I Have a Sailing Game-Chapter 358 - 229: Twilight Baisis

[Our surroundings are still shrouded in fog, making it impossible to discern direction.]

[The pointer has failed, we can’t identify direction, so we can only navigate blindly...]

[The food reserves on the ship are nearing the bottom, and strange sounds are coming from within the fog, with some bizarre occurrences happening on the Fire Seed Ship...]

The message abruptly stopped here.

Without a doubt, Haoyete’s Fire Seed Ship encountered unknown dangers.

The sudden interruption of the message is enough to explain everything.

Meanwhile, the conch connected to another Fire Seed Ship continues to receive no messages.

As for Aitar’s conch, it had long been damaged.

At present, it seems Rogel can’t obtain information from any other members of the Fire Seed fleet; they might have all encountered trouble.

After hearing these messages.

The rest of the people aboard Gelin also fell silent.

"Perhaps the conch is just broken."

Noemi whispered, but she couldn’t quite believe her own words.

Rogel exhaled and put away the conch.

"Let’s keep moving forward, we have our own share of troubles too."

The rain falling from the overcast sky was becoming heavier and heavier.

...

Rumble——

The thunder accompanied the torrential rain, fierce winds raised towering waves.

The sea seemed clenched within a giant hand, shaking violently, waves rolling one after another.

With a thud, a giant tsunami directly engulfed Gelin.

The entire Gelin was submerged, disappearing from sight.

But soon, the tiny Gelin reemerged on the sea surface.

Protected by Fish Shell Ship Clothing.

Under its protection, Gelin no longer feared being swallowed by the sea.

But the violent shaking still left everyone onboard somewhat shaken.

"Yiya yiya!"

The Little Elf sleeping inside the cabin was thrown off its bed, dazed and dizzy.

"Meow!" Big Orange clung to a pillar, holding on tightly.

With a thud.

An empty potion bottle at the head of Rogel’s bed fell and struck the baby dragon’s head below, shattering on the ground.

Bang!

Soon after, the baby dragon was bumped against the wall with a muffled thud as it slid down with the jostle.

"Hoo..."

However, the baby dragon continued sleeping sweetly, unaffected, and even snoring a bit louder.

"Damn, these waves are torturous!"

Yas couldn’t help but curse.

Battered by torrential rains and fierce winds, Gelin seemed insignificant, drifting helplessly and struggling.

Rogel was just about to fetch the navigation map to discern direction.

But he suddenly looked up ahead.

Saw a massive sea creature with several layers of slimy skin membrane around its neck approaching Gelin with the waves, opening its foul maw with sharp, dense teeth gleaming coldly.

An Apostle level sea monster!

"You sure know how to pick a moment!"

Rogel snorted, extended his hand, veins popped on the back of his hand, and a mysterious purple force spread out.

The sea monster, once wild and menacing, was suddenly immobilized by this force.

Rogel prepared to crush the monster with a firm grip.

But, unexpectedly, the sea monster shattered instantly, torn into countless pieces, while struggling violently.

These pieces didn’t bleed but rapidly transformed into small sea monsters and fled immediately.

Clearly aware of the power gap, it escaped without hesitation.

All that was left under Rogel’s control was a skeleton of fish bones.

"What a cunning creature."

Mira gasped in wonder at the scene.

Rogel tossed the skeleton aside and picked up the navigation map.

This navigation map had rich functionalities, not only displaying places the user wanted to see but also showing their location on the map.

Based on the current situation, Rogel and the others were not far from [Twilight Baisis].

...

The storm finally eased slightly.

This situation made Rogel unable to relax.

He had to remain vigilant on Gelin to prevent any potential incidents.

Though, they would soon reach the islands, Twilight Baisis, where they might catch a brief respite.

At this time, Gelin had already been sailing for two and a half days.

But from the map’s view, the distance from the Dark Bottom Fish Cave exit to Twilight Baisis was indeed short.

Originally, Rogel thought this sea area wasn’t large.

It now seemed they had journeyed quite a while for such a small distance, suggesting the full Sea of Confession must be incredibly vast.

"This storm’s been raging for days without stopping, maybe all the world’s clouds have gathered here..."

Noemi complained wearily.

Now with the storm weakened considerably, they finally had a chance to clean up.

Even protected by Fish Shell Ship Clothing, Gelin wouldn’t fear tsunamis like other ships.

But the turbulent sea currents above and below were inevitable.

This caused a substantial loss of materials onboard Gelin, requiring them to reorganize and clean up.

Rogel felt a little regretful.

Not because the storm was over, but because there was just the storm.

Some waves couldn’t be called tsunamis. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

If other calamities had occurred, Rogel could have used the Magic Potion to ascend further.

However, he hadn’t yet refined the Deputy ascending Magic Potion.

"Stop complaining, we must be almost there."

Rogel spoke, looking at the map.

"The rain’s lessened." Lina remarked, "Seems it’s about to end."

"Finally, we’ll get rid of these..."

Noemi was too tired to talk.

Not having had a good sleep for two days, always waking up midway, was truly tormenting.

...

"Island sighted!"

After days of stormy sailing, everyone aboard Gelin finally saw the shadow of their destination.

Everyone eagerly gathered on deck, gazing towards the familiar island.

Gelin slowly made its way toward the docking port of Bais Islands.

Everyone anticipated the island.

Mira suddenly sensed something unusual and glanced skyward.

Though the storm was gone and the rain had ceased.

But... the situation here seemed somewhat off.

The sky was extremely overcast, not the ordinary dull gray, but darkening like impending nightfall.

The sea was eerily calm.

No sign of any marine life, not even the slightest wave.

Almost like a deathly silence was descending.

"Captain, is there any additional info about Twilight Baisis on the map?"

Mira asked Rogel.

Upon hearing her query, Rogel took out the map, closed his eyes briefly, then put it back.

"No, why do you ask?"

Rogel too felt something eerie.

"Just feels a bit odd... maybe it’s just my imagination."

Mira spoke, assuming her unrest might be caused due to a lack of proper sleep.

"You think there’s danger here?"

Rogel smiled, then continued.

"I actually feel the same way." Rogel said, "But even if there is danger, we should at least go and see."

Mira nodded.

Perhaps she was just overthinking.

"Prepare to dock."

Rogel commanded.

Gelin soon arrived at the docking port.

Oddly, the lighthouse seemed unattended.

Its guardian seemed nowhere to be found.

Even stranger, there was not a single vessel at the docking port, which was quite unusual.

There should be local fishing boats or other smaller vessels even if there were no big ships.

Yet the port had only Gelin, a desolate emptiness.

No signs of human presence were seen, incredibly bizarre.

Rogel controlled the Fish Shell Ship Clothing to open a passage, then lowered the boarding ladder.

Everyone descended the ladder.

After many days, everyone finally stepped onto the reassuringly solid ground.

"Not a soul here..."

Rogel furrowed his brow deeply.
