Apocalyptic Starship

Chapter 495: Storm at Sea

The Pacific Ocean is huge. It takes several days to fly across the boundless ocean at the speed of a helicopter.

The flight day and night is getting closer and closer to the west coast of the Eagle Empire. That night, a storm and heavy rain suddenly blew on the sea. At the beginning, it was still able to continue flying in the lightning and heavy rain. Rain kept sliding off the fuselage and the cockpit glass. The propeller stirred the airflow to turn the rain into water mist. After flying for a distance in the dark, the storm became bigger and bigger and even made the Rubik's Cube sway. The wave height had reached ten meters. In desperation, the Rubik's Cube had to make an emergency landing on the sea surface and then sank into the sea water after deformation to avoid the wind and waves.

The sea surface was stormy and thundering, but it was very quiet underwater. The Rubik's Cube, which had turned into a Transformer, started the thrusters and continued to move slowly in the lightning.

The sea surface in the distance.

A fishing boat was floating on the sea and rising and falling with the huge waves. The weak lights on the boat flickered in the storm. It was very close to the west coast. It was probably some fishermen who came to fish because of the bad environment and insufficient food production. As a result, the meteorological department was completely paralyzed and could not predict the climate, so they were unlucky to encounter the storm.

"Dad! Look ahead..."

"I saw it, don't be afraid, son. Your dad used to smoke cigars in the wind and waves. Think about your grandfather and great-grandfather fishing in such weather, you should be proud."

The white man with a full beard laughed, but the young man next to him rolled his eyes. The young man was not interested in what his grandfather or great-great-grandfather did. The cabin was leaking everywhere, and the cold rain and waves kept splashing on his body. If he hadn't drunk some wine, he would have been frozen sick. While praying that the storm would pass quickly, the young man fastened himself to the cabin with a belt.

Rumble...!

A flash of lightning fell from the sky into the sea, illuminating the nearby area in an instant and then falling into darkness in the blink of an eye.

The small fishing boat rose and fell in the waves as if it could sink into the sea at any time, but it was not damaged at all. The bearded man's boat driving skills were obviously very skilled.

The young man who was looking around suddenly found that there seemed to be something in the sea water. While the waves were changing, he stretched his head out and stared at the thing carefully. It turned out to be... a pair of glowing eyes!

"Ah..."

The young man thought he had encountered the legendary sea monster. A few days ago, several neighbors were swallowed by the sea monster under everyone's gaze. The terrible scene has been hidden deep in the young man's mind. The moment he saw those eyes, the deep-buried memory came to his mind. In a panic, he quickly retreated into the cabin, but he didn't notice that the belt buckle that fixed him was loosening...

"Benny! What's wrong with you?"

The bearded man asked loudly.

"Sea... sea monster..."

"Sea monster?"

Suddenly, the whole fishing boat tilted and shook violently. At this time, the belt buckle fell off, and the violent shaking threw the young man Benny into the sea...

"No...!"

The bearded man reached out to grab his son's waving arm, but he missed his son's hand by a little bit. It was as if time slowed down. He watched his son waving his arms and falling into the sea with a blank look in his eyes. At this moment, the old fisherman's heart was about to break. Benny was his last relative in the world. If he fell into the water in a stormy weather, he would disappear in the dark sea in an instant. Falling into the water meant death.

"Benny...!"

The bearded man hurriedly untied his belt and came to the side of the boat, but he could not see anything in the dark waves. There was no other sound besides the sound of wind and waves.

In the stormy waves, a young man was struggling desperately in the sea far away from the small fishing boat, but he could not swim in the chaotic waves and could only go with the flow. Gradually, the young man's movements became slower and slower. If he did not get out of the water, he might drown soon. When he drank a belly full of seawater and his mind was blurred, a flash of lightning illuminated the sea. The young man vaguely saw a huge metal object with two bright eyes swimming towards him in the distance. Finally, before he fell into darkness, he saw a huge mechanical hand...

The Rubik's Cube lurking in the sea reached out and grabbed the drowning human, quickly floated to the surface of the sea so that the drowning human could contact the air, and at the same time, the mechanical fingers rhythmically pressed on his stomach and lungs. Since the drowning time was not too long, the young man quickly vomited a lot of seawater and resumed breathing after coughing a few times.

"Ahem... vomit..."

Another pool of digestive fluid and seawater mixture was spit on the Rubik's Cube's mechanical hand. The Rubik's Cube was always very disgusted with digestive fluid that could corrode the metal body, so it simply sank the mechanical hand and washed the digestive fluid with seawater. This scared the young man a lot.

After struggling to raise his head, the young man who regained consciousness was surprised to see what was in front of him with the help of lightning. It was clearly a huge metal mechanical face! The eyes revealed a mysterious blue light and he was lying on its mechanical hand. What was this? Alien Transformers? It saved me...

"Thank you... ahem..."

"Nothing, it's just that the small fishing boat was pushed too fast by the wind and waves. If you want to get back on the boat, it may take a while, but you'd better not get your digestive juices out, it will make me feel very uncomfortable."

The young man nodded blankly. The storm continued. The rain and waves fell on his body and felt very cold. However, the young man could see that the giant Transformer was struggling to stay afloat in the huge waves. Naturally, he was embarrassed to bring up the unimportant topic of being cold. In this way, the Rubik's Cube carried the white boy and kept chasing the fishing boat.

It was hard to tell how long the storm would last, but fortunately, the waves and storm gradually weakened after about an hour. The shivering young man watched the fishing boat approaching, and the feeling of coming back from the dead was really amazing.

The sky gradually brightened.

On the fishing boat, the bearded man shouted and knelt beside the boat and cried loudly. The two beggar-like crew members behind him were also in a heavy mood. There was no other way except to let the old man vent the pain of losing his son. One of the long-haired big men walked to the bearded man and patted him on the shoulder, intending to say something comforting. Suddenly, his eyes widened as he stared at the dark sea before dawn.

"The sea monster is coming!"

The bearded man remembered that his son seemed to have said something about seeing a sea monster before falling into the sea. Yes! It must be that sea monster that caused his son to fall into the sea! In anger, he ran into the cabin and took out three shotguns, one for each of them, and pointed the gun at the dark sea. Soon, a pair of eyes-like lights attracted the attention of the three people.

"Dad! Don't shoot! I'm Benny!"

"Benny?"

The bearded man put down his shotgun in a daze. Was it his son who just called him?
