* Rumble … *
* Creak … Creak … *
The storm that almost drowned the sea was raging in the sky. It was so violent that it made people question life itself. The ink-black seawater turned into endless mountains that rose high into the sky and then fell down.
The sky had turned into another sea, and the sea had turned into an abyss that led to hell. The [Theseus] was thrown up and smashed down heavily as if it would be swallowed by the terrifying monster called the "sea" at any time.
Although this kind of battle between man and nature only lasted for two hours, it gave people the feeling that it would never end until one side completely collapsed!
"Mr. Jeros, are you sure we should continue to break out of this place? Why don't we hide in the [Sorcerer's Garden] for a while? Maybe the storm will pass soon. "
The scene outside reminded Elvin of the fear of the Black Sea storm when he first entered the sea.
However, the ship under his feet was a legendary battleship that had undergone a qualitative transformation. Compared to it, the harsh weather on the Black Sea was like child's play.
The height of the waves on the sea was almost 40 meters. It was like a natural disaster, the "Headless Wave".
Even the most powerful first-level battleship in the human world would be easily broken like a weak straw if it came here. Then, it would be sent on a one-way ticket to the bottom of the sea by the deep waves and completely disappear into the waves.
"No, it's best not to. We can hide in the [Sorcerer's Garden], but the anchor of the garden is still outside.
If we were brought to the depths of the Storm Belt when we weren't outside, we would've been left with no one to respond to us even if we cried for help.
So, having no choice is the best choice. Now is the best time to break out of this place! "
Without hesitation, Jeros, who was almost the same age as the Age of the Great Voyage, immediately rejected Elvin's suggestion and called the ship spirit to guard the captain's room with it.
Two hours ago, it was still sunny and breezy just a second ago, but in the blink of an eye, it had changed into a completely different appearance.
Jeros's arrogant words were still in their ears, and the sea quickly showed its other side. It swore to teach this shameless guy a lesson.
When they realized that something was wrong and opened the [Ancient Scroll], they were shocked to find that they had not only crossed the entire Shattered Star Sea through the "blue hole" but also reached the border of the known world.
They had even plunged into the "Storm Belt" that was the symbol of the "World's End".
"King of Sea Monsters" Kraken once said, "Cross the entire Shattered Star Sea, step on the Storm Route, and keep going." If one could survive the baptism of the terrifying storm belt, one would be able to reach the endless ocean, Forcus.
Back then, Jeros had only just stepped onto the Storm Route and had not even entered the Storm Belt, but he had already retreated in fear. He had made up his mind to board the legendary battleship and gather a large number of powerful teammates before returning to start over.
Although Elvin had a rich adventuring experience, he had never been to any of the borders of this world to see the storms there. Whether it was the westernmost "Storm Route" of the Shattered Star Sea or the easternmost "Antana Strait" of the Peacock Islands.
Of course, he would not choose to go against the experience of an experienced driver.
However, he suddenly thought of something. He did not notice that there were other dangers besides the storm, so he asked the great navigator with great interest.
"By the way, Mr. Jeros, since this is the western border of the known world, is the 'Golden Kingdom' nearby? Why is it not shown on our [Ancient Scrolls]? "
He had known about it for many years.
At the end of the Shattered Star Sea, where the Storm Route began, there was the last checkpoint between the known and the unknown world — the Golden Kingdom.
It still maintained the most primitive appearance of human civilization thousands of years ago. Humans and gods lived together.
Gods and humans made a pact.
The great gods were the rulers and guardians of the kingdom, and humans were the servants. They believed in the gods and worshipped the gods. This relationship had been maintained for a long time, long enough for the history books of the Old Continent to be broken several times.
Among them, there were a total of two gods who ruled the "Golden Kingdom".
One was the Sky Goddess, "Kulutena". She was a natural wind spirit, the God of Freedom who could never be bound. She was also a great existence who once went to various countries in the Old Continent to learn from them.
The other was the Ocean Goddess, "Thetis", who shouldered the natural responsibility. She had guarded the ultimate secret of this world since she was born and was also bound by that secret.
The thirteen "Golden Compasses" and the "Adventurer's Blood" passed down in the thirteen families came from the hands of this Ocean Goddess.
Because after guarding that secret for a long time, she hoped that there would be a suitable person who could crack it. When she got the "answer", she would also be able to free herself from the heavy responsibility.
When the thirteen Golden Compasses were gathered, they could open the door to the endless ocean, "Folkus".
Now, Jeros had five, Elvin had two, and the other belonged to the fifth disciple, Bach, in the Atlan family. They had already completed the positioning, but they had not had the time to get it.
Now, they were about to reach eight compasses in their hands, and they were not too far away from collecting all of them.
"Hehe, I've already noticed it when I got the [Ancient Scroll] back then.
As a magical force that guards the 'door', the 'Golden Kingdom' obviously has something special. This is also the first 'Secret Treasure of the Sea' that I've seen that has lost its absolute nature.
Perhaps … only the [Golden Compass] can guide us to find its traces in the chaotic sea with magnetic fields, ocean currents, wind, weather … It's just like how the Theseus was able to reach there last time. "
Jeros exchanged his judgment with Elvin as he took out a [Golden Compass] and opened its cover.
However, because they were in danger, the needle did not show the location of the "Golden Kingdom". Instead, it pointed firmly to the east, which was also the direction out of the storm zone.
Elvin also took out the compass that belonged to the Garriott family. Naturally, the direction was the same.
"Well, since we're already here, why don't we pay them a visit when we return …"
Suddenly …
Click, click, click …
A series of strange mechanical sounds rang out from their arms at the same time. Their faces instantly changed and they quickly jumped up.
Jeros shouted, "Don't worry.
"It's a sea monster! Theseus, prepare for battle! "
Dong!
A "Regenerated Doll" dressed as an officer of the Holy Lothar Empire beat its chest hard, and a firm voice came from its chest.
"Yes, Sir Commander! [Doll Army], revive! "
Whoosh … whoosh … whoosh …
Neat footsteps immediately sounded from the lower deck. A large group of fully armed wooden Regenerated Doll Idols rushed out of the cabin like flowing water. Even though the deck was shaking violently, they stood like trees rooted to the ground.
They hurled out black wooden blocks one after another, which quickly transformed into glittering ballistas and trebuchets.
In order to maintain the continuity of the space structure, although the power of witchcraft was added, everything on the [Legendary Battleship Theseus] was in the style of 1500 years ago.
In other words, this antique battleship in the shape of a Calais sailboat definitely did not have any cannons or even a rudder (at that time, it was not invented at all).
"Let's go to the deck and witness the first battle of this legendary battleship!"
Jeros had already walked out, and Elvin followed closely behind.
When First Mate Lamu passed by the newly born ship spirit, he glanced at it with a slightly depressed mood. Originally, there were only three real crew members on this ship, and now his duty as the first mate was going to be completely replaced by this fellow.
Soon, there would no longer be a first mate on this ship, and he would be replaced by a pet bird, Lamu.
"Sigh! Damn artificial intelligence. "
Life is not easy. Parrot sighed.
However, just as they rushed out of the captain's room.
Boom!
A huge creature suddenly launched a surprise attack from the bottom of the water at lightning speed, and the brand new legendary battleship was thrown into the air. The bottom of the wooden hull suddenly cracked open.
Before the sense of weightlessness reached its peak.
Whoosh —!
The shadows of Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter engraved on the four sides of the hull suddenly appeared. As if time was flowing backward, the damaged parts of the battleship quickly recovered to their original state.
[Ability: Wind of Time]
When the [Theseus] fell back into the water, it was completely unscathed, as if it had never been attacked.
Elvin and Jeros, who stood like nails on the deck, also saw the huge creature that was causing trouble.
Hiss —!
It was a "Ming Snake" that was more than a thousand meters long, and its head and neck had huge fins that were dancing on the surface of the sea. The black and white scales on its body trembled like waves, and it made an extremely sharp sound.
With a light flick of its tail, the monstrous waves were shattered, and with a slight movement of its head, its upper body would disappear into the clouds. It was difficult for the two people standing on the ship to see the full appearance of this terrifying sea monster.
Fortunately, the [Theseus] was not a conventional ship that could only stretch out its neck to be slaughtered.
Whoosh …
A total of sixty long oars on both sides of the [Theseus] stirred up the sea current, and on both sides of the [Theseus], the giant collision horn with the color of orichalcum at the tip of the bow gradually lit up with a bright light.
Dazzling rings of light exploded on it one after another, giving it many characteristics, such as sturdiness, speed, sharpness, bleeding, and the strongest anti-magic attribute of orichalcum.
The entire battleship was like a taut crossbow, and also like a mountain that was about to collapse, and it was about to topple over toward the giant snake with unstoppable force.
[Ability: Copper Horn Mountain]
However, this move had not been activated yet.
Boom! Boom!
Another two loud noises sounded, and two similar creatures that were not much smaller than the first "Ming Snake" crawled out of the sea and surrounded the [Theseus] in a triangular formation.
"This … Did the monsters in the Storm Belt grow up eating Jinkela?!"
