The surface of the sea suddenly darkened.
Just a moment ago, the sky was clear, but in just a few minutes, the wind and clouds had changed. The dark clouds that were constantly gathering gradually formed funnel-shaped clouds on the other side of the horizon. From time to time, a strong light would explode as if it was about to tear apart the heavens and earth. The sky was getting gloomier and gloomier, but the flash on the other side of the sea was getting stronger and stronger.
Another iron tree silver flower exploded, illuminating every wrinkle on Sal's face. His expression was solemn. Those who had been running on the sea for many years knew about this kind of celestial phenomenon. It was called the Sea Dragon Cloud. Usually, when the Sea Dragon Cloud appeared, it wouldn't be long before there would be a violent storm. If one's luck was bad, they might even run into a tornado at sea. That would definitely be an epic disaster!
"Quick, quickly find a place to hide from the wind. If you don't want to die, everyone, move! "Sal shouted at the top of his lungs.
His mood was extremely gloomy.
First, he had lost the Naga people on Pearl Island not long ago, and now he had bumped into the Sea Dragon Cloud. A storm feast was waiting for him, so how could he relax?
The sailors tried their best to raise the sails so that they could sail away from the sea. All the oars under the hull started to move. The men ate and drank hard. Fine beads of sweat appeared on their naked bodies, and they used all their strength to fight the sea.
Sal held onto the railing and looked down. A scarlet red ribbon of water appeared in the sea. The water ribbon was like blood, causing Sal's heart to sink. At this moment, a loud thunderclap rang out between heaven and earth. An extremely intense bolt of lightning pierced through the clouds like a spear thrown by a heavenly god and exploded into the sea not far away, instantly stirring up a clump of seawater.
Seawater shot out from the sky and turned into rain lines that fell, smelling salty and bitter.
Then, it began to rain.
In the blink of an eye, the rain intensified and turned into a violent storm. The visibility on the surface of the sea immediately decreased. The wind and rain pressed down on people, making it hard to open their eyes and breathe. The surface of the sea was turbulent, and a large wave suddenly rose, as if a small mountain had been lifted from the surface of the sea.
The waves slapped towards the ship, and Sal shouted with all his might, "Full starboard!"
If a ship was slapped in the face, it would definitely be a situation where the ship would be destroyed and the people would die. The Blood Shark's ship would be no exception. The helmsman's face was pale. He hurriedly turned the rudder and steered the ship parallel to the waves. As the waves crashed down, the ship suddenly tilted and slid backward. The people on the deck and at the bottom of the cabin lost their footing. Fortunately, after the wave passed, the ship was not submerged, but many places were flooded.
Sal wiped his face and looked at the world outside the ship that was trembling in the wind and rain. His mouth was full of bitterness.
On the other side of the sea, another seamount rose. This wave was even taller than the previous one. When the wave reached its limit, it turned into a rolling wall of water that pressed down on them. Sal's eyes were filled with shock. At this moment, a huge shadow suddenly covered the Blood Shark's ship. Then, the sea wall slammed down, but part of it was blocked by the shadow. As the sea wall shattered, it turned into turbid currents that flowed to both sides.
Only then did Sal see clearly that there was a warship in front of his ship. The hull of the ship, which was like a fortress on the sea, was more than ten meters tall. On top of it, there were turrets that looked like spikes distributed around the ship. This giant warship was clearly painted with the pattern of a killer whale. Only Killer Whale Harbor would use such a symbol, and it was a direct descendant of Bloody Earl Eric.
At this moment, iron chains descended from the ship and hung onto the deck. The sailors pulled up the iron chains and connected the components of the railing to fix them. A deck was opened at the bottom of the ship, connecting to the Blood Shark ship. In the cabin door, a Knight wearing blood-red armor and a white cloak said, "Mr. Sal, please come to the ship. Young Master Carlo wants to see you."
"Got it." Sal frowned.
That was the Bloody Earl's personal guard, Blood Fang Knight. Naturally, only the Earl's blood relatives could use the Blood Fang Knight. The young master named Carlo was the third son of Earl Eric. He was impulsive and bloodthirsty, completely inheriting Earl Eric's personality, so he was the Earl's favorite. Otherwise, he wouldn't have sent the Blood Fang Knight to his side. One had to know that there were only twelve Blood Fang Knight beside the Earl.
Sal walked across the deck with uneasiness in his heart. With a wave of his hand, the Blood Fang Knight had a sailor drag the hinge cable and raise the deck, completely isolating it from the stormy world outside. The interior of the ship was surprisingly calm. The people coming and going were all walking lightly, shuttling through the huge hull like ghosts. Sal walked through the passageway leading to the upper floor of the ship. The Blood Fang Knight followed behind him unhurriedly, always maintaining a distance of three meters.
This constant distance created a huge pressure in Sal's heart. It seemed that as long as one looked carefully, they would be able to smell the faint smell of blood floating in the air. That was the pressure from the Blood Fang Knight. Which of these elite guards above Level 15 wasn't someone whose hands were stained with blood? In their eyes, Sal knew that he was as small as an ant.
He coughed dryly and forced a smile on his face, "Why did Young Master Carlo leave Killer Whale Harbor at this time?"
The Knight behind him had a silent expression on his face, as if he hadn't heard Sal's question. Sal had hit a nail and had no choice but to give up on the idea of probing. In the end, he was taken to a room on the upper floor of the cabin. When the room opened, a faint hot smoke floated in. There was actually a bathtub in this hundred-meter-square space. The bathtub was filled with moderately warm water. Was there a figure appearing there? Nai???
In the corner of the room, two men were stepping on a turbine, which drove a blower beside them. The blower, made of cowhide and wood, was stirred up by manpower, creating a gentle breeze for the room. The breeze dispersed a little of the water vapor, so Sal saw a domineering back. It was a man sitting in the bathtub with his back to him. Every piece of skin on his body was covered in scars. The dense scars seemed to be the best annotation of this man's experience in the battlefield.
Beside him, there were two completely naked maids who were using soaked towels to wipe his body. Hearing the sound of the door opening, the man turned around and threw a rough face into Sal's eyes.
Sal shivered and hurriedly bowed to the ground, "Young Master Carlo."
"Hey, Mr. Sal. What are you doing? The floor is wet. Get up. "The man's voice was like the sand in the desert, leaving echoes in this sealed space.
Sal hurriedly stood up and said, "What brings Young Master Carlo here?"
"Of course it's the order of my old man. I almost destroyed a lowly mutant. I actually transferred me back at this critical moment. To be honest, it makes me quite unhappy. But forget it. After all, it's that lord who's in charge this time. I have to give him some face. So, Mr. Sal, have you completed your mission? "Carlo asked with a smile, reaching out and gently pinching the maidservant's chest.
The woman refused and welcomed, making Carlo laugh incessantly.
Sal was sweating profusely. A moment later, he said, "This subordinate is incompetent. I have already captured three Nagas. But on Pearl Island, I lost them … "
Suddenly, a scream rang out from the bathtub. Carlo was absent-minded and squeezed hard, instantly deforming the woman's chest. The maidservant had never been able to withstand Carlo's hand strength and immediately fainted from his pinch. Carlo let go of the woman and turned to look at Sal with a smile. "This joke is a little big, Mr. Sal. You're still so funny."
He waved his hand and said, "Come down and take a bath together."
Sal didn't dare to disobey his orders and walked down the bathtub with his clothes on. Carlo asked him to come over and suddenly grabbed his neck with one hand. "Tell me, what's going on, old thing!"
"Listen to me, Young Master. It's not my fault. It's a Sir named Allen … "Sal told the whole story of the Pearl Island incident, not daring to hide anything.
Carlo asked carefully for many details, and Sal answered honestly. After listening, Carlo sneered, "Alright, in order to enter the Nether River Corridor, the old man paid a huge price to invite the one known as the Twilight Prayer." If it weren't for him, would you have found the entrance to the Nether River? Not to mention catching the Naga Royal Clan. After paying such a price, you actually lost Naga? "
"Young Master …"
"Stop, I don't want to listen to your excuse to cover up your incompetence!" Carlo sneered, "I told the old man long ago that there was no need to hide anything at all. Just send the army to escort Naga back. You have to hide it from the eyes and ears of the empire and let you blood sharks transport the goods. Great, now you idiots have lost all the goods. "
Carlo grabbed Sal and said, "Now tell me, where is that Allen fellow? Since I'm here, I have to bring something back. Think about it, if you don't bring that fellow's head back, the old man will probably go crazy, right? "
Sal shouted, "He should be at Ark Harbor, Young Master. He's with Roger. I've asked around. They have goods to ship to Ark Harbor. "
"Ark Harbor? It's the territory of that useless Earl Ouban, right? " Carlo laughed, "It really gives me a good excuse. Do you want to take this opportunity to take down Ark Harbor? The Ridley family doesn't have anything else, but they have a lot of money. "
"Someone, turn around and go to Ark Harbor!"
"Yes, Young Master." Blood Fang Knight's response came from outside the door.
Sal heaved a sigh of relief and suddenly fell into the water. Carlo pressed his head down with one hand and pressed him into the water. Sal struggled desperately, but how could he break free from Carlo's hand? Carlo snorted, "A useless old thing like you is a waste of air to live. Go to hell ahead of time to atone for your sins!"
The sound of water rang out, and a moment later, Sal stopped. Carlo lifted him up and threw him on the floor. The old man's eyes were wide open, but he was no longer breathing.
