The sea water in the back half of the cargo hold was not drained clean, and everyone waded knee-deep in the sea water and slowly walked towards the depths of the cargo hold.

Probably because of the long immersion in the sea, there is a layer of black paste-like substance hanging on the wall of the warehouse near here, like a thick layer of asphalt, which makes the whole cargo yard look extraordinarily dark, and the bright flashlight beam shines on the top as if it shines into the darkness, not even a little reflection, and you can't see the boundary at all, as if the entire cargo hold is endless.

The coffin nails in the glass cover were pointed straight ahead, as if they were about to burst out at any moment. The people in the team just moved forward, no one said a word, and the gloom filled everyone's minds, and everyone could only hear the tip of the coffin nail touching the glass cover.

At this moment, the player at the front of the team suddenly stopped, and his flashlight beam shone on the back of a person. The others looked over and found that this person was dressed exactly like Liu Cong's team members, and it was obvious that this person should be one of the first team members who mysteriously disappeared after entering the cargo hold.

This person turned his back to the team, facing the direction of the front of the warehouse, and did not move, and then the flashlight beam of the people in the team moved laterally, and found a large row of people standing in front of the team, counting more than a dozen, and it seemed that all the team members who disappeared before were already standing here.

All the players turned their backs to the team and did not move. Seeing these team members, Chen Ziyang breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, he found the traces of these people. Judging from the number of people, the team members who followed him into the cargo hold before should also be standing in the queue in front, so that he and Liu Cong finally had an explanation, and they didn't lose all these people.

"Hey! What's going on with you? Why did they all come here without making a sound! There was a hint of displeasure in Liu Cong's tone, these team members really made him feel very angry, not only did they give up the main goal of searching for the iron book without permission, but also left the team without authorization, it was really a little unscrupulous, no wonder Liu Cong was so angry, these people's behavior was no different from a traitor in his eyes.

Originally, Liu Cong thought that after his words came out, these team members would turn around and show very guilty expressions one by one. But what everyone didn't expect was that after Liu Cong finished saying these few words, the dozen or so team members in front of them were still motionless, still standing there quietly, and they didn't even turn around.

Since when can his team members ignore their words like this, Liu Cong was already angry, he walked to the front in a few steps, reached out and grabbed the shoulder of a team member, and passed the team member over.

At the moment when Liu Cong's hand just touched the shoulder of this team member, Chen Ziyang suddenly reacted, these team members' actions were too weird, whether they left the team without authorization, or these people quietly disappeared from everyone's field of vision, and even inexplicably appeared in front of everyone's eyes, all of this is very wrong, that is, Liu Cong is angry now, and he didn't notice this at all.

After running forward a few steps, Chen Ziyang grabbed Liu Cong's collar and suddenly exerted force, pulling Liu Cong back at once. At the moment when Liu Cong was pulled back, the player who was grabbed by Liu Cong's shoulder suddenly turned around, and a pale face was revealed under the light of the flashlight.

The team's facial features were distorted, and his eyes, nose, and mouth were tightly knit together. Obviously, the team member's face was much thinner than normal's, as if all the flesh and blood had been sucked dry, and only a shriveled shell remained.

Two lines of bloody tears flowed from the team's twisted eyes, drying up on his pale cheeks. At the same time, the line of members at the front of the line had already turned, and each of them looked exactly like the countless living dead that everyone had seen before.

Before Liu Cong could recover from his surprise, the team members who had disappeared before and suddenly appeared rushed into the team one by one like hungry tigers.

The screams rang out one after another, accompanied by sporadic gunshots, and everyone had already understood that the team members who had disappeared inexplicably before had become the living dead, and they stood here for only one purpose, that is, to stop everyone's advance, and launch a surprise attack while everyone was unprepared. This tactic was very effective, and the actions of this group of living dead also had a certain effect.

The formation of the team was disrupted in an instant, because of the lack of light, and the fact that the players who had become the living dead were dressed in the same way as the rest of the team, and the people in the two teams were all mixed together, and it was impossible to tell who was who for a while.

Liu Cong's team members are all better, after all, these people are all trained, and their reaction speed is very fast, and they quickly organized a counterattack, but Hei Qi and his two sailors were not so lucky.

The three men had no weapons in their hands at all, and after the sudden attack, the three men were completely at a disadvantage, and after a few seconds, the bodies of the three people were bitten several times by the living dead in front of them, and pieces of flesh with blood were torn off by these living dead.

Because of their previous experience in fighting the living dead, the three Chen Ziyang brothers were still at ease, and they quickly cleared out the few living dead who attacked them and turned to help the others.

Although Liu Cong's team members were suddenly attacked, the overall quality of these people was still very good, they quickly recovered from the shock, and the counterattack was also very effective.

may have seen more about this kind of life and death, every member of Liu Cong's team has no pity, they quickly turned from passive to active, and they are also very ruthless. Because they know that their former teammates have become evil creatures, but any kindness to them is cruelty to themselves, and this is not the time to talk about the kindness of women.

But even so, the people in the team still lost the opportunity and were seized by these living dead, and the two sides fought evenly and were at a stalemate for a while.

The turning point appeared in the bodies of the three Chen Ziyang brothers, these three people knew that the weakness of these living dead was their heads, so the target of the three people's attacks was very clear, it was the heads of these living dead, and their attacks were also very effective, and after a while, several team members killed the living dead in front of them with their help, and were freed from the suppressed state.

The snowball effect manifested itself at this time, and the idle players joined the other people's warbands, and soon the situation changed, becoming two or three team members to deal with a living dead, and not long after, the living dead who mixed into the team were eliminated one by one.

Chen Ziyang looked at the corpses of the living dead who fell in the sea water of the cargo hold, and these team members were all bleeding without exception, revealing a hideous expression, which was exactly the same as the diver who died in the deep sea on the previous Hailaoyue Ship.

After Yang Tian yelled a few times, Liu Cong vented the anger in his heart, these former team members turned into minions of the coffin, which no one thought before, even if it was expected that they would probably have encountered an accident a long time ago, but Liu Cong did not expect that they would become like this.

After this brief battle, the damage to Liu Cong's team was not too serious, but it only lost two team members, but the two sailors under Hei Qi did not survive and became two corpses, and Hei Qi himself was also seriously injured, several pieces of flesh were bitten off his body, and blood flowed, but fortunately he did not lose his life.

The four words of death for money have been well interpreted in their bodies, if it weren't for the black Qicai fan, they had to follow Liu Cong and them to board the Bailang Pill, maybe these three people would not have ended up in this step, and the two sailors would not have lost their lives.

Although the overall loss was not very large, there were also many people in the team who were injured, they were either bitten by the living dead, or injured by the living dead, but fortunately, these team members have not lost their combat effectiveness, after a simple bandage, Liu Cong ordered the team to speed up, he didn't want his team members to become the living dead again.

Now things are very clear, the coffin should be the culprit of all these incidents, and this coffin can not only absorb the essence blood in the human body, but also be able to turn these people who have been sucked dry of the essence blood into the living dead, the most fatal point, this coffin is still the initiator of the ghost of Kurofuoka, and the ghost of Kurofuoka is now missing, and it is very likely that he has been hiding in the shadows, ready to launch a sneak attack at any time.

In order to avoid long nights and dreams, after a short rest, the team continued to move forward, and after a while, another large number of goods appeared in front of everyone.

The cargo was neatly stacked in boxes, but due to the years of immersion in the sea, many of these boxes had rotted, revealing items with marine life attached to them.

These objects are either some porcelain, or some bronze, each of which looks very exquisite, even if the original appearance is destroyed by sea creatures, it still can't hide the quaint atmosphere on them.

Among the piles of boxes, there is a huge black box that is particularly conspicuous and appears in everyone's field of vision very abruptly.

This box is very large, the side length is more than two meters, the whole body is pitch black, showing a regular hexagonal shape, on the box facing the crowd on several sides, or carved some strange animal heads, or carved with hideous human faces.

The most striking thing about this huge hexagonal black box is that there are no sea creatures attached to the surface of the box, which is a stark contrast to the other boxes.

Because they had seen the photos of the coffin before, Liu Cong and Chen Ziyang knew that this huge hexagonal black box was the coffin containing the body of Black Fujioka.

With a crisp sound of "pop", the coffin nail that had been trapped in the glass cover broke out of the cover and flew directly to the coffin. After inserting it into a pitch-black hole in the coffin, the nail of the coffin became one with its owner who had been lost for 70 years, and there was a strange sound on the coffin, as if it was very happy about the return of the lost limb.

Shortly after the coffin nail was inserted into the coffin, the coffin, which had been standing still, suddenly shook violently. A cloud of white light lit up from the coffin, and instantly expanded into a curtain of light, and the coffin became the center of the curtain.

A huge suction force that shocked people's souls suddenly came from the direction of the coffin, and everyone felt a tightness in their chests, and their hearts suddenly beat faster, and everyone felt a very awkward feeling, as if the soul that had always existed in everyone's body wanted to break out.

"Not good!" Chen Ziyang forcibly suppressed the sudden feeling of dizziness, and he hurriedly took out the Soul Suppression Paperweight from his backpack, and at the same time injected all his mana into the paperweight. A golden light flashed, and the huge Soul Suppression Sigil shone with a golden light, confronting the white light curtain in front of it.

This time, the light curtain emitted from the coffin was much stronger than the previous light curtain in the sea, and Chen Ziyang also felt that this huge suction was much greater than the suction he felt in the sea wearing a deep-sea diving suit, and he couldn't compete with this light curtain for too long with the soul suppression paperweight in his hand alone.

"Liu Cong, I can't hold on for long, think of a way!" After squeezing this sentence out between his teeth, Chen Ziyang didn't say a word, and used all his strength to fight against the suction of the coffin.

Liu Cong and others, who lost their minds for a moment, suddenly woke up after the soul repressant was powerful, Liu Cong's team members used the weapons in their hands to fire at the coffin, after the sound of ping-pong, sparks splashed on the coffin, but the bullets on the coffin did not play a role at all, this coffin was very hard, not afraid of any bullet attack at all, and the white light curtain still existed in front of everyone's eyes.

Even if he knew that the iron book that he had been looking for was near the coffin, in the big pile of boxes in front of everyone, Liu Cong didn't look for it immediately, he knew that if he couldn't crack the coffin, everyone would be foolish if they wanted to leave here, and it was useless to get the iron book, there was no way to take it away alive, and he had to find a way to crack this weird coffin.
