Chapter 416 Soul Eater Night [Part [-]]

".That's it. I'm going to find you a second-hand airship right now. But it's the fastest and the fastest. This private airship will not be able to reach Blue Flame Bay until the day after tomorrow. You can rest there for the next two days. But Ilya, be careful not to go out alone, Blue Flame Bay is still quite chaotic."

"Got it." Illya patted the sandbox, "It's dead, Dad."

She put away the sand box and turned to look at Ahao: "So where are we going to play now? Or are you going to stay in the hotel and study the arcana?"

"Hiss~ I don't know what's interesting here, let me take a look first." Ah Hao scratched his head, got up and picked up the "Blue Flame Bay Travel Guide" on the writing desk.

"Well, it said that you can taste the freshest sea animal sashimi at the most famous slaughterhouse market in Blue Flame Bay."

Ilya shook her head: "No, it's too dirty there. And the eyes of those crew members make me very uncomfortable."

"It just so happens that it also recommends going there in the early morning, and it's not suitable to go now. Next, the water cemetery in the northwest corner of Blue Flame Bay is quite famous. The dead in Blue Flame Bay are popularly returned to the sea. The water cemetery in the port area is floating Countless buoys, each with a corpse or coffin of the dead suspended. The buoys of the rich are often beautifully decorated, inlaid with gold and silver, which is really beautiful."

"Ah? Isn't this another form of tombstone?" Ilya quickly shook her neck, "I don't want to see it, I don't want to see it."

"Choose a better place! I want a cleaner, more beautiful place!"

"Okay, okay." Ahao speeded up, flipping through the travel guide with his fingers, flipping through the thin booklet page by page.

"Cabin Bar, it seems too early to drink now. Blue Flame Firearms Shop, we don't need this kind of thing, right? Sea Hunting Trap House, skip, skip"

"I found it!" Ahao handed the booklet in his hand to Ilya, "Baru Temple, a strange existence that the locals of Blue Flame Bay believe in. The temple itself is also very distinctive. Do you want to go and see it? "

"The temple." Illya took the booklet, and when she saw the picture of the temple's exterior, her eyes lit up immediately.

The temple hangs high above the port. It is made of strangely colored stones. These small grains of stone interlock with each other in a special way, drawing gorgeous and wonderful murals on the wall.

The artistic aesthetic cultivated in expensive works of art made Ilya immediately determine that this is a "work" of extremely high value.

"Just go here, where is it, is it far?"

"It's not very far from here, just cross a bridge."

As soon as Ilya patted the sheets, she immediately turned over and said, "Let's go!"

Above the main port area of ​​Blue Flame Bay, there is a thick stone bridge embedded between the cliffs on both sides.This stone bridge connects the dock area of ​​Blue Flame Bay and the two ends of the temple area.

Yi Liya leaned on the outer bridge railing and looked at the blue flame sea in front of her: "Actually, I have heard another rumor about the name of the blue flame sea."

"What is it?" Ahao also walked to Ilya's side.

It is cloudy today, and the sun's gleam shines through the clouds, shining on the sparkling sea, reflecting a color between blue and green.Fishing boats, big or small, are flapping their dilapidated brown sails, looking for fish schools in the blue sea of ​​flames.

"It is said that when the wind blows in Blue Flame Bay, the waves on the sea surface are like tiny blue flame waves, hence the name Blue Flame Bay."

Ah Hao suddenly felt emotional: "In fact, Blue Flame Bay is quite beautiful, and the sea water here is much warmer than that of Zhuo De."

"If it weren't for the fact that the seabed is too deep and the waters near the port are too dirty, there is definitely a future for developing tourism."

Ilya left the railing and continued to walk forward: "It would be great if there is a clean sea in Blue Flame Bay. I want to go swimming in the sea."

"Do you remember? The last time we went to Armenica with Shirley and Wende, it was so comfortable to play in the water."

"Of course I remember"

While chatting, the two came to the Baru Temple without knowing it.

When he was close, Ahao could feel the shock of these temple groups even more.

The temples are situated on the crest of a low cliff, each roughly resembling a cylindrical stone house.These stone house temples use colorful mosaic stone bricks to spell out a strange "mural".

Ah Hao dragged Ilya to adjust the angle, and finally understood the mural.

"It's actually a big octopus?"

Ilya tilted her head and looked at the mural: "Where is it? Why can't I see it?"

"You have to connect them." Ahao grabbed Illya's hand and connected the temples together. "The paintings on these temples are tentacles. The painting on the largest temple seems to be It's the head of an octopus. Those reddish stained glass windows are actually its eyes."

"Oh." Illya was not in the mood to look at the temple at all, her attention was all on her hands.

At this moment, an abrupt voice appeared behind them: "That's Mother Snake, you can also call her Naga Capolos. But please note, she is not an octopus, but an ancient dragon in the sea of ​​blue flames." surviving sea monsters."

Ah Hao turned around and found a strange man dressed as a priest standing behind the two of them.There are many thick hemp ropes wrapped around his robe. These rough and curly hemp ropes are dyed pale blue, and they sway around as he walks. At first glance, they look like twisted tentacles.

"You believe in sea monsters?"

"That's right." The priest nodded, "This is not something to be ashamed of. Naga Kaporos is the strongest sea beast in this sea area. She and her offspring are willing to protect all travelers who are lost at sea."

"Even the most ignorant fishermen and sailors know how much safety they can bring to their dangerous voyages if they have more faith in the Snake Mother in this dangerous sea of ​​blue flames."

"All in all, I'm very glad that you are willing to come to the Baru Temple at this time. With your help, tonight's Soul Eater Night may be easier."

"I'm Cliff the Snake Caller, may I ask who you two are?"

"Wait a minute." Illya stretched out her palm in confusion, interrupting Clive. "Who said I want to help you? We just followed the guidebook to visit this temple."

An embarrassed expression immediately appeared on Cliff's face.He turned his head and found the target he was going to greet on the other side.

"Sorry, I saw the surging energy fluctuations on the two of them, and mistakenly thought that the two were extraordinary beings who were invited to the Baru Temple. I was rude."

Ahao waved his hand: "We are indeed arcane masters, but we are only passing through here, and have never heard of any invitations. I am a little curious, what is the Soul Eater Night you mentioned just now?"

Ah Hao faintly felt that there were many secrets hidden behind this special word.Reminiscent of the ship boss at the ocean port refusing to leave the ship, his curiosity was suddenly aroused.

Cliff rolled his eyes, and his face returned to calm again: "The soul-devouring fog is a terrible disaster that the snake mother has seen. It has swept across the entire Blue Flame Sea, bringing a huge blow to the creatures in this sea. Disaster. Tonight, it will reach Blue Flame Bay, so we call it Soul Eater Night."

"Whether you participate or not, Soul Devouring Night will come as promised. The Baru Temple is calling a group of people with lofty ideals to work together to resist the Soul Devouring Fog."

He stretched out his palm and pointed to the temple on the side: "Our priest is explaining the matter of Soul Devouring Fog there, if you don't mind, you can go there and listen."

"After listening, you can decide whether to stay or not. The Baru Temple will not obstruct you."

After Cliff finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the man and woman behind them.

Ah Hao looked at Ilya: "How about it, do you want to listen?"

"Listen." Ilya turned around and glanced at the distant sky worriedly, "I don't think he seems to be talking nonsense."

Ahao followed Ilya's line of sight and saw the sky in the distance.In the extreme distance of the blue flame sea, the sky was already pitch black.The sky is also inexplicably darker now than before.

The group of Feathered Serpents that suddenly appeared on the airship, the ocean port that stopped going to sea, and the local temple where extraordinary people gathered.Everything made Ah Hao feel a little bit about to come.

"Let's go, then, and see what they can say."

Ahao took Ilya's hand and walked towards the main temple not far away where the head of a sea monster was engraved.

When he really walked into the temple area, he found that there were quite a lot of people here.In the open square on the side of the building, a large number of people have gathered at this time.

In addition to the temple priests wearing robes, more people were armed with long guns and short cannons, and looked like fierce locals in Lanyan Bay.There are also a few who are dressed in exquisite and delicate clothes, which look very Agadi style.

The two avoided the crowd and walked directly into the main temple.

There are many people here, but it is much quieter than the square.The room is relatively dark, only the bright candles burning on the altar.

After waiting for a while, someone finally stepped onto the altar.

It was a burly woman with dark green tattoos engraved on her strong arms.

As soon as she stepped onto the stage, there was a rustling sound from the audience.
"The real one." "The real one is here."

She picked up a statue made of gold and slammed it heavily on the altar: "I am the true Baru, Rao. Next, Naga Kaporos will tell everyone what she has seen and heard."

She patted the god statue on the altar, and then Ah Hao looked over.It was a solid gold statue in the shape of a monster's head, its tusk-strewn mouth gaping open and hollow inside.

Suddenly, a faint green light shone in the golden statue's pupils.A lighter mist escaped from its open mouth.

"Hey." There was a sound of exclamation from the audience, and Ilya also grabbed Ahao's arm nervously.Ah Hao held her hand backhand, and patted her reassuringly.

Changes at the altar are still happening.The light green mist gradually became thicker, and a dynamic picture appeared above the golden statue.

Ah Hao could tell that what appeared in the picture was a four-masted sailing ship, and it was considered a medium-to-large ship on Blue Flame Bay.

The ship was sailing well, but at some point, the light green "water" below it suddenly became pitch black.

Luo Qi's powerful female voice sounded at this moment: "Naga Kaporos noticed that the black mist that suddenly appeared on Blue Flame Bay rose and fell like a tide. But now, it takes more time to rise. The longer it is, the falling time is getting shorter and shorter. Until tonight, it will not fall and come across the ocean.”

The fog protruding from the golden statue began to surge, and the picture moved forward, and the scene on the boat appeared more clearly in front of everyone.

The ignorant crew members are struggling to pull the rope.However, at this moment, a large amount of wriggling black mist gushed out from the ocean behind him.The black mist waited for an opportunity behind him, like a ghost that was about to choose someone to devour.

Everyone held their breath and waited for Luo Yi's narration: "Tonight, all the undead swallowed by the Blue Flame Bay will come with the black mist. They are eager for fresh flesh and blood, looking for innocent souls, and they are ready to kill gone."

Suddenly, a broken iron knife pierced the crew's chest.

In the miserable green picture, Ah Hao couldn't recognize the existence of bleeding.He could only see the crew member staring at his chest in astonishment, and then looking behind him in disbelief.

A skeleton frame wrapped in black mist, with its exposed upper and lower gums colliding, seemed to laugh silently.

The iron knife was withdrawn, and the crew immediately collapsed limply.Black Mist Skeleton ran away excitedly to slaughter the rest of the crew.However, the green picture still focuses on the dead crew member.

Luo Qi spoke at the right time: "The living who died in the black mist will grow this black mist. And the souls of the dead will be cursed forever and imprisoned in this mysterious black mist."

The pupils of the crew members who were supposed to die suddenly overflowed with a bright green ghostly light.Like a marionette, he stood up twisted.He reached out and pulled out a broken steel sword from the black mist, and numbly walked towards the other crew members.

The exclamations and whispers from the audience were almost uncontrollable.

Illya also turned her head and said softly: "The black mist manipulates the souls of the dead, and those killed by the black mist will be manipulated by it. If the black mist invades Blue Flame Bay, it will trigger a chain reaction!"

"Kill one, and the dead will kill another. If no one stops, everyone will die in an instant!"

"It's really scary." Ahao nodded with a serious face, "But it seems that this kind of black mist is more lethal to mortals. The ability to deal with extraordinary people should be limited."

Luo Qi kicked the idol, and the green light in the pupils of the idol immediately dissipated.The picture composed of green mist also disappeared.

She explained: "Originally, we, the Baru Sect, planned to summon the holy beasts of Naga Kaporos to protect the Blue Flame Bay. Unfortunately, the dirty sea water and the protective formation of the Blue Flame Bay made the holy beasts refuse to come."

"So everyone can only rely on their own strength to resist tonight's Soul Eater. Naga Kaporos told me that this black mist will subside as the sun rises. Wait for it to gather strength again and cross the ocean , I don’t know when it will be. Therefore, all you need to spend is this night, which is a rare piece of good news.”

Luo Qi clapped her hands, and the whole temple was lit up immediately, and the burning candles illuminated everyone's uneasy expressions.

"I will sit and guard the Baru Temple, which will be the safest place in the city. As long as you are willing to guard the city with the temple, the temple is willing to provide shelter for your relatives and family members."

"There is still some time before nightfall, but not much. I hope everyone can make a decision early."
