42. Fishing nets
Roy was startled by the scaly arm.
He quietly moved closer, trying to remove the celery leaf from the box to see what it was.
But the moment he flicked the celery leaf, Roy's hand suddenly stopped, and forced himself to turn around.
Because in the light of the divine glimmer, he could already see clearly what was behind the shelves...... That's the last person he wants to see, maybe he can't be called human.
The Naga killer I saw in the morning was actually hiding in the deepest part of the two rows of shelves.
Roy was really worried that he would suddenly jump out and stab himself in the back,
However, he didn't seem to make any movement, he didn't even roll his eyes, and if it weren't for the slight heaval of the gills behind his cheeks, Roy didn't even feel like he was breathing at all.
He's like a ...... leaning on a shelf Salted fish.
Is it disguised as a salted fish?
He was like the stupid emperor in the emperor's new clothes, who was obviously exposed to the light, but he didn't know it.
And I firmly believe that others will not see it......
Roy quietly removed the glimmer of light, trying to look normal, looking past as if he were looking at shelves full of vegetables......
As the glimmer of light in Roy's hand slowly moved away, the shelves and the Cana Killer melted into the darkness again.
Without the Divine Glimmer to illuminate that place, the Naga Killer was really out of sight......
Roy turned around and realized that the Naga killer still had some means of concealment.
But under the low-light illumination, he had nowhere to hide, but he didn't know it, and Roy pretended not to see it......
At this moment, Roy felt his heart beating so hard that it was almost squeezed out of his throat.
He didn't want to rid the ship's seafarers of their potential threat, so he walked back quietly.
Jasper was still standing in place, thinking about what kind of reason to find to transfer the storage room to the oars room on the lower level, when he saw Roy coming over with a glimmer of light, his eyes immediately widened, and he shouted:
"Oh, Roy, right here, don't let him run......"
Roy felt that if Jasper went to the opera house, he would definitely become a very good actor.
When he yelled into the air, the emotion he showed was very full.
When he turned, Jasper had already sprang past him, and he followed closely behind Jasper with that divine glimmer......
……
The door to the storage room was opened, and there was a dull noise.
The Naga killer quickly hid his body in the shadows in the corner of the shelf.
Two people walked in the door, and he realized that he had mistaken it, it was supposed to be an elf and a human.
And the young man he had seen in the morning, the young man who had escaped unexpectedly.
It seemed that there was nothing wrong with capturing him, and the Naga killer stared at Roy, who was indeed a member of the ship, and the weakest one.
I guessed that he was not a good person a long time ago, and when he shot in the morning, he should really be a little more ruthless......
Watching Roy and his companions mutter, the Naga killer took into account two people...... He's not very hands-on.
Once discovered, your infiltration plans will be ruined......
In addition, there were two seafarers guarding the door, and he could clearly feel the smell of blood on the two seamen outside the door, which made him hide in the storage room and not dare to act rashly.
Then he saw Roy coming with a lamp, but when he was about to walk in front of him, he suddenly turned around.
As long as Roy took one step closer, even if the Naga Killer was hiding in a dark corner, his feet would inevitably step on the Naga Killer's coiled tail fin.
When the time comes, he can't hide if he wants to, so the Cana killer is ready to stab the dagger directly into his chest.
For him, this is the right time...... Kill one, earn one!
Unfortunately, Roy was just one step away from the Naga killer when he suddenly turned around and walked back again......
His elven companion was also a little inexplicable, and he looked like a dumb melon when he first came in.
At this moment, he actually ran directly in the narrow storage room, and shouted inexplicably.
The Naga Killer thought he had been discovered by those two men, but then he realized that it wasn't the case at all......
……
In the storeroom, Roy and Jasper ran out one after the other, and when they were about to reach the door, Jasper suddenly stopped, holding a magic book and reciting a short prayer.
Suddenly, a holy light fell from the roof of the shed, like a cone-shaped pillar of light shining on the wooden floor.
The second officer, who was guarding the door of the storage room, turned around and looked inside, and saw the pillar of light that emitted a divine aura, but did not see the ghost covered by the beam.
At this time, Jasper fell on one knee and pressed one hand to the floor, and asked Roy:
"How did it get down there?"
Roy also withdrew the glimmer of light, walked over to Jasper's side, and casually asked, "What is going to be done?" ”
"Chase down, is there a staircase here?" Jasper asked decisively.
The burly body of the second mate almost blocked the door of the storage room, and he bent down to poke his bald head in......
"What's the trouble?"
Jasper pointed to the pillar of light that had not completely dissipated, and said to the second officer:
"We just saw a wraith, but it has developed a mind, and when it sees us, it has fled so quickly that it has escaped below deck......"
The second mate glanced at the two suspiciously, and then said:
"Come with me!"
He moved out of the way of the storage room door and stood in the narrow hallway hallway.
The crew member who followed the second officer stood in front of the two men, sandwiching them in the middle again......
Roy guessed that he didn't want to smash the vegetables in the storage room during the fight before agreeing to Jasper's proposal and agreeing to the two of them to chase the wraith below.
……
Just as the group passed by the kitchen, the head chef, who was directing his subordinates to work in the kitchen, deliberately ran out, blocked the corridor, and asked the second mate unceremoniously.
Roy couldn't understand what they were saying, so he felt that the second mate was so burly and strong, and he was actually very polite in front of the head chef.
Probably the head chef was in a good mood when he heard that the resentful spirit had escaped, and praised the second mate very much......
The staircase leading below deck is in the middle of the first floor.
Stretching diagonally from here, it doesn't take up much space in the kitchen.
The staircase here is more dilapidated, except for some scratches, the walls are corroded, the paint surface is also tattered, and even a little moldy.
The walls on both sides are also mottled, and it is impossible to see what paint is painted, that is, it is black, and there is even a layer of black mud stains in the places where you often touch.
Walking down the stairs, here are the cabins of the crew, one next to the other, very dense.
The hallway is a little dimly lit and there are no lights on the walls.
Roy walked in with a glimmer of light, and saw that in addition to some chores, there were a few stinky shoes lying in the hallway, which was almost impossible to hold.
The second mate stepped on the debris and walked down the corridor for a while, and a corner appeared in front of him.
Pushing open the door, you will arrive at the oar's room on the left side of the crew's quarters.
The oar's room on the right side is opposite the crew cabin, and there is a dock on that side, if he can go to that room, Roy plans to jump directly from the window to the dock, anyway, the height of more than four meters is not too high, and jumping down is at most a broken leg.
But the two were led by the second officer into the paddle room on the left, which faced the sea......
If you jump overboard, you have to jump into the sea, which is safer, but you need to swim back to the port dock if you are caught by them......
Roy was a little afraid to think about it.
The room is long and narrow, like a large bunk, the wooden oars more than ten meters long are hung on the side of the roof with a paddling position, each paddle has about eight seats, it seems that there are eight crew members of a boat, there are actually some luggage here, it seems that there should also be a crew living here.
It's just that the room is empty now......
Under the light of this sacred glimmer in Roy's hand, there were more than a dozen resentful spirits floating in the room.
The spirits here are almost completely lost, just floating motionless in the room.
The soul fire on their bodies was strong and weak, and Roy passed by these resentful spirits, and the power of holy light emitted by a glimmer of light completely extinguished the soul fire on the body of a lost undead.
Then it vanished into the air like a puff of green smoke without a struggle, and the dark blue soul was freed from the resentful bondage and took on form in the divine light.
The soul, having lost all its memories, flew into the sky without any nostalgia, and disappeared into the ceiling of the cabin in an instant.
There were many more souls wandering around the room, and Roy and Jasper carefully distinguished, some of them were dead crew members, but also some of them were Cana Sea Clan and elves......
Jasper's face turned a little pale when he saw so many wraiths.
With the power of his holy light, he couldn't purify so many dead souls at all.
His panicked look wasn't entirely frightened by these ghosts.
Seeing the ship was like a graveyard was what made him so frightened.
Roy's biggest concern was that the ship had been in port for three or four days, and it was clear that they would definitely not stay in Castletown for long.
The time of high tide tonight is about 3 o'clock in the morning, and this sea boat can leave the port at the same time as the fishing boat enters the port.
All the oars in the paddle room were ready, and the storage room was also full of food, obviously ready for the trip......
They invited Jasper to come tonight, presumably also to have him purify some of the ship's souls and then ...... They didn't even think to let him go.
Roy's arrival was a buy-one-get-one-free, and the two exchanged glances again, both seeing horror in each other's eyes.
The two of them ran almost at the same time, and they were both less than three meters away from the oars window.
Before the second mate and the seaman could react at all, they rushed out without looking back, both of them so thin that they could just slide out through the window of the oars.
But just after Roy's body slipped out of the window, Roy's mood completely fell to the bottom in the next second.
A huge trawl net stretched in front of the two of them, and Jasper and Roy fell into the net in no apparent order.
