It was much easier to die of dehydration than starvation.

The sailors walked out of the cabin with sorrowful expressions hanging off their faces.

Wo Lun’s chest tightened as he looked at the sailors who he had spent so many years with.

The black figures were the Saw Fin Bite Sharks, and they occupied every Violent Wind Federation’s sailor’s nightmares.

In order to increase the distance they could travel, the Violent Wind Federation’s boats’ propelling mechanisms were built at the bottom of the boats.

However, the Saw Fin Bite Sharks had interacted enough with the Violent Wind Federation’s boats to know the best way to destroy the boats.

The Saw Fin Bite Sharks would corner small turtle-species feys into the space at the bottom of the boat to block the propelling mechanisms.

As such, the boats would not be able to move even if they had backup sources of energy.

In order to move, the sailors would have to remove the blockage from the propelling mechanisms.

Every mature Saw Fin Bite Shark was at pinnacle Gold grade.

There had to be a Platinum Saw Fin Bite Shark in such a large pod.

No sailor would be able to survive for longer than ten seconds once they entered the water because they would immediately be chomped into bloody pieces by the Saw Fin Bite Shark.

Suddenly, the sailor in the crow’s nest fell out and landed on the deck.

The crow’s neck was ten meters tall, and the unconscious sailor died upon contact.

All the other sailors rushed over to the fallen sailor. When they confirmed that he was dead, a few drops of tears rolled down their severely dehydrated faces.

Wo Lun knew that the sailor had fallen from the crow’s nest because he was overly dehydrated.

If these sailors continued to be trapped here, they would not last another two days.

The sea would then claim another ghost boat.

Wo Lun was already a middle-aged man, over 30 years old. However, he was still as passionate as any young man.

In the sea where peril was abound, the Violent Wind Federation’s special boat design would enable the sailors to earn a tidy sum every time they went out to search for resources.

When he was young, Wo Lun often spoke about his dreams, and he continued working hard at sea even after he reached middle age.

However, at this moment, he would choose his and his friends’ survival over his dream.

Wo Lun went to the cabin and took out the bottle of alcohol that his master had brewed.

Although alcohol would not quench their thirst, it would give the sailors some respite.

As he looked at the lives before him that were slowly rotting away, he felt that everything he saw as important in the past was suddenly insignificant.

He and his friends could only continue chasing their dreams if they survived.

All the sailors were alcoholics and usually lunged toward any wine bottle that entered their sight line.

They would make a beeline for the bars and pubs every time they returned to the harbor.

However, these sailors turned down the wine bottle and said they could still hold on.

Wo Lun had taken out the wine because he felt that his friends’ lives were more important than his hopes.

But now, his friends were refusing to drink the wine because they knew how precious it was to him.

A painful ache squeezed Wo Lun’s heart. He could not take it any longer and forcefully uncorked the wine.

The wine’s fragrance immediately flowed out of the bottle and permeated the air.

Wo Lun said to the youngest sailor, “Little Monkey, bring me some bowls.”

Little Monkey immediately ran up to fetch the bowls.

Wo Lun saw that there was a black cloth around Little Monkey’s wrist.

He remembered that the Saw Fin Bite Shark meat that Little Monkey had served him yesterday had been cooked until it was warm and soft.

Little Monkey was usually very playful and always clashed with the older sailors.

Wo Lun always said that Little Monkey was too disobedient. But now, it seemed that Little Monkey also had a considerate side to him.

Little Monkey brought over a stack of bowls. As Wo Lun filled them with wine, he realized that they were one bowl short.

Just as Wo Lun was about to ask Little Monkey about it, Little Monkey waved his hand and said, “Big Brother Wo Lun, I have the night shift today at the crow’s nest, so I won’t be drinking!”

Wo Lun hugged Little Monkey and fed him two bowls of wine before he said, “You don’t have to take the night shift at the crow’s nest today. I’ll do it!”

Little Monkey licked his lips as though he was savoring the remnants of the wine and said, “Big Brother Wo Lun, I can’t let you do that!”

Wo Lun waved his hand and replied, “We can’t move the boat, and I have nothing else to do. All of you should have a good rest in the cabin tonight while I’m up in the crow’s nest. The matter is settled!”

Wo Lun picked up the bowl and took a large gulp.

Wo Lun usually controlled the sailors with an iron fist and forbade anyone from drinking while they were walking.

But now, as he looked at Little Monkey and the other sailors, Wo Lun felt as though he would succumb to the grief and misery he had been trying to keep down.

That night, Wo Lun leaned back against the pillar of the crow’s nest and summoned the Tied Armor Sea Fern.

He instructed it to fortify the crow’s nest so no one would be able to fall from it.

Wo Lun looked up at the moon and sighed heavily.

He used to love clear skies. But now, he wished for the skies to turn cloudy and for a rainstorm to descend.

After midnight, as cracks of dawn started to peek through the dark sky, the strong-willed Wo Lun gave in and fell asleep.

Before he lost consciousness, a thought appeared in his head.

I’m willing to give up anything if it means that my friends and I can survive.

…

The constellations shone as the milky way flowed through the maze of stars.

There was beautiful starlight in the middle of the milky way.

A long-awaited banquet finally started amongst the stars.

However, there were fewer people than the original six that attended the last Astronomical Parliament.

Su Yiren was not in attendance this time. Instead, she was nurturing the 14 Poppy Fruits.

At that moment, figures appeared in the Andromeda, Perseus, and Leo Minor north-south constellation seats.

The person seated on the Leo Minor seat was excited to see his teacher again.

On the other hand, the people seated on the Andromeda and Perseus seats started to cry when they saw the figure wrapped in countless willpowers and laws seated on the Leo throne.

Yin Lin tried to keep her joy and relief at a reasonable level as she said, “Leo, Libra, it’s been long!”
