One day after setting sail, the ship sailed into a reef area.

For safety reasons, the pace of progress slowed down.

"Ah, Master, it is the Thursar River."

Wu Yue said, pointing to the river estuary in the distance.

"Well, it's about time."

South of the city of Sesar, and also south of the Death Canyon, there is a vast wasteland.

There are no cities or villages, only sparse vegetation, scattered barbarians, and the occasional centaur galloping across the plains.

"Look, Beorra, this is the address of the new city you imagined...how is it?"

Kelulu asked.

"It's really not as good as I expected..."

"It's not like there wasn't a city here before... but because of the emergence of the Sea of ​​Divine Punishment, the seat of government, Dans, was separated. This place is also remote and has a bad climate, so it naturally became a wasteland over time."

Sophia explained.

"Is that why the city of Sesar has become what it is now?" Wu Yue asked.

It was supposed to be a transportation hub between the capital of the kingdom, Mel City, and the largest city in the south, Dansers, but it became devastated by natural disasters and became the kingdom's food base and a gathering place for veterans...

No matter what, the civilization created by humans is still too fragile in the face of disasters.

......

"Woo--Woo--"

A deep and low cry came from somewhere, echoing over the sea.

"what is that?"

"Eslan Behemoth means 'lonely island'." Bai Ye said.

I also heard this name from the conversation between Eve and her servant...

It's actually an oversized whale... or a sea god's heir...

As he was speaking, a towering column of water rose from the sea, and the body of the giant beast gradually emerged from the water.

"I didn't expect to see such a big creature in the Sea of ​​Divine Punishment..." Beora said.

"Beora, is this creature rare?"

"It is indeed rare... If you are lucky, you can only see one or two in the open sea. It has no special abilities except that it is a little bigger. It is not even a monster... So... it is easy to be hunted... Maybe this one was driven into the Sea of ​​God's Punishment?"

"...Uh...So, it might be being chased by something?"

As he was speaking, the calm sea surface behind the giant beast suddenly became agitated, and a huge mouth like the abyss suddenly opened and bit off the body of the giant beast in one bite...

Even though it was so far away, the huge waves created by the thing still affected the ship, and the hull began to shake violently.

Everyone finally stood firm, and Beorra said with some fear:

"Oh my god...what is this? I'm scared to death..."

Under that huge mouth, even the huge body of the Eslan beast was split in two...

"It's probably some kind of sea dragon... What does it eat... to grow so big..." Ke Lulu said, adjusting her crooked hat.

"Well... isn't it obvious what you're eating?"

"Once the dragon race disappeared, have these sub-dragon species evolved into this..."

Bai Ye muttered to himself.

Just like the giant earth dragon in the Death Valley, without the suppression of the dragon clan, these sub-dragon species are growing bigger and bigger...

However, no matter how big a sub-dragon is, it is still just a sub-dragon after all, without the pure blood and powerful strength of a real dragon...

"Come to think of it, will this guy come and attack our ship..."

Beorra stared blankly at the blood spreading across the sea in the distance...

"Don't be such a pessimist, Beora... Although this thing probably won't get close to the sea..."

"This lady is right. Longka is a frequent visitor to the southern waters of the Sea of ​​Divine Punishment. As long as you don't provoke her, she will ignore you..."

The captain appeared at the stern of the ship at some point.

"Captain has changed his face..."

"Ah... I was blind at first. If I had known earlier..."

"Hey, stop, stop, stop. I don't want to hear your nonsense... Keep talking about that Longka. We are only interested in that."

"......yes......"

"Lonka is what we who sail on the sea all year round call her. It means 'whirlpool'... because when she eats, she always eats from the bottom up, which creates a huge whirlpool... I also said that as long as you don't mess with her, you will be safe."

"Wait a minute, why do you keep calling that guy 'she'?"

"... This... Because the old people in the industry have carried many desert tourists in the past, and those desert people boasted after drinking... Sorry, I shouldn't have sworn in front of you... Those desert people boasted that there was a giant dragon living in Muchashar... His huge body was buried deep under the yellow sand, and every time he turned over, a sandstorm that covered the sky would be set off. If someone offended his majesty, the tribe he was in would suffer a devastating disaster..."

"It sounds like something you would say to coax a child. No... it's too fake. I don't think a child would believe it..."

Ke Lulu pouted and said.

"We also thought it was fake, so the old veterans who sailed on the sea at that time made up a similar story after drinking too much... saying that there was also a huge sea dragon living in the Sea of ​​God's Punishment... It was even bigger than the Eslan beast. When the end of the world comes, it will come out of the Sea of ​​God's Punishment with huge waves and submerge everything on land..."

"Isn't this even more untrue? There has to be some logic when making up a story..."

"Sailors do like to brag when they are drunk... But it's different now. We have Longka. Her existence can fully prove the truth of this story... I mean to a certain extent... In short, Longka can be said to be our pride, allowing us to stand up to those desert people who eat sand..."

"What a strange desire to win..."

After hearing this, Beorra couldn't help but look down at the captain again.

"Eh? Then I have a question, Captain. What if the one in the desert is the real one?"

Elsa, who had been silent, spoke.

"What's your question? Even if it's true, it has nothing to do with us. Although the stories of those desert people sound plausible... at most it's just a larger dragon like Longka... can it cause a sandstorm? You don't really believe it, do you?"

"Ahahaha... Of course... I don't believe it... How could such a thing be possible..."

Feeling the captain's strange gaze, Elsa quickly replied.

In fact, for a moment, she actually believed it.

The captain, Elsa, and even Beorra treated the two stories as jokes after dinner.

But the others were lost in thought.

It would have been better if Elsa hadn't asked this question. Once she asked it, she would have thought of the huge monsters she had seen before... especially a giant bone wolf that could be called a "god" and could devour countless souls...

There are indeed supernatural and supernatural things in this world...

"Master, I seem to have heard in Moon's memory that there are indeed natural disasters in the desert that are enough to destroy an entire tribe. Could it be true..."

"Since we just saw a monster of that level... I believe that what those desert people said is true. Maybe the dragon in the desert is real, but controlling the weather in the desert? Impossible, otherwise it would be another Fenrir... If that were the case, it would have caused a world-destroying disaster like the one in the North, and it would not be limited to the desert..."
