Familiar dark clouds gathered overhead, the gale swept across the sea surface, and layers of huge waves ran rampant everywhere without any pattern.
Continuous rain fell, wetting the deck in a short while—the storm had favored this sea area once again under Drake's call.
"So, the ship crashed onto our heads before because it was flying like this?"
Euryale pointed at the sky, her heart pounding, and the corners of her eyes twitching involuntarily.
This is too crazy!
She, an ordinary Goddess, couldn't handle this.jpg.
"Absolutely! Don't worry about safety; we are all veterans. We know all too well whether this method works or not!"
Drake gave Euryale a thumbs up.
Seeing this, Asterios also followed suit with a simple and honest smile, giving a thumbs up.
Although he didn't know why they were giving thumbs up, this action was a good gesture, so he did what others did.
"Anyway, we are about to take off. Hurry up and find something to hold onto, otherwise you might be thrown out later!"
Drake said, pointing towards the other pirates.
The pirates' movements were extremely skilled. In a short while, they each found a suitable place to stay.
"Boss is right; I almost got thrown off last time..."
A pirate recalled the state at that time and couldn't help shivering.
Having learned his lesson, this time he even found a rope to tie himself to the ship.
Euryale, taking all this into her eyes, held her forehead and sighed.
No choice. She was already on the ship; what else could she do but be crazy with them?
"Asterios, hold onto me tightly."
Euryale turned to look at the little bull, saying with a gentle gaze.
"Mmh, I will protect, Eury!"
Asterios said firmly.
Everyone on the ship was ready for the impact. Those who needed to pray had finished praying, waiting to take off again.
A dozen seconds passed.
The ship showed no sign of taking off.
Everyone finally realized something was wrong.
The sails had long been blown full by the wind, and creaking sounds were even coming from the masts.
According to their previous experience, at this level, they should have flown up long ago.
Takumi hurriedly ran to the side of the ship to observe, braving the wind, rain, and waves slapping onto the deck.
Only then did he realize with a start that the entire ship seemed to be pressed onto the sea level by some force. The wind force that could originally carry the ship into the air ended up only spinning the ship wildly around the center point.
"No good! We can't fly this time!"
Under the storm, Takumi roared to convey his voice to the others on the ship.
Hearing this, Euryale looked solemnly at the surrounding magic circle and finally understood all its effects.
"...I see—this magic circle trapping us also has an anti-air effect. We can only think of other ways!"
On the other side.
"As expected, they indeed thought of escaping from the sky! Too bad we anticipated it long ago—hahaha!"
Jason looked at the weather that suddenly turned into a storm and laughed maniacally.
"But this is also intelligence brought back by Lord Hector. So, Master, could I ask you to find a suitable place to move our great hero?"
"In this kind of weather, even if not injured, it would be uncomfortable."
Medea maintained her spellcasting state, feeling the wet clothes sticking to her body due to the rain, feeling indescribably uncomfortable in her heart, and couldn't help frowning.
"If you could have thought of me earlier, Uncle would be quite happy..."
Hector, who had hidden in the cabin as soon as he noticed the weather was wrong, complained silently.
"See? A great hero is a great hero; he doesn't need me at all."
Jason shrugged at Medea.
"The most important thing now is to crush that rabble quickly, then take away my Euryale!"
Then Jason clenched his fist and waved it forcefully forward, his eyes full of excitement.
He could already imagine himself obtaining boundless divine power after completing all tasks.
For the vision in his heart, Jason controlled the Argo to break through the storm without hesitation, marching towards the Golden Wild Hunt.
Back to this side.
"F*ck! We've already used this method to escape, yet it's still so tricky?"
Drake, steering the Golden Wild Hunt spinning in place, was also dizzy.
Don't misunderstand; she wasn't dizzy from anger, but from spinning.
After all, she normally didn't experience staying on the Golden Wild Hunt spinning at this speed.
So did Drake run out of ways to escape now?
Just kidding. Drake might lack other things, but she never lacked ideas!
After spinning a few times on this ship, a brilliant and exciting idea appeared in her head.
"My Goddess-sama, since the top is blocked, is the bottom blocked?"
Drake asked Euryale.
And pointed her finger downwards.
Euryale observed the surroundings and shook her head, her expression slightly puzzled.
"It isn't. Why do you ask?"
Euryale didn't understand, but Takumi understood instantly.
Knowing Drake's idea, he could only force a bitter smile.
If we use this method, isn't it trusting me a bit too much?
"Mimi!I t's all up to you next!"
Drake saw at a glance that Takumi had guessed her idea, so she grinned and gave Takumi a thumbs up.
"I'll try my best."
No choice. At a time like this, Takumi could only gamble again.
Takumi planted the flag on the deck. Golden light surged across the deck like a tide, wrapping the entire ship within it in less than two seconds.
—And forming a sphere.
While maintaining the defense, Takumi nodded to Drake.
"Good! This time we'll play something more exciting. Everyone hold onto the ship properly; maybe you'll be thrown off too!"
Seeing this, Drake took out the Holy Grail again, starting to utilize the miracle power of the Holy Grail.
The crowd, who hadn't reacted yet, was a bit confused but still obediently held onto things that could secure their bodies.
Before long, everyone discovered that the amplitude of the ship's rotation was getting larger and larger, and more and more ferocious.
After a large amplitude swing, some people who saw the shape of the sea surface were suddenly filled with shock in their eyes.
It was a whirlpool!
A huge whirlpool, a whirlpool large enough to swallow an entire warship!
Everyone finally understood Drake's idea.
"Boss... do you mean—we are going into the sea?"
Bessie asked with a trembling voice.
"Mm-hmm."
Drake smiled without denying it.
"Didn't you say it too? Our Golden Wild Hunt has been to the sky and the land. Here, we're about to complete the set."
"You should know that driving a ship into the sea is no less exciting than going to the sky!"
