Chapter 839

839 The sea

Half a month later, in the southern coastal waters of the wood Wyrm continent.

Today’s sea situation was very good. A steam trawler which was emitting black smoke was working on the sea. With the shouts of the sailors, the big net of the trawler was put away by the capstan on the ship.

An experienced sailor was smoking a tobacco pipe while controlling a capstan and gazing at the stern. Given the tightening strength of the steel rope and the difficulty of the capstan, experienced sailors could already judge the harvest of this net.

When the net had been half-closed, the sailor couldn’t stand revealing a smile as he turned around and shouted to the boatman who was steering the ship, ” we’ll definitely have a big harvest this time. Boss, we have to give red packets to them when we go back!

The grey-haired boatman stretched his head out of the window of the cabin as he swore, ” if this net could bring me a net of gold from the sea, I will give you a big red packet. F * ck, there’s a debt collector at home who wants to be a Summoner. Is it that easy to be a Summoner? my one year’s salary is not even enough for him to buy a Foundation-building realm bead. It’s like I owe him in my previous life, ”

Ocean gold was a type of precious ocean fish. The prawns were golden all over and were the most delicious food in the ocean. They were also very nutritious, so they were called ocean gold. It meant that only gold of the same weight could be used to buy that kind of precious ocean fish, so they were called ocean gold. Fishing a net of ocean gold was the dream of all fishermen.

Although the boatman was scolding, his tone was full of pride, as if he was showing off. All the sailors on the ship knew that the boatman’s youngest son had the talent to become a Summoner. As long as he fused with one more realm Pearl, he would be able to complete the foundation establishment. This youngest son was the boatman’s pride. The boatman’s family had been fishermen for five generations. Finally, in this generation, there was a talent who could become a Summoner. The fate of the entire family could be changed, so the boatman was extremely proud. He tried his best to make his youngest son a Summoner.

After a short while, the heavy trawler was finally dragged onto the fishing boat by the capstan. At the sight of the trawler becoming an olive shape, everybody cheered up. Sailors also accelerated their work as they started to take hooks, pull nets and open the cabin.

Although this net didn’t contain ocean gold, it was still full. Through the gaps of the net, they could see many peony shrimps and luminous pufferfish, which could also be sold for a lot of money.

With a sound of ” clatter clatter “, the fishing net was opened at once, revealing tens of thousands of catties of sea products on the unloading deck of the fishing boat.

The captain, who was full of smiles, had already handed the rudder to someone else and personally ran to the deck to direct the crowd to unload the cargo.

argh, two dead men! a sailor on the deck suddenly shouted.

That’s right. In the net of fish and shrimps, there were two corpses. Their hands and feet were exposed from the seafood. One of them was very pale while the other was only half a thigh, which was exposed to the air, bones and flesh. It looked a bit terrifying.

A young sailor who had just boarded the ship immediately vomited at the sight of the terrifying wound on his thigh which was 2 m away from him.

Everyone on the ship did not look too good. It was extremely bad luck for people to fish up dead people in the sea.

The captain’s face was as black as the bottom of a pot. Fishermen were very superstitious. When they caught dead people in the sea, they could not take the goods. They had to be thrown back into the sea with the dead people. He had to return immediately and give red packets to the sailors on the ship to calm down. He also had to hire someone to do a French ritual. If he did that, he would have to spend a lot of gold coins, and the expenses would be quite high.

This net of sea products was worth at least dozens of gold coins. It would be a pity if he just put them back into the sea. However, if he didn’t put them back, with so many pairs of eyes on him, his reputation would be ruined if someone among the sailors said something casually when he returned. By then, nobody would come to take goods from him anymore. Additionally, the sailors on this ship would also lose their will.

The boatman also frowned and thought for a moment. Do you remember when we went out to sea this time? the priest of the sea god temple came to persuade us that the sea might not be very calm during this period of time. It seemed that something big had happened and asked us to be careful not to go too far.

yeah, a lot of Summoners came to Donggang City some time ago. It’s a bit chaotic. They seem to be looking for someone to clean up.

whatever, we can’t afford to get into trouble. Let’s go back first, ” the captain said, waving his hand.

All the sailors on the ship nodded, but they were also a little scared. A trouble that could even kill a Summoner at sea was definitely not something they could afford to provoke.

However, half an hour later, the sailor pointed at the sea and shouted once again.

“Boss, there’s a dead body in the sea!”

It was an icy corpse floating on the sea like a piece of floating ice. All the sailors on the ship had noticed it.

The captain, who had just tasted the sweetness, was bold this time. He directly ordered the corpse to be fished up.

The body was quickly fished up, and the layer of ice on the body was cut open with the harpoon on the ship. Sure enough, the person in the body was a Summoner wearing a Summoner’s robe and a pure gold headdress. The boatman had made another fortune.

However, the captain didn’t feel happy for long, because a few minutes later, more and more corpses floated over from the sea. There were at least hundreds of corpses. Those corpses had different looks and died in different ways, but all of them were incomplete. They seemed to be Summoners. After salvaging a few corpses, everyone on the ship became afraid. Even if there were still good things on those corpses, they didn’t dare to salvaging anymore.

Oh my God, how did so many people die? they’re all Summoners? boss? let’s go! even the bravest old sailor on the ship was scared. His face was pale, and he felt that he had been involved in an extremely dangerous matter.

When the boatman ordered the boatman to turn around and bypass those corpses, he suddenly heard a loud boom over 1000 m away in front of them. At the same time, over 100 people rushed into the sky from the water with flickering lights.

One of them was flying in front, and countless people were chasing after him. Flames, arrows, icicles, lightning, and all kinds of spells flashed, piercing through the sea and void. Lightning flashed and Thunder rumbled, all of which greeted the summoner flying in the front. However, a few huge ice shields suddenly appeared around the summoner’s body. The ice shields spun and blocked all the attacks in the blink of an eye.

Seeing such a scene, the people on the boat were scared out of their wits. The boatman quickly turned the boat around and drove at full speed to escape from Xuanji.

hahaha, Xia ping ‘an, let’s see where you can run to now! a burst of laughter came from the sky.

......

The first watch period today!
