Life has dealt a heavy hand to a weak demigod like me.

"I now understand why my father always likes to explore outside." Peroz said, raising the bottle of wine in his hand.

For any noble lady, the experiences during this period are enough to make her curse constantly at night.

But for Peroz, she actually enjoys this kind of environment.

Cursing sailors without disguises and masks, the ocean full of unknowns... all of this is a new experience for her.

"Just get used to it. I can't control those little bastards anymore."

"Sometimes their mouths are as vulgar as a toilet bowl."

Finks had barely finished his words when he was stabbed in the back.

"Boss, you're pretending to be a gentleman again. You weren't so polite when we went to ride those succubi with everyone else."

"That's right, the voice was so loud that they were afraid we couldn't hear it."

"We are all women here, but you are the only one screaming there, boss. You almost scared me to death."

Finks's face darkened.

"roll roll roll!"

"You bunch of bastards, do you really think I won't take action?"

Finks jumped over from Peroz, beat up the few people who had just started the heckling the most, then straightened his clothes and walked over.

Because of the backstabbing, he couldn't say many of the things he had prepared.

After hesitating for a while, Finks scratched his hair under Peroz's smiling gaze and said, "We're very close to that place. We'll probably go through a test tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

"Anyway...get ready."

After saying these words, Finks ran towards his room as if escaping.

Originally he wanted to be a generous elder.

These little bastards are so fucking annoying.

Not to mention the elders, in order to please Peroz, those sailors sold out all of Finks during this period.

Finks was puzzled by this.

Your way of improving people's favorability is to talk about other people's bad performance on the red street in front of girls?

Besides, what’s wrong with me shouting loudly?

It feels so good, but you won’t let me scream out loud?

What kind of logic is this!

Chapter 42: You Must Come Back

The next day, before the weather cleared up, Peroz woke up.

The boat began to sway slowly, and the amplitude made her feel something was amiss.

She put on her clothes, picked up her weapon, and walked quickly to the deck.

In addition to the sailors on night duty, Finks also stood on the deck with a solemn expression.

"Are you in any trouble?" Peroz asked curiously.

Finks shook his head. "I was preparing to perform a ceremony."

"ceremony?"

"Is it a ritual to calm the wrath of the ocean?"

The wrath of the sea refers to stormy thunderstorms, which is the weather that people who make a living on the ship hate to see the most.

A big storm can easily capsize a large ship. Even the latest steel warship cannot guarantee that it will not sink under the "wrath" of the ocean.

Therefore, people who go out to sea usually bring some extraordinary items with them as long as conditions permit, to prevent the ship from being destroyed by bad weather.

This is a method passed down from the church, although it is of little use when facing storms caused by some magical storms, or storms with too high a level.

But in the face of ordinary storms, this ritual will give the ship some protection, making it less easily destroyed by the storm.

"No, this is a ritual to cause a storm." Finks smiled. "Although changing the weather directly isn't difficult with my abilities, I have to save some energy since we're landing on Jevers Island today."

Although there is magic power on the Island of Jevils, the magic power there is considered "poison" by Finks.

Just like the extraordinary characteristics, those who absorb the extraordinary characteristics there will be restricted to that island and become defenders. At the same time, their mentality will change greatly, and they will eventually become a man-eating monster.

And the same is true of the magical energy in that place.

After absorbing the magical energy from that place, the body will gradually develop a feeling of hunger, but this hunger cannot be relieved by ordinary food.

Only people can make them feel satisfied.

Not only the magic power, but all the creatures inside are also infected with this characteristic.

Even the food you bring with you will gradually change its properties if it is left there for a long time.

After escaping from there, he condensed all his memories about that place, found a "performer" to perform reasoning and calculations, and finally came up with a series of conclusions about what happened there.

If you eat the ordinary creatures there and drink the water there, it will gradually be contaminated in ten days at most.

It will take about fifteen days to eat the food and drink the water you bring.

Fusion of extraordinary characteristics will instantly transform one into a monster, but there is no risk of failure. Absorbing magic energy to replenish energy, when a person's magic energy is exhausted and replenished, there is a risk of losing control.

Of course, this information is not complete, and there are great doubts about its authenticity.

After all, "The Performer" is a new sequence, and the Sequence 9 potion is called the Actuary. The Performer is the name of the Sequence 5 of this sequence, and it is also the end of this sequence.

The abilities of actors are somewhat similar to the abilities of divination and prophecy.

However, they appear to be more "scientific". The extraordinary people in this sequence can model known things and then fill in some of their unique "key information" into the model.

Afterwards, this model will slowly evolve, and they can use the evolution of this model to deduce about the future and turn some unknowns into knowns.

Because they are not truly peering into the long river of time, the calculated future will be completely different from what they want to see or the real future if there is even the slightest fluctuation.

However, the extraordinary people in this sequence also have their own advantages in peeking into the future compared to traditional prophets.

Their deductions will not be affected by the ability to counter-predict. The only factors that affect their ability to deduce the real future are their own extraordinary sequence level and the amount of modeling intelligence they have collected.

Although he did not trust the information obtained by the "performer" he found, Finks still made many responses based on this information.

"Ten days. We can only stay there for ten days this time." Finks said to Peroz.

"After that, no matter what the harvest is, we have to leave there."

"It's a little short, but we can come here again and again, if you know what I mean."

Peroz nodded.

Of course she understood what Finks meant. They might not gain anything this time, but after going there once, they would have a deeper understanding of the place.

In this way, they can prepare for the next return voyage. If it doesn’t work out next time, they can come back again the next time.

Of course, the premise of all this is that they can survive until that time and not give up exploring this place.

Under the effect of the ceremony, the wind around began to blow faster, and the sky, which was not clear to begin with, became gloomy.

The roar of thunder and lightning slowly reached Peroz's ears.

At the same time, raindrops as big as soybeans poured down from the sky.

In a flash, everyone was soaked.

However, everyone is very familiar with this situation.

People who make a living on the water will always encounter such bad weather, and this storm was caused by them.

"Boss, are we going to set sail?" Looking at the increasingly severe storm, the first mate standing on the lookout tower shouted loudly below.

"Wait a minute, it's not the time yet!" Finks also answered loudly.

Because of the storm and their need to conserve their magic power, communication between the two was difficult even at the top of their lungs.

The roar in the sky became louder.

Finks' eyes were fixed on the clouds in the sky.

Another half an hour later, the clouds in the sky suddenly gave him a sense of disharmony.

"It's now!"

"start sailing!"

The voice imbued with magical energy instantly spread throughout the entire Black Flag.

Setting sail in a storm is not a good option, but this only applies to ordinary ships, and the Black Flag is not one of them.

When his sails were raised, an extremely huge thrust rose from the stern.

The helmsman held the rudder tightly to prevent it from deviating in the slightest due to the storm.

Under the huge thrust, the ship began to move forward at high speed, and rushed into the sky with the help of the crests of the waves.

"Hahaha! I'll leave the rest to you, Herbert!"

A figure fell from the boat. As he fell, his shape gradually changed. Scales and gills appeared on his face, his hands and feet slowly connected, and some fins appeared on his back.

Murloc?

Peroz was a little surprised. He had been here for a long time and never thought that there would be a fishman around him.

Before she could be surprised, a huge wave suddenly rose up and rushed straight towards the Black Flag.

Peroz instinctively closed his eyes, but the huge wave did not cause any damage to the Black Flag. Instead, it further pushed the Black Flag up into the clouds. At the same time, the remaining power transformed into a blue energy that surrounded the Black Flag.

"You must come back...Captain!" Looking at the ship entering the clouds, Herbert slowly sank to the bottom of the sea and waited for their return.

Chapter 43: Appetizers

The storm disappeared when the ship broke through the thick clouds.

But what replaced it was a denser layer of lightning.

At the same time, the ship strangely came to rest on the clouds. The clouds, which should have been gaseous, now supported the Black Flag, slowly carrying it forward like a mighty river.

"Is this...an ocean current? No, should I say a cloud current?" Peroz asked dazedly, looking at the dark clouds while lying on the edge of the workbench.

"It's amazing, isn't it?" Finks said to Peroz while looking at the lightning above with a serious expression.

"But after sailing the sea for a long time, you will find that the world is full of twists and turns."

"On this ocean, anything you think is impossible is possible."

This is exactly why Finks likes being here so much.

"But now, please pay attention. We have only passed the first test and seen the door there. Only after passing through this "sea of ​​thunder" can we truly get the ticket to Yevils Island!"

Thunder Sea is what Finks calls the next journey.

Under the influence of the cloud flow, even if they did nothing, they would reach the Island of Yevers in two hours at most.

But this journey is not completely safe.

Or it is very dangerous.

The black clouds hovering above their heads would continuously drop lightning. The last time they rashly entered here, all the non-superhuman sailors died.

At the same time, he also spent too much magic energy to protect the crew, and left in a hurry without staying there for long. But even so, they paid a heavy price to leave there.

After explaining this to Peroz, Finks shouted to the others around him, "Stop standing there like idiots. Get your lightning rods ready."

"Don't worry, boss, we've already prepared it."

"We will definitely have no problem dealing with Lei Hai or anything like that."

While speaking, the first mate also took out a lot of cloaks made of insulating materials.

These cloaks are not only made of insulating materials, but also have many magic patterns attached to them, giving him some magic resistance and resistance to lightning.

"Men, take your cloaks and go to the cabin. I'm going to put clothes on our ship." As the first mate spoke, he took out a transparent thing that looked like a plastic raincoat, and then he threw the "raincoat" into the sky.
