Chapter 14: Ghost Ship: Midway!

Fog! Fog!

If they hadn't seen the sunny day just now, everyone on the ship would definitely not have a solemn face at this sudden fog. After all, three of the eight people present did the business of exorcism. The gloomy fog that came with the drizzle was completely out of line with the principles of meteorology, and even a fool could see that something was wrong.

"What should I do?" It was Captain Anthony who spoke, even if it was a man from the sea, this tanned man, he couldn't help but feel a little stunned in his heart.

Milo looked at the black mist in the distance, couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, and looked at Lei Chan beside him, only to find that Lei Chan also set his eyes on Father Morin beside him. This kind of behavior fully explains what it means to have a high roof when the sky falls.

As the boss-level figure with the highest Lv, the oldest, and the most powerful aura in the exorcist trio, Father Morin certainly didn't let the rushing captain Anthony say: "The darkness ahead is raging, let's move forward, the purpose of our coming is to drive away the darkness!" Waiting for us beyond the fog, we will be back! ”

Saying that, Anthony couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, and then steered the ship towards the fog.

...

In about ten minutes, the ship was completely immersed in fog, and it was impossible to see the surrounding environment. Anthony had to slow down the ship and move slowly at sea. There seemed to be some strange magnetic field in the fog, and all the electronic equipment on the ship was out of order.

I don't know when it started, but the drizzle in the sky stopped at night. All around, except for the fog, there was only the sound of rustling waves. There is silence between heaven and earth, as if only a lonely boat is left fluttering in the sea.

The trio of exorcists stood on the deck and watched, but there was a dense black fog all around, what could they see?

Milo pulled out the IMF, a kind of ghost breath detector. Sure enough, the indicator light on it flickered, always flashing between four and five, letting the three of them know that they were in the right place.

As is customary, Father Maureen told Anthony to stop the ship, and told the man, who was beginning to look frightened, to gather all the people on board, hide in the captain's quarters, and sprinkle salt all around the captain's quarters, which is said to prevent ghosts from entering.

But Lei Chan was wondering how reliable this statement was.

The exorcist trio returned to the deck, but nothing had changed, and the ship was still drifting in the silent sea. The gray fog around them also made the three of them unable to see their surroundings clearly.

"What now?"

Lei Chan wanted to hear someone ask such a question, but neither Milo nor Father Morin stood motionless. The black fog around seemed to cut off all the air outside the ship, and even the slightest sea breeze could not be felt, only the dull sound of the waves still kept ringing.

Time passed minute by minute, but there was still no change in the surroundings, which added a sense of oppression to the already quiet deck.

It didn't last long, and the surroundings finally changed.

I saw that three huge bright spots suddenly appeared in the black fog ahead, and those who were familiar with the sea knew that they were the lights of the sea boats. But in the eyes of the exorcist trio, the light stared at the three of them like a beast from the darkness.

As the light got closer and closer, it finally broke through the fog and appeared in front of the three of them. Because of the black fog, the three of them couldn't see the whole picture of the ship, but they could see that the ship was very large, but the position of the name on the bow of the ship was still shrouded in the black fog and couldn't see clearly.

The boat stopped in front of the exorcist trio and remained motionless. It was as if it had come to pick up the three of them and go to the River Styx.

The three of them looked at each other, and barely had to speak, and then stepped forward in unison. There was a battered rope ladder on the side of the huge ship, but it looked sturdy at all.

After Lei Chan was the last to climb aboard the ghost ship, the ghost ship remained motionless, as if it was still waiting for the other five passengers on the ship. Ignoring the movements of the sea ship for the time being, the three exorcists discussed it slightly, and finally did not make the foolish act of returning the army in a dangerous place and leaving it alone.

Although the black fog was filled, it was still possible to see the surroundings of the ghost ship. The trio were on a wide deck, and there seemed to be a shadow-like object behind them, but the blurry black fog made it difficult for the trio to see.

They didn't intend to go over and see what was going on, but walked towards the middle of the hull, where the cabin was. It wasn't until they reached the entrance of the cabin that the three of them realized that the ship didn't seem to be as huge as it seemed to the eye, and it was not much different from the sea ship they and the others were on, but it was a little taller.

Pushing open the hatch, the three mermaids rushed in, and the corridor in the inner cabin where workers could walk was a little narrow and quite low. With the exception of the 'short man', Milo and Father Morin had to walk forward half-bent. Fortunately, the scope of the inner compartment is not very large, and it is divided into three compartments.

A ladder leads up to the ship's control room on the upper level, where there are some instruments, but unfortunately the exorcist trio says they can't read it. Leaving the control room, I came to the second compartment, which contained some munitions, scattered weapons and ammunition all over the ground, as if the owner of the ship was still packing up his weapons and preparing for the battle a moment ago, but still nothing was found. In the final third compartment, there was nothing, just some strange equipment in it, which also shimmered with strange lights, and of course the exorcist trio still couldn't understand what it was.

Finding nothing, the three of them had to walk back to the deck from the narrow corridor in turn, and although they didn't find any ghosts on the ship, the IMF in Milo's hand flickered non-stop.

"Don't you think this ship is like oneβ€”" Milo spoke first, but didn't finish.

"Warship, huh?" Lei Chan said.

In fact, in the motel, after hearing the words of retired veteran Lepp, the three of them were still suspicious of the identity of the ghost ship. Rayzen was of course on the side of the veteran Lepp, but Father Maureen and Milo preferred to believe that the ghost ship had a little more to do with the beaver that sank on its maiden voyage, after all, it was a strange thing.

Ironically, the exorcist would believe in the bizarre nature of things.

...

Last night, Lepp, a retired veteran, said: "I once served in the Third Fleet under the Pacific Fleet, and I was a frigate (boat) soldier under the USS Manhattan to escort the Yorktown aircraft carrier, and the last battle I participated in - the Battle of Midway!" ”
