In the deep sea, the icy waters are as calm as ever, without a ripple. The shipwreck, covered in seaweed shells, is as dark and quiet as ever, except for the occasional sea creature that swims by, everything is still, as if all these scenes are just freeze frames. But just from the outside, it's different.

The second floor, where the light of phosphorus algae cannot reach, is also a long corridor. A pillar of light shot straight ahead along the corridor, and although the converging columnar light could not illuminate the entire corridor, the point of the light could be illuminated in detail. At the end of the pillar of light, there were five halos representing the five members of the adventure group, and in the hazy halo, the five people formed a formation of preparation formations and slowly advanced in the corridor. Since encountering the raid of the Nightmare, several people understood that the wreck was not as calm as they had imagined, and they also took the due caution of the adventure and carefully explored the wreck.

In the corridor on the second floor, there were only a few debris, the remains of a few iron barrels, four or five fragments of broken crystal mirrors, and a few unknown pieces of light metal, which were all sundries. The most in the corridor are still white bones, one with white bones, lying in the water in various postures, being pressed by the nail leaves and unable to float. Most of the bones were distorted, and the appearance of the corpses showed their painful struggles before dying. The skulls of each corpse have long mouths, and it is conceivable that at the last moment of their lives, they desperately want to breathe the last breath of air, but this ordinary easy action is not exchanged for life-sustaining breath, but into the lungs is deadly cold seawater.

Walking among the corpses, the maidens seem to span thousands of years, and it seems that they can see the scenes of the past. On the calm sea shrouded in dense fog, several controlled Sea Tribe leader ships weave through the thick fog, bypassing the threat of reef after reef and heading for an unknown destination. Suddenly, the calm waters set off huge waves, and a huge force entangled all parts of the ship's hull, pulling the entire hull intact into the bottom of the sea. The extremely high water pressure pressed the hull to let out a continuous wail of disintegration, and the strong pressure stretched open every harmless gap in the hull, pouring into the cabin from all directions. In the corridor on the second floor, the elite troops composed of these low-level professionals fell into a panic, even fanatics, in the face of the irresistible force of nature, they had no countermeasures, and wanted to climb onto the deck to escape from the cabin, but the ubiquitous water pressure and turbulent water completely destroyed their hope of survival, and they were wearing heavy scale armor without any possibility of struggle, they could only let the sea mercilessly swallow them. They were overhead by the sea, but they were still struggling, scratching in mid-air with their hands like crazy, but they couldn't find a straw to survive, and the bubbles spat out of their grown mouths, and the bubbles floated upwards in strings, and finally broke in the gaps in the cabin that had not yet been swallowed by the sea, and the broken bubbles were like their lives, which had been destroyed before they had completed the journey, and there was no trace of them after the destruction.

Pushing open a hatch, the rotten hatch burst with a slight touch, and a skeleton leaning against the hatch poured out of the hatch and fell to the ground, the scattered bones burrowing out of the cracks in the scales and floating to the top of the cabin. In addition to the bed, there was only a box at the head of one of the beds, nay, only the remains of the box, which had long since been eroded by the long time and the ubiquitous sea, and had become incomplete. There were a few gold coins scattered around the chest, and the surface of the gold coins had already appeared red rust spots, but they regained their original brilliance with a light rubbing. Next to the coin was a spar pendant, the rope on which had melted into the sea, but the body of the hedron remained intact, the spar was translucent, and a long lock of golden hair was faintly visible inside.

"This is the last one. Catherine put the spar ornament back into the broken box, feeling a little inexplicably depressed, she could only forcibly leave what she saw behind, and cheered up and said, "But the cabin of the important person has not been found yet." ”

"It seems that the only way to go down is to keep going. Vivien pushed Catherine out of the box from behind, and said casually, "But luckily, I thought there would be a few nightmares to explore this level." ”

"It's unlikely that there will be a lot of that. Pannis looked at Lina and asked, "Even if you are a son of a god or a god favorite, it is unlikely that you will be able to support the consumption of these things without limit. ”

"Not necessarily. Lina shook her head and said, "But it's not really important, I'm more puzzled by another thing, Timos has fallen, and the Sect of Nightmare and Fear has also perished, there's no doubt about it." However, the nightmares that were attached to the power of Timos's dreams, or directly to the divine power of Timos, should also disappear with Timos. But now you have also seen that not only have the nightmares not disappeared, but they have not lost any of their strength, where is the source of their power?"

"It's hard to have answers to these questions. Pannis said, "After all, the gods have too many secrets that are not known to mortals. ”

"Actually, that's pretty much the answer to your question. Lina nodded, "Ordinary professionals may not be able to support too many summoned creatures, but as a bishop who acts as a god on earth, it is not necessarily, and the gods have too many ways to cheat." ”

"Then be more careful on the third floor. Freya thought for a moment, and with a flick of her fingers, four cone-shaped tetrahedron the size of a human head popped out of her, three of them clinging to the ground in a triangle at the feet of the five people, enclosing the five people in the middle, and the other floating in the middle of the top of the five people's heads, and the four metal objects formed a cone around everyone in the exact same shape as each object, covering all of them from all angles. Once the five-person formation began to move, the four metal bodies would also float with it, as if they had their own consciousness: "Magic Buster 75, my original puppet that combines machinery and magic, can form a force field to effectively defend against the magic attacks of the legendary tier and its subordinates, and can disassemble and absorb the magic power of the attack to strengthen its own defense force field." It's not too practical, four golems are a weakness, and if the enemy targets the golem and attacks, it can be easily destroyed, but I guess those nightmares aren't smart enough to think of destroying them. ”

"It's good enough, at least to avoid being raided. Vivien made a lifting motion with her left hand on her chest, and a disc formed by the sea quickly took shape in her hand. Freya was stunned for a moment, then released another rat-shaped puppet, took out a tear of light and fixed it on the puppet's head, Vivien waved her staff on the puppet with her right hand, and Freya controlled the puppet to enter the staircase leading to the third floor.

The rat-shaped golem jumped and floated down the stairs, and on its body, Vivien's Eye of the Mage had already begun to work. In the disc that Vivien held in her hand, there was a scene of violently shaking as seen by the Mage's Eye.

The stairs on the third floor weren't long, and the golem quickly sneaked to the bottom and began to swim around the stairs clinging to the ground, and the area around the stairs looked no different from the second floor, except that there weren't as many corpses as they were. After confirming that there was nothing strange at the entrance to the third floor, let alone the presence of nightmares, Vivien nodded to Catherine. Catherine made a gesture of understanding, holding her shield and descending the stairs first.

The space on the third level was still dark, lit only by the huge illuminator behind Catherine. As soon as she stepped into the third floor, Catherine noticed that it was slightly higher than the previous two floors, and that the sea at the top of the hallway was empty, with hardly any floating objects. Looking down the corridor, there are only seven hatches in the long corridor, which means that there are only seven rooms on the entire third floor, which is much more spacious than the more than 20 cabins on the upper two floors.

"I'm afraid we've found a place. Catherine stared at the dark hallway and said in a low voice, "Change is the best news, and fewer rooms mean more importance." ”

"It seems that this is the case. Pannis, who was at the end of the team, was the last to walk down the stairs, looked at it through the pillar of light, and said, "If this is the place where the top combat power of the Nightmare Sect lives, does it mean that they have at least seven strong people in total?"

"Seven demigods?" Lina asked curiously, "Isn't it a bit much?" ”

"Do you think the demigods are the Pasguo on the side of the road?" Pennis rolled his eyes: "Although at the end of the Third Age, because of the existence of the Sons of God and the Divine Dependents, the number of demigods on the surface increased to hundreds, but it is too exaggerated to have seven demigods in any small sect. However, maybe Timos used some strange method to temporarily increase the combat effectiveness of these people, otherwise relying on the words of two or three demigods, there is no difference between provocation and suicide in the deep sea. ”

"Well, I also don't think it's possible for two or three demigods to kill those two outside. Lina said, "It's not as simple as one plus one for the sea beast and the sea clan to work together. ”

"Of course not. Pannis nodded: "That sea beast may be able to be killed by a demigod, but if there is a sea tribe in it that can control it, I'm afraid that three or four demigods may not be able to win the siege, so ......"

"Look, what did we find?" Vivien exclaimed. In the intervals between the conversations between the few people, Vivien and Freya had already cooperated and began to explore inward. Neither of them moved forward, but cautiously stayed in place, controlling the rat-shaped puppet to slowly swim to a hatch. The rat-shaped golem stood up on its stomach outside the hatch, its two front paws attached to the door and began to scratch hard, and the rotten hatch was easily broken through a small hole, and the golem burrowed into the chamber and reflected the scene inside on Vivien's seawater mirror.
