Extraordinary North America: Where are the magical partners?

Chapter 229 The Deadly Whirlpool Monster (asking for monthly tickets)
On the sea surface, which had gradually calmed down due to the huge waves that had just poured down, a powerful wave of magical power slowly rose up.

The vast sea seemed to be stirred by an invisible force, and a huge whirlpool emerged silently and unknowingly, its range was so wide that it almost covered all the vision.

The center of the vortex flickered with a strange blue light, deep and mysterious, as if it could swallow everything, while the edge expanded outward at an alarming speed, ruthlessly drawing the surrounding sea water into it, forming a huge vortex flow.

As the whirlpool began to spin violently, the sea surface also fluctuated, as if the entire Bermuda was shaking.

"This"

Looking at the sea below, even Rango couldn't help but open his mouth in astonishment.

"What on earth is this?!"

All around the swirling sea water, there appeared densely packed saw-like sharp teeth like shark fins. They were as dense as thorn bushes in the sea. At a glance, they seemed endless and chilling.

“Could it be a deadly nine-headed shark?” Teddy leaned over to look at the sea, muttering to himself in shock.

The half-gods standing nearby were also at a loss, looking at all this with pale faces. Only the fish-man girl, Kaixi, moved her lips slightly and said in horror: "It's Charybdis! The legendary giant whirlpool monster!"

"what?!"

Annabeth was shocked when she heard this: "Didn't Mr. Dionysus say that Charybdis was imprisoned forever because he offended Zeus?"

She suddenly stopped talking halfway because the book recorded that this legendary sea monster was imprisoned by Zeus in a forbidden sea area.

What could be more worthy of the title of forbidden sea than Bermuda, where accidents are so frequent, making sailors avoid it as much as possible?
"Ruined"

Hearing the name of Charybdis, Luke and the others showed despair on their faces. In the Greek mythological monsters they had read, this giant whirlpool monster was a super monster that even Hercules could not do anything about. It was the top predator in the sea!
"How about we summon another giant wave?" Percy said confidently. "This is the ocean. As sons of Poseidon, if we mobilize the power of the ocean together, there is no reason for us to be afraid of such an ugly monster."

"Haha." Luke couldn't help but sneer when he heard it, "You are just a hybrid of Poseidon and a mortal, but Charybdis is a pure-blooded god born of Poseidon and the earth goddess Gaia. Do you think its control over the ocean is not as good as your little bastard?"

"Hey, watch your language, man. If I'm a bastard, then so am you!" Percy retorted unhappily.

"I'm not saying I'm not, but at least I'm not as proud of my terrible father as you are!"

"Sangaofu Bichi"

Teddy looked at the descendants of the gods who were quarreling again and shook his head helplessly. He walked to the handrail of the boat, stretched his head out as much as he could and shouted to Rango who was holding the yacht below: "Fly away quickly, Rango. This thing is called Charybdis, a monster born by Poseidon and his grandmother Gaia. It's not shameful if you can't deal with this kind of monster born from incest."

"."

Rango was speechless as he looked at the sawtooth pattern that covered almost the entire sea surface. If he guessed correctly, these things that looked like shark fins should be the teeth of Charybdis.

But what shocked him was how big this monster was.
The whirlpool caused by the open mouth alone is so endless that one can imagine that the body hidden under the sea must be more than a thousand meters in size!
"Fake."

Rango cursed in dissatisfaction. If he was alone with Yuumi and Malphite, relying on the ability of [Giant Body] to survive in the deep sea, he would definitely dive to the bottom of the sea to find out what was going on, and even find a chance to completely suck the monster dry.

Even if he is defeated, he can hide in Yuumi's magic book and escape to another world for refuge.

However, Teddy, Annabeth and others were also in the adventure team. For their safety, Rango had no choice but to retreat.

"It seems we need to find a way to improve Teddy's strength."

Rango muttered a few words, then slowly rose up, ready to take the yacht and escape from the bloody mouth of the vortex monster.

Everyone on the yacht breathed a sigh of relief when they felt the boat was moving away from danger. They were really worried that Rango would ignore their safety and fight the legendary sea monster alone.

Especially the little demigods like Luke who had had conflicts with Rango before were extremely grateful at this moment.

However, the good times did not last long. The ship suddenly shook violently and a powerful hurricane rose from the sea with a terrifying suction force, swallowing everything around it like a black hole!
Rango looked down and saw that in the center of the jagged vortex, strong hurricanes were coming out from the blood-red channel that looked like a throat.

Apparently, this vortex monster had no intention of letting them go and was trying to swallow the yacht together!
Under this powerful suction, Rango himself was not significantly affected.

If he exerted his full speed, he would be able to easily break through the suction force. However, the yacht in his hands faced a completely different fate.

Due to its huge size, the yacht was shaking under the suction of the vortex, as if it would be swallowed up mercilessly at any time.

"Rango, what are you waiting for?" Teddy held the handrail tightly and shouted anxiously, "Don't worry about these little demigods, take us and Annabeth and evacuate quickly!"

"No!" Percy begged anxiously, "We came here together, so of course we have to leave together!"

He hugged the magic book tightly, fearing that he would be abandoned by Rango and others.

Listening to the shouts on the boat, Rango stared at the huge mouth below that was still releasing suction. His mind quickly recalled all the magical adventure movies he had seen, thinking about the response strategies of the protagonists in similar situations.

In the blink of an eye, he made his decision!
“Yuumi——!”

Rango raised his head and shouted, "Set up the barrier!"

Yuumi was slapping Percy's cheek with her tail angrily, and when she heard Rango's call, she immediately puffed up her cheeks. Then, a golden air shield spread out from around her body, quickly covering the yacht.

"Hold on tight, everybody!" Rango shouted.

Then, he lifted the yacht high, aimed it at the huge mouth of the sea monster below that was spewing hurricanes, and smashed into it without hesitation!
"Wat-Fa?!"

After Teddy cursed in shock, he grabbed Yuumi's tail tightly, closed his eyes, and felt the huge mouth getting closer and closer to him.

The other people on the boat also showed expressions of horror. If Teddy, Yuumi and Malphite were not still on the boat, they would even suspect that Rango was deliberately sending them to their deaths.

Protected by the golden barrier, the yacht went straight into the giant mouth of the sea monster and slid down its throat, as thrilling as a water slide in a water park.

Hearing the terrified shouts of the people below, Rango forced a smile, then he flipped his body in the air, head down, and followed the yacht with a powerful impact, and rushed into the sea monster's mouth!
After a long time, the whirlpool on the sea began to gradually dissipate.

The shark corpses and metal ruins that originally covered the sea surface have disappeared without a trace. They were all swallowed by the huge vortex monster.

Following a low roar, the jagged structure on the sea surface began to slowly close.

As the whirlpool rotated, the originally turbulent sea returned to calm again, as if no human had ever set foot in this sea area.

------

"What were you thinking Rango?! We are all trapped in this big guy's belly now!"

"Didn't you notice that we can't see the body of this creature under the sea? We can imagine that it must be incredibly large. Moreover, its skin is thicker than we can imagine. So the only way for us to break through is to get into its stomach!"

"But that doesn't make sense! The skin inside is obviously just as thick as the outside!"

"Do I need you to tell me that? I realize it now!"

"."

There was no waking up from a coma, nor any erotic scene requiring artificial respiration. Under the protection of the golden barrier, everyone on the yacht was like riding on a submarine, passing through the digestive system of the sea monster unimpeded, and finally reaching the huge stomach inside it.

They looked around and saw a stomach as vast as a lake, with countless skeletons of sea beasts and countless fragments of ships floating in it.

Below the yacht was a pool of rotten green stomach acid, which was disgusting.

Om-!
Rango stopped talking nonsense to Teddy. He activated his thermal vision, exerting its power to the extreme, and shot it towards the stomach wall. However, the thermal vision that could easily cut through the steel plate could only leave a charred mark on the tough stomach wall. Even after burning for dozens of seconds, it failed to cut through it.

"OK"

Rango reluctantly withdrew his gaze and shook his head, "I admit now that entering its stomach might be a stupid decision."

The stomach of this sea monster has a peculiar structure, and its strength is far beyond that of ordinary metal. If you want to burn through it, according to the current progress, you need to stimulate the thermal vision continuously for more than an hour to burn a hole in the stomach wall that is several meters thick.

"I told you this was a bad idea."

"Okay, stop second-guessing me, man."

Rango floated to the yacht, pointed at Teddy, and then turned to Annabeth, Luke and others who looked confused, "As you can see, we are now in the belly of this sea monster. So, if you have any good ideas, please put them forward quickly. Otherwise, we can only escape in disgrace." "."

Anna and the others looked at each other in bewilderment when they heard this. Now that he was in someone's stomach, how could Rango still escape?
They looked around. Below them was a disgusting mixture of stomach acid and sea water, and above them were huge skeletons and shipwrecks.

No wonder there are always shipwrecks and plane crashes in Bermuda where the distressed vehicles cannot be found. It turns out that they are all in the stomach of this sea monster.

How to escape from this?
Everyone was filled with frustration. Even Rango's laser eyes that could easily shoot through a battle boat couldn't cut through the monster's stomach wall. How could they, who had just awakened their divine powers, find a way out?
"I have an idea"

Percy suddenly spoke up. He looked at Rango standing at the bow and asked tentatively, "Usually in movies, in this kind of scene, the protagonists go down the intestines under the stomach sac, and finally pass through the rectum and then excrete from that... um. Why don't we give it a try?"

"You'd better save your energy." Rango glared at Percy unhappily.

If he wanted to go out, he could now directly return to other worlds through Yumi's magic book, without having to climb the Moon Gate!
"I have an idea!" Someone in Luke's demigod team came up with a suggestion, "We can keep farting or exhaling. As long as the gas in the sea monster's stomach expands to a certain extent, it will burp or even vomit like humans. In this way, we and the yacht may be expelled together!"

After hearing his words, Rango nodded slightly, feeling that it was true.

However, when he looked around and found that the stomach of the sea monster was as big as a football field, he immediately changed his tone and cursed: "You want to fill such a big place with gas? Damn it, do you think we are farting aliens? How much fart will it take?!"

"Well, didn't you say that you could raise any opinions you had?" After being scolded by Rango, the little demigod who had made the suggestion scratched his head embarrassedly and silently retreated back to the team.

Next, everyone put forward their own suggestions.

"Let's go into its intestines first. Although this monster's stomach is thick, its intestines must be very fragile. Let's go and turn its intestines over!"

“Hiding in the folds of the stomach wall, waiting to be expelled freely!”

"Use biological enzymes to break down the walls of the digestive tract and corrode an escape route!"

“Wait to die.”

"."

Everyone was talking about it, but the suggestions put forward were either unrealistic or difficult to implement, and there was almost no feasible solution.

Rumbling--

At this moment, the calm surface of the gastric acid lake suddenly surged with waves. Everyone hurriedly grabbed the people and handrails around them and looked back nervously.

At the back of the stomach, several muscles covered with spikes, like metal blenders, were colliding and grinding violently. Any ships and skeletons that touched it would be crushed into pieces in an instant!
"It looks like we don't have much time."

Rango's pupils contracted slightly. Although he didn't know how the digestive system of this sea monster worked specifically, the scene before him reminded him of chicken gizzards, which were obviously used to grind and crush food in the stomach.

He then probed the bottom of the yacht and discovered that despite the neutralizing effect of seawater, the stomach acid of this sea monster was still extremely strong. The metal under the yacht had begun to change color, and the paint was completely corroded!

At this moment, everyone around felt the urgency of the situation and looked to Rango for help.

They did not feel resentful towards Rango for driving the yacht into the belly of the sea monster. After all, if it were not for Rango, they would have died at the level of the deadly six-headed shark.

"Master, I have a suggestion." At this moment, Yumi suddenly raised his hand and shouted with his head held high.

Rango waved his hand and said, "Don't use the magic book yet. We are not desperate yet."

"Uh, not the magic book." Yumi shook his tail and said seriously, "When I ate shark meat before, I felt nauseous as soon as it entered my stomach, and the stomach acid came up and I vomited it all out. So, can we also think of a way to push all the stomach acid in this monster's stomach into its esophagus or throat, making it feel nauseous and vomit us out?"

"Um?!"

When the little guy finished speaking, everyone's eyes widened instantly. This method sounded like it was really feasible.

Rango gently stroked his chin, then turned his gaze to the guys on the boat who possessed the power of the ocean, "Do you have a way to control the stomach acid down there?"

These descendants of Poseidon looked at each other, then walked to the side of the ship together, raised their hands and carefully felt the green liquid under the ship.

Percy felt the surge of liquid below, and a look of surprise instantly blossomed on his face: "Yes! There is a lot of seawater mixed in here, we can completely control it!"

His half-siblings also nodded and looked at Rango with excitement.

"Haha, what are you waiting for, guys!"

Hearing their words, Rango swept away his previous gloom, clapped his hands, and waved his arms vigorously towards the entrance of the sea monster's stomach in front of him!
"Give this guy named Charybdis an unprecedented wave of stomach acid!"

"yeah--!"

Everyone became excited, raised their arms and cheered loudly.

The oldest of them was only twenty years old, an age when they were easily affected by emotions. When they heard that there was an opportunity to go out, they all took action.

Except for those guys with ocean divine powers who remained on the deck, the rest of the people rushed into the cabin and used their colorful divine powers to seal the gaps in the cabin tightly, creating an airtight gas environment.

On the periphery, Yumi mobilized the magic power in her body and once again created a huge air shield, tightly wrapping the yacht!

On the high-raised pole at the bow, Rango was standing above the bow, holding the pole, with Teddy sitting on his left shoulder and Yumi floating on his right shoulder. Their eyes were sharp, staring at the entrance of the stomach sac with twitching polyps not far away.

"Thump, th ...

Teddy was humming the BGM of "Pirates of the Caribbean" and looking forward nervously.

“Thump thump~thump thump thump~thump thump thump thump!!!”

Rango also hummed along with his tune.

Not long after, under the urging of Percy and others, the originally calm surface of the gastric acid lake suddenly surged, and then a wave began to lift their yacht high!
"continue--!"

Rango calculated the distance and shouted, "Higher! Higher waves! Damn it, are you guys really the sons of Poseidon? My pee is stronger than yours!"

"what--!"

In front of the bow, Percy and others roared in unison. Their hands were glowing with blue light, representing the power of the ocean, and they aimed at the bottom of the boat. In the blink of an eye, the waves of stomach acid rose again against the yacht!
The gastric acid that had been accumulated in the stomach for thousands of years all gathered into a huge wave dozens of meters high, advancing rapidly from the back!
"Deng deng deng"

"Stop stepping on the horse!"

Seeing that Teddy was about to rush out of the sea monster's stomach, Rango grabbed Teddy's neck and threw him into the cabin below!

Unlike others, he took so much effort to get into the belly of this legendary sea monster, not just to take a simple sightseeing and leave!
The next second, the surging gastric acid carried the yacht above, like an unstoppable torrent, directly passed through the top of the stomach sac, and rushed into the sea monster's narrow and sticky esophagus!
At the same time, as if the sea monster itself had sensed the abnormality in its body, the muscles on the inner wall of the esophagus began to twitch violently, with the frequency becoming increasingly rapid, like waves on the eve of a storm. Immediately afterwards, an overwhelming suction force surged in from the front, tightly wrapping around the stomach acid and the yacht, trying to expel them from the body in one fell swoop!
“Haha, we succeeded!”

Percy and others on the bow were instantly excited. They waved their arms excitedly, then quickly evacuated the deck and hid in the already airtight cabin.

In this deep sea environment, once they escape from the giant mouth of the sea monster, without any protective measures, the strong water pressure will instantly crush them into pieces. However, with the golden barrier outside and the tightly sealed cabin inside, under the double protection, as soon as the yacht exits, it will break through the water at an astonishing speed and see the light of day again!
"ho"

Standing on the top of the boat pole, Rango clearly heard the low roar of the sea monster in the distance. Looking around, the constantly spasming inner wall of the esophagus undoubtedly proved that their method of inducing vomiting had been completely successful.

His eyes flashed with scarlet light, and he examined the toughness of the esophageal wall around him as sharply as a hawk. When he found a weak spot on the inner wall that looked like an ulcer, he immediately shouted loudly: "Yuumi!"

Before he finished speaking, under Yumi's control, the originally indestructible golden barrier instantly cracked into a gap large enough for one person to pass through!
A deafening sonic boom exploded on the deck, and then the barrier surrounding the yacht closed tightly again, as if there had never been any crack.

At this moment, there was no one on the boat pole and Rango's figure had disappeared.

Om-!
Inside the esophagus, Rango was suspended in the air. He first glanced at the yacht that was being pulled up by the powerful suction force.

Then he steadied his body, and his thermal vision suddenly reached its extreme, two blazing red lights burst out from his eyes, carrying unparalleled penetrating and burning power, directly hitting the wounded part of the esophagus wall!
Compared to the indestructible stomach wall before, the esophagus wall of this legendary sea monster seems much more fragile.

Amid the sea monster's painful moans, Rango successfully burned through its esophagus. Without any hesitation, with the help of Yumi's possession, he soared to the limit, like a sharp blade, and instantly pierced into the crack!

In this turbid, plasma-filled dark space, a tiny golden barrier instantly appeared!

Although Rango didn't know where he was at the moment, and there were blurry internal organs all around him, but relying on the palm system's keen perception of magic, he overcame all obstacles and cut off countless blood vessels, and finally reached his goal - a giant heart that was three stories high and beating with strong vitality!
