Chapter 30: Survivors on the Ship

As the last trace of sunset in the sky disappeared into the thick clouds, the entire heaven and earth returned to the embrace of the goddess of the dark night......

There are no bright stars in the sky!

There is just endless darkness......

Long......

In this endless darkness, a few shimmers suddenly lit up......

As time passed, these lights became brighter and brighter, and gradually outlined the shape of the two sea giants!

It's Dingyuan and Weiyuan!

After nearly five hours of sailing, these two sea giants finally approached the waters of Shenzhen-Hong Kong City!

Maybe it will take another hour or so to reach the target port!

Dingyuan......

As yesterday, the whole ship was shrouded in bright lights......

The dazzling lights not only illuminate the entire luxury cruise ship as bright as day, but also illuminate the surrounding seas, just like a bright light in the endless night!

'Whoa......'

I don't know when the wind started!

The waves are constantly lapping against the hull of the ship, splashing a large number of waves!

As a result, the huge ship gently undulated with the microwave......

……

Compared with last night, tonight's Dingyuan is exceptionally quiet!

Although the entire ship was not completely wiped out, none of the Dark Chasers appeared on deck!

On the Weiyuan, which was less than two hundred meters away from the Dingyuan, there was a large group of people, densely crowded on the deck.

It's Cui Kai, Black Widow and his party......

But no trace of Xie Cong and Xia Jian was found......

'I wonder where they have been?'

'Look. I should go to the fifth floor......

I don't know what happened to me so far......

In the crowd on the deck, there was a lot of talk from time to time......

What's going on?

Before dark, aren't everyone still swimming in Dingyuan?

Why is this all back on the Weiyuan?

Originally......

Since Xia Jian was determined to be on the Dingyuan. It is very likely that there will still be a blood clan whose strength has reached the peak of the general level! The sense of crisis in his heart was even stronger!

Xia Jian is not an adventurous person!

Especially in this kind of sea where there is no village in front and no store in the back.

After only a little thought, he made the decision to retreat to Weiyuan.

Then he took advantage of the gap to transfer his spiritual power to the skeleton docked on the basement floor......

The sudden failure of the Dingyuanhao engine unit, coupled with the screams of human beings, made Xia Jian a little suspicious. The blood clan that had been hiding in the shadows at the pinnacle of the general level was most likely at the bottom of the cabin.

However, Xia Jian's mental transfer failed this time.

The transfer failed. There are only two outcomes......

Either the summoned skeleton is beyond the range that one's mental power can sense.

Either the skeleton that you summoned yourself is dead.

The former scenario is clearly not likely to happen......

Then it could only be the latter......

Linked to the possible battle below, Xia Jian affirmed his guess in his heart.

……

There is no doubt about the danger of the general-level peak blood clan.

Think of the Tibetan mastiff at the pinnacle of the ranks!

Think of that king-level batwinged beast.

They are all very capable of destroying the existence of a base with ease......

Since there is a general-level peak blood clan on the Dingyuan, Xia Jian knows it in his heart. He was faced with only two choices at this point.

Abandon ship!

Either find out and destroy this bloodline.

But will Xia Jian abandon the ship?

If put it before the day......

If the aura emanating from this blood clan is not the pinnacle of the general rank. It's the words of the king!

Xia Jian will definitely not stay on the Dingyuan for even a second, but hide as far as he can.

But now!

Xia Jian believes that he who has just been promoted to level twenty-five, plus Xie Cong who is in the middle of the general level, the two of them have no strength to fight.

People always need to fight to grow!

Blindly avoiding can only make people weak!

For this, Xia Jian thought so......

So......

After determining that the skeleton could not be contacted, Xia Jian and Xie Cong discussed it. The two of them decided to go down to the bottom cabin to investigate.

If you really can't find this general-level bloodline hidden in the shadows, it's not too late to abandon the ship when the time comes......

…………

Due to the fact that the lights on the entire ship were turned on beforehand.

The interior of the Dingyuan. It was as bright as day......

Coupled with Xia Jian's spiritual perception ability, as well as the last time he controlled the skeleton, he had already come down once.

This time it went very smoothly......

Xia Jian and Xie Cong soon came to the upper floor at the bottom of the cabin.

The two didn't even get into a fight along the way......

Wait until the last layer......

Xie Cong habitually opened the hatch......

Suddenly, a very strange smell rushed out of the cabin.

Xia Jian subconsciously sniffed a few sips......

Then he held his breath......

It's really a very strange taste.

Last time, because he controlled the skeleton, and the skeleton's sense of smell was completely different from that of humans, Xia Jian didn't notice anything wrong at all last time.

This strange smell seems to be mixed with some strong bloody smell, and it seems to be mixed with a very bad smell, just like the strange smell that comes out when a person hasn't taken a bath for more than ten years.

But why does this smell occur on this ship?

When I went down to the cabin on the ground floor, the light suddenly dimmed.

When the ship was built, not much thought was given to the working environment of the crew.

Below is a hallway.

On both sides of the corridor was endless darkness, like a cave leading to the abyss of hell.

"Which way?"

Xie Cong has never come down, so he naturally doesn't know which way to go.

Left ......

However, Xia Jian is familiar with the way.

Can be fast. Xia Jian noticed that something was wrong.

He remembered that he was in the bottom cabin when he took control of the skeleton yesterday. There seems to be a very large number of corpses.

And those corpses really made him strange for a while.

Because there were no wounds on those corpses.

It's just that due to the fact that the time was very urgent at that time, Xia Jian didn't check it carefully, and he didn't pay much attention to it.

But this one will ......

Along the way, Xia Jian was in the corridor and did not find any corpses.

Those corpses lying here have disappeared inexplicably!

"Aren't those corpses?"

"It's a dormant Dark Chaser?"

Xia Jian guessed......

But the door to the cabin was closed. If those corpses were dark chasers, where did they go now?

"Be careful! There should be quite a few dark chasers here......"

Xia Jian reminded Xie Cong loudly!

Whether your guess is correct or not, it's never a bad idea to be cautious.

"Hmm!"

Xie Cong nodded......

Don't say anything else. But since he knew that Xia Jian had spiritual perception ability, he still trusted Xia Jian's judgment quite a bit.

The two of them couldn't help but slow down......

……

Five minutes later, the two of them walked through the long corridor and managed to reach the outside of the computer room.

A black suit was casually discarded at the entrance to the machine room......

Xia Jian picked it up and took a closer look......

That's right!

It was the suit he used to disguise his skeleton.

However, at this time, the suit seems to be overforced. Someone tore it apart.

And go on......

Xia Jian saw the pile of white bones that fell to the ground.

"Huh......"

For seeing such a clean skeleton here. Xie Cong was obviously a little surprised.

And from the scattered distribution of these bones, he found something strange, "How can there be skeletons here?" ”

"Ghost Knows ......"

Xia Jian shook his head, "Last time I came, I didn't see this thing......"

Xia Jian lied without a little psychological burden.

"Are you sure?"

Xie Cong still didn't seem to believe it.

"Why are you lying to you......"

Although he said this, Xia Jian was snickering in his heart.

For this pile of bones, Xia Jianke is very familiar.

Isn't this the skeleton he summoned at the beginning (for this, Xia Jian will definitely not explain this to Xie Cong!) )!

I just don't know what the road is falling up for!

And he wasn't on the bones scattered on the ground. Discover what is clearly the mark of being attacked.

It seems like a skeleton died of natural causes.

But will the skeletons summoned by himself with the "Summoning Skeletons" skill die naturally?

Probably not, right?

It seems that he is still struggling with what will appear here for the skeleton.

Xie Cong even squatted down. Picked up the bones on the ground and studied them carefully.

Occasionally, he raised his head and glanced at Xia Jian suspiciously, but he didn't know what Lu Dao was thinking about in his heart.

Xia Jian didn't bother to pay attention to him, and came directly to the smashed meter......

Then he contacted Mu Zhongyun, and under his guidance, some damaged places were repaired a little.

And at this time......

"Hey, come and see, there seems to be blood stains here......"

After studying the bones on the ground, Xie Cong looked up and saw a large pool of blood on the ground.

Curious, he sniffed a little......

"Hmmm! It seems to have just flowed out, and it looks like someone has been here just now......"

Xia Jian walked over, also touched a little, and sniffed, "Are you sure it's human?" ”

Xie Cong pursed his lips and looked unhappy, "Don't you still trust my judgment?" ”

"Can you track it down?"

"I'll try ......"

…………

The two were lucky......

Maybe it was the injured man who showed up in large numbers, so there were traces along the way.

The two of them traced the blood on the ground all the way to the ......

Not a single corpse was found, nor was there any shadow chaser.

It seems to be very safe......

But that kind of depressing and gloomy atmosphere made the two of them involuntarily vigilant, as if the end of the passage. There is something extremely dangerous in general.

Until at a fork in the road......

Here, Xia Jian finally discovered the source of the rancid smell that permeated the entire passage.

It came from a gate that continued to the next level.

"Is there a cabin down here?"

Xia Jian glanced at Xie Cong suspiciously.

But Xie Cong is also the first time to come. How could he know the Dao, just shook his head.

No way......

Xia Jian could only try to probe down with his spiritual perception.

"Hmmm......"

But after a while, his brow furrowed again.

Here, he unexpectedly found that his spiritual perception could not penetrate this deck.

Connected, all the time, to their own spiritual perception. On this ship, there will be strange situations that will be suppressed to varying degrees.

Xia Jian's gaze suddenly became sharp......

Xie Cong noticed his abnormality, "What's wrong?" ”

Xia Jian's face was heavy. Instead of answering, he pointed directly to the gate below.

Seeing that Xia Jian was so cautious, Xie Cong immediately understood......

Nodding......

The two of them are ready to go......

Xie Congmeng pulled the floodgates......

Next Second......

"Whew......"

A sharp roar suddenly came from behind the gate......

Meanwhile......

in the lower cabin. There was a sudden sound of breaking the air. I saw a burly black figure, shaped like electricity, bursting out from behind the gate like lightning......

"Drink ......"

Xia Jian, who had already raised his sword and was ready to go, let out a loud shout.

"Boom ......"

Just listen to the corridor stay, suddenly there was a deafening loud explosion.

All of a sudden, the wind was blowing......

The horse chopping knife instantly broke through the speed of sound and aimed at the blood clan that pounced on this head. The one who splits his head and covers his face will be chopped down.

Faced with Xia Jian's blockade.

This bloodline could not avoid it, and saw that the war saber was about to be cut off on the top of his head. In the next second, he was about to be split in half by the head......

"Jie Ji ......"

This blood clan actually let out a fierce roar again.

In an instant, a circle of invisible spiritual ripples, centered on this blood clan, spread out in an instant......

When swept by the spiritual ripples, Xia Jian's mind "boomed", and as if it exploded, he suddenly felt dizzy, and under the huge shock of his heart, the horse chopping knife was slightly off, and he suddenly split into the air.

It's a mental shock......

Sure enough, it's a spiritual blood clan.

"......"

Compared with Xia Jian, Xie Cong was even more unbearable, burst out with a foul mouth, and flew back sharply.

He is not Xia Jian......

You must know that after the condensation of the "Spiritual Power Combat Method", Xia Jian is now basically immune to most spiritual attacks, not to mention, Xia Jian's own spiritual power is also as high as forty points, and he has reached the threshold of the primary level of the general level.

"Die......"

Listening to Xia Jian's sudden burst of applause, he couldn't help but endure the dizziness in his head, gritted his teeth, and slashed down again......

"Jie Ji ......"

This spiritual blood clan wants to repeat the old tricks.

But this time, Xia Jian was already prepared......

Stubbornly resisting the feeling of splitting headache, he gritted his teeth and chopped off the horse knife......

"Poof......

In the next second, blood flashed out......

The shrill screaming of the elite stopped abruptly......

This spiritual blood clan obviously didn't expect that his spiritual attack would fail in a hundred ways.

carelessly, in the face of the chopping knife cut by the head, he actually forgot to dodge.

A sharp blade that slashed through the left ear and out of the right jaw......

Most of the Heavenly Spirit Cover, attracted by gravity, slowly slid down from the skull.

Bright red blood and milky white brains suddenly gushed out from the only half of the head......

"Holy! You're fierce! ”

As soon as the whistle stopped, Xie Cong immediately recovered and gave Xia Jian a thumbs up, "I didn't expect a spirit blood clan at the peak of the general level to be killed by you like this......"

"Hey......

Xia Jian glanced at the corpse that fell to the ground with palpitations, and smiled embarrassedly, "Fortunately, it is a blood clan of the spiritual department, I have a certain immunity to spiritual attacks, and I can barely resist it, if it is a blood clan that has evolved in terms of speed and strength, it is estimated that it should be me who lies down......"

"What ...... be humble"

Xie Cong was a little dissatisfied with Xia Jian's explanation, others didn't understand Xia Jian, he didn't understand yet!

If you really want to talk about him, I don't know how to be played to death next time.

You must know that Lu Dao's bald head is a lesson from the past.

Xia Jian hurriedly changed the topic, "Let's check if it's a general-level blood clan first!" ”

"Hmmm......"

With the stabbing of the horse chopper, pull it down again.

The scarlet heart of the blood clan slipped out of its chest.

Skillful in extracting blood crystals!

"Blood Clan Blood Crystal (General), Grade: Late General, Role: Can greatly increase the chance of the Strengthener becoming an Evolver......"

"Using this blood crystal, there is a chance that the user will have a spiritual ability......"

Seeing the introduction of the latter article, Xia Jianma became a little excited.

That's a good thing!

It can actually make people evolve psychic abilities......

"Is it a general?"

Looking at Xia Jian's vigorous smirk, Xie Cong also came up, and seemed to want to take a look.

But Xia Jian will not let him succeed.

Directly took the blood crystal into his arms......

"The female horse, stingy ghost, isn't it just a blood crystal......"

Xie Cong was unwilling to read it in pieces......

……

But that's when it happened......

"Help Me ......"

"Please, save us......"

Underneath the open floodgates, there was a sudden intermittent faint cry for help.

"Huh......"

"There are still people here......"

Xia Jian and Xie Cong glanced at each other, one after the other, and cautiously slid down from the open gate.

After Rao heard the voice, Xia Jian and Xie Cong were already prepared, but when they really saw the scene below, they were still stunned......

Judging by the layout, this should be an abandoned cabin.

The whole cabin is about 200 square meters.

There is no light......

If you're right, the cabin should have been empty before......

However, at this time, there was a faint light source through the entrance of the gate.

In a huge cabin, in the innermost corner, hundreds of humans were densely packed.

That's right!

It's human!

It's the survivors on this ship.

Judging by the costumes on their bodies, there are crew members, tourists, women, children, and old people......

They are all ragged, yellow-skinned, and with the exception of white and yellow skin tones, they are basically copies of African refugees.

But......

Why would these people be locked up with a general-level spiritual blood clan?

That's when ......

Because he had initially adapted to the darkness here, Xia Jian was in another corner and suddenly found a mountain of bones.

I know a little in my heart......

Of course, after knowing it, I was even more afraid of shock.

"Could it be that these people were raised in captivity by that spiritual blood clan?"
