Chapter 352: Dragon Slayer Secret
Wendy put her hands in front of her mouth in a trumpet shape and shouted, "It's going to be windy, everyone be careful of the waves!"
"Got it! Altria, take the helm first. Mengmeng and Ye Yan, keep an eye on the horizontal and vertical sails at the back. I'll take charge of the sails in front!" Because Shark Chili was exploring the situation in the water, Zhang Da was temporarily in charge of the command. Fortunately, he had been sailing for so long and was not unlearned. He could handle most situations:
"Wendy and Xia Lulu, keep watching the weather! Tom, just keep sleeping. Perona, you...you better watch yourself and don't get blown away by the wind."
Everyone took their seats. Tom heard Zhang Daye calling him, raised his head and took a look, but immediately lay down obediently and continued to sleep soundly.
Perona puffed up her cheeks: "What do you mean by don't let the wind blow you away? I can help you too... Yeah!"
Before she could finish her words, a strong wind suddenly blew, and Perona was caught off guard and was blown to the ground, in the same posture as Wendy when she fell flat on her face.
As the wind rose, huge waves arose on the sea, but they were not as huge as the waves caused by Lab. The Amber shook slightly for a while, but soon stabilized under the control of everyone.
"Hey, are you imitating Wendy?" Zhang Da also joked after finishing his work, "Do you want to dye your hair blue?"
"It hurts!" Perona got up with tears in her eyes, covering her nose with one hand and her chest with the other. How on earth could Wendy endure falling like this so often? Perona felt sorry for her.
Wendy looked at the sky and warned again: "It's going to rain. No, it feels like it's going to snow! It could be a blizzard!"
"The Grand Line is still like this." Zhang Da also shouted, "Everyone, pay attention to wind and warmth, and prepare to sweep the snow. Remember to put on more clothes!"
Zhang Da also quickly went back to his room and took out a coat. He also did not forget to take Tom back, wrapped him in a blanket and put him in his little nest.
When he returned to the deck, large flakes of snow were already falling. Everyone had changed their clothes, even Xia Lulu had wrapped herself up like a little ball of fluff.
Zhang Da also patted Perona's head and said, "If you want to help, go to the kitchen and boil a pot of hot water."
Perona said stubbornly: "Who, who wants to help you?"
"Then can I ask you to boil a kettle of water for everyone?"
"Since it's everyone's request, there's nothing we can do." Perona blushed and trotted into the cabin.
Zhang Da also shook his head. Low-level tsunderes are quite easy to appease.
Maneuvering the boat, controlling the sails, and clearing the snow, it was another busy period. After completing most of the work, Perona boiled water and made tea. Everyone sat together to rest for a while. Ye Yan released the flag monsters and asked them to do the finishing work.
But before she finished her cup of tea, Wendy looked up again: "It seems to be getting warmer, and it will feel very hot."
A few minutes later, Xia Lulu had taken off her thick clothes and lay listlessly on the table, sticking out her tongue. She felt that the parasol above her head could not block the scorching sun. "Although I heard you say that the weather in the Grand Line is very chaotic, but it's too exaggerated to have winter and summer at the same time, right?"
Wendy agreed as she tried to use magic to blow air for everyone, "I think so too. I thought my feeling was wrong just now."
Perona quickly explained to Wendy and Xia Lulu: "The Grand Line is like this. If you are lucky, you may encounter an area with a mild climate. If not, you will have to wait until you reach the climate zone of the next island before things calm down."
Zhang Da also said, "Hold on a little longer. Didn't Mr. Kulokas say that it would only take half a day to reach the next island?"
"I calculated that the journey is already halfway through." Shark Chili was writing and drawing on a notebook. He was recording the navigation information. After writing it, he would put it in the library for everyone to use, and it could also be used to teach Nami.
"Master, can I put it here?" The Tidecaller brought out the ice cream machine, placed it next to the parasol, and carefully connected the wires.
"The raw materials have been prepared according to your requirements." Ma Laowu walked out of the kitchen holding a large bucket.
On the bottom floor of the Amber, Mo Lizha and Jin Erpeng were riding on spinning bike-style generators to replenish the backup power for the ship.
The other four flag monsters were also not idle. They were cleaning the deck according to Ye Yan's instructions.
The flag monsters were trying to atone for abandoning Ye Yan on the Upside-Down Mountain, and they were busy running around without any free time.
That is to say, the Tidecaller was with Ye Yan at the time, so the lesson he received was a little lighter. The reason why he was punished together was because Ye Yan knew that if this guy could not move freely in the water, he would have run away long ago when facing such big waves.
Ye Yan has a clear understanding of the moral integrity of his own flag demon.
Thanks to the efforts of the flag monsters, everyone ate ice cream leisurely. The sight of Xia Lulu holding an ice cream cone that was almost as tall as her when she sat down and licking it gently was very funny.
Tom, who had been sleeping all the way, woke up at just the right time and did not miss dessert.
Taking advantage of this leisure time, Zhang Da also glanced at the energy bar, clicked on the lottery casually, and then was attracted by the two books he won.
"Wendy, how is your dragon-slaying magic practice going?" Zhang Da also asked.
"Eh?" Wendy paused while eating and said in annoyance, "I'm already very proficient in ordinary magic, but..."
Wendy was a little disappointed: "But other dragon slayers have magic called dragon slayer secrets, but I have no idea."
Perona asked curiously, "What is the secret of dragon slayer? Is it important?"
Xia Lulu helped explain: "The Dragon Slayer Secret is the most powerful magic of the Dragon Slayer Mage. It is said that it can penetrate the dragon's scales, destroy the dragon's internal organs, and even hunt the dragon's soul. If you don't master the Dragon Slayer Secret, you can't be considered a qualified Dragon Slayer Mage."
"Is Wendy really aiming to defeat the dragon?" Perona imagined the scene of tiny Wendy confronting a huge dragon...it felt so inconsistent.
Wendy nodded seriously: "I will defeat that black dragon no matter what!"
Then Wendy became a little depressed again: "But I don't even know what the secret of dragon slayer is..."
"Don't be discouraged so quickly." Xia Lulu comforted Wendy, and then looked at Zhang Daye, "You suddenly asked this, don't tell me you have an idea, right?"
"Is that so?" Wendy looked at Zhang Daye hopefully.
"That's right." Zhang Da didn't keep her in suspense any longer. He took out two books and placed them in front of Wendy. "Sky Dragon Slayer Magic, Dragon Slayer Secret Technique: Illuminating the Sky, and Dragon Slayer Secret Technique: Galaxy. You can learn them now."
[Polyusica's Magic Book: A magic book dictated by Grandine and recorded by Polyusica, which contains the two great dragon-slaying secrets of the Sky Dragon-Slaying Magic.]
'Sky Piercing' is a magic that uses the wind barrier to restrict the opponent within a certain range, and then attacks the opponent with a compressed airflow. It is said that it can pierce the sky and has very strong penetrating power.
'Galaxy' is a very special auxiliary magic that can communicate with the dead. Although there are some restrictions, if used well, there is a chance to obtain lost knowledge or important information.
"Is it really the secret of dragon slaying? And there are two of them!" Although Xia Lulu guessed that Zhang Da had an idea, she was still surprised to see him directly take out two books of secrets.
Wendy's nose twitched, and the first thing she noticed was something other than magic. She exclaimed in surprise, "It smells like Grandigne!"
"Does that mean this is true?" Xia Lulu asked doubtfully, "What on earth is going on?"
"To put it simply, Wendy's adoptive mother, the Celestial Dragon Grandine,... um..." Zhang Da also considered his words and said, "When she 'disappeared', Wendy was still too young to be taught the secrets of dragon slayer in time, so she entrusted these two magics to Polyusicaa and asked her to teach them to Wendy at the appropriate time."
Xia Lulu said, "Polusica, I remember that's the name of our guild's pharmacist, right?"
"Yes!" Wendy nodded. "We haven't met her yet. I heard from everyone that she seems difficult to get along with. Has she met Grandigny?"
"I guess so." Zhang Da also said, "Her identity is very special. It's not good for me to reveal her privacy without permission. So when you go back, go ask her yourself. There will be a surprise."
Perona slapped the table in dissatisfaction: "What? People who only say half of the words are the most hateful!"
Rui Mengmeng's curiosity was also aroused: "That's right, Boss, we won't go to that world and talk nonsense."
Zhang Da also changed the subject abruptly: "If you keep staring at me, Tom and Altria will eat up all the ice cream."
Tom paused, quickly threw two ice creams into his mouth, put his hands behind his back, looked up at the sky, and chewed quickly.
Altria's expression remained unchanged: "We are all sitting together to eat, how can you be said to be stealing? Tatsuya's words are inappropriate. As a punishment, you will have to eat one less."
Zhang Da also quickly stretched out his hands to protect his food: "What kind of punishment are you giving me? The abacus beads are about to fall on my face!"
After a while of laughter, Zhang Da continued, "You all know my ability. I can randomly obtain some things from your world. This time I just happened to get this."
"But I don't know much about magic, so I don't know when the right time is. It's up to you to judge, Wendy. If you think you can do it, then start learning."
"Yes! I will try my best!" Wendy nodded heavily, holding the two books in her arms. When she smelled the scent of Grandigny on them, she felt full of energy.
"Did you hear that? Wendy is going to start working hard again." Zhang Da also quietly touched the table in front of Perona, "When will some people be able to make a little progress?"
Perona protested, "I've been trying hard lately! You're as heavy as a pig, I can't even lift you!"
"Am I heavy?" Zhang Da also patted Tom and said, "Tom, check if the floor under my feet is dirty or not. Do I need to clean it?"
Tom took the time to reach out a hand and lifted up Zhang Daye and the chair. He turned his head to look at the floor, then shook his head to indicate that it didn't need to be cleaned.
Zhang Da looked at Perona again: "See, Tom can lift me up easily. If you can't lift me up, you must not be trying hard enough."
Can I compete with Tom? Perona glared at Zhang Tatsuya, wanting to whip him with her twin ponytails.
"Bang! Bang!"
There was a big hole in the parasol, and a hailstone as big as a fist passed through the umbrella and fell on the table, scaring everyone.
Wendy was stunned for a moment, then realized that she seemed to have failed in her duty, and apologized with a flat mouth: "I'm sorry everyone, I didn't notice the change in the weather just now."
