The red moon returns

Chapter 221 Survivors

His eyes quickly glanced around the cabin corridor.

There was actually light in the sunken ship. Looking up, the top of the cabin was covered with glowing seaweed, and the green fluorescence illuminated the empty cabin.

There was no one in the corridor, and all the deep divers on the entire ship seemed to have run out to fight. The cabin was silent, but such a quiet environment made Lin Qi feel uneasy.

I couldn't care less about being nervous, I had to find the target as soon as possible.

Lin Qi's mind was spinning rapidly.

From the dying resonance of the silenced Mark, it can be seen that after Princess Chloe handed the gem to the Deep One, the Deep One was preparing to leave Rhine, which means that this Deep One tribe is very likely to come here for this purpose. Yes, other actions are just following the trend.

If this guess is true, then there is a high probability that such an important thing will be personally controlled by the tribal leader. As a tribal leader, it should be normal for him to choose the most comfortable room in the sunken ship to live in.

So...the captain's cabin?

With a thought in his heart, his body immediately started to move. Lin Qi turned around and ran towards the captain's cabin.

No, no, still no.

Lin Qi disappeared, rolled forward silently, and slipped in through the crack in the door. While rolling, he looked around to confirm that there was no one in the captain's cabin.

What kind of hobby is this? Put this thing on the table.

It was so eye-catching that Lynch quickly shook his head to control his imagination.

There must be people living in this cabin at ordinary times.

Safety.

In other words, there may be other tribal leaders or commanders who let wizards or priests occupy the best environment just out of respect?

There were large areas of dried blood outside the door, as well as signs of being forcibly broken open. It seemed that there had been a fierce struggle when the ship sank. However, the good thing was that the damaged door could not be locked. Lynch leaned against the door and took several deep breaths. After calming down, he pushed it lightly with his pistol, and the heavy wooden door creaked and slowly opened a crack.

But shocking.

Ding.

Such a strange room should be the residence of tribal religious people. Lynch immediately thought of the white-haired old deep diver who just took the lead in rushing out, or the enemy who took the lead in reciting the declaration. This room must be occupied by them.

In the middle of the room, there were several daggers inserted into the long table covered with a huge chart. The chart was also in tatters. There were several pale skulls scattered on the table, each with their mouths wide open and their dark eyes staring straight into the sky. He stared at the intruding Lin Qi.

Things in the room were turned over in a mess. Torn uniforms and navigation equipment were piled in the corner of the room. The glass cabinet door against the wall was smashed into pieces. All the wine bottles and collections inside were swept away, leaving only a little debris. .

In the middle of the table, there is a large copper basin. The basin is filled with a strange green liquid. There is no flame underneath, but the liquid is bubbling and bubbling. From time to time, a few small fish bones turn up inside, exuding a strange smell. breath.

Lynch flicked out a penny coin and made a crashing sound when it hit the floor. At the same time, he held his breath and listened. There was still silence in the cabin, only the sound of coins rolling on the ground.

A strong fishy smell hit my face. This was the typical smell of deep divers, and it became so strong in a closed environment.

There were patches of dried mucus all over the ground, exuding a fishy smell. They should be bodily fluids dripping from the residents.

Lynch quickly searched the room but found nothing.

When he visited the ship of the Church of the Night and the cargo ship of the Federation of Commerce, Lynch had a general understanding of the ship structure of this era, so he found the thick captain's cabin door without much effort.

But in fact, skulls are not the only weird things. There are many weird things in the room, such as shriveled dead fish, huge scales, dried water plants, sharp fish bones, and many unknown bits and pieces, one on the left and one on the right. Pieces were scattered in the captain's cabin.

Lynch felt like he had entered a medieval wizard's room, and felt that everything was so weird. But what was even more weird was that he even found a blond doll beside the bed. The doll was very delicate, but when he saw it, The first thing that came to mind was the scene of a strong fish-headed man holding a doll.

Then go take a look at the first mate's room, which is also a very good room on the ship.

Boom.

The entire sunken ship shook again, causing Lynch to shake for a while, but he barely managed to stand still. It seemed that the battle outside was getting more intense. I don’t know how long the apostles in yellow can last, but they must be prepared for the worst.

Lin Qi did not dare to delay, and finally checked the captain's room again, and immediately left the captain's room decisively.

Before leaving, he didn't forget to pick up his own penny.

I am avoiding leaving traces, but I am not reluctant to leave.

There was still no sound in the corridor, which made Lynch feel relieved. It seemed that the deep divers were really out in force, and one would not suddenly jump out and attack him.

Maintaining his lurking state and running at full speed in the corridor, Lynch changed his approach this time and relied directly on the silencer, kicked open the door to the first officer's room, and rolled in.

There is no sound as a warning, and even if there are enemies inside, they will be caught off guard.

However, the situation inside made Lynch know what it meant to be caught off guard.

Because the first mate's cabin had been completely emptied, a large hole was dug in the middle of the cabin, and Lynch almost fell straight into it.

He barely stood firm by the hole, and then broke into a cold sweat. This place was weirder than the captain's cabin.

Green liquid was used to draw a glowing green five-pointed star around the hole. The liquid flowed along a fixed trajectory on the flat ground, and strange bubbles continued to appear on the surface. Lynch immediately thought of the captain's cabin. cauldron.

There is a human head placed on each of the five corners of the five-pointed star. There is a cluster of green flames burning on the top of the head. The flames twist and jump from time to time, emitting a strange shimmer.

The heads have begun to rot, but it can still be seen that a round hole has been opened at the back of each head. The brain tissue and flesh and blood inside have disappeared, as if they have been sucked away, leaving only one Empty skull.

However, even so, after Lin Qi rushed in, these heads still moved their eyebrows and looked like they were wailing in despair. Lin Qi even heard faint moans of pain in his ears. The low moans penetrated his soul and filled his heart. A cold despair arose for no reason.

However, this was just the beginning. Standing at the entrance of the cave, Lin Qi saw the scene inside the cave for the first time.

The lower decks were dug through and opened up through the bottom of the ship. Seawater filled the bottom cabin, and inside were floating the bodies of more than twenty sailors with their heads punctured. And a large group of gray gel-like substance was wrapping these corpses. The corpses had been severely decomposed, and some even had only white bones left.

It was like opening the door to kill. The scene of eating like this made Lynch almost vomit on the spot. He covered his mouth and stumbled back a few steps before barely restraining the feeling of vomiting.

Heck, this is probably where the deep divers fed the big monster just now. Walk quickly, otherwise... huh?

dang dang...

In the silent corridor behind him, there was a sudden sound of slight footsteps, which was unusually obvious in the silent environment.

Damn it.

Lynch, who was used to watching horror movies, felt like his hair was about to explode. He turned invisible and raised his gun and rolled out of the cabin. The corridor was still as dark as before, but around the corner at the end, a figure disappeared in a flash.

Judging by the body shape and features, he was not a deep diver, definitely a human being, and there was no fishy smell, so he couldn't be wrong.

More importantly, this figure is obviously a child of about ten years old, and a little girl.

Thinking of the doll in the captain's cabin, Lynch suddenly realized that she was a passenger on the cargo ship, so her toys were in the captain's cabin. After the shipwreck, she hid because of her small size, and now she came out while the Deep Ones went out to meet the enemy?

No, let’s catch up and take a look. If this is true, she might know the location of the leader of these deep divers.

Gritting his teeth, Lynch held up his cane and raised his gun, and chased down the corridor. At the end of the corridor was the sailor's entertainment room, and the ajar door was still shaking slightly.

There was no glowing algae inside, and it was pitch black. Lynch pondered for a moment, and then pushed the door open with his cane.

The fishy smell inside is very light. It seems that no deep divers occupy this room. Has the child been hiding here for the past few days?
After hesitating for a while, Lynch took off his top hat, hung it on his cane, and handed it in along the crack of the door. The next moment, a sound of wind fell from the sky, a clay pot hit the hat, and at the same time, there was a childish cry of a girl.

Lynch pushed open the door, pinched the other person's arm, pushed the other person to the ground, and then let out a long breath.

It's really a human being, a little girl who looks about twelve or thirteen years old. She has fair skin and looks unbelievably beautiful.
