Extraordinary Sailing (Extraordinary Voyage)

Chapter 283: 1 trigger!

"Look! The tide is low, so many fish!"

Someone in the crowd on the beach suddenly yelled, which instantly interrupted the youth's thoughts.

Looking up and seeing the tide retreating rapidly, the beach instantly became extremely vast. There are countless marine fish, starfish, seashells, and crabs that have stayed on the beach because of the low tide.

call

"Come on! Get it!"

Tourists who were still playing on the beach rolled up their sleeves and rushed to the beach.

Even a lot of gentlemen in high-end formal attire who are obviously wealthy also joined the group. Fish may not be worth much, but just like when fishing, they enjoy the process of catching and the joy of harvest.

"Quick! Cork, there's another one behind you."

"Mary, what do you think I caught? A big lobster, great! Let's make cheese baked lobster at noon."

""

The beach instantly turned into a sea of ​​celebration, and everyone was enjoying the "feast" generously gifted by the sea.

They didn't even notice that the seabirds who were hovering in the nearby sky suddenly became a mess, and then suddenly fluttered their wings to fly inland.

Animals in human captivity in the city also screamed frantically, breaking free and rushing out.

"It seems that the time of low tide today is much earlier?"

A middle-aged captain of the City Guards who was on duty today by the shore took a brass pocket watch from his arms and looked at the time in confusion.

Today’s low tide is at least an hour earlier than yesterday, and the magnitude is unprecedented. Even the rock base of the lighthouse is completely exposed.

"strange!"

After living in Nisk for so long, the captain saw this for the first time.

suddenly.

There was a legend in his mind that he had heard from a retired old sailor, and all the strange signs in front of him were completely consistent with that legend.

Looking into the distance, hoping that he had guessed wrong, he couldn't help but speak in horror, and even his voice almost changed the tone: "Don't go! Come back soon! It's the tsunami!"

However, his reminder had come too late, and a white waterline appeared in the distant horizon, like thousands of galloping white horses, already roaring in the blink of an eye.

Except for a small number of experienced sailors on the shore, they have already begun to retreat early. Most tourists are immersed in the joy of the harvest. They have already penetrated the exposed beaches, not realizing that the devastating disaster is close at hand.

Rumbling

It wasn't until a huge roar that couldn't be ignored sounded in their ears that they, who lowered their heads to pick up seafood, suddenly realized that the huge shadow cast by the water wall that covered the sun had completely enveloped them.

Without giving them any time to react, the wall of water smashed down heavily.

"Do not!!!"

The dreams and future of the rich, the poor, parents, children, brothers, sisters, and all of them were smashed to pieces in an instant!

In addition, in addition to the high speed of the tsunami, the second characteristic is that there is almost no loss of energy in the process of transmission.

In the far sea, the wave height may be only a few meters. When it reaches the shallow coastal waters, the wavelength decreases and the wave height increases sharply, reaching tens of meters, forming a "water wall" containing huge energy.

At this time, even if the "tsunamis" collectively produced by hundreds of sea monsters are not comparable to the true natural disasters in nature, when they reach the shore, they grow from the initial 1 meter to the terrifying 30 meters!

Accompanied by a loud thunderous sound.

The 30-meter-high huge wave swallowed everything on the beach, including the commercial port not far away.

Wow

After that, he crossed the coastline and entered Nisk, the water city, swiftly attacking the entire city. Bridges collapsed, houses collapsed, and residents among them disappeared completely in the huge waves only when they screamed.

You know, as a city almost half-built above the water, even the tallest building in the city is not thirty meters high!

However, it is not without exception.

The only place close to the coast that can survive the tsunami is the sanctuary "St. Mark's Church" blessed by the "Goddess of Kingship and Navigation", where the priests and people who happened to take shelter here were also spared at this time. difficult.

There is nowhere else to go, and the former "Harpoon" whaling ship first officer Fisher and the gambler Pips have been borrowed here for free for a long time.

"God! Is this a divine punishment?"

The young chief mate with a lot of vicissitudes on his face, looking at the huge waves passing by, has been destroyed by the white whale, and his empty heart, as if filled with something else.

When others fell under the image of the goddess and thanked the gods, he muttered to himself: "If people have such power, they won't suffer any more, right?"

at the same time.

In the face of such overwhelming natural disasters, the naval port built on the Cape Mountain is of course impossible to be spared. The two cruise ships mooring in the port hit the turbulent water wall head-on. Then, all the facilities and buildings on the port were completely swept away under the looting of violent waves.

If it happens to be the turn of the "Storm Horn" today or if it arrives in Hong Kong half a day earlier, it will definitely not escape this tragic ending!

Although the port was destroyed, the bastion built on the **** persisted in the tsunami.

The 1,000 garrisons stationed in it should be grateful to the craftsmen for not cutting corners when building the bastion.

The stone bastion with a total height of more than 36 meters withstood the baptism of the tsunami, especially the solid fort **** structure with a height of 20 meters on the first floor, which greatly alleviated the impact of the tsunami.

clang! clang! clang!

In the continuous alarm bells, Major General Coverdale's figure is not tall, but like a reef that has survived wind and rain on the beach, but still stands for thousands of years.

He stood at the top of the bastion, the cloak on his body hunting in the high winds that accompanied the tsunami.

The successive three waves of huge waves have come to an end, and the sea has slowly receded from both sides of the bastion, but the major general's now tenacious steel-like heart can't help trembling now.

The knight's keen eyesight allowed him to see the devastation of "Nisco" after the tsunami. The low terrain and the vertical and horizontal waterways provided excellent conditions for the tsunami to exert its power.

After three huge waves attacked, 60% of the entire water city has become an underwater city.

The casualties among them are countless.

The corpses are everywhere, tragic

But the disaster at the mouth of the "Leiden River" has only just begun.

Roar

hiss

The deafening beast roared, making those who survived finally fall into despair. Those are the five large species that were left behind by Hakkinste and seized the entrance to the sea to ensure their escape!

In fact, when the first wave of tsunami came, the estuary of the "Leiden River" between the north and south capes was the center of the disaster.

Major General Coverdale watched with his own eyes hundreds of huge sea monsters pouring inland from here on the turbulent waves and upstream along the wide Leiden River.

Even the pirate throne ship with obvious characteristics followed behind the sea monster and swaggered into the inland river by the skyrocketing water level in the river!

But as Ivan expected, even if the major general is a Tier 3 knight, even if there are more than a thousand defenders stationed in the bastion, what is it to stop a tsunami?

Major General Coverdale finally understood, just like Irving, why the Pirate King didn't care at all about revealing the location of his action in advance.

Because he holds the absolute "potential"!

Under this circumstance, as long as Tier 4 does not emerge, there will be all kinds of chicken under the tsunami.

He could only issue a warning at the first time to inform the city of Harkins along the rear of the attack.

In particular, "Golden Lion City" and "Brandenburg" in addition to issuing warnings, also used terns to transmit critical information.

Fluttering

Watching the messaging terns rising into the sky.

He only hopes that the meandering waterways of the "Leiden River" can gradually offset the potential energy of the tsunami, and when the water flow recedes, these sea monsters that seem to be launching a "suicidal" charge will be trapped on the shallow river bed by themselves.

It's good that they are the "masters" of the sea, but the land is never their hunting ground! This attack method will inevitably cause the sea monster army to pay a heavy price!

However, the major general does not know if things will develop as he expected.

He only knew that for the citizens who lost their lives in the tsunami, he had to guard the bastion and completely block the entrance to the sea, so that the sea monsters who might return here and the crazy pirate king had no return!

"Summoning the ‘Cape Storm’ and the ‘Royal Guard’ will immediately return for help!"

According to the cruise plan ~lightnovelpub.net~, if there is no accident, the "Cape Storm" should be close to reaching the port at this time, and the "Royal Guard" has just set off on another route and should not be too far from the military port.

As for other warships, it is useless to come back.

He did not notice.

Fluttering

Before the garrison released the terns, from the high ground near the entrance to the sea, two dark shadows shot into the sky and flew up the river valley.

Obviously, the tsunami incursions are not only warning signs, but also action signals from unknown forces.

However, even if Major General Coverdale noticed, he no longer has the energy to be nosy, because the battle belonging to the "bastion" is already on the verge!

Patter

hiss! hiss!
