Sailing at Sea: The Breath of the Day at the Start

Her clothes were now tattered, and her long knife had many cracks.

She also had multiple abrasions on her body.

However, she was acting nonchalant now so that Ron wouldn't see her earlier embarrassment.

Even now, Naoko still feels lingering fear when she thinks about the previous battle.

She faced a frenzied attack from so many tentacles.

Those tentacles were clearly faster than her, constantly attacking her from various angles.

Nai Zi was a little flustered for a moment.

Fortunately, Ron suddenly appeared and dispersed the tentacles.

But when Naoko saw Taiichiro's current state, her relaxed mood immediately tightened again.

"Senior, what's wrong?"

Taiichiro said helplessly.

"This curse is much more powerful than we imagined. Be careful not to fall for it."

We need to get out of here right now.

Nai Zi pointed to Fang.

"I came from that direction, so let's retreat from that direction now."

She could tell that Taichiro was seriously injured.

While eliminating the curse is the top priority, it is even more important to save the lives of one's teammates.

This was also the first lesson taught at the school.

So the three of them rushed in that direction.

Soon, Nai Zi's face turned ugly, because that direction was no longer the exit.

Chapter 9, Ron's Fury

"What, what's going on here? I remember this was the exit."

That's the direction Nai Zi is pointing in.

Ron said.

"This curse has an extremely powerful ability to reverse the order of things; it can change everything we see at will."

So even though you came from here before.

But now it's clear that this direction is no longer the path you took before.

We're lost.

Nai Zi's face turned even uglier, and she said.

"So what should we do now?"

Should we go in and kill the curse first, or treat the senior's wounds first?

As she said this, she glanced at Taiichiro and could sense that he had entered a state of shock.

His physical condition was very poor, and there were signs of infection in many of his wounds.

If we don't act quickly, he might not survive the night.

Ron said.

"The wound needs to be treated, but there's no way we can get out right now."

We can only treat the wound here for now.

Naoko looked at Taiichiro with a worried expression.

Taiichiro lowered his head, feeling a burning pain in his body.

Every place looked as if it had been pierced by a thousand arrows.

But he forced himself to hold back, not letting out a cry of pain, so as not to make the two younger ones worry about him.

He gritted his teeth, enduring the pain, and said.

"It's okay, don't worry about me."

Once you figure out a way to break out, things will naturally become easier.

If I stay here, I'll easily attract the attacks of these guys.

Before the words were finished, a faint sound came from the darkness.

They all knew that the tentacles had begun to roam around them again, trying every means to find their weaknesses.

Naizi gripped the long knife tightly, a hint of fear in her eyes.

She had just gone through a tough battle before meeting Ron.

That battle remained vivid in her memory; the way those tentacles attacked was extremely bizarre.

He almost bit her every time.

Each of her strikes on the tentacles produced a burst of sparks, but the tentacles remained completely unharmed.

When she first came here, she thought the curse was just an ordinary one.

Since no one at the school wanted to come, she decided to break the curse herself and then go back to the school to teach those disobedient kids a lesson.

But she never expected that the curse was far more terrifying than she had imagined.

Ron said in a low voice.

"Don't be reckless; you must step back when it matters."

We mustn't get entangled with these tentacles.

Taiichiro serves as a cautionary tale; his previous entanglement with those tentacles resulted in injuries to several parts of his body.

Once these tentacles bite into their skin, they rapidly absorb their blood.

Once a large amount of blood is lost, death is inevitable.

Nai Zi nodded; of course she understood this principle.

But when the battle actually started, she had no idea where those tentacles would emerge from.

Although she is very strong and can be considered one of the best among the senior students.

However, she couldn't help but feel a little flustered when faced with these tentacles.

It's easy for these tentacles to disrupt your rhythm.

She said through gritted teeth.

"I never imagined these guys could be so terrifying."

Ron said.

"First, calm yourself down and don't think about how terrible they are."

Only by calming down can we quickly analyze their weaknesses.

That being said, Ron knew his current state.

To fight, one must reignite that boundless rage.

Only that kind of anger can unleash his potential and fully develop his power.

It continuously provides him with new strength.

His anger seemed to have subsided considerably after seeing that apple.

He felt weak all over again and almost collapsed to the ground.

Fortunately, he and Taiichiro supported each other, preventing him from falling.

Nai Zi had already noticed Ron's exhausted state.

Moreover, judging from Taichiro and Ron's condition, they had already been through several battles before.

Nai Zi said.

"Do the three of us think we can break through?"

Ron nodded.

"should be no problem."

He was comforting Nai Zi, even he himself didn't know if their strength was enough to break through.

at this time.

Those tentacles once again took the form of a strangulation.

They charged toward them.

Some of the tentacles coalesced into a larger tentacle.
