Chapter 143 The Return of the Dead

The crystal ball on the test table was the one he got from Hale a long time ago.

After continuous research and testing, including some relatively crude means, a lot of damage has been produced.

After recent research, the entire crystal ball seems to have reached the edge of being barely usable.

The reason for this is that Li Hyuk forcibly cleared some information stored inside and imported some updated information.

The source of this updated information is the crystal balls placed on the stone platform in the control room of the large bilge of the Conch.

Li He stretched out his hand, carefully picked up the cracked crystal ball, gently injected energy, and slowly activated it.

A golden light was emitted from the inside of the crystal ball, and a map was projected in midair for a moment.

Most of the entire map is the ocean, with some islands interspersed with it. At the very edge is a corner extending from the mainland, marked with dense text.

This is exactly the nautical chart used by the big ship Conch during its driving.

Unlike ordinary maps, which only mark some place names, many of the marks on the sea chart are related to wizards or mysterious powers.

At a glance, the Tomon Stone Mine on Reese Island, the Ziyuehua Plantation on Doya Island, the turbulent currents, the storm cave... Safe areas are generally marked with green fonts, and dangerous areas are marked with red fonts—in fact, you can roughly judge whether the place is safe based on the name—everything is very clear.

Looking at the edge of the chart, some information about Cape Lane and the wizarding organization can be seen at a glance.

For example, a port is marked with the words Rotten Port, followed by a line of small characters: White Fang Tower.

According to the information disclosed by the wizard Demon Heart, this rotten port is the conch ship's original plan to pick up the place, and the students will land there to study at the real White Fang Tower.

To the south of the Rotten Port, there is another port marked Cold Candle Port, followed by the same line of small words: Academy of Shadows.

Li He speculated that if there were no accidents, this might be the pick-up location of the Shadow Academy, and this is where the big ship is headed to now.

His gaze continued to move, and further south of Lengzhu Port, there was an obviously inwardly sunken area on the mainland, which was the mouth of a river.

By the river, the words "Quiet Port" are marked, followed by a line of small characters: Dark Heart Academy.

So... this is the pick-up place of the Dark Heart Academy... Li He had an idea in his mind, and then raised his eyebrows.

You see, behind "Dark Heart Academy", there is a line of smaller characters.

"Dark Heart College—formerly Solomon University."

Ok?
Li He blinked his eyes, and said to himself: So the Dark Heart Academy is Solomon University?Is it the wizarding organization that actually built this big ship?Looking at it this way, the things the other party has researched and the knowledge he has mastered are very useful to him. In addition, the other party's location is close to a certain location set by the Countess of Blood, so it is worth visiting.

"Da da da……"

Li He tapped the table with his fingers lightly, making rhythmic sounds, and kept thinking in his mind.

……

Time continued to pass, and the voyage continued to advance. After two storms and one fire rain, the big ship Conch was getting closer and closer to its destination.

According to the news revealed by the wizard skeleton when he watched the bloody fight one day, there was at most half a month before landing.

This made the depressed and desperate students see a little hope.

If there is only half a month left, we can always reach it after a long time.

Of course, there are those who never make it - with each passing day, several are killed in bloody combat and thrown into the sea.

Then a new day comes, and people continue to be killed and thrown into the sea, and it repeats.

But in the calculation, when there were still twelve days before landing, some accidents occurred.

On this day, before dawn, the sound that spread throughout the ship rang out.

"Everyone, assemble on the deck immediately! Immediately!" That was the voice of the wizard skeleton.

Accompanied by the sound, many wizard apprentices rushed down from the deck, scattered into the cabins on different floors, thumped the cabin door quickly, and shouted: "Get up, get up, and gather on the deck!"

Many students were quite puzzled, but they could feel that something was wrong. They guessed that it might be someone from the resistance group who assassinated the skeleton, which caused so much anger.

But when they all gathered on the deck, they realized that this was not the case.

There was neither a wooden platform nor a cross on the deck this time, so naturally there were no people nailed to the cross.

All that remained were three wet, rotting corpses whitishly soaked in the sea, lying on the bright red deck.

Many people recognized him as the person who failed in the bloody fight yesterday, was killed, and was thrown into the sea. They did not expect to return to the big ship today.

And this is exactly the reason for the skeleton's anger.

"Who did it? Stand up, and I'll give him a happy death." Skeleton sat on the chair, swept the crowd coldly, and questioned.

"The dead people, why did they come back to the deck? Who of you fished them up? Want to demonstrate against me in this way? Hehe, I have to say, it's more stupid and childish than stabbing me with a pile of rags, so childish that I can't stand it."

"Stand up, let me see, who is it?!"

Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, but no one stood up.

Skeleton's face was a little ugly, and with a wave of his hand, multiple green lights flew out and landed on a few unlucky students in the crowd.

It can be seen with the naked eye that the student's expression became extremely distorted in an instant, and he fell to the ground screaming, his whole body twitching, apparently suffering indescribable torture.

After convulsing for a while, the growl could not be uttered, but the eyes were round and the mouth was foaming.

One of them had the strongest reaction, his body froze for a moment, and he stopped breathing directly.

Psychic Spell: Nibo's Wrathful Punishment!
Everyone panicked, but still no one stood up.

"Why, are you still persisting?" Skeleton's eyes became more and more unkind, and with a wave of his hand, several green lights flew out.

"Ah! Ah!"

Another few unlucky students fell down.

In one breath, the skeleton tortured more than a dozen unlucky students, four of whom died directly during the torture.

But no one came forward to admit it.

This made the skeleton's expression more and more ugly.

In the crowd, Li He looked at all this thoughtfully.

Logically, only a few corpses appeared on the deck, and the skeleton of a wizard shouldn't be so angry.If it was really done by a student, there is no threat at all, just like what the other party said, such an approach is not as good as assassinating with a pile of rags, it is too naive.

Then why is the other party so angry?
Unless, the other party is not because of these corpses, or the other party may not think it was done by the students at all, but there are other reasons.

The other party is angry because of "other reasons".

Yesterday's corpse can appear on the deck, so will the corpse of the day before yesterday also appear on the deck?

What about the earlier ones?

You know, the first body that fell into the sea was not a student.

It's...the sorcerer's heart.
