Chapter 296: The Ghost Ship
"Captain, there's another ghost ship up ahead." In the wind and waves, the gray sea is blurry, and it is impossible to see it really. The faintly heard ghost screams, the cold breath as water hit, making people's fingers numb.
"Hang out the banner of the Shadow Princess and let those damn ghosts fuck off."
Adventurers in the ocean, after the popularization of flying machines, shipping that should have been buried has ushered in another glorious moment.
The sea is covered in ghost fog, ghost ships are infested, and the undead in the sea resurrect more monsters, form a territory, and occupy the land as king.
At the same time, there are a lot of strange treasures in the sea, as long as you find one, you can make ordinary people eat and drink for a lifetime.
What is the danger of ghost ships with great benefits.
Underneath the reward there will be brave men, and most of these brave men have become members of the ghost ship.
Among them, there are lucky people who return from treasure hunting and embark on the pinnacle of life.
In the Ocean Expedition Group, there are many companies that specialize in this business.
Those who dare to deal with the undead have two brushes. One of the largest of them, the Golden Empire, has developed ships with superior performance, rune protection systems and runic weapons that can deal considerable damage to ghosts, making it a dream ship for adventurers.
There are also lucky ones who have established a connection with the high-level ghosts in the sea, and the entourage can hire a ghost army to escort them, and they can use the other party's banner to fake the tiger. Ordinary ghosts do not infect.
Today was not an ordinary time, the captain hoisted the flag of the Shadow Princess, and the ghost ship in front of him still ignored the collision.
"Captain, what should I do?"
"Prepare for battle, activate the rune cannon."
In the center of the hull, a square box opened, and inside was a silver bright axe, a double-sided crescent axe, which was crawling with lightning like a small tadpole, and looked like a beating rune.
The ghost ship turned into light and shadow, passing through the hull, and suddenly many crew members pinched their necks, stared at red eyes, solidified into ice sculptures, and in the white mist, their souls could be faintly seen crying and being pulled away.
The captain stood in front of the rune cannon and shouted, "Get out of here." ”
The ghost ship turned its head and rammed again, the crew screamed, dodged like headless flies, and some even jumped off the ship in fright, the whitish corpses boiled in the sea looked like ghosts, with sharp hooks on their wrists, pulling the crew to sink to the bottom of the sea, and blood-red flowers floated one after another.
The captain screamed and pressed the switch on the box: "Rune Cannon, activate." ”
The tadpole on the double-edged axe burst into lightning, and a streamer flew out and fell from the sky, splitting the ghost ship in half. The double-edged axe flew back and stuck in its place.
The ghost ship screamed and wailed, cracking open an unhealable wound that slowly disintegrated.
A large number of undead flew away, and the white mist was a hundred times thicker, and they wanted to escape from the hull of the ship.
The ghost ship burst, and the undead flew out, flying densely towards the yang-rich humans.
On the big ship, sailors rushed out in all directions, took out swords, guns and other weapons, carved with simple runes or blessings of special energy, and fought with the undead hidden in the white mist.
The screams of the goblins resounded throughout the sea, and ships dozens of miles away heard it and immediately walked back to avoid it.
In addition to the sound of ghosts, as the waves drifted away, even the blackened seabirds disappeared, and the fish lurked, and all the sounds were extinct.
Four days later;
On the beach in Beimizhou, four white and tender children, who looked to be four or five years old, were playing with sand and splashing with seawater, and their chubby hands and feet were flapping and laughing.
"You see, there is a man on the sea."
The child looked at a blue hat in the distance, and below it was a floating corpse.
Thousands of meters away, in the white spray, children can tell at a glance.
"It's really a person, we've never seen a real person, hurry up and rescue it, let us see what a person looks like."
The child in yellow clothes is the most anxious, jumping into the sea, like a swimming fish shuttling past. After a while, he came back with the floating corpse.
I saw that the body of the 'floating corpse' was full of bubbling wounds, the white wounds were covered with wrinkles, the breath was weak, and the breathing was weak and could not be heard.
"There are treasures."
The 'corpse' glowed, and the child turned over with all his hands and feet, holding a dagger with a beautiful pattern in his hand, and the light came out of the dagger.
"The first thing I discovered, the treasure is mine."
"Shi Er." It seems that the eldest child pretends to be old-fashioned to stop the active child.
"His last breath is hung by this dagger, and if you take the treasure, he will die immediately. The first human we met died. ”
The little boy in yellow was at a loss: "Then what should I do?" ”
Behind the beach was the woods, and the kid in green ran into it in disappointment, and after a while he came back with fruit the size of his head.
"Big tree fruit."
The other children's eyes also lit up, and they opened the fruit and poured it into juice and poured it into their mouths.
In the process, the white little hands are covered with sand, and there are no taboos. The flesh of the red and bright fruit is tender and is pinched black by them.
The fruit had a miraculous effect, and after the man drank it, a strong heat emanated from his chest, and white gas came out of his clothes all over his body.
Like a flame burning in the chest, burning all over the limbs, and finally rushing to the head, the face turned red, as if the furnace was burning. The man rolled over with a scream, and opened his mouth to spew out a cloud of hot air that burned the sand on the beach to black.
"Ahh The man kept spitting out, feeling like he had a hundred pounds of sand in his mouth.
A group of young boys gathered in a circle, blinking and watching with wide, curious eyes.
"Hey, are you really human?"
Shi Youxing spat a few times, feeling better, saw a group of children next to him, and saw the children's dirty little hands full of sand, and immediately knew how the sand came from.
"Kid, did you save me?"
When the four little boys heard this, they turned around and ran away, and discussed in a 'low voice' around them: "He called us children. ”
"What is a child, can you play?"
"He treats us like human beings."
"Let's pretend to be human, okay with him?"
"I agree."
Shi Youxing rolled his eyes, the little boy was cute, but his voice was very loud, his voice was like thunder, and their whispers were so loud that ordinary children couldn't roar so loudly with all their might.
"These little ones aren't human?"
Shi Youxing thinks about it, this is the beach, behind it is the primeval forest, a group of such small children, white and pure, without an adult to accompany them, if it is a human being, it is strange. It doesn't seem like they're evil, at least their own lives were saved by them.
In addition to the taste of sand in the mouth, there is also a sweet, energetic power, which is the feeling of taking high-quality spiritual objects, and then look at the half melon thrown in the sand, it is the thing that rescued him, but it was ruined by this little guy, it is a pity.
