"This is Sea Demon Eye!!"

On the ship deck, Deville and Captain Vito saw clearly the huge Abyss that was constantly expanding on the sea, and couldn't help but exclaimed.

"How the hell could we encounter something like this here, and it's so close to us? How could we not have noticed it before?"

Vito's complexion became extremely ugly.

At the same time, he immediately yelled at the sailors on the boat.

"Immediately full right rudder, turn, immediately, immediately turn away from me!!"

At this time, there were also sailors on the ship who noticed the anomaly. All of them had a look of fear on their faces, and they were hurriedly trying to maneuver the ship to avoid the Abyss in the sea ahead.

Sea Demon Eye is not a living thing, but a collective name for the huge whirlpools formed in seawater during extremely severe rainstorms. Once this vortex is formed, it will quickly expand and generate strong traction.

It is almost impossible for a ship to escape once encountered.

Even if they are a giant ship like them that can travel through Open Ocean Region, facing a natural disaster like Sea Demon Eye, once they get close, they will not be able to escape the fate of being swallowed up and falling into the depths of the sea.

If it really reaches that situation, the ship will be destroyed and everyone will die.

"I'm afraid this Sea Demon Eye has just appeared, otherwise it would have been impossible not to have noticed it before."

Deville frowned tightly, crossed her two jade-green palms together, and squeezed hard, leaving red marks on her fair skin. She looked at the bearded captain beside her and asked.

"Captain Vito, the scale of this Sea Demon Eye is still in its early stages, and its traction is not very strong yet. Can we still move to avoid it!?"

"Miss Deville, I'm not sure about this, I can only give it a try..."

While Captain Vito was speaking, he had taken out a small sculpture of half man and half fish from his arms. As a faint blue light burst out from his palm, the mermaid statue seemed to be activated.

A gentle blue light emitted from the statue, and then a huge mermaid shadow appeared above the warship, completely surrounding the entire warship.

As the phantom appeared, the powerful traction emitted by Sea Demon Eye seemed to weaken a lot, and the ship that was originally difficult to turn finally began to change direction little by little.

"Success!!"

Seeing this scene, the maid Penny's face was filled with joy.

Deville also breathed a sigh of relief.

As the last inheritance of the Silver Luminous Tulip Family, if all of them are buried in the Eastern Sea, then the glory of the Silver Luminous Tulip Family will completely disappear from the world.

Thinking of her father's instructions before his death, she immediately clasped her fists and prayed.

It's just that fate plays tricks on people, and things in the world often don't go as planned.

Just when everyone thought they could successfully avoid Sea Demon Eye, the mermaid sculpture in Captain Vito's hand suddenly made a subtle crisp sound.

The sound was quite subtle, but the people present were all high-level knights with high levels of cultivation, so they could hear it clearly, and everyone's eyes immediately focused on the sculpture.

Soon, I was surprised to find a small crack as thin as a hair on the face of the mermaid sculpture.

And this just started very quickly, a series of crisp sounds continued to sound from the sculpture.

Soon cracks appeared on the small sculpture, interconnected with each other, and densely distributed almost throughout the entire sculpture.

"No, the energy of the mermaid portrait is not enough to resist the traction of Sea Demon Eye!!"

Captain Vito was the first to react with a look of horror on his face.

The knight Spiritual Power in his body frantically mobilized to slow down the damage to the mermaid statue.

It's a pity that it doesn't have much effect. As more and more cracks occur, the huge shadow above the ship begins to flicker, appearing and disappearing uncertainly, and it seems that it may completely dissipate at any time.

At this moment, the direction of the ship has not been completely reversed, and the strong traction force in the abyss has already pulled the ship towards Abyss little by little.

Although the speed is very slow, the expansion speed of Sea Demon Eye is quite rapid.

If this continues, even if the mermaid shadow can hold on for the time being, it will not be able to escape from the range of the magic eye. On the contrary, as time goes by, the traction force emitted by Sea Demon Eye will become stronger and stronger until it completely engulfs all the ships.

Seeing this scene, Deville turned pale. She did not expect that her group did not die in Black Disaster, did not die in the enemy's robbery, and did not die in the mouth of the powerful sea beast. Instead, they would die here in the end.

"Miss Deville, these three battleships cannot be saved. I can take you away. This way there is still some hope."

Captain Vito, who was experienced in sailing, naturally understood this. He looked at Deville with a heavy look and said slowly.

"No need Captain Vito, Tulip family thank you for your help over the years. Please leave. I choose to disappear with Lineage..."

Seeing Sea Demon Eye getting closer and closer, and the mermaid silhouette above his head becoming more and more unreal, Deville bit his lips and shook his head resolutely.

"Penny, please leave together with Captain Vito."

She finally looked at Penny, the maid who had been with her for many years, and spoke softly.

"Miss! Penny wants to come with you!"

The blonde girl Penny's face turned pale. Although she was frightened that she was about to face death, she still shook her head firmly to express her refusal.

Seeing this, Deville didn't say much, just clasped his hands, looked at the sky and closed his eyes.

"Father, if Deville is going to live up to your expectations..."

She was filled with regret.

At this moment, Penny's surprised voice suddenly sounded from his ears.

"Miss, look there's a ship there!!"

"Ship!?"

Deville opened his eyes and followed Penny's line of sight.

I saw Lightning Glow flashing continuously in the sky, and there was indeed a big ship on the other side of Sea Demon Eye.

It looks like the ship of the Tian Yuan Continent.

Tian Yuan Continent is the name Silo Kingdom people give to the land where Northern Yan and Southern Qi are located.

After all, many years ago there were no two countries, Northern Yan and Southern Qi, but they belonged to the same big country.

Tian Yuan Continent was the ancient name at that time, and Silo Kingdom has continued to use the ancient name.

"It seems that he is also being pulled by Sea Demon Eye and cannot escape."

Seeing that the big ship was even closer to Sea Demon Eye than them, she couldn't help but sigh.

I can only blame bad luck for meeting Sea Demon Eye here.

"It's useless. That merchant ship is so close to Sea Demon Eye. Even if the people on board want to abandon the ship, it's useless. It's a pity..."

Captain Vito naturally noticed the merchant ship, he shook his head slightly.

At such a close distance, even he might not be able to get rid of the traction of Sea Demon Eye, so he had already sentenced the owner of the merchant ship to death in his heart.

Within a hundred meters, even a high-level knight commander, a Divine Form level warrior, would have difficulty breaking free.

This is the scary thing about Sea Demon Eye.

Seeing the merchant ship entering a hundred meters away from Sea Demon Eye, everyone seemed to have seen the horrific scene of the merchant ship being engulfed.

One hundred meters... fifty meters... ten meters...

At this moment, Deville, Penny, including Captain Vito all opened their eyes wide and stared at the merchant ship with their mouths wide open, as if they had seen something impossible.

I saw that the merchant ship sailed directly past Sea Demon Eye.

That's right, it just passed by smoothly, without even seeing any bumps, just like driving on a calm sea.

"This is... a phantom!?"

Vito rubbed his eyes vigorously, thinking that he had some kind of hallucination. However, when he opened his eyes again, the ship was still in front of him, even closer to them.

But what shocked and bewildered him even more was the merchant ship passing by Sea Demon Eye.

The terrible natural disaster that almost all the fleets could not avoid had shrunk a lot at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The powerful traction force emanating from it also quickly diminished, and the pressure on the crumbling mermaid shadow was greatly reduced. The shadow that was about to extinguish actually seemed to stabilize at this moment.

"How... how is this possible!?"

Captain Vito, to be precise, everyone on the warship opened their mouths to the extreme, and their eyes were rounded, as if they had just woken up from a nightmare.

At this time, the merchant ship had completely crossed Sea Demon Eye and passed three to four hundred meters away from the warship where they were.

At this time, Captain Vito and others discovered that the merchant ship was traveling extremely fast, even faster than their warship with a special structure and a bow image bonus.

What is surprising is that the sails are not hung out at all. Even if you take a closer look, you can see that the cabins on the deck are temporarily spliced together with broken wooden boards. It seems that it has suffered a major accident.

In addition, they also discovered that there were huge shadows surrounding its hull.

Because the distance is not far and the strength of these people is not weak, it can be clearly seen at this moment that those huge shadows are clearly tyrannical sea beasts.

After a long moment of shock, everyone finally realized what was going on, and Deville quickly spoke.

"Captain Vito Quick, take this opportunity to change direction. Let's follow that merchant ship."

Captain Vito also quickly realized something and immediately disappeared from the battleship to steer the ship himself.

Although I don't know what happened, due to the merchant ship just now, the scale of Sea Demon Eye has obviously shrunk a lot, and the pulling force that is difficult to get rid of has also weakened a lot.

But it was only temporary. As the strange merchant ship moved away, Sea Demon Eye began to expand again, and its traction force also increased.

If we don't take this opportunity to leave as soon as possible, I'm afraid I won't be able to leave after a while.

The three warships quickly changed direction and followed the merchant ship, gradually moving away from Sea Demon Eye.

The reason why they chose to follow the merchant ship was that they found that the traction force of Sea Demon Eye behind the merchant ship was the weakest, almost to the point of being imperceptible.

This also made their departure process quite easy.

In just one stick of incense, he finally left the danger range completely.

"Yeah!! We are saved and finally left that damn Sea Demon Eye!!"

The girl Penny danced excitedly and shouted loudly, her face full of joy of surviving the disaster.

Deville and Vito also had smiles on their faces. Nothing makes people happier than surviving a desperate situation.

"But Captain Vito, do you know what happened to that merchant ship? It was able to safely cross Sea Demon Eye, and even suppress Sea Demon Eye!?"

Deville looked at the large merchant ship farther and farther ahead, with a bit of confusion on his smooth and jade-like face.

"I'm sorry, Miss Deville, I don't know what happened to that merchant ship. I have been sailing at sea for so many years, and this is the first time I have seen this situation. I have only heard that some extremely powerful Demon Beast in the deep sea have the ability to affect Sea Demon Eye."

"But putting it on a ship is unheard of!"

Captain Vito shook his head slightly. At this moment, he was still extremely shocked. The scene that happened before was completely beyond common sense.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never believe that such a thing existed.

"The powerful deep sea Demon Beast?"

Deville murmured softly in his mouth, his eyes suddenly burst out with bright luster, and he stared at the merchant ship getting further and further away.

"Maybe it's not the boat, but the people on the boat..."

"That should indeed be the case. After all, that big ship seems to be just an ordinary large merchant ship..."

Captain Vito touched his chin, and this time he agreed.

"I didn't expect Young Master to be able to completely ignore a natural disaster like Sea Demon Eye. He is so powerful..."

In the temporary and simple shack, Qingzhi looked at the huge waves outside the ship that could not be approached at all, and couldn't help but marvel.

"Yes, the power of Young Master Lin is indeed a bit incredible."

Taishan, whose body was covered with bandages, nodded in agreement.

In just a short period of time together, Lin Sheng has brought them shocks beyond their imagination time and time again.

So this time, even in the face of a devastating natural disaster like Sea Demon Eye, after Lin Sheng asked them to ignore it, a few people stopped thinking about it.

Facts have shown that they did not need to do anything, and they passed Sea Demon Eye, which is regarded as a sea grave, safely.

"Did you see those three ships just now?"

Shi Die said with narrowed eyes.

"Of course I saw it. The ships of that size and shape should not be those of Northern Yan and Southern Qi, but should be the style of the Silo Kingdom."

Qingzhi thought for a moment and replied.

"And ships of that size are definitely top-notch ships over Silo Kingdom. They are only owned by the royal family and some big Lineages."

"So what? Facing Sea Demon Eye, we can't just stand and wait for death. If we weren't following us, I'm afraid they would have been swallowed up by now."

Taishan curled his lips and said disdainfully.

"You're right, no matter how good the ship is, it's useless."

Qingzhi nodded without any meaning.

"How long until we get to Southern Qi?"

Shi Die asked suddenly.

In recent months, Silo Kingdom ships can often be seen, so they don't pay much attention.

"At this rate, we should be able to reach the Sea Region line of Southern Qi in another 7 days."

Qingzhi looked at the chart and replied with certainty.

"Is there still seven days left!? It's really fast enough."

Shi Die said with some emotion.

You must know that even if an ordinary ship travels smoothly along the way, it will take at least two months to get from Northern Yan to Southern Qi without any accidents.

And it seems that they only need half a month.

"Huh!? That ship seems to be catching up."

While he was thinking about it, Shi Die noticed that the Flagship behind the Silo Kingdom was emitting blue light, bursting out at extremely fast speeds, and actually closing the distance little by little.

"What do these guys want to do when they catch up?"

Qingzhi frowned slightly.

"Whatever, if you have any bad thoughts, just destroy them."

Taishan didn't take it seriously, and the sound of the urn sounded in the airway.

"That's right." Shi Die crossed his arms, nodded slightly, simply looked away and ignored it.
