Chapter 229: 3 Sea Ghost
"Hey, you don't know, back then I rode upon a cow participating in the once-a-year hunting... I hoisted a hammer bigger than my head, with a 'bang', one hammer then flipped a black bear two times thicker than a mast."
"Hahahaha, that truly is... come, drink."
"Grandpa, grandpa."
The wine table of the Sardin Woman's Country after three rounds of drinks had already begun heading towards the degree of chaos. Not only was the food upon the table spilled everywhere, the crew members also basically lacked the desire to eat anything further. Basically exactly everyone holding a wine glass drinking alcohol with each other, conversing, joking or even singing loudly.
Right within this quite chaotic scene, Karma, Holly and Diandian these three little brats were entirely not even higher than other people's knees. After eating full then once again began running east and west to play.
However Eimhart withdrew, Steel Knife again consistently stayed upon the mast, they possessed nothing to play with so had to resort to finding their own grandpa.
They traversed over the thighs of the crew members akin to a forest, finally finding their own grandpa Old Jack near the edge of the deck. Only seeing upon his not considered aged face carried somewhat of flush, exactly holding a cup of alcohol joking with the Pakhz opposite.
Karma completely drilled out from the pile of crew members first. She curiously sized up a glance at Old Jack, again taking a glance at that chubby grandma opposite him, and then the footsteps exactly stopped in place.
"Karma, quickly go ah, it's so crowded here..."
Karma again carefully scanned a glance at Old Jack and Pakhz, and then turned her head looking towards the Holly and Diandian behind, and then quite seriously raised an index finger,"Shh, don't speak. Plans have changed, we retreat, don't disturb grandpa."
"Ah?"
While afar, Fisher and Alajina consistently sat before the table. She drank quite a bit of alcohol, but her alcohol tolerance obviously wasn't as good as Fisher's.
At this moment, her fair skin like having laid a layer of pink foundation was that enticing. However fortunately her consciousness was still considered clear, not speaking any nonsense, merely recalling her past stories telling to Fisher,
"My mother... was a tremendously rough woman. Catching sight of whatever man, exactly liked knocking them unconscious bringing back to the room forcing relations with them. Men victimized owing to this are many, but at most, she exactly would also only maintain one year's interest towards a single man. After she gave birth to a child she exactly lost this kind of interest. And my father was a destitute aristocrat, possessing a head of beautiful white hair. My mother exactly fancied this point, laying a hand on him..."
"My mother maintained the longest passion towards him, longer than whatever other male. But my father nonetheless exactly couldn't endure such humiliation, rarely giving her a good countenance. She owing to this heavily struck out against my father. Finally, during the year I was fifteen, his hatred towards mother surpassed his love towards me, exactly like this he single-handedly jumped into the frozen lake, leaving me alone and departing."
In reality, the power of the Feudal Kings of the Sardin Woman's Country is extremely immense. These Feudal Kings in ancient times were still extremely obedient to the words of the Co-Ruler of the Woman's Country. But the further reaching later, the power of the Co-Ruler then became increasingly limited, even unable to interfere with the matters of the Vassal States.
Raising a recent example, when the Co-Ruler of the Woman's Country was enraged by Schwari's actions of reselling population, she ordered the Vassal States to implement restriction measures towards Schwari.
But once the order descended, the several Vassal States along the coast deeply possessing trade exchanges with Schwari entirely didn't respond to this order. Merely each individually submitted a letter of explanation to her. Using various kinds of excuses acting as shields ha-ha-ing with the Co-Ruler. Some people claiming the man their own daughter married exactly was from Schwari. Some people claiming their own lover exactly was from Schwari. Infuriating the Co-Ruler completely enough.
Looking at it, Alajina's mother again was precisely that kind among this comparingly doing whatever she pleased type. And this exactly caused exceedingly immense trauma towards her childhood, making her resent her mother to the degree of not hesitating to kill her afterwards wandering across various places in the world.
Hearing Alajina's story, the Isabel beside couldn't help casting her gaze towards her, obviously also moved by Alajina's past.
She suddenly thought of her own older sister Elizabeth. The sentiments between them were similar. But differing from Alajina was, she didn't possess resentment reaching wanting to slay her own older sister.
Then, what exactly was she resenting, to the extent of making herself having to escape Saint-Nazareth?
Isabel entirely couldn't produce an answer. Perhaps, what she resented was exactly herself?
Resenting oneself lacking the capability to interfere with the strife among family members. Resenting oneself being overly well protected by the older sister, entirely discovering nothing whatsoever. Resenting oneself not growing up earlier, still hiding within the palm of the older sister acting as the princess within fairy tales...
Thinking up to here, Isabel's lips were slightly somewhat bitter. She stared at the completely empty wine glass right before her. For the first time reaching out her hand wanting to pour some alcohol inside, letting herself taste a bit of that alcoholic smell entirely never tasted before.
The wheat-dark colored beer gradually filled up the wine glass, but right in the center of the wine glass nonetheless continuously produced layers upon layers of ripples. She exactly thought it was whatever crew member beside getting drunk bumping into the table. But turning her head looking towards the surroundings, all crew members tactfully hadn't approached Alajina and Fisher, adequately providing a fine flirting opportunity for them.
It's not the table swaying, that is the ship swaying?
"Rumble!"
Right when Isabel exactly thought it was her own misconception, in the next second the entire ship then correspondingly intensely trembled once. All crew members simultaneously issued a gasp of surprise. The food and wine glasses upon the table were swayed toppling over. The complexions of Alajina and Fisher both slightly altered a bit. The two people entirely subconsciously wanting to protect the person beside themselves.
Fisher used one hand grabbing onto Isabel's back, one hand grabbing onto Alajina's back, while Alajina then directly yanked onto the clothing at Fisher's chest area.
This subconsciously simultaneously produced action making the two of them look at each other. Especially Alajina, she cast a glance at the position she herself touched Fisher, somewhat embarrassedly moving her hand onto his shoulder,
"Sorry..."
"It's fine."
Fisher looked at below, confirming entirely not generating a second swaying anew afterwards he then deduced saying,
"Underneath the water seemingly possesses something."
Fisher let go of Isabel, squeezing open the crowd together with Alajina walking to the edge of the deck looking towards the below of the ship hull.
The seawater at night consistently was that pitch-black. But the sea surface at this time was turbulent with surging waves, exactly like being crazily stirred up by something.
The Aoxi upon the mast unknown when having already stood her body up, looking at that sea surface from afar. In the next second she gently leapt agilely, seemingly entirely without weight landing beside Alajina.
At this time being close, Fisher then discovered her upper half face appearing exceptionally young. But her height nonetheless was extremely tall, roughly around 1.75 meters or so.
The height interval of adult female Cangniao-zhong of the Northern Border generally entirely exactly between 1.7 meters to 1.8 meters. The Southern Continent's then merely exactly 1.5 meters to 1.6 meters. Aoxi had already belonged to that kind among the Northern Border growing exceedingly tall type of Cangniao-zhong.
Underneath Aoxi's head of white short hair, the alluring visage was half obscured by the inappropriate robe leaving people unable to grasp her complete beauty. At this time she was tightly staring at that calm water surface, and then opened her mouth before Fisher for the very first time,
"【Sea Ghost】..."
Her voice sounded entirely without any fluctuations, the tone exactly was also exceedingly similar to Alajina's. However her timbre exactly wasn't the mature type like Alajina's, sounding considerably younger.
"Sea Ghost?"
Having heard her words, Fisher again meticulously scrutinized the pitch-black sea surface below once. Underneath that water bottom, seemingly possessed a certain kind of gigantic creature exactly traversing through. But owing to the sky color being overly dark, what he saw wasn't exceedingly clear.
But this term Aoxi mentioned wasn't that he entirely never heard before. Whether it was Jasmine or Reinar when frightened all uniformly spoke like this. But at the time he entirely exactly took it as that thing precisely like a ghost within the sea, entirely illusory unable to see the specific shape. Entirely not anticipating this thing was authentically existing.
Right at this time, Sir Book Artifact Eimhart exactly also floated out from Fisher's pocket. Quite admiringly looking at that cluster of shadow beneath the water bottom,
"Ah, correct, that is a Sea Ghost floating ashore to exchange breath. Inside the ocean possesses exceptionally many strangely appearing, massively sized macroscopic creatures. Sea Ghost exactly is one type among them. This kind of thing is exactly a renowned predator within the water, exceedingly formidable. However normally their active regions are entirely the Deep Sea, rarely appearing upon the water surface. Only when nearing winter, they would float up the water surface coming to exchange breath."
At this time, the Pakhz gripping a cup of alcohol, leaning beside the fencing next to blushed and smiled, taking over the words,
"Correct. We in the past during winter exactly would specifically drive the ship into the Northern Ocean finding this kind of monster to hunt. However basically encountering once in ten or eight years. Entirely not anticipating this time unexpectedly encountered a Sea Ghost within the Southern Ocean... upon its body possesses exceptionally many treasures. Its teeth can be made into accessories also can be made into weapons. Within the body exactly also possesses a kind of Magic Material twenty times more precious than gold. Such a massive one, even more valuable than robbing Schwari merchant ships three times."
Speaking and speaking, she then naturally stretched out her hand embracing Old Jack's shoulder beside her, and then patting his chest,
"Mr. Jack, we are about to strike it rich, exactly a few days later."
The Old Jack at this time drank entirely too high, basically entirely not realizing the woman beside exactly was a fierce woman of the Sardin Woman's Country, he entirely exactly took the other party as a friend drinking alcohol.
After hearing Pakhz's words, he squinted his eyes looking towards the sea surface afar. Finally witnessing that colossal entity hidden within the water constantly advancing within the gradually clearing moonlight.
Turns out that was exactly a giant creature exactly possessing an appearance akin to a squid. The overall color predominantly taking pure black as main. But the epidermis nevertheless again entirely not as smooth as a squid, but exactly exactly hard and uneven like volcanic rock.
"Smack smack..."
Behind it trailed countless gigantic tentacles of varying lengths for a very long distance. Waiting until it gradually departed afar, those tentacles akin to steel exactly gently patted upon the bottom of the Iceberg Queen Ship, issuing crisp sounds.
All the crew members entirely stared with eyes emitting light at that constantly departing giant beast. Pausing for one second past, Alajina then decisively reached out issuing orders,
"Everyone, the Iceberg Queen Ship immediately advances at half-speed. The night shift also swapping from two shifts to four shifts. Must keep up with the pace of the Sea Ghost."
"Yes!"
Old Jack was somewhat sobered up from the alcohol by the excited answering sounds of the surroundings and the blowing of the sea breeze. He shook his head, hearing the captain beside unexpectedly wanting to use the ship to chase that gigantic monster. He entirely uniformly neglected being taken advantage of by Pakhz, hurriedly opening his mouth saying,
"Wait, therefore we exactly are going to catch that giant sea monster now?"
Pakhz drunkenly approached Old Jack a bit, and then gazing at that massive Sea Ghost constantly getting closer beneath the bright moon, reaching out her hand simply gesticulating a bit, exactly like describing a moving mountain of gold to him,
"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious Mr. Jack. We exactly naturally aren't going to catch it now, right now this Sea Ghost entirely exactly just floated up, its state is still exactly situated at the peak state. But these subsequent few days, it entirely must endure the low pressure upon the sea surface to discharge the exhaust gases within its body. Also must again store up the air needed to be used underneath the seabed. This procedure exactly at least requires two or three days..."
"We exactly exactly want to wait until it arrives at the end of its strength, possessing no alternative but to return to the seabed before finally taking action. Words exactly are spoken like this, strike while it's weak, take its life... don't be anxious, the money earned I will buy a gold chain for you."
Old Jack opened his mouth, the head filled completely by alcohol abruptly couldn't turn the corner. Making him momentarily not knowing whether should exactly complain regarding the matter of fighting the Sea Ghost, or whether should exactly complain regarding the matter of Pakhz wanting to gift oneself a gold chain.
Begging for votes, tips and support, this is exceptionally important to me.
