Chapter 54: Below the Deck
When Xiao Chen and Luo Ling returned to the flagship deck of the ghost fleet, more than forty minutes had passed.
Adriana said, "When did the humans side with the Sea Clan, shouldn't these savage and obscurantist creatures be dealt with?"
Xiao Chen said: "Adriana Sage, in my opinion, every power that can be pulled over is meaningful. These sea tribes don't believe in gods, they only worship the sea itself, they have no fear of the gods of nature, why can't they be our allies against the gods of nature?"
"How much is the value of a weak person even if he becomes an ally?" asked Adriana rhetorically.
Xiao Chen said: "In this difficult situation, we should not use the size of our strength, but our position to distinguish our allies, they have already caused a lot of trouble in the battle with you, isn't it better to use such strength to deal with Divine City?"
Adriana snorted coldly, but didn't say anything more.
Luo Ling asked, "Anyway, we have let those sea tribes retreat, can you see us?"
"You're really persistent, then you can come, but maybe you will be disappointed when you see me. Remember to take off my mage robes and staff. Adriana's voice softened.
Xiao Chen and his entourage followed the guidance of the voice and walked below the deck, because there were no other living people on this ship, the cabin below the deck seemed empty, the ship continued to shake with the waves, and the old wooden planks squeaked against each other, this kind of ship usually has oil lamps or lighting spars in the cabin, but there is nothing on this ship, and the front and back are dark and dark, looking gloomy and dark. A smell of rot and smell mixed with the smell of the sea came to my face.
A small ball of light lit up next to Xiao Chen, illuminating the surrounding darkness, Roger stood in front of him, Luo Ling, Mao Kai, Ye Zi and Glade followed behind him, and several people walked forward cautiously. In the Bridge of Souls, Xiao Chen said to Luo Ling: "I have a bad premonition, no matter what, this is the flagship of a sage, for her, as long as she wants, she can easily take care of this place." But the way it looks now can only show that Adriana has no energy left to improve the environment in which she lives. ”
"Or not the cause of power, but just ...... What's the need?"
"What do you mean?"
"Do you remember what kind of person Adriana was according to Glade?"
"Manju Sawa who grows on the line between life and death?"
"The title of Manju Sawa not only means that she has the power to control life and death, but also that she is a stunning beauty. ”
"How did I not know?"
"You didn't ask Glade. But I talked to him a lot about Adriana, not for gossip, of course, but to gather information.
At that time, among the Seven Towers, there were countless people who wanted to pick this manzhu sawa. Grad described to me that wherever Adriana appeared at that time, it really shone brightly. A beauty of her level will not care about the occasion of her appearance......"
"Unless?"
"Unless she doesn't have that anymore. ”
The communication between the two in consciousness only took a moment, and in reality they only walked four or five steps away. Strangely, after they stepped off the deck, Adriana didn't make any sound. Xiao Chen screamed twice but didn't get a response, so he had to find her location by himself.
Roger pushed open the hatch of a room, and saw a dark room, with transparent ghosts standing crowded in the room, their chests against their backs, motionless like a lot of plastic models piled together. The lifeless figures all looked up at Roger as he opened the door. Rao is Roger is an experienced warrior, and when he encountered such a play, he also took two steps back.
"I'll go. It's a horror movie. Mao Kai said.
"These are just low-level ghosts, they are all commonly used by the Spirit Tower mages to cast spells, there is no consciousness, no emotion, these should be Adriana's reserves. Glade glanced into the room and said, "As long as the mages themselves don't manipulate them to attack, they won't have the consciousness to actively attack people."
It's just a little strange that most Spirit Tower mages store them in their own soul containers, but why would Adriana put them in the cabin like this?"
"What is the Soul Container?" Xiao Chen asked.
"Actually, it's something similar to a storage ring, except that it's specifically used to store souls. The "Gathering Spirit Register" in my hand is a very high-level soul container. ”
Luo Ling said: "Maybe it's damaged." Thousands of years have passed, and there are so many things that can happen. ”
The group explored several more rooms on this level, most of them containing ghosts like this, some of them were also full, others were much empty, presumably consumed during the battle.
Roger looked at a ghost holding a turban in front of him and said, "These ghosts are probably accumulated many years ago, and their costumes are not the current style, I have only seen them in ancient paintings." ”
Mao Kai said: "How can these ancient ghosts last for so long without dissipating?But according to my understanding, as long as they exist in this world, they will continue to consume energy." ”
Glade tapped the inner wall of the cabin lightly, only to see a ripple appear in his palm, and he said, "It is the spell of the Spirit Tower that deals with these souls, not ordinary undead magic. Don't you feel the magic fluctuations on the inner wall of the ship?The inside of this ship has been treated with the Spirit Tower's spirit sealing technique, which can prevent the damage of positive energy from the outside to the ghosts inside, and can also absorb the negative energy from the outside to nourish these ghosts. ”
The group walked to the end of the hallway, where there was a staircase leading down to the cabin one level below.
Roger was still on the stairs when he felt a kind of mental coercion.
Xiao Chen and they all knew that Adriana was probably close at hand.
When they turned out of the stairwell, they felt nothing but a light in their eyes.
The cabin below was much wider than above, and there were no compartments, but a whole compartment that ran through the hull, and in this cabin, the floor, walls, and ceiling were painted with fluorescent magic circles, illuminating the entire cabin in blue-green.
The perimeter of the chamber is littered with magic crystals and various magical materials. In the middle of the room was a chair as large as a throne, made up of many strange magical institutions, and in the middle of the chair, a man in a black robe sit.
