293. Soul in the sea
Although Odina, who didn't understand why the stars in the sky moved, she also realized a trace of seriousness from the conversation between Chu Wu and Catherine, so she couldn't help but speak.
"You guys, it's not going to be night forever, is it?"
Odina's words made the hearts of Chu Wu and Catherine "chuckle" at the same time, because this situation is really likely to happen.
Suddenly, the atmosphere became a little dull, and the three of them were silent, and suddenly, there was a gunshot near the shore of the island on the left, and it was a dense sound of wheel muskets, mixed with the warning whistle of the snake girl.
Chuwu immediately rushed to the location of the gunshot, and Catherine and Odene followed, and when they were a hundred meters away, Chuwu could already see the target of the snake girls' attack, which was Qiba and the mermaid.
These mermaids do not spew water arrows, but keep jumping forward with their tails, but they are beaten back by the snake girls' wheel muskets, but what shocks the fifth year is that none of these mermaids who have been hit by the muskets are dead and falling, still impacting with teeth and claws.
When Chu Wu completely approached and saw these mermaids clearly, his eyes instantly widened, because these mermaids were indeed like that Li'er, and they looked like dried corpses.
These dried mermaids have gray tails, and all of them are mutilated, some of them have large areas of fish bones exposed, and the upper body looks even more terrifying, there is no intact skin on the shriveled abdominal cavity, and the part hit by the musket does not bleed.
As for the faces of these mermaids, they are completely zombies, with sunken cheeks, bulging teeth, gray eyes without eyes, almost all the hair on the top of the head is falling out, and the occasional hair is as dry as hay.
The snake girls saw that the muskets could not do any damage to the bodies of these dried corpse mermaids, and they aimed their guns at the heads of these dried corpse mermaids.
The rapid rate of fire of the revolver smashed the heads of the dried corpse mermaids, and the dried corpse mermaids finally collapsed on the beach.
When the gunfire stopped, Chu Wu immediately stepped forward to check, and the more he looked at it, the more his brows furrowed, and at the same time, these dried corpse mermaids also reminded him of the undead creatures he had encountered.
The other mermaid girls who came to watch had complicated faces, because these beauty-loving mermaid girls really couldn't imagine why there were such ugly dried corpse mermaids, and at the same time, they couldn't help but guess in their hearts whether they would become like this after they died.
Seeing the sad faces of these mermaid girls, a burst of distress surged on the fifth day of the first month, hugged them one by one, and gave each of them a long kiss, so that these mermaid girls temporarily let go of their sorrow.
Just as the fifth day of the first month was about to deal with the corpses of these dried mermaids, the snake girls patrolling in front of them made another warning whistle.
The fifth day of the first month hurriedly ran over, and at the same time, the feeling of this sea area in his heart became more and more uneasy.
When Chu Wu arrived, the snake girls stretched out their hands to the sea in the distance, and Chu Wu followed their fingers and found that the sea in front of them was different from here, and the sea over there was sparkling under the sea, as if there were many shining stars in the sea over there.
This is not destined to be a calm one, and everyone who has just experienced the shock of the dried corpse mermaid looked at the glowing sea in the distance in front of them in amazement.
Chu Wu felt that the island was slowing down, which made Chu Wu secretly admire, and now Alice and the others are excellent helmsmen who know how to better control the island in any situation.
The island and the slow speed approached the glowing sea in front of him, and finally stopped at the edge of the glowing sea, and when he looked around the fifth day of the first month, the glowing sea in front of him and the dark sea behind him were like two completely different plates, and if he moved forward, he entered this glowing sea.
On the fifth day of the first month, all the women stayed in place, and he walked to the shore of the island by himself, and as soon as he took a step, he suddenly felt a tightness in his waist, and it turned out that several spider girls were spinning silk at the same time and entangled his waist, afraid that he would encounter danger in the sea.
The fifth year of the first year turned around and gave these spider girls a reassuring smile, and then took a deep breath and continued to move forward.
When he stood on the shore of the island, Chu Wu felt that he had never experienced such a strange scene, and he finally saw what was glowing in the sea.
These things are human, there are half-orcs, and there are all kinds of birds and beasts, sea and river animals.
But that's very inaccurate, because these people and animals are luminous beings that look like souls.
Chu Wu took out the ruin sword and turned his fingers into a sword, and the ruin sword suddenly flew out of its sheath towards the nearest luminous body in the sea.
After the ruin sword entered the water, it pierced the humanoid luminous body without hindrance, but this strange thing just lay on its back in the water and glanced at Chu Wu, and continued to swim aimlessly.
That's right, it's definitely the soul.
For some reason, Chu Wu's heart was very sure of his guess, and after retracting the ruin sword, he looked up again at the pillar of light in the distance, and Chu Wu felt that these souls must also be related to the thing that looked like a pillar of light in the well.
Walking back to the island, facing the inquiring eyes of all the women, Chu Wu told them what he saw and his speculation about these glowing things in the sea, and then the originally quiet crowd suddenly turned into a vegetable market, and they began to buzz with each other.
The women also wanted to take a look, and the fifth year of junior high thought about it and nodded in agreement, but the premise was that the body must be tied with spider silk, and there must be four people behind to hold the spider silk, and then they can take turns watching each other.
In fact, it is not those glowing souls who are so vigilant in the fifth day of the first month, but the fear that there will be another dry corpse mermaid suddenly sneak attack.
On the fifth day of the first month, they stayed here until all the women had seen the strange scenery in the sea, and then they all retreated and stayed away from the shoreline of the island.
Then the fifth day of the new year went to Winnie to discuss whether she could cultivate some large trees on the shore of the island first, so that the spider girls could weave webs between the trees and hit a simple protective fence.
In fact, on the question of whether to move forward, there is no need to think about it at all, it has come here, and the fifth year of junior high school can only move forward, and this is still his hope to go home, so how can he retreat.
But the fifth day of the first month did not rush into this glowing sea recklessly, but docked here temporarily, because he had to wait for all the defenses on the island to be established before advancing.
After all, there are many of his women on the island, and he must do his best to ensure their safety.
Due to the appearance of those sea souls and dried corpse mermaids, there was a faint feeling that perhaps the monsters encountered here were likely to be some undead creatures, so I am afraid that future melee fights are inevitable.
