Chapter 660 The Power of the Weather Lord (2)
The hurricane ahead was visibly growing larger, rolling forward along the sea surface, and even forming a strange spectacle of a 'dragon sucking water'!
Zhou Ning couldn't help but take a deep breath. Since he got the Sky King, he had only failed to adjust the weather once. The last time he passed through a long-term monsoon area at sea, he had also successfully adjusted it. However, the monsoon weather there was regional and the inertia was too strong, so he had to keep adjusting himself before giving up.
But this time it is obviously different, because the target of this Category 11 hurricane is not even here. It is just because the scale of the hurricane after it is formed is too large, and it inevitably causes terrible aftermath.
"Get down! Keep your body low and close to the deck!"
The meteorologists didn't bother adjusting to the rapidly developing rainstorm. Instead, they gave a quick warning and threw themselves to the ground without caring about their appearance. Compared to laymen, these meteorologists were more respectful of nature.
Suddenly, with a deafening roar, a huge bolt of lightning fell from the sky and headed straight for a ship behind him. In an instant, the sails caught fire and electric snakes began to scurry around on the ship.
Then, within the range visible to the naked eye, brilliant lightning bolts fell densely one after another, and in an instant, a forest composed purely of thunder and lightning formed in the sea ahead. The players on the boat looked at the raging hurricane outside, the huge waves, and the seemingly endless electric snakes, and felt their calves go weak, as if they had arrived at the end of the world in mythology and legend, and felt like they were personally participating in a fantasy thriller.
Several ships had been blown almost parallel to the sea surface by the strong wind and were in danger of capsizing. More and more players fell into the sea and turned into white light and flew away.
Zhou Ning saw with his own eyes the huge waves coming towards him one after another, and he suddenly felt a dark cloud pressing down on the city. He felt the strong wind raging in front of him. Two pirate ships on the safe route in the distance were sucked up by the hurricane and disintegrated in the air in an instant. Several pirates fell down with their hands and feet dancing, and a large amount of flesh and blood collapsed in the air.
This could already be called a natural disaster! This couldn't be just any ordinary disaster! Even the strongest of people wouldn't be able to face this kind of horrific disaster. Even safe routes weren't safe.
During this time, Zhou Ning tried to use the Heavenly King to change the weather many times, but it could only change the moment and not the trend. Although he managed to protect the nearby ships from being greatly affected, he also consumed a lot of his spiritual energy.
He was sure that this must be a demigod level, or even a power level above demigod level!
All of Zhou Ning's mystical abilities were focused on combat, and he could only protect himself, while his auxiliary abilities were still slightly insufficient.
But at some point, Meredith, wearing a black cloak and a black robe, appeared beside Zhou Ning, with a solemn expression on his face, he stretched out his palm and said:
"No storms allowed here!"
As His voice dissipated in the wind, a mysterious golden symbol rose from the sky, diffused in the air, and turned into a thin air shield that enveloped the outside of the fleet. The nearby space suddenly became blurred and distorted. Within the range of the air shield, the originally raging gale suddenly became quiet, and spread out in all directions as if against the laws of nature. In a flash, only whimpering sounds remained. At the same time, on the sea outside the fleet, the gale and thunder and lightning were still raging wildly.
This was the power of an angel. With a single command, she completely controlled the weather around the ship. When everything calmed down, Zhou Ning released his grip on the Heavenly King's right hand and quietly exhaled.
In terms of support, the Church of the God of War was truly absurdly strong. This journey would be a bit unlucky, but there was no fatal danger, so it was no wonder the dice rolled a 3. This was also the reason why he had not yet chosen to claim the mission reward.
At this time, Grantham was on a nearby boat. After seeing this scene, he cast a burning gaze at Meredith:
"I shouldn't be wrong this time. This NPC named Meredith is definitely stronger than Wayne Stewell. I said it last time that the optical computer would never arrange for a high-level NPC to appear in the plot for no reason."
Qingbai Yejiu, who was standing next to him, glanced at him sideways and said sarcastically, "I know what you mean. Wayne Stewell is dead, and Meredith becomes the new protagonist, right?"
Grantham sighed. "Use your brain. How could the new protagonist be from the Church of the God of War? The appearance of an angel-level NPC teammate like Meredith indicates that the power level of this mission has been raised again. Wayne Stewell is no longer invincible. He set a flag before, so his death is not surprising. The new protagonist must be either Hawkeye or Kelly."
"Yes, yes, yes, you have predicted so many times, which one was correct?" Qingbai Yejiu couldn't help laughing.
Grantham was suddenly speechless. Although he had always been confident in his guesses, it seemed that he had never guessed correctly when it came to Wayne Sternwell.
This is also the reason why he became the other party's little black.
"Your Majesty." The meteorologists around them rose from the ground and bowed their heads deeply, their expressions filled with piety. They were all professionals from the Church of the God of War, and after seeing Meredith, their reactions were not much better than Smith Hall's last time.
Meredith nodded to them calmly, not paying much attention to them, but staring closely at the scene outside.
"It's Valentine, the 'Weather Lord'. His target is not us. He just changed the weather in the surrounding seas, trying to destroy every ship nearby." Meredith said softly.
Zhou Ning: ???
If memory serves, this place is still about 240 nautical miles from Hood Island... I hadn't expected Valentine's influence on the weather to be so widespread. He also possessed the power to alter the weather, but I wondered if he was a shaman or a meteorologist. He was certain the power he displayed was far superior to that of a demigod.
But when Zhou Ning wanted to ask Meredith, he realized that she had disappeared from his sight again. She ran so fast. What kind of weird thing is this? Social anxiety?!
This astonishing hurricane lasted for about 40 minutes before slowly dissipating and disappearing into the distant sea. However, the rain did not stop, but instead showed a tendency to get heavier. It was then that several meteorologists demonstrated their usefulness. Scott, the leader, took a metal bar and paper, examined them, and said:
"The weather index in the nearby sea area will be relatively mild, and there won't be too many extreme weather events. We can take advantage of this opportunity to pass through as quickly as possible."
"Okay, Professor Scott." Captain Robinson nodded respectfully.
Meteorologists like Scott are invaluable in any adventure team.
As the ship continued to sail, Zhou Ning looked around and saw that everyone was busy, either operating the ship or cleaning the deck. Their faces more or less showed the expression of having survived a disaster. Zhou Ning did not choose to stay on the deck. He walked towards the cabin and sighed silently from the bottom of his heart:
"We've just entered the southern island chain, and we've already encountered such a large-scale meteorological disaster. It looks like the journey to Hood Island will definitely not be easy..."
But the moment he entered the cabin, he suddenly saw a pair of mysterious eyes hanging in the sky deep in the south of the foggy sea, looking down at the sea and the ocean currents.
These eyes had no eyelashes, their expression was indifferent, and they even made a brief eye contact with him.
It also lasted less than three seconds before disappearing, but it had caused a brief blank in his mind, and small scales appeared on the skin on the back of his hand.
