() If you don't do anything, you can't change anything, and of course, there are some things that you can't change even if you do, and it depends on the judgment of the person concerned.

Obviously, the passengers on the ship judged that for the latter, except for the cries of women and children, there was a dead silence on the deck, and perhaps some people had not given up, but they did not know how to resist in the face of such an unknown thing.

............

Just then, an old voice broke the dead silence.

"All crews are in position, the left is full of rudders, the course is 275, and the power plant is two into two!"

This sound is like a candle lit in the night snow, allowing people who have fallen into the cold and darkness to see a ray of light.

It turned out that the captain had not given up yet.

Hearing the captain's order in despair, the passengers' gloomy eyes immediately showed a look, this hope made them give up rational thinking, and they didn't even know what the power plant two into two meant, even if it was just a slender straw that would break at the slightest pull, they were willing to hold on tightly.

"Captain, take us out of here, please!"

"You are an expert in the sea, we believe you will be able to do it, rush!"

"Please, I'm willing to give you all the money I have."

"I am the chairman of the Taigu Chamber of Commerce, and I am willing to transfer half of the assets to you when the ship goes ashore, no, it is two-thirds."

Everyone immediately came to hope, and sprayed all kinds of poisonous milk on the old captain's body.

But for some reason, although the old captain's order was given, most of the nearby crew members did not move, and a few of them just took a step, and then saw that the others did not move, so they stopped.

.............

Xia Feng understood that the old captain's order was not the last hope, but the last struggle before death, the passengers didn't know what was going on, but the crew knew very well, this was the sea, like an unfortunate lamb overboard, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't escape the blood of a crocodile.

In the face of everyone's hopeful gaze, the old captain was stunned, but he didn't expect that just without thinking about it, a sentence blurted out made everyone have such high hopes, but he knew that this hope would soon be drowned out by despair.

He knew that it was impossible for the ship to dock, and what he really wanted to express in that sentence was just that I didn't want to die, but everyone understood it "wrongly", perhaps because of the guilt in his heart, the old captain lowered his head.

"I ...... I can't guarantee that I'll get out of this area, all I can say is ..... I don't know what to say, there is very little hope..... I. ”

"Come on, captain, don't talk about going and start the boat, we believe you!"

"I ......."

The ship is like a patient with a poison in his body, and the passengers are the patient's family, and the captain and crew are doctors, who blindly believe in the captain and think that the patient can be brought back to life, but the doctor knows that death has strangled the throat and it is impossible to survive unless a miracle happens.

In the face of everyone's cheering shouts, the complex emotions intertwined in his heart made the captain look ten years old in an instant, and tears of guilt dripped down his eyes.

"Sorry I lied to ......"

At that moment, a hand rested lightly on the captain's shoulder.

Xia Feng looked at the captain expressionlessly.

"Enough, ordinary people have to look like ordinary people, and then leave it to me."

.............

In just a moment, the clouds above became darker, and the air seemed to smell of blood, and it was clear that the thing called the scourge was very close to them.

Xia Feng turned around and said quickly to the ace brother beside him.

"Brother ace, help me drop everything that can float on the boat, planks, tables, lifeboats, whatever, please."

"Xia Feng, what are you going to do?"

"Trust me!"

Seeing Xia Feng's eyes, Big Brother Ace didn't ask any more, but nodded without hesitation.

Then, Xia Feng walked up to the Platts brothers and grabbed Puru's shoulder.

"Lao Pu, do you have any source stones on you!"

Puru, who was already planning to write a suicide note, looked at Xia Feng with a puzzled expression.

"Source Stone?"

"That's right, S-grade source stones, aren't you two privately processing source stones, this is smuggling, don't tell me that you don't bring anything so valuable when you escape."

Puda next to him immediately spoke up.

"Brother Feng, what do you want the source stone to do at this time, even if we give it to you, you can't sell it."

"I'm not trying to sell."

"Then you are ......"

Xia Feng grabbed him by the collar, his voice full of anxiety.

"Don't talk nonsense, quickly give me the source stones you brought with you, and if you want to live, do as I say!"

Puda was half a head taller than Xia Feng, but at this moment he found that Xia Feng actually lifted his whole person up, and the hand that grabbed him was like an iron tong that could not be shaken.

"I ......."

"Puda, go get us the box for him."

"Oh.... Oh. ”

Hearing his brother's words, Puda turned and ran into the cabin.

Pru brought her face to Xia Feng's ear.

"Brother Xia Feng, in fact, I have long seen that you have always covered your neck with that scarf, if my guess is correct, you should be infected."

"That's right."

Prue's eyes were a little complicated.

"Okay, but even if you are an infected person who can unleash a powerful Source Stone skill, how can you ....... alone on this kind of sea?"

The voice of the summer breeze interrupted Pru's words.

"Lao Pu, I am an infected person, but not just an infected person, and at the same time, I am not alone."

With that, Xia Feng left the bewildered Puru and walked to the inside of the deck.

.............

Walking through the crowd, Xia Feng walked in front of the little fire dragon who was accompanying the turtle.

Bending down, Xia Feng gently put his hands on Ifrit's shoulders and took a deep breath.

"Ifrit, I'm going to tell you something now."

Ifrit looked at Xia Feng expressionlessly.

"Say it."

"Well, Ifrit, what I want to say is that in the past, my Xia Feng could save you, whether it was Mandel City where natural disasters struck, or Base 4 surrounded by flames, I could go in and rescue you out of my own hands, because I was willing."

"Oh, thank you then."

Xia Feng's eyes when he looked at Ifrit did not change, and it was still deep and incomprehensible.

"Ifrit, before leaving, Hemer handed you over to me, I promised her to bring you to Victoria safely, but now we may have encountered the greatest difficulty in our lives, this time I also want to save you, save Turtle and Big Brother Ace, but this time, I'm afraid I can't do it."

As if sensing the meaning contained in Xia Feng's tone, Ifrit put away her frivolous attitude for the first time.

"You..... Need me help you? ”

Xia Feng did not answer Ifrit's question head-on, but continued.

"Evlit, maybe in your eyes, this world is very simple, but the real appearance of this world is so cruel that it is suffocating, Ifrit, you need to grow, in the Rhine life Hermer can protect you, I can protect you after leaving, but this world will not give you the opportunity to be protected every time, so, you are not helping me, but helping yourself, and at the same time, you are also protecting the people you want to protect."

There were some things he had to make Ifrit understand.

If things were under his control, he could guide and demand Ivlit's actions indifferently, but at this point, he had to let Ivrite make his own choice and understand the meaning of that choice.

Because death cannot be repeated.
