Chapter 211 -200: Entering the Sea of Death
(Once again, thanks to the attentive book friend for pointing out that when Da Fei leveled up to 31, he got a skill point, so there’s still 1 skill point left. Writing a data-stream book is indeed very difficult -_-#)
The night sea, with stars filling the sky, saw the fleet moving ahead at full speed under the lively leadership of the Radiant Wings. Meanwhile, Da Fei began implementing a new idea to train Alicia.
–System Prompt: You activated the Phantom March Skill.
–System Prompt: Your Vice Hero Alicia has cast Advanced Magic “Illusion Army.”
–System Prompt: You failed to combine the “Mysterious Stealth Navigation” skill!
Failed again! Indeed, advanced magic doesn’t work! Can’t even obtain skill information.
Alicia impatiently said, “Captain, don’t make pointless attempts anymore!”
Damn! How dare you say that, aren’t you the one who isn’t even a master yet? Can’t handle the medium ship, let alone a big one. Da Fei sighed, “See? Grandma was right!”
Alicia huffed, “Leave me alone! I need some peace!” She slammed the door shut in a huff.
Damn! Her temper is huge, but she’s genuinely throwing a fit, isn’t she? Fine, I won’t mess with your pride anymore. You should reflect a bit. After all, it’s still a lack of skills, need a few battles to get her leveled up. But how to battle in the vast ocean? Pirates? Sea monsters? Damn, better none of them appear.
Da Fei quietly manned the ship again; the night passed uneventfully.
With the sunrise in the east, the beginning of a new day was heralded with radiant light. It was the third day at sea.
This voyage, the NPC officer said, would last a month, equaling three days in reality, counting a regular Master-level Navigation Skill navigating a regular cargo ship. The Radiant Wings exploration ship, though laden with heavy armor affecting speed, was definitely twice as fast as a regular cargo ship.
Accounting for the slow medium ship led by myself dragging a bit, yet with Catherine’s Master-level Navigation Skill granting a 20% speed boost, combined with the Master-level Pirate’s additional 25% edge, indeed, our fleet’s three-day journey might just equate to five or six days under normal circumstances.
The remaining journey was still long. Probably another day and a half in real-time? No point in talking much about it, just endure the overnight.
At this time Alicia seemed to have returned to her sunny disposition, fishing, reading, and sunbathing, and now she was napping.
Da Fei really missed the days when Catherine was around, would I have had to stay up all night if she were here? Just then, the flag bearer came to report, “Captain, the flagship has sent a message, our fleet is about to enter the Frostwind Strait, please prepare for alertness.”
Oh! Something was finally about to happen? Da Fei, who had been restless for days, immediately spread out the map to check.
So-called straits generally referred to sea areas between two land masses. This Frostwind Strait was a relatively spacious passage through a cluster of reefs. Once this strait was crossed, it’d officially enter the North Sea. Typically, winds and waves within the strait were smaller than in the open sea, causing the passing ship speed to naturally decline, making straits a good ambush point for pirate sail and paddle ship raids on large merchant convoys. Yet, no game data indicated any pirate activities here, since this wasn’t a major trading route nor had any adequately large islands for pirate hideouts. Would there be pirates?
Anyway, the Sea God hadn’t made a move on me for three consecutive days, would it act here? Da Fei faintly felt something was going to happen and hastily awakened Alicia sleeping on deck, “Get up, get up! Prepare for battle.”
Alicia, sullen, looked around but said nothing and climbed up the mast to the observatory.
Huh, not bad, though often likes to argue with me, she doesn’t fail at critical moments. Da Fei stuck his head out the window and watched Alicia’s climbing, wiggling her bottom, regretting why her belt didn’t fail.
. . .
A speckling reef group appeared ahead. The leading Radiant Wings, with its continuous music, charged into the strait passage at full speed.
Da Fei’s feelings were very conflicting, desiring something to happen to gain some experience and not waste this long sea time, yet hoping nothing would happen and pass safely.
The sky suddenly filled with dark clouds, the sea breeze suddenly halted, and the fleet’s speed suddenly dropped sharply, causing Da Fei to be startled, what was bound to come, finally came!
At this moment, the sea surface was enveloped in dim mist.
The flag bearer hurried over to report, “Captain, the flagship issued a directive, abnormal fog has appeared. The signal flags will be hard to use, please ensure to follow the flagship’s piano sound, absolutely don’t fall behind! Deviating from the route will lead to grounding!”
Da Fei was startled, damn, who issued this order? Isn’t it the baron? Am I training you or are you training me? But gazing at the increasingly dense fog and the more and more blurred shape of the ships ahead, Da Fei broke out in a cold sweat and could only nod.
The fog grew thicker, and the world was immersed in mist. Da Fei’s God-level Reconnaissance Skill was like being blinded in this fog barrier. Soon, the two big green dots representing the flagship and whaling ship disappeared from the radar, leaving only the ethereal piano sound ahead!
Damn, this is navigation by sound! How could this be? When the old lady cast the Mist Technique, at least the radar could still be used, now why can’t it? Is this a God-level fog? Is this the Sea God’s power?
Da Fei’s cold sweat streamed, his hands at the helm trembling tensely. Must not make mistakes, must follow closely!
Wait! There’s another issue, my God-level Reconnaissance Skill can’t see it, how about Catherine’s ship leading the fleet? Blind man riding a blind horse? Could there be whirlpools in the fog? Thinking of this made Da Fei even more uneasy.
As time ticked by nervously, only the symphony of sea waves and piano resonated in the entire world. Da Fei didn’t have a single heart to appreciate it, how much longer?
The piano sound suddenly rose to a high and lofty rhythm. Da Fei’s heart leaped, was this a self-accompanied battle BGM pace? Encountered an enemy? Encountered an enemy, so why didn’t the system prompt? Could it stop playing the piano, since it’s guiding by sound, will blowing a horn kill you?
While tangled and bewildered, Alicia jumped down from the observatory and rushed in, her expression grave, “Captain, something’s wrong. Spielberg’s ship has lost contact; we and the flagship have entered another world!”
Another world? Da Fei exclaimed, “How do you know?”
Alicia said coldly, “Two Little Bees!”
Oh right, her bees could navigate! Meaning my ship and the vice officer’s ship on my side were Sea God’s target for revenge, while the unrelated Spielberg was isolated by the Sea God? Is this Sea God’s power? Too strong! What task did I take on!
Da Fei’s voice began to tremble with tension, “Then, what world could this be?”
“Ahahaha!!!” A massive, majestic laugh suddenly echoed through the misty world!
Da Fei was startled, “Are you the Sea God?”
The vast voice echoed, “How could a puny mortal converse with the Main God? You’re also not qualified to know the name of my Sea General Skira. This is the world of the dead, all mortals who perished at sea have their souls sacrificed to our god, serving our god. Mortal, though you escaped the pursuit of my general’s claws, having almost broken through the mist’s barrier, you still cannot escape this Sea of Death. Repent for your past sins! Wahahaha….”
The laughter gradually faded, the mist slowly vanished, and a massive silver moon shone high in the sky, with the gray-black ocean dotted with tens of thousands of protruding reefs, floating countless shipwreck remnants. Da Fei gasped, this was the ocean of the Undead Realm, my second time here!
At this point, the Radiant Wings was just ahead, and the whaling ship was indeed gone. Now, how to get out? Where was the way?
While hesitating, Da Fei felt the Captain’s Sword at his waist vibrating. Da Fei was suddenly delighted, could it be?
Sure enough, with a flash of light from the Captain’s Sword, a white ghost floated out!
“A ghost!” Alicia screamed!
Damn! This place was full of ghosts, wasn’t it! Da Fei exclaimed, “Renior!”
The ghost Renior laughed heartily, “Adventurer, long time no see? I felt the call of the silver moon, sensing the familiar aura I awoke, I have returned to the Undead Realm.”
Damn, just when I was at my wit’s end, you woke up so timely! Da Fei excitedly said, “Captain! Teacher, I have inherited your teachings from your book, and I’ve become a navigator too!” freёnovelkiss.com
Renior nodded with satisfaction, “Not bad, but you seem to be in trouble now?”
Da Fei was startled, the radar suddenly showed a red cloud. Looking around, countless floating shipwreck remnants slowly surfaced, becoming black intact warships!
Da Fei’s jaw dropped to the floor, damn, ship indeed had life! (To be continued. If you like this work, you’re welcome to come to Qidian (novelbuddy.com) to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please go to m.novelbuddy.com to read.)
