Chapter 111 The hatched [Egg of the Ancient Dragon] Whether it is a simple accident or the negative effects brought about by the talent of [The Blessing of the Sea]. For [Black Swan], a terrible storm will inevitably come. Xia En immediately summoned the crew on the deck and issued the order with a serious face. “Feiya, you go to the turbine room and make sure the steam turbine is full.” “When necessary, you can feed it all the discarded mechanical parts on the ship.” “Yes, Captain!” Feiya nodded heavily and immediately walked down to the lower cabin. These days, he has become familiar with [Gluttony Steam Turbine]. Although he has a bit of an eccentric temperament and a bit of greed, this steam turbine is still a good boy at heart, and is naturally willing to listen to the teachings of his steam priest.
“An, go and make sure the supplies and cargo in each cabin are properly placed, especially the fresh water tank!” An tapped his fist on the chest of the heavy armor and took action without any hesitation. “Joy, I’ll leave the cables and sails to you. Remember to secure the debris on the deck. The next wind and waves... may be unusually large!” Joy's eyes were firm: "Yes! Mr. Captain!" Looking at the busy people, Xia En didn't feel much relaxed. Even though the performance of the [Black Swan] is already very good, a mature captain will never despise any storm on the sea. Those who underestimate the power of nature have long been buried in this sea forever. Before taking the helm, Shane's eyes swept across the captain's cabin. I don’t know if it’s his imagination. As the storm at sea gradually formed, the smell of [Ancient Dragon's Egg] in the captain's cabin was vaguely restless? Boom! A bolt of lightning flashed in the dark clouds, and then the sound of thunder exploded. This thunder has also become the clarion call for the official arrival of the storm.
The heavy rain poured down, and the raindrops fell like pebbles on the deck of the [Black Swan]. The wind howled and the waves surged into the sky. The [Black Swan] appeared extremely small and weak on this violent sea, as if it would capsize at any time. The low whistle sounds like the trembling neigh of the Black Swan. But at this moment, Shane took hold of the rudder.
"Xiao Hei, don't be afraid, I'm here." Different from when he was promoted to the ritual, he could actually feel the soul of the ship and...the inseparable connection between himself and it! In this case, what does he have to fear? “It’s just a storm, I’ll take you out!” 【Yes, Master! ! 】 With the high-pitched whistle and the rising smoke, the [Black Swan] suddenly accelerated and moved forward against the violent wind and rain. Of course, Xia En did not blindly increase the speed to full speed. When driving a ship in such strong winds and waves, the speed is actually not the most critical, but the stability of the entire ship is important. As long as it does not roll over or be hit by a huge wave, the situation is relatively safe. Fortunately, the dark secret text engraved on the keel of the ship's hull came into play at this moment. They flickered brightly and darkly, and the mysterious power was connected together and attached to the lower layer of the hull, making it very stable. Boom! Suddenly, there was another thunder. Xia En suddenly woke up and looked up at the clouds above. I saw an extremely large and terrifying figure vaguely reflected in the fleeting light of the thunder. Huge fleshy wings, majestic scales, and a pair of purple vertical pupils looming in the clouds. Thunder seems to be its roar, and the violent wind is its breath. A strong majestic aura spread out, making people tremble instinctively. dragon? ! Xia En’s eyelids twitched slightly and his heart was shaken. To be precise, this should be a Western dragon. Even so, the pressure it brings exceeds all the secret travelers that Xia En has seen. Neither the Queen of the Sea Tribe nor Carles is as good as this giant dragon hidden in the clouds! It even gave him a sense of oppression on a life level. “Mr. Captain, look into the sea!” At this time, Joey on the deck let out another exclamation. Xia En followed her gaze. Then he saw a huge, dark silhouette quietly emerging from under the undulating sea.
What surprised Xia En even more was that its body shape actually had many similarities with the giant dragon in the sky. “…two dragons?” Xia En figured everything out in an instant. This is not a natural storm at all, but a strange phenomenon caused by the fight between two giant dragons. And he and the [Black Swan] are just unlucky guys who accidentally broke into this place. “Have I ever encountered such a small probability event?” Xia En’s mouth twitched: “[The blessing of the sea]… It’s really yours!” Complaints were made, but his mood became more solemn. Stuck into the battle of such a powerful creature, it is more dangerous than an ordinary storm! No one knows whether these two giant dragons will suddenly regard the Black Swan as an enemy and overturn it with a slap. Fortunately, it may be because the size of the [Black Swan] is too small compared to the dragon. The giant dragons in the sky and the sea didn't care about its existence, they just looked at each other's existence. Roar! The giant dragon in the clouds roared again. Strong winds blew, and terrifying thunder fell from high places, leaving purple electric snakes on the sea. And the giant dragon in the sea was not to be outdone. A waterspout-like water column shot straight into the sky, stirring the dark clouds. Looking at this terrifying fight, Xia En felt his scalp numb and his eyelids twitching. At least at this stage, this is a battle that he cannot participate in at all. “However, if you hide your aura like this and don’t actively provoke them, you should be able to escape from this dangerous sea very quickly…” Xia En just came up with this idea. There was a "click" and the window in the captain's cabin shattered. Immediately, a smooth and round dragon egg flew out. At this time, many fine cracks appeared on the surface of the dragon egg, and an unspeakable secret power lingered around it. It is precisely driven by these mysterious forces that it has the characteristics of temporarily hanging in the air and flying. Before Xia En could react, a loud and childish cry came from inside the dragon egg! Although this dragon roar is far less powerful and terrifying than the two giant dragons, it carries a different kind of majestic majesty! As if to declare— It is a nobler and more ancient existence! When it returns to the world, all descendants should surrender!
The mysterious power in the air, rain and ocean seems to be flowing into its body. In an instant, the heavy rain, thunder, and huge waves seemed to have stopped at this moment. The two giant dragons in the sky and the ocean both cast a surprised look at the dragon egg. As if they were also shocked by it for a moment. However, the next second after the thundering cry, most of the secret power on the surface of the dragon egg dissipated, and it quickly fell downwards. With a "plop" sound, it fell into the sea water. Shaan: "?" He thought what the dragon egg was trying to do! In the end, he just came out and yelled? However, under the current situation, there is no time for Xia En to complain anymore. Just because the two giant dragons were attracted by the [Black Swan], curiosity and wariness flashed in their eyes. “Aren’t you here to cause trouble?” Just being locked by the dragon's gaze, Xia En felt his heart skip a beat, and his body instinctively trembled slightly. Xia En glanced at the position where the dragon egg sank into the sea, with a trace of reluctance flashing in his eyes. In normal times, he would definitely use [Deep Sea Diving] to rescue the dragon eggs. But unfortunately, he has already used up the number of submersibles today! And if you wait until you escape and then come back to look for the dragon egg, the possibility of finding it is slim. “It seems that we have to give it up...” Xia En sighed in his heart. Compared to this dragon egg, the [Black Swan] and other crew members are more important. At this time, Joey on the deck suddenly said: "Mr. Captain, I can bring it back! Please give the order!" "…you?" Xia En looked at Joey unexpectedly, only to find that the girl's eyes were extremely firm, showing no hesitation or cowardice. He is completely different from the poor sailor who had a low self-esteem when he first got on the ship. Unknowingly, this girl has also grown up in a way that cannot be ignored. A new round of violent storms is approaching, and thunder is accumulating in the clouds. The breath of the dragon is clearly audible. Xia En knew that he had no time to hesitate. He immediately said seriously: "Joy, go! Remember, your life is far more important than that!"
“Thank you for your trust, I will definitely come back!” After saying this, Joey jumped into the sea. In the blink of an eye, her petite body was swallowed up by the huge waves and disappeared. Xia En suppressed the worries in his heart, held the rudder, and penetrated the whole ship with his will. Amidst the howling wind, heavy rain and roaring thunder, the [Black Swan] began to move forward at full speed! … … Maybe Xia En was lucky, or maybe the two dragons’ main enemies were each other. After a long but thrilling chase and escape, the dragons got entangled again. And the [Black Swan] was also able to escape from this chaotic and dangerous sea. The several holes in the cabin, the deck full of water, and the pitiful whine of the steam turbine were all enough to illustrate the danger of the situation just now. But at this time, Xia En's heart was still high. He parked the Black Swan in the distance, stood on the deck, looked at the sea in the distance, and waited for something quietly. Compared with the previous pursuit and escape, this kind of waiting without knowing the outcome is actually more painful. Until a certain moment.
Water splashing. A girl with white hair and red eyes emerged from the water holding a dragon egg, smiling and waving to Xia En. “Mr. Captain, I’m back!” Seeing this scene, Xia En breathed a sigh of relief. Soon, Joey swam to the side of the [Black Swan] and jumped out of the water lightly. Her lower body is like a fish-like tail. The pure jade-like scales shine in the sunlight, giving it a thrilling beauty. Even Xia En looked a little lost in thought. As soon as Joy returned to the deck, the dragon egg in her arms kept breaking. A fresh little life breaks out of its shell. Thanks to "I miss you so much" for the 1900-coin reward! Thank you so much!
