Sword and Sorcery and Martial Arts

Chapter 97
"You didn't sleep well last night, and you stayed here blowing the wind all night?" Baron asked, leaning on the side of the boat.

"Yes, we still have one less person to participate in the competition, so where should we find it?" Rhodes yawned.

"Don't worry, it will definitely be very lively when we arrive in Gulfstream City. We might meet a few acquaintances, and we'll just find them to form a team." Baron replied.

"Then pray that we can meet someone you know there." Rhodes said listlessly.

Baron looked at the very tired Rhodes, and said
"I really don't understand why you don't sleep at night and go to sleep during the day."

"I don't know either. I just had insomnia yesterday. You want to know why such a person would ask Quentin."

"Who is Quentin?" Baron asked suspiciously.

"It's the captain of this ship." Rhodes replied.

"I don't like him," said Baron. "Is there such a thick fog on the river last night?"

Rhodes looked around with wide eyes. There was a thick fog around the ship, blocking the light of the moon.

"There was no such fog yesterday." Rhodes replied, he didn't think it was fog.In his impression, the fog always rises in the morning, and the fog will disappear when the sun appears at noon, unless it is raining, but these days are sunny.

He generally believes that the fog that has not dissipated at night is smog. There is no industrial pollution in this world, and there is no coal burning in summer to cause smog. So what is this smog?
The last time he encountered such a thick fog was in the forest above the tomb of the sealed dragonman, what happened this time?

"I'll ask Quentin, he should know what's going on." Rhodes said to Baron.

Rhodes saw Quentin sitting in the crowd eating and drinking while he was eating just now, and he probably had almost eaten by now, and he was about to go to the deck soon.

Rhodes returned to the cabin, just in time to meet Quentin who was holding a wine jug with a satisfied expression on his face.

"Why is it still foggy at night?" Rhodes asked suspiciously.

"Isn't it normal for such a big river to have fog?" Quentin said naturally.

"But the fog seems to be getting thicker and thicker, and the visibility is estimated to be only 20 meters. We don't need to stop?" Rhodes asked again.

"What is visibility?" Quentin asked Rhodes back.

"Forget it, it's okay. You'd better go up and have a look yourself." Rhodes said helplessly.

With doubts, Quentin came to the deck.He looked around in panic, and shouted

"Stop the boat! Why didn't you notify me of this situation?"

"It's all right, captain, I have good eyesight and can see." Said a young crew member who was steering.

"Stop!" Quentin yelled again.

Seeing Quentin like this, the sailors on the deck took action and began to climb up the mast to furl up the sails, and one crew member ran to the cabin to tell the sailors below to stop rowing.

"You guys are too brave. Our boat is so fast, what if we collide with someone else's boat?" Quentin said loudly, but he didn't look angry.

"But it's not safe to stop in the middle of the river like this." Said the crew member who just took the helm.

"Come down, let me do it, I'll pull the boat to a stop." Quentin said as he walked towards the rudder, "Go ask those below who are full to stop stopping completely, keep rowing, Wait until I stop."

"Actually, now we can light more lights to let other ships notice us and avoid us." The crew member suggested.

"It's a good idea." Quentin nodded.

When the sailors who had just furled the sails heard it, they ran to the cabin to get oil lamps and light them.

Baron folded his arms and watched Quentin calmly control the rudder with great interest.

"Where is Hamer, why didn't I see him during the meal?" Rhodes walked over and asked.

"He was a little seasick and vomited for a day, but now he's better and resting on the bed." Baron replied.

"What about Michel?" Rhodes asked again.

"She's hiding in the room and doesn't know what she's doing."

"I think we'd better go down and have a look now, she is alone in the room in case someone pries her door." Rhodes was ready to go down after finishing speaking.

"No need." Baron stopped Rhodes, "She used some kind of spell on the door, and let me try it, anyway, if I empty-handed, it's hard not to open that door, unless I use an ax That door was smashed. But there was such a commotion that we could hear it from the deck."

Rhode felt relieved when he heard it, and said, "Why don't you drink alcohol today, you don't smell like alcohol."

Baron shook his head, "I don't think it's safe on the boat. After getting on the boat, I've always had a strange feeling in my heart."

"How does it feel?" Rhodes was curious.

"There may be danger to occur." Baron replied.

As soon as Baron's words fell, Rhodes felt the ship tremble violently, and he almost fell to the ground.

"Damn!" Rhodes heard Quentin's voice.

"What happened?" Rhodes looked around and found that their ship had collided with a ship.

The bow of a ship hit the other side of the flyer.

"How did you drive the boat?" A sailor said loudly to the boat.

The ship was a knot higher than the Flyer, and Rhodes and the others stood on the deck and couldn't see the situation on the ship clearly.

"Sorry!" Someone on that ship responded loudly, his voice was a little hoarse, and Rhodes felt like he was mocking.

"We are about to land, and you rushed over like this, almost crashing the boat, and you just said sorry?" the sailor shouted angrily.

"I said sorry not to your boat, but to you because this is the last time you will hear my apology," the man responded.

Rhodes woke up instantly after hearing this, and immediately took out the horizontal knife from the system, held it in his hand, and handed the ink Zen stick to Baron.

I didn't expect to be so unlucky, and I really encountered many river pirates that people who live on this river would never encounter in their lives.

Rhodes held the horizontal knife in his hand, and felt that the unlucky ones should actually be those river pirates. They didn't know what kind of people they had offended.

While he was thinking about this, many UFOs attacked from the air.

These things flew very fast, and under the cover of night and fog, Rhodes couldn't see what they were at all.

Moreover, these things are very powerful. When they fall on the deck, they will form a hole, and they will smash on the head of a sailor next to him, smashing his head.

"Hide first." Baron pulled Rhodes towards the cabin.

Baron waved his ink Zen stick to block all these things. It was a stone tied with a rope, and the person on the opposite side swung it quickly with the rope, and then threw it over.

Relying on the weight of the stone and the special throwing method, it is much more powerful than the bow and arrow.

Rhodes felt that he would definitely not be able to block these things with the Baihong swordsmanship, which was fast and powerful.

After running to the stairs leading to the cabin, Baron stopped the crew members who wanted to board the deck.

"After they finish throwing away, we'll go up and show these bastards a good look."
