Why is my anime art style so weird?

They've gone mad! They've all gone mad!!

This is the last page of records.

This page was written directly with someone's finger dipped in blood.

The scarlet, illegible handwriting seemed to tell the story of the madness of the last night.

It appears that the people on this fishing boat have found something on Starfall Island.

As a result, a group of Okinawans secretly banded together, seemingly intending to kill the others and take all the spoils for themselves.

As it turned out, another group discovered it beforehand.

The two groups engaged in a brutal shootout.

As for the final result...

Xu Ming glanced at the two bodies lying in the driver's cab, both of whom had perished together.

This fierce battle, which originated from greed, will likely have no winners.

As for what they found on Starfall Island, Xu Ming guessed it was either gold and silver jewelry or cursed items that would drive people mad.

It's definitely not something good.

Chapter 378 Corpses Laden the Field (Bonus Chapter)

Xu Ming flipped through the ship's log for a while, but found that he couldn't find any useful clues, so he left the bridge.

It stinks so badly here. The stench of corpses, bird droppings, the smell of the sea, and mold all mix together, making it feel like a highly toxic biological weapon.

According to the ship's log, it seems that it will be some time before we arrive at Starfall Island.

Xu Ming decided to go down to the cabin to see if he could find a slightly cleaner place to rest.

Xu Ming had just stepped out of the driver's seat.

A strong sea breeze blew in.

Immediately afterwards, there was a loud crash, and the crane boom suddenly came loose and swung over in a flash!

Along with it, a dark shadow was also moved over.

When the crane arm swung completely over, Xu Ming saw it clearly.

There was a badly decomposed corpse hanging from the hook!

The corpse swung towards Xu Ming with the hook, making it look as if it were lunging at him.

Xu Ming was startled and instinctively picked up a crowbar and smashed it.

Bah!

The body was smashed in two and flew into the sea.

Xu Ming shook his head; there were far too many corpses on this fishing boat.

He went down the gangway to the deck and then entered the cabin through the door next to the superstructure.

As soon as I entered the cabin, another wave of stench hit me.

One corpse was nailed to the wall, and another corpse, its head severed, lay on the ground.

Xu Ming covered his mouth and nose, enduring the stench, and scanned the cabin.

This appears to be the restaurant and activity room of a fishing boat, with a huge television set hanging on one wall, though the screen is cracked.

Behind the restaurant was a small room, which, judging from its furnishings, appeared to be the kitchen. A stronger stench emanated from it, like a slaughterhouse in summer.

Xu Ming stood at a distance and glanced inside.

Among a pile of rotten and spoiled food lay three or four mangled corpses.

The kitchen floor was completely covered in black blood plasma mixed with fragments of internal organs, and you could even vaguely see some strangely shaped maggots wriggling inside.

Oh!

A hissing sound came from the television, and the broken screen suddenly lit up and began to play images.

In the video, a short man covered in blood and wounds stumbles in from outside.

He rushed into the kitchen and grabbed a sharp cleaver.

A large, fat man with a fierce face and holding a harpoon followed closely behind him into the cabin.

The two seemed to harbor a deep-seated hatred for each other, their faces contorted with rage as they swung their weapons at each other's vitals, seemingly shouting "Die!"

The two fought fiercely, but before a victor could be determined, several more people rushed into the cabin. The bloodthirsty groups then clashed, hacking and slashing at everything in their path.

Blood, limbs, and internal organs splattered in the cramped compartment.

The scene was silent, but Xu Ming could almost hear cries of despair and resentment.

Blood was splattered all over the ground, walls, and even overhead.

In the end, only two people remained in the melee. One pierced the other's heart, but was also slit in the throat by the other's counterattack.

Both men collapsed and died.

The chaotic battle ultimately ended in mutual destruction.

The television screen suddenly went dark.

After a while, Xu Ming left the restaurant.

He was about to walk towards the crew quarters at the back.

A strange sound suddenly came from the deck in front of the cockpit.

Glug glug!

It sounds like the sound of water boiling in a kettle.

Xu Ming walked over, holding the crowbar.

Several metal covers, each the size of a door panel, on the deck kept pushing upwards, as if something inside was trying to crawl out.

Xu Ming's hand involuntarily began to grip the crowbar tightly, and several veins bulged on the back of his hand.

With his other hand, he subtly reached into his pocket and pulled out his phone.

Beneath these covers were originally fish holds used by fishing boats to store fish, but now it's unknown what kind of monster lies beneath them.

Bah!

The cover closest to the cockpit suddenly flipped open, and a large amount of blood-red water gushed out from under the cabin like a fountain.

A strong smell of blood, along with the stench of rotting things and the fishy smell, hit me.

Immediately afterwards, one lid after another was overturned, and large amounts of blood surged onto the deck.

Along with the blood, several highly decomposed corpses also rushed up.

Soon, blood and corpses surged forward, and Xu Ming quickly retreated to the ladder, watching the corpses slide down his feet in the blood.

These corpses were also covered with wounds from being slashed by sharp weapons. Two of the corpses even had their faces cleaved apart, making them unrecognizable.

Wow!

Blood gushed out of the deck, but the body remained behind.

Looking at these stinking, gruesome corpses, Xu Ming couldn't help but frown.

He cautiously activated his spiritual vision, noticing that only a trace of resentment remained on the corpses.

However, this is the normal situation.

After all, it was a case of killing each other, and it would be abnormal if the corpses of those who died unjustly did not harbor resentment.

However, these seem to be just ordinary corpses.

Xu Ming originally wanted to throw these corpses into the sea so that they could return to nature.

But after thinking about it, I decided against it.

Who knows if these corpses might be hiding some deadly germs or something?

It's best to avoid it to be on the safe side.

Xu Ming carefully avoided the corpses and made his way to the crew quarters at the back.

The cabin's waterproof door was only partially open, seemingly blocked by something.

Xu Ming picked up a crowbar and struck it hard, and the waterproof door opened with a snap.

A strong musty smell, accompanied by a faint stench, rushed out from inside.

Xu Ming shone his phone into the room.

The room is small, with a row of wardrobes and four bunk beds, accommodating a total of eight people.

Strangely, Xu Ming did not find the body.

Just to be on the safe side, Xu Ming carefully searched the area with his phone, even looking under the bed, but he couldn't find a single body.

As for that row of wardrobes...

These wardrobes are no more than 1.5 meters high and no more than 20 or 30 centimeters wide. They are just square pillars, making it extremely difficult to hide a child inside, let alone an adult.

Unless the other party knows how to shrink their bones.

After the inspection, Xu Ming shook his head with a wry smile.

I've really been driven a bit neurotic by this ghost ship; the first thing I do when I arrive at a new place is look for corpses.

At this moment, Xu Ming noticed an open notebook on the table with a pen tucked inside.

It's as if the owner of the notebook suddenly had to rush off and didn't even have time to close the notebook.

The notebook pages were yellowed, and on the two open pages were several drops of blood that had turned dark red.

Chapter 379 The Truth About the Ghost Ship

Xu Ming picked it up casually and flipped it open.

It appears to be a crew member's diary.

The preceding content was basically similar to the nautical logs that Xu Ming had seen before, consisting of tedious tasks such as sailing and fishing.
