After a period of panic, the Sailors, who were out of danger and gradually woke up under the influence of sedatives, controlled the "Future" under the command of Nina to avoid Storm and huge waves, and returned to the correct channel.
Behind them, "Death Announcer" had completely disappeared into the mist on the sea surface and the thunder that flashed from time to time. I am afraid that "Future" had already left it far away in the short time it took to fly.
As for the purpose of "King of Immortality"'s sudden attack on them, Angel speculated for a long time but could not confirm it.
However, the opponent's ship was obviously seriously damaged. It may have gone through a big battle. The attack on "Future" may just be to force the flagship of Pirate Admiral back to avoid being tricked.
"Death Announcer" is heading in the opposite direction to us. Did they just return from the dangerous sea area east of the Sonia Sea?
After thinking about it, she and Klein returned to the inner cabin and stood at the door of the captain's cabin.
Their rooms are at opposite ends of the corridor. If there are no "special circumstances", they should separate now.
"Um... good night?"
Looking at each other for a moment, Klein squeezed out two words, then felt funny at his hesitation, and put a smile on his face again.
"Good night."
Angel responded. When Klein wasn't paying attention, he leaned in and hugged him gently. Then he pulled away slightly and walked towards his room, leaving Klein stunned in place.
When she turned around, she glanced at the door of the captain's cabin and found that there seemed to be countless green leaves and vines in the cracks of the door, filling the entire room without exposing any trace.
"Admiral of Stars" Cattleya was probably seriously injured when he drove "Future" to escape... Angel looked away clearly, opened the door and returned to his suite.
After a while, she opened the door again and walked towards the restaurant holding her growling stomach - she had forgotten to eat dinner.
Fortunately, "Sedative Disease" was used to quickly cure the Sailors. In addition to some people who were still busy operating the ship on the deck, the chef in the restaurant was also at his post. She brought a cold waffle, some slices of bacon and fried fish, and found a seat by the window.
In addition to some sickly "Bloodless" Heath, there were also several Beyonder Sailor who had previously shown some tendency to lose control. They all nodded in greeting when they saw Angel. Although their eyes were still aggressive, they were no longer unscrupulous, but instead showed a hint of respect.
Strength is Above the Five Seas's passport... Angel concluded, grabbed a piece of muffin, smeared butter on it and stuffed it into his mouth, looking out the window, looking at the dark sky and the surging sea, as well as the heavy rain that was not far away from the safe channel.
Suddenly, a flash of lightning flashed in the rain, like thunder connecting heaven and earth. As the light dissipated, phosphorescent lights lit up, forming a shape that was narrow at the bottom and wide at the top, with several protrusions.
This ray of light traveled through the heavy rain at an extremely fast speed, approaching "Future" in the blink of an eye, causing the busy Sailors on the deck below to exclaim.
"Death Announcer" just left, what's coming again?
The waffle in Angel's hand had fallen back onto the plate. She stared at the phosphorescent light with her mouth open. Because she had Dark Vision, her sight was not blocked by the darkness outside the window, so she could clearly see the dark hull, deck, mast and sail not far away.
The ship was nearly a hundred meters long, with artillery and ammunition boxes neatly arranged on the deck, but no Sailor could be seen. The Three-Masted Sailing Ship split the waves in front of it in an extremely unscientific way, as if gliding on the sea. In a few seconds, it passed by the "Future", leaving behind a proud back, and quickly disappeared into the storm.
As he passed by, Angel seemed to see a petite figure of Black-haired Barefoot appearing among the ammunition boxes lined up on the deck. The pair of golden eyes scanned "Future" indifferently from beginning to end, and stayed for a moment at the window where Angel was.
That's Anne, and her Ghost Ship "Queen Anne's Revenge".
As it passed by, the various runes engraved on the deck and sides of the "Future" lit up one after another, as regularly as an army reporting their numbers one after another. However, the reaction was not as strong as when it was avoiding "Death Announcer" before. Instead, it seemed to be a passive response.
Angel in the restaurant also felt that all the passive positive and negative effects of Mystical Item everywhere on his body had almost completely disappeared, as if they were out of his control.
Is that Beyonder Ability from Anne? Some kind of mandatory "observance of the rules"?
Angel stuck his head out and followed the traces of Ghost Ship with his eyes, but there was a doubt in his heart.
"Death Announcer", who had fled from the east side of the Sonia Sea in embarrassment before, with scars all over his body, was he beaten up by "Queen Anne's Revenge"?
After everyone almost lost control, "Admiral of Stars" was injured and escaped the attack of "Death Announcer", and then encountered the mysterious Ghost Ship at night, "Future" finally encountered no other accidents. After a night of detours, it sailed out of the safe channel and came to a calm sea.
At dawn, "Future" returned to a normal state that only required a few Sailor to control it. Angel guessed that "Admiral of Stars" had returned to normal after one night.
Sure enough, in the busy restaurant during breakfast, she saw Cattleya, whose face had returned to ruddy color and whose purple eyes were deep behind thick-rimmed glasses. The latter stood at the table where Angel and Klein were dining together and said calmly:
"We are almost reaching the sea area."
Arriving so soon? I thought it would take another two or three days... Angel swallowed the toast in his mouth with some surprise, and was about to ask, but then he remembered that the ship flew at a very fast speed for a long time last night, which might have saved most of the voyage time.
With such a convenient "flying", why didn't she just use it? Perhaps because it would damage her strength, and there were two "danger factors" on the ship, Klein and I, she would rather spend a few more days in Storm and the huge waves. Until "King of Immortality" appeared as a greater threat, she had no choice but to activate the ability of "Future"...
Angel nodded silently, changed his words and asked:
"How long will it take? Do we need to prepare in advance?"
She still remembered hearing Klein talk about the dangers of this sea area more than once, so she wanted to make the best response.
"No need, and besides, I'm afraid it's too late."
Cattleya Hold the frame on the bridge of your nose with one hand and lift it lightly with the other hand, and stars appear around you.
What?
Angel As soon as an ominous premonition flashed through her mind, she felt the ground beneath her feet undulate violently, and then she flew into the air.
No, it's not that she's flying up, but "Future" is falling!
Glancing out the window, Angel quickly confirmed the current situation.
A huge gap suddenly appeared in the originally calm sea, like butter cut by a hot knife. The rushing water poured down into the bottomless abyss. Naturally, this lone boat in the sea could not avoid it. The entire ship fell from the sea like it rushed out of a waterfall.
The feeling of weightlessness quickly appeared on everyone and every object in the restaurant. Except for Cattleya, who was protected by the starlight and seemed unaffected, everyone was dancing with their feet in the air, either hitting the ceiling or scratching in vain among the toast, butter and salted fish. The scene was extremely chaotic for a while.
Swish, swish.
Silk threads that were almost invisible to the naked eye appeared around Angel. Most of them were wrapped around herself and Klein, who regained her balance with two simple movements, firmly fixing the two in the middle of the restaurant. The remaining threads stretched out to the other helpless Sailor, hoisting them up and hanging them on the ceiling or bulkhead, like cocoons.
But this treatment did not eliminate the danger. The "Future" was still facing downwards, falling into the deep and dark gap. Just when it was about to be swallowed by the darkness, a thick stream of water surged out from bottom to top, supported the ship, and brought it back to the sea level, throwing it towards the other end of the "Chasm".
Bang——
After a deep muffled sound, "Future" landed steadily on the sea. After Angel felt that the hull stopped shaking, he put away the silk thread and put the Sailors down.
The hazy morning sun in the sea fog outside the window has become hot and bright without knowing it, and the subtle sounds from the waves that hit the ship from time to time have disappeared. Only the Sailors are left breathing lightly or heavily in the restaurant.
"Arrived at your destination?"
Angel murmured, looking at Cattleya beside her. The latter had dispersed the starlight that protected her body, and her face was calm, as if the chaos just now was expected by her.
"Reaching the most dangerous sea in the world is just the beginning."
she replied softly.
"More dangerous than Berserk Sea?"
Klein suddenly asked in reply, his expression still maintaining the indifference of "Mad Adventurer", but Angel noticed that his eyes were quietly looking towards the toast on the ground that was mixed with cream and thick soup, and someone didn't know who had stepped on it - it was breakfast that he had not had time to swallow.
"I haven't come here many times, and it was a long time ago, but I can confirm that this place is much more dangerous than Berserk Sea."
After answering in a solemn tone, Cattleya ordered the chef to make breakfast again, and then took small steps to avoid the breakfast spilled on the floor and walked out of the restaurant.
I'm afraid that the fall just now was not entirely within her plan... Angel chuckled, and before other Sailor could react, he helped Klein get a newly baked breakfast.
