Considering the impact of the aurora in the sky, that is, the "gaze of Cthun", on Wu Tianming's personal state, Su Ming decisively chose to prioritize self-preservation, and left this sea area as soon as possible before other accidents occurred.

Logically speaking, the "gaze of Cthun" itself has no direct damage or confusing effect, but only indiscriminately exerts unrelieved mental pressure on all creatures who are "watched".

The nature of the human body is like a bowstring, and as the mental pressure increases, this string will slowly become highly tense.

Under normal circumstances, the bowstring moves in a tense and relaxed manner, and the state is balanced through continuous circulation.

But if it remains taut, it will become very "fragile".

Once stimulated by an external force, even a tiny little bit will break the entire bowstring!

In the same way, in terms of Wu Tianming's state, staying in this sea area for a short time can still rely on his personal ability, but after a long time, his state will become worse and worse.

The best way to deal with it is to leave this sea area as soon as possible, out of the sphere of influence that "Cthun's gaze" is now enveloping, and it will naturally recover slowly.

And after the two of them finally sailed tentatively for more than an hour, a small fishing boat that finally appeared in the line of sight was "anchored", which confirmed Su Ming's guess.

The effect of the ancient god of "Cthun's gaze" theoretically does not have direct lethality, let alone destroy the creations on the technological side, and the reason why all kinds of ships completely lost contact after entering this sea area is because there is something wrong with the people on board!

Su Ming immediately quickly adjusted their sailing direction, choosing to approach the small fishing boat that was anchored on the sea without the slightest reaction!

The purpose of this trip is to investigate the problems in this sea area, and now most of the situations have been discovered by Su Ming, and what he has left is only one decisive evidence.

A piece of evidence that proves that the cause of the loss of contact with a large number of ships was not a natural disaster but a man-made disaster!

What Su Ming needed was answered in the dazzling scene that came to his face after he and Wu Tianming would anchor the boat and board the small fishing boat through the temporary trestle bridge.

"Shhh...... I'm a big slot, it's too heavy! ”

Just boarded the deck of the small fishing boat, before Su Ming could carefully investigate, Wu Tianming, who saw the scene in front of him, couldn't help but frown and scolded.

This small fishing boat parked on the sea is not too big, and it perfectly fits the situation that the missing ships are all small and medium-sized, according to Su Ming's estimates, there are only about 10 crew members of this size.

During the annual non-fishing season, in addition to inland sea fishing, these fishing boats will venture to the high seas farther offshore, as long as they avoid the movement routes of those powerful sea beasts, and simply collect seafood, the risk factor is not high, and the profits are considerable.

According to Su Ming's understanding, even if he chose to go to sea to become a crew member and sailor in the world he was in before he crossed over, because of the hard working conditions, their salaries were actually quite high.

Even if it is a low-level sailor, the average monthly income of the industry is 5 to 100,000 yuan, which is a regular phenomenon, to put it bluntly, this is a profession with high investment, high return, and high physical demand.

However, this voyage of this small fishing boat obviously encountered the worst-case scenario:

In addition to the old fishing nets and fishing equipment piled up on the deck, there are two more corpses - dry corpses that are difficult to name!

……

It was like a corpse that had been discarded on the deck at will, and the way it was now shown, even if it was just imagination, it was enough for Su Ming and Wu Tianming to feel the cruel torture that the victim had suffered when he died.

The "human form" of the entire corpse looks very complete, and the presence of the head, limbs, etc. can be clearly distinguished, and there are not even obvious fatal injuries.

There were no serious external injuries, and no vital organs were injured, but the cause of death of these two bodies could be seen at a glance by Su Ming and Wu Tianming:

"Someone by some means of unknown means, take the blood in their bodies...... Drained! Su Ming's face sank like water, and he said coldly.

Just by making up the brain, one can imagine the pain that the victim suffers before death, no matter what means or for what purpose, all the blood in the human body is extracted, which is torture within torture.

This is the evidence that Su Ming needs to find, or rather, the real reason why those ships are missing.

"Cthun's gaze" does not kill, but those mortals who have accepted the temptation of the power of the ancient gods, in order to satisfy their masters, will do anything crazy!

The situation in this sea area could not be more obvious now, and there was no doubt that the dangerous warlock organization, the Shadow Council, had not only secretly plotted the idea of making the Old Gods break the seal without all the Glory Star players being aware of it, but had already begun to put it into action!

"This sea area is used by them as a place for tentative sacrifices!"

The information Su Ming obtained from the elves in the system space was quite detailed in the introduction of the characteristics of the ancient gods.

As a collection of all the negative aspects of the Glory Star, when the three generations of the Ancient Gods were born, their abilities came from various things on the dark side.

In order to make Cthun break the seal, in addition to destroying the sealing circle and breaking the balance, there is also a very efficient way, which is to offer a "sacrifice" to the ancient gods.

In various myths and legends, people will offer the fruits of their harvest to the "god of abundance", the "god of rain" with mountain snow, and the "guardian god" with weapons and protective gear, which is not a simple ritual action.

Those so-called "gods", to be more precise, are actually a kind of condensed spirit, which provides spiritual sustenance through these embodied substances as carriers.

The ancient god Cthun, as the supreme spiritual sustenance of the "negative will", the sacrifices it accepts are naturally the power of various dark sides!

"The situation is obvious," Su Ming gritted his teeth and said slowly, "The Shadow Council has obviously found some way to communicate with the Old Gods to some extent, and they have succeeded in creating the Cthun's gaze effect in this sea. ”

"With this as a breakthrough, you can attack those innocent people who are highly nervous, and let them die in agony in extreme fear, resentment, and nervous negative emotions, which is undoubtedly the best sacrifice for the ancient gods!"

"Things are clear, it's time to start the global readiness!"
