【Chapter 289】 Prey and hunter
Qin Song understood as soon as she saw her nervous look, but in order to open the mine with all her might, she had to reduce the time of her clones appropriately. She could only smile and said, "Don't worry, it's okay. My body will recover, but my divine power will take some time. Therefore, most of the next few days will be in a state of meditation. Explain some things in advance so as not to be omitted."
"Hu..." Liya breathed a long sigh of relief, pursed her lips, and whispered: "Linda told us about the passage, and everyone was frightened. Qin, you are the last descendant of the sons of the stars. You are more noble than any of us, but you are so brave..."
"No, Liya." Qin Song smiled and shook his head: "I said that a true comrade-in-arms and true friends are those who dare to hand over their backs to him. Our destiny is one, one prospers and one loss."
"But..." Liya, who was born a noble, was moved, because in her eyes, Qin Song was even more noble than her, but she refused to sacrifice her life to include them.
What a glittering quality this is.
"No, believe me, just like I believe you."
Looking at the twinkling eyes and approachable smiles, Liya felt a little sore in her eyes and nodded heavily: "I understand, Qin! Each of us believes in you and is willing to hand over the back to you."
"Don't be too nervous, we will hold on." Qin Song blinked: "Tell Alice, tell Elena and others that you should never stick to form when applying knowledge, open your mind, and let go of your imagination. You will also create more miracles and don't let down the trust of the gods."
"I promise!"
"Well." Qin Song nodded: "I sensed that the god was watching us. He gave the key to the Palace of Wisdom, but every step requires us to step over in person!"
...
The sun shines through the clouds in the east, and the endless sea shimmers, and the chirping seagulls are passing by the sea, constantly searching for food for their mouths.
Where there are seagulls, it means that it is not far from the land. The Fugui Bird brig from the quiet port of Arrevin Island, with a cloak that cuts waves and sails on the sea.
Captain Snis Byrne, with a double-horned hat, stood on the deck with a sad face. He had an ordinary face, ordinary, slightly thin cheeks, blue beard, and a faint scar on his forehead. He had an extremely tall hooked nose and lush brown hair.
Recalling his experience three days ago, he still shuddered, and the howling sea breeze could not dispel the fear in his heart.
A ghost ship!
It appeared out of thin air on the sea, as if rising from the sea, hanging on it with dark green algae and thick barnacles, without sails, without sailors, and with gloomy nothing.
He did not send sailors to board the ship rashly. You should know that the sea area he is in is extremely rampant. Dark circles, red scars, hook Jack, eternal mates, these infamous pirates often make some weird things at night.
A broken ship?
Sorry, I'm not interested.
When he ordered the sails to be raised and left at full speed, something even stranger happened. The ship without sails at all was like a wolves staring at prey, always following them.
He fled all night in fear until the sunlight came, and the ship disappeared instead.
This made him sure--that was the legendary ghost ship.
Meeting a ghost ship at sea means bad luck, which makes Snis feel uneasy and full of fear of unknown dangers, as does his sailors.
...
Under the sea, a huge creature was always tightly decorated with the traces of the rich birds. There is no way, if you want to successfully find the location of the Principality of Vanden, the merchant ship is the best guide.
It was the ninth day of departure. During this period, Qin Song briefly returned to his clone every day, chatted with Alice and the others, ate some food occasionally, and spent more time answering various questions.
Qin Song re-used the same trick last night. On the one hand, he tried whether they were greedy enough, and on the other hand, he urged them to lead the way as soon as possible.
Facing a completely unfamiliar new location, Qin Song only knew about Harald's rough description and had no mature plans in his mind.
Of course, it is definitely not a headless fly that hits the great fortune.
For example, if you look for some easy-to-manipulate puppets, as his vehicle, first climb the land of the Duchy of Vanden to understand the social structure and customs.
It takes a lot of time to destroy a person's reason and turn it into a puppet. Therefore, Qin Song is still quite picky about the target, at least he must be a well-known figure like a captain, an official, and a wealthy businessman. After all, the information that the lower-level figures can access is limited.
This Captain Snis looks thirty-three or four years old, looks ordinary, and the merchant ships are ordinary, including the goods in the warehouse, which are mostly cheaper goods such as leather, dyed fabrics, wood, and olives.
The closer you are to the port, the higher the probability of encountering a merchant ship. Therefore, Qin Song has been hesitating whether to use him as a precaution, after all, his age is still a bit advantageous.
So far, after following the crowd for three days, I have indeed encountered two merchant ships. One of them was a short and fat man in his forties, and the other was a tall and low-legged man. The size of the merchant ship was not much better than that of the rich bird.
It takes a lot of time to corrode the mind. Seeing that it approaches the land, Qin Song is a little anxious. It is a waste of time to corrode when he arrives on the shore.
Until the evening, I met a third merchant ship, which was full of raw ivory, leather and raw gems, and looked quite rich. However, the captain was as ugly as a toad, which was hard to describe.
In the end, Qin Song decided that Snis would become the lucky one who was "careful" by the gods.
"Captain, that ghost ship has not appeared. Maybe you can have a good sleep." The second mate who had been watching the mast for the middle of the night gave Snis good news.
"To the omnipotent sea god Satus!" Snis shrank on the wooden bed in the captain's room, holding a glass of turbid ale in his hand, and happily drank three large glasses to celebrate the sea god Satus driving away the nightmare on the sea.
After extinguishing the whale oil candle, Snis squeezed into the blanket comfortably, relaxed and fell asleep quickly.
However, the nightmare had just begun. A Guxin demon full of terrifying mouthparts and a bloody eye demon took advantage of the night to walk along the ship's side, across the deck, and enter the captain's room through the gap under the wooden door.
The parasitic process was extremely smooth.
The poor captain had no idea that he had fallen into the palm of a tentacle monster that was more terrifying than the ghost ship.
"Black Wave!"
"Rotten sludge!"
"The dark and silent existence lives in the depths of the ocean. From the secret world, it will eventually come to the world. I am the ultimate destruction, an incomprehensible existence."
"Open your eyes, the real disaster is by your side."
The dull and gloomy voice kept ringing in Snis's ears, repeating over and over again.
However...it's useless.
Maybe the captain was not very drunk, and he got into the head with a glass of ale, and his whole mind was full of a sudden. This strange and terrifying sound did not affect him at all.
Qin Song: “…”
Your sister, don’t drink it if you can’t drink it. It’s wasted lines that have been brewing for a long time.
I waited patiently until early morning. It was dark and the screams of skua kept clamoring. The captain finally woke up from the 'hangover' and rubbed his eyes in a daze.
"Black Tide!"
"Rotten sludge!"
"That dark and silent existence..."
A strange voice came out of thin air in his mind. Snis was stunned for a moment and frowned strangely until the sound became clearer and more gloomy.
Reminding the mysterious ghost ship, Snis's hair stood up all over his body, and the fright made him jump out of the bed, and he didn't even bother to wear shoes, so he rushed out of the captain.
Second mate was cleaning the deck with a few sailors. Snis forced the repeated terrifying sound in his head, ran over like crazy, and grabbed Second mate's shoulder: "Something is talking to me, something is talking to me. My God, Sartus is on...that must be the voice of a ghost."
"Captain, what are you talking about? What ghost voice?"
"It's in my head, repeating it constantly!" Snis' eyes turned red. He put aside these sailors, used their hands and feet, skillfully climbed up the mast, and was on the sea in panic, trying to find traces of the ghost ship.
"Captain, Captain!"
"No, how could it be!" The sailors' voices made him even more irritated. Snis couldn't help but shout, "Shut up, I've been entangled by the demons...you."
Suddenly, the outline of a sailboat appeared in his vision...
"It's right there, it's right there! It's following us, it's following us. That's the devil's ship, no, stop talking, stop talking!"
The sound in his mind became louder, and Snis hugged his head in pain.
Then, a scene that shocked everyone appeared.
xiu~~
The sound of breaking through the air came.
Snys' screams came to an abrupt end. When the sailors looked up, they saw Snys' body falling heavily, and a feathered arrow was inserted into their eye sockets.
Dead!
