"Roar …"
The sea monster outside the door went crazy when it saw them. It hit the wooden door with all its might, which was hard to believe.
Through the crack in the door, Grimm and the others could clearly see other sea monsters coming from afar. They all felt hopeless.
In terms of combat power, it would be good if all the students in this room could kill one sea monster, provided that Lafite could use the vine sorcery.
They held the door tightly, trying to buy time. Suddenly, the calm male wizard apprentice shouted, "There's still hope!"
He dashed toward the hole in the cabin. Everyone thought of something at the same time, and hope was ignited in their hearts.
Everyone recalled that there were many lifeboats hanging on both sides of the ship with ropes, and these ropes were connected to the railings on the deck.
Chris's room was five stories high, which was only five or six meters from the deck. They could still climb up with their strength.
This male Sorcerer-Apprentice was the first to rush out. He grabbed a rope and climbed up. At this time, the other Sorcerer-Apprentices also followed suit and rushed to the rope.
Because of Anna's thin body and the injury in her eye, Chris carried her on his back.
Although Grimm's leg was injured, it did not affect his climbing ability. He had been a strong worker since he was young, so climbing seven or eight meters was not a problem.
Lafite, on the other hand, because of her injuries and the fact that she had lived a luxurious life since she was young, together with the fact that she was a girl with poor stamina and shoulder injury, she could only barely hang on the rope. She didn't mention climbing again no matter what, her expression a bit anxious.
As for the unfamiliar female Sorcerer-Apprentice who had been stabbed in the abdomen with a wooden stick, she was already on the verge of death. The excessive loss of blood had caused her to lose consciousness, and the table and bed blocking the door of the room had already been pushed away by the sea monster outside the door …
However, the people on the rope were shocked by another thing.
Everyone discovered that on the side of the ship, there were three giant "sea snakes" extending from the bottom of the sea and crawling toward the deck!
Oh my god, don't tell me these giant "sea snakes" live in groups?
Moreover, one had to know that the hull of the ship was more than 30 meters tall. One could imagine the length of these "sea snakes".
Boom!
All of a sudden, an earth-shattering explosion erupted above the deck of the ship. Everyone felt the temperature drop significantly. Then, they were horrified to find that the "sea snake" that was originally climbing up next to them was actually being frozen by a layer of ice at a speed visible to the naked eye …
"Woo …"
As the ice spread, the ship began to shake violently, as if a giant monster was rising from the bottom of the sea. As the waves surged, a giant "octopus" head suddenly appeared. It let out a painful howl, stirring up the surrounding waves.
"Octopus … giant octopus?"
Seeing this scene, everyone let out exclamations of disbelief. Following that, their expressions changed as they thought of something.
Could it be that the so-called "sea snakes" in everyone's eyes were just the tentacles of this terrifying octopus?
If that was the case, just how big was this terrifying big guy!?
For a group of acolytes who had never seen the world, this was simply a monster that would only appear in nightmares! It was a legendary item …
Suddenly, the octopus tentacle beside them seemed to have lost its strength as the ice spread over it. With a boom, it slid down into the sea, stirring up a large wave.
Grimm only felt a gust of wind attack him, and the rope swayed violently. He could not help but use all his strength to hold on.
"No, help!"
A despairing voice fell down. Grimm looked down and saw that it was the unfamiliar acolyte who had climbed the highest who had fallen into the sea.
Falling into the sea in this boundless sea was almost equivalent to a sentence of death.
At this time, Grimm suddenly realized that it was not just one person who had fallen. Lafite had also been blown down by the gust of wind, but fortunately, at the critical moment, she had used witchcraft to create a vine and firmly held on to the rope, allowing her body to hang in mid-air.
However, maintaining witchcraft required the support of magic, and with Lafite's magic value, it would be good if she could hold on for a few minutes. Thus, she was in a state of constant danger, and it was very likely that the next moment would be her sentence of death.
At this time, Lafite's delicate little face was already pale. She clenched her teeth tightly to prevent herself from crying, but tears were swirling in her eyes.
After glancing powerlessly at the raging sea below, Lafite looked at the others with pleading eyes, but it was unknown whether it was because of fear or dignity, but she clenched her teeth tightly, unwilling to beg for mercy. Her God Body, however, could not help but tremble.
At this moment, there were only two people who could help Lafite: Chris and Grimm.
However, Chris had already reached his limit with his sister on his back, so there was no way he could help. Thus, only Grimm was left.
Seeing Lafite's pitiful eyes, but her stubbornness in not willing to lower herself and speak softly, Grimm's heart softened.
Although this young lady of the city usually had a high and mighty attitude, looking down on Grimm, who was born a commoner, she had unintentionally helped Grimm understand a lot about the Sorcerer Continent. She also did not use her witchcraft to bully Grimm.
Moreover, after all, they were going to the unfamiliar Sorcerer Continent together to study. Perhaps in the future, they would have to look out for each other. If that was the case …
Grimm clenched his teeth and no longer hesitated. He took a deep breath and slid down until he reached the lifeboat at the end of the rope. He then thought of a way to secure himself on the lifeboat at the bottom of the rope, and used every second he had to pull up the vine that had been transformed by witchcraft.
Grimm had suffered a lot since he was young, and had suffered a lot. Therefore, he still had the strength to lift a hundred pounds of weight. Under Grimm's full strength, Lafite, whose life was hanging by a thread, was finally pulled back from the abyss of death.
"Phew …"
Because of the race against time, Grimm was quite tired. He was panting as he leaned on the hanging lifeboat to rest. Lafite was also in a state of shock. She could only stare blankly at Grimm, her eyes sparkling with tears.
Since he was young, he had rarely been stared at by such a beautiful girl. Grimm casually rubbed his nose, feeling a little uncomfortable, to cover up his embarrassment.
Putting aside Lafite's temperament, she was indeed a stunning beauty. She was a rare stunner. Otherwise, Grimm and the others wouldn't have been drooling that day at Krakatoa Harbor.
"Ugh …"
Just as Grimm was about to say something to ease the atmosphere, a fragrant wind suddenly blew over. Lafite hugged Grimm tightly and cried, "Boohoo, I thought I was going to die. I thought you guys were going to give up on me. I told my father long ago not to go to a Sorcerer Academy, a place that eats people without spitting out their bones, boohoo …"
Feeling the warmth of the graceful body in front of him, Grimm suddenly felt extremely nervous. He stood there stiffly, not knowing where to put his hands. Even the words he had prepared to say to ease the atmosphere were stuck in his mouth. He didn't know what to do.
Lafite's tears flowed into Grimm's neck, but Grimm didn't dare to move.
After a while, Lafite calmed down, seeming to realize that she had lost her composure. She let go of Grimm and looked at Grimm's nervous and evasive face with her red eyes. Looking at Grimm's bewildered look, she laughed, "What are you waiting for? Do you want to hang on the lifeboat with me for the rest of your life?"
"Ugh? Oh … no, no. "
Green stuttered a little because at that moment, he was actually a little moved by this beautiful girl. It had to be said that this was somewhat ironic.
After all, in the past, Grimm didn't like this arrogant girl who looked down on commoners. Although he didn't hate her, he definitely didn't like her either.
But just now, Grimm had been moved!
After feeling a little restless, Grimm forced himself to calm down. He nodded and said, "Yes, let's climb up quickly."
Then, Grimm noticed the bloody wound on Lafite's shoulder. He hesitated and said, "I'll carry you up?"
"Yes!"
Without any hesitation, Lafite immediately nodded and hugged Grimm from behind. Her curvaceous body was tightly pressed against Grimm, and Grimm could even feel her breath on his neck.
Suppressing the strange feeling in his heart, Grimm took a deep breath and began to climb up with Lafite on his back.
On the other side, Chris saw that Grimm and Lafite had resolved the crisis, so he didn't stop and continued to climb up with his sister on his back. In the blink of an eye, they had reached the deck and started to pull the rope that Grimm used to climb up, helping Grimm.
After a while, Grimm and Chris were leaning against the railing and panting like dogs. However, when they saw the hellish scene on the deck, they couldn't help but take a deep breath and even forgot about the exhaustion in their bodies.
The deck was more than a hundred meters long, and there were holes everywhere. There were hundreds of corpses of sea monsters that had barged into the cabin. There was even a giant octopus's tentacle twitching in the middle of the deck. Dark green blood flowed out, emitting an unpleasant stench.
However, along with the corpses of the sea monsters, there were corpses of sailors and sorcerer-apprentices. Occasionally, there were corpses that were badly mutilated or had died in strange ways. It was impossible to tell if they were human or sea monsters when they were alive.
* Boom! *
There was a loud noise, and everyone looked over. The room where Wizard Dira lived was already in pieces, but with the attack of the terrifying octopus tentacles, it had completely erased all traces of it from the deck, turning it into countless scattered wooden planks.
At this time, Wizard Dira's face was unnaturally red. The black eyepatch had been taken off, revealing a complicated mechanical gear that kept turning. It looked extremely strange and terrifying.
There was a sea monster's corpse under Wizard Dira's feet. It was completely frozen, but no one knew why it was so tightly protected. Even when the giant octopus's tentacle was more than twenty meters long, Dira still chose to use a spell to defend himself. He conjured a seven to eight meters tall giant ice shield to defend himself.
* Bang! * Shards of ice flew everywhere.
Wizard Dira once again used a spell to block the giant octopus's attack. He guarded the frozen sea monster's corpse with all his might.
On the other side, the remaining sailors blocked the door of the cabin with all their might, not letting the sea monsters enter.
And among these sailors, Grimm and the others were shocked to find that there were actually two sorcerer-apprentices, one male and one female, who had come out from Wizard Dira's room that day.
Moreover, these two sorcerer-apprentices had used a strange spell. It was so tyrannical that it was hard to believe.
