When he first boarded the Conch, Ingres noticed the bow image. However, he did not look closely at the time, and remained in the house for most of the month, and it was the first time he had been so close to the bow of the ship.

Compared with the peace and tranquility of the Bauhinia prayer girl, the bow portrait of the Yunluo is a little more evil and flamboyant.

The snake-haired and beautiful Siren looks like the bow of a pirate ship.

While Ingres was paying attention to the bow portrait, Helen was still inquiring about Nausicaa: "Dare to ask your lordship, is Lord Asberu in the Prosperous Continent now?"

Helen's tone was full of reverence and yearning.

Angel still paid attention to the bow portrait of the ship, and said casually: "She has some things to deal with, maybe she is still in the prosperous continent, or she can find a random country and start a cat." ”

Hearing Angel's words, Helen secretly wondered if she should continue to ask about Nausicaa, but she turned her head hesitantly, only to find that Ingres was looking at the bow statue curiously.

"Your Excellency is interested in Meadowsa?"

"Medosa?"

"That's the name of this gorgon, and according to legend, she lives in the Devil's Sea, loves to feed on human brains, and everyone who looks directly into her eyes turns to stone. Helen said: "Because of her ferocity, many ships like to set her image as a bow statue to deter sea beasts." ”

"However, I don't think it's useful, the sea beast should come or come. Helen shook her head: "Moreover, the story of the medusa of the medusa is just an unfounded legend, anyway, our colleagues in the White Shell Shipping Company, including myself, have never seen her." ”

"According to you, if Medosha is so cruel that everyone who sees her will be turned to stone, then the news will not get out. Angel casually replied, "However, I don't have much interest in this Kraken, what I am interested in is ......"

"Huh?" Helen looked at curiously.

Ingres did not continue, but quietly looked at the palm of the statue of Medosa, holding a conch with a light purple gem on the top of the conch.

When he first boarded the ship, Ingres faintly felt that there was a faint aura of nightmare around the conch, and he thought that the gem was the same as the jewel in the center of the eyebrows of the prayer girl of the Bauhinia.

Later Roman did confirm this.

But when Angels looked at it now, he found that the illusionary aura around the conch had actually faded, so thin that it was almost nothing.

Although Ingres himself does not have a Nightmare Stone, he is no stranger to the characteristics of Nightmare Stone, and once the Nightmare Stone is used, it is impossible for the breath to be restricted.

Maybe the nightmare stone's magical power isn't enough?

Regardless of the speculation, the change in this stone is a clear fact.

Ingres closed his eyes quietly, and after about a minute, he opened them, a faint glow pouring out of his pupils.

At the same time, in the horizon that others could not see, the statue of the medusa of the medusa not far away, countless information symbols floated from the body. These information symbols gathered rapidly, and finally fell into the "server" of the structure in Ingres's thinking space.

After a while, Ingres's brow furrowed.

"My lord, what are you looking at, is it the stone on the conch?" Helen's voice suddenly came into Ingres's ears.

"You know Nightmare Stone, too?"

"Yes, when you encounter a powerful and invincible sea beast, you will open the Nightmare Stone. However, the sea is vast, and we have been at sea for so many years, and the chances of opening this nightmare stone are very low. As far as I know, it seems that the Conch was turned on once ten years ago, to avoid a giant Emperor Squid. ”

"Started it once ten years ago and never started again?"

"That's right. ”

Angel suddenly laughed: "Perhaps, it won't be able to start in the future." ”

Helen didn't know what Angels meant, and her face was confused.

"Has anyone touched this stone in recent times?" asked Ingres.

Helen hesitated for a moment: "No one should have moved." ”

"Then within a month, there are any transcendents other than me and Roman who have boarded the Yunluo?"

Helen still shook her head, "No." ”

"Oh. Ingres nodded knowingly, squinting at the wind-blown illusionary aura: "Go back, the sea breeze is too cold, it's not good to be sick." ”

With that, Angel turned his head and walked towards the cabin.

Helen looked at the bow of the ship suspiciously, she didn't know what Ingres' words meant, but she also knew that she was not qualified to ask Ingres questions, so she simply shook her head and walked into the room.

After being separated from Helen, Ingres returned to his room with a blank face.

As soon as he returned to the room, he heard the sound of the cloth shaking outside the window as the wind blew up his robe.

When Ingres reached the balcony, he saw a figure on the bow of the ship, and at the same time, the man turned his head to look at Ingres, it was Roman.

Roman's eyes were obscure, and the middle-aged man that Ingres had conjured up waved lazily at Roman with his signature depressed and lazy expression.

Roman's spiritual power tentacles touched the stone of the ship's bow statue, and made sure that no one had moved, and the big stone in his heart fell slightly.

At the same time, the two looked at each other for more than ten seconds.

Roman whispered a few words with his lips, then flew back to the fourth floor and disappeared.

Ingres remembered the lip and said funny: "Nosy?"

It seems that Roman himself is not only suspicious, but also quite cautious...... He and Helen stood on the side of the ship and chatted for a while, at least ten meters away from the bow statue, and the other party had to come down immediately to confirm.

It is said to be cautious, but in fact, it is more of a thief.

Because Ingres has not forgotten that the results he identified with the Eye of Narda just now were not nightmare stones held by Medosha in the palm of his hand at all, but "psychedelic gems".

Psychedelic gemstones are an unadvanced material with some illusionary functions.

Compared to such a precious thing as a nightmare stone, it is simply incomparable.

Since Helen had said that the Conch had activated Nightmare Ten years ago, it meant that at least Medosha had had Nightmare Stone in her hand. Moreover, according to Ingre's own judgment, the faint residual aura of nightmare is enough to show that within a month, the nightmare stone was replaced with a psychedelic gem.

At first, Ingres was not sure who had changed it, even though Helen had said that he was the only one who had boarded the ship with Roman, but there was always a little margin for error, and perhaps when the Conch was in port, there were transcendents who secretly visited at night. So, he just had some doubts that Roman did it.

But now I saw Roman nervously running to check, coupled with an inexplicable warning.

Needless to say, Roman committed the act of guarding and stealing.

As a guest, Ingres didn't think about exposing Roman, in the sea where there was no village in front of him and no store in the back, Roman, as the supreme commander of the Conch, even if he exposed it, it would be useless.

Angel suddenly wondered, since Roman dared to do this, had he thought about how to deal with the aftermath?

Mortals don't care, if someone from the Machine City checks it out, how should he deal with it?

Suddenly, Ingres was a little worried about the future of the Yunluo.

......

In the next few days, the Yunluo still sailed forward steadily, although there were occasional waves, but under the calm command of the two captains, they passed calmly and smoothly.

However, what is more puzzling is that in the past few days, Angel has noticed that the Yunluo has never encountered a sea beast.

Only the climate is relatively harsh, and the sea beasts seem to have disappeared.

But not long after Angel was confused, there was a sudden shout outside: "There are sea beasts!"

Angel was originally immersed in the bracelet and discussed the cut and fit of the clothes with Ayato Nano. ——Although there are problems with the color and aesthetics of nano, the hard power of being a tailor and craftsman is still very solid.

As soon as he heard the shouting outside, Angel immediately retracted his mental strength, stood up and looked out.

At the end of the ocean, there was a huge sea beast that looked like a python, its body looming on the surface of the sea, and it was speeding in the direction of the Yunluo.

The name of this sea serpent, Ingres is not too clear, but the energy fluctuations emanating from its body indicate its level: the peak of apprenticeship.

Ingres stood on the balcony and watched from afar as the python swam by.

However, he didn't make a move, since Roman wanted the resources of these sea beasts so much, he might as well leave it to him to deal with.

But when the python was already less than a kilometer away from the Yunluo, Roman still didn't make any moves.

The mortals on the deck had looked back frequently, their eyes filled with doubt and horror.

Vice Captain Helen was also on deck directing the crew, and at the same time, she was also glancing up, and she saw Roman on the balcony on the fourth floor, and also saw Pat on the third floor.

However, she knows some cats, so the main thing is to watch Roman, wondering why Roman hasn't moved yet.

But Roman was expressionless, looking indifferently into the distance, and at the same time, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked into a sneer.

Helen looked at that smile and suddenly felt a chill in her heart.

Her gaze immediately turned to Ingres, her eyes struck with pleading and prayer.

Ingres naturally noticed Helen's eyes, but he still didn't do anything before he was sure of Roman's attitude. It's just that there are some doubts in my heart, Helen shouldn't be because of the grudge against the last sea beast, and she will leave it alone now, right?

Seeing the sea serpent getting closer and closer, the vicious fangs and bloody mouth had already opened...... The sailors on board were already screaming in fear.

"Mr. Roman, why don't you do it?" asked Ingres.

After a while, Roman's voice came into the ears of everyone present: "The last time I dealt with that sea beast, I caused a slight illness in my body, and it has not recovered so far, and this sea snake may be difficult to deal with." The captain might as well change course and deviate from its tracks. ”

After listening to Helen's words, Ingres said to himself: Sure enough.

His injuries have not healed, and the surging energy fluctuations have deceived mortals, but how can he hide them from transcendents.

And how can it be too late to deviate from the course now, his attitude is completely disregarding the lives of a shipload of mortals, and maybe even the ship will be destroyed, is this guy crazy? Or is he already planning to abandon this group of mortals after stealing the Nightmare Stone?

"Oops, it seems like it's too late to change routes. It's okay, it doesn't matter if I'm injured, isn't there another adult on the ship?"

Roman's eyes narrowed as he looked at Angel on the terrace below.
