Chapter 823: Chapter 822: Encounter with the Overlord
Yan Er had just started speaking when everyone felt the ship tremble, as if something had bumped into it.
“What’s going on? The rain has stopped.” Everyone instinctively looked out the window.
No one had time to respond before the tower ship was lifted by something.
“Ahhhh!”
Screams erupted one after another.
Wufu’s expression changed, and he grabbed the backpack on the floor, shouting, “Everyone be careful…”
“Oh my God, what is that?”
Those standing inside the cabin felt the ship being lifted up and fell over one after another.
“Wufu.” Ah Jiu held Wufu’s hand.
The ship was already tilting from high to low, and everyone had slipped to the ground. Wufu clung to the window, peeked out, and his mouth twitched as he cursed, “Damn it!”
Going through a storm was bad enough, and they had barely survived it, but it didn’t get any worse than this. No one would have guessed where their ship had ended up.
“What… what is that?” Ah Jiu also saw the smooth, blue-gray surface.
“Whale, a blue whale.”
Wufu was on the verge of tears. Who the hell said protagonists always had smooth sailing? This storm was one thing, but why did a whale have to surface just below their ship?
Yes, the ship was being lifted was the work of this blue whale. It wanted to jump, to be free and unrestrained!
Creaaak, creeeak.
The sound of the ship dismantling echoed clearly through everyone’s eardrums. The ship body was getting higher and higher, everyone was clinging tightly to something inside the cabin, their faces pale, the feeling of weightlessness was terrifying beyond belief.
“Miss?”
“Everyone, save yourselves.” Wufu shouted, “If you fall into the water, grab onto anything that floats.”
The blue whale is the largest ruler of the ocean. Just now, when she glanced down, she couldn’t see its head at all. Who knew if the one below was an adult? Even if it wasn’t fully grown, its destructive power was enough to intimidate them like ants.
She suddenly remembered Ah Jiu. While tending to his wounds earlier, she had removed his life jacket.
Wufu looked down and saw the life jacket just below, so she shouted, “Whoever can, grab it and use it for yourself.”
“Ah Jiu, hold onto me.” Wufu yelled again at Ah Jiu.
Ah Jiu was holding onto the window and hesitated upon hearing this.
“It can’t support two,” Ah Jiu said, looking at Wufu.
Wufu glared, “It’s okay, it will float.”
At this moment, the giant whale below had already lifted the ship to a ninety-degree angle, and it stood upright.
Screams continued to pierce through the air.
The ruler seemed enraged at its inability to jump smoothly, and with a strong thrust, its tail swung out forcefully.
Crash.
Some part of the ship was broken.
Rumble.
The entire ship flipped over, and the ear-shattering screams were instantly silenced.
Wufu had already leapt to embrace Ah Jiu as the ship flipped, her eyes caught a glimpse of the swaying blue-gray surface, long and enormous.
Inside the cabin, everyone was as frantic as could be. Wufu had Ah Jiu hug her and gestured to Yuan Ye and the others, pointing at the window, then pointing upwards.
The message was to swim out.
Yuan Ye and the others nodded one after another.
Wufu took Ah Jiu and was the first to squeeze out through the window, using one hand to paddle upwards with force, Yuan Ye and the rest followed behind.
She glanced down, good heavens, that whale had flipped the ship over and now dived beneath it again. Could it possibly be what she thought it was?
Before Wufu could be dumbfounded, the whale moved, and a gigantic wave crashed into them, scattering them apart, Wufu instinctively held onto Ah Jiu tightly.
