Chapter 38: A Strange Wraith
"The sea...... Revenge!!"
The low roar of the wraiths of the deep sea echoed through the cabin, breaking the chains that were wrapped around his body, and the sight made Donald frown again.
He found that he underestimated this deep sea wraith, although the action and attack frequency were only average, but this big man in the dark had extremely outstanding defense and soul power, in short, Donald's spell was a little helpless, and the thunder split could only leave a dented black mark on its shell, not to mention the scorching rays.
The Flame Burst is a skill that requires energy accumulation, Donald can't spend an hour with it here, someone will definitely call the police in the previous chaos, and he even thinks that the police will arrive here in a few minutes, and then let people watch his spell performance?
Donald had a vague hunch that if he continued to grind with it like this, there would still not be much result, because he hadn't found a real way to deal with this guy!
Perhaps having the same idea as Donald, the Deep Sea Wraith actually chose to turn around and leave after shattering the energy chains.
It's not that the void disappears, and Donald noticed that when it left, it actually smashed the hole where the previous person had escaped, in order to squeeze himself out.
"Solid armor?"
Donald withdrew the sonic toad, noticing the awkward-looking movements of the Deep Wraith, its full body visible as the light from outside penetrated through it.
There is not a single gap left on the body, and he wears a wetsuit that looks like a diving suit, but it is made of all steel, as long as he enters the sea, he keeps it and sinks to the bottom, and he never wants to float.
When the Wraiths of the Deep came out of the wreckage of the old ship, Donald took a few steps forward and passed the previous roof breach before realizing that the rain had stopped.
Does the weather affect its actions?
The two recordings I listened to before seemed to be in the time of the storm......
And when the rain stopped, the spirit was noticeably sluggish and evasive.
Donald stood at the breach smashed by the Deep Sea Wraith and watched it all the way to the edge of the harbor, and then jumped directly into the sea, and when he chased it out, there was no trace of the Deep Sea Wraith.
Did it leave?
Donald had a hunch that it would definitely reappear, and this time the shipwreck salvage might bring back more than just a shipwreck.
It's a vengeful spirit desperate for revenge!
The previous attack on the vice president of the Grebe Chamber of Commerce was too deliberate, and if it was an accident, Donald absolutely did not believe it.
"Before you show up the next time, I'll find a way to defeat you. ”
The Deepsea Wraith could not be defeated simply by the spell blast he possessed now, and it was the first time that Donald had encountered such an existence, and it was also the first time that he had seen no movement in the face of his own round of spell bombardment.
I saw its back when it left before, and those depressions even repaired themselves.
That physical armor is also something that Donald can't understand, why a resentful spirit can have a physical armor, and it also shows some symbiotic properties.
Out of the hole, Donald wears a mask and learns to jump into the sea like the Wraith, his swimming level is average, but it's not a sonic toad, he uses this cargo as a skateboard, and no one noticed it when Donald sneaked ashore from the nearest port.
It's just that I'm almost soaking wet, full of doubts, and I'm ready to return to Royal Delorian to change my clothes first.
As a result, as soon as I got to the door of the apartment, I saw Professor Cook and Marina waiting under the eaves on the first floor.
Somewhat helplessly, he spread his hands at them, Donald knew that he must not be able to hide his identity, and he ran out in front of the two of them just now, and Donald was ready.
"That's right, I'm a wizard, Cook taught you that metal ball isn't broken, and Marina, your guess is right, I did get that meat, but it's true that there's no more, I've only met that creature once so far, I want you to keep it a secret, because I'm going to work in the government in a few days, and if you spread the news, I'll be in trouble, and the government will probably take certain measures against you." ”
In order not to make the two of them think too much, Donald explained everything as soon as he came up.
At this time, it was Professor Cook's turn and Marina who were a little at a loss, and after pursuing the conjecture for so long, the other party suddenly admitted his identity in this way, which was a strange feeling.
"You do have access to some special energies?"
Professor Cook asked impatiently.
"I don't think this is a good place to talk, I'm soaking wet, I need to go change my clothes and see you in the lab later?"
It's too embarrassing to stand at the door of the teaching assistant's apartment and talk to people.
When he changed into a clean set of clothes and returned to the laboratory, the two of them had been looking forward to it for a long time.
"I know some spells, but the level is not high, and I am only the bottom part of the people until now, and I have to consult others many times."
Donald hasn't yet completed his talent system, and he's still a little short of the power level, so it's not a fake to call himself a person at the bottom.
"In the previous shipwreck...... What kind of existence is it?"
With the real wizard in front of him, there was no need to ask many questions, and the topic eventually returned to the wreck.
This is what Donald expected.
"There's a deep wraith in it, don't ask me what a deep wraith is, it's a term I heard an hour ago from another man who entered the wreck. ”
Moved his ass and changed to a more comfortable position.
"Then you got rid of that...... Are you going to wreck a ship to fight it?"
Marlena clasped her hands together, looking a little nervous, she couldn't think of the battle, but she could feel the danger.
"It's just partly that I saw someone who had the same thoughts about this deep sea wraith as I did, and I made a sudden move to prevent him from getting the first step, and the result was that neither of us caught or destroyed the deep sea wraith. ”
Speaking of which, Donald subconsciously recalled the peculiar suit of armor.
"It's powerful?"
"Hmm...... Suffice it to say, its attack is weak, but its defense is surprisingly solid, and it's a strange thing that my spells don't have much effect on it......"
Donald hadn't figured it out until now, and after a little thought, he looked up at the other two and said,
"Do you know anything about maritime affairs, I mean, how much do you know about the recent shipwrecks of the Grebe Chamber of Commerce?"
Whether it's the previous two recordings or the clips heard in the wreck, the deep wraith repeatedly mentions words like revenge and rage, and with the fact that it deliberately targeted the Grebe Chamber of Commerce today, it can't help but wonder if there is something hidden in it.
"I've collected some of this information, and it's on the table in the basement that it's all about five shipwrecks in the last few days. ”
Professor Cook was particularly interested in the shipwreck because of the recordings, and in his capacity it was not difficult to obtain such information.
Marina quickly brought back the materials and arranged them on the empty lab table.
The time of these five shipwrecks is not clear, because they are at sea, and the Hainan navigation diary cannot be recorded all day, and they are generally recorded by the captain of the ship at a certain time period, but from the cargo and daily reports, it can be inferred from which day the ship was wrecked.
"Is there a weather station in Dmingham, can I check the weather at sea on a previous date?"
At this time, the three of them were around the table, and Donald's aura obviously overwhelmed the other two, and as a special existence, there was no doubt that he became the leader of the conversation.
"I don't know if there is a weather station in Dmingham about the weather conditions at sea, but there should be a record of this in the maritime department. ”
In addition to the city's weather forecast, Demingham's maritime department also has a special broadcast of weather conditions at sea, and it is updated in real time because of the changeable weather.
"Help me to inquire about the weather conditions at sea for these 3 dates. ”
Five shipwrecks, two of which were confirmed by HNA recordings of the sinking of two ships in a stormy weather, Donald wanted to know what the condition of the other three was.
"Hey, is it the Maritime Bureau? I'm a teacher at Royal Delorraine, and Professor Cook wants to know ......."
The response from the Maritime Bureau, whether it was a weather consultation for teaching purposes or a call in the name of the Royal Delorea, was quite swift, and they did keep a record of the weather during that period.
Moderate rain, torrential rain, torrential rain!
"That's right...... I've noticed that the Deep-Sea Wraith is weather-dependent, and I confronted it during the shipwreck, and when it rains, it behaves aggressively, and as soon as the rain stops, it chooses to return to the sea...... In other words, it is not a coincidence that the rainy weather is an incentive for its actions, but it is only on rainy days that this spirit will start its own actions. ”
"What action?"
"Of course it's revenge, how many ships do Dmingham go to sea every day, why is there such a coincidence that the ships of the Gleb Chamber of Commerce have accidents one after another? ”
The Oswei Sea is so big, and I can't go back to the time when I woke up, I happened to crash into the ship of the Grebe Chamber of Commerce,
"There is only one possibility, this wraiful, to only attack the ships of the Gleb Chamber of Commerce...... When was the first shipwreck...... Three months ago, Marina, can you say that you mentioned to me about the scandal at the Grebe Chamber of Commerce half a year ago?"
"Of course there was no problem, the situation was ......"
This time Marina's narration is more detailed, and Donald listens to her while he takes a pencil from the side and paints on the back of the paper.
By the time Marina finished speaking, Donald's painting had a rough idea.
"Do you know what this is?"
The image on the screen is the appearance of the physical armor on the deep sea wraith's body before.
