Chapter 76: Encounter Again
After experiencing the false alarm of the ghost ship before, the speed of the ship was significantly faster, and it rode the wind and waves towards the distance.
The atmosphere on the ship was also much more lively, and everyone had a sense of prostration for the rest of their lives, and some people simply drank rum in their arms.
At noon, the watchtower observer at the highest point of the ship seemed to have discovered something again, and shouted to everyone: "There is a ship parked not far ahead, and the flag seems to be from the previous Man-Eating Shark Company." ”
The old captain came out of the control room at this moment, climbed the watchtower with his pipe in his mouth and looked at it without smiling.
Sieg also came to the deck, and for some reason, since the ghost ship had circled, Sig could sense that the old captain seemed to be deliberately distancing himself, and his expression had always been solemn, as if he was preoccupied.
"Go over and see. The old captain commanded suddenly.
The Blue Jewel continued on its way, and soon approached the man-shark merchant slave trap moored in the sea.
This slave catcher belongs to the Man-Shark Chamber of Commerce, and is now quietly moored in the black sea, because there are no waves or winds, so it is as quiet as time stands still.
Many sailors came to the edge of the deck, one by one, probing their heads to look at the ship opposite.
Then, the view from the opposite deck of the ship came into view, and all the sailors couldn't help but take a few steps back.
It's an eerie scene!
There were quite a few people on the slave catcher, all of them standing in their original positions, but as if time had been fixed, everyone froze on the spot, motionless.
Slaves mopping the floor with rags on deck, sailors clinking glasses of rum and drinking booze, and musketeers patrolling around with leather whips......
The vivid characters all stayed motionless at the moment, and even the smiles on their faces seemed to be fixed, like human wax figures.
The whole slave catcher was lifeless, and there was no trace of life.
Sigurt knew that those people were already dead......
"Isn't this the same ship we met before?" said one of the sailors, startled and frightened.
"It's the slave trap ship of the Man-Shark Chamber of Commerce, and it looks like they should have encountered a ghost ship. The old sailor, who had some experience on the sea, said in a deep voice.
Ghost Ship ......
Sigur swallowed a mouthful of saliva and watched the scene in front of him.
"They...... All have their souls drained. Seeger could naturally see that the people on the slave hunter ship had lost their souls, and only an empty shell shelf was left untouched.
Now there is no wind or waves on the sea, but then all it takes is a gentle breeze and a slight shake, and everyone here will fall with a bang.
Judging from their expressions, it seemed that all the people on the other side had their souls drained at once, unconscious. Sieg is also a little chilled now.
If the souls were extracted one by one, the expressions of the remaining living people would naturally show frightened, frightened, and even desperate distorted faces, but now on this slave fishing ship, everyone's expressions are maintained as usual, which is definitely to extract everyone's souls in an instant without giving them any reaction!
There are at least hundreds of people on that slave capture ship, and the existence that can extract the souls of hundreds of people at once, even if it is the current Sige, I am afraid that there is no possibility of survival!
"The ghost ship must have smelled them before, so it turned halfway. The onlookers began to sigh and rejoice.
"That is, they helped us block a shot!"
"The Lord of Light is indeed protecting us. ”
Sailors are afraid of mysterious events, and their only psychological solace is probably the belief in their hearts.
Sigurt shook his head, his gaze looking in the other direction, at the bow of the slave catcher.
At this moment, a huge cross is also erected in front of the head of the slave fishing ship.
The blessing of the Lord of Radiance did not work.
So why did the previous ghost ship suddenly turn around?
Sieg doesn't know, but it's good that he can get away with it.
"Don't look at it. The old captain walked down, and the parrot still stood on his shoulder, and said in a condensed voice, "Speed up, and try to get out of this sea as soon as possible." ”
They didn't want to stay here for a moment, after all, there was a ghost ship roaming the sea.
Time in anxiety always passes very slowly.
The Blue Jewel almost pushed its speed to the limit, breaking through the waves and making a striking mark on the black sea.
After witnessing the tragedy on the man-eating shark slave catcher, none of the sailors here could laugh.
The atmosphere on board also began to turn oppressive.
But fortunately, this did not last long, and finally, at the end of the intersection of the sea and the sky, a thin blue line was revealed.
That's the sign of the blue sea!
"We're going out soon!" the observer on the watchtower shouted excitedly
In an instant, all the crew members rushed onto the deck, looking at the blue sea in the distance, excitedly waving their hats.
As long as they get out of this Wraith Sea, they will be completely safe!
Thinking about this journey, it was also unlucky, they had encountered something like the ghost ship that only existed in legends, and if they could get out alive, it would be enough for these sailors to blow for a lifetime.
Sieg stood at the edge of the deck, blowing the sea breeze, but his heart did not relax in the slightest. He has a habit of never letting his guard down until he is absolutely safe.
After all, it's still in the Wraith Sea!
The Blue Jewel resounded with a cheerful rhythm and ran towards the blue sea.
However, things quickly took a turn for the worse!
I saw that at the junction of the blue sea and the black sea in the distance, there was a three-trick sailing ship with a faint green light standing quietly at this moment.
The sailboat is moored at the junction of black and blue, and the sails on the ship are windless and automatic, as if they are quietly waiting for something.
After seeing this scene, the sailors who were originally smiling suddenly froze on the spot.
Sig's pupils shrank, and the palm holding the guardrail also slammed into force.
"Damn, it's happened again!" said Sigger's face began to tremble.
The Blue Jewel slowed down sharply, and finally came to a halt, facing the dark green sailboat opposite.
The atmosphere suddenly froze.
"Quick, bring the cross up!"
Soon, the panicked voices of the sailors broke the solidification, and the entire Blue Jewel fell into deep fear again.
The huge cross was carried up by many sailors again, but this time the ghost ship on the opposite side ignored it.
As everyone watched with trepidation, the ghost ship slowly headed this way.
Sieg's heart also rose to his throat, and he made up his mind that if he had to die, he would do it with all his might!
The ghost ship wrapped in a dark green light was slow, and the Blue Jewel did not turn to flee because it was useless, and the people on board were terrified, and they kept waiting for the miracle of the last time to come.
Finally, when the ghost ship was less than five hundred meters away from the Blue Jewel, a mutation occurred.
I saw that the waves below the ghost ship began to roll up, pushing the ship into the sky, as if something was under the ship, surging to the surface......
Wrong!!
Sigger's eyes widened suddenly, because there was an incredible scene in front of his eyes.
