Chapter 37: The Trap

'Everything, what's going on here?' Sheldon asked.

'Everything is in order, ready to sail.'

'Well, princess, you guys will follow this Captain Hawke aboard, and he will naturally arrange a hiding place for you when you get there.'

'Won't you come with us?' The princess asked Sheldon.

'No, the organization knows about our relationship, and has been keeping an eye on my actions lately, I was already very risky to go out of town to see you last night, and if I don't go back tonight, it will arouse their suspicions. But don't worry, when the limelight has passed a little bit, I will naturally find a way to contact you.'

The princess nodded and patted Sheldon with some emotion: 'Then you should be more careful.'

'Princess, too, may 'Chaos' bless your grievances as soon as possible.'

After saying goodbye to Sheldon, a few of us came to the shore, and with the help of the crew, we got on the ship one after another, the cabin was small and old, and I don't know if it was really impossible to get a good ship or deliberately so easy to avoid people's eyes, after a few of us sat down, the crew began to be busy untying the cable and opening the boat, Ah Zi grew up in the inland and rarely took a boat, so she felt very fresh about everything after coming up, and suddenly her eyes were attracted by a shrine placed under the mast, which enshrined a bronze statue of a goddess, beautifully carved, It's lifelike.

'It's so beautiful, which god is this enshrined?' Ah Zi couldn't help but sigh.

Ellie couldn't help but sneer when she heard this: "That's Maya, the daughter of the sea god, legend has it that she has a kind heart, whenever she sees a ship at sea, she will turn into a beacon to guide the ship out of danger, and then the crew will worship her as the god of navigation on the ship, and every time before the voyage, she must be sacrificed, pray for a smooth voyage, this legend is very famous, you will never hear it, right?"

Ah Zi blushed when he heard this, shook his head and said, "No, you don't know that I grew up inland, and this is the first time I have been to the beach in my life."

Captain Hawke was on deck at this time, and when he heard this, he couldn't help laughing: 'Miss Ellie was raised in the church, and she is very knowledgeable about these myths and legends.'

'Hmm.' I couldn't help but feel moved when I heard this, and when I looked up, I saw that Ellie was also looking at me nervously, and it was obvious that we both cared about the same thing, so I hurriedly glanced at her, how smart is that girl? Immediately comprehended, pretended to be casual and smiled: "Captain, you have won the award, but in fact, this is nothing. Okay, our dear Doctor Azi, don't look at it, and obediently come back to your seat with me, or you will be able to stand it when the boat sails in a while.' Ellie said as she pulled Zi to her side, and I hurriedly stepped to Hawke's side as if nothing had happened.

"By the way, Captain, how long will it take to get to Lunaris Island from here?"

'Let's take about three hours in the direction of the wind tonight.' Hawke didn't seem to realize my intentions and replied casually.

'Oh, so the island isn't that far from here?' As I spoke, I walked around to Hawke's side, my hand slowly gripping the hilt of my sword...

'Yes, when the weather is nice, you can see it clearly from a high place.'

'Oh, in which direction?'

'It's over there...,' said Hawke, turning his head and pointing to the southwest, he didn't expect that this was the moment I was waiting for, and that my saber was already on his neck in a moment of distraction.

'Don't move!'

Almost everyone on the boat except Ellie was shocked, and Hawke hurriedly said, "Friend, what are you doing here?"

When I heard this, I couldn't help but sneer: 'Okay, Captain Hawke don't act anymore, say, who sent you?' What is the purpose!?'

'Friend, what the hell are you talking about, why can't I understand a word?'

'You're still trying to pretend to be confused, so I ask you if it's the first time we've seen each other tonight?'

'That's right.'

'That's weird, since tonight is the first time we've met, and we haven't introduced ourselves since we got on the boat, how do you know that Ellie grew up in church? Don't tell it looks like it's on a wanted warrant, it doesn't say that...'

'This...' It was only at this point that Hawke's face finally showed a look of surprise, and he was speechless for a while.

At this time, the princess and Ah Zi also realized that the situation was wrong, and hurriedly looked at Ellie in surprise, and the little girl nodded calmly: "That's right, there are not many people who know about this except the four of us, and the only one who will arrange such a big trap to lure us into the bait is possible..."

'Gorsa, because that guy who calls himself 'Hans' once eavesdropped on us on the ship...' I couldn't help but say before Ellie could finish.

Hawke's and his crew's faces changed by this point, and it seemed that things were as we expected.

'Okay, can you say that now?' Did the Gorsa group instigate all this!' As I spoke, I deliberately tightened my saber around Hawke's neck.

'Calm down, friend!' At this point, I could clearly feel Hawk's breathing in front of me start to rapid.

'I said, I said, in fact, the mastermind behind the whole thing is...'Just as Hawke was about to tell the truth of the whole thing, suddenly I heard a loud 'boom', and the hull of the ship exploded violently, and several of us were suddenly washed into the sea by the air waves, fortunately the boat had not yet opened, and the water on the shore was shallow, I was finally not injured, but my head was buzzing, and when I struggled to get up from the sea, and was trying to find the princesses and them, a huge impact hit me head-on, and knocked me back into the sea again, For a moment I felt like my bones were about to fall apart, and at the same time the sea water was pouring into my mouth, and instinctively I struggled to poke my head out of the water again, and then I saw a young man with bat wings in mid-air looking at me with a surprised face, as if he had seen something unusual.

'Stupid, how many times have you said it, black magic is useless to that guy, just bite off his neck!' All I heard was someone shouting on the shore, and the sound was all too familiar to me.

'Sheldon....' I looked in the direction the sound was coming from, and sure enough, I saw Sheldon on the shore pointing at the sky, and when we looked at each other, he immediately had a panicked look on his face. Suddenly everything became clear, the so-called sending us to Moonshadow Island for a while was a trap from the beginning, in order to lure us on the ship, and then wipe out all of us at sea, and it was this Sheldon who lured us to the bait!

'Bastard!' At this time, I only felt angry, and I didn't care about anything else, I struggled to get up, stumbled and threw myself at Sheldon, thinking that even if I couldn't take him hostage today, I would have to punch this guy a few times, otherwise it would be difficult to get out of this evil breath in my chest!

Perhaps it was because I was panicked when I found out my identity, and when he saw me running towards him, Sheldon was at first stunned and at a loss, seeing that I was less than fifty meters away from him, this guy couldn't help but exclaim: 'Stop him, stop him!'

At this time, the vampires hovering in the surrounding sky woke up like a dream and swooped towards me, but it was too late at this time, forty meters, thirty meters... I see Sheldon is close in front of me!

'Ahh Just as I was about to fly and pounce on Sheldon, I suddenly felt a sharp pain in my abdomen.
