Sir Chen, your wife is missing!

Playing the role of crew members provides them with an opportunity to move around the ship openly and avoid Sarkaz when they meet them. After a round of exploration, it is found that the number of crew members is about 30, and the number of Sarkaz is even smaller, only 10.

The safest way is to find the captain of the ship, who must know more information than the average passing crew. Victorians should not keep secrets from their compatriots unless the captain's heart is on the side of the Sarkaz.

The captain's room is in the superstructure above the upper deck. The functional structure above the upper deck is clear at a glance, and you won't get lost without a map. Turning a dim corner, the road ahead is blocked by a dark blue glowing object.

A dark blue sticky web sticks to the floor. It has life and keeps crawling and extending forward, emitting the salty smell of sea water.

Feng Qingyu knew what it was.

The Abyss from Iberia. Once you touch it, you will gradually be eroded and assimilated by it, becoming a member of the large group, unable to return to the normal world. Even medical operators are helpless to treat the serious mental damage.

"Get out of the way!"

She ran wildly down the corridor, pulling the reed.

36. Victoria's Fool

"Why is there a dark mark on this ship?"

Wei Cao wanted to burn the strange object that was following him with fire, but he was worried that it would trigger the fire alarm on the ship. The fire alarm would attract everyone on the ship, and then the Sarkaz would know that there was a magician on the ship.

The worst outcome is that Abrana finds out that her sister and distant relatives caused a big fuss on the partner's supply ship, and then are caught and beaten up by people like Mandela (sad).

The true leader of Shen Chi is like an elder sister who indulges her younger sister's willfulness. She turns a blind eye to minor incidents, but has to take tough measures when the bottom line is crossed, including but not limited to some violent acts.

This is why Wei Cao was so restrained along the way. She was afraid, afraid of the person who looked exactly like her.

"Victoria is very close to Iberia, right? The Abyss comes from the bottom of Iberia. They are a kind of ichthyophthirius, or a biological form of ichthyophthirius. Although their appearance is different from those monsters, their essence is the same, which is a kind of contact between the ocean and the land. This ship unfortunately became the object of the ocean's contact, so we encountered these crawling Abyss."

"Ms. Kuroba is indeed a celebrity in Rhodes Island. She even knows such obscure knowledge."

"I'm not a celebrity. It's Kal'tsit and I who mate, ahem... the knowledge mentioned during the conversation. I'm just the carrier of knowledge."

Feng Qingyu's knowledge of Iberia only stayed in the stereotype - a country of decay, death, and destruction by the Great Silence. The ichthyophthirius is a creature on the seabed that is harmful to the land. She didn't know any more details. She was not an Iberian, and she had an instinctive awe and fear of the endless deep sea, and she would never touch it.

It happened that one day Kal'tsit was reading an Iberian biological illustration book. During the mating process, she was flipping through the illustration book while enjoying the pleasure of mating, and told her about the nature and characteristics of Minghen in a slightly charming voice.

The white and smooth back swayed in front of her eyes, making her dizzy. It wasn't that she didn't listen to the old woman's words. She remembered the knowledge about Minghen very well. That was what Kal'tsit had taught her when she reached the highest point. She couldn't help but be impressed.

The dark marks spread at an astonishingly fast speed, and soon covered the entire corridor.

Closing the door of the corridor cannot completely stop their spread, and the delay time is less than ten minutes. Let the boat return to the shore, and the sea marks will crawl from the dock to the entire Londinium. At that time, Londinium will be Hai Si's paradise, referred to as "The Paradise of Sea Marks".

Feng Qingyu was already mentally damaged when he thought of those glowing, disgusting, sticky creatures on every piece of floor.

With internal and external troubles and threats from the seabed, Victoria might disappear from the map.

After wandering around on the ship for a while, they found an area that had not been invaded by the Dark Marks, where they rested and thought about countermeasures. They didn't have much time left, so the investigation of the transportation route had to be put on hold. They had to leave the ship full of Dark Marks alive, but they also couldn't let the Dark Marks crawl onto the coast of Victoria.

"The only option is to let this ship sink in the middle of the sea."

"We don't have a life raft."

Weicao agreed with her idea, but her execution was not very high.

Without a life raft, they would still die at sea. With Drake's physical fitness, it was obviously unrealistic to want to conquer this ocean. There were many strange things on the seabed, and it would be bad if he was assimilated by them.

Feng Qingyu had no desire to return to the group, not at all. Living on land and mating with the girls from Rhode Island every week was the ideal life.

Soaked in the cold seabed, turned into a monster without temperature, and finally turned into food to feed a large group of people... It's like a nightmare.

"The life raft is a problem. Emmm... I want to contact the Rhodes Island office in Peninsula County and ask the operators there if they can send out a flying machine. At this point, we can't care too much. The flying machine can take away dozens of people at a time, and the crew can go with them, unless they want to become sea heirs."

"Then please."

Weicao had no means to contact the Rhodes Island office. The communicator distributed by Rhodes Island was placed in a room in Red Ridge Town, and only Feng Qingyu carried it with her. She did not remember all the communication bands of the office, so it was most appropriate for her to contact the office.

If you can't receive a signal on the lower deck, you must move to the upper deck immediately to try to receive it. A male scream was heard from the room in front, and a flickering blue fluorescence could be vaguely seen through the half-open door - the same fluorescence as on Minghen.

Through the crack in the door, they saw that something strange had happened to the crew members inside.

The human part quickly became keloid, the skin turned into a smooth grayish-white epidermis, and then scales grew. The shape of the limbs became strange, the arms stretched out, a layer of membrane grew between the fingers and toes, and the palms became wide and webbed.

The skin on the back was pierced by spikes growing from the bottom, and there were some strange, swinging strips that looked like tentacles, which looked a bit disgusting.

Finally, it was the head. The human appearance was completely lost in the mutation. The face protruded forward and turned into a sea beast's beak. The tongue stretched out, and the two rows of teeth were densely packed like a chain saw.

The people in the room stood in the abyss and turned into monsters that were almost three meters tall.

The monsters seemed to sense that they were being watched and rushed to the door. Feng Qingyu pulled Wei Cao and turned to another corridor, barely avoiding the sight of the Haisihua crew.

Being chased by those things all over the ship is no joke, you might turn into a monster like them. Being assimilated by the sea gene is a terrible thing, the assimilated person's mind will be constantly filled with indescribable crazy thoughts, and eventually go to the deep sea and perish.

She learns something every time she mates with Kal'tsit, and she enjoys sharing Terra's experiences while enjoying her tail.

Feng Qingyu remembered that high temperature could temporarily delay the growth of Minghen, and flames could burn Minghen. Although doing so could not fundamentally solve the problems facing the ship, it could at least ensure that he would not be fused and assimilated by Haisi's genes.

They are like zombie viruses, and the effects once encountered are irreversible.

"Continuing to retreat is not a solution. Can you use a spell that does not produce fire and smoke but only increases the temperature?" she asked.

"I see."

Wei Cao carefully controlled his magic to heat the floor beneath his feet. The spreading abyss was like a squid placed on an iron plate, making the unique "sizzling" sound of being fried in oil.

The concentrated, salty smell that filled the narrow corridor was sickening, not unlike the smell of rotting fish at the height of summer.

It’s too late for both of them to regret now.

37. Minghen Paradise

No one knows when the ship was touched by the "hand" from the depths of the ocean, leaving behind these mottled glowing marks, which are spreading at an almost crazy speed.

Although they only spread on the ground and will not crawl onto the walls and ceiling, no one has the ability to crawl around on the ceiling and walls like Spider-Man without touching the ground with their feet.

It is impossible for people not to keep their feet on the ground. Using magic to keep the body suspended consumes a lot of energy. Theoretically, the idea of ​​floating until support arrives is unrealistic. Either stay on the ship and be assimilated into the sea with the crew and return to the main group, or quickly find a way to leave.

When they ran to the first floor of the lower deck, in the central hall, they saw a bloody corpse pierced by crossbows and swords. The shape of the sea turtle was beyond the cognition of normal people, with short upper limbs, head and body fused together, like a fish body, covered with gray-blue scales, lower limbs turned into a fish tail, and upper limbs had nothing in common with human hands, completely turned into webbed objects with membranes.

Hai Si's eyes were wide open, "watching" everyone who looked at him with unwilling eyes, and his golden eyes were no longer clear, and turbid flocs settled at the bottom like two rotten eggs. The smell of blood and sea water was still so disgusting.

The dead monsters lay on a dark patch.

The dark scar was like a carpet supporting Hai Si's corpse. Looking more closely, the dark scar was extending from the wound on the monster's body. The monster's blood and body became nutrients for the dark scar, and more terrifying fish were born from the dark scar. Strange creatures were running around in the hall, wriggling, and crawling...

This place has become Minghen’s paradise and Haisi’s heaven.

The scene before them shocked Feng Qingyu and Wei Cao greatly. They had never been so close to Iberia in their lives. Even though that decayed country was far away and it took a long time to get there by ship, and the sea breeze there could not reach Victoria's coast, the things on the ship were undoubtedly part of Iberia.

The passenger ship is preparing to recreate a small-scale "Great Silence". Some of the crew members and Sarkaz on board have become victims of the Great Silence.

Next to the body of the terrifying fish were several incomplete corpses that had been gnawed away. They had parts of both humans and sea creatures, and the iconic black horns of the Sarkaz had not yet been assimilated by those genes.

“It’s simply… an escape game from hell.”

Feng Qingyu took a few photos with her mobile phone as a souvenir, and she would paste them in her "Travels in Terra" when she returned. In order to bring the photos back alive, she had to be 114514 alert and face this inexplicable crisis with Weicao.

Now there is a good thing, they can finally use fire spells to destroy Minghen without burning the ship.

"Come on, Miss Reed, let's burn these damn things."

"learn."

It is really a pleasant thing to be able to use spells without any worries. The ship is in chaos. That team of Sarkaz may have been wiped out. Even if there are survivors, they have no time to chase the invaders. They will only think about leaving this damn place as soon as possible and fly away.

At a critical moment, no orders or tasks are worth mentioning. Even if Tracys is standing here, the Sarkaz will not voluntarily want to stay and die.

You only have one life, and if you die in a dungeon, you can start over countless times.

Heat spread from Wei Cao's palm, and she took out the folded gun and used it, aiming it in the direction of the Terror Fish and Ming Hen. The Terror Fish let out a long and sharp scream, and those closest to the flames turned into ashes on the spot. Some of them were not burned to death and quickly fled to a safe area outside the range of the flames.

The knowledge that fire can suppress Abyss and Terrorfish also came from Kal'tsit. When Kal'tsit went to Iberia for field research, she often went to the seaside ruins full of Abyss, and each time she asked mon3tr to spray fire to clear the obstacles for her.

Minghen dare not approach anything with heat. Some Iberians who are not demented and live by the sea will burn Minghen with fire to drive away the terrifying fish.

The scientific knowledge that Kal'tsit unconsciously learned is very useful now. When her life was hanging by a thread, she had no time to open her mobile phone to search Yidu Encyclopedia for ways to deal with the terrifying fish.

Next time when I mate with Kal'tsit, I can no longer complain that her babble of knowledge is boring, because I don't know when she can save my life.

Feng Qingyu imitated Wei Cao's posture and chanted spells, letting the magic flow through her body and finally leaking out from her fingertips into flames. To be as proficient as her requires long-term learning, but now there is no time, so rough imitation can still help a little.

The two Drakes worked together to clear a path with fire, and the air was filled with the peculiar smell left by the burning of the Terrorfish and Minghen. The roar of the Terrorfish drowned out the sound of the waves hitting the hull of the ship, and the sharp tone put a lot of unnecessary pressure on the eardrums.

The indescribable screams seemed to be the mumbling of the Old Ones from the ancient city under the sea, and anyone who heard them would fall into madness. The weak-willed unfortunate ones collapsed and lost their will.

They used their strong willpower to resist the screams of the terrifying fish, left the messy hall, and ran to the upper deck.

Running down is the stupidest way. When the abyss crawls all over the lower layer, the people hiding in the lower layer will be the first to become nutrients. If the situation is even worse, the boat will lose balance due to damage, and the people at the bottom of the boat will be the first to suffer.

It is common sense that people will run to the highest place, which is the upper deck.

Many places on the lower deck were invaded by terrifying fish and sea snakes, which multiplied at an unimaginable speed. Without the "little helpers" produced by Agor and their supporting components, they could not quickly and effectively clean up the traces of the sea, and there was no way to improve the current situation of the terrifying fish constantly emerging.

"Is there a signal?"

"not yet……"

Wei Cao's breathing became more and more rapid after running several times. Using spells and moving both consumed physical strength, and she and Feng Qingyu gradually felt tired and a little powerless.

The fishes were not very aggressive, but there were too many of them. It would take a lot of energy to kill them again and again, and they would eventually collapse due to exhaustion. Later, they gave up burning, set a fire under the deck to block Minghen and the fishes, and rushed to the stairs at the fastest speed to the upper deck.

The situation on the upper deck was not optimistic either, with blood flowing everywhere. The crew members who had not yet transformed into sea creatures and the Sarkaz were hacking and killing their sea creature companions, their eyes and expressions becoming more and more like those of madmen.

The bright red, boiling blood spilled and was absorbed by the crawling abyss. The abyss that absorbed the human blood was brighter than before, and its area expanded rapidly, eroding two-thirds of the entire deck.

The most uncomfortable thing was that there was no signal on the upper deck, and the signal receiving equipment I was wearing seemed to have been destroyed by the terrifying fish.

38. Decathlon

Feng Qingyu had completely forgotten why he and Wei Cao came to this damn ship. How hard it was to come here, how much harder it would be to escape.

If anyone is to blame, blame the crew members or the Sarkaz who had no common sense and killed the monster that would create a dark mark after death, causing the entire ship to become a nest of the sea.

It doesn't matter who did this stupid thing. If no one did it, someone else would have done it. Human beings' fear of the unknown is greater than anything else. When they see the ugly and weird-looking fish, they just want to kill it instead of running away.

After trying to connect several times on the deck, the communication equipment was unable to match the band of the Rhodes Island office. Only an endless rustling sound echoed in the equipment.

It was a cloudy night, with fog rising from the sea, and the outlines of the mountains and cities were not clearly visible. There was no lighthouse to guide the ship, and the freighter had unknowingly deviated from its original route and was heading in an unknown direction.

If you continue driving like this, you will eventually enter a sea area with a triangular outline. It is surrounded by Victoria, Xiosta and Iberia, and is called the Death Triangle of Terra, which has many similarities with the Bermuda Triangle.

The closer to the Iberian Sea, the stronger the winds and waves on the sea surface, the faster the sea water flows, and there are many reefs under the sea surface. If you are not careful, you will run aground on the reefs, causing the ship to be damaged and sink. It is known as the "ship cemetery" by sailors.

The navigation system includes a map of this sea area. The freighter is following the ocean current and rushing towards the ship cemetery at a faster speed, like a wild horse running wild. Feng Qingyu really wants to slow it down, but he doesn't want the sea to erode the land.

If the freighter can escape before it reaches the Death Triangle and leave in a lifeboat or aircraft, it would not be a problem if the ship's tail is sucked into the whirlpool of the ocean.

There is still some time, as long as she can think of another way...

This plan was very risky. Weicao was terrified when she heard it, and the muscles of her tail trembled along with her scalp. She had no right to blame Feng Qingyu for being too risky. It was she who proposed to follow the Sarkaz and find the supply route, and it was also she who suggested to go on board to find out.

She is the culprit, a disaster star who only brings disaster to those around her.

"I'm sorry, Miss Kuroba. It's all my fault for not thinking carefully and getting you into trouble. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have boarded this ship and encountered such a serious mishap."

The fire of hope that had just been roused in Wei Cao was extinguished by the sudden inrush of the huge wave. The ship that had been invaded by Minghen became an isolated island on the sea made of steel, and the fate of this isolated island was destined to be destruction.

They didn't want to accept the ending of destruction and struggled hard on the isolated island.

Feng Qingyu was also very anxious. The more anxious she was, the more she couldn't think of a solution. She paced back and forth on the deck, remembering that there should be a vehicle warehouse under the freighter's stern. Several crew members had just hurriedly fled to the stern, and the lifeboats and aircraft should be stored there.

Lifeboats and aircraft are facilities that every large ship must be equipped with. If people on the ship die or become sea victims, there will be more than enough lifeboats and aircraft.

The concept of driving a vehicle is different from that of riding a bicycle or a scooter. The operating system and various dials of the vehicle are more complicated than those of a car, and you can't just ride it and move it.

Weicao knows how to drive a car, but he has never learned how to drive an aircraft or other strange vehicles, and he does not have a license.

There is a huge bright red "Danger" character on both of their heads.

"We will follow those people to find the vehicle. We don't have enough time. We can't wait for Rhodes Island's support. Once this ship enters the Triangle of Death, we may not even be able to start the vehicle. There is a strange magnetic field in that sea area. The media reported that aircraft and flights disappeared collectively, but there is still no news of them being found. Either disappearing or crashing, neither is good."

"Okay... Now it's my turn to listen to you."

The team leader changed from Weicao to Feng Qingyu, and Weicao retreated to the second line and followed her obediently.

The vehicle warehouse was the last hope, and it was also the only place on the ship that had not been invaded by the Abyssal Marks and the Terror Fish. The reeds released a burst of heat, using magic to construct a wall of fire that could continue to burn, separating the entrance to the vehicle warehouse from the deck.

This wall of fire could last for another ten minutes. When the flames were completely extinguished, they would no longer be able to stop the terrifying fish and Minghen from rushing towards the warehouse. Those strange creatures were blocked outside by the orange-red barrier. This scene was very similar to a scene in "X Mountain Journey", except that in the movie, the creatures were blocked by zombies.

The horror of the terrifying fish is comparable to that of zombies, and people who are bitten will become the same kind of zombies. This is now a Terra version of the zombie movie, or the Haisi movie.

The two men rushed into the passage, closed the iron door which was more than ten centimeters thick, and locked it.
