Chapter 472: Mutation (Asking for a monthly pass, asking for a subscription, asking for a recommendation)
When Barry heard this, he looked at the clouds in front of him with a telescope, and then at the waves, and said, "No, it shouldn't be a storm, and there are many such windy days at sea, so you think too much." ”
"Oh, that's good." Of course, this kind of thing is up to experts, and Barry said that there is no storm, so Solam naturally doesn't have to worry about it.
But anyway, as the wind grew stronger, the distance between Soram and the pirate ship never decreased. Now the wind is too strong, the waves are several meters high, and Solam is careful to see the liver jumping, Soram has never seen this before, anyway, in Solam's opinion, if it is not a storm, it is almost the same.
However, looking at the rest of the crew, they found that they all looked calm, and it seemed that this kind of wind and waves seemed normal to them, and it was not a big deal, so Soram was embarrassed to make a fuss.
With such a strong wind, even if there is a gas element, it is useless, because the speed of Solam's ship has reached the limit, and it is impossible to accelerate anymore, so the hull and mast will not be able to stand it.
Therefore, these two ships can only rely on the natural wind to chase one after the other towards the deep sea.
Originally, according to Solam's conjecture, such a strong wind should blow for half a day, but he didn't expect this gust of wind to really blow, and he was stunned for a whole day and a night.
For such a long time, Soram had no interest in continuing the pursuit, and in his opinion, it was obviously not cost-effective to waste so much time chasing these miscellaneous pieces.
In particular, Soram finally got a taste of the horrors of the ocean, and Soram was still laughing at the two guys Disio and Trism for getting seasick. As a result, along the way, the ship rose and fell in the waves, and Solam couldn't stand it anymore.
People who have never been on an ocean boat can't describe the feeling at all, the first second, you feel your body being lifted, but the next second you slam and fall to the bottom, that feeling is a bit similar to that of a roller coaster.
But the roller coaster has just gone, and it has passed quickly, but now, for a whole day and a night, it feels like torture.
This kind of torture is a little unbearable with Solam's physique, not to mention others, Lilith, who has always been alive and well, can only lie on the bed now, her face pale and motionless and dare not move.
Loris was even more frightened, and this Nizi could only hug Lilith now, and she was weak.
In the end, Soram had to discuss with Barry what to do.
Barry agrees not to pursue the pirate ship anymore, but there is nothing he can do about the weather.
In fact, the reason why Barry agreed not to pursue was not because of the weather, which was really nothing to the long-standing sailors who had been running on the sea all year round.
The sailors were like nobody, they should eat and drink, and they were not at all moved by the bumps.
The only reason why the Ballys agreed to sail back was that they had strayed too far from the course, and their ships had been chasing the pirate ship for a whole day and a night, and in the same wind conditions, they were now far, far away from their original course.
Chasing it any further down is a bit dangerous, there are so many dangers in the deep sea, there is no need to put yourself in danger for this pirate. And although others are a little regretful, they can only accept it.
The longer you live at sea, the more you know about the dangers of the ocean.
Solam's ships decided to return after a day and a night of pursuit.
But just as they were about to return, on a mysterious island, a mutation was taking place, and with this mutation, Solam and they were also in big trouble!
**********
"Great Elder! Great Elder! There's something wrong with the maelstrom! Matrohirlpool ...... "A tall and sturdy tyrannical lizard warrior very rudely opened the Great Elder's tent and rushed in, which was a very rude act in normal times.
You must know that the place he has broken into now is the tent of the most honorable Grand Elder of all the lizardmen! With the High Elder's exalted position among the lizardmen, such an act would incur the wrath of all the lizardmen, even if it was Kuga, the most famous samurai leader among the lizardmen, who would not be able to eat and walk around.
But the people in the tent didn't care about Kuga's rudeness, they just stared at the Great Elder in the center of the tent.
If this Great Elder was seen by others, he would never think that he was a lizardman, because he was so fat, his big belly covered his legs, and because he was so fat, his tail had degenerated decades ago, and it was completely useless for him to ask for that thing.
On the fat face, there is no sign of the ferocity and savagery of the lizardmen. There are only eyes squeezed into a line, and a huge mouth.
It all makes him look like a giant toad and not like a lizard.
Kuga broke in only to see that almost all the lizardmen elders had arrived, and the huge tent, which was originally empty and wide, seemed so cramped and cramped at this moment.
Kuga immediately knelt down in the doorway and apologized to all the lizardmen elders for his rude behavior. These elders are the treasures of the lizardmen, and they are the ones who tell all the lizardmen when to graze, when to hunt, and when to harvest the fields!
Even Kuga didn't dare to show the slightest disrespect to them.
But none of the elders turned their heads to look at him, and they all stared at the "toad" elder tightly. And Kuga didn't dare to make the slightest move without permission, he could only kneel quietly, he knew that in this situation, it was best not to disturb the Great Elder.
I don't know how long this quiet state has passed, but all the lizardmen don't dare to move, and even the sound of breathing has become very quiet, as if they are afraid of disturbing the Great Elder.
Finally, as if a century had passed, the Toad Great Elder finally opened his eyes with great difficulty, and the fat on his face made him look so laborious even if he opened his eyes.
"The maelstrom is starting to boil, the chaotic faith has made the maelstrom begin to collapse, and I don't see a trace of the future."
The voice of the Great Elder of the Toad was very thick, but it was like a mouthful of phlegm, indistinct, and I really couldn't hear what he was saying if I didn't pay attention to it, but fortunately, almost all the lizardmen were used to the voice of the Great Elder, so it didn't sound effortless.
After hearing the Great Elder say this, all the Lizardman Elders began to stir! After the lizardmen arrived in this land, their great elders were their beacons, their prophets, who could communicate the maelstrom, receive revelations, and then guide all the lizardmen on how to live.
Now they lizardmen can live so well because of the guidance of generations of great elders. Now that the Great Elder is telling them that he has no future in sight, how can they not panic?
What's more, the maelstrom is about to collapse! How could the maelstrom collapse? Although the mutation of the maelstrom is serious, it has not happened in history, so how could it suddenly collapse? This has never been the case before!
But it is impossible for the Great Elder to make a mistake, and he cannot lie, that is, the Maelstrom may really collapse!!
This is worse than the fact that the Great Elders can no longer guide them! Because in the hearts of all lizardmen, if the Great Elder is their leader, then the Maelstrom is the place where their hearts belong, and where their souls belong! Or even everything about them.
The lizardmen believe that they are able to live here because of the Maelstrom!
Now the maelstrom is going to collapse, which means that their world will also be destroyed!
In just a moment, the tent, which was originally quiet and abnormal, has now turned into a huge vegetable market, which is extremely noisy, everyone is expressing their opinions, and more people are simply venting their panic!
Finally, when this noise reached its peak, the Great Elder put an end to this chaos!
"Enough!" The deep and muffled voice overshadowed everyone's voices at once!
No one could ignore the majesty of the Great Elder, so everyone fell silent and looked at the Great Elder.
"Kuga! Where are you, my samurai leader? The Great Elder didn't go and explain anything to the elders, but called out to Kuga. Although Kuga was kneeling at the doorway not far in front of him, the Great Elder's eyes didn't seem to be very good, and he didn't see it.
Kuga obviously knew that the Great Elder could not see him, so he knelt down in front of the Great Elder, and then said in a loud voice, "Your most loyal spear, Kuga, is always at your command!" ”
"Kuga! Go prepare for the sacrificial ceremony! I'm going to connect to the maelstrom and make a final effort! ”
"Yes, your will is my mission." Kuga slammed his head on the carpet of the tent and said respectfully. Then he kept this posture and asked, "Excuse me, .......what is the main sacrifice this time?"
"It's me!"
The Great Elder slowly said an answer that no one could have imagined!
"What ?!!!"
"No! Great Elder, you are so hasty! ”
"That's right! Lizardfolk can't be sacrificed! What's more, you? ”
"No! Absolutely not! ”
"We will mobilize all the warriors to find the most powerful sacrifice, please take back what you just said!"
"Yes, we are not afraid of sacrifice! Our warriors will fight for you! ”
......
"Silence!" In the face of all the pleas and refusals, the Great Elder just said "Silence" softly, and everyone in the entire tent found that their voices had disappeared, and everyone could only open their mouths and not make a sound.
I saw that the Great Elder opened his eyes to the maximum and looked at everyone. His eyes flashed as silver as a maelstrom! There seemed to be a flash of thunder inside, and the vision inside let everyone know that the Great Elder was angry.
"For the sake of the continuation of the race, there is nothing we cannot sacrifice, I must see our future, for this, it is totally worth sacrificing me, the duty of the Great Elder is for the lizardmen! It's my responsibility! ”
After saying this sternly, the Great Elder seemed to be tired, and he slowly closed his eyes.
"Kuga, go and do it."
Kuga looked at the Great Elder with a tired face, and opened his mouth to say something, but he found that something was blocking his throat, and he knew that the Great Elder had already made up his mind, and it was no longer possible to change it.
"I ...... It's ......" and Kuga's eyelids drooped and silently retreated.
