"Oh? What's the point of you telling me this, we don't know each other, but I know that people do things for a purpose, what is your purpose? Li Yi looked at the old man vigilantly, and what the other party followed his words was often not from his heart.

"You're right, but some people do things that they don't even know for themselves, just a kind of guidance from the subconscious, and you can think that I, the old man, like to sigh something! However, I also have some things to tell you, I was too lazy to come out and tell you, but now with the help of this storm, I have the urge to come out and turn around, so I'll tell you by the way! Fran's dazed old eyes flashed a twinkle, and he took a cigarette from his bosom and shook it twice before he struck the match and lit it.

"What is it?" Li Yi was a little impatient, there was an old guy sitting next to him who couldn't see through, he really didn't like it, he was looking at the cold rain alone, thinking about something, but he was stirred up by this old guy, and the soup in his hand was almost cold, he took it up and drank it all, "To be honest, I don't welcome you very much, if you have something to say, hurry up and finish." ”

"I don't know what tricks this old man has, but listen to him, see what he has to say!" Li Yi glanced at Fran, who seemed to have some sleepiness in the corner of his eyes, the good mood just now dissipated, didn't this entangled old guy just want to find out his details, just ask no, make tricks, when I am a fool?

"I want to intervene in the matter between you and Blas, it's not good for young people to fight to death like this. After all, he had an accident aboard the White Rose. The responsibility goes to Michelle, which I don't want to see, and I've worked with Michelle for many years. A strong bond of interests has been formed, and anyone who wants to break this bond will be targeted by me, maybe you are young and ignorant, and you want to do what you want with a little strength, and you want to kill people who don't like it, young people should not be too arrogant, and the truth that steel is easy to break is what I want to teach you. Blas is the heir to the high line of the Buesventura family, a family you can't afford to mess with, plus. Take your mask off, I don't like guys with their heads and tails hidden. Fran spoke in a heart-to-heart tone, as if an old man was teaching a lesson.

"Haha, what a joke." Li Yi couldn't help laughing. He glanced at the old man and said, "Do you think this is enough to humiliate me and make me angry, so that I can see my details?" I don't know if you're old and stupid or really stupid, let's be honest, how much good Blas has given you, I can give you double, don't doubt my financial strength. Other than that. Compared to the forces behind me, the Buesventura family is a bed bug. It's easy to be crushed to death. ”

He didn't talk nonsense, whether it was the Sky Academy or the Kent family, he was familiar with some of these high-level personnel.

"Sure enough, it's a young man with a city, I didn't even anger you when I said this, it's not easy to do this, and I'll tell you that I didn't take any benefit from Blas. There will be a date later! Fran nodded, a hint of appreciation in his eyes, and stood up and went back to his room, where the rain fell on him, but instead of wetting his clothes, it flowed down an invisible barrier.

Li Yi frowned and analyzed what Fran said, "If he is on Blas's side - I don't see it, the move that provoked me just now was just to test my city, it seems that he is loyal to Michelle, I don't know what the purpose is, but in order to ensure Michelle's interests, he will definitely not let me kill Blas, then Blas will not stop me from making some moves against me, hmph, it seems that he is still against me in disguise, and he must be eliminated first." ”

The rainstorm gradually showed its power, the rain feet jumped on the deck, the successive rain curtains pressed down on the layer, the strong wind pulled the umbrella around, and Li Yi had to curl up in his chair to prevent the water from pouring into his body. The sea in the distance was pitch black, and occasionally bright blue lightning struck into the sea, and there was a burst of thunder, like a giant serpent in the clouds sticking its blue tongue into the sea.

A gust of wind blew, Li Yi choked, coughed a few times, he felt that the wind was more violent, and the raindrops became more and more rapid, forming a one-foot-thick puddle on the deck, and the White Rose swayed violently in the wind and rain, just like people shaking persimmon trees in autumn to let ripe persimmons fall.

"The wind and waves were too strong, and I couldn't breathe when I was choking on the rain, and I was very uncomfortable." Li Yi wiped the water droplets from his face, and prepared to return to his cabin, he had to eat those pickled meats and fish for dinner, the fruits were rationed, fortunately, some juice and food were stored in the space ring, the space in the ring was completely isolated from this world, even the time was eternal, and the hot food was put in, and it would be the same temperature when it was taken out in a few days.

Felder is not afraid of rain, he chews the red caviar in his mouth, it is very comfortable, all day except sleep is to eat, he said to wait for the spiritual power to accumulate to a certain degree before exercising, compressed into a refined structural organization.

Just as Li Yi was about to step into the cabin, a large group of unknown objects broke into his perception, and these densely packed creatures released a faint spiritual power, covering the sea for several miles, making a gurgling sound.

"It's so dense, it's shaped like a sea snake but it's even shorter and thicker, and it's a sea worm in a rainstorm!" Li Yi took a deep breath and rang the alarm bell! This time instead of reminding his companions to hunt, he ran away.

"What's going on?" Everyone ran to the deck, braving the pouring rain, Michelle asked.

"Starboard position, five hundred meters, a swarm of sea worms! Flee quickly, or the ship will be gone! Li Yi hurriedly explained.

Sea worms are a strange creature in the sea, although they are not spirits, but they have spiritual power, their bodies are shaped like earthworms, extremely hard, in the sea millions of clusters, swimming through the place where there is no grass, even the coral reefs are chewed and swallowed by them, what is even more terrifying is that the body surface of adult sea worms is strong enough to resist gold-level spiritual magic! This allowed them to run rampant in the sea, a nightmare for all ships and creatures, and once a team of Gold Explorers was devoured alive by a sea worm, and the rest survived.

Michelle took the binoculars from Li Yi's hand, and by the light of lightning, he vaguely saw a large area of gray-brown worms rolling in the sea water behind him, swimming towards this side. It's blazing fast!

"Oh no, it's really sea worms, they lock on to their targets by smell recognition. If you don't pull them away for a kilometer, they'll all follow the smell! She exclaimed, "Oh my God, that's terrible." ”

The White Rose immediately switched to the spiritual power drive mode, separated the waves, and advanced against the rain, the spiritual power drive consumed spirit crystals, and the money was evenly distributed to everyone's heads. Li Yi didn't panic either. Anyway, the White Rose is not his property, and it should be the captain who is in a hurry, and he will escape in a pontoon boat if the ship is destroyed. Scatter beasts and birds.

"In the past few days of sailing, except for the luck of encountering a few spirits in the sea, some bits and pieces of income are not enough for the spirit crystals consumed by the White Rose's spiritual power. I really don't know what Michelle and his gang made a fortune on. If I can't get any more benefits, I'll just kill Blas and leave, and I'm very suspicious that following them to the Northern Ice Fields will catch a good Ice Spirit and sell it for a good price. Li Yi stayed in the cabin, and he had no sense of crisis about the approaching sea worms. On the contrary, he doubted whether the offshore team could find big benefits, and he did not understand. The vast expanse of the sea is endless, but where is the wealth? Is it buried deep at the bottom of the sea?

The ship was in a mess, and Michel calculated a very bad news, the sea worms were much faster than them, so that they could only drain the water from the bilge, so that the draft of the ship could be reduced, and the load would be lighter, and it would take several powerful spirits to forcibly drain the water, and Felder was requisitioned, although he was not very happy, but he could only obey the captain's orders.

Li Yi frowned and saw that on the sea behind him, countless sea worms were rushing towards this side, each as thick as a child's arm, covered in thick gray-brown iron armor, the body of the link suit writhed forward, their turbine-shaped steel teeth kept chewing, as if they wanted to devour everything, this strange creature is not a big appetite, but excretes too quickly, and what it just eats is quickly sent out of the body, so most of the time it is in a state of hunger, and it has to put something into its stomach to be satisfied.

"This group of gluttonous eaters wants to eat the captain's boat, how can God create such a worm, it is better to be hungry all their lives, it is better to die." Li Yi looked at the insects that were getting closer and closer, and a wave of disgust surged in his heart.

The explorers began to drive away the sea worms that were close to the White Rose, and all kinds of spiritual techniques entered the swarm, but they could only stop it for a while, and the insects crowded up even more violently, trying to eat the ship and everything on board.

Li Yi held a firearm in his hand and fired a few shots, but it had no effect, Felder saw such a strange creature, and he was also interested, he threw a rope into the sea, and when he dragged it up, the rope was densely bitten with a large number of insects.

"I'll taste it, see what you see!" Noticing the surprised eyes of the explorers, Felder cursed and muttered a few words, dragged down a sea worm and stuffed it into his mouth, and after a crisp sound, he spat out a lot of hard shells and residues, "It's really unpalatable, it's all shells, no meat at all." ”

Putting aside Felder's disgusting behavior of swallowing the sea worm for the time being, the explorers couldn't stop the sea worm from approaching with all their might, seeing this large group of strange insects gradually approaching the stern, and even began to gnaw on the tail rudder, making a tooth-aching clicking sound, the metal tail rudder was not eaten up in an instant!

"It's not good, so that the ship can't turn, and after a while, even the bottom of the ship will be gnawed out of a hole, and at that time we can only abandon the ship and escape, and sail at sea for a week, without any benefit, it will be over, and we will disperse." Li Yi frowned, and while he speculated, he searched for Blas's figure.

Blas squatted on the mast with an indifferent face at this time, and sat next to the Cassikin Crow, anyway, the sea worm can't fly, he is also looking at Li Yi, and after the ship is destroyed, Li Yi will definitely escape by pontoon, as long as he attacks him from a high altitude on the Cassikin Crow and sinks his pontoon, he will drown alive and become a dry bone on the bottom of the sea, as soon as he thinks of the insult to himself that day, Blas is angry and wants to go crazy, like a virgin who has been violated.

"Hmph, idiot, you're still thinking about sinking my pontoon from the sky, that's all you need!" Li Yi sneered secretly, when it comes to intrigue and calculating each other, he is very good at it, what the other party thinks in his heart, he can guess seven seven eight eight at a glance.

The man in the hat was in a hurry, he kept walking back and forth, and finally stopped and said to Michelle: "Captain, use high-heat fuel!" ”

"No, fuel must be used when breaking the ice, otherwise our ship will not be able to break through the blockade of ice and snow even if it sails to the northern ice field, and can only return with a feather. Alas, how did you meet the Shanghai worms, and disrupted all the plans! Michelle clenched his fists in a hurry and slammed them on the console.

"Captain, if you don't use fuel, the White Rose will be ruined, and those two guys will definitely fight," the lazy old man Fran stood up at this time, he glanced at Li Yi and Blas standing on the mast out of the corner of his eye, "And the value of the White Rose itself is much higher than the high-quality ice spirits on the ice field, besides, we can rob other fleets on the ice field and get their fuel use." ”

This suggestion made Michelle hesitate for a moment, but finally agreed, with the newly recruited guys who were like wolves and tigers on the ship, it was still easy to grab a little fuel, let's get through the current difficulties first, at least things haven't reached the worst level.

Blas also found that Li Yi was observing him, a trace of fierceness flashed in his eyes, Cassikin Wu felt his master's will, turned the bird's head around, stared at Li Yi with blood-red eyes, the feathers on his body stood upright, and his body grew larger.

The two of them smelled of gunpowder and didn't care about the worms in the sea at all. At this time, Michelle came out of the captain's room, wearing a women's suit and pencil skirt, and the crisp sound of high heels stepping on the deck, even though the rain was as dense as fried beans, this sound still reached everyone's ears through the layers of rain curtains.

The man in the hat was holding an oil drum in his hand, which looked very heavy, and several sailors helped to pour black fuel oil into the sea, which was not ordinary fuel, but a kind of shellfish in the deep sea after the death of the carrion boiled, once stained, it was like maggots attached to the bones, it was difficult to erase, they can still burn in the sea, and at the same time release high heat, burning everything. Sea worms, though their shells are hard, cannot withstand such fire.

The man in the hat threw the cigarette in his mouth into the sea, and the flames rose more than a foot high, and a crackling and popping sound sounded on the sea, and a burnt smell came, "To hell with it! He said so.

"Hmm, it's solved, it's so easy, why didn't you take out these grease earlier?" Li Yi held his chin, looked at the chaotic swarm of insects on the sea, and thought, "It seems that these oils are either expensive or have special uses, and then contact us with the northern ice field, then they must use fuel to melt the ice and break the ice." Now that there is none, I have to go and grab my peers, but the captain has a good idea. He shook his head, guessing what the fuel was for, and now wasting another trick, not knowing what to do the next time he encountered a worm.

The White Rose was finally out of danger, however, the storm and the lack of rudder control direction, the ship was speeding on the sea, and it completely deviated from the course, and came to a strange sea, in the captain's room, Michelle's face was solemn, she looked at the chart, this unknown area because it is at the intersection of ocean currents and monsoons, there are often storms accompanied by huge waves, and some other unknown dangers, in the vast sea, all kinds of disasters will weaken their strength little by little, and finally easily swallow them when these people are helpless.
