"There's an island up ahead. Swim faster if you don't want to die."
Risa's voice echoed in Orpheus's ears.
Fiona had been conscious the whole time.
Looking from afar, there was indeed an island up ahead.
However, the island seemed to be at the center of the storm.
She knew very well that if she passed out, Risa would definitely leave her behind.
She didn't know why, but she felt that Risa was completely unafraid of the wind and waves, not even the cold.
Every time a wave hit, Fios felt like she was sinking into the deep sea.
But Risa would pull her out of the sea every time.
When she resurfaced, she suddenly found that the wind and waves had calmed down.
Even the sunlight became bright. She felt a surge of warmth in her heart.
She was only a few hundred meters away from the island.
Compared to the wind and waves just now, a few hundred meters didn't seem to be a problem anymore.
Fios swam as hard as she could and finally reached the shore.
Lying on the soft sand, Fios enjoyed the warm sunlight and the fine sand.
She enjoyed the long-lost peace and the beautiful weather.
Fios suddenly thought of Risa and sat up abruptly.
Risa slowly walked out of the sea, dragging a big fish that was as big as her.
"You … why …"
"Aren't you hungry?"
"But … we don't have a fire."
"Go get some firewood."
"For what?"
"To make a fire."
"But, but how do we make a fire?"
"You have an IQ of 158." Risa glanced at Fios.
Fios was a bit annoyed. "Let's see how you make a fire."
Fios collected firewood from the beach.
Then she piled it in front of Risa. Then it was time to watch the show.
She wanted to see how Risa made a fire.
Risa came to the pile of firewood and snapped her fingers. The firewood was suddenly ignited.
Fios's eyeballs almost popped out.
"How did you do it?"
"You want to know?"
Fios nodded.
"I'm not telling you." Risa grilled the fish proudly.
Fios noticed that Risa wasn't sad about the shipwreck at all.
"Aren't you worried about your situation at all?"
"Why should I?"
"Then you don't worry about your friends?"
"Nope."
"You have no feelings for them at all?"
"Well, a little, but not too deep. Besides, if I can't die, they can't die either," Raisa said matter-of-factly.
"You're really confident in them, but this is a vast ocean, and there's a super storm outside. We're lucky to be able to survive. Do you think your companions will be as lucky?"
Risa glanced at Fios. Are you sure it's because of luck?
"Earlier … I saw a ghost ship … That can't be real, right? Was it just a hallucination? "Phoeos had always been brooding over this.
She felt that she was hallucinating because she was on the verge of death.
In fact, some experts and scholars had analyzed that the so-called ghost ships were illusions that people had when they faced huge waves.
Fios did not know if what she saw was real or just an illusion.
But that scene was very clear.
It was so clear that Fios could still remember it even now.
"It's true," Lisa said indifferently.
"You're lying. There's no Specter Ship."
"Fine, you're right." Risa glanced at Fios and did not argue with her.
…
Alger was floating on the sea.
Just then, a modified armed ship appeared in front of him.
A ladder dropped down from the ship.
Alger immediately climbed onto the ship.
"Uncle." Alger saw a dignified man standing in front of him.
His uncle, Chanin Leidon, was actually here.
"Who allowed you to act on your own?"
"Uncle, the Leidons have been hunting the black witch for three centuries. This is the first time we've been so close to her."
"You shouldn't have let ordinary people get involved." Chanin Leidon's eyes were like torches, and he had a cold aura around him.
"Domingo is with me too."
"I'm even more worried because of him. That kid has too many thoughts," Chanin Leidon said.
"Domingo is my friend."
"Your friend won't lead you to your death."
"We found the black witch's whereabouts, so we immediately followed her after informing you."
"Are you sure the black witch is heading toward the center of the storm?"
"Yes, I'm sure. I saw her ship enter the storm with my own eyes. She even used magic to sink the pirate ship that carried me."
"Pirate ship?"
"Yes, the ship we rented sank in the storm. Then, a group of pirates rescued it. Of course, those pirates aren't good people either."
Just then, a crew member hurried over with a pair of binoculars.
"Boss, there's a drowned person ahead."
Chanin Leidon took the binoculars and saw a person lying on a swimming ring in the raging sea. He held a bottle of wine in one hand and a barbecue in the other.
Chanin Leidon put down the binoculars and rubbed his eyes. Then he looked again …
Yes, that person was actually enjoying good food and wine in the storm.
"Is there an Asian on that pirate ship?" Chanin Leidon asked.
Alger froze for a moment before nodding. "There is one, but that Asian doesn't seem to be a pirate. He's also someone who got into trouble and committed suicide by jumping into the sea."
Chanin Leidon handed the binoculars to Alger. "Is it that man?"
"Yes, it's that man."
"Pull that person up," Chanin Leidon said.
A moment later, Chen Zhao was pulled up.
"You are?" Chen Zhao really didn't have much of an impression of Alger.
Alger had seen Chen Zhao a few times on the Conqueror.
However, Chen Zhao was in a daze every time and didn't notice Alger at all.
"Don't you recognize me?" Alger asked, looking at Chen Zhao.
Chen Zhao combed his hair and then poured the water out of his ears.
"Can I wash up? I need to change my clothes now," Chen Zhao said.
After soaking in the sea for a long time, the seawater had salted after coming ashore. It felt very uncomfortable on his skin.
"If you want to wash and change your clothes, that's fine. I can even provide you with food, but you have to answer my question first."
"No comment." Chen Zhao didn't even know who Alger was.
Chanin Leidon stood at the side silently. He frowned and kept staring at Chen Zhao.
This man was too calm, both at sea and on the ship.
