"What? Sinking? ”

King Chuang nodded affirmatively, "I'm sure it hit it at the time, it shouldn't have been here." There's definitely something wrong with that! ”

"Let's take a closer look."

Start the speedboat and slowly move deeper into the building. Inside is a huge body of water, larger than the port of Isengard, and unlike the outside, it is roofed. On this side of the waters, there are all kinds of warships parked one after another, not only in large numbers, but also in a variety of types.

"This one looks like my Goddess!" Red Moon suddenly discovers a battleship she knows.

I quickly steered the speedboat* over. "Are you sure it's this one?"

Red Moon fought on the side of the ship: "The name is still on it!" ”

Sure enough, I also saw the name of the ship on the side of the bow. "Was this ship used before the Goddess League was merged?"

Red Moon nodded. "Yes, this is my previous flagship. But it has been sunk by the Japanese, how did it get here? ”

I turned around and asked the fog sitting behind me. "Why are the forces you talking about our own ships?"

"These are no longer your ships. This is the Lost Fleet, a fleet of ghost ships evolved from sunken ships. All the warships here are the ones that have actually survived and sunk, each with its own original name and belonging, but now they are all ghost ships. ”

Lin Yue, who came with us, asked, "If all the sunken ships are here, aren't there a lot of ships here?" ”

Fog corrected, "Not all shipwrecks are going to come here. First of all, the ships must be large enough. You see, there isn't a ship here that is very small. Secondly, the ships here must be warships, and merchant ships generally do not appear here. But not necessarily if it is an armed merchant ship. Any vessel that meets the above conditions may be present here. But not necessarily, this thing is very random, and every battleship may become a ghost ship here when it sinks, but not necessarily every one of them will become a ghost ship. After all, this place is only so big, and the shipwrecks have become ghost ships, and they can't fit here.

It seems that this is a place where a sunken battleship is randomly converted into a ghost ship, which functions like the skeleton conversion field of the Dark City's unique buildings. That skull transformation field can turn any creature into an undead creature in skeleton form, and Isenger originally planned to build one, but there were no blueprints! This thing here should be the ghost ship conversion field, looking at the number of warships here, it is close to five hundred. Based on this volume. If you give a rough estimate of how many large warships have been produced around the world so far, the actual conversion rate here is probably less than three percent. There are not many warships that can meet the conversion standards here, and with such a low conversion rate, I am afraid it will be difficult to replenish them in the future.

"This ...... Isn't this the Biling? "King Chuang suddenly discovered a new world.

Hearing Bi Ling's name, I quickly * went over with Hongyue. Although the Biling has been crashed, it was once the flagship of our fleet after all, and it has always been outstanding. The members of the Guild's Navy still miss this battleship very much, and the news that it actually appeared here and became a ghost ship is indeed a bit explosive.

When we gathered next to that battleship. I'm sure it's the Biling. Anyway, it's also the battleship I've commanded for the longest time, how can I not recognize it. I couldn't hold back the excitement in my heart, and drove slowly close to the Biling in a tandem speedboat.

He carefully looked the entire battleship up and down. The Biling, which had been turned into a ghost ship, looked rather dilapidated, and the wood on the deck and side of the ship seemed to be rotting badly. Of the ship's three mainmasts, the one behind the * actually fell down, and it was now leaning* on the mast in the middle. The sea serpentskin sail that was originally used is now a few strips of rags. And where the flag was originally hung is now hung an equally tattered piece of cloth. Because there is no wind in the building, the rag flags are pulled together and the flags are not visible.

"How has the bow image changed?" Red Moon suddenly noticed that something was different at the bow of the ship.

I immediately looked at the position of the ship's bow. Originally, the Biling was used for the Chinese totem god dragon statue, but now it is a very strange creature placed there. "What is this?" I don't recognize this thing.

Hongyue said suspiciously: "It looks like a unicorn." King Chuang and Sun Yan also supported this statement.

Lin Yue said: "It doesn't seem to be a unicorn. The Chinese unicorn is auspicious, and although the shape is mighty, there is not much hideous feeling. This thing is uncomfortable to look at, and it feels like a European evil creature.

These players are a little lacking in knowledge, and they can't see what it is after working for a long time. Even Ling and Phantom said they didn't know each other, but Phantom said that this thing was indeed a Chinese creature. In the end, I had to call the little dragon girl out. If this thing is really something in Chinese mythology, then the little dragon girl must know what it is.

The little dragon girl reacted exaggerated when she saw it, she seemed to dislike it very much.

"Do you know this thing?" I asked the little dragon girl.

"This should be the evil beast Black Qilin guarding the eighteenth layer of hell."

"Black Kirin?" Lin Yue asked, "Is there a black unicorn?" ”

The little dragon girl looked at the bow of the ship and said, "Usually the unicorn is colored, and the main colors are white, gold, green, and red. Among them, there are more white and gold, and the two colors of a boat symbolize auspiciousness and peace. The red unicorn symbolizes prosperity and abundant harvest, while the green color represents joy and happiness. Although the main colors are these four, the unicorn generally does not have a solid color, and it is mixed with some other colors in some two main colors. Monochrome unicorns are rare, and most unicorns have at least 6 to 13 colors on their bodies. Contrary to our divine dragon, the more single the color of the unicorn's body, the stronger the power. The three-color unicorn basically already has the strength that those immortals have a headache for, and the two-color unicorn is even more powerful. And this monochrome unicorn. As far as I know, there has been one so far. ”

Red Moon pointed to the bow of the ship: "Is that the black ground?" ”

"Yes." The little dragon girl confirmed everyone's guesses. "The appearance of a monochrome unicorn should have been a good thing. After all, this is the unicorn is very kind and gets along well with most creatures. And they are very sympathetic and often bring a lot of benefits to everyone, basically no creature will hate the unicorn. But. The little dragon girl accentuated her tone. Black is an unlucky color and generally symbolizes death, disease, and decay. So this little unicorn was criticized as soon as it was born. Many forces thought that he should be killed before he was still young. There had never been a monochrome unicorn before, and no one knew how powerful his power would be. If it's just gold or red, it's black. ”

"He was killed and exiled to the eighteenth layer of hell because of his bad color?" Lin Yue guessed.

Xiaolongnu said: "The single * color is not good for him, because there has been a three-color unicorn with one-third of the body black, and the result is also very kind, and no misfortune has happened." So just black is at most uncomfortable for others, and no one will really do anything to him. ”

"Then how did he end up in the eighteenth floor of hell?"

"It's because of his horns and teeth. As I said earlier, unicorns are kind animals. Although there are teeth. But it was all flat, and there were no canines at all. ”

"So Kirin doesn't eat meat?" I asked.

The little dragon girl nodded: "Not only are his teeth flat, but his horns are similar." Although the horns of the unicorn are large, they are wrapped in a thick layer of flesh like antlers. The whole horn is blunt and pointless, and it is not lethal at all. ”

Lin Yue whispered: "Sure enough, it's a kind creature." ”

Xiaolongnu continued: "Here's the problem. The horns and flat teeth wrapped in the pads are considered to be a sign of the kindness of the Kirin, and the thicker the pads, the kinder the Kirin. However, the teeth of this black unicorn are like our divine dragons, all of them are barbed fangs, and they are very large. To make matters worse, his horns are not the only ones that don't have the slightest pad of meat. Instead, it is as sharp as a sword. These traits manifested a month after his birth, and everyone was taken aback at the time. No one had ever seen such a lethal horn. And when he was six months old, it was discovered that his paws had grown out of the flesh. The claws of the other unicorns are all like cat's claws that can be retracted, but his claws are pointed and long and cannot be retracted. ”

"In other words, there is a freak in the unicorn."

"Almost." The little dragon girl nodded again. "Everyone was alarmed, thinking it was a harbinger of a catastrophe. Later, some immortals mentioned killing the black unicorn, but some immortals objected, and the two sides were deadlocked. In the end, it was decided to leave him to guard the eighteen layers of hell. Hell actually has only seventeen floors, and the eighteenth and seventeenth floors are not connected. The eighteenth floor is a one-way space, you can only enter and not exit, no matter who enters, don't think about coming out, so there is a saying that you will never be able to exalt into the eighteenth layer of hell. The Black Qilin was sent to guard the eighteenth layer of hell, but in fact it was equivalent to being exiled permanently. ”

I concluded, "So this black unicorn is the most evil and inauspicious thing? ”

Xiaolongnu said: "Generally speaking, I think so. ”

"Then what does it mean to have this thing on this ship?" Sun Yan asked a very stupid question.

I said, "This means that these ships are also the most inauspicious things like the black unicorns. Whoever touches it is unlucky. ”

Hongyue smiled and said, "That's just right, it's a good match for you." ”

"What are you insinuating about?"

"Guess." Red Moon smiled and steered her speedboat towards the Biling*, and we followed*.

Lin Yue wanted to go up to the battleship to take a look, so she* went to the anchor chain and wanted to climb up along the anchor chain. When the speedboat reached the anchor chain, Lin Yue jumped up. Fog, who was sitting behind my speedboat, quickly shouted: "Don't ......! "It's a pity that it's too late! Lin Yue had already jumped out, and just when she touched the anchor chain and was about to catch it, she suddenly found that the anchor chain couldn't be caught at all. With a pop, Lin Yue's wolf fell into the water, splashing our heads and faces were full of water.

We all found out that something was wrong. Sun Yan drove the speedboat over to pick up Lin Yue, and King Chuang stopped the boat next to the anchor chain. He reached out and took a few tentative scoops. As a result, he lightly passed through the anchor chain. "It's an illusion!" King Chuang said to us.

I turned on the illusion disillusionment function of the Star Pupil Land, and what I saw was a battleship floating there with black gas. Being able to see entities means that they are not illusions. But I really can't touch it!

Fog explained, "The ghost ship has no physical body, so it can't be touched. ”

"Then this ship can't be manned?"

"You can't hold anything but ghosts. Because there is no entity in the first place, there is no way to bear the load. ”

"No wonder it's called a ghost ship!" Lin Yue climbed up from the water like a chicken in soup.

A question occurred to me. "Fog, these battleships have no entity, aren't they afraid of shells?"

"It depends on what the cannon is. Cannons, ballistas, trebuchets, and ramming horns that use physical damage as a means can't hurt the ghost ship, and there is no entity anyway, so the entity is completely immune to attacks. However, magic weapons such as crystal cannons and spell cannons can damage ghost ships. ”

"What about weapons? What about motivation? What about the crew? What about supplies? This thing doesn't have a physical body, and a lot of things can't be realized, right? "The question of King Chuang is much more professional.

Fog replied, "The crew of the ghost ship must use all ghosts, as long as they are disembodied undead. For example, ghosts, high-level lichs, spirits, spirits, etc., as long as there are no entities. In terms of power, it's actually all about posturing. The sails and thrusters are ornaments, and the movement of the ship is the mind of the undead rather than the thrusters. Ghost ships are all very fast. You also saw the speed of the Treasure when you came. ”

"That's right."

"It's easier to resupply. The Ghost Ship does not need to be resupplied at all and can sail continuously. And weapons! We're using an undead cannon, and it's okay. It can produce a magic impact on the target, which is equivalent to the principle of the magic crystal cannon, but it is much less powerful. ”

I pointed my finger and said, "That means that the ghost ship uses ghost piloting, ignores physical damage, has a fairly high speed, has the firepower and range of a normal battleship, does not need supplies, and does not need power." Am I right? ”

"That's right. In addition, we also have the Fog of Confusion protection. ”

"Is that Treasure a ghost ship?"

"The Treasure is a ghost ship, not a ghost ship, and its attributes are roughly the same. However, ghost ships have entities. The Ghost Ship has no substance. This is the main difference. ”

Although these ghost ships are not particularly powerful, they have very special attributes and are very suitable for some special missions. For example, what we need to do right away is to intercept the trade between the Japanese and the Great White Shark Clan. I don't think little Japan should have much to deal with the ghost ships, and when the time comes, just disrupt their fleet with fog, and then we'll go up and empty their ships one by one, and then set them on fire...... Hey, hey, hey......

Look at the time, it's almost 4 o'clock. There are still 4 hours left before the trading time of the small Japan exchange. I immediately said, "Are there any ghosts here?" I want these ships to go into battle right away. ”

Fog was a little embarrassed: "There are a lot of ghosts here at the moment, but ......!" ”

"But what?"

"But they were all suppressed under the seal, and their consciousness was already confused. If you want these ghosts to regain their combat power, I'm afraid it will take a long time. ”

"Take us first."

"Alright then!"

Follow the fog ashore and walk through the ruins to a clearing where an obelisk is erected. The fog stopped. "Down there is a mass grave where the comrades who were not captured at the time were slaughtered. The Temple of Light knew that these people would definitely become unjust souls if they were unwilling to die. That's why this magic array was built here to suppress the undead. This array will gradually wear out the willpower of those unjust souls below, so even if they are released, they will be confused, and they must slowly absorb the power to return to normal. ”

Ling walked over and said, "Are you sure there are the undead we need down there?" ”

Fog said affirmatively, "I'm sure." ”

Ling Dao: "Then dig it!" I have a way to quickly restore the undead. As a former goddess of darkness, this little problem is not too much for me. ”

It's a blessing. We actually forgot about the big man Ling. Anyway, it's also a goddess, and she should be able to do this little thing. The next thing is to break the seal, which is simple, and I am the best at destroying it. With eternity and ease, he brought down the obelisk, and in three or two strokes, he made more than a dozen holes in the ground. As long as the magic circle is destroyed a little, it will not be able to operate, and I have made this place full of ruins, of course, and successfully stopped the operation of the seal.

The next thing to do is digging. The spirits were sealed in the ground with a large amount of blessed silver and magic wax, and they couldn't get out of it themselves without getting rid of these things. Digging a hole is still a quick job for large creatures, and a few dragons except lucky are summoned to help dig the holes.

It took us less than twenty minutes to dig out the blessed silver, and as soon as we got rid of the blessed silver, white bubbles began to appear one after another floating underneath. These white bubbles are ghosts, which have lost their power due to long-term suppression, and now they can't even maintain their human form.
