22, Evil Curse

Dawn fell on the sea again.

Hoffa was sitting cross-legged in the cabin, meditating deeply, when a shrill whistle suddenly sounded outside the cabin.

The sound was not like the bells of the ship's rooms, nor the noise of sailors playing cards on deck.

It's the sound of an alarm.

He got up from the bed. Three steps and two steps to the deck.

The weather was foggy at the moment, the air was filled with the dreary pre-rainstorm, and there were several sailors with binoculars standing on the deck.

"What happened?"

Hoffa asked the sailor.

The sailor saw him coming, and without hesitation, handed him the binoculars, "Someone is coming." ”

Hoffa couldn't help but take the binoculars and look into the distance, and in the round lenses, he could see a warship riding the wind and waves in the mist, it was fully armed, and the turret on the top was as grand as a steel building.

Compared to the warship, his freighter was as small as a mouse at the feet of an elephant.

It is clear that this is a German warship.

He put down his binoculars with a stunned expression and clung to the railing.

It is not difficult to accurately locate a ship in the vast sea, but it just so happens that the ship has its own, and it is such a big battle, it is obvious that he knows his position before he does this.

He scolded in a low voice: "Damn, why can these guys be so accurate?"

When he first started on the road with Chloe, he vaguely knew that the German wizards were not giving up. But they obviously ran to the sea, and they still lingered.

He felt that something was wrong.

At this time, Chloe and the widow also ran to the deck because of the sirens and began to ask the sailors what had happened.

Hoffa's gaze turned to Chloe, staring at her for a long time.

How do those people know their location?

When I was in Paris, I was able to find my home and escape to the sea, and it is still the same.

He walked over to Chloe's side.

When the nun saw him coming, she was still angry about what had happened yesterday and ignored him, but it was the little widow Mary who grabbed him by the arm at the first time.

"What's going on, is there a German wizard who wants Frank, and have you lied to me!!"

She didn't know Chloe's identity and abilities, but she assumed that the warship was coming to find Frank.

Hoffa didn't answer the upset widow, just looked at Chloe.

Chloe was not angry: "What do you think I do?"

"Is there something on you?"

"Huh?"

"Have they done anything to you, otherwise how could they always chase you so accurately?"

"I don't know. ”

I don't know...... He circled Chloe, closed his eyes, and observed each other only with his mind. Sure enough, in the black and white spiritual world, he could see a faint trace of black gas behind the pure white Chloe, which was very faint and couldn't be seen without looking carefully.

Everyone else didn't understand his eyes closed, but the nun was angry, and no one liked the almost X-ray feeling.

She clasped her arms: "Don't tell me you suspect that I leaked the unknown." ”

Hofa opened his eyes, pulled her into a corner without saying a word, and lifted her clothes. This time, he gasped and stumbled back two steps.

I saw that Chloe's originally fair and smooth girl's back was densely packed with five or six pairs of eyes, which kept blinking, and around those eyes, there were many blue and red vein-like blood vessels.

Looking at the wriggling eyeballs, and the blue-red tentacles behind them, he couldn't help but feel stomach juice.

With the touch of the demons, it's no wonder that those dark wizards can pinpoint themselves.

In the year since he came out of Hogwarts, he has been exposed to a lot of strange curses, and I have to say that although this is not a top danger, it looks one of the most disgusting.

Chloe didn't know the horror on her back, all she knew was that Hoffa had suddenly pulled herself into a corner and lifted her clothes, even her corset.

As a woman, she tugged down on her clothes, her face turned blue with anger: "Get out, Bach, what are you doing!?"

"Don't you feel it?" asked Hoffa, leaning against the wall.

"I just feel like you're a bastard home!!"

Under the nun's makeup, the bruises on her forehead burst out.

"On the back. ”

"I've been a little itchy on my back for the past few days, but what's the matter with you, do I have to tell you about the itch on my back!?"

"See for yourself. ”

He didn't want to explain to her, so he just pressed down on the bulkhead of the cabin.

The metal cabin was transformed into a triangular-shaped space that housed Chloe, and the interior of the triangular prism was transformed into a smooth, refractive mirror.

Within three seconds, a high-pitched, fearful scream came from the triangular prism.

Hoffa raised his hand to remove the Transfiguration, and the triangular prism slowly disappeared.

At this moment, the nun no longer had the anger she had just had, and she sat down on the ground, her face pale, and she had a hellish expression.

"How..... How...... What's going on!?"

"The Eye Demon Touch," Hoffa explained softly, "can parasitize on living beings, feed on sight and information, and share the location of the parasitic with the spellcaster's dark magic. Those dark wizards must have planted marks on you when they came into contact with you. ”

"I ...... I don't know at all...... Gross!"

Before she could finish speaking, she threw herself on the railing and vomited at the surface.

Mary poked her head out of the corner, she thought that Hoffa was going to do Chloe badly, but when she saw Chloe vomiting on the railing, she rushed out and patted Chloe on the back with concern.

"What's wrong with you?"

Chloe said hoarsely with tears in her eyes, "Help me.... Lift the curse. ”

Hoffa looked into the distance with a solemn expression and shook his head.

"No, not right now. ”

"Why not!?"

Chloe grabbed Hoffa's arm hard.

"Hurry up, the thought of having that stuff on me..."

As she spoke, she was about to throw up again.

"Those people must have located your position through the Eye Demon, but I'm afraid that our actions these days are completely in their eyes.

If it is lifted now, then the last place that the Eye Demon observes is this ship, and they will definitely come to this ship, and once they do, no one on this ship will be doomed. ”

Chloe calmed down a little.

"Then what do you mean......."

"Stay away from this ship, at least turn their attention away and lift the curse elsewhere at sea before returning to this ship. ”

"Good. ”

Chloe didn't have the slightest idea of refusal.

The two reached the edge of the ship, and Hoffa untied a small lifeboat from the cargo ship, threw it into the sea, and jumped on it himself.

The group of sailors and armed thugs were stunned.

"Big brother, what are you going to do?"

"Just run away, you're too cold-blooded!"

Some even cried: "Don't leave us!"

......

Obviously yesterday they were still in a tense confrontation, today they use Hoffa as a lifesaver, looking at him like the Romans look at Caesar.

Hoffa roared in annoyance: "What's the noise, I'll be back in a while!"

There was no effect, and the battleship in the distance was like a sword of Damocles hanging over everyone's heads.

Convinced that Hoffa was going to leave them alone, they began to untie the lifeboats. The freighter was in chaos for a while, with children crying, sailors yelling, and thugs raising guns.

"Enough!"

Chloe roared again, her voice seemingly containing some kind of extremely calming effect.

"I'm not going to leave you behind, but now we have to lure those people away, or none of you will be able to escape. ”

"How do I know you're telling the truth?" shouted a sailor.

"In case of them

Chloe: "I ......"

At this time, Hoffa sneered again, and he sneered mercilessly: "Do you think that in your capacity, if they really want to arrest them, it is necessary for them to send out warships? They are looking for us, and you should be glad that we are leaving now." ”

His words contained a certain insulting quality, but they inexplicably calmed the crowd. They all left the ship, as if they were eager to distance themselves from him so that he could run away sooner.

However, just as they were about to leave, the widow Mary suddenly climbed on the string of the boat and shouted, "Wait a minute. ”

Chloe and Hofa Qiqi stood on the lifeboat and looked up.

"Take me with you!!"

Mary shouted, her white face of a porcelain doll sweating with relish.

"This ......"

Hoffa hadn't expected her to make such a decision. Obviously, what he said is already very clear, how can there still be people who are obsessed.

Chloe: "You wait for me on the boat, and I'll be back in a moment." ”

"No way!"

Mary glanced back at the crew, gritted her teeth, and without saying a word, picked up her skirt, jumped off the deck, and landed on the lifeboat.

Rolling over and getting up, she grabbed Chloe's arm with a pale face: "I'll go with you, dear." ”

"You ......"

Chloe tried to persuade her, but Hofa stopped her.

"If you like, follow it. ”

After taking a deep look at her, he started the motorboat directly and galloped off into the distance.

......

......

On the battlecruiser Scharnhorst.

The three black-robed wizards sat cross-legged on the ground, their eyes closed, and some inexplicable power connected the spirits of the three together.

Mance, on the other hand, walked around them with his hands behind his back.

After a while, one of the black-robed men opened his eyes, "Left, deviated thirty degrees from the intended course and headed southeast." ”

"Abandon ship and leave, look away. ”

Mance rubbed his chin, "It seems that the Grindelwald student has discovered the magic mark on Miss Lemay." ”

"What to do, which one to chase?"

"Leave Lemay and Bach to Major Dominique, and we'll take control of the ship. Mance said.

"What are you doing with a ship without Lemay?"

"Then you don't know. ”

Mans laughed: "For someone like Lemay, leaving someone else to run away alone is more uncomfortable than killing her directly."

So, don't look at her leaving now, but she's definitely going back. As long as we take control of that ship, sooner or later she will come back to us on her own initiative. ”

......

......

In rough seas, three speedboats broke through the waves and sped away against a lifeboat in the distance.

Ten nautical miles away from the cargo ship, Hoffa stopped his lifeboat, pulled a dagger from his waist, and looked at Chloe: "Do you take it off yourself or ......?"

Looking at the dagger's glittering spike, Chloe swallowed her saliva, her face turning pale.

"Is there no other way?" she said bitterly. ”

Hoffa put down his dagger and turned his gaze to Mary, who was covering her mouth in confusion, "Why don't you come." ”

"I'll come... Why?"

Mary looked at the dagger in front of her and looked dazed, "Shouldn't we run away?"

"Give her an operation. ”

Hoffa shoved the knife into Mary's hand: "Gouge out her eyes from the back." ”

With that, he turned away and stopped looking at the two of them.

Mary looked at the small dagger in her hand, not knowing what was happening.

Chloe let out a long sigh, took off her bodice through her coat, handed her the bodice, and then knelt on the deck and lifted her clothes.

"Ah!!h

But when she saw Chloe's back, Mary was so frightened that she threw the white corset and dagger in her hand straight out, and screamed while covering her mouth.

"What's that!?"

Chloe: "Follow the dark arts, quick, get rid of it and we'll go back." ”

"Don't ..... Other..... Don't let me do it!"

Mary covered her face and kicked her legs back to the edge of the lifeboat.

"Mary, that thing won't eat you!"

"That's not going to work, you let him get it!"

She pointed at Hoffa and shouted without hesitation.

Hoffa sighed and turned to pick up the dagger on the ground.
