The blue of the sea in the distance was originally visible, but now it is completely gone, and countless mouths with neat teeth have emerged from the surface.

[What?! So many! This is comparable to the British Incident!]

We are very sorry, but the church does not yet have a pastor stationed in Japan, so we have to urgently transfer one from Malaysia.

"There are no priests in Japan!" the captain cried out. "How can there be no priests! Please, don't abandon us! I am a devout believer!"

At this point, the captain broke down, pleading with tears streaming down his face.

【Although we would love to send someone over immediately, please hold on.】

Just then, the clicking sound of teeth clinking stopped.

The next moment, laughter, like the sound of an old television set dropping frames, came one after another from the strange mouths that emerged from the sea.

Hahahahahahahaha—

Hearing the piercing laughter, all the crew members collapsed in fear, clutching their heads and screaming on the ground: "Aaaaaah!"

"God, save me!"

"Monsters! So many monsters!"

With a splash, a Rahmu emerged from the dark mud, resembling an arthropod, but with sharp, needle-like limbs that trod on the surface of the water.

It has a humanoid torso, insect-like limbs, no eyes or ears, and a vertical mouth that fills its entire head.

"Hahahaha—humans! Humans! We are the new humans! We are the new humans created by Mother! We will destroy the old humans who occupy our ecological niche! Hahahaha—"

"What is that thing! Why can it talk!" The captain, clutching his phone whose communication had been disconnected, stared in despair at the monster that seemed to defy gravity and stood on the black mud.

His ship had sailed through more than a dozen countries and encountered monsters no less than fifty times, but he had never encountered a talking monster.

"Everyone, get your guns out and equip yourselves! We can only save ourselves now!" the captain shouted after a brief period of despair. After despair reached its end, anger over the monster that threatened his life came.

"Yes! We have to save ourselves! Everyone, arm yourselves!" the first mate shouted. Even though his crotch was already soaked with fear, the will to survive overcame all his terror.

"Doing nothing means only waiting to die!"

"Understood, Captain Jaden, First Mate Jackson!"

"I'll go open the warehouse right now!" Second Officer Leoz rushed towards the warehouse in a flurry of activity: "Follow me and move the weapons!"

US ocean-going freighters are legally equipped with some light weapons, which are used to defend against piracy. Although pirates are less common now, they are still present. Sometimes, illegal armed groups in war-torn regions will target ocean-going freighters.

Therefore, the sailors on the ship were basically armed militiamen, or even veterans.

Crates of weapons were taken out of the warehouse and tossed to the sailors, whose eyes were bloodshot. Even the cooks and cleaners were equipped with rifles, and the captain and first mate were even armed with machine guns.

"Shit! We're short-handed! I should have brought those bastards back to work on vacation!" Captain Jaden cursed.

The number of people on the cargo ship is currently the lowest in a year. This is mainly because the previous ship's route crossed two oceans, causing many crew members to want to take leave. Currently, the entire ship, including the cooks and cleaners, has only about forty people.

But thankfully, those bastards took leave, thus escaping a disaster.

"Hahahaha! New humans, we are new humans!"

"We're going to wipe out all the old humans here before Mom arrives, hahaha."

"Old humans, there are many old humans over there!"

"I hate anything the old humans made, hahaha, kill them all, hahaha."

"No! Let them kill each other, hahaha, that's how we prove we're intelligent new humans loved by Mom, hahaha."

One after another, the Rahmu emerged from the dark sea and stood on the surface. Some of the Rahmu even grew wings similar to those of bats. They were laughing and communicating with each other, as if celebrating their birth.

They are different individuals, but they do not have an independent self. They are like an ant colony, with Tiamat as the queen. Their only purpose in existence is to obey the will of humans and Tiamat.

Their interactions with each other are merely instinctive imitations of humans and do not represent that they truly possess self-awareness and intelligence.

After leaping out of the dark sea, they sensed the nearest human presence and rushed towards the ocean cargo ship like water spiders. Their numbers were more than ten times the number of humans on the ship.

Others flapped their wings and flew over, laughing loudly.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Rahmu surged towards the ocean freighter from the water and the sky like a swarm of locusts, the magic of the Sea of ​​Life making the dark water glow red.

The magic of the entire sea rose, turning the sky black and red. Sunlight shone through the black and red sky, making the whole scene look like being in hell.

"Aaaaaah! Demons! They're demons! We can't possibly win!" The chef had already broken down before even firing the first shot, seeing the monsters swarming in like locusts. He dropped his pistol and scrambled toward the cabin.

Upon seeing this, Captain Jaden burst into curses: "Coward! You're a damn coward! Trapped at sea and unable to move, you're going to die sooner or later! You might as well bravely kill a few monsters! Maybe you can even go to heaven after you die!"

If everyone were to collapse in this situation, then certain death would be inevitable.

He violently ripped the cross off his neck and held it high.

"The gods are watching us! The gods only favor the brave! No matter what wrong things you have done in the past! At least now, your courage to fight the monsters will definitely make the gods take notice!"

Making mistakes isn't scary! What's scary is not daring to face them and not daring to make amends!

"Show me your courage as men!" Jaden roared at the trembling crew.

The method to gain the favor of the gods has long been known everywhere. He had even achieved 'source awakening' in South America. Unfortunately, he was once a U.S. Marine and unknowingly made a mistake with his unit in the Middle East.

After realizing that what he had done was not just, he left the navy and used his demobilization pay to rent a cargo ship to start a long-distance cargo business. Later, his business grew bigger and bigger, and that's how he got his current cargo ship.

Most of the sailors on his ship were retired marines. Many of them had to leave the service because of injuries, while others, like him, could not accept that the army they had joined was an unjust army.

Perhaps it is because he participated in an unjust war that he is not favored by the gods, but he can choose to become a righteous person from now on.

Past mistakes need to be made up for tenfold. The path is right under our feet, and the gods will never deny everything because of the mistakes of ordinary people.

First Mate Jackson roared, "I've heard it! Whenever a great disaster occurs, the gods are watching! Don't be a coward!" Even now, his hands were trembling so much that he could barely hold the gun handle.

"Yes! God is watching over us! I am a devout Protestant!"

"We can't let the demons look down on us!"

"If you die fighting a demon, you'll definitely go to heaven!"

"What's there to be afraid of in death! The Bible says that if you die fighting the devil, you can go to heaven!"

"Fight these monsters! We must kill at least one!"

When faced with a desperate situation and having no other choice, coupled with the inspirational speeches from the captain and first mate, faith became the only thing that helped everyone fight against their fear. Even though everyone was still afraid, there was a hint of madness in their eyes.

Just then, a piercing clanging sound came from the water; it was the sound of Rahmu climbing on the side of the ship.

The piercing sound of the wind grew closer and closer; it was Rahmu, flying in the sky, who was the first to arrive above the ocean freighter.

"Hahaha, old humans, old humans! Hahaha." Rahmu didn't attack immediately, but instead landed on the container with a crack and laughed eerily.

"Let them kill each other, let them kill each other. We'll let you go as long as you kill one of the old humans."

After saying that, he rushed towards the fully armed men at great speed. They couldn't react at all. They only heard a few cracking sounds of bones breaking, and several people were knocked down and rolled on the ground.

"Ahhhhhh—" Some of the people who were knocked to the ground had collapsed shoulders, some had twisted thighs, and some had collapsed chests. They were unable to scream and their mouths were open in a ferocious manner, with blood gushing out of their mouths.

"If you don't obey, I'll kill you all, hahaha." Rahmu was already on another container, one of its forelimbs piercing a sailor's chest and lifting him up.

"Gulp..." The sailor stared in horror at the red and black spikes piercing his chest from behind. His lungs had been punctured, and he could not make a sound.

"Hahaha, kill them all if they don't obey."

"Kill them all, kill them all."

"To kill each other."

"They'll kill each other if they don't obey, hahaha."

One after another, the Rahmu fell from mid-air onto the containers, their heads, with only mouths, twisting and turning, some even sticking out their tongues and laughing.

Clang clang clang clang... At this moment, a sound came from the guardrail on the edge of the cargo ship, and the entire edge of the hull was covered with Rahmu's sharp limbs.

The entire ship was surrounded by Rahmu.

"Gulp..." Jaden's teeth were already bleeding from biting them. He swallowed the blood in his mouth and used the flesh on both sides of his mouth to stimulate the pain so that it outweighed the fear.

"Will killing each other spare us?" First Mate Jackson asked in a trembling voice.

"Jaxson! What are you saying?" Jaden stared at him in disbelief.

The other sailors also swallowed nervously, seemingly tempted.

“That’s right, hahaha, old humans, those who survive killing each other will be spared.” A Rahmu laughed, twisting its head which had only a vertical mouth.

"Hahahaha." Rahmu's collective laughter was like countless bees flapping their wings, making everyone on the ship want to kneel down and vomit.

"Fuck!" First mate Jacson roared, holding a machine gun and pulling the trigger at Rahmu on the container, and flames instantly burst from the muzzle.

Da da da da da da——

"You think you can fool us with the lies of mere demons! Old humans, I'll teach you all to die!"

Golden bullets kept hitting the Rahmu, sparks flying as the bullets collided with their casings.

However, firearms were not entirely useless against them, still leaving bullet holes in their exoskeletons. But the holes were shallow, barely allowing the bullets to penetrate the skin and not enough to cause fatal damage.

"Fire!" Captain Jaden shouted as he reacted, pulling the trigger of his machine gun, which spewed fire continuously.

Da da da da da—

Da da da da da—

As the first shot rang out, the sailors instinctively pulled the triggers, and rifle bullets continued to fire at Rahmu.

There are just too many Rahmu; they can hit him no matter which direction they shoot from.

Although Rahmu have no sense of pain, they can still be knocked back by the kinetic energy of bullets, and bullets that hit Rahmu in the mouth can even penetrate their heads.

However, their heads are not their weakness, or rather, they have no fatal weakness at all. They have no heart, no brain, and not even a core. They can only be killed by breaking them.

"You...you old humans, since you won't obey, then kill you all!" Rahmu, whose head had been pierced, spoke, and then lunged at a sailor.

"Thud!" The sailor's chest was pierced by a sharp forelimb, then another forelimb pierced his thigh, hissing—

"Ah ah ah ah ah--"

Red paint splattered in all directions, even splashing onto the neighbor's wall.

"Gosen!" The sailor, whose face was splashed with water, was so frightened that he wet himself.
