Don't follow the rules

Fortunately, they turned around in time, and the surrounding wave of evil spirits did not discover Hathor's spiritual thoughts hidden in the fig forest. Instead, they noisily followed Ning Yao and the others in a large turn to the River Styx in the distance.

Similar to myths and legends around the world, the River Styx here is also used to divide the waters between Yin and Yang.

It corresponds to the Nile River on the ground and is the most important transportation road in the entire underworld. In the past, when the Sun God visited the underworld, he took this waterway in a solar sailboat.

Precisely because it bears the heavy responsibility of transportation, the River Styx itself does not have any special properties. The river water is neither dangerous nor will it swallow evil spirits. In fact, it is not very beneficial to Ning Yao and the others who are being pursued. terrain.

But after several encounters, Ning Yao noticed that the bodies of these mummies were extremely dry and thin. According to common sense, it should be difficult for them to float on the water.

It seems that Hathor must not be good at water fighting, so he would say that they were washed ashore when the Styx River swelled after a heavy rain; if he could swim, he would not have said "washed ashore", but would have said that they were washed ashore. It is widely distributed and can come and go freely on land and water.

With a glimmer of hope, he stepped on the boat and rushed into the River Styx, hoping that the voyage would go smoothly.

Ning Yao's luck has always been weird, both dark and European. She can probably be classified as the "African Snow White Princess".

The mummies chasing behind him were indeed as he expected. They had no ability to float and swim at all. They either flopped and sank to the bottom, or were stirred by the whirlpool of the Styx and drifted with the current. They had no time to block Ning Yao in the boat.

But in the River Styx, there are still more difficult and endless corpses swimming around...

The Inferi are a type of water ghost, but they are considered an alternative among water ghosts because they, like the mummies just now, are zombie-type monsters that have no consciousness or thinking at all and act solely on bloodthirsty instincts.

They live in water and love cold and moist places. They are greedy and bold by nature. They will attack ships on rivers in groups, dragging sailors on board into deep water and drowning them for food.

And the water-dwelling corpses, like the mummies, are all immortal evil spirits that have been exiled here.

However, the Inferi hate dryness and are afraid of direct and hot sunlight, so in the past, ordinary ships sailing on the Styx would have a fishing lantern lit by the sun's flame on the bow.

As long as there is sunlight, these Inferi can only sink deep into the water without daring to make any mistakes.

The Sun Sailing Boat has sailed on this river countless times, and each time it carried the Sun God himself. Although he had rich sailing experience, he had never lit a fishing lantern.

But now, the restored prototype boat has been surrounded by the Inferi.

Suddenly, a wet arm was placed on the hull, cold and stiff, glowing with a lifeless bluish white.

It tentatively grabbed the edge of the boat, but was kicked off by Ning Yao.

But this kick did not scare the Inferi, but made them even more excited.

This boat has no lights and there are people!
Soon, one, two, and countless arms came up.

Ning Yao only had two legs and couldn't kick him over.

What's even worse is that although these Inferi have no brains, they are extremely experienced in hunting. They just keep putting their arms on the side of the boat to hang themselves, and do not climb onto the boat as a whole, so as to prevent them from being hunted by others. Unadapted to the battlefield and premature contact with the enemy.

The Inferi Hunting Group had no intention of boarding the boat directly and driving away. Instead, they planned to use their weight to overturn the boat and let the people on board fall into the water.

People who fall into the water will struggle and choke in panic, and fear is also their favorite delicacy.

"Is it possible? Sun~Yang~Sail~Chun~Your Majesty~" Ning Yao still had time to mock the boat, "Aren't you the mount of the Sun God? Your work ability is a bit low."

The boat was about to cry but had no tears. He used to follow the Sun God, and he always walked sideways in the Styx with nobility and coolness. No Inferi had ever had the courage to stretch out his claws to pull at him.Now not only is the beautiful side of the ship wet with inferi, but there is also the risk of the ship capsizing. When has the sun sailing ship ever suffered such a grievance?
The boat was so angry that it swung its oar fiercely, overturning the Yin corpse on one side of the boat, and then folded the oar back into the boat, pressing Ning Yao tightly.

Ning Yao:? ? ?
I saw Ning Yao's small boat clamped down, and it pushed down the bow of the boat and plunged into the water. Like a submarine with full power, it instantly smashed the underwater hunting group of Inferi.

The Inferi who were clinging to the boat had never seen this tactic before. They were directly hit by the boat and flew more than ten meters away. There was even a vacuum zone near the boat.

Ning Yao: Gulu gulu gulu!
Xiaozhou: Shut your stinky mouth!
The boat continued to dive, and the Inferi caught up with them belatedly.

Underwater is the main battlefield for the Inferi, and they have no reason to let go of their prey.

The small boat that forced a bloody path in the water soon felt an unusual pressure, not only from the interference and obstruction from the hunting group of the Infernal Corpse outside, but also from inside the cabin, its passenger who was pinned down by the oars. It seems to be about to move.

Gollum Gollum Gollum...

A stream of bubbles emerged from the cabin.

Carrying a weak dark purple current.

Gulu gulu gulu~ (Translation: Electric fish is illegal~)

A bright and dazzling electric grid instantly spread out from the inside of the ship, spreading far and wide in the conductive water.

The calm water of the Styx began to boil, and then countless twitching and belly-turned Inferi were stirred up.

"Huh!" Ning Yao broke through the water and breathed happily.

The boat also floated up, and they thoughtfully helped the passengers empty the water inside the boat.

Ning Yao lay on her back in the cabin, knocking on the deck below her: "Did you just want to break out of the encirclement or did you want to take the opportunity to drown me?"

The boat rowed awkwardly, silently taking Ning Yao away from the body of water.

After all this trouble, he had brought the mummies on land into the ditch, and he had also electrocuted the corpses in the ditch to explode.

Although it was impossible to eliminate this group of immortal evil spirits, it was enough for Ning Yao and Xiao Zhou to completely escape the pursuit.

Quickly return to the fig forest, where Hathor has been waiting for you for a long time.

Seeing Ning Yao like a drowned rat, Hathor speculated a little and roughly understood what they had just experienced, but he was still surprised: "How could you fall into the Styx when there is a solar sailboat?"

Ning Yao glanced at the boat beside him with a guilty conscience: "Ahem, because I was in a hurry, I chose to go directly into the river to electro-fish."

Hathor smiled: "Since you are in a hurry, I won't delay you."

Ning Yao took out the perfect mummy skull and followed the calf to a fig tree.

Hathor kissed the tree trunk gently, and the fig tree's bark gently cracked a gash and rolled up to both sides.

The mellow milky white juice slowly seeped out along the slanted opening, and Ning Yao quickly caught it firmly with his skull.
