    In the bottom cabin, the seawater pouring in from the big hole has reached a considerable level, even submerging Anrui's chest.  The strong sea water hit An Rui's body hard. If he hadn't had a lot of strength, he would have been washed away by the current.  It seems that if we hold on for a while, we can get through this big hole and leave this precarious sailboat.  "Boom!" However, just as An Rui was thinking this, there was another loud noise above his head, and then the whole ship shook violently.  The ship seemed to have been attacked by magic again, and it was unknown where it was hit this time.  There was a creaking sound in the surrounding hull, and the whole ship was shaking, giving people the feeling that it would fall apart at any time.  This attack was like a reminder, destroying An Rui's last bit of patience and confidence.  "We can't wait any longer. We have to find a way to get out of here now." An Rui gritted his teeth, made up his mind, and walked with difficulty towards the big hole not far away.  The closer he got to this big hole, the more intense the impact of the water flow he faced, and every step he took took a lot of effort.  At this time, his clothes were soaked through, and the package he was carrying on his back was certainly not much stronger.  When he was only one step away from the big hole, An Rui took a deep breath of turbid air, lurked into the incoming seawater, and launched the final sprint towards the big hole.  The current in the distance was like a giant's hand, pushing his body hard, making it difficult for him to move.  Fortunately, Anrui was strong enough to hold on, brave the influx of seawater, and plunge into the vast underwater world.  This time it was like a hidden dragon entering the sea, suddenly getting rid of all the constraints and gaining freedom.  An Rui puffed out his cheeks, squinted his eyes, held the board with one hand, and paddled the sea water with the other, swimming forward hard.  The bottom of the sea is a dark world, and nothing can be seen clearly in front of it. Only the flickering light can be seen above the head.  The sun penetrates the sea water and turns into rays of dreamy light, guiding Anrui's path forward.  The current sea surface is very dangerous. If it emerges, it is likely to be discovered.  With An Rui¡¯s identity, whether he is discovered by a wizard or a pirate, there will be no good end.  Wizards will regard him as a pirate, and pirates will regard him as a traitor. He cannot please both sides.  Therefore, he could only swim as far away as possible to avoid being discovered by anyone.  He held back the little air left in his lungs and swam due west.  Because he held the wooden board in his arms, his body was lifted up by a buoyant force and kept floating upward.  When he was about to float to the surface of the sea, the air in his lungs was almost exhausted, so he took this opportunity to penetrate the sea water and push his head out.  He opened his mouth wide, took a deep breath of sea-smelling air, and then plunged into the sea water again, not daring to stay on the sea surface for any longer.  On the vast sea, a person's figure is not very eye-catching, not to mention that An Rui only showed his head in a hurry, so no one noticed it.  He continued to swim forward, and whenever the oxygen was exhausted, he would raise his head to inhale.  After repeating this several times, they finally moved away from the fighting area, leaving the two ships far behind.  "Poof!" An Rui stuck his head out of the sea again, swallowing the air as if it was the most delicious food in the world.  The situation seemed a little safer now, so he bravely turned his head and took a look, wanting to see where the battle was progressing.  This glance happened to allow him to see an extremely tragic scene.  I saw the humanoid creature made of liquid condensation, swinging its giant fist at the dilapidated Bloody Shark, hitting the deck again and again.  These fists were so strong and powerful that every time they fell, they would cause a huge impact on the deck, causing sawdust to fly everywhere.  Without a few blows, the Scarlet Shark was smashed to pieces by the humanoid creature, turned into two pieces of wreckage, and sank under the sea surface.  A large number of wood chips were scattered on the sea, and some survivors were swimming and escaping, away from the vicious humanoid creature.  "Roar!" The humanoid creature opened its arms and roared to the sky, like a tiger roaring in the forest, the sound spread far and wide.  This roar was enough to make one's liver and gallbladder split, and the fleeing pirates immediately accelerated their swimming speed, giving people the feeling of a tree falling down and hozens scattering.  The humanoid creature chased the pirate closest to it. With a rising and falling fist, it punched the man into the sea.  A stream of red liquid spread in the sea water.  Seeing this scene, An Rui felt a chill on his back. He quickly turned back and dived into the seabed again, for fear of being discovered by the wizard or the humanoid creature.  Others don¡¯t recognize the humanoid creature, they?Know everything clearly.  This thing is called "water element", and it is a magical creature created by magic.  As seen from the outside, the body of this magical creature is made of water, and its body is filled with violent currents and magic circuits.  The water element possesses powerful physical destructive power, and can also perform water-attribute attacks, making it quite powerful.  When on the sea, the water element can absorb the power contained in the sea water, which is stronger than when on land.  When wizards travel far by boat, they like to create water elements to protect them.  When nothing happens, the water element can be used as the labor force to propel the sailboat forward. If there is danger, the water element can also be sent to destroy the enemy. It can be said that it kills two birds with one stone.  The water element that was showing off its power just now is actually not of a high level. In the previous life, An Rui had several wizards who knew how to create water elements, and the water elements created by each of them were more powerful than this water element.  The strongest water element among them can blow a small ship like the Scarlet Shark into pieces with just a sneeze, without the need to punch.  "But that was all in the previous life." An Rui smiled bitterly in his heart. Now he doesn't even have half of his subordinates, he is just alone.  I don¡¯t know how long it will take before I can gather a large group of people around me like in my previous life, and travel on the sea together towards the goal of dominating the seven seas.  Pressing down the distant thoughts in his heart, Anrui continued to swim forward, gradually moving away from the battlefield that was filled with the breath of death.  After more than half an hour, he was completely exhausted and had to stop, holding the board and floating on the sea to rest.  He gasped for air, and it took him a while to recover.  The ship of Tears of the Stars Academy sails eastward. This ship will not go this way. Plus, so much time has passed, so it should be safe now.  "I'm so thirsty." An Rui moved his mouth, untied the package he was carrying, placed it on a wooden board floating on the sea, took out a bottle of wine, opened the lid, and took a sip.  A refreshing chill suddenly spread throughout the throat, not to mention how pleasant it was.  Even though half an hour had passed, he still felt frightened when he recalled what had just happened.  The situation just now was too dangerous. If the fireball deflected even a little further, it would kill him.  Fortunately, the goddess of fate was on his side and helped him escape the disaster.  The wizard had just threatened his life, but he couldn't feel much hatred for those wizards. The pirates were a group of evil people, and it was only natural that wizards kill pirates to punish evil and eliminate evil.  But he would not applaud because of this. After all, it was the pirates who fished him out of the sea and saved his life. They were barely his benefactors.  In this fight, he is just an implicated bystander. He has no clear position. He will neither stand on the side of the pirates nor the wizards.  "I don't know what's going on with Sophie, whether she's dead or alive. Although she is a female pirate, it would still be a pity if she died." An Rui suddenly had this thought of caring for her, but  I just thought about it and didn't feel too sad about it.  After resting, Anrui took out his compass, checked his position, and swam toward the west.  Jingtie Island is located several nautical miles away to the west. As long as you keep swimming towards the west, you will definitely reach it.  Swimming is a strenuous activity, and Anrui has to rest every once in a while and walk on the sea.  Time flies, the sun sets, the moon and stars climb up, dotting the dark night, exuding a bright brilliance.  The stars and the moon twinkled together, just like the eyes of ancient gods, gazing at the world with neither sadness nor joy.  Anrui was tired and sleepy. He wished he could hug the board and take a deep sleep, but he didn't dare to do so. Instead, he forced himself to stay awake and move on.  The sea is very dangerous, and there are many murderous intentions hidden under the rough sea.  "Ferocious sea monsters, man-eating fish, cruel fish-men, strange sea monsters, resentful water ghosts These terrifying existences may jump out from the bottom of the sea at any time and take away An Rui's life.  So he couldn't sleep, firstly to prevent being attacked, and secondly to reach Jingtie Island as soon as possible.  As long as you arrive at Jingtie Island, it will be safe. You can rest in the port hotel and have a good sleep.  "An Rui, you are a pure man, you have to hold on, you can't sleep." He cheered himself up in his heart and resisted the sleepiness tenaciously.  On the dark sea surface, An Rui swam alone toward the west, his hands constantly drawing out, making the sound of splashing waves.  This dark environment can give people a strong pressure. It seems like something will jump out of the darkness at any time and attack him.  Fortunately, he was braver and was not frightened by the darkness.??Don't think wildly.  The night passed like this, the night faded, and the sunshine of the next day ushered in.  Under the sunlight, the sea surface glowed with thousands of golden lights, which was bright and moving.  An Rui ate today¡¯s breakfast on the wooden board, which included soggy black bread and stale bacon. Only the sweet rum was still refreshing, which made him feel more satisfied.  While eating breakfast, he admired the beautiful scenery above the sea, his eyes moving slowly on the sea.  Suddenly, a shadow lingering on the sea caught his eye. This shadow had an undulating outline like a ridge. It was located due west and seemed to be an island.  "Jingtie Island!" His eyes suddenly lit up, and half of his body immediately pulled out of the sea, splashing into a ball of waves.  With this scream, the mouth full of food residue spurted out and fell on the sea, but he didn't care at all.
