657 Chapter 686: A Terrifying Ship!
“Why? We’re already so far away? Why would we encounter such a Thing?”
The captain stood on the high deck and looked at the approaching fog. His face was extremely livid as he hurriedly shouted, “What are you still standing there for? Turn the rudder and quickly avoid that damn thing! !”
Only then did the sailors wake up from their dreams. They threw down the rum in their hands to celebrate and began to get busy under the guidance of the first mate!
Meanwhile, the captain continued to use his binoculars to observe the strange layer of gray fog…
As the steering wheel turned, the steam engine started. With a roar, the ship was suddenly filled with the rumbling noise of machinery.
However, the ship also quickly turned in another direction!
However, the strange thing was that the gray fog seemed to have identified them and was also heading in the direction they had turned, causing everyone’s scalps to go numb!
The Captain’s face turned ashen. Their ship was carrying the most advanced equipment in the western archipelago, including a steam engine that could reach a speed of 4 knots (7.8 km/h) !
However, this advanced equipment was completely unable to help them escape the pursuit of the gray fog. Seeing the fog getting closer and closer, the captain could not help but stomp his feet and curse, “Damn it! !”!
Then, without anyone noticing, he looked at the back of the deck and retreated!
“It’s coming, that thing is coming! !”The sailors on the deck cried out in fear!
When the mechanics and sailors in charge of refueling in the cabin heard the terrified voice, their bodies tensed up and they thought to themselves, “What on Earth is that thing?”?
Before they could come over, they heard a bang as if they had hit something huge. The entire ship shook violently, and some sailors who did not have the time to react were sent flying into the boiler by the violent shock, then, they let out shrill screams!
Some of them hit sharp objects around the corner, and half of their heads were knocked off instantly. They fell to the ground and began to Twitch.
Some of them were lucky enough to hit a flat surface, but they were also thrown into a mess. They did not have the time to react and save people, and the scene instantly became extremely chaotic!
At this time, the second mate, who had fallen to the ground, barely managed to stand up and wanted to order the people around him to quickly save him. Suddenly, a creepy creaking sound rang out, and the second mate, who was about to give the order, was stunned… …
The sound was like someone was chewing on something. However, the volume of the sound was extremely loud. It came from all directions, giving people the feeling that… … It was as if the hull of the ship was being gnawed by something!
At the thought of this, the second mate immediately had goosebumps. He thought to himself, “What is the situation outside?”?
..
In fact, it was just as the second mate had heard. The ship was indeed being gnawed on. Compared to the second mate, the crew members who saw this scene on the deck had a truly terrified and desperate look on their faces!
They did not know when, but their surroundings had already turned dark. The bright and beautiful sunlight seemed to have been completely isolated, and the atmosphere was desperate and cold.
They also saw clearly that the ship had crashed into something…
It was a ship that was even bigger than them. The hull was pitch-black, and it seemed as if the entire body was made of metal. It also did not have the mast and sail on their side. In terms of the hull, it was very beautiful. The sharp lines gave people a strong impact, however, no one was willing to appreciate the design of this ship.
Because other than the sharp lines, there was something even more strange about this ship. It was the black hull of the ship, with countless huge mouths!
To be precise, it was not the mouth, because there were no lips. To be precise, it should have countless teeth. Countless pairs of teeth that were ferocious and black, constantly oozing out stinky blood!
These teeth were crazily gnawing at the hull of their ship!
Not only that, under this huge black ship, there were numerous sea creatures floating, big and small, ranging from sharks, giant seals, small to turtles, crabs…
However, these creatures appeared extremely strange at this moment. Their eyes were gray, like only dead things. There was no light at all, and their bodies were emitting a disgusting stench, they were also crazily gathering and gnawing at the hull of the ship.
They watched as the steel shell at the bottom of the ship was gnawed down with crunching sounds. The group of people suddenly felt their scalps go numb!
What the hell was this?
The sailors screamed in horror. One of the sailors could not help but pull out the pistol at his waist and pull the trigger on the huge black ship!
With a bang, the bullet accurately hit a pair of huge teeth. With a ding-dong sound, just like the sound of a bullet hitting metal, but at the same time, the teeth suddenly stopped, and then.., a huge eye actually opened on the hull of the ship, staring fixedly at the crew member who had just fired!
Everyone immediately fell silent, staring in shock at the crew member who had just fired. At that moment, the crew member also realized that something was wrong, and his face instantly turned pale as he was stared at by the huge naked eye.., it was even more terrifying than being stared at by a huge boa when he was young. He felt his blood drop to the freezing point.
“Save me…”the crew member did not dare to move and looked at his companions around him as if he was asking for help.
However, the surrounding crew members, including the first mate, slowly moved away from him… …
It was obvious that the actions of the people around him were correct. Two seconds later, the teeth that were hit by the bullet suddenly opened and a snake-like black shadow suddenly shot out and wrapped around him, at the same time, it wrapped around the few people who had not been able to retreat in time. Upon closer inspection, the thing that wrapped around the sailors looked like a pile of black rotten meat, and also looked a little like the tentacles of an octopus. However, before everyone could see clearly.., this disgusting thing pulled those unlucky sailors back into the terrifying teeth.
Immediately, everyone heard a shrill scream and a bone-chilling chewing sound coming from inside!
The chewing of flesh and blood was obviously more devastating than the body of the ship being eaten. The sailors finally could not stand it anymore and frantically fled into the cabin!
Although they knew that they could not escape the fate of being eaten even if they escaped into the cabin, at this time, their instincts had already overcome their rationality. They were just subconsciously trying to find a place to hide!
This included the usually calm first mate…
They saw him frantically escaping into his office in the cabin. He locked the door with a backhand and then continued to take the surrounding tables, chairs, and books to block the doors and windows.
After doing all this, he stood rooted to the spot. For a moment, he did not know what to do. However, the next second, with a bang, the cabinet blocking the window was bitten to pieces, the huge and stinky teeth instantly appeared at the position of the broken window.
The first mate screamed in horror and ran frantically to the door, trying to move the obstacles blocking the door. However, because it was stuck too tightly just now, he could not move those things even after trying several times.
Time passed by second by second. After trying a few times without success, the first mate suddenly reacted. It had been so long, why did the terrifying teeth behind him not attack him?
Thinking of this, the first mate hesitated for a moment, and finally looked back carefully.
As soon as he turned his head, he saw a pair of emerald-like eyes, which scared him so much that he sat down on the ground.
Was it a person?
After seeing clearly, the first mate looked at the other party in disbelief. He did not know when the terrifying giant teeth had disappeared, but what was left was an extremely beautiful woman.
“You are the first mate of the ship?”
The first mate was stunned. This woman was actually speaking fluent Tanzantrise language…
“What? You Don’t understand?”The woman spoke again, but this time in the common Fanke language of the western islands… …
“Listen… Listen… I understand, I understand!”The first mate reacted and quickly nodded like a chick pecking at rice.
“It’s good that you understand!”The woman smiled. “Tell me, why is your Tanzantrise ship here?”
