Chapter 121 Tempest
Chapter 121 Tempest
The opportunity Liu Po mentioned came together in the early morning of the next day. There was no sunlight in the early morning of this day, and people could only judge the time by clocks. The dark world was not brightened by the sunrise. Barely see the outline of the world.
But along with the faint light, there are also uneasy water waves. After a night of heavy rain, the wind finally blew up!
Anyone who has lived on Cang Zhan Star for a long time knows that the most terrifying thing in the rainy season is not the rainstorm, but the storm. The destructive power and lethality of the storm are far greater than that of the rainstorm.
Especially for fleets parked on the water, encountering a storm is a test of life and death.What's more, judging from the torrential rain this year, the storm will be more terrifying than previous years.
In the early morning of this day, everyone woke up very early. In other words, many people could not sleep peacefully last night. In the vast water world, they could not see the direction when they wanted to move forward. As for getting lost.
When the pointer on the watch points to six o'clock, countless people are already standing by the window, looking at the line of water and sky outside. It seems that a dense bead curtain has been hung between the sky and the earth, and it has not stopped since last night.The purple-red lightning that cracked the sky from time to time was never gentle even after resounding through the night.
The gradually rising waves on the water attracted everyone's attention. Not only the fleet of the Crystal Palace, but all the fleets sounded the alarm, asking everyone to be ready to enter the state of resisting the storm.
In the Crystal Palace fleet, all the crew of the small boats had been evacuated back to the big ship last night.Most of the small boats have also been taken into the cabin of the big ship, or pulled near the big ship for escape.
As for the big ship, with the participation of Xie Feng and many talents in the design, there is no need for everyone to brave the storm on the deck to stabilize the ship. All operations and controls can basically be completed in the control room, and there are already personnel in the control room Be in place and ready to respond to any emergencies.
The fleet in Zone B is also ready for battle, and their equipment is considered good. Most of the ships are exchanged through simulators, and the technological level is still at the top of Cangzhan Star. Of course, there is no possibility of extraterrestrial technology. Otherwise, there is no need to worry about storms.
Because of the communication and familiarity in the past few days, the distance between the two fleets is not far away, and some are even within the range of the other's fleet for the convenience of boarding.The two bases have established short-distance communication with each other and can communicate with each other.
Considering that after the storm comes, the ships cannot be too close to each other, and the various fleets have begun to gradually spread out and distance themselves.They have reached a tacit understanding that has never been seen before. After all, it is unlucky to hit a reef, but it is unacceptable to hit a teammate's ship.
The waves on the water surface became bigger and bigger, and the swing of the ship became more and more obvious. Amid the deafening thunder and lightning, the sound of the wind gradually increased in decibels, as if the horn of attack was sounded.
Finally, the gust of wind came galloping as if falling from the sky, like a violent king, vowing to turn the water upside down.
Shu Shuishui was in the wheelhouse of the main ship, looking at the outside world through the tempered glass.Shu Shuishui realized that it was too early for him to be afraid of thunder and lightning last night, and today's storm also refreshed his knowledge of wind, which made Shu Shuishui always have the illusion that the strong wind would sweep down the lightning from the sky.
"Shui Shui! Is there any talisman or formation that can be used? I feel like this is not going to work!" Nan Ge watched for a while, feeling that the situation was much worse than imagined.
In fact, Shu Shuishui had prepared talismans for the storm before, but the guardian formation must have a fixed site, forming at least nine spirit stone drop points, the more spirit stone drop points, the better the formation effect.And floating on the sea is unstable, it doesn't work at all.Not only the guardian formation, but almost all formations require a stable environment. "The materials are limited. There are only 23 windshield talismans and ten thousand jin talismans. However, the weight of the thousand jin talismans needs to be weighed carefully, and the effect of the two talisman seals can only last for three hours, and the scope of action is limited."
Nange and the others came back from the Huanxing Continent and have been improving their knowledge of cultivation. They know that the production of talisman seals is very demanding. In addition to materials, they also need talent and stable mental strength. Shuishui was made in a hurry, and it was not easy to come by.
After learning about the scope of the talisman seal, Nan Ge judged the wind direction of the storm at this time, and took advantage of the storm to readjust the formation of the fleet.He also contacted Liu Po in Area B and told them that some talisman seals and those who can use talisman seals would be sent there.
The two fleets took the lead in order to prevent the sudden turn of the storm. This situation is too common in the rainy season of Cang Zhanxing, and those who often fight are caught off guard.
After Chen Po received the notice, he also quickly adjusted the formation of the fleet. The big ships were outside and the small boats were inside. They kept a safe distance from each other and stabilized on the south side. As for the north side, the Crystal Palace was in charge.
Shu Shuishui looked at it for a while, and understood that Nan Ge planned to use the wind-shielding talisman to form a wind-shielding wall to block the ships behind, and use the thousand-jin talisman ship as the landing point of the spirit stone to strengthen the effect of the wind-shielding talisman.
But this requires precise control of the wind direction, and now the wind direction of the storm outside changes frequently, I only hope that the moving speed of the ship can keep up with the speed of the storm.
Various orders have been issued, Nanfang, Xie Feng, Ember, Nange, Shu Shuishui and Gu Langu have all gone to the ship that will be the landing point of the talisman. They plan to take action at any time if they find something wrong.
Everyone was waiting for the battle, hoping that the storm would be a little gentler.
In just a few minutes, the surface of the water had already become turbulent, and the strong wind caused all the ships to drift a little. The people on each ship were trying their best to stabilize their ships.
Half an hour later, the storm stabilized at a certain intensity, and the waves on the water gradually became more regular. Everyone successfully survived the first storm without using talismans.
Although the wind direction of the storm changes frequently, causing chaos, but as long as the fleet adjusts to face the wind direction, the risk of rollover is still within a controllable range.
Of course, this is only the Crystal Palace and Area B. The quality or improper handling of other fleet ships has already deviated from the course and sunk. The storm in the Doomsday Era still makes many people struggle.
Such a strong storm lasted for two hours without weakening at all, and even gradually strengthened.Nan Ge's judgment was not wrong, especially when a waterspout rolled up on the water in the distance, the magnificence and terror made many people panic.
The waterspout rolls up from the surface of the water and winds upwards to connect with the clouds. It seems that dragons soar into the sky one after another. The scene is spectacular, but it also makes people's hairs stand on end.
In the storm, Shu Shuishui could still hear uncontrollable exclamations from all directions, and people who have lived on Cang Zhan Star for many years have never seen such a scene.
A series of water spouts rose into the air, and together with them were creatures in the water that had no time to escape and could not break free from gravity.In addition, many eddies also appeared on the water surface, which seemed to correspond to the waterspout, but in the opposite direction.
Such a situation is too terrifying. The fleet is in a dilemma at this time, and no one can judge the direction of the waterspout and vortex.
The position of the vortex is still stable, but several waterspouts are moving, and the direction of movement is exactly the direction of the Crystal Palace and Area B.
The person who received the order held the talisman tightly in his hand, did not dare to breathe hard, and listened carefully to the movement in the earphone, for fear that he would miss a second.
The waterspout came with a strong gravitational wind. Looking up, I couldn't see the top of the waterspout. The sky was dark, and the electric light kept flashing overhead. Compared with the waterspout right in front of me, the terrifying purple-red lightning was also Temporarily lost its power.
With Nan Ge's order, all the boats in the fleet facing the waterspout were affixed with wind protection charms, and the boats in the center were also affixed with a thousand catty amulet, so that despite the wind and rain, the boats would not move.
After the head-on waterspout failed to pass through, it supported for a moment, then collapsed and disappeared in an instant.The waterspouts next to it were all blocked by the wind shelter talisman and shifted in direction.
The formation of the fleet is constantly being adjusted to always ensure that the ships with the talisman seals are in front, forming a shelter from the wind.If the wind direction suddenly reverses, the fleet in area B at the end of the fleet will complete the task of resisting the storm and waterspout.
Although the rest of the fleet did not have talismans, they tried their best to avoid waterspouts and whirlpools due to their limited scale. However, there were always unlucky ones who directly bumped into a waterspout, and the whole ship disappeared like a small fish in the rolled up waterspout. In the water curtain.
After more than two hours of darkness, the world finally returned to calm. After the storm passed, many people still stayed on the deck, cheering with tears when they really believed that they survived such a doomsday scene.
Regardless of whether they are familiar with each other or not, they don't mind a tight hug at this time, and convey joy with loud shouts.
The wind is gone, and it takes its own madness to sweep the next place.Most of the heavy clouds in the sky seemed to have been swept away, and the light gray sky finally had sunshine through it. There was still a light rain in the sky, but this lingering drizzle was also very cute.
It seemed to be soothing after the injury, and it fell softly on the hull.
Almost all ships have some degree of damage, some are so severe that they are unable to run, and some are minor and only need to replace some parts.
In addition to resting the ship, another important task is search and rescue.
Two ships on the flanks of the Crystal Palace and Area B were hit by rocks and tree debris thrown out by the waterspout, causing them to sink. Several people were missing before they could be rescued.
The other fleets also had a similar situation. Everyone was responsible for one direction, and the small boats quickly spread to find survivors.
Although the storm was over, it was not until four o'clock in the afternoon that the fleet set sail again and headed for the vast north.The missing people are doomed not to be found all, after expanding the scope as much as possible, the search can only be given up if there is no result.
After the first storm this summer, they finally determined that the Doomsday Era had really come, with a destructive aura and no mercy.
After the initial joy and cheers, more weight weighed on everyone's heart.They really realized that the Great Migration is fighting for their lives, but at the same time they are also fighting for their lives. Even if it is the end, they have to fight for a way out in such a dark world.
The fleet was sailing smoothly on the water, but at this time several people came to the meeting room of the main ship of the Crystal Palace.Some people have calculations in their eyes, some people plan to make a deal, and some people are calm and relaxed.
These people are one of the leaders of the other fleets, and the purpose of coming here is also very direct, which is for the magical ability to resist the storm just now.
When the Crystal Palace and Area B collided with the waterspout, almost everyone thought it was over, but to everyone's surprise, the waterspout that collided head-on was knocked apart, and the rest of the waterspouts were also destroyed. All of them were deflected by some kind of external force, which is definitely not accidental.
"Crystal Palace, as the initiator of the great migration, shouldn't things that can withstand the storm be shared? Even if we need to pay some valuable items, we won't suffer heavy losses." This is a fleet that lost several ships in the storm .
"I'm here for business, the price is negotiable." This is Filo, who is used to doing business, and Dong Shijun is sitting next to him, and he boarded the boat with the cheek.
"I'm here to apply to join the Crystal Palace, but I don't know if I can be approved." This is Liu Po.
Hearing Liu Po's words, the rest of the people couldn't help showing surprise. The fleet in Area B is quite large. Isn't Liu Po joking?
Nan Ge stretched out his hand and shook it with Liu Po. Both of them had a tacit understanding in their eyes, obviously they knew each other well about today's joining. "Welcome, I understand your request, and I will not treat people in Area B badly."
Liu Po smiled. "I'm relieved, that's why I came to join."
Nan Ge looked at Filo again. "The things about resisting the storm are not for sale for the time being, and I'm afraid the business will not be done." He said and looked at the person who first angered the Crystal Palace. "Crystal Palace is the initiator, but not the protector. It's okay to do what you can, and forgive me if you don't have the ability. If you are dissatisfied, you can leave at any time. Now the mainland is full of floods, and the waterways extend in all directions. You don't have to go together and look at each other."
