Chapter 270: Thunder
The huge thunder rumbled continuously, and the entire cloud layer seemed like there was a huge fight between lightning, with lightning running everywhere, and the entire cloud layer was illuminated by lightning.
Such a scene frightened Xiaobai so much that he swam directly to the bottom of the boat. Out of sight, out of mind. Vic also swallowed his saliva as he watched such a scene.
“Could it be someone going through a tribulation? This is too scary, it’s a total calamity that leaves no way for people to survive!”
Although the lightning did not strike, the sense of oppression was even stronger at such a close distance, giving people a feeling that thunder would strike at any time.
This scene only lasted for a few dozen seconds before the lightning returned to its original small-scale flashes. Just as Vic breathed a sigh of relief, he saw something falling from the sky again, also crystal clear.
This time it was not water droplets, but hail. Each hailstone was as big as a mountain, and it was irregular icebergs falling down.
Vic's sigh of relief was lifted up again. Icebergs were even more powerful. One iceberg could flatten a warship, let alone a small boat like this. It couldn't even withstand a single scratch. Vic didn't dare to be careless. Although there were few hailstones now, this was just the beginning!
Just as Vic thought, the hail became more and more dense, and Vic's sword energy was released without cost, splitting the iceberg that was hitting the boat and leaving a safe space for the boat. Although the ice was split and fell into the sea nearby, the waves it created were equally deadly. If Xiaobai hadn't been holding up the boat, the boat would have capsized long ago.
Wendy in the boat was having a dream. She dreamed that she had returned to her infancy and was lying in a cradle with her legs kicking. The servant beside her was pushing the cradle back and forth to help her fall asleep quickly, and was humming an inaudible music. Gradually, her mind became dizzy.
A moment later, Vic split the last iceberg that had fallen, his chest rising and falling slightly. He was not tired, but the consumption of sword energy was a bit too much, even greater than the consumption in his battle with Zefa.
Vic squinted at the clouds that had not yet dissipated. He had an urge to split the clouds with a knife. If he was alone, he would definitely go into the clouds to see what was going on.
"This is too much! It won't stop!"
Vic resumed his breathing, but still didn't dare to relax. Who knew what would happen next? Xiaobai didn't dare to show his head either. This was the first time it had experienced such a grand occasion. If it had encountered something wrong before, it would have dived deep into the sea. Now it has mustered up great courage to accompany Vic, but its smart eyes are staring at Vic, as if it is doubting something.
"What are you looking at! This is definitely not caused by me. I have always had good luck. It was only since I met you that bad luck started!" Vic understood the meaning in Xiaobai's eyes. Vic did not think that he was unlucky.
Xiaobai called out twice, ignored Vic, and dived under the boat again. Not long after Xiaobai dived into the water, a bolt of lightning struck the sea surface, as if a lamp was lit in the sea. The upper surface of that sea area lit up, and then thunder continued to strike the sea.
"Damn it! That's too much! That's too much. I can understand if you want to make it rain or hail, but why do you want to make it thunder? Do you have to kill everyone and not give them a chance to live? Who is it? Is it you? Kaido? Come out! Are you going to perform a fire show for me next?"
The successive natural disasters made Victor somewhat suspicious that this was man-made. It seemed that the only thing that could do this was Kaido's Blue Dragon Mythical Beast Fruit ability. Although Kaido did not have ice abilities, there was plenty of ice in the clouds in the sky.
Naturally, no one responded to Vic's call, so Vic simply cut the rope connecting the bow of the ship and Xiaobai, forcing Xiaobai to swim to the deep sea to hide.
Thunder Wick was not very afraid, as he had been struck by lightning many times before when using the magic staff, but just because he could withstand it didn't mean Wendy could too.
Wendy's fate is unfortunate. It seems that God must take her away and has been preventing her from getting treatment, but Vic will not give up just like that.
He took out the harpoon that he had taken from Xiaobai from the space ring, and inserted it diagonally into the sea from the edge of the boat, and the entire boat was surrounded by it.
This harpoon is several meters long. After being inserted into the water, it is still much higher than the boat. They are gathered together on the top of the cabin. Vic has installed a birdcage-style lightning protection device for the boat.
Vic was afraid that this was not enough, so he sat on the bow, pointed his left hand knife to the sky, and plunged his right hand knife into the water, and then used a human lightning rod to add an extra layer of insurance.
As if sensing Vic's provocation, the thunder and lightning in the clouds became violent again, wandering and roaring everywhere. The thunder became more and more numerous and dense, and the sea surface was lit up and darkened everywhere.
Finally, a bolt of lightning hit the harpoon, but it was instantly directed into the sea and the boat was not damaged.
The corners of Vic's mouth curled up, but before his smile faded, a bolt of lightning struck Xueku, then quickly passed through Vic's body, went along Alan's other hand, and finally went into the sea.
"This lightning is powerful enough. It is much more powerful than the Void Thunder, but it has no effect on the body. Bad review!"
Vic was struck by lightning and still had the mood to complain, which shows that such thunder cannot hurt Vic now. He originally wanted to take advantage of it, but he didn't expect that this thunder had no effect on body refining.
Next, the thunder seemed to turn into heavy rain, so dense that it was outrageous. The entire sea surface was lit up, and the sea and the sky were connected together, and it never got darker.
Vic received special care here. Since he had metal materials that were more attractive to lightning, Vic was inevitably the focus of lightning's attention. The expression on his face was very interesting and his hairstyle had changed, but the boat was safe and sound under so much protection.
"Lightning of this magnitude can probably only destroy a house, right? It's far from the lightning that destroyed an island with one strike from Enel. Even if you have more power, you can't do anything to me!"
Vic was still complaining in his heart that lightning was weak after being struck by lightning. He didn't even think about how his body had been trained. He had even been specially tempered by lightning before. It would be strange that he would be afraid of such lightning.
"I wonder what effect it will have if I take out the magic wand?"
Vic turned his head and looked at the safe and sound boat, feeling relieved. Then he thought of the magic staff related to thunder, which he had never used since he went to sea.
Vic took out the magic wand from the dimensional space and all of a sudden, all the thunders seemed to have an idea and gathered towards the magic wand.
All the lightning gathered together like a huge electric funnel, and all the lightning leaked onto the scepter.
If someone in the distant sea saw this scene at this moment, they would definitely be shocked. It is a complete spectacle!
A funnel larger than an island, composed of tens of thousands of thunderbolts! At this moment, Vic was not hit by the void thunderbolt. The divine staff seemed to be attracted by more important things and had left Vic aside.
