Chapter 291: Sea of Silence

Karn's bedding story was told late, and none of them woke up when Sarah went to wake them up for dinner.

She pushed the door open and entered, and saw the two of them sleeping tightly together, with only a blanket draped over their bodies, and the parts that exposed the blanket were all naked. And the blanket is so thin that you can look at the silhouette and imagine what kind of tight-fitting position it is.

Sarah's heart beat faster before she closed the door and withdrew.

Anyway, the two-week voyage has just begun, and there is no need to disturb their schedule.

It's a fish soup made from fresh fish that I just caught this morning.

Sarah made her way to the captain's room, where the table was filled with maps and charts of all the realms near the Watcher's Sea. Drawings are marked with bathymetry, tides, and seabed features.

But there was no information about Shadow Isle, and although Karn had assured him, the trip was still full of unknowns.

But the voyage wasn't as far as her trip to Noxus, and it took her three weeks to get to Longmen.

Shadow Island is located southeast of Bilgewater, and the straight-line distance between the two is only half the distance between the Immortal Fortress and Bilgewater.

However, geographically, Piraeus Port is indeed the closest human settlement to Shadow Island, so it bears the brunt of the Eclipse Night every year.

Sarah spends almost every year at Eclipse Night in Bilgewater, but she hides in a sturdy house almost every time, following the old man's teachings, and never goes out that night.

Shamefully, the result of this is that she doesn't know when the spirits will come or when they will leave. The only images of Eclipse Night are the suffocating roar of the undead that night and the devastated city and the corpse shipwrecks floating in the bay the next morning.

As she headed to Shadow Island, she suddenly wanted to figure out what the undead she was about to face.

The door opened quietly, and she didn't look up to know who it was.

Only those few dared to enter the house without knocking, and she had just seen two of them, sleeping together.

"Captain, what's the matter with me?" Raven pushed the door in, a little fish soup still hanging from the corner of his mouth.

Sarah is not that much of a detail-minded person, and simply ignores this flaw.

"Brother Raven, you should have lived through the Night of the Soul Eclipse."

"Of course, I've been through it several times." Raven patted the skull on the hilt of his sword, not at all modest.

"I'm talking about the kind of confronting the undead."

"Well, not really." Raven scratched his head: "Every year on the Night of Soul Eclipse, a group of fools are taken away, and those who can survive are all shrewd people. ”

"What are you playing again?"

"Wise people know not to run around on the night of the Eclipse of Souls, and those who are not smart will die."

"Dude, you're so humorous." Sarapi doesn't smile.

Raven understood Sarah's sarcasm: "Let's get down to business." Eclipse Night, you're asking about this thing, there is really no record of it in history, because it has only spread to Bilgewater in recent decades, and Bilgewater has never suffered from Eclipse Night before. This is the misfortune of our generation. ”

"Spread?"

"Yes, it's proliferation." Raven replied, "At first, the black fog just spread over the sea, capturing the lives of the lost at sea. It grew slowly, and it took a thousand years to get to the periphery of Beaglewater. But in recent years it has extended its tentacles to the port of Bilgewater, taking the lives of many fishermen, and thus accelerating the rate of growth. ”

"Such an evil sect?"

Raven replied solemnly, "I've heard that those who die on the night of the Eclipse of Souls will be cursed, and when the black mist fades, their souls will be taken away, leaving only their corpses. And every time the black mist gets a new soul, it spreads farther away. Now, when the night of the Eclipse falls, all of Bilgewater will be in danger. In a few years, the Python Islands are expected to suffer. ”

"Is that so...... Sarah nodded thoughtfully, "Raven, speaking of which, what do you think of our operation?" ”

"You're talking about Brother Karn's plan, right?" Raven pulled a toothpick out of his clothes and began to pick his teeth, as he weighed his words.

But thinking that there was nothing I couldn't say to Sarah, I just said what I thought in my heart.

"Seriously, I think it's outrageous, people who don't have water in their heads would never come up with such a bad idea."

As soon as Raven spoke, Sarah's willow eyebrows suddenly furrowed.

Just as she pondered whether Raven's words were inappropriate, Raven immediately changed her words, and her expression changed as quickly as her face changed.

"But that's what I said to my subordinates - the little brother's plan, which usually sounds crazy, didn't it all come true in the end? Think about it, underwater monsters and deep-sea titans, do you believe these things exist until you see them? And he not only made them appear, but also used them to take out the enemy, which is amazing. ”

Raven finally gritted his toothpick and provoked up and down: "Shadow Island will definitely not be safe, but if I finally come back and rely on the Night of Soul Eclipse to launch Plankla, then I can blow it for the rest of my life." ”

"He knows a lot more about these gods and ghosts than us, so he can't admire them." Sarah's expression finally freezes into a smile.

That's why she needs Raven, Raven's emotional intelligence is quite high, and she can help deal with many things without her saying it.

"Is there anything else, Captain?"

"No, you go get busy."

When the door closed, Sarah lay back in her chair.

From the conversation just now, she learned that the black fog will suck people's souls and must be kept away.

But this bit of information is still too little. Raven wasn't a professional after all, and he had to ask Karn when he got back.

……

As for billiards, Kai'Sa had a lot of fun at first, but the more she got to the back, the more boring it became.

Because they had been sailing on the open sea for more than ten days, they were approaching the legendary Shadow Isle, and in the meantime something had happened that made it impossible for her to finish her pastime.

It was her partner who made the decision to let a boatload of people go to Shadow Isle at risk, and she was one of the few people on the ship who could resist the undead, and she had to be vigilant, but responsible, to protect the ship.

"It's been two whole days, and we haven't had a hint of wind in our sails, and the boat can't feel moving, so when will we see the land if we go down like this?"

Kai'Sa heard the crew complaining to Raven on deck, and she looked out to sea.

All you can see is seawater.

The surface of the sea is as calm and dark as a mirror, and the air seems to be frozen, and no whisper of the breeze can be heard.

Even if she didn't know how to sail, she knew that such calm waters were a sign of disaster.

She couldn't help but look at Karn on the foredeck, who was scanning the ocean in the distance with his binoculars, looking for any clues that might be used to discern direction.
