Chapter 2331 Problems in the Middle of the Voyage

After a few more days at sea, Minos and his crew finally encountered the first problem of their journey.

Sailing at the same speed they had been traveling since Oqia’s departure, the party encountered a gigantic sea creature in their path.

This creature was like the Kraken of the Spiritual World, but its body was the size of a dragon’s body, as big as a mountain!

When the captain saw the creature’s many arms, he stopped his boat and alerted the entire crew to the problem ahead.

Everyone on the boat was already aware of their surroundings, so they didn’t change their reactions. They just slightly shifted their focus.

As they did so, Minos saw that the giant creature was in the only safe place for them to pass through.

“Shit!” He muttered.

“What is it?” Ruth asked.

Minos said. “The damn thing is blocking the way. There’s no way forward without going through it.” “So what do we do?” One of the natives of the Spiritual World asked, worried.

He and the others could clearly sense that this was no ordinary creature. That was a level 115 Supreme monster!

“So what do we do?” One of the natives of the Spiritual World asked, worried.

He and the others could clearly sense that this was no ordinary creature. That was a level 115 Supreme monster!

The difference between a level 115 being and a level 114 was even greater than the difference between a level 100 and a level 99. As such, it would be impossible for them to survive if this creature attacked them!

The captain heard the comments not only from Minos’ companions but also from the Zocarro natives his crew was transporting and tried to reassure his group. “Do not despair! The monster in front of us doesn’t pay any attention to us. It seems to be laying eggs. If we stand still for a while, we might be able to get through this place safely when it leaves.”

All of the ship’s defenses and cloaking barriers were already active when he said that, but just in case, it was best for everyone to stay as still as possible and not move their energies around too much in their bodies.

‘Is the monster laying eggs? Isn’t that dangerous?’ Minos asked the captain mentally as his thoughts were transmitted to everyone on the ship.

‘No, it’s not that simple. It might make sense to you that a creature would become defensive and agitated at such a moment. But this monster isn’t intentionally laying eggs in this sea. It’s laying them in the nearby space rifts.’

‘Oh?’ Minos turned his eyes in the direction of the dangerous areas for his group.

Soon, he saw what the captain had just said.

The captain explained to the group, ‘I can’t tell you for sure what the purpose of this monster or others like it is. But it’s quite common for such creatures to lay eggs in space rifts.

I think their goal is to take their genes to distant places and spread their species.

Anyway, let’s keep quiet for now. Maybe we’ll be able to move in a few days.”

Everyone agreed in silence as they watched the magnificent creature in their path.

After 15 days of standing near the giant Kraken, the monster finally moved differently and quickly swam into the area’s depths.

Seeing this, the ship’s captain ordered his crew to move slowly.

As interesting as it would be to get out of there as quickly as possible, they had to do it carefully. ‘The monster is probably exhausted after expending its energy to lay so many eggs. But don’t underestimate it. If we show ourselves more than we should, it might decide to kill us.’ The captain commented in the minds of the creatures on his boat while the ship moved so slowly that a person walking could outpace it.

After 15 minutes, the boat had tripled its speed, while the giant creature’s aura had almost disappeared.

“We barely escaped this time.” The captain commented to his crewmates as they returned to cruising speed for the journey.

Meanwhile, his customers couldn’t help but sigh, feeling a little relieved after being within range of a creature capable of killing them all.

But as they set sail again, Minos saw something swimming not far from them. “Don’t relax too soon. Something is coming towards us.”

The whole crew heard him and quickly shifted their senses to the underwater world, where creatures ten kilometers below them were swimming towards the surface at that very moment.

“You have senses much stronger than your level, alien boy.” The captain said with a satisfied tone. “These are really annoying creatures. However, they’re not fast enough to catch up with us at my ship’s top speed.

Thank you for warning me in time.”

The captain immediately began to accelerate, rapidly increasing the speed of his boat, while Minos continued to keep an eye on the strange creatures that had begun to follow them.

He soon realized that the previous situation had changed, and the creatures were getting further and further away from them.

He asked. ‘Isn’t it dangerous to travel so fast?’

‘It would be worse if they overtook us. Let me tell you, these monsters are much worse than the Kraken we saw earlier.

That Kraken was much stronger, but it was only interested in laying its eggs and returning to its territory to rest. But these creatures are coming right at us to devour our bodies!

Fortunately, my ship is faster than most of the creatures in this area. So if I can escape them in time, I always do what I have just done.’ The captain explained in Minos’ mind, seeing that this level 99 young man wasn’t weak.

‘But it’s really dangerous to travel that fast. I’ll be back to cruising speed in 10 minutes. That should be enough for those monsters to give up on us.’

‘Hmm, that makes sense. They’re already giving up.’ Minos commented, understanding the difficulty of this task.

‘I hope you’ll keep an eye out for those monsters on the way. I know the way to the Gunaway Refuge well, so I’m sure I can speed up my boat a bit if necessary.’

‘I’ll do what’s necessary.’ Minos readily agreed.

After these problems, the group would be able to travel for the next two weeks without encountering similar situations. There would be dangers in the coming days. Still, they would be associated with extreme phenomena that were dangerous but wouldn’t intentionally pursue anyone.

The dangers they would face during these days would be difficult, but not so much as to endanger the crew.

So, they would continue with their goal of reaching the island north of Zocarro.
