Chapter 119: Strange Things on the Ship
The Snowflake docked on an uninhabited island for two days, and on the afternoon of the third day, it officially set off again, heading for the shores of the Pena Kingdom.
The boat was calm for two days, and several members of the Iris Adventure Group had played on the boat, and they also lost interest in the entertainment venues on board, almost all of them were either blowing on the deck or locked up in their rooms.
However, on an ordinary morning, an extremely strange thing suddenly happened on the ship, and a lady's child disappeared inexplicably and disappeared.
The lady was a nobleman in the kingdom of Pena, and she was so anxious that her child was missing, and she frantically asked the captain to find the child.
The disappearance of someone on board for no reason was also a very serious matter for the captain, and he immediately dispatched all the seafarers to search for the lost child of the lady on board.
But how can the passengers on the luxury cruise ship be so easy to search. Anyway, the progress was slow, and the captain had to deal with the lady who had lost her child every day.
Then something even stranger happened, and other children disappeared one after another, until they were more than ten years old, and now the passengers on the ship were completely blown up, and the captain was so big that he wanted to kill himself.
But the seamen searched every corner of the ship, but found nothing.
The Snowflake had just come out of the shadows of the ghost ship attack, and it was really unfortunate that this kind of thing happened.
But even so, because of the noble status of the passengers on the ship, the captain still did not dare to make a statement, and locked all the passengers in the room, after all, some big people are just as serious as if they were angry.
In the past few days, Talia has also said that there are strange eyes staring at her, but every time she wants to take the initiative to explore, she can't find anything. It feels very strange.
As for An Ling, needless to say, that kind of peeping was already commonplace for him, and he could feel it from the first day on the ship, but he didn't pay attention to it later.
One night, the Snowflake was still brightly lit, but the deck was already dark, and almost no one was moving.
An Ling was lying on the boat in the room, and suddenly felt that he heard someone singing about the abyss, and he couldn't help but hook the corners of his mouth, got up directly from the bed, and said to the two girls beside him: "I'll go out and blow the wind." ”
After speaking, without waiting for them to reply, An Ling had already disappeared into the room.
After leaving the cabin room, An Ling silently recited a spell and cast a shadow magic "Black Cloak", hiding his whole body in darkness and shadows from anyone.
This is not a dark spell, just a simple and pure shadow magic, but it is still recorded in Yago's notes, and An Ling also learned it by the way.
There was an abyssal cult on the ship, which An Ling knew from the beginning. And these people are singing the praises of the abyss every night, and An Ling can hear it every day.
An Ling guessed that there was a high probability that they would do something, but he didn't expect it to take so long to exert their strength, and they were still doing things like snatching children.
He always knew where the snatched children were, but what disappointed An Ling was that after those Abyss Sect took away the children, they simply locked them up and did nothing, which made An Ling a little uncomfortable.
Today, those people seem to have captured a sufficient number of children, and now they are gathered together, as if they are about to perform some kind of mass ritual.
An Ling waited for so long, and when he saw that they were finally about to start working, he couldn't bear it anymore and planned to come over to "watch the ceremony" in person.
All the way to the largest and most luxurious room on the ship's board, An Ling did not knock on the door, nor did he make any sound, but only gently passed through the iron wall and entered this room.
It was the room of an old marquis of Pena, who was one of the most precious guests on board, and even on a ship, he had a room of exaggerated size.
The various luxurious decorations in the room need no description, and now the focus of everything is in the huge and filthy magic circle in the room, and the four children lying on the magic circle, who are helped hand and foot, blindfolded.
There were two men and two women, both twelve years old, and the children were awake at the moment, and in a state of extreme fear, all trembling and weeping.
These are the boats
The children who went missing, all of them have been locked up in this room for the past few days, and this room is very large and very well hidden. Moreover, the owner is the marquis of the Pena Kingdom, and his status is extremely noble, so the seafarers did not dare to do more searches, so they were not found to be bored.
"Didn't you say that there would be six children? Why are there only four now? ”
The white-haired, skinny old marquis angrily said to the strong man in black beside him, revealing extreme dissatisfaction.
The strong man in black didn't seem to be his subordinate, and he was unmoved by the old marquis's reprimand, and there was no half-respectful expression on his face.
I saw that he explained to the old marquis very calmly: "Marquis of Lierya, it is true that we originally had six goals, but in the end, we found that two of them had good magical cultivation. In order not to make any trouble, we eventually gave up on those two goals. ”
"What if you have magic, it's just two children, can't you be a platinum magician? You're not going to be perfunctory to me, Master Roque. ”
The strong man in black shook his head slowly, and said, "Everything must be hidden, now those crew members are already very nervous, the resident magician on the ship is monitoring the situation on the ship all the time, the slightest sound can alarm them, it is difficult for us to do things." Thank you for your understanding. ”
"Please rest assured, even if there are only four sacrifices, it will not affect the effect of the priest this time."
The old marquis shook his head with a grim face, and said loudly, "I don't doubt that the sacrifice will fail, Master Roque, but I doubt that this will affect the quality of the priest. ”
The strong man in black sneered and said, "Lord Marquis, maybe you still don't understand our plan, these children are just an introduction. Just to draw out the primer of the power of the abyss. The final sacrifice of this ritual is the life of the entire Snowflake. ”
"I promise you, after the Snowflake's memorial, you'll be at least twenty years younger. Compared to the miserly and vanished Kamimon, the Abyss's reward is always generous. ”
I agree with this statement!
An Ling nodded on the side. I feel that after listening to nonsense for a long time, I finally heard something interesting.
The old marquis sighed when he heard this, waved his hand and said, "Then, Master Roque, please start presiding over this priest, I hope everything goes well." ”
