Under the command of the whip in Lauder's hand, the sailors got up with the last glimmer of hope. The sail rope was tensioned, the noose kept turning, and the canvas made of camel hide was lifted up. These canvas made of camel hide was very tough, enough to withstand the heavy rain and wind.
The rest of the crew threw all the cargo piled up on the deck off the ship to reduce the weight of some sailboats.
Lauder watched the cargo of the whole ship being thrown off the water one by one. His heart was bleeding, but there was nothing he could do. His life was always more important.
The roaring, strong wind and rolling water make the huge sail warship look like a fallen leaf that will overturn at any time. The ship keeps shaking, as if it will sink into the sea bottom in the next second.
Lynn's response is also very simple. It is an extremely sophisticated operation to adjust the angle of the sail and balance the hull by using the strong wind. Fortunately, the sailors on the ship, although they don't know what aerodynamics is, have decades of sailing experience and barely maintain the situation.
Under the control of Lynn, the warship turned slowly and moved at full speed in the direction of the current
"Master wizard, can you make a mistake? There is the big whirlpool!" Lauder, who just let the sailors take action, turned his head and looked at the direction, and the whole person was scared out of his wits.
Are they going to escape from the maelstrom, or are they going to die?
He now believes the words of the helmsman, and the other party doesn't understand the ship at all!
"Of course I know there is a big vortex, and what we need to borrow is the power of the Eye of Death!" Lynn said solemnly.
The sailing speed of the sailing warship is only seven knots, and it is almost impossible to break away from the suction of the vortex. The only way is to make the warship's forward direction parallel to the direction of the current rolling, circle the big vortex half a circle, and finally speed up with the powerful centrifugal force!
In fact, Lynn doesn't have any experience in sailing ships, but he has been tested for starship driving and knows how to use the gravity of the planet for reverse acceleration. The principles of both sides are similar.
In short, it is to rush in first and then be thrown out!
Lynn gave a very brief explanation, but Lloyd didn't understand a word, just vaguely felt that it was very reasonable.
"We must be crazy!" Lauder muttered to himself. He never thought that one day he would sail into the whirlpool!
Except for Lauder, the other sailors soon found that the ship's heading was wrong, but they didn't even have time to despair, because several sail ropes on the deck could not withstand the strong wind and broke directly!
In such a critical situation, the only way to avoid affecting the navigation of the warship is to force the sail rope to be tightened temporarily by manpower.
Lynn constantly adjusted the rudder, accompanied by a violent and temporary shock, the hull suddenly tilted to the right, and then stabilized again. The surging sea water drove the sailboat forward at full speed, and it was very determined to rush towards the big vortex.
A deafening muffled sound came from the distance of the sea, just like thunder rising from the ground. In the thin black fog, a corner of the vortex soon appeared in front of everyone.
It looks like a huge, numbing funnel on the sea. A huge amount of sea water is constantly pouring into the bottomless abyss. At the bottom of the vortex, it is dark and cold, emitting a frightening smell, and you can't see what is hidden at the bottom
Looking at the maelstrom of terror, Lauder's face turned pale, the sailors' reaction was even worse, and many people were even talking nonsense.
"Mom, I've come to see you..."
"It's a star, I see a star!"
……
Lynn vaguely noticed something was wrong. The big vortex called the Eye of Death seemed to be able to affect people's spirit. It seemed that this thing was not a natural phenomenon caused by ocean currents or gravitational tides.
We must leave here as soon as possible
But now the speed seems to be a little worse!
"Fireball, seven o'clock!" Lynn shouted, to avoid Jonny's incomprehension, and specifically pointed out the direction.
The gray haired girl immediately understood and urged [Magic Hand]. A huge fireball immediately gathered in the palm of her hand and threw it to the rear of the sail warship.
Lynn also made the same action at this time. Two huge fireballs collided, and the strong shock wave made the ship creak, but the impact also made the speed of the warship increase again!
The windsurfing battleship, which is constantly shaking, touches the edge of the maelstrom very dangerously and rushes out at a speed several times faster than usual under the action of the powerful centrifugal phenomenon!
At the same time, the loud noise also woke up Lauder and others, allowing them to get rid of the spiritual influence of the maelstrom, and saw that the extremely horrible "abyss mouth" was far away from them, and the faces of all people showed the expression of survival.
After a brief calm, eager cries broke out on the deck, and everyone was venting their joy of escaping from death.
"It's amazing that we really escaped from the vortex!"
"It must be a miracle!"
"When we get ashore, we will get married immediately. We can't wait any longer!"
……
All the crew members were excited to celebrate, and the two bearded uncles hugged each other directly.
"Chief mate, when we get through this sea area, let's take out all the wine I have collected and let us celebrate." Lauder's hands and feet were trembling, but when he saw such a hilarious scene, he said generously.
"But, Lord Lauder..." The chief mate at one side stopped, and then said carefully. "Your case of wine has just been dropped by us..."
Lauder's expression immediately froze, and endless grief flooded his heart. Most of the treasures he had accumulated over the years were stored in wooden boxes on the deck, and now they are gone!
Lauder even had an idea to rush into the maelstrom and salvage all his money.
But it's a delusion after all
At the same time of heartache, Lauder did not forget the great hero who "conquered" the Eye of Death.
"Thank you very much, Master Wizard, you saved all of us! If you have any errands in the future, please feel free to order..." Lauder looked at Lynn, reached out and took off his hat, put it on his chest, bowed and saluted.
The noisy deck suddenly became extremely quiet. The sailors and boatmen present made the same action as Lauder, which was the highest respect of the sailors.
So after the harbor battle, if they were extremely afraid of Lynn, the wizard, that would be their respect from the bottom of their hearts.
Everyone has just experienced the power and terror of the Eye of Death. Naturally, Lynn, who led himself to escape from the pursuit of the god of death, is extremely grateful and convinced.
"What should I do next? Please continue your instructions!"
