Sleepless night!

In the exquisite and luxurious cabin, the panicked little Yod didn't even dare to blink his eyes more, and his room was brightly lit all night, and he longed to light a hundred candles and fluorite lamps!

Curled up on the bed, facing the long-sealed doors and windows and the trap behind the door, little Yod still had no sense of security in his arms, clutching the blade and crossbow in his arms.

Maybe just close your eyes and open them for a moment... The devil appeared in front of him, smiled, and politely reached out his right hand, which was hiding the blade, and then ......

A knife cuts the throat——!

Trembling through the night, and finding that he was still alive, little Yod, whose eyes were already red, carefully clenched the sword in his hand and opened the door.

And then... And he saw a sight that he would never forget!

The captain of the battleship, the officer who always looked like he was submissive, stood motionless outside his door, his head bowed and his hands behind his back, and his clothes and armor were neatly dressed.

It wasn't because of his life, of course, or how respectful he was - but a sharp sword pierced through his torso and arms, and along with the crossbow bolt that pierced his neck, nailed him to the wall of the cabin!

The withered face, the eyes that almost popped out, and the tongue sticking out of the mouth......

Little Yod twitched his throat hard, his teeth chattering, and just as he turned to the other end of the cabin, a heavy smell of blood came to his face before he reached the top of the stairs.

The cabin below... It was a resting place for sailors and soldiers.

Resisting the stench, he was terrified, and walked down the stairs step by step, and after taking two steps, his feet slipped and he almost fell directly into the cabin below.

Is it water?

That's right, even warships occasionally leak, and it's normal for a ship to have a slippery deck; Hahaha... That's a ......

A smile barely appeared on his frightened face, but when little Yod lowered his head, the only smile instantly froze at the corner of his mouth.

It's blood... It's blood that fills the entire cabin!

bulkheads, hammocks, windows, ceilings...... Everything that could be seen was stained a dark red, and a muddy pus-like liquid dripped from the hammock and ceiling, hitting little Yode's face and clothes.

Bending down, his frightened face was reflected in the blood of the stream, and he could see some strange-looking things floating on the "water", shaking with the "water waves" raised.

That's not something outlandish;

Little Yod had killed people himself, and he knew all about it.

It was bones, broken pieces of flesh and tendons, internal organs that had fallen out of the torso, human heads, eyes, severed limbs, out of the cavity of the skull......

"Ahh——!!!!h

After a moment of shock, the tension and fear that had been suppressed all night exploded instantly, and little Yode, who was tearing his clothes, fell directly to his knees in a pool of blood, screaming like crazy!

"Ahhhhh Ahh Hehehaha... Hahahahaha——!!!!ha

The shrill roar was followed by a mad laugh, laughing as he got up from the pool of blood, and rushed out of the stairwell to the deck outside the battleship.

The dawn pierces the darkness, the mist on the river of gems turns into morning dew, and the light in the sun is so dazzling that it is impossible to look at it directly.

Standing at the exit of the deck, little Yod was stunned, as if the scene in front of him and the world behind him were completely two worlds, and he had just been in a dream, and now he had woken up.

"Are you awake?"

A gentle voice came, and little Yod couldn't help but look up... The black-haired wizard leaning against the mast was sitting cross-legged on the deck, his pale face smiling at him:

"I just heard a shouting in the cabin, and I thought you were having a nightmare. ”

Little Yod opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say. Loren, with a chuckle on his lips, was wiping the short knife in his hand with a linen, the shiny blade glittering in the sunlight like a mirror.

He lowered his head and raised his hands tremblingly, and his sticky palms were still covered with dark red pus-like blood between his fingers, which was terrifying.

It's true... It's all true.

Don't continue to deceive yourself, it's not a dream at all...... This battleship, this ship, apart from himself and the madman in front of him, there is not even a living thing left on this ship!

The sailors on board, the officers and soldiers under Governor Byrne, and his own retinue and cronies... There is not a single one left, and this guy has turned it into minced meat in the blood water!

For a whole night, there were more than 100 people on a ship, and there was not even the slightest sound, not even a single person who noticed that something was wrong... He slaughtered them all!

It was only at this moment that little Yod finally understood why he was so obediently tied up and caught by himself—I am afraid that in this madman's plan, even this is just a means to deceive his trust.

Little Yode, with a dull expression, walked up to Loren with a blank look in his eyes.

Lunatic... That's right, he's a madman, he's not human at all!

"Is there any problem?" The black-haired wizard frowned slightly, throwing away the blood-stained linen in his hand: "Although I have already solved the living mouth on this ship, this is the Gem River... If we continue to delay, we will definitely be discovered. ”

"We need to bring something to get it as soon as possible, we have to abandon the ship as soon as possible, if there is nothing to do......"

"One more thing. ”

"Didn't I say that we need something to get as soon as possible, and then we'll ......."

"Loren Turin! Don't pretend to me!"

Little Yode, who was almost devastated, couldn't bear it anymore completely, pounced on him and grabbed the black-haired wizard's collar, his expression twitched and twisted to the extreme: "Let you go, break with the family, betray the Chamber of Commerce... I've done everything you've asked me to do, and now I'm going nowhere!"

"Don't forget what you promised me - that kind of thing, that kind of thing that would make the Nine-Pointed Star Wizard Tower not dare to touch me? Even if we die together, I will never let you leave this ship for half a step!"

Fight like Kilkenny cats...... Looking at Yood's desperate threat to the point of hysteria, Loren just wanted to sneer.

Why did he die with himself?

Things have come to this point, and the initiative is long gone in his hands ... Now even if Loren leaves him alone, it is impossible for this heir of the Yode Chamber of Commerce, who has lost everything, to hurt half of his cold hair.

Of course, there are some things that both parties can know and don't need to break... What's more, I still need him to live.

The corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and the black-haired wizard suddenly grabbed his right hand, and before he could react, Little Yode was startled, and felt a piercing cold in his right hand, flowing down his arm and into the top of his head.

"Uhhhh——!!!!h

With a heart-rending scream, little Yode's eyes rolled and his entire body twitched violently, as if the whole person was about to crack!

"Bang ——!"

The expressionless Loren let go of his hand, and the twitching little Yode collapsed to the ground, and he was drenched in cold sweat, clenching his right hand, and a strange black mark suddenly appeared on his originally empty wrist.

"Are you trying to kill me?!"

"Kill you, how could I possibly want to kill you?" Loren shook his head and sighed, "That's what I'm talking about—of course, I've moved a little, and within a certain range, I can roughly confirm where you are and if you're still alive, just in case." ”

"This ......" raised his right hand tremblingly, and little Yode, who collapsed to the ground, stared at the mark on his wrist: "What the hell is this?!"

"Something that all wizards dream of, and can even kill for it...... It's something that all the clergy and Knights of the Holy Cross can't wait to get rid of. ”

"With it, the Corona family and the Wizard Tower will never doubt your sincerity, of course... If you are found out by the people of the Holy Cross Church, it should not end very well. ”

With his hands behind his back, Loren had a meaningful smile on his face:

"It's just... The Holy Grail of the Nine-Pointed Star!"
