The woman had her back to everyone. Her figure was very thin, even skinny.The white objects wrapped around her body floated in the water, looking a bit like floating curtains at first glance.Her thin legs exposed from under her clothes were tied with huge and thick chains, and the other end of the chains was firmly fixed to the ground.

lAfter a while, the woman slowly turned around. She had long messy hair.The hair had not been taken care of for a long time and was as messy as a chicken coop, all stuck to her face and head.Alice tried to see her face clearly, but couldn't see anything clearly, but found that her whole body seemed to be emitting a faint light.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" A slight cry came from the direction of the woman.Alice thought she might have felt pain because of the chains on her feet, and it seemed that the other party was not in any harm, so she, who was also a woman, couldn't help but walk forward a certain distance.

When she got close enough, suddenly the woman began to scream. Her scream was so familiar, as if they had heard it before.

No, not as if.But they had indeed heard of it, just when the Isabella II was preparing to sail away from the island...

—TBC—

2 Banshee

The woman imprisoned in the deepest part of the underwater labyrinth slowly turned around, and she opened her bloodless lips. However, what she issued was not a weak murmur, but a high-pitched scream that could pierce human eardrums.Alice was forced to listen for a while, and then she was surprised to find that the voice sounded unusually familiar.In fact, it was true. This was the second time she heard this sound.

And that first time naturally refers to the culprit who destroyed the Isabel's second maiden voyage: the "Movement of Death".

Speaking of which, Alice and her party learned the name "Death Movement" from the mouth of the madman who was dragged off the cabin.I don't know what the madman's expression will be when he hears that they have found the source of the curse.

Of course... the prerequisite for the lunatic to hear the news is that Alice and her party can escape from the underwater maze intact.

But this is difficult to do, after all, the name "Death Movement" is not called for nothing.

Everyone who heard the scream suddenly felt a pain from the inside out.

The source of the pain was unknown, but it actually existed in the bodies of Alice and the three of them.Alice half-knelt on the ground in pain. Her heart seemed to be pinched and ravaged by an invisible hand. She could even feel the squeezed blood flowing down the fingers of that hand.

She was just one step away from dying on the spot.

The pain lasted for a while, but luckily everyone got over it.Alice raised her head tremblingly and looked at the woman. She was still standing there, quietly looking at the people in front of her.

Then Alice saw her grinning widely. Although most of her face was hidden under her hair, from Alice's angle, she could still see the corners of her mouth that almost reached her cheeks.

A twisted smile, a chilling smile that seemed to take satisfaction in the suffering of others.

"Ah!" Alice instinctively felt fear.She hugged herself tremblingly, breathing hard to stop herself from shaking.

She understood what kind of existence the creature in front of her was, a "banshee", a malicious creature formed from the legendary female soul.

Vician and Caschia noticed something strange about Alice. Alice looked panicked. No matter whether they put their hands on her shoulders or not, she lowered her head and shivered as if she couldn't see.

Unfortunately, none of them were priests who were good at curing abnormal conditions, so they could only protect Alice behind them and wait for Alice to come out of her fear.

At this time, Vician and Caschia no longer hesitated. They drew their weapons and took defensive postures.

"I should have come here with a volley sword." Visian looked at the dagger lying in front of him and secretly complained.The attack and defense range of the dagger is very short, and it is extremely disadvantaged in long-range combat. He felt this sense of frustration when Thief's Wrist attacked Ander, although the use of magic is a way to make up for it...

"But I'm still a little depressed. Do you have anything on hand...!" While Visian was thinking to himself, the banshee took action again.

The banshee stopped screaming, and instead began to mutter something unknown. While she was speaking, everyone noticed a malicious gaze coming from under the hair that covered the banshee's face.

l The banshee looked at them blankly, the smile on her face disappeared, and the corners of her mouth turned down, looking very unhappy.Her throat was still mumbling indistinctly, and the more she murmured, the more distorted the expression on her face became.

l At the end, the Banshee's expression became completely ferocious. Not only did she open her mouth wide to reveal her incomplete teeth, she also stretched out her hands to pounce towards Alice.She moved forward for a certain distance at an extremely fast speed, with no resistance from the sea water at all, but she was forced to stop only half a meter away from Vician and Caschia.

The chains that bound the banshee's feet were tight, and the runes engraved on the surface of the chains showed their prototypes at this time. The bright gray runes shone in the not-so-bright room, looking extremely dazzling.

The banshee immediately reached out to the chains and shackles that blocked her movement. However, when her hands touched the surfaces of these two items, there would be a stream of green smoke accompanied by a burning sensation to torture her.

The Banshee struggled for a long time, but no matter what, she couldn't break through the confinement of the chain, so she was running around like crazy within the limit of what the chain could reach.

She probably wanted to use this to break the chain, although it was of no use...

Seeing this situation, Vician and Caschia looked at each other, and in tacit agreement, they retracted their weapons and began to lift Alice out of the room.

With the door blocking them, they could no longer see the banshee for the time being. It was unknown whether it was because of this, but Alice gradually regained her consciousness.

"Is she, is she missing? Is she dead?" Alice was still a little dazed and asked in a low voice.

Caschia shook his head and replied: "No, she is still there. But she won't be able to attack us for a while."

Alice blinked, and then her whole body relaxed because of Caschia's words. Her heartbeat returned to normal and her face gained some color.

"Now...what is that banshee doing?" Alice mustered up her courage and pretended to be calm and continued to ask about the current situation.

This time it was Vician who answered for her. He pointed to the door facing away from them and motioned for Alice to look inside.Alice hesitated and moved over. She leaned on the edge of the door and peeked in. What she saw was the scene where the banshee was constantly pulling on the chains on her feet, and was being burned to the point of letting go again and again.

After continuing to observe through the crack in the door for a while, Alice's anxiety suddenly dissipated. She breathed a long sigh of relief and leaned against the door limply.

"Ahem, we have to go in later...so you..." Wei Xi'an reminded Alice awkwardly, and Alice tensed up instantly.She smiled bitterly and said: "I'm fine, I just need to adapt to it for a while... Well, I can't adapt because she is really..."

Although the words were not completely finished, everyone knew what she was pointing at, and it was almost a tacit understanding.

Caschia patted Alice's head comfortingly. He still held the spear tightly in his hand, looking extremely reliable in this situation.

Wei Xi'an, who was beside him, was deep in thought. After two or three minutes, he continued to speak: "Actually, if we walk around the outside of the room, she can't hit us, right?"

—TBC—

Chapter 1 Panic

After Weisian thought for a while, he came up with a hypothesis. He hypothesized, "If we walk along the outer edge of the room, she won't be able to hit us anyway, right?"

"In this case, if we stand there and fight, won't we be able to kill her sooner or later?"

This is an extremely obvious fact, but almost no one realizes it on the spot.

Alice was stunned for a moment, then turned her head sharply and continued to look at the crack of the door.Behind the crack in the door, the banshee gave up the masochistic behavior of peeling off the shackles, and began to continue flying around the field in an attempt to break the chains.

The banshee flew around the room several times, but each circle was within the same range, and as Visian said, the outermost circle of the room was a safe area.

What encouraging news!

"Visian is right, the outermost area is indeed a safe zone!" Alice pulled Caschia excitedly, her eyes flashing with dazzling light.

She regained her energy and showed an impatient look, which made people marvel at her strong recovery power.

"Don't worry, although she can't hit us, her scream is still deadly. We must take corresponding measures, otherwise it will be like last time." Caschia helplessly held down the eager to try Alice and Vician reminded: "We can still hear the sound, unless we deafen our ears."

The fearful scream of the banshee is indeed a serious problem. None of the three Alices are hearing-impaired, and they all attach great importance to "hearing".

No one wants to become deaf because of a banshee. There should be other ways.After thinking about it, Alice finally came up with a method that sounded very idiotic: plug her ears with clothes.

Fortunately, Alice had a lot of daily necessities with her. She took out a few things from her pocket and spread them on the ground, including a handkerchief, a hand mirror found in the sunken ship, a thin hair tie and a small bottle. Essential oils of unknown use.

In the end, the only thing that came in handy was the handkerchief. Alice asked Vician to cut the handkerchief into long strips so that they could roll it into strips and stuff them into their ears.After plugging the ears, the sound coming from the outside becomes weak and dull. Although it cannot completely isolate the sound, it is basically enough.

I just don’t know what it would be like to encounter the fearful screams of a banshee.

"Are you ready?" Weisian gave up on civilized language communication and devoted himself to the most primitive way of human communication: gestures.

Alice didn't understand Visian's gesture immediately. She only understood it when Visian pressed her shoulders frantically and turned her towards the door.

"No problem, I'm ready!" Alice made an OK gesture.

Visian slumped his shoulders in vain, and was the first to squeeze through the crack of the half-open door.Everything that followed was still relatively smooth. Alice and her group clung to the wall, despicably launching one after another attacks outside the attack range of the banshee.

Alice was very happy in this battle. After experiencing the battle with the volley sword, she instantly transformed into a professional "bird hunter".No matter how fast the banshee drifts, her wind blade can accurately hit the banshee's body.

The banshee rushed toward Alice anxiously, but she was always stuck at the boundary line that was out of reach for her.

Perhaps because the current situation was too comfortable and she took it lightly, Alice accidentally tripped herself during a move. She fell into the arms of the banshee under Caschia's surprised eyes.

The banshee's arms were cold and smelled of rot mixed with fishy smell.Alice opened her eyes and saw the face of the banshee.

The distance was too close, even if there was hair blocking it, Alice directly came face to face with the half-rotted face of the banshee.A kind of heartfelt fear arose spontaneously. Her eyes flickered, and she seemed to see her face beginning to rot and deteriorate like the face of a banshee.

Starting from the small area on the forehead, and then all the way down along the eye socket, the skin and bones were gradually peeled off, revealing the disgusting substance underneath.Alice fell to the ground. She couldn't take her eyes away from the banshee's face, and she didn't even notice that the things in her arms fell to the ground.

The succubus seemed to be interested in Alice and leaned down. Her dry hands touched Alice's face, and then she suddenly paused.A ray of light shone into her eyes, could it be that one?

Is it the one she dreams of?

The Banshee reached out and built the hand mirror that Alice had dropped.She used her other hand to lift the hair from her face. As her hair was arranged bit by bit, her face was also revealed in the mirror bit by bit.

Her movements could be called graceful at first, especially when arranging the left half of her face, but when she lifted the hair on the right side, her movements became irritable.

"Ahhhhhh!" The banshee burst into a scream, her whole body was creaking, and she burst out with unprecedented magical power.

The chains that bound her feet held on for a while, but ultimately failed to pin them in place again.The succubus escaped from her restraints and viciously threw the mirror to the ground.The mirror was torn apart, and its fragments were floating around the banshee due to buoyancy. Seeing this scene, Vician and Caschia quickly reacted.

They quickly ran to Alice's side, trying to protect her.Alice was obviously regarded as the main target by the banshee. She flew over the heads of Vician and Caschia, and stretched out her hands with sharp nails to grab Alice.

As for Alice, she had not yet recovered from her fear, and was still staring blankly at the open space in front of her.

Visian was the one closest to the banshee. He took a step forward and intercepted the banshee's attack with his dagger.The strength of the Banshee was much greater than that of the Volley Sword. The two daggers vibrated under her claws and could be shot down at any time.

Not only that, Visian also discovered that the surface of his dagger seemed to be corroded, which should be a necrotic injury.

Knowing this, it is impossible to use physical attacks to entangle the banshee at close range, because their weapons will definitely defeat them first.

"Get away!" Visian shook out a scroll and unfolded it.A small monster emerged from the scroll.This monster disappeared in the second second after it appeared in the world. If it was a person who summoned this monster unconsciously, he would probably think that his summoning failed.

However, this is not the case. Vishian is not a rookie among summoners. He knows exactly what he is doing.

Chapter 1: Conspiracy

Visian knew exactly what he was doing. What came out of his scroll was not air, but a physical summoned object.It was a water sly. Their species usually blends into the water and only shows its prototype when performing entanglement attacks.

The method of summoning a water ghost is also quite simple. Just put a coin in the spring water of the underground maze, and an exclusive guardian of yours will be born in the spring water.

Of course, the premise is that the spring water has received blessings.

Unfortunately, Vician originally obtained this water monster because it was born from a cursed spring. It has a rather cruel character and will try to kill the first target it sees without any basis or reservation.And that target, from now on, is a banshee.

The water trick is immune to poison and corrosion, which is quite effective against banshees. As long as Visian can seize the time to throw the water trick back into the scroll before it attacks them.

According to the usual laws, the water trick will dissipate once it leaves the liquid it is bound to. This also applies to the water trick summoned by Visian.So Vishian hid another item in his summoning scroll: a half-filled bottle of cursed water.

If they were on land, opening the bottle would not cause much harm, but they were now at the bottom of the sea, surrounded by nothing but water.So when Vician opens the bottle, the water inside will mix with other seawater and eventually merge into a whole.

To put it simply, after opening the bottle, the room may be filled with polluted and dirty water.

However, if the bottle is not opened, Shuigui will eventually die, but if it is opened...

The result is obvious, sorry Shuigui, have a good trip.

Visian put the bottle back in his hand and switched from thief mode to summoner mode.While he used magic to build a small barrier, he also asked Caschia to take away Alice, who was in a state of panic again.

Alice was pulled away by Caschia without any reaction. Her eyes were staring blankly at a certain point in the void, and her lips kept twitching, as if she was muttering something.

While Caschia was settling down Alice, the battle between the water ghost and the banshee also officially started.The water trick that captured the target showed its prototype. Its flowing body stretched infinitely, wrapping around the banshee's body in circles.As an undead creature, the banshee cannot be restrained by ordinary substances, except for those objects containing magic.The chains and shackles at the beginning were considered one, and the water trick that was clinging to her now was also considered one.
