Earthling in Uncharted Dimensions

Chapter 308: The Voyage To Intellus

Lee Shen had just turned to gaze at the horizon when the rough voice of the seasoned sailor rose from behind.

When Lee was about to turn around, Jonit came and stood next to Lee and stared at the boundaries of the ocean beyond sight.

"I forgot to ask where you are heading. If you have a specific destination, we can help you reach there.

You won't be needing our help. But we want to show our gratitude. If we could help you even in the slightest manner, that would bring happiness to us."

Jonit had been busy for the past one hour fixing the broken mast and repairing the rudders. The sweat had lined his dress and his skin with visible trails.

The triplets took turns dragging the ships towards their destination. When Lee came to know that they were also heading to Intellus, he was joyous on the inside. He, therefore, asked Draconic Wyverns to help them move forward.

"I don't have any relatives alive. So I wander around. All I have are them."

While finishing the words, Lee looked up his shoulder and his gaze fell on the triplets and Zena. Basking in the natural daylight, they have grown fond of the original climate of the main dimension. The triplets expressed their wish to stay on the outside rather than in the System Space.

Jonit had an urge to query about the origin of these bizarre creatures. He hesitantly asked and Lee repeated the story D had prepared for such an occasion.

According to the story, Lee stumbled upon them when he fell into a pit while roaming inside a jungle. The fall introduced him to an underground cave where he saw piles of bones and three tiny eggs.

Sensing hostility in the vicinity, Lee Shen somehow escaped the inconspicuous tunnel with the three eggs. They later hatched and the triplets were born!

The story had covered all the necessary loopholes prone to questioning. As an expert sailor, Jonit also shared his experiences of fortunes and misfortunes and accepted the explanation.

"I came to know about the other continents about a few years ago. I had thought of going there once, but the recent natural disasters quickened my decision."

Lee Shen gave a short description of what he had heard about the Intellus and Jonit shared his knowledge. Though Lee could not attain any new information, he was convinced that the continent of Intellus would be a whole different stage of battle!

After a short period of silence.

"How did you all got stuck in that cloud formation?" (Lee Shen)

"Oh, that! We only saw a giant rain cloud formation in a distance and as we tried to round about it, we found ourself engulfed by it. It was not too quick or slow.

As soon as we were trapped inside, we lost sight of our sister ships. It took us some time to find each other and by that time, the raider ship had occupied one ship.

After looting and pillaging, they took every bit of gold and silver and all the living beings to their raider vessel.

We have not heard from them since and we saw the ship catching on fire and swallowed by it."

Hudson had inferred conclusions out of the narration. But they were all partially accurate due to lack of information input.

Jonit stood next to Lee Shen for a few more minutes silently as his eyes surveyed the sea. Sensing something, he excused himself and went below the deck.

Lee constantly observed his surroundings for anything unusual. His eyes ran throughout the sea and on the deck of the ship.

'D, how is Fero?'

[Man, you won't believe what just happened. He just went through an evolution!]

D sounded enthusiastic and excited when he transmitted the information. Lee Shen maintained his blank expression as he asked D to elaborate.

[Until a few minutes ago, Fero's body was continuously consuming Essence for stabilising the Death energy. Though the Dark and Death elements are from the same root, the intensity and mode of function distinguish them.

The Essence value began to show signs of stability and Fero began to move. His soul has been greatly weakened by the injection of the new element, but the supply of Essence helped him to assimilate the Law energy flawlessly.

The final result was a quick and precise reconstruction of Fero's physical body. Now, he is as big as a lion!]

A wide smile spread on his face as Lee stared at the horizon. But his moments of ecstasy was cut short by a small wave of water drenching him completely.

Splash!

{Gotchu.}

Lee Shen was shaken by the sudden attack. He quickly sharpened his gaze and stared at the water.

A short growl echoed in his ears and the culprit was evident.

"Cryo."

Soaked in water, Lee mumbled as he shot a glance at the majestic creature swimming in the ocean. Lee Shen could derive that Cryo had a smirk on his face.

The Ice affinity Draconic Wyvern splashed water like a joyous toddler. It lowered its head and took in a mouthful of water. It tried to rain it but failed as Lee had moved away from the spot.

Cryo was initially hesitant to enter the waters. But when he found that his affinity and water are like siblings, he became an ocean addict.

While Aero and Pyro dragged the ships being airborne, Cryo had the luxury of being on his turf.

While spending time in the waters, Cryo unlocked the art of swimming. At first, he flapped his fore-limbs which splashed water around. Soon he became efficient in swimming.

Cryo sadly recognised that he cannot breathe underwater while spending his time floating over the ocean surface.

Aero tried to make contact with water but was satisfied with a touch alone. On the other hand, Pyro was doing his best not to touch the ocean in any way.

Cryo tried to spray water one Pyro once, once! And the response was a deafening roar which exhibited his anger and rage.
