"Yes, no matter what you say, I will do as you say!"
Above the ocean with a blue sky, Lin was lying on the deck of a wooden ship. The one steering the ship was an Atlan.
Lin had found this Atlan in the food storage room. After a brief moment of surprise, Lin asked it about the ship.
This ship was mainly prepared for a few dozen Atlan. They also wanted to escape the disaster by taking a ship to escape the city.
However, the Atlan on this ship were not so … united.
The main reason was that their 'faith' was not united. Some still believed in the Order, some did not. As a result, after traveling for a while, they began to argue with each other.
Those who believed in the Order believed that escaping like this was a mistake and must return to ask for forgiveness … while those who did not believe in the Order insisted on continuing the journey.
Then, they began to fight. During the fight, almost all of them died. Only a few survived, but no one knew where they went.
In short, the only Atlan on this ship was the one steering the ship. According to it, its personality was relatively … cowardly. So, when the fight broke out, it would hide and hide. However, it was still beaten up by the other Atlan. Because of that, there were many wounds on its body. Later, it hid in the storage room and fell asleep there until Lin arrived …
Then, it looked at Lin in surprise. Then, it was willing to work for Lin.
Because it thought that Lin was the messenger of the 'Sea God'. Other than the false gods and micro-machines that the Order propagated, the Atlan worshipped many other gods. The one they worshipped the most was the 'Sea God'.
That was why their central area was also called the 'Sea God City'. The appearance of the Sea God itself was like the character Lin was currently playing. It was half-fish, half-Atlan.
Of course, the messenger of the Sea God also looked like this. These legends had always been circulating among the Atlan. So, when it saw Lin, it was stunned.
Later, it thought that Lin was the Sea God who had come to guide it. So, it happily followed Lin's orders.
This seemed to save a lot of trouble. In short, Lin now had it steer the ship to the destination of the sea dwelling plan. She also told it a little about the sea dwelling plan.
This Atlan also expressed its willingness to join the sea dwelling plan and live under the sea. So, Lin was now able to easily head there.
However, it was still quite far from the destination. Therefore, it would take a long time for them to arrive. Therefore, he decided to lie down and wait here for now.
Just like that, the waiting time slowly passed …
Suddenly, Lin heard something. When Lin raised her head, she heard a voice. He discovered that there were some huge black figures flying in the sky.
These creatures … should be birds. Their wingspans were more than three meters long. They flew around the ship for a while before flying off into the distance.
As they flew away, something fell from the sky and landed in front of Lin with a thud.
It was … Atlan's head.
The remaining Atlans from the previous battle were attacked by these birds. Although these birds were large, Lin felt that they could not catch an adult Atlan.
That being said, they did eat Atlan. Lin looked carefully at the head that had fallen in front of her. He didn't seem to have eaten much of this head, and felt that it was a waste.
Although Lin could eat and look around, it was obviously not a good idea to let Atlan, who was driving the ship, see it. However, it could be used for other things.
There were ropes all over the ship. Lin took one and tied it to the head. Then, she tied the other end of the rope to a wooden stick and threw the head into the sea.
Next, Lin looked at the floating head beside the guardrail. Lin's purpose in doing this was to see if she could catch anything.
Earlier, she had eaten some dry rations and fruits in the food storage room. However, Lin found that the food was originally not bad. But now, she felt that it was' unpalatable '.
Although it could still be digested, it seemed that this body was protesting that it should not eat this food. So, Lin decided to catch some sea creatures to eat. Although she might not be able to catch them.
The Atlan's head soon attracted some small fish. They seemed to be attracted by the blood and gathered around in large numbers to peck at it.
These small fish could not be caught. However, Lin soon saw a relatively large creature swimming over.
This creature had many tentacles on its head. Its entire body was dark red. When it swam over, it instantly spread out its tentacles. Then, it hugged the entire head into its tentacles.
Seeing that, Lin immediately pulled it out of the water. Even after being pulled out of the water, it still hugged the head tightly without letting go. In the end, it was brought to the deck by Lin. Lin noticed that it was over a meter long. This was a creature called 'Great Red Squid'.
It looked like it would be very tasty.
Lin pried its tentacles away and threw the head into the water. Although the head might attract more and larger creatures, it couldn't be left on the ship.
"This is …"
Just as Lin was about to eat, Atlan, who was driving the ship, came out of the cabin. When he saw the big red squid on the deck, he was very surprised. "Is this … Did you catch it?" He asked.
"Do you want to eat it?" Lin asked him.
"This … I won't eat it" Atlan said: "But I can cook it for you …"
"There's no need for that" After becoming like this, Lin found that cooked food did not taste as good as raw food. Perhaps in preparation for living in the sea, her diet had changed a lot.
However, Lin knew that there were places where she could 'cook' things even in the sea.
"If that's the case, then I'll go replenish the crystal's energy" Atlan ran towards the ship. The Atlan said as it ran towards the bow of the ship. There, it began to twist a wheel-like structure. This method of replenishing energy was very similar to charging.
"Ah! That's coming! Help! " After twisting a few times, he suddenly screamed and ran to Lin's side while crying: "You can protect me, can't you?"
"What's coming?" As soon as Lin asked that question, she saw Atlan scrambling into the cabin.
He really was … cowardly.
Then, Lin moved to the front of the ship. Looking forward from above, Lin could see that the sea in the distance was actually … a sea of darkness.
Large dark clouds were spreading in the sky, and under the dark clouds, the water was constantly surging. It seemed like a storm was coming. Since it was still quite far away, she could only hear the faint sound of it.
However, the sound of the surging water was getting louder and louder. The storm was getting closer and closer.
Storms at sea were very common, so there was nothing strange about it. As long as she dived into the water, there would be no problem. Lin quickly moved to the railing and prepared to jump over the railing into the water.
"Are you going to abandon me?" Suddenly, a voice came from the cabin. The cowardly Atlan suddenly ran out and ran behind Lin. He grabbed Lin's tail and said: "Isn't the God of the Sea able to control storms? You should be able to help this ship avoid the storm. Please save me, I don't want to die! "
Lin did not answer. Speaking of which, the reason they worshipped the God of the Sea was not really to worship the sea. They just wanted to have a target to 'pray' to. The content of their prayers was basically to ask the God of the Sea to protect them when they went out to sea.
So, what they really worshipped … was their own safety …?
Lin's tail swung hard, trying to break free from Atlan's grip. However, he seemed to be holding on tightly. It was not that easy to break free.
"Save me! Don't go! Don't go! " Atlan was still crying. At that moment, Lin noticed that the storm in the distance was getting closer and closer. The water under the ship was also beginning to sway uneasily.
The dark clouds in the sky had turned the sea into a dark night. The sound of the wind could be heard in the sky. Lin felt like … it was too late.
But why would the storm come so close in such a short period of time? However, there was no time to hesitate. Lin pushed Atlan away and tried to jump into the water. However, he immediately pounced on her and pulled her back to the deck.
"Why did you abandon me!" He roared at Lin, as if his cowardice had been completely replaced by anger.
"I know, you're definitely not the God of the Sea's messenger. You're sent by the Sirens. You're the one who caused the storm!" It seemed to have become incoherent. Lin felt that Atlan's mental state seemed to be quite abnormal.
"I'm going to kill you, and then I can get rid of the storm!" Suddenly, he pulled out a sword from his waist and slashed at Lin while shouting.
Lin tilted her head slightly. The sword landed on Lin's shoulder. This feeling … was quite painful.
Lin did not hesitate because of the pain. At that moment, Lin forcefully knocked Atlan with her head. The deck was already wet from the rain. Atlan immediately slipped and fell to the ground. He rolled a few times and hit the railing behind him before stopping.
"Ah …" However, he did not immediately get up. Lin saw that he was in extreme pain and moaning. It was as if … Lin had hit a vital part of his body.
Kaboom!
A bolt of lightning flashed across the sky. The entire black sea lit up. Lin felt the ship begin to sway and spin violently on the sea.
It was as if she was being pulled into a whirlpool.
Lin glanced at her shoulder that was completely dyed red with blood. In addition, the sea outside was shaking uneasily. Jumping into the water now seemed quite dangerous.
If that was the case …
She might have to die again.
Although that was what she thought, Lin would not stop until she died. Lin looked around and found a bag on the side. She quickly picked up the bag and tore off a part of it to wrap around the wound on her shoulder. Then, she moved to the railing, climbed up the railing and jumped into the surging sea.
"You're not allowed … to escape!"
Lin heard a voice the moment she jumped up. She turned around and saw that Atlan, who had recovered at some point, had also jumped over the railing …
