The captain's room is a relatively spacious room, more of a captain's study than a captain's room.

On the left side of the room was a huge bookcase, on which the books had accumulated dust, and even the covers of some books had begun to rot, giving off an unpleasant musty smell. A dim medieval chandelier hangs in the middle of the room, leaving a pale yellow glow on the dark blue carpet. On the left side of the room, there is a large desk, behind which is a chair with a backrest, which blocks the objects placed on the table, but some books, rolled-up papers, and quill pens can be faintly seen on the desk. On the far left, there is a floor-to-ceiling hanging window, the upper end of which is diamond-shaped, carved with winged cherubs, looking down on the room from top to bottom.

At that desk, there hung an oil painting with a portrait of a man.

He was dressed in a dress similar to that of the Middle Ages, with a royal blue shirt, a black hat, a striking beard, wrinkles crawling on his face, and a slender sword with majesty between his eyebrows.

Colin held his breath and walked over to the painting, and when he looked up, he saw a line of words written in black ink under the painting—

【Only to the great Edward Teach】

Colin was stunned.

Ivanov turned around, and he could see Colin's pale expression.

"What's wrong with you, Colin?"

"This, this painting ......"

"Isn't it just a painting, all the fuss." Ivanov patted Colin on the shoulder, "This is just a portrait of the captain." ”

“…… Your captain's name is Edward Titch?! ”

"yes."

“…… Ivanov, did you know that among the most notorious pirates in the world, there is one nicknamed the 'bearded pirate'. ”

"What do you mean......"

"The bearded pirate is Edward Teach!"

As soon as Colin finished speaking, he heard the sound of a wooden chair slowly turning in front of his desk.

The two of them turned around at the same time, but saw that there had been a person sitting on the chair, but it was blocked by the back of the chair, and they didn't see it when they entered the door.

I saw that the man slowly stood up from the wooden chair, and the heavy royal blue shirt on his body was covered with dust, and there were even a few pieces of the cufflinks. His body was devoid of flesh and blood, only a skeleton remained, a rusty English broadsword pinned to his waist, and his black beard hung a little messily down from his chest under his broad black hat, and he turned sideways, the black eyes of the skull staring at them.

"Ship, captain......" Ivanov took a step back.

[Warning, warning, hostile creatures in front of you]

[Creature Name: Captain Blackbeard]

[Target location: 5 meters]

[Creature Level: A+]

Captain Blackbeard's black boots stomped on the rotten wooden floor, which made a "squeak" and "squeak" sound.

He walked towards them.

Colin pushed back, raising his leg to run.

But at this time, Ivanov pulled him back.

Colin turned back in panic and faced Ivanov with a guilty expression.

"What are you doing?! Run! Colin looked at the captain who was approaching step by step, and pulled Raiganov to run away with him.

But Ivanov was unmoved, as if he didn't hear Colin's words, but just pulled Colin's sleeve and made it a little harder.

"I'm sorry Colin, I can't go, and so are you."

"What?"

Before Colin could finish speaking, he suddenly saw a dark green collar suddenly appear on Ivanov's neck, this collar imprisoned his neck, restricting his breathing, but what made him even more terrible was that this collar did not exist before.

"Captain, will imprison the souls of the dead and order them to find new victims for him......" Ivanov said, bowing his head.

Colin followed his line of sight and realized that Ivanov had no feet!

"You ...... before"

"It's in disguise, I'm sorry Colin, the captain's order, he asked me to bring you here, and he controls the walls of the labyrinth, so that you can't retreat step by step, you can only come to the captain's room......" Ivanov whispered more and more.

Now Colin completely understood.

Why did the wall approach again and again with their advance just now, and why didn't the wall press down on them all at once this time......

It turned out that it was because Ivanov was taking him to the captain's lair......

He was a sacrifice and was given to the captain by the prefecture!

Colin looked at the tall Blackbeard Captain two meters away.

The dim light brushed his shoulders, and his shadow fell on them, obscuring all light and all hope of survival.

Colin suddenly understood.

Why did I always feel that something was not right?

He remembered what Icarus had told him—

……

[When the third alarm sounds, these felons who commit crimes at will will turn into bloodthirsty zombies and attack the gamers in each round]

[This is what the [Minghe System] demanded from them - the price]

……

yes, word, after the third alarm, how can there be any surviving NPCs?!

Was he careless?!

Colin shook off Ivanov's hand vigorously, but Captain Blackbeard was already close at hand! Captain Blackbeard raised his broadsword and stabbed Colin down, and Colin ducked as soon as he ducked, the sword grazing his cheek, knocking out his eye and plunging straight into the wall behind him.

Colin fell to the ground, without his glasses, and the scene in front of him was blurred in an instant, like a layer of white mist, and only some faint outlines could be seen. He looked up and vaguely saw Captain Blackbeard's sword stabbing at him again, he hurriedly got up from the ground, Captain Blackbeard's sword cut through his sleeve, lowered his head to dodge, and Captain Blackbeard's third sword shaved off a few more strands of his hair. Colin hurried to the door, holding the doorknob, and tugging at the door, but he couldn't open it anyway.

“…… Colin, it's useless, this ship is controlled by the captain, every corridor, every wall, every door, is controlled by him. Ivanov stood behind the captain and looked at Colin with sadness in his eyes, "It's okay, we are still friends when we become NPCs, and I will take care of you." ”

"Who wants a friend like you!!" Colin shouted angrily.

Captain Blackbeard stabbed Colin with another sword, and Colin flashed to the side, and Captain Blackbeard's sword was inserted into the heavy door panel, making it difficult to pull out for the time being. He crawled to the other side of the room and pulled out a pistol from his clothes - he had an iron rod and a pistol, but the iron rod was on the ground when he was thinking about binary, and he forgot to take it after meeting Ivanov, and now he only had a gun left to defend himself.

This weapon may be a good self-defense weapon for others.

But for him......

But it's hard to say.

With trembling hands, Colin raised his head and squinted hard in the direction of the door - the room was already dark, and he had no glasses, so he couldn't see the captain's direction clearly, so he could only tell by his voice that Captain Blackbeard had drawn his sword, and his black shoes had stepped on the rotten floor and ran towards him!

Colin held the gun in both hands and pulled the trigger.

But the pistol did nothing.

"Hey, why didn't it ring?" Colin pulled the trigger again, but this time, the pistol was as dumb as it was unresponsive.

The pistol does not seem to have the safety device turned on and cannot fire bullets.

(W-How the hell is this thing used?!) ）

In the midst of the chaos in Colin, Captain Blackbeard rushed in front of him, and he blocked him in front of the bookcase, leaving him with nowhere to run!

(Oops!) ）

Colin lowered his head and closed his eyes in horror.

(Is that why you just died here...... ）

(Is it just an NPC...... ）

(Could it be...... ）

Ten thousand complicated thoughts flashed through his mind, and all he heard was Captain Blackbeard's roar above his head, and then, a loud explosion suddenly drowned out Captain Blackbeard's roar.

"Boom—"

The wall on the left hand side was blown open by explosives in an instant, and the sky was full of dust, and Colin opened his eyes to see Captain Blackbeard being shaken away by the shock wave from the explosion, and fell directly on his desk, crushing the desk and chair.

Frightened, Colin heard steady footsteps.

He looked back, and saw a thin figure appear in the dust—

"Hahaha, I thought it was a sturdy wall, and it was not vulnerable at all." One-Eyed grinned wildly, and he stood on the pile of ruins, holding a long strip of bomb-like stuff in his hand.

"One-eyed?!" Colin was overjoyed to hear the one-eyed voice.

Really, he had never felt so cute and charming as he was now!

He almost wanted to erect a monument to him! Sing a hymn!

Who is the cutest person in the world?

Of course, it's the one-eyed that appears at this moment!

"Oh, the four-eyed imp is here?" One-eyed raised an eyebrow and looked at Colin who was sitting on the ground.

Behind One-Eyed, a woman's voice sounded: "Four-eyed imp? Is Colin here? ”

Colin couldn't see the face, but he could hear it being Lorraine's voice.

"Lorraine!"

"Hey, it's really Colin!" Lorraine walked out from behind One-Eyed, she jumped off the pile of ruins, came to the bookcase, and crouched down to look at the embarrassed Colin, "How did you become like this?" ”

Colin was momentarily speechless as he suddenly felt a strange feeling of warmth beneath him......

Lorraine's gaze followed Colin's messy hair, narrowed eyes, to Captain Blackbeard's ragged clothes, and finally to the eerie puddle of liquid beneath him......

Lorraine was stunned: "Colin, you ......"

"Hahahaha, four-eyed imp, you won't be scared of pee, hahahahaha." One-eyed laughing.

"I'm ......," Colin blushed suddenly, desperate to find a crack in the ground to get into.

Could it be better to be killed by Captain Blackbeard with a sword just now?

"Shalashala......"

Captain Blackbeard wasn't knocked down, and he got back to his feet.

One-Eye and Lorraine's headset also heard Captain Blackbeard's prompt.

"Captain Blackbeard? Hmph, interesting, let Uncle Ben come to meet you. One-Eye drew his long knife and rushed towards Captain Blackbeard with great interest!

With a wave of his long arm, he slashed at Captain Blackbeard, but the captain was not a vegetarian either, he raised his skeletal arm and used his broadblade to block One-Eye's attack, and the two fought.

Lorraine pulled out the snatch and aimed it at the moving Captain Blackbeard.

One-Eye leaned over and flashed Captain Blackbeard's sword, he used the knife to resist Captain Blackbeard's attack, and used his strength to cut off a strand of Captain Blackbeard's beard, Captain Blackbeard took a few steps back, One-Eye took advantage of the victory to pursue the backhand holding the knife, the blade cut Captain Blackbeard's shirt, and cut off a large handful of Captain Blackbeard's beard, the thick beard under Captain Blackbeard's skull is now a little sparse, and it looks a little ridiculous.

"Uncle Ben is in a good mood today, so I'll give you a free shaving service."

One-eyed laughed, and the longsword turned an arc, turning Captain Blackbeard's sword in a circle, and then knocking Captain Blackbeard's sword away. Stepping over the splinters of the wooden chair on the ground, One-Eye jumped, raised the knife, and the blade was about to be plunged into Blackbeard's skull! But at this point, Lorraine fired, and with a "bang", one step ahead of him, shattered the skull of Captain Blackbeard. Startled, One-Eyed moved, stepped on the body of the fallen Captain Blackbeard, jumped to the other side, and looked at Lorraine angrily.

"Hey! Stinky woman! How are you robbing my prey?! ”

"Captain Blackbeard doesn't have your name written on him, so why do you think it's your prey?"

"If it weren't for me, you and that peeing of pants kid would have beaten him?!"

"The rules of the game are that whoever kills the boss will be able to score, and there are no rules that you can't poach." Lorraine pretended to be stupid.

"You!" One-eyed looked at the silver-white woman with short hair angrily, and was about to have a seizure to solve her, but think about it now that it was a team battle, and it was himself who suffered one less.

He could only grit his teeth in resentment and put away his long knife: "You like poaching as much as the duke's woman. Don't let me touch you in the next game! ”

Lorraine looked away nonchalantly, she wasn't one to be threatened.

In the next game, it may be decided who will teach whom.

She got up and walked over to Captain Blackbeard's painting, picked up Colin's eyes, and returned to the bookcase to hand it to him.

"Glasses are your weakness, pay attention next time, don't lose them."

"Thank you."

Colin took his glasses and put them back on, and he saw everything around him clearly—One-Eye stood next to Captain Blackbeard's corpse, and glared at Lorraine with an unhappy expression, and Lorraine stood beside him, leaning slightly over him as he sat on the ground, and he looked down to see that his clothes were full of torn cuts, and his pants were wet......

Looking up, he saw Ivanov lying dead on the ground.

He was originally controlled by Captain Blackbeard, and Captain Blackbeard was killed, and he, as a possessed spirit, naturally died.

Colin stood up in disdain, twisted his feet and walked to Ivanov's side.

His figure was similar to him, and Ivanov's clothes he could wear.

Thinking so, Colin looked back at Lorraine, the empathetic Lorraine understood, she silently turned her back, and the one-eyed on the other side was taking off Captain Blackbeard's hat and putting it on his head, and adjusted the curvature of the hat with satisfaction, so that he didn't have the leisure to pay attention to him.

Colin hurriedly bent down, stripped his clothes from Ivanov's corpse as fast as he could, and put them on himself.

“…… What's next? Lorraine was still facing the bookcase.

"Me, I've changed my clothes."

"Okay." Lorraine turned and looked at One-Eye, "Could the silver dagger be here?" ”

One-Eye was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window fiddling with the hat, and when he heard Lorraine's voice, he looked back at her: "Just look for it." ”

The three of them just looked around the captain's room.

Even the chandelier was knocked down by One-Eye to see if there was anything suspicious. Lorraine also took down the painting and flipped the bookcase to the floor, but she didn't see any other dark compartments in the room.

It seems that the silver dagger is not here.

Colin stood at his desk, looking at the yellowed scrolls on the desk, he was silent for a long time, silently rolled up some blank letterheads, and took the pen from the table.

His instincts told him that these things might come in handy.

"Since there's no one here, let's look elsewhere." Lorraine proposed.

"How are you going to get out?" Colin looked at Lorraine, "The door is locked, we're not Captain Blackbeard, we can't control the labyrinth." ”

"Door?" One-eyed raised an eyebrow, he gently pushed the wide captain's hat on his head, and took out a long strip of crude explosives from his pocket, "With me here, do you still need a door?" ”

A minute later -

"Boom—"

A huge explosion sounded again, and the powerful explosives smashed the door directly.

One-Eyed walked in front with a knife, followed by Lorraine and Colin.

Captain Blackbeard is dead, the intricate labyrinth is gone, and the cruise ship returns to its normal internal structure.

They broke down the door of the locked captain's cabin and found that outside the captain's room was the second-floor lobby of the cruise ship.
