Chapter 858 Crossing the Vortex
The absurdity of myths and legends lies in the wrong interpretation of objective phenomena, but it cannot be denied that there are really many whirlpools on the Digur River.

Of course, these vortexes are not the gates of the underworld, but the turbulence formed by the rapids hitting the densely covered reefs in the river.

Especially the large vortex poses a huge threat to ships traveling upstream and downstream. If you are not careful, you will be sucked in and hit the hidden reef, causing accidents of shipwreck and human death.

The catamaran that Gao Fei and the others were on was going upstream in the kilometer-wide river.

After a morning of sailing, the river ahead gradually narrowed, and large and small eddies were often seen on the water surface.

"Not far ahead, there is a large whirlpool, which is very dangerous. I have to go down and deal with it."

Pep handed over the rudder to Gao Fei and Wang Daqing, took off his clothes, and jumped into the river naked.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Feng and Ma Yun turned their heads quickly, a little embarrassed.

"Brother Pep doesn't seem to be in the habit of wearing swimming trunks. Sister Tang, is this probably the cultural barrier you're talking about?" Ma Yun asked Tangning in a low voice.

"Not exactly." Tangning patted the little girl's head and explained to her with a smile: "Pep was born in an indigenous tribe, and he has a rough and unrestrained personality, but he also lived in the city and knows how to get along with so-called civilized people. , the reason why he jumped into the river naked was mainly because he was reluctant to tear his clothes."

"Huh? Why did you tear your clothes when swimming?" Xiao Ma looked puzzled. "By the way, I have another question. Brother Pep told us not to take a bath in the river. Why did he jump in?"

"You son of a bitch, can't you see it? Brother Pep went into the water to escort the boat!" Ma Tao scolded his sister angrily.

How can Pep escort a catamaran with a load capacity of more than [-] tons?

Including Ma Yun, everyone cast their curious eyes on the river.

After Pep entered the water, he immediately transformed from a flesh and blood body into a water elemental form.

His sub-profession "Beastman" sacrifices the ranger's spellcasting ability in exchange for the druid's "wild transformation".

Pep is a level 8 "Beastman" and can transform into a medium-sized elemental form. He thinks that the water elemental he transformed is not big enough, so he uses the professional ability "Thousand Faces", that is, "Transformation", to increase his body size One level, become a large water elemental.

Like a big snake made of liquid, Pep quickly approached the large vortex blocking the front of the catamaran, allowing himself to be sucked in, and at the same time, he transformed into a vortex form.

The water element can turn into a vortex corresponding to the body shape, and change the direction of rotation at will.

At this moment, Pep was in the center of the clockwise vortex, twisting his body and turning in a counterclockwise direction.

Two eddies, one large and one small, form concentric circles in the center of the river surface. The directions of rotation are opposite, and the driven water flow moves in the opposite direction along the tangential direction, and the forces cancel each other out partly.

In this way, Pep slows down the speed of the natural vortex, reduces the centripetal force, and weakens the traction on the ship.

If all goes well, the catamaran will be able to break free of the whirlpool and pass through the dangerous waters safely.

Unfortunately, things backfired, and his efforts did not receive the expected results.

It has been raining frequently recently, the flow of the Digul River has increased sharply, and the vortex is more destructive than usual under the impact of the upstream river.

Compared with the naturally formed vortex, the vortex formed by Pep is much worse in size and strength, and the effect of reverse confrontation is not obvious.

To make matters worse, there was a large group of crocodiles hovering in the nearby diving area. Hearing the sound of the motor, they swam over one after another, grinned at the passengers on the deck, blocked the channel, and tried to drive the catamaran towards the whirlpool.

These smart big reptiles found that ships often died in this area, and those who fell into the water were delicious meals delivered to their mouths, and they gathered around here when they had nothing to do, waiting for the rabbit.

Realizing that the situation was not good, Tang Ning quickly boarded the bow, took out the magic lipstick, applied the "amplification technique" on herself, and sang the "beast taming song" to the group of malicious crocodiles.

The magical singing, overshadowing the sound of the waves and the roar of the diesel engine, was clearly conveyed to the ears of each crocodile, and soon eliminated their hostility, turned their heads and swam to the shore, and the channel ahead was restored to flow.

Tangning's singing could only appease the crocodile, but it couldn't appease the violent whirlpool.

In addition to Pep, there is another person on board who is also good at "wild shape".

Gao Fei switched his sub-profession to "imitator", wore a "druid mask" and a "berserker mask", took off his coat and pants, and jumped into the river wearing only a pair of shorts.

At first, he wanted to imitate Pep's elder brother and become a vortex form of water elements, so as to help Pep fight against the natural vortex together.

Suddenly, he suddenly had a whim, changed his mind temporarily, and changed into the form of wind element.

Not long ago in Agats, Gao Fei witnessed the "Son of Thunder" Da Jacob rescued himself after falling into the water. He manipulated the airflow to generate air propellers under his feet, propelling himself to sail in the river, like a human speedboat.

Inspired by Da Jacob, Gao Fei decided to imitate this special "snorkeling" technique and help the catamaran out of trouble by the way.

Elemental creatures, no matter what their attributes, don't need to breathe air to survive, and of course they won't drown.

After Goofy turned into an air elemental, he quickly dived under the surface of the water, approaching the stern of the catamaran, and then transformed into a whirlwind form.

At this time, his body was lying in the river, parallel to the river surface, and the whirlwind he created was also horizontal, whistling and circling underwater, like a long dragon!
The waves generated by the waterspout continuously hit the stern, providing continuous momentum.

The rotation direction of this external force is the same as the rotation direction of the propeller of the outboard engine, thus forming a combined force, which makes the catamaran accelerate suddenly, break through the shackles of the vortex, and quickly escape from the dangerous situation and enter a safe area with gentle water flow.

Gao Fei emerged from the water, flew straight onto the deck, shook off the water droplets on his body, and then changed from the wind elemental form to an earth elemental statue.

Tangning looked at him puzzled, not understanding why he turned into an earth element.

However, Jiang Feng saw what his boyfriend was thinking, and opened the door of the cabin with a shy smile, letting him in. He also thoughtfully sent his clothes into the cabin, and guarded the door by himself so that Tangning and Ma Yun would not accidentally see him. Things not to watch...

Gao Fei changed back into a human form in the cabin, put on his clothes, and walked out.

Not long after, Brother Pep also returned to the boat, put on his clothes, immediately found Gao Fei, and discussed with him about body transformation.

Tang Ning saw that the two of them were chatting speculatively, and expressed emotion to Jiang Feng: "I have known Pep for half a year, every time I ask him, he answers, he doesn't bother to say a word that is extra, today is my first time Seeing 'Silent Pep' take the initiative to talk to someone else."
