The Glory of Noxus.

Chapter 319 Ghost Bay Soul Lock Warden

Ghost Bay.

This is the most dangerous bay in Bilgewater, known for its mystery and danger of death.

Rumor has it that it is a demon lair in the ocean, swallowing up countless passing ships and creatures.

The terrain of Ghost Bay is complex, with numerous reefs and shoals. It seems to be a natural trap set by the Watcher's Sea.

Different marine debris floated on the dirty sea surface, including torn canvas, rusty anchors, and rotten wood.

These countless amounts of garbage not only pollute the sea water, but also become the nest of all kinds of sea beasts.

They lurk in the water, waiting for the next batch of ruthless pirates and reckless sailors who don't heed their captain's warnings.

And this directly leads to the fact that few sea hunters come to Ghost Bay.

Under the dark night.

There are numerous reefs hidden under the sea, and any piece of them can break through the hull of the cabin.

"This is this"

He has been dealing with this sea area his whole life and knows that he must not fish in the ghostly bay at night.

Kadak's expression was solemn, and his narrow eyes were always paying attention to the surrounding situation.

Kadak is well aware of these things and carefully avoids floating ocean debris.

A few inches away from the water, he saw a pale face, with a lifeless cold light beating brightly.

They basically dare not appear near the pier during the day, for fear of damaging the fish in the pond and leaving corpses on the streets, so they can only choose to hunt at night.

The excitement of the Swift Crab Liquor made his body warm, and his head felt much clearer under the cold sea breeze.

The wine flowing from the corner of his mouth stained his clothes.

"I don't want much. Please help this poor fisherman and give him a ration from your barn."

"Great Nagakapoulos, bless your followers."

But for the sake of his family's life, he had to come here to hunt sea beasts.

It was lowering its red eyes and looking at Kadak, with black mist seeping from the white fluff in front of it.

Kadak quickly struggled to his feet and looked at the warning buoy behind him.

Wow! Wow!
The sound of sturdy oars lapping against the sea surface echoed in this area.

After Kadak finished praying, he opened his narrow eyes.

Finally, Kadak closed his eyes, bent down at the side of the ship, and dipped his hands into the greasy seawater.

I don’t know when a strange dark gray bird appeared on top of the bird carcass.

In the blink of an eye.

Immediately afterwards, he took out several maggots dug out from the eye sockets of a dead man as he did last night.

The seabed is covered with wreckage of shipwrecked ships, and the souls of the drowned have been waiting alone at the bottom for the new dead.

Kadak began to pray, asking the Bearded Lady to grant him some good luck.

"what!"

Kadak screamed, his body suddenly bounced up, and he fell on his back into the boat, causing the hull to shake.

"Please watch over me and protect me. If I die in your arms, let me be buried with the rest of the dead."

The fog that filled Haunted Bay became thicker, and the lights of Bilgewater in the distance suddenly disappeared.

The seemingly calm water is just an illusion.

With his unruly fingers shaking, he put the bait into the hook, and then hung the fishing line on the side of the ship.

The reason for all this is that the bloody turmoil at the slaughterhouse has made the nearby sea hunters fearful.

The sea breeze blows through the ghost bay, making bursts of shrill sounds, like the whispers of dead souls, attracting nearby ships.

Maybe there is some worry.

Kadak drank another big mouthful of wine for himself, wiped his dirty beard, and poured a small amount into the sea outside the ship's side as a tribute to the great bearded lady.

Kadak paddled the boat hard, leaving little ripples on the sea.

Kadak looked confused at first, and then his pupils narrowed, and a look of panic climbed onto his pale face.

He rowed past the warning buoys hung with bird carcasses, and did not stop until he came to a piece of sea where he had good luck last night.

Occasionally, relics scattered after the sinking of the Abyss can be found. (The Abyss was Planck's former ship, which sank to the bottom of the sea when he was deposed.)
Kadak drank the last of the crab liquor, reached out and picked up the two oars and put them in the bilge.

The nearby sea hunters always envy Kadak's nose, saying that he can smell out where there are schools of fish competing for food.

What replaced it was a thick fog as dark as ink rolling in from the sea.

Gulu! Gulu!
Kadak took out the crab liquor he bought at dusk and poured it into his mouth.

The fishing lines on the side of the boat were tightened one by one, and thin threads of mist rose out of the water and circled around the fishing boat.

Because no one knows whether the garbage is real garbage or whether it is pushed by sea monsters below.

Styx Watcher!
He had seen these monsters on the murals in the ruined temple. They were death creatures in ancient myths.

There are still related contents left around the murals at that time.

[When the sun sinks below the horizon, the terrifying things here will wake up and begin to watch, waiting for prey to take the bait. ]
Kadak raised the oar in great panic, plunged it into the sea water, and started rowing hard.

Behind the Styx Watcher, black mist is billowing
"The damn soul-eating night is coming!"

Kadak felt the biting cold coming, and his arms with bulging muscles gradually became weak.

But he didn't dare to hold back at all, and still used all his strength.

"The Great Bearded Lady Nagakapoulos, Mother of the Abyss"

Kadak prayed quietly, a sob in his voice.

"Please take me home, please, I sincerely pray"

He no longer cares why Soul Erosion Night came early.

His only thought was to escape from Haunted Cove and return to Bilgewater.

The oars beat a powerful rhythm on the sea, stirring up layers of waves and pushing the wooden boat forward quickly. Kadak whispered a prayer while driving the wooden boat, trying to leave the area monitored by the Styx Watcher.

However, the Styx Monitor Owl's red eyes were still looking at him, as if he had chosen his prey.

The red eyes flashed with coldness and cruelty, as if foreshadowing the coming danger.

Kadak's heart moved, and from the corner of his eye he saw the black mist sweeping behind him.

As soon as it came into contact with his body, the blood vessels under the skin quickly became necrotic, showing black lines.

Then the cold breath like a tomb crept up his back quietly.

Suddenly!
Kadak's prayers ceased.

A pair of hooks with chains cut through the black fog and pierced his chest. The eye-catching blood on the hook tips formed a slow flowing stream.

The third hook pierced his stomach, and then the fourth one came out of Kadak's neck.

The fifth and sixth ones dug into his hands, pulled him down forcefully, and nailed him to the blood-red cabin.

The severe pain made Kadak howl, and he wanted to pull out a handful of hooks with both hands and break free.

But there was a burning pain from the gouged joints, as if an evil spirit eager for revenge was tasting his suffering.

Deep in the black mist that Kadak could not see, a tall dark green shadow slowly emerged.

The body exudes the purest malice in the world, and the horned head is surrounded by emerald green flames.

The whole body was wrapped in an ancient black cassock, and the rusty keys around his waist scratched the edges.

It held a corpse-inducing lantern in its hand, which was swinging along with the chain.

From time to time, mournful moans would come from the lantern, as if it contained endless evil desires.

A small door opened on the lantern, and Kadak felt the soul in his warm body stir.

In the bottomless halo, the tortured undead almost went crazy in the endless purgatory, letting out heart-rending screams.

Kadak struggled to hold on to his soul, but his life came to an abrupt end as a ghostly invisible scythe swung.

The lantern also clicked shut.

"An inferior soul."

It sounded like gravel scraping against a tombstone.

"But it's the first one I've collected tonight."

The black fog rippled, and many silhouettes could be vaguely seen emerging.

The vicious undead mistress, the howling wandering soul, the ghostly knight... just to name a few.

The sea breeze blew, and darkness swept across the quiet sea surface, swallowing up the giant beasts on the bottom of the sea and rushing toward the land.

Far away, the lights of Bilgewater began to fade.

Lower town, inside the tavern.

Huo Jixing's heart trembled, as if he sensed something, he immediately quit meditation, stood up and came to the window.

Red-gold flames filled the pupils, reflecting the boundless black mist.

"Soul-eating Night!"

"Coming so soon?"

Huo Jixing whispered softly. According to the previously calculated distance, the black fog should not sweep through Bilgewater now.

But the current scene forced him to accept the cruel reality.

"Soul-eating Night!"

Huo Jixing's actions attracted the attention of everyone in the tavern.

They all looked away from the wine glasses or conversations in their hands and looked into the distance.

Looking across the window in surprise, he saw the black fog rolling in under the dark night.

"Get ready to fight!"

Huo Jixing let out a breath, suppressed his inner thoughts, and looked back at the people behind him who had mixed reactions.

The atmosphere in the tavern instantly became tense, and everyone began to move and organize their weapons and equipment.

Graves blew out the smoke from his mouth casually, holding the cigar between his teeth, and reached out to brush the extremely shiny fate.

Red shotgun shells were placed on the table of the bar, and he loaded them into the belt one by one with his movements.

Drizzt sat beside him, shuffling and cutting the cards with his hands, trying to decipher the omens of fate.

After dealing cards several times in succession, his expression became more solemn, and the fate he was once familiar with became restless at this moment.

Yosip was carefully wiping the sea serpent-shaped Abyss Crown for fear of damaging this legendary runic item.

Although the Crown of the Abyss has suffered from the erosion of time, the effects of rune magic have been weakened.

But after Huo Jixing's test, it can still bring a certain amount of magic damage to the owner.

Of course, the most important magical effect of the Abyss Crown, which commands sea beasts, has been affected by the years and can only be used reluctantly.

Huo Jixing has tested that he can command up to three sea beasts to take action.

It is far inferior to the overwhelming scenes of sea beasts on the cave paintings.

After careful consideration, Huo Jixing decided to give it to Yosip to use as a life-saving trump card for Leiser's defense secret base.

Yosip was very happy to get the Abyss Crown.

He is a mystic himself, coming from a medium-sized occult school in the Noxus Empire.

With the Abyss Crown in his hand and his own strength, he felt that he should be able to survive this soul-eating night safely.

The black mist surged, like a giant beast with teeth and claws, climbing onto the docks of Bilgewater.

Many of the Leiser Guard Corps soldiers in the tavern had quickly finished wearing their equipment.

The Noxian weapon in his hand shone with a biting cold light in the dark night, reflecting the firm eyes and the hard lines of the armor.

They are all ready to fight for their lives!
