Alien Knights

Chapter 235 Eye of the Storm

The turquoise sea water turned black, and the calm waves turned into turbulent waves in a blink of an eye.

The strong wind and heavy rain, like countless whips, slammed on the hull of the Black Pearl.

Aisha stood at the stern, holding on to the rudder, and yelled something to the crew. The sound of wind and waves drowned out her voice, and the sailors could only hear a few broken words-"mast", "side" and "counterweight".

The experienced crew members immediately guessed the captain's intentions. They called out to their companions loudly, stood on the right side of the ship, grabbed the edge of the ship, and adjusted the counterweight, so that the black pearl's hull regained its balance.

Todd hurriedly walked down the deck, and just stepped on the first step, he fell heavily in a wave of bumps.

Struggling to get up from the cabin floor, Todd touched his forehead, and the palm touched a piece of warm blood, but fortunately the wound has slowly healed under the influence of "regeneration".

Stumbling up, he took a deep breath and walked towards the cabin while leaning on the wooden wall.

Opening the cabin door, the room was already in chaos, and Rachel was lying on the floor, rummaging for something in a hurry.

The wobbly Todd rushed forward and grabbed her hand, shouting, "Follow me!"

On the woman's face, there was a rare panic and helplessness: "Our luggage! And the map that the contact person gave me!"

"Never mind that!" Todd tugged Rachel toward the door.

Walking on the aisle, the two saw the sailors throwing the supplies and goods in the cargo hold into the sea through the window, while scooping out the backwater seawater.

Returning to the deck again, Todd heard Aisha shouting.

"Prepare for impact!"

Following everyone's line of sight to the bow of the ship, Todd and Rachel were so shocked by the scene before them that they forgot to breathe.

A fifteen-meter-high black wave covered the sun and cut off the sky, like an ancient mountain, heading straight for the tiny black pearl.

Feeling the hull under the body, as if climbing a mountain, driving upwards at a 30-degree angle. After reacting, Todd pulled Rachel to the stern and hugged the wooden fence tightly.

The hull climbs up along with the slope of the seawater, the slope is getting bigger and bigger, 45 degrees, 60 degrees, 70 degrees, and finally the hull climbs almost vertically to the top of the wave slope.

Aisha wiped the salt water on her face, and her eyes were full of enthusiasm for the sea and adventure: "Come on! Let the wind blow harder! Let the rain fall harder! This is the life I love!"

The black pearl overturned the first wave, fell from the top of the wave, and plummeted to the sea.

Everything on the boat entered a state of weightlessness, the barrels, ropes and even the body slowly floated into the air.

Immediately afterwards, there was a huge shock that spread throughout the hull, and it felt like a roller coaster descending from top to bottom.

Just when Todd thought he could breathe a sigh of relief, a bigger wave swept in.

Aisha controlled the rudder, and under the amazed gaze of the people, she laughed and shouted loudly, and once again drove the black pearl into the waves.

In this way, I don't know how long it took in the up and down suffering journey, and the wind and waves gradually became smaller.

Todd sat in the stern of the boat with Rachel in his arms, drenched in the icy sea water, looking at the sky tremblingly.

The tumbling dark clouds gradually receded, and a clear sky appeared overhead again.

"The storm is over?!"

Todd stood up, laughing at the joy of being alive after the disaster.

Unfortunately, this joy did not last too long.

"We are now in the very center of the storm, which is commonly known as the 'Eye of the Storm'." Aisha asked her men to make emergency preparations for the Black Pearl, and pointed her finger at the bow.

Todd followed his hand and looked around. Dark clouds and heavy rain filled the four directions of the southeast, northwest, and only the place where the hull was located was quiet.

Ayisha twisted the sea water on her clothes, shook her hair, and said in a deep voice: "We will have to find a way to sail out of the eye of the storm in a while, this journey will be more dangerous than just now..."

Before the words were finished, a sailor yelled in panic: "Under the boat! What are those black things under the boat!"

Everyone ran to the side of the ship, looked down, and found something strange about the sea water.

The color of the sea water within a radius of 50 meters from the Black Pearl is somewhat different from other places. The perimeter of the hull is black, and a little further away is blue.

"Seaweed? School of fish?" Ayisha supported the side of the boat with both hands, looked at the sea, frowned and said, "The sea water is too dark, it's like a bottomless pit."

While everyone was still discussing, what happened next completely broke everyone's psychological defense.

one eye.

A huge eye opened, and it appeared in the "Black Water", which was about the same size as the entire hull of the Black Pearl!

Screams, crying, and cursing kept ringing on the deck, and some sailors who were less timid fainted directly.

Aisha's legs went limp, and she slumped on the ground, muttering something to herself.

A taboo name gradually spread among the people—"Evil Eye Demon King Balor".

Todd looked at the huge eyeball under the hull, heard the name repeatedly mentioned by the sailors in his ears, and asked Rachel: "What the hell is Balor?!"

Rachel's face lost all color, and her teeth were chattering: "Evil Eye Demon King Balor is the king of the deep sea giant family Fermor in the myth of the northern barbarians. It is rumored that he can use the magic eye to kill any living thing!"

"This is unreasonable! Why did you meet a mythical god here?!" Todd shook his head and asked.

The magic eye seemed to sense the movement on the water, turned its eyeballs, and cast its sights on the Black Pearl.

"My God! It's looking at us!"

"We're all going to die!"

Aisha got up from the ground and ordered to her subordinates: "Raise the sails! Go forward at full speed! Get out of this water as soon as possible!"

It was already too late when the order was given, several huge tentacles protruded from the bottom of the sea, tightly entwining the Black Pearl. The hull of the ship, which had been attacked by the storm, cracked the boards in front of the huge force of the tentacles, and let out a "sorrow" before dying.

"Damn it! Cut off these disgusting things!" Aisha drew out her short sword and stabbed at the tentacle closest to her, but unexpectedly, this action completely annoyed the magic eye.

More tentacles protruded from the black water, they grabbed the anchor, and the crew was swept away, and the deck fell into chaos.

To make matters worse, the storm gradually invaded this sea area, and everything that was originally calm was once again occupied by strong winds, showers, huge waves and lightning.

The current situation is no longer the time to hide his strength. Todd uses the abilities of "Metal Skin", "Speed", "Strength Enhancement" and "Weakness", while Rachel uses his mind power to attack these giant tentacles together.

However, one tentacle was repelled, and another tentacle rose from the sea.

Some of the sailors on the ship had the idea of ​​abandoning the ship, hugged a piece of wood or a wooden barrel, jumped into the sea, and swam forward with all their strength, but they were caught by the tentacles under the sea surface and disappeared instantly.

Rachel looked at Todd with despair in her eyes.

Todd still didn't give up the hope of survival, he observed everything around him that might become a living thing. When he found that the hurricane was blowing on the open sails, and the whole ship was gradually tilted, his eyes lit up, and he pulled Rachel and ran to the bottom of the mast.

He grabbed the mast cables that were swinging around in the wind and rain, found two, and tied them to Rachel's waist and his own. Then, he took a few steps back and slammed into the mast heavily.

The mast, which was already crumbling, had some cracks in the base under the impact of the supernatural power, and the mast was slightly tilted.

Ayesha, who saw Todd's plan, jumped off the steering wheel, avoided the attacking tentacles, grabbed a cable, and tied it to her body.

After estimating the distance and strength, Todd took a few steps back and hit the mast again.

The base of the mast broke with the sound, and the whole mast was separated from the hull.

Todd roared, the ability of "strength enhancement" was activated to the maximum, he grabbed the falling mast with both arms, and lifted it up.

A hurricane blew on the sail, like flying a kite, and the mast and the three of them were blown into the air.

Glancing at the Black Pearl under his feet, which was gradually being dragged into the bottom of the sea by the tentacles, Todd closed his eyes, and his body drifted further and further away in the storm.
