Jindu Kingdom with representatives of various forces in Qingfeng Plain. Although the forces in Qingfeng Plain have not been in real contact with the Kingdom of Jindu for a long time, through cooperation in various fields and various business channels, they have gradually learned more about the Kingdom of Jindu.
Although the Kingdom of Jindu can be regarded as the well-deserved number one in the Anriel world in terms of alchemy battleships and navigation technology, it is not as scientific as Lordaeron on the mainland, which is famous for its alchemy colossus. In the Kingdom of Jindu, both magic and martial arts are developed in a fairly balanced manner, and there is no situation where one is valued and the other is belittled.
In such an environment, magic and martial arts have been extremely developed, and it can be said that they have reached a very high level. Although it has not yet reached the point where legendary mages are everywhere and legendary swordsmen are as numerous as dogs, it can be thought that the power of Jindu Kingdom in these two aspects cannot be ignored.
In the Jindu Kingdom, the largest force is the Illuminati, and the Illuminati has a very transcendent status in the Jindu Kingdom, just like the Supreme Council in the magical world. It can be said that every decision made by the Illuminati will have a huge impact on the Jindu Kingdom, an influence that even His Majesty the King of the Jindu Kingdom cannot compare with.
Therefore, this time when going to Jindu Kingdom to participate in the founding ceremony, everyone has to consider not only how to contact Jindu Kingdom, but perhaps more importantly, how to deal with the relationship with the Illuminati. Otherwise, I am afraid that no matter how good the talks with the Jindu Kingdom are, if the Illuminati has a word, everything may change immediately.
Sailing on the sea is very boring, but it also gives the representatives of the Qingfeng Plains forces a very good opportunity to communicate. After all, when we were in Qingfeng Plain, everyone was busy with their own affairs. Unless it was absolutely necessary, how could we have so much time to sit together and communicate. But now, the scenery outside is unchanged, and the space is full of water elements. It is not a good time to practice martial arts or meditate. Apart from communicating with others, there is really nothing to kill time.
However, when the Star had been sailing for nearly ten days, an extraordinary storm swept the Star into it without warning. The reason why it was said that there was no warning was because even Julio the Blackbeard, who had been living in the endless sea for generations, did not notice any signs of the coming storm beforehand.
In fact, it was not only Julio who did not notice it, but even Lin Li, who was a high-level Saint Realm expert and understood the rules of the world, did not notice the abnormal changes in the rules in the space in advance. Everything broke out suddenly, as if the Star suddenly came from one world to another.
However, such a situation cannot be said to be common in the Endless Sea, but it is by no means very rare. Sailors who ventured on the endless sea called this sudden storm the wrath of the Poseidon, thinking that they had done something to offend the Poseidon and incurred the Poseidon's punishment. And this is the truly scariest place in the Endless Sea. In comparison, the threat of those giant ocean beasts is nothing. After all, the giant ocean beasts each have their own territory and will not wander around in the sea for nothing, so they have safe channels.
However, this Poseidon's Wrath has no rules at all, and the so-called safe channels cannot avoid the attacks of Poseidon's Wrath. The only thing people who make a living on the sea can do is to worship the sea god in various ways when sailing out to sea. In fact, this is to seek psychological comfort.
This storm was completely beyond the understanding of the people on the Star, as if the endless sea was showing its majesty to them. The sky, which was originally a clear blue, turned as gloomy as the bottom of a pot in a blink of an eye, with only the thunder and lightning lighting up the space from time to time. On the sea, strong winds set off huge waves tens to hundreds of meters high, making a huge roar like landslides and earth cracking when they fell. In such a storm, not to mention the ships on the sea, even the giant ocean beasts would be crushed into minced meat.
In the world created by Gresco, Lin Li had encountered storms at sea on the Star, but he had never encountered a storm of this scale. Lin Li didn't know whether the real Star would be safe in such a storm, but he knew that his own Star was really in danger.
Although the Star is huge in size, three to four times the size of the giant alchemy ship of Jindu Kingdom, it is basically a huge steel fortress on the sea. It has been sailing very smoothly on the sea, and ordinary wind and waves cannot shake it at all. But now, this steel fortress is obviously unable to withstand the wind and waves. It is like a canoe, being tossed up and down by the huge waves.
At the same time, perhaps because the Star is made of magic metal, the thunder and lightning in the sky are being attracted to the Star in large numbers as if they have encountered a big magnet. Those streaks of thunder and lightning looked as thick as a bucket at their smallest, and the power contained in them was no less than a full-strength strike from a legendary strongman.
This scene was simply no less impressive than when Lin Li and others fought against the dragon corpse of the Dragon of Destruction, but these were completely natural forces, created by the power of rules contained in the endless sea. To be honest, the opponents Lin Li and the others faced were almost equivalent to the endless sea.
Of course, for the Star, the power of Poseidon's wrath is very astonishing, but from the perspective of the Endless Sea, it is probably like a person sneezing on an ant. When a person sneezes, 90% of the ants will be blown away, and the current Star is not much better than the ants.
When the endless thunder and lightning struck the Star, Lin Li quickly opened all the defenses on the Star, and also pushed the power of the defense to the maximum. As a high-level Saint Realm expert who understands the rules of the world, Lin Li has a very clear understanding of the power of the endless thunder and lightning in the storm. He knew very clearly that with the defensive capabilities of his Starship, it was impossible to hold anything back in the face of the bombardment from outside.
For a time, all the defensive magic patterns and defensive arrays on the Star exploded with brilliant and dazzling light. The light shrouded the huge Star, and in this extremely dark space, it was like a sun setting on the sea.
And almost at the same time that the Star's defenses were all opened, the endless lightning storm also bombarded it, surrounding the Star and bombarding it again and again. Under the power of the bombardment, the huge Star was constantly spinning, and the layers of defense were peeled off like an onion.
When encountering this storm, the sailors on the Star were almost desperate, because since records began, it seems that no one has ever heard of anyone being able to escape from the wrath of Poseidon. Although each of these sailors has considerable strength, under this storm called the Wrath of the Poseidon, their strength is simply insignificant. A thunder from outside is enough to turn these sailors into flying stars in an instant. Gray.
However, at this moment, Julio rushed out of the cabin, his legs like nails nailing him to the violently turbulent deck of the ship, and roared loudly at the sailors hiding everywhere: "Damn it! Do you want to wait to die like this? Why don't you all get up to work and drive the ship out of the storm area together!"
Although the roar of thunder and lightning outside was deafening, Julio's roar followed the roar and reached the ears of every sailor. At the beginning, none of these sailors moved. After all, based on their understanding, any struggle would be in vain when encountering a storm like Poseidon's Wrath. But soon, they discovered that the defenses raised around the warship actually blocked the destructive thunder.
These sailors are not sailors from a powerful maritime country like the Kingdom of Jindu. They used to be sailors who followed merchant ships along the coast of Qingfeng Plain. They had never known any ship that could survive the bombardment of Poseidon's wrath. But now, even though the ship's hull is still shaking violently, and even though the defenses are being breached layer by layer, this gives the sailors hope of survival.
Especially when they saw that the bearded man who had just roared at them was desperately adjusting the rudder of the ship, as if he wanted to drive the ship out of the storm area. They couldn't help but hear a voice in their hearts: Even if they die, they have to fight hard before dying, otherwise the death will be too painful.
No one who can be a sailor in the Endless Sea is a coward. The reason why he gave up resistance at the beginning was because he felt from the bottom of his heart that he had no strength to struggle in the face of a storm like the Poseidon's Wrath. But now, with Julio taking the lead, and seeing that the battleship's defense was not easily broken, hope was rekindled in the hearts of the sailors.
At this time, the Star was swaying violently like a roller coaster. UU Reading www.uukanshu.net However, these sailors had lived at sea for many years and would not be thrown out. Although their movement on the ship seemed very difficult, they still moved towards their posts step by step, and immediately got into work as soon as they arrived at their posts.
Amidst the deafening roar of thunder and the roar of huge waves, the shouts of the sailors also sounded on the Star. With the joint efforts of the sailors, the Star, which had been manipulated by the storm and seemed to have lost the power to resist, finally began to move towards the outskirts of the storm with difficulty.
Seeing this scene, Lin Li put away the realm world he had prepared.
In fact, this storm, known as the Wrath of the Poseidon, is only terrifying to ordinary people. If an ordinary merchant ship encounters this kind of storm, the ship will definitely be destroyed and everyone will die. However, as a high-level Saint Realm expert, Lin Li was already close to a god. It would not be difficult to protect the Star and get out of this storm.
The reason why he didn't take action at the beginning was that Lin Li wanted to test the Xingchen and the sailors on the Xingchen. After all, these sailors were all recruited from the Qingfeng Plain. Although they are all experienced and capable sailors, the difference between the Star and other ships is still too big. The experience accumulated on other ships is on the Star. Not all are useful.
