Section 22 The Ghost Ship (I)

The expected accident did not happen, and soon, a bright white light re-illuminated the bilge.

The faces of the five wizards all showed some fluctuations on their faces, but when the light came on, they all hid their emotions well.

Valerie shook the oil lamp in her hand dissatisfied, and muttered, "Sure enough, the oil is dry." ”

"I didn't expect Mr. Lance to be so careful. She looked at the white crystal that was gradually unfolding on the ground with some surprise.

Lance smiled silently, he had collected some white crystals and placed them in the Arcane Ring when he was passing through the White Crystal Jungle. Although these white crystals are very shy, once they leave the human hand, they will quickly stretch out, playing a good role in lighting.

The entire bilge suddenly became bright.

"You didn't notice anything unusual just now, did you?" asked Landry in a deep voice.

The other three all shook their heads.

Lance muttered for a moment, then leaned down and lifted his trouser legs.

I saw that on his right ankle, there was a blue-black handprint. It was a child's handprint.

By the light of the white crystal, everyone saw this clearly.

At this moment, even Valerie, who was the most disdainful, changed her expression: "This is ...... What is this thing?"

Lance shook his head: "I don't know, I heard a child's laughter just now, and then I felt someone trip over me. I immediately threw out the white crystal. ”

"Child's laughter?" Landry's voice changed, "Is it a little girl?"

"No, it's a little boy. Lance said calmly, "Although the voice is very thin. But I can still hear that it is a little boy. ”

"Anyway, there must be ghosts on this ship!" Landry gave an unhappy look, "If I saw something strange alone, it might be a hallucination, and now Mr. Lance has also tripped over something similar, it can't be that both of us are hallucinating?" Miss Dora, why did there be so many accidents in this operation?"

Dora smiled wryly, "I'm sorry, I saw it in that book, too. It is clearly stated that this is the correct way to get to the castle of Sivalet. ”

"I guess it doesn't say what the probability of an accident is. Landry was still dissatisfied, and said, "Honestly, if this ship can be turned around, I'd rather go straight back to the voyage than the resources and treasures you promised." Who knows how many such [accidents] await us ahead of the road?"

Dora shook her lips and looked a little downcast. Silence was chosen.

"Needless quarrels are just a waste of time. Lance stood up. There was a strange glint in his eyes: "I think we need to do a good job of searching the cabin of this ship." ”

"There are three floors on this ship, and I am in charge of the first floor. He first proposed.

"I'll be with you, Mr. Lance. Landry said.

"I'm in charge of the bilge. Sacra said.

Naturally, Dora and Valerie could only choose the second layer.

The group of five immediately separated. Lance and Landry went up to the cabin on the first floor.

"Mr. Lance, what do you think we're seeing...... What the hell?" Landry followed closely behind Lance. This apprentice from Rainbow Island is tall and tall. But it looks like a little bit of courage. No wonder it was teased by Valerie.

"Spirits, or ghosts, who knows?" Lance wasn't too scared.

Humans are inherently afraid of the unknown. But none of these five are ordinary humans, they are wizards, and they have great power. And they are not ignorant of things like spirits and ghosts, and in the puppet city, he has also fought with the undead puppeteers. Spells are enough to deal damage to them.

On the other hand, if there are enemies or monsters on this ship, then the strength of these enemies is definitely not strong enough. If the enemy is strong, there is no need for them to hide and hide, trying to scare Lance and the others with some little tricks.

“...... Therefore, they do not dare to appear directly in front of us because they have a weak heart. They don't have to be our opponents. ”

Lance explained.

Listening to Lance's confident voice, Landry settled down a little. However, he still didn't dare to go too far from Lance, and followed him step by step.

"Let's start here, shall we?"

Although his tone was asking, Lance didn't wait for his companion's consent at all, and pushed the door open and walked in.

There is no dust or cobwebs, and behind the clean hatch is a neat and orderly house.

There are not many ornaments inside, a small closet, a small bed, and a rattan leather box on the side. There is a writing desk in the corner with several books on it.

A standard seafarer's room that looks like it's always occupied.

Landry followed behind Lance, his hand pulsing with a rainbow of light—a small ring, the inner part of which was divided into seven sections, each of which shimmered with a different color. This is Rainbow Island's featured lighting item, the Rainbow Ring.

Lance walked into the corner and placed a piece of white crystal on his desk, and in a few moments a bright white light filled the room.

Landry suddenly let out a sigh of relief, and then smiled a little self-deprecatingly: "Light always gives strength, doesn't it?"

"Relax. Lance relieved, "Let's see what's in this room." ”

The two of them began to inspect the furnishings of the entire room.

Lance flipped through the small stack of books on the desk and opened them one by one. The books are all ordinary readings, and the only feature is that they are written in the abyssal language. Fortunately, Lance's research on the Abyssal language had reached the third stage, the refinement level, and these words were basically difficult for him.

"It's boring. Lance flipped through each book. The first few books were all for nothing.

As a result, when he was flipping through the last book, he found a folded piece of oiled paper in the pages of the book.

This piece of oiled paper is very smooth to the touch and has a light yellow appearance.

Lance put the book down and unfolded the sheet of oiled paper.

Halfway through the stretch, Lance realized that the front of the paper looked like an oil painting.

Lance's heart moved, he combed it with his right hand, and immediately spread the whole piece of paper on the desk.

In the next second, his scalp was faintly numb-

The baby has a venignant look in his eyes, and the breastfeeding mother looks directly at Lance.

His head almost exploded!

This oil painting turned out to be the one he had seen in the corridor of the Gray-Eyed Cultist's laboratory!

"Damn, what's going on!" Lance's mind was a little foggy.

He subconsciously turned his head, but the next moment, a cold chill ran down his spine and went straight to his head—

The room was still clean and tidy, but he was the only one left!

I don't know when Landry disappeared. And it disappeared silently.

At this time, the white crystal on the desk jumped slightly, and it actually began to dim.

Soon, the room was dark.

All that remained was the sound of his own slightly disorganized breathing.

......

On the second floor of the cabin, Dora and Valerie are walking back and forth in a cargo room.

"Do you think there are ghosts on this ship?" asked Valerie as she walked, "I don't believe in that, we are wizards, we believe in truth and magic. Only ignorant witches and witches are superstitious about sacred and weird things—oh, and even more ignorant magicians. ”

"There are no absolutes. Dora opened a crate, which was empty and empty. "But I trust Lance's judgment. ”

"That Mr. Lance...... It's a bit unfathomable. Valerie said meaningfully, "He was the first to arrive at the base of the Gray-Eyed Cult, and that Foreland was also subdued by him, but he never mentioned anything about the blood of the true gods. ”

"Maybe he forgot. Dora frowned, unwilling to continue on the topic.

Valerie raised an eyebrow, and suddenly, she snorted.

"What is this?"

She found a slightly larger box at the back of all the crates, which had been tightly sealed.

On the top of the box, something fluffy was leaking through the cracks.

The two women glanced at each other and walked over.

Valerie carefully put on her gloves and reached for her.

She grabbed the furry things and looked at them closely, and her expression changed.

"What's wrong?" Dora asked.

Valerie's voice trembled slightly:

"It's ...... Hair...... human hair, and not a person's. (To be continued......)
