Distraught, Hades threw away the hilt of the knife in his hand and crouched beside the girl, watching her quietly.

The door of the warehouse was closed, and the light from the outside world could not penetrate inside, causing the two to hide in the darkness, and they were getting farther and farther away from the chaotic world.

He was waiting, waiting for the moment when his heart hardened and became cold-blooded, taking her life, and then he could announce to the world that he was in ruin.

As the minutes ticked by, Hades' eyes opened hollowly, and he didn't know how long he had been here, only that the rain had stopped outside, and the sky was bright and dark, dark and bright.

Suddenly, a red dot lit up in the system, interrupting his state of emptiness.

Hades came back to his senses hesitantly, clicked on the system interface, and saw that behind the [Basic Interface] [Construction Options] [Ship Spirit Enhancement], there was a new "??? "Unlocked completed.

The gray handwriting on the dark background lit up, it was ...... [character partner].

Curiously, he opened the interface of [Character Companion], and saw that there were countless empty slots on it that could add characters, and in the first position of these empty slots, there was a drawing of a brig, and there was a little boy in black on the boat, which was himself.

Hades glanced at the introduction and purpose of the feature.

[When a character survives on a ship for 24 hours, the host can send an invitation to the character to become a member of the ship.] The crew can enjoy some buff effects as the host's strength increases, and bond with the host, comprehend the combination of skills, if the person refuses to join, the host can not be invited again (there is only one chance, please use the host with caution). 】

Character Companion ...... Crew?

Hades understood the meaning of the system, and glanced at the black-haired girl lying on the ground in front of him.

I'm afraid she unlocked this function, after all, according to the time of the outside world, she has been in a coma on the ship for 24 hours, and she is eligible for the invitation.

Sure enough, Hades found a girl-like avatar just above the empty slot that can add characters in the [Character Partner] interface.

The appearance of this avatar means that the girl has successfully entered the alternate area, as long as she sends her an invitation, if she chooses to agree, she can add her avatar to the empty slot and officially become her own crew.

Hades looked at this childish avatar and wanted to laugh, this is really like a game, if he can't really feel the reality of this world, I'm afraid he will think that he is playing a new game.

Just as Hades was complaining about the system, the girl who had been in a coma in the warehouse for a day and a night finally woke up.

I rubbed my eyes in confusion, only to feel that the surroundings were dim, I was in a place where I couldn't see my fingers, and I wanted to get up from the ground, but because the water had not been stained for 24 hours, and the grains of rice had not entered, I was a little unable to make it hard, and I climbed three times in a row before I successfully stood up.

The chaotic memories gradually became clear as consciousness became clear.

She remembered that she had escaped from the family and the navy, and that she had encountered a storm at sea, and that she had finally come across a ship, and that she had just entered the warehouse when she was locked inside.

Yes, that's right, that's right!

The girl remembered it all.

Looking around, a shallow gap was revealed in the wooden wall on the right-hand side, allowing the outside light to barely shine in, illuminating the corner of that place along the gap.

The girl walked towards the light, and walked a few steps to get there, but she didn't notice her feet, and suddenly with an exclamation of "ah", she tripped over Hades, who was squatting near her, and fell face to the ground.

"Who?!"

The girl curled up and took a half-step back to the side, and she could feel that she was bumping into someone.

There are other people in this warehouse besides yourself?!

"Who's there?" The girl's weak voice asked.

Hades slowly got up and actively exposed himself to the faint light.

A vague silhouette fell into the girl's sight, it was a child as old as herself, wearing black clothes and pants, with short hair, and a pair of black and white eyes staring at her unclear features.

As he got closer, she could smell an indescribable odor, like the smell coming from inside the slaughterhouse when passing by the island on the island, probably after not taking a shower in many days.

"You're locked up here, too?" The girl subconsciously thinks that the boy in front of her is suffering the same as herself.

"How did you get in?"

"Is this a ship for human traffickers to capture slaves?"

“......”

Faced with the girl's continuous questions, Hades was silent, just still looking at her.

The girl thought he was too stupid to speak, so she comforted him, "It's okay, we'll get out." ”

It's no wonder that she admits her mistake, Hades's juvenile appearance is too deceptive, and with the integration of all kinds of strange information on this ship, it really has some similarities with the slave ship.

I still remember that after she sneaked on the ship, she searched for fresh water and daily necessities, which would be necessary on all merchant ships, fishing ships, even pirate ships, but it was as if they did not exist on this ship.

In her mind, only slave ships that despise human life would do so.

She identified the guess in her heart, and when she saw the boy in front of her again, she felt a little sympathy and pity.

With a "coo", the girl's stomach suddenly screamed, and the originally small sound seemed to be magnified tenfold in this empty and silent environment.

In the darkness, the girl's face turned red unconsciously.

After not eating for so long, she had already lost even the feeling of hunger, and only the purest physiological reaction remained, reminding her that her body needed energy.

The girl felt for the only half of the bread left in her clothes and was about to open her mouth to bite it, only to find that the boy was still looking at her.

After hesitating for a moment, the girl divided the bread in her hand into a small part and handed it over.

"I can't give you much, because I'm hungry too, but don't worry, I'll find a way to take you out when I replenish my strength." The girl's words were very confident, as if she already had a way to get out of here.

Hades was stunned, and looked at the little hand stretched out in front of him in disbelief, and the small piece of bread in his hand had aroused his appetite for some reason.

He hadn't eaten anything since he crossed here, at first he had no food to eat, and then he realized he didn't need to eat.

But this time it was different, Hades stared at the shriveled bread on the little hand, it was clearly hard, but it still smelled enticing.
